Chapter 2: Spoils of War

"Hey, hey." Leberblume's hand returned to Utena's shoulder. "You can pass out once we get inside, alright?"

Utena spat another glob of puke and blood onto the puddle at her feet.

"I... did I really just..."

"Damn right you did." Leberblume took her wrist and tugged her forward. "No second thoughts now!"

Utena shambled after her, senses blurring as her head swirled with thoughts. "I didn't even want... Wait, my mother! Is she-"

"Fuck." Leberblume stopped in her tracks. "I knew I was forgetting something. I'll go untie her once I get you to my partner."

"Y-You just left her like that?"

"Look, I was in a hurry to bail you out! And I can't just leave you right now, can I? So really this is your fault."

"Wh-WHAT?" The absurdity jolted Utena back to her senses. "I-I-I, Y-Y-Y-"

Leberblume released her wrist and sized her up. "Great, looks like you're stable enough to take things from here. I'll see you in a bit!"

Without waiting for a response, Leberblume summoned another portal and stepped through it.

Utena blinked and looked around. There really wasn't anywhere else to go, was there?

She made her way to the door of the building, opened it, and stepped inside. It was a massive place, and the geometry was as strange inside as outside. She found a bench and slumped down in it.

Her transformation fell away, and her normal clothes returned. Was that a problem? Her stomach felt... less bad than earlier, but still not great. But... she was getting a clearer sense of her magic, and it felt like it was still active, slowly knitting her innards back together.

She'd been stabbed by Magia Magenta. A giddy feeling emerged - she'd joined the Tres Magia in violent dance, and... survived.

And in the process... She looked again at the thing in her hand. She'd ripped out Sulfur's eye. The thought was sickening, but within the sick feeling, there was something so delightful.

What was wrong with her?

A door swung open. Was Leberblume back already? No, it wasn't the way she'd come in. The door lead deeper into the building.

Another girl skipped out. Like Leberblume, she looked close to Utena's age, but her demeanor was... very different. Venalita floated behind her.

"Hey!" the girl called out. "You're Hiiragi Utena, right?"

"Y... Yes." Utena stood, still clutching Sulfur's eye. "A-And you are...?"

The girl struck a pose. "I'm Loco Musica! The best idol around. Welcome to Enormita!"

"Enormita...?" Compared to Leberblume, Loco Musica seemed a lot more friendly and less creepy, but that was scary in its own way. "I thought this was... Nacht Base?"

"Enormita is our organization," Venalita clarified. "Nacht Base is our headquarters. We work to make the world more... interesting."

"O-Oh," Utena said. "I... hadn't heard about all this."

"You hadn't heard of Loco?" Loco pouted. "I mean... sure, Leber and I only just came to your city. But still! You should pay more attention to the news!"

"I'll... keep that in mind..." Utena conceded.

"Great!" Loco pulled out her phone. "Now, I've got to introduce you to one of my brilliant- ...huh? Oh, this must be for you!"

Loco turned around her phone. The screen showed a photo of Utena's mother, still naked but no longer restrained, trying to cover herself while looking fearfully towards the camera.

"Th... thanks?" Utena was glad her mother was safe, at least, but...

"So, it looks like everything went great!" Loco flopped into a nearby chair. "And as long as you keep helping us, we won't have to cause her any more trouble. You aren't gonna make any more fuss about it, right?"

"I..." Everything felt so cold again. "I, uh..."

"Now, now." Venalita flew up to Utena. "Our dear newbie has been through a lot today, and I'm sure she'll behave when the time comes. But there's no need to fret over things like that now. We've just gained a new teammate, and in her first battle, she dealt the first serious wound to one of Tres Magia! This is a time to celebrate!"

"The first serious wound..." Utena looked again at the eye in her hand.

Loco leaped to her feet. "Oh! That's Magia Sulfur's, right? You kept it, that's great!"

"It... is?" Utena asked.

"Yeah, we've got a whole collection of trophies!" Loco leaped forward and snatched the eye from Utena. "This is pretty simple to deal with - eyes are so small, you know. We just need a jar, and... Vena, where's the formaldehyde?"

"I left it in the kitchen," Venalita replied.

"Perfect! I'll be right back!" Loco dashed away.

Utena stared blankly in Loco's direction, then turned back to Venalita. "I-Is that true? That you have a lot of those... trophies?"

"Oh, yeah, dozens of 'em," Venalita confirmed. "Wanna see?"

"I, ah..." At the mental image, Utena's underwear felt increasingly tight. This was... this was so wrong, unthinkable, and yet...!

"Come on, it's this way!" The fairy floated towards another door, and Utena felt her legs straighten and carry her along.

The two of them passed through one room, then the next. Before long, the pungent odor made their destination impossible to overlook.

"Here we are," Venalita announced. "The crown jewel of our hideout!"

Utena stepped inside, and shivered as she took in the sight. Shelves lined with glass vessels of varying sizes, all bearing pieces of flesh within. Eyes, ears, fingers, toes, hands, feet, arms, legs...

Quiet footsteps followed the pair into the room. "Should've known I'd find you here. You like what you see?"

Leberblume. Or Leber, Loco had called her.

"I-I... These are all from magical girls?" Utena asked.

"Every one of 'em." Leber tapped a case containing a matched pair of hands. "There's no challenge in chopping up some rando, but a magical girl? Those bits are worth holding onto."

Utena swallowed. There was no way every body part a magical girl lost became a trophy, right? Loco had been excited to see that she'd held onto the eye, but she hadn't just taken it for granted. And plenty of injuries wouldn't even leave the part intact in the first place, whether or not the assailant got the chance to bring it home. If this was how many trophies had made it here, how many more magical girls had Enormita maimed?

A sharp voice interrupted Utena's thoughts. "There you are!"

Loco Musica pranced into the room, holding a jar aloft. The eye inside looked somewhat more spherical than earlier.

"Ugh," Leber groaned. "There goes our nice, quiet tour."

"Can it, Leber!" Loco snapped. Her gaze returned to Utena, and she turned the jar to do the same. "Check it out! We'll still need to make a plaque, but... Oh, yeah, you don't have a villain name yet, right?"

A villain name. She... was a villain now, wasn't she. And one of the really bad ones. "I-I... hadn't thought of one yet."

Loco shrugged. "Well, we'll make it when you come up with one. Wouldn't want to have to credit it to 'Hiiragi Utena', you know?"

Utena shuddered at the thought - and Loco giggled. She'd... have to come up with something. Whoever she'd become when she was fighting Tres Magia, that wasn't Hiiragi Utena.

Wait, when did she start thinking as if she was going to stick with this? She couldn't just keep carving pieces off of magical girls. She needed to find a way to escape, and bring her mother, and...

And they'd catch her. If they fought, how many pieces of her would end up in this room?

Or... she could just. Go with it. It was... fun, wasn't it? Magical girls were supposed to face danger, that was what made them so special. Would it be so bad to be one of the dangers that defined them?

Her eyes fell on the closest case. She hadn't noticed the plaques at first, but each display had one.

FEET OF MAGIA VERDE

SEIZED BY LOCO MUSICA

Next to the words was a small photo. A green-clad magical girl, facing the camera with a bold grin.

"Ooh, that's one of mine!" Loco called out, suddenly right behind her. "I blew off both her legs, but her feet stayed in one piece. ...Two pieces? One piece each!"

"A-Ah..." Utena shivered again. The same feet Magia Verde had stood with while taking the photo... now preserved here. The two states of the feet felt so disparate, so irreconcilable, yet the dissonance gripped her, tugging at her body as she gasped for breath.

Next to the case was a small jar, the same size as the one Loco had used for Sulfur's eye. Inside lay a penis, nestled against a pair of balls.

GENITALS OF MAGIA CRIMSON

SEIZED BY LEBERBLUME

The girl in the photo looked timid, but excited. Her hair and outfit were bright red.

A raspy laugh announced Leberblume's presence. "That was a fun one. Should've seen her face."

Utena's underwear felt tight again. She... she shouldn't keep going, but she couldn't look away, she had to see more...

One case stood taller than the rest. Two full legs, propped up by plastic supports. At the top sat the hips, rear, and nethers of their owner, the crotch marked with deep purple pubic hair.

LOWER HALF OF MAGIA INDIGO

SEIZED BY LORD ENORME

Utena bent her hips, and the movement was enough. Her insides pounded, ecstasy shot through her, and a sticky stain began to spread through the front of her underwear. She gasped and clutched at her skirt, trying to keep it from making contact.

"So you really liked that one." Leber's hand clasped her shaking shoulder, and Utena let out a shrill noise.

"I-I-I-I-I-"

Leber glanced back towards the exit. "How about we get you to the showers, huh?"

Utena buried her face in her hands. Right now, showering sounded less preferable than drowning.

"Oh for fuck's sake. Am I gonna have to- ...I am not carrying you right now. Loco, gimme a hand."

Loco and Leber each grabbed one of Utena's wrists and tugged her towards the door. She stumbled, then caught herself.

"I-I-I-I can walk! Please let me go!"

Leber released the wrist she held, and Loco followed suit. "Good, that would've been a pain. Just follow us, then."

The two of them lead the way, while Utena slunk on after them. Venalita hovered alongside her, wearing its usual eerie smile.

"Th... that plaque mentioned Lore Enorme," Utena got out. "Who's that?"

"She's our leader!" Loco remarked. "She's really tough. She brought in like half of those trophies."

"She's scary, too," Leber added. "Don't talk back to her. Definitely don't cream your pants around her."

Utena reddened and looked away. "Y-You two seem pretty scary already..."

"Scary?" Loco asked. "I'm a beautiful pop idol! And Leber's just a nerd."

Leber scoffed. "Just a nerd? You didn't see how I greeted our newbie."

"I saw your texts!" Loco retorted. "You were bragging about it being like a horror movie!"

"Wh-" Leber stopped walking. "Hey! Don't tell her that!"

Utena's eyes jumped between the pair. This was... less intimidating, but still scary in its own way.

Before long, they reached the changing room. Loco removed her jacket, then looked at Utena expectantly. "Come on! What are you waiting for?"

Utena's eyes went to the floating fairy. "Is... Venalita sticking around?"

"I already have videos of all three of you transforming," Venalita replied.

Utena looked away and tried not to think about that. Over such a short time, she'd fallen in so deep.

She stepped out of her shoes, then took off her shirt and bra. The rest was... a bigger issue. She carefully removed her skirt, then stared down at the wet spot on her leggings. She took a breath to steady herself, then dropped them, followed by the sticky panties beneath them. She did her best to keep the mess's source out of view, but there was only so much she could do.

"I can get those washed for you," Venalita offered. "You'll want a change of clothes, right?"

At this point, the alternative seemed worse. "O-Okay. Thanks..."

Venalita took the clothes and flew off. Utena shivered.

Leberblume stepped into view, fully nude. "So you do have a dick. You didn't have one when you transformed, did you?"

"I-I don't think so," Utena admitted.

"Wait, your bits change when you transform?" Loco advanced, a towel around her waist. "That's so cool! Let me see!"

Utena clamped both hands over her groin. "N-No way!"

"Hey, newbie, did you forget?" Leber stepped close enough for her dick to press against Utena's thigh. "You're not in a position to say no to things. Show us your damn pussy."

Utena's face flushed. "I-I-I..."

"Exactly!" Loco grinned. "Even transformed, it's not like you could fight us and win. So you'd better do what we say!"

There really wasn't anything she could do, was there? If she tried to resist... she didn't want to think about what they might do.

"T-Trans Magia..." she whispered.

This time, she didn't have any clothes to remove. Her dick withdrew into her body, and her villain outfit materialized around her.

"Leber, you were right!" Loco exclaimed. "Hey, newbie! Let me take a closer look!"

Utena's eyes darted back and forth. Was Leberblume going to keep backing her up?

"You heard her, right?" Leber reached a hand forward and peeled away the star covering Utena's right nipple, and Utena yelped and moved her left hand to cover it. "Strip. Again."

Utena shed one layer after another of the bizarre clothes she'd changed into. She'd never worn things like these before, and figuring out how they worked would have been enough challenge even without her hands shaking. At least it gave her something to think about other than the pair in front of her.

"So you know what's best for you. Good."

Leberblume advanced, backing Utena up to the wall of lockers, then slammed a hand against the wall by her right ear. Something pressed on her again - Leber's dick, but this time, it was hard.

"Now, let's see how it feels."

Warm flesh pushed its way into the hole between Utena's legs. She gasped and tried to shove Leber away, but she was too exhausted to find the strength. Leber pinned her in place, withdrawing then pushing back in.

It... some of the sensations did feel good. But it wasn't supposed to be like this.

Moans tore their way out of Utena, fiercer than she could hold back. Orgasm rippled out through her body, and Leber was shaking too, warm liquid erupting out from her and into Utena.

Eventually, the feelings died down. Utena collapsed against the wall, and Leberblume slumped onto her. After a moment, Leber extracted herself from Utena, and Utena's transformation dissipated - leaving her junk covered in three different fluids. She... transforming for a few minutes wouldn't let her get pregnant, right?

Leber's jagged grin returned. "How's that for a welcome, huh?"

Utena looked away. Her eyes fell on Loco Musica, whose face was bright red as she stared transfixed.

Leber tugged on Utena's shoulder. "Now, let's get you cleaned up for real. Then we can send you home to your dear mother. Sound good?"

Utena nodded. She did need to get clean and go home. And... Leber was right.

She wasn't in a position to say no to things.
