Jandar starts to speak: “Good maiden, please…”

I’m still feeling tipsy and brave, so I cut off Jandar’s words by gently cupping his face in my hands and then leaning in and kissing him full on the mouth, preventing him from saying anything further. This kiss is soft and lingering and I relish his closeness and the taste of his tongue. I wish I could feel his lips through my mask…

Jandar’s freckled cheeks are blushing pink when I relinquish the kiss. I move my face underneath my mask into a pout. “Your fault for being so handsome,” I say with a hint of playful annoyance. “It’s not fair that someone can look this good.” I gaze at his well-marked freckles and sculpted features. He is truly one of the hottest guys I’ve ever seen.

Jandar laughs a little nervously. “My brother tells me you have magic.”

I gaze into his shimmering green eyes. “Yes, I do have magic. Hey, I have a question for you. Do you find me magic?”

“You are a little intoxicating,” Jandar replies.

I skip a beat as he cals me intoxicating. “Is that your way of saying I’m magical?” I tease.

“Well, yes. But also kind of… drunk.”

I laugh and nod. “Yeah, I guess the mead has gon to my head a little bit,” I admit with a sheepish smile. “But I can’t help it. It’s just so good.”

At that moment, there is a commotion of people yelling and stampeding away. With an unreal, head reeling sensation, I see a monstrous figure, eight feet tall, striding through the crowd. The figure is dressed in armour with a helmet shaped like a horse skull and wields a metal staff, the end of which appears to distort the air around it, so its outline appears to writhe like a multitude of snakes. The monstrous figure strikes left and right at the crowd and each time the staff hits someone, there is a flash and they fall and lie still.

“Who … who is that?!” I hasp, my voice trembling with fear and disbelief. “What is that thing?”

Jandar’s freckled face looks pale. “That is Judge Distortion,” he replies. “An envoy and heanchman of the Duke of Death.”

The terrible figure of Judge Distortion calls in a sepulchral voice: “Distortion comes to strike you down.”

I feel a surge of panic as I realise that Judge Distortion is coming straight for us!

I leap forward in a desperate attempt to protect my pretty guys from Judge Distortion. “Nooo!” I cry out as Distortion stikes me with his staff.

Ugh, I feel like I’m being squished from all sides and shrinking, what’s going on?

“What’s happened to me?!” I gasp, my voice now sounding flat and distorted.

Gabe and his brothers are murmuring in terror.

“Your body has transformed into a green pizza shaped disc, with just your eyes, nose and mouth remaining intact,” says Jandar, his blue green eyes wide as he looks at me.

Oh great. I’ve been flattened again. At least I’m still conscious this time. With an effort, I flip myself into the air. Something is bubbling inside me, like I’ve swallowed Distortion’s blast. Actually, that’s just what I’ve done. I disgorge it and spew it back at the monster. There is a flash, and distortion staggers backwards into the bonfire. The flames burn with searing blue light and smoke rises from the fiend’s armour to form the outline of a glowing skull which speaks in a hollow voice: “You cannot kill what does not live,” the spirit says. “I will return.”

I feel a sense of unease at this ominous warning, but I am also relieved that Distortion has been defeated… for now.

Gabe picks me up. His blue eyes look really anxious and his browns are drawn together.

“Look my love,” I say with a playful smile. “I’m a pizza now!”

The mayor approaches us and speaks up: “Ah, the magic maiden! You have saved us tonight. We are forever in your debt.”

I quiver in Gabe’s hands as the Mayor praises me. “Thank you, Sir,” I say cheerfully. “I’m just glad I could help.”

The crowd around us begin to cheer and applaud my bravery and heroism. Cool! I’m looking up at Gabe’s face, the familiar contours and constellation of freckles, making me ache with longing. “Kiss me, my starlord,” I whisper, wishing my voice didn’t sound so flat. Even though I’m flat and I’ve lost my arms and legs and my whole body, I feel even warmer and fuzzier than I did when I first drank that mead. Now that I’m in Gabe’s hands, I could sing.

I quiver with happiness as Gabe lifts me to his face and kisses me on the lips in front of everyone. “Oh my,” I say with a sultry smile. “Why don’t we go somewhere more private?”

Gabe raises an eyebrow. Right. He’s wondering how that would even be possible given my current flat and pizza shaped form.

The Mayor invites me to give a speech to the crowd, and promises he will grant me one request. Gabe carries me up to the podium and holds me up so I can be seen by the crowd.

“Good evening Coltbridge!” I say, my flat, disc shaped body rippling as I smile at them. “You’re all looking great. I’m feeling a bit flat, but it’s all worth it to be with my favourite frecklefaced guys, “Gabe, Jandar, Glorandel, Lorsan, Orrian and Eldrin.” I have listed all six brothers. Now for my request. “My only wish,” I say loudly, “is to be allowed to love and kiss all of them!”

“I grant your request,” says the Mayor. “You may love and kiss all six brothers as you like.”

I’m still in my flat disc form, but I feel the hot passion building up inside me as the brothers come up onto the platform and kiss me one by one on the lips. I can barely contain myself. I wriggle in delight as Jandar kisses me and when it’s finally Gabe’s turn and he takes me from Jandar’s hands into his own, I ask that we leave the podium to talk more privately under the shade of a silver willow whose leaves gleam in the moonlight. Gabe carries to the trunk of the willow, where the silver foliage provides some cover. I look up at Gabe with a mixture of desire and impatience as he holds me in both hands. “You’ve kept me waiting long enough,” I say with a sultry smile. Will he get the message? I want more than just kisses.

“What would you like to do, Carly?” says Gabe. The poor sweet guy has an anxious look. Of course he does. Bizarre and frightening things have all happened tonight. I want to relax him. I’m still in my flat green disc form, but more than ready to take our relationship to the next level. I look up at his beautiful, freckled face with a wicked grin as he looks worried. “Oh darling,” I say, my voice dripping with desire. “I think you know exactly what I want to do.”

Gabe is puzzled, I can see that. He wrinkles his freckled nose pensively. “Tell me anyway. I want to hear you say it.”

I smile my sultry smile as he holds me in both hands. “I want you,” I whisper. “I want all of you. I want to feel your touch, to feel your body against mine. I want to be close to you, in every way possible.”

Gabe’s blue eyes widen. “So how do you propose we do this, my flat pizza shaped love?”

I ponder this for a moment. I must find a way to be intimate with Gabe. “Hmm… This is definitely going to require some creative problem-solving.” I ponder for another moment before an idea pops into my mind. “I have an idea,” I say with my wicked smile. “But you’ll have to trust me.”

Gabe nods.

“Okay,” she says. “Here’s what we’re going to do.” I lower my voice to make absolutely sure only Gabe can hear. “Alright,” I say, smiling my sly smile. “My plan is this: You’re going to slip away and carry me back to your room, and we’re going to have some fun.”

Gabe’s POV

My head’s spinning with everything that’s gone wrong tonight. Judge Distortion coming back… and Carly has been flattened again. Can we fix her this time? The bizarre thing is, she doesn’t see upset about it. I’ve never known her to be this extroverted in front of whole crowds of people. I’m holding her in both hands. She’s compressed much worse than last time, she’s been reduced to a flat green circular disc with only her eyes, nose and mouth remaining of her human form. She is about a foot wide and an inch thick. She feels strange in my hands, somewhat like soft putty, and yet fleshy at the same time.

She wriggles, her disc shaped form rippling like a flatfish. “Lemme look at your face, my love.”

I turn her around, seeing her flattened green face again. She grins at me. “I get the best view from here.”

“Indeed,” I murmur. My heart is thumping. Why is she so nonchalant? I am also puzzled as to why my brothers and the Mayor just took everything in stride. Do they suppose that her magic will automatically repair her?

I return to our house and carry her up to my room and sit on the bed where I sit and place her down gently beside me.

I cover my face with my hands. “Oh Carly, what are we to do?”

“Hey, my love, look at me.”

I turn to gaze at the flat, green disembodied face lying on the bed beside me. “Listen…” says Carly, “you’re upset, it’s all been pretty scary, but I’m gonna relax you. Please unbutton your shirt.”

I mechanically unbutton my shirt.

“Take it off please. Let me see you,” insists Carly.

I take off my shirt.

“Wow, you’re so hot,” says Carly, her flat green form quivering as she grins. “Look at your broad shoulders and muscular pecs. Your creamy, freckled body and hairy chest… yum!”

She writhes and then flips herself, landing on my shoulder. She feels so cold and smooth. Then she slides her round, flat green body down my torso in a rippling motion, letting out a soft gasp of pleasure.

She looks up at me on my lap. “Hold me against your chest, please?”

I pick her up and hold her cold green flat form against my chest. “How’s this?”

She wiggles in my grasp and lets out a soft moan of approval. “Oh yes,” she says, smiling broadly. “This feels incredible. Rub me against you.”

I rub her cold, flat form on my chest and she moans softly again. This is bizarre. “Kiss me, kiss me,” she says, and starts quivering.

I hold her up to my face and our lips meet. Carly melts into the kiss completely, deepening the kiss even further. Her lips are locked with mine … she tastes strangely sweet. It is a weird experience. My heart is beating faster. She’s quivering hard. I gently detach her from my face.

She gazes up at me, her brown eyes wide. “Please,” she whispers. “I want more.”

“More? What do you mean by that?”

She looks at me with pleading eyes. “I want to feel closer to you,” she whispers. “I want to be even more intimate with you.”

“You’re already very close to me. Intimate? What would that entail?”

Carly’s flat green face creases as she frowns. Is she frustrated? She lets out a soft sigh. “Intimate means… closer than this,” she explains. “It means touching each other, exploring each other’s bodies, sharing pleasure…”

“How?” What does she expect me to do? She is a flat disc.

Carly gazes at me, her eyes intense. “Well,” she says slowly, “you could… touch me. You could explore my body with your hands and lips. And there are other ways we can be intimate too…”

“Touch you where?” I’m really puzzled now. “There’s only one flat surface!”

Carly lets out a sigh. “That’s not true,” she says. “I have sensitive areas all over my body. You can touch me gently on my edges. Or you can caress the centre of my disc…”

“Very well. Which area do you want me to touch first?”

Carly gazes up at me, her flat, green face creasing as she grins and wrinkles her shiny green nose, her eyes glittering. “Touch me on the edges first,” she says softly. “Be gentle, but firm. And then… move your hand slowly towards the centre of my disc…”

“Very well then. Here goes nothing…” I put Carly on the bed and then reach out and lightly trace my finger along the edge of her disc. She quivers and lets out a soft gasp. I trace my finger along her edge and she shivers and quivers even more as my finger continues its journey around her whole circumference.

She lets out a soft moan of approval. “Yes,” she whispers. “Just like that… don’t stop…”

I smile at her. “Very well, Carly. I won’t stop.”

Carly’s flat, green form quivers and she lets out a sign of contentment. “Good,” she whispers. “Keep going… don’t hold back…”

I continue tracing my finger around Carly’s edge, applying slightly more pressure this time. She wriggles and lets out a louder moan. “Oh yes,” she whispers. “That feels incredible… don’t stop, please don’t stop…”

I start moving my hand towards the centre of Carly’s disc, applying gentle yet firm pressure. She lets out a gasp as my hand moves towards her centre where her flattened shiny green nose is located. “Yes,” she whispers. “Right there… keep going…”

I reach her nose and apply firmer pressure, causing her to shudder and quiver uncontrollably. She lets out a louder moan. “Yes,” she whispers breathlessly. “Don’t stop… don’t ever stop…”

I look down at Carly, seeing how hard she quivers and shakes. “Are you alright?”

She gazes up at me, her eyes strangely bright. “Yes,” she whispers, her voice shaky. “I’m OK… it just feels so good… don’t stop touching me, please…”

“Of course not.” I keep my hand firmly pressed against her shiny green nose, watching as she shudders and quivers beneath my touch. She lets out a series of soft moans and gasps, her round flat body vibrating beneath my hand.

“Yes,” she whispers. “Keep going… use your other hand to touch my edge again. Go faster this time. Don’t stop until I can’t take it anymore…”

With renewed vigour, I increase the pressure and speed of my movements, causing Carly to tremble and vibrate even more intensely. She moans and gasps even louder. Her body shakes and writhes beneath my hands, responding to every movement with increasing intensity. “Yes,” she whispers breathlessly. “Don’t stop… I’m so close… don’t stop now…”

I apply maximum pressure to Carly’s nose, causing her to jerk and convulse violently beneath my hand. “Yes,” she whispers breathlessly. “Yes… yes… YES…”

After several long moments, Carly finally begins to calm down, her trembling subsiding and her breathing returning to normal. She lets out s soft sigh. “That was … incredible. Gabe my love, you are a marvel.”

“Are you alright?”

“Yes,” she whispers. “I’m OK… just a little tired. That was… intense.”

I give her a playful nudge. “Well, well, well. Look who’s all tired out.”

Carly chuckles. “Hey,” she says with mock indignation. “Cut me some slack. I just had the experience of a lifetime with a gorgeous and sweet guy.”

“Alright, alright.” I lean forward, grinning mischievously. “So, when do we do it again?”

Carly’s green form quivers as I lean closer. “Whenever you want,” she whispers. “I’m ready whenever you are.”

I smirk, leaning in even closer. “In that case, how about right now?”

Carly quivers, her flat green body rippling. “Yes. Right now. I’m all yours.”

“Very well then.” I place my hands on either side of Carly, gently lifting her up. “Let’s put you somewhere more comfortable.”

I take her little flat green body over to the couch, setting her down gently on the soft cushions. “Mmm,” she whispers. “This is nice… Please sit beside me.” She grins at me, her eyes glittering. “Will you relax for me, Gabe? Lie back on the couch and leave everything to me. Trust me… I promise it’ll be worth it. I can give you a massage like you’ve never had before.”

“Alright, alright. I trust you.”

I lie back, propping my head up on cushions, and Carly flips herself in the air like a pancake, landing on my exposed chest. Then her cold, flat green body begins to move on top of me, undulating in a way that sends shivers down my spine.

I close my eyes. “This feels nice.”

Carly moves herself into an upright position so that her stretched out green face is looking at mine. “I’m only just getting started.” She grins, crinkling her shiny green nose.

“Well then… keep going.” I lean back.

“With pleasure,” she whispers. With that, Carly resumes her movements over my chest and belly, increasing the intensity and speed so I feel tingly. “Oh ye gods… Carly…”

“Just let go,” Carly whispers as she slides on top of my chest, causing me to shiver. “Let yourself feel my magic…”

I throw back my head and gasp. Carly moves even faster over my skin, writing and undulating in a way that makes me feel tingly and feel giddy … I’ve no idea what magic she’s using, but it’s ecstasy.”

“Let go Gabe,” whispers Carly.

My whole body tenses up as I feel an explosion of sensation radiating from my chest where Carly is writhing. I cry out. Carly feels my body tense up. She slides up to my face and grins at me as the waves of pleasure subside. “Mmm,” she whispers. “Did you like that?”

“Oh my gods… yes.” I’m panting as I gaze at my love’s flat green disembodied face. “Thank you…”

Carly quivers and her grin broadens. “Of course,” she whispers. “Anything for you.”

At that moment, there are noises downstairs. My brothers have returned.

“They’re back. Let’s say hello,” says Carly. She flips her round, green, flat little body in the air and lands on the floor, then she writhes and moves over the floor towards the stairs. She slips under the door with ease. I follow, putting my shirt back on as I make my way across the landing. Carly begins sliding down the stairs to greet my brothers.

Carly writhes and moves along the hallway floor, looking like a flat, green disembodied face. My five brothers are crowding into the hallway. Orri and Eldrin give little starts as they catch sight of her sliding suddenly towards their feet, but they quickly recover their composure. They all witnessed what happened to her.

“Hey guys!” I scoop her up in my hands and she quivers with excitement. I hold her up so she can talk to my brothers at eye level. “Please,” says Carly. “There’s something important we need to discuss.”

We go into the parlous and I put Carly on the table. She confesses to drunkenly kissing Jandar and Glor, my oldest brothers, at the bonfire a few hours earlier. She quivers as she looks up at them both. “I’m sorry,” she says sincerely. “I was drunk and I made a mistake. It wasn’t right of me to kiss you both without your permission.”

So… I don’t know how to feel about this. I am hurt, but just hours ago, Carly was nearly killed and she did save us from Judge Distortion. I should forgive her.

“Oh, it was just a kiss, Magic Maiden,” says Jandar. “No harm done.”

Glor nods slowly. “And besides. You continue to astonish with your feats of magic and heroism.”

“I forgive you,” I say thickly.

Carly’s flattened green face creases as she grins up at me. “Thank you, my love.” She continues to speak, her flat green pizza shaped body quivering with emotion. “I know it might be weird,” she says. “But I feel like you guys are the family I never had. You’re all so kind and accepting, and being around you makes me happy. It’s wonderful being surrounded by so much male energy. My whole family used to be just my mum and me. I just wish I had a dad to walk me down the aisle.”

Yes, our wedding is coming up. I knew that Carly has no father and anticipated the need for an alternative to her dad walking her down the aisle. I had not anticipated that she would transmogrify into a flat green disc. That does make things complicated…

“So glad I’ve come clean,” says Carly. “Now speaking of getting clean,” she says casually, “I was wondering if I could join you guys for bath time tonight?”

“For sure,” says Jandar. “We would love to have you join us.”

Carly quivers slightly. “Thanks,” she says happily. “I can’t wait.”

I wonder why Carly wants to bathe with all of us? Our bath that we share on special occasions is a small swimming pool that easily accommodates all six of us. When it’s time for my bath I strip off all my clothes and then I tread the steps into the pool of bubbly water to join my five brothers. Then Carly comes writhing across the tiled floor, her flat, green body moving in a way reminiscent of the motions of a flatworm. She slips into the pool and swims though the bubbly water with a rippling motion like a manta ray. She swims amongst us, quivering noticeably. Is it possible that my flat green magical girlfriend is excited to be surrounded by a bunch of naked men?

“This is nice,” says Carly happily. “The bubbles feel amazing.”

The five of us swim around her.

“This is really nice,” she says again, closing her eyes and letting herself float on top of the water.

I swim up to her and she quivers harder. “You look so, so good,” she says with a smile. “You all do.”

I wish I could return the compliment truthfully, but she looks like a green flatfish. I don’t want to hurt her feelings. “Race you?” I suggest. “Let’s see who can swim one length first?”

“You’re on,” says Carly with a grin. “I may be small, but I’m fast!”

“On my mark… Get set… Go!” We start swimming fast. I fancy I am pretty strong at swimming front crawl. Carly swims through the water with a rippling motion, like a green flat fish. She quivers as she tries to keep up. “Come on,” she mutters. “You can do this!”

I’m winning, but I slow down to let her catch up. Carly slithers onto my shoulder and then twitches herself round to kiss me, quivering slightly as our lips meet. “You’re so sweet,” she says happily. “And such a good sport for letting me win.”

“You do swim as well as any fish,” I say with sincerity. She really does swim like a flatfish.

“Thanks,” she says with a grin. “I guess being flat and disc-shaped has its advantages in the water.”

“You are a lovable flounder,” I say.

Carly quivers as she laughs. “Yeah, I guess I am.”

“You are a little green marvel,” says Jandar.

Carly slithers off my shoulder and into the water where she floats, grinning up at Jandar. “Thanks. I’ll take that as a compliment.”

Now Orrian and Eldrin want us all to race. They’ve always been very competitive. Us brothers tread water in the deep end, preparing to race. Carly floats beside me, quivering as her eyes rove over me and the naked bodies of my brothers. I would bet the reason that she is trembling with excitement at the sight of all six of us lined up is because she knows this won’t be an easy win!

“Go!” shouts Jandar. We all swim flat out, Carly swimming through the water with her undulating motion. She suddenly dives under the water to swim below us. I think she’s quivering even more. Maybe she can go faster along the bottom of the pool.

Eldrin reaches the shallow end first and yells in triumph. Then he complains that something is wrapped around his leg. It turns out that Carly has got tangled around Eldrin’s leg in a surprise finish. He plucks her off and holds her up in the air. She wiggles in his grip and declares that they are technically tied.

“Well congrats Eldrin and Carly,” says Jandar.

Carly grins at him, her eyes glittering and her shiny green nose crinkling. “How about a kiss to congratulate me?”

Jandar takes Carly from Eldrin and kisses her on the lips. Carly returns the kiss passionately and quivers very hard in his hands, hard enough to flap around like a fish.

I watch Jandar kissing Carly, feeling conflicted about it all. Carly’s so happy to be kissing my brother. Why is that?

“So handsome and such a good kisser,” gushes Carly as Jandar holds her up. “You make this poor flat green girl with no body feel honoured to have your attention.”

Eldrin and Orrian snigger and Glor raises his eyebrows. Carly is quivering in Jandar’s hands and looking at him with a soft smile.

“Let’s play ball,” says Glorandal.

Carly droops a bit in Jandar’s hands. “I’ve got no arms or legs,” she says. “I’ll just watch.”

“You can be a boundary marker,” says Orrian.

“Cool,” says Carly.

We brothers six take our positions, standing in a hexagonal formation. Carly floats exactly in the middle. “I’ll stay perfectly centred,” says Carly. She flips herself up and out of the water and then lands back down in her starting position with perfect accuracy.

The six of us play catch while Carly watches, a shiny green flattened face floating on top of the water. Her brown eyes flicker towards each of us. I suppose she’s keeping track of the game, even though her eyes are looking over us rather than at the ball. She twitches and wiggles from time to time as she stares at us each in turn, her flat green form rippling.

We finish playing catch.

“Thanks guys, I really enjoyed it,” says Carly.

We leave the pool and start getting dried off. Carly slithers out of the pool and moves across the tiles with a rippling motion.

“Let me give you a massage? Please?” She begs Jandar. “Gabe knows I give the best massages.”

Jandar agrees and lays back on the deckchair and lets Carly slither over his bare chest, her expression one of rapture as she ripples and quivers as she moves over his bare skin in circular motions.

Eldrin distracts me for a while talking about how great he is at the Game of Life.

Soon it’s bed time. We brothers will share our large bed in honour of our reunion. Carly comes slithering under the door and moves across the floor with her rippling, wormy motion. “Please guys, let me sleep in your bed. It’s lonely sleeping by myself.”

“Sure come in,” Says Jandar and I nod.

Carly leaps into the air and lands on the bedside table, then she slides into our bed, squirming and wiggling. As we lie back, she glides over each of our naked bodies. I feel her squirming and undulating as she slides onto my torso. She is still slithering restlessly over our naked bodies under the covers as I drift off to sleep.

The next morning we wake up and I’m worried that Carly is nowhere to be seen, but fortunately she just got stuffed down the side of the bed in the commotion when we all got up. I pull her out.

“Phew. Thanks my love,” she says, her green face crinkling as she smiles at me. “I must have looked pretty silly stuffed down there.”

My brothers laugh. “We need to get you some help, Carly,” I tell her as she smiles up at me as I hold her in both hands. “We need Madame Ulnula the witch.”

But now a messenger arrives, sent by the Mayor. Another of the Dread Disciples, henchmen of the Duke of Death, now threatens the city. So… Judge Distortion was just the first. The Mayor has decreed that Carly, “the Magic Maiden,” is summoned as a matter of urgency, and we six must accompany her.

“A girl’s gotta do what a girl’s gotta do,” says Carly, her green face crinkling in determination. “My cure will have to wait. We’ve gotta kick a Dread Disciple’s butt.”
