A Smothery Comeuppance

[CaptainL]

Talia sat down next to Jasmine, listening closely as she answered her questions. "No murders since you took the throne, huh? That's impressive. Either they're really good at hiding it here, or they're just that afraid of your booty," she added with a chuckle, reaching over and giving Jasmine a playful smack on the rear. However, with the next thing out of her mouth, it seemed as though Jasmine was starting to catch on to her - and when she heard that, Talia went still. She sat up straight, the color draining away from her face as her muscles went stiff. If Jasmine asked her more questions, things might start to get a little...tense.

What came next didn't help much, either. In her typical animated fashion, Jasmine demonstrated the punishments she had in mind, punching at the air a few times - and every time her fist met its invisible target, Talia could feel a bead of sweat running down her back. Now she had to imagine what it would feel like to be on the other end of those punches - and the thought certainly wasn't pretty. It was clear from all the matches Talia had watched that Jasmine was a heavy hitter, but seeing it on the screen didn't do any justice to the power Jasmine wielded up close and in the flesh. And all that power could be turned against her. Maybe, she started to wonder, this wasn't such a good idea after all.

And of course, there would be smothers involved. Maybe getting a face full of Jasmine's famous ass would be a little more pleasant than a beatdown, but Talia still bit her lip when she saw the fervor Jasmine described the act with - almost as if she had gotten lost in her own head from the mere thought of it all. She glanced nervously back and forth, afraid to let her eye contact linger for long. What would it mean for her, she thought, if Jasmine liked the thought of smothering her out this much? Certainly, she wouldn't hold back on it...

She would eventually snap out of her thoughts, but when she turned back to face Talia and asked her why she brought up grand theft in the first place, it hardly made the prospect any better for her. The Latina jumped up in place, sputtering and clearing her throat. This could well blow her cover, so she needed to come up with an excuse, and fast! "Uh...er...I was just curious, and it was the first thing that came to my mind?" Chuckling nervously, she shrugged her shoulders, and hoped to God that Jasmine wouldn't read much more into it.

After a pause, Talia cleared her throat. "Uh...did you have anything else to show me on the tour?" Maybe, she thought, if she turned Jasmine's thoughts elsewhere, she might not put two and two together. Talia herself wouldn't mind the distraction either!

Jasmine very much appreciated the playful smack Talia gave her on her backside, giggling happily in response. The two of them seemed to have pretty good chemistry, despite Talia's alternative and malicious motives for being here anyway. And it was those motives that made things all the move uncomfortable for Talia, when Jasmine opted to question what she had inquired of her! The Mighty Monarch described and animated the type of justice she'd inflict on someone who commited grand theft, making Talia both visibly and audibly nervous!

Despite getting a little lost in her smother dom trance at the end there, Jasmine did pick up on Talia's suddenly anxious demeanor. This was partly why the empress questioned her guest afterwards. And this only made Talia even more nervous, as she showed even clearer physical signs of her discomfort! After Talia claimed she was just curious, Jasmine narrowed her eyes at her guest slightly. Previously, Jasmine had indeed brushed off Talia's behavior as curiosity. But now, her fellow middleweight had acted in a way that indicated something more may have been at play. "Hmmmm..." Jasmine pondered, staring right into Talia's eyes. Ms. Cake was trying to get a better read of her. Though it was unclear whether Jasmine was anyazling Talia with simple curiosity or genuine suspicion!

Fearing the latter, Talia would wisely opt to change topics. "Oh yes!" Jasmine replied, perking back up. Reminding the tough tomboy of the tour was a good call. Jasmine was still excited about it, as Talia hadn't given her an explicit reason not to be. "We're almost done, so we should get going. Even if it's fun to hang in my dungeon and talk about my butt smothers and power punches..."~

Punch

With that remark, Jasmine would give Talia a "playful" punch in the arm. "Bop!" She chirped. But there would definitely be enough force to it to make most people wince, rub their shoulder, and/or yep a bit. It was pretty standard behavior for Jasmine to slug her friends like this, mildly annoying them in the process. But IF Jasmine had been a even tad suspicious of Talia, it COULD also be interpreted as a warning...

But Jasmine's wholesome disposition didn't seem to indicate this. "C'mon girl! We'll end the tour, once we get to my royal bedroom! Just follow meeeeeeee!"~ The orange-haired beauty beamed, standing up and motioning for Talia to follow her out of the cell. She'd lead her guest out of the Smother Dungeon, and on their way to the next destination!

[CaptainL]

Talia had been confident the whole time she had been here. She was, after all, a talented and well-practiced social engineer, and she knew how important it was to be in the right mindset if you were pulling off a scheme like this. How could you try to convince someone else of what you wanted when you weren't quite sure of it yourself? However, when Jasmine began describing what sort of punishment she'd have in store for the exact crime Talia had been plotting ever since she stepped off the plane, that was enough to make even the devious reality TV star second-guess herself. When she was showing off the sorts of powerful punches she had at her disposal, Talia could only imagine how it would feel to take them herself, and that made her wince as she shrank back, hugging her arm a little closer to her side. If she got caught, she thought to herself, she'd be in a world of trouble, and she wouldn't forget about it any time soon.

The obvious advice in a situation like that was to simply not get caught. But then, it didn't seem like that would be so easy, either - in fact, when Jasmine looked directly into Talia's eyes, the redhead let out a soft gasp and jumped up a little straighter. What was this about - was she on to her? Talia's heart began to race in her chest as a bead of sweat traced down her brow. Had she inadvertently blown her own cover? And if so...what was next on her horizon? "Uhh...hello-?" she blurted out, biting her lip. "W-Why are you looking at me like that?"

Fortunately for Talia, Jasmine's attention was diverted only a moment later, when she suddenly remembered the tour she was on - and she was ready to throw herself back into it with the same bubbly enthusiasm as ever. For a second, Talia just looked off after her with confusion. Wait, was she really going to shift gears this suddenly? Perhaps it would work out for the best that the Empress seemed to have a short attention span. In fact, the more that Talia thought about that, the more a wicked smile played its way across her face. If she was this easily distracted, it'd surely be no problem at all to catch her unaware when she needed to most...

Though, only a second later, Jasmine would remind Talia of just what the dangers of being caught were, when she delivered a solid punch to her arm! Even if Jasmine was just playing around, she didn't know her own strength. The force of the blow caused Talia to hiss through her teeth as she jumped back, clutching at her arm, where a sore spot radiated through her from where Jasmine had struck. "Ow-!" she yelped. She gulped at that thought - if Jasmine's punches could hurt this much when she was only being friendly, she could only imagine what she'd be like with genuine anger backing her up...

Either way, Jasmine was moving along - and if Talia wanted to ambush her at the right moment, she couldn't let her out of her sights. She had to be ready! "R-Right, coming-!" she said, hurrying off after Jasmine as fast as she could.

After a bit of a tense psychological moment between Talia and Jasmine, the mood grew lighter and the palace tour continued. Now leaving the Smother Dungeon, Jasmine began taking her special guest on a journey to her bedroom. The two walked side-by-side, through the impressive hallways of Jasmine palace.

"It's a bit of a walk to get there from here. If you want, I can pass the time by telling ya some BUTT smother stories!" Jasmine offered, before giving Talia a "playful" hip bump. But just like that earlier "playful" punch, there would be enough force to it to knock Talia for a bit of a loop. Certainly enough to disrupt her balance at least. "Haha! I've got plenty of them! And they're all true too!"

Regardless if whether or not Talia showed explicit interest in hearing these stories, Jasmine would begin telling them anyway. "So there's my close friend Edith Una, the Hidden Gem. Real professional, fancy and a kind and very capable wrestler. I used to play lots of smother pranks on her back in the day. In the locker-room, in the shower, even in the gym! But I went a little too far, so now I only smother her in moderation. Now I try to save the FULL extent of my smothery urges for folks who REALLY have it coming."

"Like Karbon Mannering! That jerk stole my bestie Melony's crown, after she squashed him in a match fair and square! So I got my other friend Arachne to help me sneak into his apartment. Then I took my bestie's crown back from him, before placing him under Smothery House Arrest! I stuck around and smothered him in his own home for a long time, but I know part of him liked it. Hehehehe."

As they continued to walk, Jasmine noticed they were getting near her personal gym. "Oooh! Let's cut through here. It's a shortcut." Jasmine explained, leading Talia into the gym. The punching bags that Jasmine had pummeled off their hinges were still on the floor. Suddenly, Jasmine paused, as she had recalled yet another smother story!

"Then there was Tore Hensen! That tool stole MY crown, while I was taking a power-nap before our match! He even wore it on his head to mock me, during his ring entrance! So once the bell rang, I KNOCKED HIS LIGHTS OUT WITH A SINGLE PUNCH! That was enough to win the match and get my crown back, but I couldn't leave the audience without a proper show. So I gave him a post-match booty beatdown, before taking him backstage for EVEN MORE SMOTHERING!"

Jasmine hummed and moaned suggestively, as she hugged herself and shook her wide hips around. She had reentered that smother trance Talia had seen before, simply by thinking about these past smothery encounters! "I can still feel his face struggling beneath my unstoppable cake...it was...GREAT!" With hearts practically emitting from her head, Jasmine was very much distracted. If Talia was still down to continue her mission, she now had the opportunity to do so, even if all signs pointed to it being ill-advised!

[CaptainL]

Talia followed closely behind Jasmine as she turned back to the hall, but as the Empress knocked her hip into her own, she stumbled, doubling over forward and nearly falling over before she managed to catch herself at the last moment. "Gah-! Ah...I'm okay," she said, standing back up and dusting herself off. Even still, when Jasmine, unprompted, decided to go off on a string of smother stories, Talia slowed in her step a little. Jasmine's behind, from the way she was building it up, could well be a lethal weapon - she had to ask herself, did she really want to take a risk in attracting her ire? "Uh..." she began, her mouth opening but nary a sound coming out as she tried to think over what she could say that wouldn't give away her scheme. With how excited Jasmine was recounting her exploits, Talia had no doubt that she wasn't going to hold back in using her backside against her...and she certainly knew how to use it, too.

So too, it wasn't lost on Talia that many of Jasmine's stories revolved around people going after the two Empresses' crowns - either Jasmine's herself, or Melony's. The very scheme she was plotting right now. "Smothery...House Arrest? Is that, like, a thing now?" she blurted out in abject bewilderment. If anything, too, the gusto with which Jasmine launched into her final story, getting so caught up in the thrill of it that the world around her seemed to fade away, could only make the color drain away from Talia's face. She chuckled nervously a few times. She didn't know how healthy it was that Jasmine was getting this excited about smothering people...but it certainly wouldn't be healthy for her.

Then, though, Talia stopped. As she blinked a few times, it hit her - and a wicked smile began to grow across her face. Jasmine wasn't focused on reality...which meant that she was wide open. She had been waiting for a chance to strike, and one of them had just fallen into her lap - she couldn't let it slip through her fingers!

"Whoah, huh. Those guys have a lot of nerve, don't they?" she mused. "I'd say they were making a mistake..."

But just then, while Jasmine was still lost in thought, Talia struck! She suddenly ducked down and slammed a fist squarely between the Empress's legs, hoping to paralyze her with a quick low blow! If that worked, she'd snatch the crown right off her head! "...namely, getting caught! Hah, didn't see that one coming, didja? Loser!"

Any hesitation Talia might have had about attracting Jasmine's ire was forgotten now - now, all she felt was the smug satisfaction of outwitting the Booty Empress in her own palace! That set off an adrenaline rush, and the grin on her face was only growing wider from it! She waved the crown tauntingly at Jasmine before taking off down the hallway, looking to get far away from her.

[dddybee]

From the "playfully" painful punches and hip attacks, to the Smother Dungeon, and now to these stories of smothery comeuppance. All these signs pointed to the fact that provoking Empress Jasmine Cake was simply not a good idea! The Mighty Monarch was both loved and feared. Was Smothery House Arrest a thing now? It was if the royal decreed it was!

However, as powerful as Jasmine was, she was not without her weaknesses. And Talia seemed to pick up on one of them, how distracted Jasmine could get by her deep smothery desires! So as Jasmine thought about the high she got from force-feeding people her cake, Talia finally made her move! "UGHH!" Jasmine grunted, as she dropped down to her knees. "Wh-What the fudge...?!" Talia had just nailed her with a dirty sneaky low blow! And to make matters worse, she then proceeded to steal Jasmine's regal emerald crown off her dome!

Danger Theme

Jasmine's eyes widened with fury and shock, as Talia had the nerve to mockingly wave the stolen crown at her. "YOU-...!" But before she could say anything else, Talia fled the gym to try and make her great escape down the hall! Jasmine paused for a moment, letting her righteous fury and indignation really sink it. But she couldn't pause for too long or risk Talia getting away! Realistically, Jasmine could have sounded the alarm. She could have gotten her many guards to apprehend this thief for her. But Jasmine wanted to deal with this....personally.

As Talia made her way down the hall, she would soon hear a voice booming behind her. "YOU REALLY STILL WENT THROUGH WITH THIS?!" Jasmine yelled, as she spirited at Talia like a wild predator! The tough tomboy had fought through the pain of the low blow. It wasn't the first time she suffered one after all. And now, she had Talia in her fiery sights! Her words revealed that after a certain point, she HAD grown suspicious of Talia. But figured that after all the deterring signs she gave her, Talia would abandon any malicious schemes she may have! Though since Talia committed anyway, it was time for some serious punishment!

And if all went her way, this punishment would start with Jasmine catching up to Talia! Jasmine would turn and aim a running hip attack into Talia's own butt. And if it landed, the stupidly strong impact would surely sent the offender flying through the hall! "KAAAAA-BOOOOOOOOOOM!"

[CaptainL]

For a brief moment, Talia was left weighing her options. Was this really such a good idea? She'd witnessed firsthand how much power Jasmine could pack behind her backside, whether she was trying to or not - and not only could she hit hard, she was passionate about it, if the fact that she practically fell into a trance thinking of the smothers she had unleashed on her victims was any indication. But that same trance was also Talia's ticket to pulling off the heist of a lifetime. She quickly realized that she would never have a better time to make her move - and as soon as Jasmine had dropped to her knees, she snatched the crown off her head and took off running!

Her heart was pounding with a surge of adrenaline as she sped down the halls, her legs pumping at the air as fast as they could carry her! Part one of the plan was taken care of - she had the crown! Part two was to get as far away from Jasmine as possible before she could strike back...where exactly she would run to, the former reality star realized in mid-sprint that she hadn't actually thought that far. For a moment, that realization made her slow in her step...but the angry bellow coming from Jasmine reminded her that she couldn't slow down now. She had to book it!

"Sucks to suck, puta!" Talia teased, looking back over her shoulder at Jasmine as the Empress came closing in on her. She winked and stuck out her tongue just to taunt her...but that proved a mistake. Talia was a good few feet ahead of Jasmine, but Jasmine could close that distance quickly - and make a statement when she did so, when she hurled herself through the air at top speeds to come crashing into the would-be thief!

"WHOAH, WHOAH..!! GYAAAAAH!!" The impact threw Talia off her feet - she was kicked into the air and went skidding across the floor as if she'd been hit by a cannonball. The way it felt, she might as well have been, honestly! The crown flew out of her hands and went clattering to the floor, skidding aside. But when Talia came to a stop, her head was spinning, and her knees were folded beneath her as her backside was raised in the air. Really, Talia thought her own ass was worth being proud of...but Jasmine's had thrown her for a loop!

As if assaulting Jasmine, stealing her crown, and running off with it weren't bad enough, even after hearing Jasmine's rage-filled voice bellow, Talia still decided to taunt her further. And doing so only added fuel to the Mighty Monarch's fire! After putting even more pep in her step then before, Jasmine not only caught up to Talia. But she rammed her with the full speed, full power, and full might of her legendary backside! The impact sent Talia flying, before taking a huge crash landing. And it caused her to release her grip on Jasmine's crown, dropping it to the floor!

The first thing Jasmine did was retrieve her crown. The ticked off bombshell grumbled under her breath, picking the crown up to quickly wipe the newly acquired dust off of it. Afterwards, she put the crown back on her head, good as new. But merely getting her crown back was not nearly enough to placate Jasmine. The fact that Talia had used this tour as a farce to try and deceive, attack, and rob Jasmine still left her quite peeved! Jasmine clenched her fists and approached her downed assailant. She let her curvy shadow cast down on Taila, as she loomed over her ominnously!

"After how you acted in my Smother Dungeon, I knew you MIGHT be up to something. But I overestimated your intelligence. Can't you take a fudging hint?! I warned you this was a bad idea!" Jasmine explained. It turned out that she DID know her own strength, and that she was smarter than she let on. After a certain point, every punch, hip bump, and smother story had been meant to discourage Talia from trying anything. "But you tried this stunt anyway! Tsk. Tsk. Tsk." Jasmine crossed her arms in disapproval. "Dommy Mommy Jasmine is very disappointed in you baby... And Mommy must discipline......BY WHUPPING YOUR BUTT!"

Suddenly, Jasmine sent one of her legs back, before booting it forward again. To quite literally kick Talia's butt! A task that would be easy enough to do, considering Talia's behind had been raised in the air! If all went Jasmine's way, she'd kick hard enough to smack Talia across the floor, in the direction she had been running from! And the Wild Royal would pursue her prey, running after her to buttdrop either her back or stomach, depending on which side Talia had landed on. Sitting pretty on her belly or back from there!

[CaptainL]

A moment ago, Talia was elated. The moment her arm slammed upward between Jasmine's legs, stunning her right where she stood as her body locked up with pain, she could feel a rush of adrenaline take hold, knowing that she had gotten one over the Empress. But any joy Talia might have felt at getting away with her tricks would prove short-lived. All it meant was that she now had a very angry Jasmine coming after her - and Jasmine was about to remind her of just how much power she could pack behind her charge when she slammed her behind into the redhead, throwing her to the ground!

Letting out a yelp, Talia went crashing to the ground. She skidded a short distance across the floor, still carrying the momentum of both her attempt to flee and the force of impact Jasmine packed behind her...well, behind. When she finally came to a stop, she groaned under her breath, trying to shake the cobwebs out of her head. But as Jasmine began to berate her, Talia could feel the color drain away from her face. It seemed that she was more aware of Talia's scheme than she had given her credit for - and she had a plan of her own brewing this entire time. A plan to punish Talia for her meddling ways! Not even hearing Jasmine talking about disciplining her - something Talia, ordinarily, would be quite excited to hear - did much to ease her fears. Not when she had already witnessed first-hand what Jasmine was capable of unleashing, and not when she knew all that was only a fraction of what was in store for her now!

The next thing Talia knew, Jasmine swung a kick straight out, slamming it right into her rear! She let out a yelp, her hips bucking up into the air as her legs dropped behind her. She went skidding a short distance away, only for Jasmine to come running swiftly behind - and immediately throw her full weight down on top of the Latina's back, crushing the air out of her lungs! She coughed and wheezed, her arms and legs flailing in the air, before she fell flat onto her face. "A-Ahhhh, er...sorry..?" she muttered, half-breathless - but it surely wasn't going to save her now!

After what Talia pulled, she was really in for it now! After attacking the offender with a butt-kick and a buttdrop, Jasmine sat her weighty booty right on her fellow middleweight's back. She rolled her eyes, upon hearing Taila "apologize" to her. "You're sorry huh? Then why did you phrase it like a question?!" Jasmine snapped, getting up for a moment just to push Talia onto her back. Jasmine would take a seat on her abdomen, pinning Talia's arms under her legs as she did so. This left no way for Talia to protect her face! "You're gonna REALLY be sorry, by the time I'm finally done with you!"

After her threat, Jasmine punched her palm and cracked her knuckles, looking down at Talia with a cold, stern expression. "Let's start off by punishing you for that low-blow! Quite the cheap and dirty shot! If you're gonna slug someone, have the decency not to strike their privates! I for one, prefer to punch my foes...IN THE FACE!" Jasmine raised her fist! "Prepare yourself to have the ever-loving daylights pummeled out of you by my signature: KNUCKLE BUFFET!"

Jasmine would quite literally punch down on Talia, bopping her right in the mouth! She would then raise her other fist, to strike Talia's other cheek. And this painful pattern would continue! Jasmine would violently knock Talia's head from side-to-side, as she repeatedly alternated between which fist she used, and which cheek she punched! The ticked off royal would pound her foe's face many times over, absolutely pummeling her in her well-named Knuckle Buffet!

"POW! BOOM! TAKE THAT! AND THAT! AND ONE OF THOSE! AND ONE OF THESE! EAT MY KNUCKLE SANDWICHES, SUCKA!" Jasmine flared, as she generously gave Talia all she could eat. Talia had seen how hard Jasmine punched, and she had gotten a small taste of it on her arm before. But getting bopped over and over again by her, in retribution, and in the face, would literally hit different! God knew how many times Jasmine socked Talia here, with the impacts echoing out like gunshots. PUNCH PUNCH PUNCH PUNCH PUNCH... But eventually, Jasmine would stop to observe Talia with her fist raised, considering whether or not she should slug her again!
