Chapter 132
I’d accompanied it down to the cells. Its first sight of the cage had caused it to recoil but it didn’t take much persuasion to get it to clamber in. It even slammed the door without being prompted once it realised how comfortable it was.

Its goggles blackened, I returned to the elevator just as Q spoke again.

“Artemis, for everyone else, chastity. Before you unfreeze them.”

“Yes, sir. Um… Sir?”

“Yes?”

“How? Their cocks’ll be as solid as the rest of them. With the old metal ones it shielded the area.”

Q chuckled. “Of course. You’ve not done it yet, have you?”

“No, sir. Even when I was on the receiving end, I wasn’t frozen when it went on.”

“I was there, remember. We have a water based sunblock just for this occasion. It’s only active when wet. Five to fifteen minutes of effectiveness.”

“Yes, sir. Same shelf?”

“Yes, Artemis.”

“Should we put the cops in the same chastity, sir? They won’t need to be released when it’s time for the dogs, then. Obviously use the keyed padlocks though, sir.”

“Hmmm… The cock tube is locked to the belt and it’s designed to be permanently so.”

“So there’s no way to remove our chastity? Even in the case of an emergency, sir?”

“Good point. There is an emergency release code. The fobs do not have that code, and they never will. I can issue it from here. Do it.”

“I’ll get on it right away, sir. It’s time Kowalski re-joined the land of the living, so I’ll do him before I release him. The rest of them still have a few hours left to stew, sir.”

“Very well.”

“Permission to play with him a little, sir.”

“How?”

“Scare the shit out of him with the knife demo, sir?”

Q chuckled. “I’ll grant you that… this time.”

“Oh, sir. The Lieutenant requested no prefern”

“Yes. I saw the logs. Redirect it to block one. It can reside with the standard slaves. Instruct them to say nothing… untoward to it. Withhold its vest too. It’s a blank until the end now. It requests no preferential treatment. It gets none.”

“Yes, sir. What do I tell the others?”

“The truth? He did advise you to offer them the same after all.”

“Yes, sir.”
* * *

I made sure I’d ducked below its field of vision before spraying its cock and balls with the sunblock. I could see the change instantly, so, with a quick manipulation, on with the chastity. I felt the click as the cock tube engaged.

Adjust, adjust, snap, snap, click.

I stood. “Wake up, officer. That’s the pain and discomfort you were told to expect. Stiffen your knees, I’ll release the freeze… Ooo, that rhymed. I’ll have to remember that one.”

I flipped the switch and Kowalski staggered out.

“Follow me.”

It did so without pausing.

Back at the desk, I pointed at the chair and laptop and sat opposite.

It reached for the keyboard as soon as it was seated.

“Fuck me that was agony. And you all had to endure that?”

“Most of us, yes. But, it’s short. Any remaining pain?”

It shook its head.

“Good. Now you get to learn what there is about being a pervert that’s so much fun. First of all…” I prodded my suit. “When you’re in a suit like this, it means one thing above all others. You’re a slave. A slave’s life is one of obedience above all else. That goes for you too. Also… This suit is impossible to remove. It means slavery for life.”

It stiffened in the chair. “Life? You said you’d been in it for a year but.”

“Life. Yes.” I placed a knife on the table. “You can try if you like.”

“Try what?”

“Try to cut your suit.”

“What do you mean, cut… But I’m a cop, you can’t keep me here for life! Oh fuck, the others came didn’t they? They’re in the same..”

“Yes. They’re in suits pretty much identical to yours. Try it.”

Its hand shook as it took the knife. As it sliced its wrist and the metal powder fell, it wasn’t just its hand that was shaking.

“But I’m a cop! You can’t keep me for life! I’ve… You’ll be hunted! You’ll never know peace. You’ll never be able to leave wherever this place is again and they will find it eventually!”

I laughed my ass off. “That’s the reaction I was looking for. No. I said if you’re in a suit like this.” I pointed at my chest again. “It’s for life. Yours is removable. Think of it as a little revenge for the arrest. Once your companions are released, we have a slave who’s due to have his suit removed. You can witness it as a reassurance.”

It slumped into the chair and stared at me. “That was cruel!”

“Funny though. Before you decide just how cruel it was… Now you’re hairless. Feel yourself.”

Oh god did it feel itself! It was at it for five minutes before I told it to stop.

“Now do you think life as a slave might be worth it?”

“I very nearly do! Fucking hell!”

“Now, I have one piece of news you might actually find you agree with after a while. You and your companions are considered guests in part. Oh, you’ll still obey, but my master has decided not to put you to work. Your lieutenant however has requested no preferential treatment. He wants to experience this life fully, so he will not be joining you. He’s sleeping with the other slaves and will be treated exactly the same as them.”

“I… You mean he asked for it?”

“He joined you because he’d been following the races for a while,. He’s been curious about a number of aspects of the fetish lifestyle. He loves rubber. He wanted to experience slavery. He wanted to try for the dog races long before you arrested us, so when he heard it was actually something that might happen, he leapt at the chance and volunteered.”

It brushed its chest and shuddered. “I… don’t think I’ll disagree with him. I think I’m turning pervy myself, feeling this.”

“Good. Now the suit you’re in offers us complete control over you. Even if you don’t want to do something, trust me, we will make you do it. Slaves obey without question and if they resist, they’re punished.” I placed the fob on the table. “And this is one of the things we use to control you.”

It looked at it. “A car fob?”

“It’s much more than that.”

“Makes it pretty easy for a bit of civil disobedience doesn’t it? All we’d need to do”

“Is snatch it from one of us?” I shook my head. “Try.”

“What?”

“Touch it. If you’re really brave, pick it up.”

It suddenly appeared a lot less sure of itself. It reached across, tapped it with its finger and leapt out of the chair in shock. After staring at it a moment, it collected the chair and sat staring at the thing.

“Why did I… I couldn’t see! What… The thing up my ass! It shocked me!”

“Punishment comes in many forms. That’s a severe one. You didn’t hold it long enough to realise another.”

I picked it up, selected the function and pressed the button.

It didn’t react at first but it wasn’t long before it was gripping its throat.

I restored its air. “That’s the unpleasantness out of the way, unless you resist. Now for the good stuff.”

“Good stuff?”

“Tell me how it feels.”

Its level… Seven.

“That, combined with a variety of programs, is our reward for good behaviour and good work, officer. Oh, there is one more thing…”

“Could you…” it pointed at the fob again.

“Oh, don’t worry, everyone who behaves as expected gets one hour of that a week. You will too. Right now though… When you’re in a suit with no markings like that it means one thing. You are no longer a person. You’re a thing. An object. An “it”. I achieved several promotions and regained my personal pronouns some time ago. Get used to being called it. Oh, and until my master decides otherwise, you and every other slave in a suit with no markings is called blank. That includes your companions.”

It chuckled. “Blank?”

“Some find it quite alarming at first.”

“I can live with it. And when I’m a dog? I noticed they all had names.”

“Dogs, yes. Blanks, no. You do regain your he and him as a dog too. Your captain has supplied us with a list of names for you.”

It nodded.

“Now, I imagine you’ll welcome a proper sleep. I’ll send you down to the cell level. Follow the commands you hear. You really don’t want to disobey them. It’s a computer program so it will continue to punish until you do what it tells you. I’ll send you down to your cage as soon as I’ve taught you some sign language.”

It jumped. Looked at me. “Cage… I don’t know why I jumped then. Slaves. Cages. They do seem to go together.”

“You’ll get used to it. You’ll be sleeping in it for a month. Might be an idea for you to switch once in a while though. The cells are six cages, three on each side facing each other so you’ll need to swap and change so you can speak to all your companions and they can speak to each other. The ones above and below can’t see each other, obviously.”

I closed the laptop and switch to slow large signing.

“I . m.u.s.t . s.a.y . . Y.o.u . s.e.e.m . t.o . h.a.v.e . a.d.j.u.s.t.e.d . b.e.t.t.e.r . t.h.a.n . I. e.x.p.e.c.t.e.d”

“I.t.s . a . b.i.t . s.l.o.w . i.s.n.t . i.t . B.u.t . y.e.s . . Y.o.u . d.i.d . w.a.r.n . m.e . i.t.d . b.e . p.a.i.n.f.u.l . a.n.d . u.n.c.o.m.f.o.r.t.a.b.l.e .

I signed at full speed. “Believe me, once you get used to it, you can get across a lot of information in a short amount of time.”

It sat back in its seat. “W.h.a.t . d.i.d . y.o.u . j.u.s.t . s.a.y”

I repeated myself slowly.

“Y.o.u.r.e . r.i.g.h.t . t.h.a.t.s . r.e.a.l.l.y . n.o.t . t.o.o . b.a.d . i.s . i.t”

“W.h.a.t . d.i.d . y.o.u . t.h.i.n.k . o.f . i.t? B.e.i.n.g . a . s.t.a.t.u.e?”

“A.f.t.e.r . t.h.e . i.n.i.t.i.a.l . s.h.o.c.k . I . k.n.e.w . t.h.e . d.o.g.s . f.r..o.z.e . . W.e . c.a.r.r.i.e.d . e.n.o.u.g.h . o.f . t.h.e.m . i.n.t.o . t.h.e . v.a.n . b.u.t . i.d . l.i.k.e . t.o . d.o . i.t . a.g.a.i.n”

I sped up a little, reduced the size. “You will. Every day, you get a wash and flush. Don’t worry, no more hair remover for you.”

It nodded and sped up a little itself. “So I’ll lose this amazing feeling?”

“You felt it before your hair was gone. It just wasn’t as intense.”

“Screw it. Screw my hair. I want to feel this for as long as possible, I love it. How often with the hair remover for you?”

“Once a week. It’s not as bad as your first. It doesn’t sting, it’s more of a tingle.”

“Please. Let me do that too. I don’t care if I come out of this as bald as a coot.”

“If you’re sure.”

“I am. I might even do the same as Yarrow.”

“Ask for complete slavery? If your companions regain their names, you wouldn’t in that circumstance. You’d be called Blank until you were released. You’d be put to work too.”

“You were right. I am learning about myself. I think I am kinky after all.” it chuckled. “I might even ask to stay after those races of yours.”

“I somehow think my master would refuse to take you as a permanent. You have a job to do.”

“What job?”

“You’re a cop. You said yourself if any of you suddenly vanished we’d never know peace. Your job? Spread the word. Educate your colleagues that the fetish community isn’t something to persecute. Maybe even talk more of them into taking part.”

“I will. Don’t worry about that. I know I apologised but fuck me, I’m glad I arrested you.”

I chuckled. “Because if you hadn’t…”

“Exactly. And I haven’t even sampled the delights of your dungeon yet. The idea horrified me at the station but now… I’m looking forward to it. Can I see it before you send me to bed? I admit, I’m curious.”

I nodded and stood. Then paused and chuckled. I tapped and dragged into my armband, selected the dungeon and hit activate.

It looked up at the voice it had heard.

“That was your program?”

I nodded.

“And if I refuse, it…”

“Try it. It warns you a few times before the first punishment.”

It nodded as we walked to the elevator. It didn’t hit the panel.

Thirty seconds later, it jumped and looked at me. “This is so fucking freaky.”

“What is?”

“Could… Could I…”

“What?”

“Could I try holding your fob? Rather than just touch it?”

“Sure.” I held it out and dropped it into the palm of its hand.

Instantly, it closed its hand and stiffened. It twitched. It didn’t let go and then, thirty seconds later, a judder. Finally, it let go and gasped for breath. It recovered in an amazingly short amount of time.

It was my turn to stare. “Thirty seconds? Most are sobbing or curled into a ball after ten! Fucking hell, Blank!”

“I was going to say the same thing to you. How can it be? It was even more painful than the plug, but… It… I can’t… I hated what the plug felt like until I got used to it but that…”

“You actually liked that?”

It took a deep breath. “I think I did. What the hell?”

“We have a term for people like you. I wonder… I’ll have to ask my master…”

“What?”

“There’s a program in this fob. One for real pain pigs. For everyone else, and believe me, I’ve experienced it, it’s fucking hell…”

“You’re going to ask if you can use it on me?”

I shook my head. “It’s unique, that program. Once it’s started it can’t be stopped and it runs for one hour. I wouldn’t put my worst enemy through that until I was sure. I’ll ask him if there’s a variant I can cancel.”

It chuckled. “Oh fuck me. I think this is going to be the best time I’ve had in my life, sir. Please. Put me in with Yarrow. Errr… How do you do it?”

“Do what?”

“I imagine there’s some… pose or ritual or something?”

“Ah. You submit? On your knees. Head down, look at the floor. Hands behind your back. As you’re mute, however I permit you to move your hands forward to speak. Then, you request it.”

It collapsed to its knees and took up the pose immediately.

It knelt there for a minute, shook a couple of times, obviously from the shocks the program was still inflicting and then moved its hands forward so it could speak.

“I don’t know the words, but… Please. I beg you to treat me as any other blank slave in this place. Teach me. You said you were offering us a chance to walk a mile in your moccasins. Let me experience it as completely as it’s possible for me to, sir?”

“How many shocks have you taken so far?”

“Eight, sir. And one of them was while holding the fob.”

“You understand the shocks are supposed to be a means of control? A coercion to get you to do as you’re told? You’re not supposed to enjoy it.”

“I know, sir. But I do.”

“Then we’ll have to find something you intensely dislike and use that as a punishment.”

“I agree, sir. Thank you, sir.”
“Actually, while you’re down there, hands behind your back again.”

It did so.

“Now touch your forehead to the floor at my feet.”

It did that too.

“That is how we thank our superiors. Now stand up and hit the panel.”

It looked up at me and repeated the gesture before standing to slap it.

The elevator opened immediately. It looked in the air again and hit the inside panel. I hit it and B3 too and we descended.

Q’s voice had a shocked tone when it sounded in my ears. “Artemis…. What did I just witness? The alarm alerted me. That was a hell of a lot longer than the standard ten seconds.”

“It’s Kowalski, sir. It asked if it could hold my fob after it’d taken a shock for disobeying the program. I didn’t freeze it, sir. It held on for thirty seconds. I think it only let go due to lack of air. It’s just as confused as I am surprised, sir. We’ve got a real pain pig here, sir. It liked it.”

“Good lord. Well, it wouldn’t be the first. And the rest?”

“It was submitting, sir. It wants to live our lives just as we do. Even more so than Yarrow, sir.”

“More than Yarrow?”

“It said it didn’t want to lose what the suit feels like. It wants to live exactly as we do, weekly hair removal included, sir.”

“Granted. Block one along with Yarrow. Blank for its full term. Anything else?”

“Sir, is there an alternative version of the pain pig program? One that can be cancelled?”

“At the moment, no. I’ll get back to you on that. You really think it’ll like it?”

“It liked escape protocol, sir. I know the pain program’s worse from first hand… first ass experience sir, but… I think it will, but I wouldn’t want to inflict the unstoppable one on it. Not until we were sure.”

“Check your fob later, it won’t take long for such a small modification to be made. Look for program P69. And grant it full access and freedom for a day after its sleep. It certainly earned it, enduring over thirty seconds. I would’ve said three days but we have limited time with them and it did enjoy it.”

“Yes, sir.”

Blank prodded me and pointed at the dungeon. The elevator must’ve arrived a couple of minutes ago.

“Don’t worry, Blank. I was just consulting with my master. You’re one of us until after the races. I’ll put you in the same cell as Yarrow and you’ll be given the de-hairing weekly, just as we are. He also has that very special program for people like you, but I asked for a modified version. One I can cancel, just in case it’s too much for you.”

It pointed at its ass.

“Yes, Blank. As I said, I’ve experienced it. Until we know, I would never inflict the unstoppable one on you.”

It nodded. “Thank…” It collapsed back to its knees and thanked me properly.

“You’re really getting into the spirit aren’t you? Come on, I’ll show you around.”
