A portal is created to a very different "Man's World."

The Portal Project is a scientific attempt to create a portal to other
dimensions for the purpose of stealing ideas and weaponry.

The Lottery Games are a yearly game in another world/dimension in
which 300 "selectees" are subjected to a brutal (and sexual)
elimination process to determine the winner. The losers are sold, the
winner lives in luxury for the rest of her life.

This is a Sci-Fi story with rather graphic BDSM content. As my
standard warning below indicates, some of my stories are intense. 

If Science Fiction is not your bag, skip the story- or at least the
first section.

If Non-consent, Forced Competition, Forced Orgasm, Spanking, Flogging,
Caning, Public Oral, Public Anal and a few other key words that I
didn't include are not your bag, skip the story.

If you are still reading this, the story is approximately 15K words
long and there may be future episodes based on the worlds that are
accessible through The Portal Project.

Ryan Wetherington was an asshole. He preferred to call himself
dominant or assertive. His favorite self-description was to say
smugly, "I'm a take-charge kind of guy." But the whispered word that
followed him out the door from almost every meeting was "Asshole!"

Like many who think they are dominant, assertive, take-charge kinds of
guys, he gravitated toward the military where his lackluster career
would have quickly faded into nothingness except for the fact that he
was a "lucky asshole" who always managed to transfer to another area
just before the manure pile he had created hit the ventilator...
except once.

He had somehow managed to rise all the way to Lieutenant Colonel
before finally royally screwing the pooch. In his typical sloppy,
incompetent fashion, he had neglected to order the proper routing of a
set of top-secret orders in a timely manner. He had done- or failed to
do-  such things many times before, but this time an extraction team
who hadn't gotten the delay notice was wiped out for lack of backup
and air cover.

Typically, Ryan had covered his ass sufficiently that he could not be
officially blamed, but everyone in the entire chain of command knew
exactly who had screwed up.  So, as punishment and to put him
somewhere where he couldn't do any more damage, he was buried away in
a useless assignment far away from the normal chain of command.
Effectively, he was exiled until he- like many other Lieutenant
Colonels before him who failed to advance further- could be forced
into plateau retirement. The place of exile chosen for Lt. Colonel
Ryan Wetherington was oversight liaison to a useless, dead end,
science fiction program called "The Portal Project."

Someone had convinced some idiot senator with a lot of influence that
if we could spy on parallel universes we could see what great
inventions they had and copy them, thus assuring that we would always
have the technological advantage in warfare and economics. Toward this
end, a series of "portals" were created that were supposed to bore
through the fabric of time and space to see into other dimensions.

It was a stupid project that did nothing but attract off-the-wall
scientists and tin-foil-hat weirdos. The actual team, however, was
top-notch. There were seventeen people under Ryan's command. All were
geniuses and all were, to say the least, very non-conventional. Nine
were civilian contractors who looked like they had just returned from
a Cosplay convention. The other eight were theoretically military.

That was not immediately obvious as you looked at the team, however.
It was difficult to tell who was military because of a complete lack
of personal discipline. The only one dressed in anything approaching
proper uniform was Johansson, who arrived every day smartly attired in
the dress skirt and blouse of a naval midshipmen. The crisscrossed bow
tie was even always perfectly in place.

The only problem with this perfect uniform was the fact that
Midshipman Johansson was Midshipman David Allen Johansson. His IQ was
somewhere above Einstein's and the Navy needed his expertise on a
regular basis. But they knew that he was also extremely high on the
weird scale, so they needed someplace safe to keep him more or less
out of sight when he wasn't needed. The Portal Project was the perfect
fire extinguisher cabinet in which to store his brilliance until it
was needed elsewhere.

The whole project was a collection of strange ideas and even stranger
people and should have been the perfect end of Ryan's not so glorious
career. But Ryan Wetherington was not just a lucky asshole, he was an
unbelievably lucky asshole. Four months after joining The Portal
Project, the  pixilated garbage on one of the monitor screens in the
control room flickered to a slightly different color of chaos and then
suddenly became a crystal clear image of desks and work areas.

At first, the image on the screen looked very much like the control
room for The Portal Project, and Ryan's immediate reaction was to
bellow out, "OK, which one of you dweebs is screwing around with the
video feeds?"

A rather timid voice answered him with "That's not THIS control room,
sir." That had to have been Johansson. No one else addressed him as
"Sir."

The midshipmen was correct. Watching the image on the monitor it was
readily-apparent that it was not The Portal Project's control room.
For one thing, it was laid out slightly differently. For another,
everything seemed... off. There wasn't any one thing that you could
put your finger on, but the colors, the shapes, even the perspective
seemed... wrong.

One of the figures working in the image's control room suddenly looked
directly into the monitor with a very surprised expression on his- or
was it her- face. They ran out of the image for a moment and returned
with a large piece of white cardboard which they held up in front of
themselves facing the monitor- actually the portal. It almost looked
like it had writing on it, but it seemed to be backward... or
twisted... or something.

"What the hell is that?" snarled Ryan.

"I can read it," stuttered one of the female scientists. "I have
severe dyslexia and normal print is all scrambled in my mind... but
that is clear. It says, `Can you see us?'"

"Answer them," ordered Ryan, and Ruthie, the dyslexic scientist, ran
over to the supply cupboard and brought back a sheet of poster board.
She wrote rapidly on it in the strange, scrambled way that she wrote
everything in her personal notebooks. When she held it up to the
portal which was displayed on monitor seven, the other control room
broke into cheers and applause.

A few minutes later, when the excitement had begun to die down,
another piece of cardboard was held up to the monitor. "It says
`transfer,'" said Ruthie. "I think it's a question."

The figure then pushed the cardboard toward the monitor. "They are
going to try to push the note through the portal!" exclaimed another
of the techies.

The piece of cardboard seemed to push against the glass on the front
of the monitor, but nothing emerged from the portal. The frustration
on the face of the person pushing the cardboard was obvious as the
sign crumpled and bent.

Suddenly, another of the workers in the monitor ran over to the first
and began an excited conversation. The first figure then picked up
both signs on their sides and turned toward the monitor with their
arms held straight out to their sides. They rocked their arms up and
down a couple of times and then held them even. They then set both
signs back down on their desktop and slid them one over the other
until they were switched, hand to hand.

Midshipmen Johansson shouted, "They think that cosmic balance is
preventing the transfer." He picked up one of Ruthie's signs in their
control room and added, "We have to send something more or less equal
back to their dimension at the same time for it to work."

He then began to slowly push the sign against the portal on the
project's side. The image in the monitor did the same with their sign
and suddenly the sign in Johansson's hands began to slip through the
portal. As it did, a piece of cardboard began to emerge alongside it.

Ryan ran over to the portal and tugged at the emerging sign. As he
did, one of the figures in the monitor mirrored his action. A moment
later, Ryan was standing in the control room of The Portal Project
with proof that cross-dimensional transfer was possible. In his hands,
on a piece of black cardboard, written in white lettering, was the
word, `Transfer?'"

"Why in the hell is it black?" he asked loudly in perturbed
wonderment.

"It must be an anti-dimension," answered Johansson. "It is somehow the
opposite of our universe. Things change when they go through the
portal, or we don't see them properly in the monitors. Either way,
things are very different on the other side of the portal."

"Look at the monitor," Ruthie suddenly said. They were holding up
another sign. "It says `Transfer video machine.'" The figure holding
the sign was also speaking and pointing to a cabinet very similar to
The Portal Project's controlled power supply.

 "I think they are saying that holding the full portal takes too much
power." added Johansson.

A new sign was held up. "They are going into a dark period," said
Ruthie, "... and can't sustain the energy. Maybe the video machines
will keep contact at lower power."

"Grab the TV out of the lunch room," shouted one of the other techs. 

"No!" yelled another. "Send them a computer. That's probably what they
are trying to send us. Grab one of the big tablets on our wireless
network."

A few moments later, a large display tablet was being pushed against
the face of the portal while at the same time a similar-looking device
was slowly emerging from the swirling entry to another dimension.

As soon as the unit was clear of the portal, another sign was held up
to the monitor. It seemed to have an equation written on it. "It says,
`Five cycles,'" Ruthie explained. "Beneath it is says `five equals
thirty,' but I'm not sure what that means."

The figure holding the sign then pointed to a spot on the sign and
then to themselves. They then pointed to a different spot on the sign
and then up at the portal/monitor. "Five of their cycles equals thirty
of our cycles." said Ruthie excitedly. "But I don't know what cycle
they are talking about.

The figure on the monitor raised their hand straight above their head
and slowly lowered it to one side. They then raised it up on the other
side and brought it once again over their head to the other side.
"Days!" yelped Johansson. "Five of their days is thirty of ours. They
will power back up in thirty of our days."

The screen returned to its former pixelated garbage and the portal
section of the wall in The Portal Project stopped swirling.

***

It took the team almost an hour to figure out how to turn on the alien
computer. The screen was clear, but the images were strangely
distorted and no one- except Ruthie- could read the menus. Finally she
said, "I've got it!" and selected one of the strange icons. A new
window of some sort opened on the monitor and Ruthie again selected
one of the icons. She sat mumbling to herself softly as she went
rapidly through several more screens.

The images were now clear and undistorted, but the colors were
reversed. "Just a minute," said Ruthie as she selected another icon.
In a few moments, the screen flickered and the colors were right...
almost. There was still something about the image that was slightly
off, but it was otherwise sharp and clear.

"What do you think we should do?" asked Ryan.

"Well," answered Ruthie. "This one says `Play Me,' so I think that's
what they intended.

"Do it!" snapped Ryan and a few moments later a video appeared on the
screen. This time, after a screen with the typical scrambled writing
on it, a title appeared written in clear English. "The first writing
said that what follows has been modified for cross-dimensional
distortion," explained Ruthie as everyone gathered to watch.

The video was entitled, "An Explanation of Our World." A figure
appeared on the screen. His voice was not understandable- except by
Ruthie- but closed-caption style text scrolled across the bottom of
the screen.

"Our world is very much like your world," began the spokesperson. "Our
portal project was started with the idea of capturing electronic
signals from other dimensions. We have been able to access your audio,
video, and internet feeds for some time. That is how we were able to
create this cross-dimensional translation. Hopefully it works in
reverse as well as it did to translate your world for us.

"Recently, one of our scientists determined that you were also working
on a portal. He theorized that if we linked the portals we would be
able to see your world live through portal monitors and perhaps even
create a true portal from our world to yours."

The figure on the screen then stepped to one side and a graphic
appeared alongside him. "We have determined that there are three major
differences between our worlds," he continued. "The first is the speed
of rotation of our planet. Our light cycle is much slower than yours.
Five of our cycles is almost exactly the same as thirty of your
cycles.

"The second difference is that you appear to have much greater access
to sources of power, or at least you are willing to use sources of
power that would poison our world... maybe it is poisoning your world
and you do not care. In any case, our power capabilities are much more
limited than yours.

"And the third difference is that our entire world is under one
government. We have absolute peace but it is at a tremendous cost. Our
government is very authoritarian and brutal with total and absolute
power and authority. It is also totally male-dominated. Women have
some degree of freedom within our society, but they know their place.
Female slavery is allowed, but is very tightly controlled and
primarily exists as a way to vent certain traits that are necessary
for the preservation of such a society.

"Toward that end, each year 300 young women worldwide between the ages
of eighteen and twenty-one are selected for slavery by a random
process. To satisfy the entire male populace with such a small number
would be impossible. But in the year of their selection, these young
women are forced to compete is a series of `games' which are broadcast
throughout our world. To encourage the selectees to actually compete,
there are punishments for the losers and the final winner is granted
freedom and a lifetime of luxury. It is very difficult to describe
what these games are, so we have linked to a separate video on this
machine which will now play. It also has been translated- including
voices- for your dimension."

The screen flickered and went dark. Then a new video started. The
title, "Highlights from The 174th Annual Lottery Games," scrolled
slowly up the screen in large letters as music played in the
background. The image behind the title showed a coffle line of naked
women walking slowly into a huge arena while a large band on the
sidelines played a very stirring march of some sort. The women were
bound to each other by chains and collars that kept them six abreast
and held them about three feet from the woman in front and behind
them. Their arms were held up by wrist cuffs also attached to the
chains.  Evidently they were required to walk so that the chains
between them remained taut. All of them were totally shaved. There was
no evidence of hair on their heads or anywhere else on their bodies.

As they entered, text scrolled up the screen which said, "The 175th
Annual Lottery Games will begin on Drune 8. The contestants have
already been selected and will be rounded up one day before the games
if they have not yet reported to the proper induction station. Those
three hundred selectees will fight for the ultimate prize- a lifetime
of freedom. The losers will be enslaved and sold to the highest
bidder. The winner will be given her freedom and an annual prize of
one million bullers."

"I think that should be dollars," said Ruthie. Their autotranslator
must have kept their word for it."

"Whatever," mutter Ryan, who was now very intently watching the
screen.

"And `Drune 8' is a date." added Ruthie as she began working on her
own tablet. "I'm pretty sure it is just a little more than one month
from today by our calendar."

After the text had scrolled off the screen, a figure appeared on
screen holding a microphone. He had some sort of emblem on his jacket
and there were insert windows of four other men dressed in the same
jacket at each corner of the screen. When he spoke, his voice sounded
somewhat artificial, but it was understandable.

"The games last year were some of the best in this century," the
announcer said. "On our program tonight, we will be looking at the
four elimination events of those games, plus the finals."

The image zoomed to one of the inserts, "Yes, Harold, I have some
great coverage of the elimination race. It was a particularly nasty
course this year and took its toll- both on the winners and the losers
of the race."

A second insert zoomed to full screen, "And the team takedown was just
as nasty. These selectees were really motivated to win and it showed
in how they fought."

The third insert came to full. "The quarter-final elimination was also
very rough. The final twenty-five knew that the field would be brought
down to the final ten selectees and they stretched their body control
to the maximum." The announcer was speaking in that grandiose voice
used almost exclusively by sports announcers.

"That semi-final tug of war competition held some real surprises this
year," the fourth insert said. "You really need to stayed tuned to see
what unbelievable things happened in that round."

The screen then switched back to the original announcer, "And I had
the privilege of bringing you an unprecedented final round of
competition."

He smiled at the camera and said, "There were, indeed, many memorable
moments in this past year's games that we will get to all that, along
with everything that came before them, but first, a word from our
sponsor, LuxVolt, the supreme electric vehicle for the modern man."

***

The screen faded to black for just a moment and then returned to the
announcer. Evidently the commercials had been removed. "Let's go to
Leroy first and his coverage of the elimination race."

"Thank you, Harold," said Leroy. His image then faded away as the
camera panned across the 300 naked women who were now bunched up at
what was apparently a starting line. They were no longer chained or
restrained in any way. The image zoomed in close on a couple of the
women to show the large numbers painted on their back, arm and thigh.
A cannon or something like it suddenly boomed and the those at the
front of the pack began running frantically down the track.

As the mass of naked females surged forward, a small number of them-
perhaps as many as a dozen or more- stood quietly to the side. After
all of the runners had cleared the starting line, they turned towards
the stadium-like bleachers which were filled with cheering men. They
bowed their heads and then dropped to their knees and bowed down until
their foreheads touched the ground.

"Well, you really hate to see that," intoned Leroy, the sportscaster
whose image was now in the corner of the screen, "but every year there
are some selectees who know that they have no chance of winning and
refuse to run. They know they will be severely punished and their
value as slaves will be greatly reduced, but I guess they feel they
would rather endure that than risk injury or death in the games."

A large number of men dressed in black jumpsuits with yellow trim ran
out onto the track. "The words on the back say `Security,' said
Ruthie.

Another group of men in similar jumpsuits with orange trim scrambled
onto the track pushing small carts with punishment stocks on them.
"Their suits say `Stagecrew' or something like that," Ruthie
explained.

None of the women struggled as the security men led them over to the
stocks and put them in place. Their heads and hands were held securely
and a padded post pushed their asses high in the air. There were
fourteen in all, and they were now in a line with their asses pointed
toward the stadium seats.

Fourteen men carrying leather or wooden paddles walked slowly onto the
track. "We are going to stay with this for a few minutes," said the
announcer. "Those who purchased specialty tickets for this event have
first rights for any slaves which are created at this point.  These
men drew the last fourteen numbers, so they have the rights to these
lowest-ranking slaves. By administering the punishments, they are
claiming their slaves."

The main announcer cut in, "I see that one of them is carrying a
bullwhip rather than a paddle."

"That's right, Harold," the announcer on screen answered. "He must
have ticket 299, because the bullwhip is allowed only for the
lowest-ranking slave. I personally think that all of these early
losers should be lowest, but the judges who are monitoring the race
give that dis-honor to the first number that is entered on the tally
board as the slaves drop out of the race. It was probably the selectee
whose knees first touched the ground. "

The fourteen men lined up, one behind each of the now bound slaves. A
figure in a black jumpsuit with green trim raised his arm. When he
snapped his arm down, the first blow was delivered.

"That's one of the judges," said Ruthie.

"We sort of guessed that," answered another of the techies.

"Shut up, all of you!" snapped the Lieutenant Colonel. "I'm trying to
watch this!"

When all eyes suddenly shifted to him, he added, "We need to
understand this other world, don't we?" Then he asked, "Is that the
best you can do with the volume?"

In response, Ruthie moved the odd-looking mouse pointer over to the
corner of the screen and the screams of the women filled the room.

On the screen, the cameraman was moving down the row of women taking
closeups of each of their faces as the blows fell. When he got to the
last woman, she was screaming continuously and almost incoherently as
the bullwhip slammed into her ass. In the background, you could hear
the crowd counting, "ten, eleven, twelve..."

"We are going to rejoin the action on the track," intoned the
announcer. "If you want to see and hear all fifty strokes, you can
purchase the full video. That punishment, as well as all punishments
during the race are included with that package."

The screen cut to the herd of women now running across what was
apparently a very muddy field. "They have passed the two mile mark and
entered the first thinning point," said the announcer excitedly. "Just
ahead is the pig walk."

As he said that, the first of the women reached an area of mud which
seemed to have iron bars lying flat across supports which kept them
about three feet off the ground. The bars were eight or ten inches
apart and about fifty yards long, running in the same direction as the
track. The first woman threw herself down on the ground, slid beneath
the bars in the muck, and began frantically crawling on her stomach.

"It looks like some of the selectees know the importance of being in
the first one hundred through the pig walk," the announcer observed.
"As soon as the one-hundredth selectee stands up on the other side of
the barred area, the muck beneath the grating is electrified."

He laughed slightly, "The pulses will get stronger until by the time
the 275th selectee stands up at the other end of the troughs, it will
be almost impossible for the selectees still in the mud to move
because of the muscle spasms. But that won't make much difference,
because anyone beyond 275 will be out of the race and in the
punishment stocks."

As he was talking, the cameras zoomed in for a closeup as the women in
the mud began screaming. Evidently the electricity was flowing through
the mud because they all twitched and screamed at the same time.
Several fell on their faces into the muck. One woman pulled herself up
on top of the girl in front of her and began pulling herself rapidly
across the backs of the other women. The mud was evidently very slick
because she seemed to slide almost effortlessly along.

"We've never seen that move before," shouted the announcer. He held
his earpiece more tightly to his ear and said, "The judges are saying
that it is not specifically forbidden, so she won't be disqualified,
but that will be part of the post-race meeting discussions and may be
banned for next year."

The camera was now in a closeup shot following the woman as she slid
over the backs of her fellow selectees. She was almost at the end when
the woman she was attempting to slide over raised up and pushed her
firmly against the overhead bars. She screamed loudly as she thrashed
and twitched violently.

"Oh!" yelled the announcer. "The judges might not have to do anything
about it after all! The selectees themselves will take care of it in
the future. Those upper bars are alternately electrified and touching
two of them at the same time delivers a really severe shock. That
selectee is going to be lucky to be able to walk, let alone run, when
she gets out of the trough."

His prediction showed to be true as the camera followed the sliding
woman as she dragged herself out from under the bars. She stood up on
very wobbly legs and fell back to the ground several times before
stumbling on with the rest of the pack. There were a series of gates a
few hundred yards past the pig walk, and most of the field had passed
her before she had gone more than half that distance. The gates
snapped shut just before she reached them.

"There were fourteen who dropped out at the start, so there should be
eleven at this elimination point," the announcer explained. There were
a half-dozen women standing at the gates. The remaining five were
still under the bars screaming. Evidently the shocks were too great
and too rapid for them to even move.

Several of the crewmen ran out onto the bars carrying ropes. Evidently
the voltage on the bars themselves was shut off or they were wearing
special clothing and boots. In any case, they reached down between the
bars and looped the ropes over the wrists of the women thrashing in
the mud beneath them. Walking down to the end of the bars and feeding
the rope under the spacers and supports along the way brought the rope
out from the end of the troughs. A different crewman standing in the
muck at the end of the grating immediately pulled the women out and
lifted them to their feet. Security men met them then led the women
over to the punishment stocks.

"We are going to keep up with the race," said the announcer, "but
their punishments are also a part of the available complete video
package."

The image switched to a section of the course which seemed to have a
wall across it. There were seven openings in the wall which led
through long hallway-like slots that extended for about a hundred feet
past the wall. The pack was racing toward the wall and those who had
arrived were jostling and struggling for position to get through. The
process was relatively slow because there were some sort of bars
across the openings about three or four feet off the ground. The bars
seemed to be on a belt or chain drive system because they moved slowly
through the slot to the other end before looping back at the top of
the opening.

"Again, there is real incentive to be in the first one hundred through
the slots," explained the announcer, "because the canes activate when
the one hundredth selectee exits the slots."

Harold, the primary announcer, suddenly appeared in the corner of the
screen, "Once they come out the of the slots, it is a flat-out race
the mile and a half to the final gates which lead back into the
stadium. Those gates will close as soon as the one hundredth selectee
goes through them."

Screams could now be heard from the women in the slots. As they moved
through the narrow hallways bent over clutching the bar in front of
them, canes were whipping out from the walls snapping into their asses
every few feet.

"Oh," responded the announcer who had been describing the race. "It
looks like we have some more selectees refusing to continue." He
laughed. "They would have been better off refusing at the start. At
least there the punishment was done with paddles. Here it will be done
with a cane.

"Even so," he continued, "they would be better off going through the
slots. They would only get twenty or thirty swats with the cane in the
slots. Now they are definitely going to get fifty in the punishment
stocks."

"That's true, Leroy," Harold's voice answered, "but on the other side
of the slots there is still fifty swats with a punishment paddle
awaiting those who don't make it through those final gates with the
first one hundred. And the paddles at this point are specially
designed with holes and slots to increase the pain."

"You have a point there, Harold," Leroy responded. "I guess you have
to decide if fifty with the cane is better or worse than twenty or so
with a cane plus an additional fifty with the paddles." He laughed
again in his artificial way, "I'm glad I don't have to make that
choice."

As the camera switched to a shot of the women running for the final
gates he continued, "Remember, the caning and spanking punishments
will be included in the full video when you purchase it." The image
then switched to a camera on the other side of one of the gates as it
zoomed in on the face of one of the trailing women. Her face was
contorted in anger as the gate slammed shut on her, driving her back
into the crowd behind her. You could hear her screams of frustration
as she grabbed the bars and attempted to push or pull the gate back
open.

That camera was now panning across the one hundred women who had made
it through the gates. They were standing in the middle of the stadium,
muddy, trembling, bent over, and panting with exhaustion. The chief
announcer's face appeared in the corner. "That ends day one's
elimination, our highlights and the action for day two will resume
following this word from Bear Claw, the Real Man's Beer."

***

Again, the commercial, itself, had been edited out. After a very brief
black screen, the image returned with the primary announcer, Harold,
standing high in a large circular stadium that was reminiscent of the
Roman Coliseum. He pointed down to the arena and said. "You can see
the combat arena below me. The selectees have been divided into ten
teams of ten each. As you can see, there are ten home areas, each with
ten restraint poles mounted on the outer circle. The idea is simple.
You capture as many of your opponents as you can without being
captured yourself. Once seventy-five restraint poles are filled, the
round is over."

Another announcer appeared in the corner of the screen. He said, "And
remember, in the unlikely event that a team can fill their poles, that
team, or any remaining members of that team who are still free, are
exempt from further battle and are automatically moved into the next
round."

"That's right, Bill," bubbled Harold, "but we haven't had a team move
intact into the third round in over twenty years." Loud music began to
blare and he had to shout to be heard over the sound of bugles and
drums. "The selectees are marching in now," he yelled. "As soon as the
music stops, the games begin. Take it away. Bill!"

The selectees marched more or less in time to the music. Each woman
had two large bands of color painted around her abdomen. One half of
them had a red stripe just below their breasts, the other half had
blue. Beneath that was either white, yellow, gray, brown or black. As
they entered, they  circled around to the home area that matched the
colors painted on their bodies and stood in front of one of the poles
which also carried their team colors.

When the music stopped, most of them immediately ran toward the center
of the arena and began struggling with other selectees, trying to
overpower them and drag them back to the posts. Three of the teams,
however, held back. They gathered into a large group and moved as one
toward the team on their left. Since they were fighting as a unit
while all the others were fighting individually, the outcome was
predictable.

"That is amazing," shouted Bill. "I have never seen teams work
together like this before. They must have planned this overnight in
the holding pens. Look at how rapidly they are scooping up opponents."

 It was only a few moments before they had carried a dozen captives
back to their posts and soon there were six women hanging from the
restraints of the poles of the red-white and red-gray teams. It was
obvious from the body motions of the red-yellow team that they
expected them to now get captives for their posts, but that was not
the case. Instead, the red-whites and red-grays turned on them and
quickly bound them to the red-white and red-gray posts.

"Unbelievable! Unbelievable! Unbelievable!" the announcer was
chanting. "TWO teams have protected themselves and moved totally
intact into the next round."

"I see that they made sure that none of the red-yellows would be there
to perhaps get revenge in the next round," observed Harold with a
laugh. "I have never seen selectees restrained on their own posts
before, but there are two red-yellows hanging from their own
red-yellow posts today."

A loud klaxon-style horn buzzed loudly and all of the women suddenly
stood still. "We have reached seventy-five captives," screamed Bill.
"This is the fastest this round has ever gone. The judges may have to
make some new rules about this for next year just to keep the games
interesting."

"I don't know," said Harold. "After they betrayed their own partner
team like that, it might be really tough to get anyone to trust
another team next year. I predict the judges will wait at least
another year before making any changes in the rules. Everyone will be
on the edge of their seats next year waiting to see if any of the
teams will work together and then who will betray whom first."

"That would probably be best for the ratings," agreed Bill. "It is
going to be interesting to see what surprises these selectees might
have in store for us in the next round as the field is reduced to
ten."

"In the meantime," intoned Harold, "let's look at the beginning of the
punishment phase for this round. I understand that Wild Whip William
is going to be doing the honors."

As he spoke a man dressed in what looked like a white cowboy outfit
walked out into the arena. He had a whip in each hand and was snapping
and cracking them in the air as he walked. He walked first over to the
two women hanging from their own posts and cracked the whips
repeatedly just short of touching them. The crowd roared their
approval. The two captives both twisted and turned so that they were
facing the posts and pressed their bodies tightly against the rough
wood.

"Twenty on the back or ten on the front," came a loud voice from the
speaker system. A few of the restrained women turned to face away from
their post, but most followed the example of the two red-yellows and
pressed the front of their bodies tightly against the uprights to
which they were bound.

As Wild Whip snapped his whips against the bodies of the two women,
their screams filled the stadium. When the twentieth blow had fallen
from each hand, another nine men, also dressed in white cowboy
outfits, came running into the arena snapping whips as they ran.

"Remember," Bill once again reminded the audience, "you can watch the
complete punishments of all seventy-five eliminated selectees by
purchasing the video package."

"And we will be back with even more action." Harold said, "following
this word from Eversharp, the sharpest name in shaving."

The screen once again faded to black.

***

"This phase is all about bodily control," explained a new announcer as
the image returned.

The familiar face of Harold then appeared in the corner of the screen
and said, "That's right, Frank. The judges have separated the
remaining twenty-five selectees into ten groups. Five of those groups
are two women groupings, the other five are groups of three, but the
object is the same for all of them."

"Yes, Harold," Frank replied. "And that object is to make the other
selectee lose control before you do using hand... tongue... body...
whatever it takes to force the other selectee to orgasm before she
does the same to you."

"It is not unusual for two of the selectees to work as a team and
overpower the third in this competition," added Harold. "And there is
nothing in the rules against that, but as soon as the third selectee
is out of the ring, it becomes a one-on-one competition."

"Because we are down to so few competitors," Frank said quietly.
"There are only two combat rings. That means we will have five rounds
to bring us down to the quarter-final ten."

There were two square platforms set up in the middle of the stadium.
Each looked very much like a boxing or wrestling ring, even to the
ropes which were strung tightly from four posts at the corners.

As the women for the first round were being led into the arena, Frank
appeared again on the screen. There was another man in a white coat
standing with him. "I am with Dr Nelson, who is going to explain to us
the steps that have been taken to prevent the scandal of two years
ago."

The doctor was holding a tube of some sort in his hand. "I'm sorry to
say," he began, "that there was some inappropriate action by game
officials two years ago. As you know, there is a lot of both legal and
illegal betting on these games and some of the more disreputable
elements in our society evidently bribed a medical technician to give
higher doses of the erotic stimulant to certain selectees and almost
none to one particular selectee."

He held the tube up to the camera. "This year we are using
auto-injectors that have been prepared by the stimulant's
manufacturer. In addition to that, the injector is connected directly
to the scale as the selectee is weighed so that the proper dose is
automatically calculated. And just to make sure, the shot is given
before the selectee steps off the scale." He lowered the tube and
completed his explanation by saying, "All of the injections will be
given simultaneously to all participants just before they enter the
ring, so all of the selectees will be equally aroused during the
competition."

Frank turned toward the camera and said, "That is good news for all
you out there who have bets on this round." 

Harold appeared in the corner of the screen and added, "And bad news
for the bookies who thought that they could fix these games." He
paused a few moments and then said, "Tell us about the action, Frank."

"It was obvious," he began with some smugness, "that one or two of
these selectees were sluts at heart because they were already stroking
themselves before the round even began. I think they knew that the
losers of this round are almost always resold as pleasure slaves and
wanted to lose. They will probably be bought or resold to some very
rich and influential men as bedroom slaves..." His voice dropped in
tone and volume, "... or perhaps, if they are of lower quality, to one
of the government-licensed brothels."

The camera showed that one of the women in the three-person ring was
standing in the corner of the ring stroking her own breast with one
hand and rubbing her slit with the other. A loud bell rang and she
walked to the middle of the ring and lay down on her back. The other
two women immediately pounced on her and began suckling at her tits
and lapping her pussy. In just a few moments her screams of orgasm
could be heard over the speaker system.

"That isn't as stupid as it looks," Frank explained. "If she had
refused to participate, she would have been given fifty strokes of the
cane, but submitting herself to her competition carries no additional
penalty."

"She will, however," Harold said from the corner, "still have to
service the twenty-five men who have paid for that privilege, but I
don't think that is really going to be punishment for this particular
selectee." He paused a moment and added, "Those gang sex punishment
sessions will, of course, be on the complete video package. And don't
forget, video packages of previous years are also available."

"Back to the action," shouted Frank as the camera zoomed in on the
second ring where a rather busty blue-eyed woman was grappling with a
much darker-skinned woman. From her complexion, the blue-eyed woman's
hair, if she had retained any, would probably have been blond. Her
opponent had her held tightly from behind and was rubbing her cunt
while she struggled to free herself.

The fair-skinned woman's legs began to shake as she fought to hold off
the orgasm that was boiling within her. She threw back her head and
began moaning. It was obvious that she was going to lose control very
soon. The darker-skinned woman threw her to the ground and dropped
down on top of her so that she could bury her face in the woman's
crotch.

The loud screams showed that the blue-eyed woman was having a
tremendous orgasm, but the darker woman did not stop lapping. Instead,
she continued driving her opponent higher and higher. When the
lighter-skinned woman was almost out of her mind with pleasure, the
darker-skinned woman thrust her own cunt down on her mouth and began
grinding herself on her opponent's face.

"I think that woman has read the rule books," laughed Frank. "It
doesn't say that you lose if you orgasm. It says that you lose if you
orgasm FIRST."

The camera returned to the ring as the dark-skinned woman grabbed her
own breasts and began squeezing them as she shouted out her climax.

"All of the competitions are on the full video," Frank said excitedly,
"but we have two others that we chose for our highlights. In this
first one..." a new image appeared with two women standing face to
face rubbing each other's cunt, "... it was a true match of bodily
control. Neither one of these selectees tried to overwhelm the other
physically, but from the opening bell just stood there stimulating
each other."

The video changed to a quad-split screen which contained a zoomed
closeup of each of the women's faces as well as their cunts with a
hand stroking and swirling their clits.

"Look at those faces," Frank shouted. "They are showing almost no
reaction to the stimulation." He laughed slightly, "I know a lot of
women who can be that un-responsive, but not once they have been given
that erotic stimulant."

"Look," Harold shouted from the corner, "number twenty-seven is
starting to crack."

The camera now went to a full-screen shot of the one woman's face as
her mouth opened slightly and she began panting and grunting. It then
went to a split screen showing both women's faces. One remained almost
totally impassive, while the other became more and more agitated.
Suddenly she broke and thrust her head back and groaned loudly.  A
light and bell signaled the judges decision that she had, indeed,
orgasmed and lost.

Interestingly, as soon as the bell sounded, her opponent also threw
her head back and shrieked out loudly, obviously also in orgasm. "That
was an amazing display of control," gushed Harold. "She was able to
hold off until after the bell. And remember, the loser isn't the one
who orgasms. It is the one who orgasms first."

"Our second highlight from this round," said Frank in his over-done
sports announcer voice, "is one of the most unusual rounds I have ever
seen. If you haven't seen or heard about it, I don't want to spoil the
surprise, so let's just watch."

The camera switched to a shot of one of the rings with two women
circling each other looking for an opening. Suddenly one of them dove
at the other, obviously with the intent of knocking her down. The
second woman went down, but it seemed to be an intentional fall and as
she fell she pulled her attacker forward with her. She ended up
sitting on the canvas with the other woman more or less in her lap. A
quick move of her right leg trapped her victim's legs . That was
followed immediately by her pushing down hard with her left arm,
pinning the would-be attacker in her lap.

"That looks like a useless move," laughed Frank, "because she allowed
her to turn face down before she pinned her, but watch this."

The woman in the ring began spanking her opponent. The sounds of the
slaps resounded in the stadium as they were picked up by the
microphone above the two women. The blows became harder and harder,
and soon the sounds of the slaps was joined by a low keening wail
interspersed with grunts that were in time with the smacks. After
about five minutes, the wail was louder and obviously sexual. It was
definitely not a cry of pain. A few minutes later, the struggling
woman's wail became a loud scream of climax and the bell sounded
ending the round.

Frank appeared back on the screen smiling broadly. "We investigated
this and found out that number forty-six had bragged in the pens the
night before that she couldn't lose this round because the only thing
that turned her on was pain."

Harold joined Frank's laugher and said, "I don't think giving away
your best secrets to your opponents was very bright, but maybe she
secretly wanted to lose this round. I can think of several rich
connoisseurs who wouldn't mind adding a pain-slut to their stable of
slaves."

He then turned to the screen and said, "Tomorrow afternoon is the
semi-final where we trim the field to the Final Five and the next
evening, in prime time, is the final. We will have those highlights in
just a moment, but first this word from Henry Trucks, a Man's Truck
for a Man's World."

***

After the brief black screen, Harold returned. "Jim will be bringing
us the commentary on the tug of war competition, but first I think we
should get some background on how the selectees are prepared for this
event."

"Yes, Harold," Jim responded. "These images were taken while the
selectees were being prepared for competition." The camera zoomed in
to a naked woman standing restrained between two large wooden posts.
"All of the selectees are prepared at the same time," explained Jim,
"so no one has the advantage."

A man in a white coat picked up a large, shiny, steel object. It was
more or less J-shaped and had a large ball on the short end of the J.
The longer portion of the J ended in a large loop. "That is a
specially-shaped anal hook," Jim said as he pointed to the image which
appeared on the screen behind him. The image had frozen and Jim was
using a pointer that made lines on the screen as he spoke.

"Obviously," he said, "this large bulb goes in the selectee's ass, but
the hook is not brought up the back as expected." He drew a circle
around a small ring on the inside curve of the hook. "This ring needs
to be positioned in the front to connect to a clit clip." A circle was
then drawn around the large loop on the long end. "A neck strap
connects here holding the hook tight against the front of the
selectee's body." He then drew a line straight out from the loop and
said, "And of course, the main pulling chain also connects to the
loop."

Motion returned to the video as the technician applied a glob of lube
to the hook and held it between the selectee's legs so that the large
bulb was aligned with her asshole. He pulled slightly forward and she
gasped as it slid within her. He then put a leather strap around her
neck and connected it to the large loop on the end of the hook.

After adjusting it slightly, he picked up something on a very short
metal chain and reached again between her legs. This time, her gasp
was sharper and accompanied by shrill grunt of pain as the clip closed
on her most tender spot. The camera zoomed in to show his hands as he
attached the chain to the small loop on the curve of the hook.

"If that hook is pulled away from her body, it pulls directly on her
clit," observed Jim.

The technician then picked up a short length of heavy chain and
clipped it to the large loop on the hook. Apparently it had some sort
of quick connect link on the end of it. He let that chain dangle in
front of the selectee and picked up two more smaller chains. One end
of these chains appeared to have a small quick connect link on it. The
other end looked very much like a Japanese Butterfly nipple clamp. The
tech pinched one of the clamps to open it and then positioned it on
the selectee's right nipple. The second clamp soon joined it, but on
the left nipple. After the three chains were in place, two security
men released her from the restraints and pulled her arms behind her
back. An arm restraint glove was slipped over her arms and secured in
place before she was walked out to the staging area.

"That's how they are prepared," said Jim. "And now lets watch as they
are connected for the contest."

The ten women were led out onto a large rectangular area in the center
of the arena. It looked almost like a section of a racing track with
five wide lanes marked on it. There was a very wide white line marking
the very center of the length of track. The middle portion of the
track on either side of the white line was colored a bright green. A
few yards down the track from the center line, there was a wide band
of yellow. And finally, the last fourth of the track on each end was
bright red. The women were brought to the middle of the track so that
there were five pairs of women standing at the center line facing each
other.

A voice over the speakers said, "Chain one," and the technicians or
doctors or whatever they were who accompanied the women out onto the
track quickly connected the paired women together by their larger
chains.

The voice then said, "Secondary chains," and the techs connected the
nipple chains. They crossed them before they connected them so that
they formed an X in the air between the two women. As soon as they had
finished, two judges raced onto the track to inspect the connections.
After viewing all five pairs, both judges turned toward the cameras-
or perhaps the stadium seats- and moved their arm up and down in what
was apparently a signal that all was ready.

"The rules of this contest are simple," Jim explained. "All you have
to do is drag your opponent into your red area. As soon your
opponent's foot touches your red area, you win."

There was a loud sound similar to the cannon that started the first
race and all ten women began pulling back against the chains. Jim
pointed out the obvious, "The problem for these selectees is that no
matter how you pull against your opponent, you are effectively pulling
with either your tits or your clit. If you bend slightly forward like
number three is doing, it protects your breasts, but it creates slack
in the neck strap and the hook moves away from your body."

The camera zoomed in on number three, and then moved to the lane
alongside her. "But if you put your shoulders way back like number six
there, you protect your clit but put additional pull on your nipples."

Harold appeared in the corner, "That's right, Jim, and those nipple
clamps tighten more as the tension increases on the chain. They aren't
going to slip off, but they are going to get really painful before
this contest is over."

"Whoa!" Jim yelled. "Look at that action in lane one."

One of the women was bucking her body forward and then snapping it
back in an exaggerated pelvic thrust. As she leaned forward, the
breast chains between them would go slack. The pelvic thrust action
that followed would cause her to lean back snapping the chains taught
once again. The woman chained to her screamed each time that happened
but more importantly, when the bucking woman again leaned forward and
pushed her ass back, she would also take a step backward.

"That has to be a very painful technique, but it is very effective. I
don't think that number nine even realizes that she is in the yellow
area. A couple more steps and she is going to be in the red. Annnnd
.... there's the bell. We have our first elimination in what has to be
close to record time."

One of the judges came running out accompanied by two security men and
disconnected the chains which bound the two women to each other. The
winner was allowed to walk back into the preparation area, but the
loser was taken to a set of posts where her arms were released from
the restraint glove and raised above her head to where they were
attached to the posts. The competition chains were still hanging from
her body.

The cameras switched back to the track where the four remaining pairs
were slowly moving back and forth within the green area. One of the
women screamed as her opponent pulled especially hard, tugging the
nipple clamps, causing them to squeeze down hard on her nipples. She
lost her concentration and stumbled forward slightly in an attempt to
relieve the tension. That was all the opening her opponent needed, and
she began backing up rapidly. Soon they were both standing in the red
area.

"That's another elimination," shouted Jim as the winner walked back to
the staging area and the loser was strung up between two more of the
posts. He started to say something about the selectee who had just
been eliminated when Harold shouted, "Back to the track... Back to the
track." and the cameras snapped back to the action.

One of the selectees of the couple in the center lane was slowly
rotating, pulling her opponent around with her. "What is she doing?"
Harold asked in amazement.

"I don't know," answered Jim. "If she goes outside her lane, or forces
her opponent outside the lane, she will automatically be disqualified.
Maybe that's what she trying to do."

Both announcers remained silent as the couple continued to circle
slowly within the center lane for several minutes before coming to a
stop. "Maybe she was trying to get her opponent dizzy," suggested
Harold.

"Whatever she was doing," replied Jim, "it didn't work." He laughed.
"All she did was wear herself out. Look at how easily she is being
dragged toward the red zone."

"Wait a minute! Wait a minute!" screamed Harold. "That is her own red
zone. She turned them around and her opponent doesn't realize it. She
is moving herself into the wrong red zone."

As soon as the foot of the woman who thought that she was winning
touched the red zone, a bell sounded and three judges ran onto the
track. "It looks like they are not sure who to declare the winner,"
Jim said. "I think one of the judges wants to disqualify our spinning
selectee, but the other two are saying that she didn't violate any
rules."

He held his hand against his earpiece for a moment and then said
excitedly, "It's official. That's another loophole they are going to
have to plug, but our spinning selectee has been declared the winner."

"And the loser really doesn't look happy about it," added Harold as
four security men rushed forward to subdue the very surprised- and
very angry- loser.

"Only two contests left in this round," Jim said. "This could go on
for a long time... or maybe not."

One of the four women on the track began screaming as her opponent
began doing a shoulder shake that pulled alternately on the nipple
chains.

"That has to be really painful for both of them," Harold noted.

"But its working," replied Jim. "Look at how much ground she has
gained. Another foot or two and..." Before he could finish his
sentence, the bell sounded and the judges ran onto the track to
declare the winner.

"Only one contest left now," Jim said excitedly. Several minutes
later, he added, "I don't remember this round ever going this long
before. We had a record-breaking win at the beginning, but this is
going on forever."

Two judges walked out onto the track and spoke loudly with the two
contestants. "I'm being told that they are being warned that they are
almost out of time," said Jim. "If one of them does not pull the other
into the red in the next five minutes, both will be declared losers."

An inset on the lower corner of the screen appeared showing the face
of what appeared to be a clock. It looked somehow wrong, and it took
the techs watching a moment to realize what was off. It was divided
into ten rather than twelve segments, but it was obviously a clock.
There were two hands on it, one moving rapidly like a second hand and
the other moving more slowly like a minute hand.

The two women continued to pull each other back and forth in the green
area of the track, but neither could gain the advantage. "Less than a
minute left," said Jim in almost a whisper. As the clock's hand
approached the top, the crowd began to chant. The voices from the
crowd were not translated and no one- except Ruthie- could understand
them, but it was obvious they were counting down the final seconds.

When the hand reached the top, two bells rang simultaneous and the
judges ran out onto the track to lead both contestants to the
restraining posts.

"These games have been absolutely amazing," Jim gushed. "The judges
will have a lot to discuss at their post games meeting."

Harold added in an almost equally gushing voice, "I have been
announcing these games for almost twenty years and I have never seen
an overtime disqualification. It has only occurred eleven times before
in the history of the games."

"Well," Jim said, "that means that there will be only four contestants
tomorrow for the finals. I have a feeling they will be as exciting and
surprising as the games have been up to this point."

He suddenly brightened and faced the camera smiling, "That does mean
however, that there are six, rather than five, who will be receiving
the bamboo cane punishments this afternoon. We don't have time for
those in our highlight show, but everything is shown in crystal
clarity in the full package available for purchase."

Harold re-appeared in the corner of the screen. "I'm sure tomorrow
will, indeed, be very exciting," he said enthusiastically. His image
was then brought to full screen as he said, "And we will be bringing
you all of the highlights of that final day following this word from
Bear Claw Lite, the Real Man's Beer for real men who are worried about
their weight."

***

When the image returned, it was dark and the stadium was illuminated
by banks of lights. The tracks and competition rings had been replaced
by what looked like a large stage. Harold appeared on the screen. He
beamed at the camera and said, "Welcome to the finals of The Lottery
Games." It was obvious that he was going to be doing the commentary on
the finals himself. 

"All of the events leading up to this have been direct competitions of
one sort or another," he said as he pointed to pictures of the four
finalists. "But in this round the selectee is effectively competing
against herself. She will be alone on the stage and will be judged by
the quality of her performance."

The camera panned across the stage which looked somewhat like a
combination of a bedroom and a strip club. There was a bed, but there
was also a stripper pole and three, small, round tables like you would
find in a club. There was one chair at each of the tables.

"The selectee," Harold explained, "will have to sexually satisfy three
of the judges, one in each of her holes, but it isn't just a matter of
getting them off. She will be judged by the entire judging panel on
the quality of her performance as she gets them aroused and also by
each of the three participant judges on the quality of her sexual act.

"And in addition to that," he gushed, "viewers on the video link cast
their votes. The panel of judges is 50% of her score; the three
participating judges is 25%; and on-line voting is 25%." He laughed
slightly, "But remember, this is a highlights video, so when the
comlink numbers appear on the screen, please don't call, no matter how
exciting you think a particular performer has been."

The four finalists were led into a waiting area on the edge of the
stage. They were now clothed and were wearing wigs and makeup. Each of
the four was a stunning beauty. A group of three judges approached
them and held up a small bag. They each reached into the bag and
pulled out a small tile with what was apparently a number on it. They
were then escorted to four chairs which Ruthie informed them were
numbered 1, 2, 3, and 4.

"Our first contestant will be on stage in just a moment," Harold
interjected. "So while they are setting up for her, I am going to
remind you that complete videos of all four performances from nine
different selectable camera angles is available on the complete video
of the 174th Annual Lottery Games. And if you order the deluxe set
which includes highlights from the past ten years, you will
automatically be enrolled in the drawing for ten tickets to this
year's 175th Anniversary Games."

Additional lights came up on the open stage as selectee finalist
number one walked up onto the stage. Music began to play and some
additional writing scrolled sideways across the bottom of the screen
as she sashayed across the stage in time to the music and moved toward
the judges. Her hips were swaying slightly, but not so much as to be
overdone. As she walked, her left leg slid out through the slit in the
dress with each step. When she neared the judges, she increased the
length of her stride so that the dress opened further revealing her
leg almost all the way up to the hip.

"She's going to get positive points for that," said Harold. "She is
projecting sexuality even before she starts."

Number one walked over to the small tables where the three judges sat
and leaned down slightly to stroke each one of them on the side of
their chin. As she leaned over, it was obvious there was no bra under
the loose-fitting dress and her breasts were obviously visible to the
judges as she reached down to touch them.

She walked back to the pole and made two upright swings around it.
Then, standing next to the pole, she turned her back to the three
judges and reached up behind her back to grab the zipper. She swayed
in time to the music as she pulled the top of the dress over her
shoulders so that it could begin to slip down her body. After it was
slightly below her waist in the back, she turned in a dance step so
that she was facing the three judges. Her hands were holding the
fabric slightly above her nipples. Taking a step forward, she allowed
the dress to continue its slide down her legs. As she continued to
walk toward the first judge, the dress slid to the floor revealing her
glistening cunt. She stepped effortlessly out of the dress and knelt
before the first judge, rubbing her breasts against the front of his
legs.

She then reached up between his legs, lowered his zipper, and pulled
his flaccid penis into her hands.  After stroking it a few times to
bring it to erect, she leaned in and took it into her mouth. She
bobbed up and down on his shaft while swaying her body in time to the
music. After several minutes, the judge stiffened slightly and
evidently spurted into her mouth.

"There is no such thing as bad sex," said Harold, shaking his head,
"but that is not a winning performance. She started off strong, but
has really fallen apart. Maybe she can redeem herself with the other
two judges."

As though she had heard him, Number One stood up and moved to the
second table. She bent down and kissed the judge. "Oh! Bad form,"
shouted Harold. "What is she thinking? Her mouth has to taste like
spunk!"

The judge pulled back slightly from her kiss and she reached down to
grab his tie. Pulling upward on the tie, she pulled the judge from the
chair and led him over to the bed. As the reached the bed, she slid
his coat over his shoulders and dropped it on the ground. His shirt
and tie soon followed. She then opened his belt and slid his pants to
the ground. He was wearing boxer-style underwear.

When she tried to slip his pants from his legs, she realized that she
should have first removed his shoes. Dropping to her knees, she
quickly untied the shoes and helped him step out of them. Finally she
was able to slide the pants and underwear from his legs.

She next climbed into the bed and reached back to draw the judge in
with her. Positioning him on his knees at the end of the bed, she
reached up to the headboard and grabbed what was evidently some sort
of lube. After pushing a rather large amount of the lube into herself,
she backed up against the judge and impaled herself on his now rigid
cock. She lowered her head to the bed and began rocking back and
forth, moving his prick in and out of her ass. Again the judge
stiffened slightly and apparently ejaculated, but it was obvious that
he was not pleased with the quality of the act.

"This is terrible," muttered Harold. "Don't these selectees realize
what is at stake? Doesn't anyone teach them how to please a man?" He
huffed rather loudly and added, "I'm not supposed to make statements
that might affect voting, but I assure you that you are not watching a
winning performance."

The final part of her performance was not much better. She did
remember to remove the third judge's shoes before his pants, but her
lackluster response once they were in the bed was not much better than
with the second judge.

After they had finished, the stage lights went dark and crew members
came on stage to reset for the next contestant. Harold looked directly
into the camera and said, "What can I say?" He shook his head once
again. "It is really sad to see someone go through all of that just to
blow their chance at the last moment."

The image flickered slightly as it changed from Harold's live
commentary to his later comments for the highlight program.
"Normally," he began, "we would present snippets from each of the five
performances. But this year, to begin with, there are only four
finalists. And there was what has to have been both the worst and the
best performances in decades in the final round. So we have decided to
present both of those performances in their entirety."

He pressed his lips together in and shook his head slightly. "You have
obviously just seen one of the worst performances in the past twenty
years. In a moment you will see one of the best... but first a word
from Twin Peaks Adult Products, for those times when you want the best
in restraints and adult pleasure toys.

***

"Wouldn't mind seeing that commercial," said Ryan with a laugh. The
others watching gave him a strange look as the image returned to the
screen and the announcer, Harold's, face.

"We are back for our final segment," he said, smiling broadly at the
camera. "These games have been some of the best that I have seen, and
this final performance is the best in my memory."

The scene behind him shifted to the stage for the finalist's
performance. "I should explain," he said, freezing the image and once
again drawing on it with his pointer, "that each contestant can
request special arrangements or additions to the layout of the stage.
Number four, who performed last, requested several additions to the
basic layout."

He drew three small circles on the screen. "First, notice these valet
stands alongside the bed." He drew four more circles on the bed itself
and added, "And notice the shape of the corner posts on the bed. Those
are by special request of the finalist. And finally, notice that the
stripper pole has been reinforced and is anchored with guy wires that
stretch to large wooden poles positioned outside the stage area."

He turned to face the camera. "Number four also requested special
music for her performance which she provided to the judges. She had
obviously given this a LOT of thought even before she was selected.
And once she was selected, she definitely had a plan to make it to the
finals. She was that winner in record time from the previous round.
Let's look at her performance in the finals."

The image cut back to the action. The stage was dark- or as dark as it
could be with the regular stadium lighting still on. The new panel of
three judges were seated at their tables. Everything was quiet.
Suddenly the music cut in with a loud blare of trumpets and four
spotlights snapped on showing number four, fully clothed in a black,
sequined evening dress, hanging sideways on the pole by her legs. Her
arms were cloaked in what appeared to be black, elbow-length gloves,
but her hands, themselves, appeared bare.

As the music began to play, she began slowly circling the pole.
Evidently she was twisting herself around the pole using her one hand
which was gripping the pole above her. She continued turning until she
was facing away from the judges' tables. She reached down to the pole
with her other hand and released her feet and then did what was
effectively a handstand straight out from the pole so that she was
once again facing the three judges' tables.

Number four slid her lower hand up the pole slightly and then slid her
upper hand also up the pole. She repeated this several times until she
had raised herself to the desired height. Then, without moving her
legs, she bent her lower arm and slowly rotated her body until she was
standing on the ground.

"One of the judges is applauding with the crowd," said Harold in
amazement.

As her feet touched the ground, the music changed and she began moving
away from the pole. Her whole body was swaying with the music as she
moved toward the first judge's table. She held her left hand up to her
mouth and apparently bit the end of the faux glove because as she
pulled her arm back, the black glove-like sleeve remained dangling
from her teeth.

She bowed deeply to the judge, laying the glove on the table
immediately in front of him, and then danced back towards the center
of the room. She swayed with the music as she spun slowly in the
spotlight. When she was once again facing the judges, the second glove
was dangling from her teeth.

She again danced over to the tables. Many in the audience, as well as
the three judges, were moving slightly with her swaying dance as she
made her way to the second judge. Again she bowed deeply, and again
she laid the glove on the table with her teeth.

The music changed into something that sounded like a tango and she
moved back toward the pole with large steps. Once there she stood on
her hands next to the pole facing it and grasped the pole with her
legs. As she did so, the dress fell over her upper body to revealed
her legs, which were encased in non-transparent, black stockings which
were held up with a black satin garter-belt. A pair of almost
thong-like panties covered her crotch.

She moved her arms so that her lower body was touching the pole and
then gripped it tightly with her legs so that she could arch her back
until her head was upright and looking out at the judges. Her dress,
which had fallen over her head as she hung upside down, was in her
hands.

The music changed once again to something that sounded like a
shepherd's pipe. As the flute-like music played a haunting refrain,
she slowly pulled the dress upward until it came over her head
revealing an almost transparent black lace brasier holding her ample
breasts.

Once the dress was totally clear of her body, she allowed herself to
slide rapidly down the pole. Just before her stomach would have hit
the ground, she tucked her body downward and released her legs so that
she could do a tumbler's roll onto the stage. Her roll was perfect and
she ended up on one knee in front of the third judge holding the dress
in her hands and presenting it forward almost as if it were an
offering to the gods.

She set the dress on the table in front of him and moved back toward
the first judge's table. The music had changed to what, in our world,
would be called a soft "bump and grind" and she stood with her eyes
closed rotating in place while she pulsed her pelvis in time to the
music. When she was once again facing the judge, she reached down, and
in exact time with the drum emphasis in the music released one of the
garter clips. She then rotated in place once again until she was
facing the second judge and released another clip. Another rotation to
the third judge and the third clip was released. One final rotation
brought her around once again to the first judge and the fourth and
final clip was opened exactly in time with the beat of the drum.

She then stood facing the judge with her hips and pelvis rotating and
thrusting in time to the music as she slowly slid the garter-belt down
over her hips. The stockings themselves evidently did not really need
to the support of the garter-belt and remained securely in place
encasing her legs in their blackness.

She continued to slide the belt downward with her hands until it was
past the rounded part of her ass and almost to her knees. She then let
it fall slowly on its own as she gyrated in time to the music. When it
was finally on the floor, and again in time to the drums in the music,
she staged-kicked the garter-belt upward into her hands. Then with a
slightly exaggerated throwing of her hips, she walked over to the
judge's table and on the final beat of the music, slammed the belt
solidly onto the table in front of him.

The music changed to something that sounded more like a waltz and she
glided away from the table toward the center of the stage. She was
flowing over the floor almost as if she were dancing with a partner.
It even looked like she were grasping someone's shoulders and her
movements to unclasp the front of her bra were almost not noticeable
until suddenly she was holding the bra in her hands as she danced with
her breasts bare.  The spotlights reflected off a light dusting of
glitter near her areoles and nipples. She spun several times across
the floor and with the same graceful motion with which she had removed
her bra, she placed it on the table in front of the second judge.

The music continued with the waltz as she spun across the floor moving
closer with each spin to the third judge. "How she is going to remove
those panties in time to the music?" Harold, the announcer wondered
aloud.

In answer to his question, she stopped at the judge's table, right
alongside judge three, and stood there swaying and bobbing with the
music. She bent over and kissed him slightly on the cheek and
evidently said something, because he reached out and put a finger on
each side of her hips in the edge of her panties and slowly began
pulling them downward.

They were only slightly below her knees when she stepped out of them
and danced away. The judge lifted them to his face and sniffed them
before placing them on the table in front of him.

Number four then returned to the pole and once again lifted herself
onto the pole with her legs. She again moved higher on the pole and
reached down to grab the pole with her arms, only this time she
brought her legs in front of the pole so that she was effectively
standing on the pole with her feet just inside her arms. The bent-over
position of her body showed her most intimate parts to the judges and
the audience as she circled the pole at an ever-increasing speed.

The music once again changed to a rather bland style of pop and she
suddenly snapped her legs back to straight and released her hands from
the pole. She flew through the air flipping and twisting and landed on
her feet directly in front of the first judge. She smiled at him and
reached down to take his hands in hers. Lifting him from his seat, she
danced him back toward the bed. Once alongside the bed, she slid his
coat from his shoulders and hung it carefully on a hanger on one of
the valets. She then stood behind him and slid her hands up and down
his chest while she slowly loosened his tie and took it from around
his neck. The tie, she placed around the top of the hanger on which
the suit coat was hung.

Still remaining behind him, she slowly unbuttoned his shirt, pausing
occasionally to slide her hands under the shirt to stroke his abdomen.
When the shirt was fully unbuttoned, she pulled it from the waistband
of his pants and slid it off his shoulders. It was placed on a
separate hanger on the valet.

She then guided him to sit on the bed and knelt before him to remove
his shoes. These she carefully placed on a shelf at the bottom of the
valet. She next removed his socks and draped them over a small rod on
the side of the valet.

The music changed slightly, but was still an innocuous pop song of
some sort, as she once again pulled him to his feet and stood behind
him to loosen his belt and slacks. This took several moments as she
slowly rubbed her breasts and nipples around his back while she worked
with his belt and zipper. Finally she lowered his pants slowly to the
floor and lifted his ankles slightly, one at a time, so that she could
pull the pants clear of his legs. She held the pants up and carefully
folded them before hanging them over a special hanger on the valet.

She then turned the judge slightly so that he was facing her. She went
down on her knees and grasped the edge of his boxers with her teeth
and pulled downward. She had to release her grip and move from one leg
to the other several times before she was able to tug the boxers to
the floor. There was a slight giggle from the audience as she
struggled to pull them past his now prestigious erection. Once the
boxers were clear of his feet, she crawled, carrying them in her
mouth, over to the valet and draped them across one of the lowest rods
on the side of the valet.

Standing once more, she returned to the judge and danced and swayed as
she rubbed her body against his until the end of the song. When the
music changed, she led him to the bed and indicated that he should sit
near the headboard.

She then reached behind him and took something from a shelf. It was
apparently lube of some sort. She walked to the end of the bed and
began smearing the lube on the bedpost, which stood about a foot or so
above the bed. After wiping her hands on a towel which she returned to
under the bed, she danced out so that she was facing away from the bed
and slowly lowered herself onto the bedpost.

She bobbed in time to the music, allowing the post to penetrate her
ass just slightly more with each bounce. After several minutes of
this, she raised herself back up to a full standing position, turned
and blew a kiss to the judge waiting on the bed, and then returned to
the tables to get the second judge.

Her routine with the second judge was identical to what she did with
the first judge except that she placed him at the foot of the bed
before once again ass-fucking herself on the corner post. This time,
as she was bobbing up and down, Harold appeared in the corner to
comment, "She is stretching herself out so that the anal portion of
this performance will be less painful for her. But that is not the
only reason," he added. "If she is too tight, it can be painful for
the man as well as the woman. If she stretches herself just right, the
man can enter easily, but the anal ring will still give a very tight
and wonderful sensation."

Number four returned for the third judge. Again the routine was the
same, but this time the judge was wearing "tighty-whities" and she had
to struggle for several moments to get them to pull downward over his
very stiff prick. Once his briefs were draped over the rod on the
valet, she led him to the center of the bed and placed him on his
back. She straddled him and slowly lowered herself down on his immense
member.

Once in place she nodded at the second judge and he moved into place
behind her. It took him a moment to position his knees between the
other judge's legs, but soon he was in place and she guided his prick
into her ass. She then nodded at the first judge and he positioned
himself so that she could take him into her mouth.

"A King's Crown," Harold said with more than a little amazement and
wonder in his voice. "The rules say she must take one judge in each of
her openings, but it doesn't say how she should do that. I don't
remember a finalist ever doing a King's Crown... and I've never seen a
King's Crown done with such finesse."

The camera cut back to the scene in the bed. The contestant was moving
her mouth and body in time with the thrusts from all three judges. At
one point she reached up with one hand and massaged judge number one's
rosebud. At another point, she stopped thrusting with her pelvis and
concentrated on wiggling her ass back and forth on judge number two.
It was apparent that she was attempting to bring all three of them to
a simultaneous climax.

The face of the first judge began to take on that pre-orgasmic look of
almost agony and she suddenly began thrusting rapidly against the
second and third judges. The whole stadium heard the low growling
groan as the three judges erupted within her at the same time. That
was followed almost immediately by a loud wailing cry as finalist
number four screamed out her own orgasm as the stage lights snapped to
black.

"I don't think that was faked," said Harold. "But even if it was, it
was a magnificent finale to a superior performance. I don't think that
I have seen a better finalist performance in all the years I have been
helping broadcast these games."

The image of the stage at the stadium faded and Harold appeared on
full screen. "I don't think," he began, "that we have to show you the
final vote totals for you to know who was the winner. I interviewed
finalist number four after the games and she told me this."

The image dissolved to a shot showing Harold standing beside the
winning finalist. She was still clothed only in her black stockings.
"You have won the 174th Annual Lottery Games," he said, "and the
question everyone is asking themselves is `How did you come up with
such a spectacular program for the finals?'"

"Well, Harold," she answered, "ever since I was a little girl I knew
that I would be a selectee and I knew that I would make it to the
finals. I worked to keep my body in perfect condition; I took dance
lessons, from ballet to pole dancing; and I worked with choreographers
and musicians as much as my parents could afford to develop the
routine you saw tonight."

She giggled slightly, "One of the choreographers taught me that buck
and snap routine to use in the tug of war. I had a Yugu Master help me
with meditation techniques and I practiced that move using springs in
my daddy's garage until I could stand the pain. My whole life has been
devoted to winning these games."

The image returned to Harold standing alone and he said, "That whole
interview, along with many hours of additional footage of the games
themselves, is included in the complete video set. And here is Jim
with details of how to order.

After a very short black screen, Harold returned with Leroy, Bill,
Frank, and Jim standing behind him. "That wraps up our coverage of the
174th Annual Lottery Games. Remember to be with us on  Drune 8 for
this year's games. I and our whole team will be here as the 175th
Anniversary Presentation of the Annual Lottery Games will be shown
right here on this video channel."

The screen then returned to the computer main screen.  

***

 Ryan cleared his throat. "Ruthie," he asked, "do you think you can
somehow copy that off the alien machine onto our network so that I can
study it further?"

Several of the female techs looked at him with a combination of
wonderment and disgust. "What!?" he barked. "They gave it to us so
that we could understand their culture. I need to study it further to
see what else we can glean from it."

"I'll see what I can do," answered Ruthie.

"In the meantime," Johansson interjected, "I am going to see if it's
possible to pick up radio, TV, or internet noise through any of the
other portals. 

The next day, Lieutenant Commander Ryan Wetherington called a meeting
of the entire project team and announced. "I think that we need to
find a way to send an ambassador from our dimension to this other
world. When they re-establish contact, I want you to see if there is
some way that I can go over to their side to attend these games... I
mean, to speak with their government and talk about what we can do for
each other."

Ruthie spoke up. "We don't have to wait until the portal is totally
open," she said. "There is a message program on the alien computer
that is still connected to their system." She shrugged.
"Unfortunately, I am the only one who is able to read it, and we
haven't figured out a translation program. But I will see what I can
work out with Breanna... that's the one who sent me a message
overnight."

"Do that!" ordered Ryan. "And see if you can get something put in
place before those games begin." With that he walked out of the room. 

Seventeen voices whispered, "Asshole!" as he left.

***

A week later The Portal Project team was again assembled in the
conference room. "Well," Ryan began, "what progress have we made in
the past week?"

"None of the other portals show any radio activity," answered
Johansson.

"But the people in portal seven are very anxious to establish
relations with this dimension," said Ruthie with a smile. "There is
one problem, though."

She paused and pressed her lips together like she was afraid to
continue.

"And that problem is...?" Ryan asked sarcastically.

"The problem is that they highly recommend that the ambassador not be
you," Ruthie said quickly. "They recommend that the ambassador from
their side be Breanna, and that the ambassador from this side also be
a woman."

"Didn't you see how women are treated on their side of the portal?" he
responded with a huff. "We need to send a man, and I am exactly the
kind of man that is needed."

"But sir," said Johansson, "they have explained that..."

Ryan cut him off with a shout, "I don't care what they have explained.
When we re-establish portal contact set up the transfer for me to go
through, and make sure that it is set up so that I can attend those
games..." He coughed lightly and looked around before completing with,
"... and get a full flavor of that culture and society."

"If you insist, sir," Johansson answered. "But I think you should put
that order in writing."

"Good insight, Midshipman," he snapped back. "I will even make it a
direct order so that none of you dweebs can change things at the last
minute."

"Yes, sir," Ruthie answered.

Ryan smiled as he left the room. Things were finally beginning to turn
around. Ruthie even called him "sir."

***

The thirty days finally passed and the entire team was gathered in the
project control room for the anticipated re-establishment of full
contact. Several team members had strongly suggested that the
successful contact be reported to the supervisory scientists or at
least to the congressional liaison, but Ryan had insisted that such
reporting wait until a second contact "verified results" of the portal
exploration.

When Johansson threatened to go over his head, Ryan wrote out another
direct order forbidding any outside discussion of the discovery until
after the second contact. He even invoked the national security clause
in their contracts to bind the civilians to secrecy.

As the clock slowly approached the anticipated opening of the portal,
Ryan stood in the control room in his full dress uniform. Ruthie once
again said to him, "Sir, you really need to reconsider. They said it
would be best if we sent a woman. You have to understand that..."

He cut her off angrily with, "I understand everything, Ruthie. Just
establish the damn link!"

"Yes sir," she answered. "Breanna indicated that their power supply
was damaged last time and that they can only hold the link for a very
short time. Even that may overload or damage their system. They were
going to postpone contact, but it is imperative for her that we
establish the link today. 

"Then do it!" he snapped.

A moment later, the monitor again cleared slightly and dimly showed
the alien control room. An officer of some sort was standing near
their end of the portal. Ruthie typed something into the alien
computer. "I told them to begin transfer," she said.

Ryan stepped forward toward the portal which was slowly growing
brighter. As he stepped through the swirling opening, another figure
stepped out into The Portal Project control room. Shortly thereafter,
a burst of smoke could be seen in the control room on the monitor and
the screen returned to the pixelated garbage that indicated the
connection had been broken.

"Welcome to our world," said Ruthie. "You must be Breanna."

"Yes," the man answered, "but in this dimension, I don't think that
name quite fits. Perhaps you should call me Bryan." 

He looked at the back of his hands and felt the skin of his face and
neck. "The person who went through from this side must have been
considerably older than me," he said quietly. "She... he will be
pleased to be eighteen again on the other side of the portal."

He paused, straightened herself- himself- to full height and said,
"Where is your commanding officer?"

"Commander Ryan was the one who transferred through the portal with
you," answered Johansson. "I am second in command. We were ordered by
our commander not to contact our superiors before the transfer, but
arrangements are being made now for you to speak with our government
leaders."

Breanna- now Bryan- turned to Ruthie and said, "I thought your
commanding officer was a male. Did you not tell him that your
ambassador had to be a woman?"

"We tried," answered Ruthie, "but he wouldn't listen." 

"Does he not know that everything reverses when you go through the
portal?" he asked.

"We tried to tell him that, too," answered Johansson, "but he wouldn't
listen."

"All he was really interested in," said one of the other techs, "was
attending the games."

"Oh," replied Bryan replied with a laugh, "he will do that. There
should be a spot for him. I was scheduled to attend the games myself."

Her face suddenly turned serious. There was obvious concern in her
voice as she said, "Did he not know that he would be a woman on our
side of the portal?"

"He does now!" Ruthie and Johansson answered in unison. Both were
smiling.

"Why didn't you try to stop him. He doesn't stand a chance in the
games." Then to answer his own question Bryan said, "I know. You tried
to tell him, but he wouldn't listen."

Ruthie and Johansson again answered in unison. Their "Yes," was joined
by several other techs in the room. One strong voice added, "As
usual."

Bryan shook his head slowly from side to side as he said. "We have a
word for a man like that on our side of the portal."

"What's that?" asked Ruthie.

The alien ambassador looked over toward the now closed portal and
replied, "Asshole!"
