Mutant Mafia – A Good Time #6 – A Way Out (Patreon)

Story by Leena (@MyLifeIsARPG)

Emma was a nervous wreck. She closely held a manila folder to her chest. Her heels softly clicked as she walked down the alleyway. This was a crazy plan. This was a stupid plan. But it had to work. It was the only shot she had. She spent the last month working on this. It’s now or never.

She walked up to the familiar bouncer. “Let me see your card…” the behemoth asked.

“Don’t have one…” Emma said, putting on as much of a tough guy act as she was able to.

“No card, no entry…” the bouncer said, putting a set of massive hands at her hips.

“I have…” she swallowed hard. Her mouth was dry. She was afraid for her life… but she had to go forward. “I have something more important than a card… something I need to show Ms. Uh…” she stumbled over her words… “Ms. Valentina Bellabra…”

The bouncer leaned down and put her face close to Emma’s with a sneer. “We’ve been getting more punks like you coming in her and thinking they own the place recently. What makes you think you have the right to speak with lips?”

“I… want to make a deal…” Emma said, practically trembling. “I have something to sell her… a uh… genetic secret to making really potent mutagen.”

The bouncer sneered again before backing up and taking a phone out of her pocket. She walked out of earshot and paced in frustration before coming back and angrily addressing Emma once more. “You have ten minutes…” she said before unlocking the door, muttering “they don’t pay me enough for this… I never shoulda stopped studying interpretive dance.”

Emma was once again led down the dark corridors until a large heavy door was unlocked, giving way to an office, an office at which the long legged Valentina Bellabra sat.

“My my,” the imposing mutant said. “It’s been very busy around here it seems. I hear you’ve come to sell me something? Dear… I can’t imagine a small girl like you has something to offer the family.”

“D-don’t be so hasty…” Emma said, still trying to sum up courage. “I… I’ve spent the last month coming up with the formula for a very, very potent mutagen. I just… I think you’d be interested.” She shakily extended the folder to the tall mutant in front of her who snatched it up with a “hmmpf”

A second later, she started laughing. “Oh honey… honey honey. I’m no biologist but this looks an awful lot like the mutagen we already sell.” All of her mouths laughed jovially, as if it was the most absurd thing she had seen in a while.

“I know…” Emma said.

“You know? Well then, why try to sell me my own mutagen?” Valentina said with a bemused grin.

“You’re right. I can just get this same mutagen elsewhere…” Emma said. The hook was planted.

“Elsewhere? Don’t you know my dear child? Valentina Bellabra’s secret sauce is a mutagen exclusive to… exclusive… exclusive to…” Valentina stopped laughing. She went a little pale.

“Exclusive to the family right?” Emma said a bit of confidence filling her frail figure. “I know you aren’t a biologist… but I am… well… a biology student at least. And I’ve spent the last month doing nothing but trying to crack your code. So now your formula is a secret known just to your family… and me…”

“You have guts, child…” Valentina said. “But that’s hardly an issue…” she said opening up her desk drawer and taking out a small handgun. “You see, all I have to do is ensure you don’t walk out that door and our secret is safe.”

“W-wait…” Emma said, trembling at the mere sight of a gun. “Th-that’s exactly the opposite of what you want to do.”

“Oh?” said Valentina. “And why’s that…”

“B-because I…I’ve already set those files to be sent out to anyone who might be interested…” she said backing up and swallowing hard, willing herself to continue talking, “the cops, the government, rival crime families, imagine what the Yakuza could do with this formula.”

“You little brat!” Valentina said “You’ll ruin me! Mama will…”

“Mama doesn’t have to know…” Emma said, being bold enough to interrupt the mutagen kingpin in front of her. “It hasn’t gone out yet. It’s just data on a server and if I go back home, I can stop it. But its password protected and only I know the password. It’s set to be sent out at midnight tonight, so unless you can scour the world and find the one server it’s hidden on before tonight, you need me…”

Valentina backed up, a drop of sweat rolling down her brow. She squeezed her cigarette holder tight in her hand mouth until it snapped… and then she cracked a small smile. “You’re smart kid…” she said, her voice losing its air of sophistication, “real smart… you gotta lot of nerve pulling a stunt like this.” She put the gun away in the drawer again. “But ya got me. So it’s time to negotiate. Whatcha want? How many zeroes do I gotta set you up with?”

“I don’t want money?” Emma said, taking a timid step forward with her middle leg.

“You want our supply then? Or was this some sort of fucked up way to audition for the family?”

“No, I don’t want anything to do with you…” Emma said.

“Then what, in the hell, is this all about!” Valentina said, her patience being tested.

“I want Mary…”

“What?” Valentina said, a shocked look as if she was suddenly smacked moving across her face.

“I want Mary back. You know where she is. I know you do. I just want her back.”

Valentina started laughing again “You did all this… this whole production… all for one junkie?”

Emma shouted “She’s not just a junkie!” she had had enough of people dehumanizing Mary. “She’s my friend!”

Valentina sighed, “yes, yes, whatever. This whole thing could have went down a lot easier if that’s all you wanted.” Valentina took out a phone and pressed a few buttons. “Bring in our guest from 4B. Make sure she’s comfortable.”

Within a few moments the large bouncer came back in carrying a large jar of thick purple liquid. It thrashed around inside, and in moments, Emma swore she could see Mary’s face in the mess.

“Is that… her?” Emma said.

“Yes, yes. You should know with all the work you put in. Take too much and your genetics breaks down. Sad really… Maybe if we had a good mind like you on our side we could get rid of that side effect?”

“Not interested. Besides, you wouldn’t want to anyway…”

“Yes yes, I suppose you are right. Our little friends who push themselves a bit too far end up being our main method of mutagen production after all… actually… about that. See, I can’t just give her to you as she is. I’d be giving you a way to produce as much mutagen as you’d like and that’d be a pretty big hole in our business. She’s going to need a more stable both if she’s going to walk out of her.”

“So, get her one. You have a cure right?” Emma said, somewhat confused, somewhat scared.

“Oh we have one right here.”

Valentina snapped her fingers and the bouncer threw the jar at the ground near Emma’s feet. The purple sludge that was Mary splattered all over her, and within seconds started crawling up her legs. She could feel it, seeping into her pores. “W-what did you do?”

“Simple really. Her genetics were fried a long time ago. So if you want your little friend to be stable, she will have to borrow yours.

Emma fell to her feet as she felt the goo that was Mary push inside her more. It crawled up all three legs. It entered her body, through her vagina and ass, moving up her torso, through her mouth, through her ears. It encased her. She moaned deeply as she felt it moving inside her and gasped as she watched her skin turn to a dark purple, her fingers and toenails growing long and sharp, sharp enough to shred through her heels. “W-what’s happening to me?”

“Oh I’m afraid that’s up to your little friend Molly…” Valentina said.

Emma felt her body violently rearrange. Her teeth sharpened. Her ears pulled back into points. She felt a third eye riiiip open from her forehead. Her shoulders cracked, broadening as a bulge grew on the side of her neck. She felt it pulse growing larger. “H-her name… is M-Mary” she tried to protest.

“Yes, yes, whatever,” Valentina said. “Please finish up your little freak show so our business can be done.”

Emma started screaming. It felt like her body was ripping itself apart. She felt a second pair of arms BURST from her side. She felt two, long, thick, tentacle like tails PUSH out of her backside. Finally, she felt a second head grow in on her shoulders, and with a rush of memories, she knew. It was Mary’s head… screaming alongside her.

Valentina clapped “good show good show. I always like a good transformation. Now, our business is done. Get them out of my sight before I change my mind.”

Emma’s clothes were shredded but she didn’t care. Her head was spinning. The bouncer picked her up and dragged her out of the building. She kept fading in and out as she felt them being shoved into the back of a car.

It was several minutes later when she heard Mary’s voice “Emma… is… is that you?”

Emma’s head looked over to the other head on her shoulders and tears welled up in her eyes “Y-yes… it’s me…”

“Am… am I out?” Mary said, almost in disbelief.

“Yes… yes… your finally…”

“OUT!” the driver said, opening up the door and throwing the newly merged pair onto the cool grass in front of Emma’s house. “And don’t you dare think of coming back again.”

The fused couple wrapped their arms around themselves and shared a deep and loving cry as the car peeled off and disappeared into the distance.
