Part 2: How to torment an Amazon

It did not take long for Coral and Star to reach their base of operations: a long abandoned temple. As they got there Wonder Woman, their captive, was placed in the temple's dungeons.

Wonder Woman, who was rendered unconscious from the battle, started to wake up afyer a couple of hours.

Wonder Woman: Ugh…Where am …

As the Amazon fully gained consciousness, she felt that she was being held in place. She had soon realized that a giant snake was holding her captive. It had wrapped itself around her arms, waist and legs, preventing the Amazon from escaping. What made the situation worse was that the snake started to squeeze every time Wonder Woman tried to move. The Amazon could only moan in pain as she tried to break free, only to be constricted even more.

Coral: I would not try that if I were you. You cannot escape on your own.

Wonder Woman looked to see that Coral and Star were watching her from the shadows. As the villainesses approached Wonder Woman, the Amazon tried once again to break free, only for the snake to squeeze her more.

Star: Feisty! I like that!

Star approached Wonder Woman and wrapped her arms around the Amazon's waist. The villainess started to squeeze Wonder Woman, making the Amazon moan in pain. Coral soon motioned the snake holding the Amazon to squeeze harder.

Coral: Don't worry Amazon. There is much more pain to come.

Before the villainesses could continue tormenting their prisoner, another python slithered down into the dungeon and made its way to Coral. This python was patrolling the jungle around the temple and slithered to its master to make a report. In its own language the python spoke to Coral about some important news. Star only watched what was happening.

Star: What's your pet saying?

Coral: It appears we have two lovely ladies making their way to this temple, Variety and CopyCat.

Star: How did they follow us?

Coral: Those pesky heroines always know where to find me.

Coral talked to the python in the snake language. The python slithered towards Wonder Woman and proceeded to wrap itself around the Amazon. Coral turned to talk to Star and they knew what was coming; they would deal with the intruders. They saw Wonder Woman, who was still trying to escape, being squeezed by the second python.

Coral: Will you just relax? You are acting like my pets will devour you. There is more torment to come.

Star: We will have to let our fun with you wait just a little while longer.

The two villainesses left the Amazon in her predicament, while she moaned in pain as the pythons continued to squeeze her.

Variety and CopyCat had walked through the jungle, tracking the villainesses and Wonder Woman. They had finally reached a temple and the two prepared themselves for any surprises; Variety loaded her pistols and CopyCat using her dark fire abilities to form a rapier.

Variety: Are you ready?

CopyCat: I'm ready for any perils.

The heroines soon entered the temple, both having their backs against each since there was little light inside. For several minutes, the two walked through the halls of the temple, finding nothing in the process. They soon reached what appeared to be the temple's great hall, but the heroines could not find Wonder Woman or the villainesses.

CopyCat: I see nothing V. Is it possible that your tracking device is malfunctioning again?

Variety: No, I'm sure that it's working fine.

CopyCat: Well, it did cease to function when we were hunting that evil squid.

Variety: Okay to be fair, that was only because my gadget was not water-proof at the time.

They soon heard laughter and immediately knew that they were being watched. They checked their surroundings, but saw no one. A blast of water zoomed towards CopyCat, who saw it coming. She barely managed to grab Variety and duck before the water blast zoomed by them. As the two got up Variety saw the silhouette of a naga slithering and shot at it. Unfortunately, her shots missed and the naga hid back into the shadows. Variety and CopyCat regained their original stance, but they both knew this would not make a difference.

CopyCat: *Whisper* In such an environment where the enemy have the advantage, the two of us don't stand a chance.

Variety thought about this fact and quickly came up with an idea.

Variety: *Whisper* My tracking device still has a lock on Wonder Woman, if I can find her, then we may just have a chance.

CopyCat: *Whisper* You go, I will hold them here.

Wasting no time, CopyCat created a huge aura of dark flames and with a wave of her hands, caused that aura to split and scattered the dark flames throughout the hall. This caused the villainesses to search for cover and gave Variety the opportunity that she needed and went to continue the search for the Wonder Woman.

CopyCat prepared herself for combat as she saw her opponents emerging from the shadows. Coral was in her naga form while Star had her shield in hand.

CopyCat: I must say, Coral and Star working together? That's new.

Coral: Then you'd better hope that you can handle us alone.

Star: Because if you don't, then we will have another toy to have fun with.

The villainesses charged at CopyCat, who went on the defensive. She knew that she would only be able to hold off the enemy for a short time.

CopyCat: I sure hope that Variety will find Diana in time.

Variety, while using her tracking device, had wandered through the temple until she had made it to what she thought was the dungeons. With her pistols in hand, Variety cautiously walked through the dungeons. In a short matter of time she found an unconscious Wonder Woman being bound by a python. Variety could immediately tell that Wonder Woman had been struggling and could not get free.

Variety: Hang on Diana! I'll get you out!

Variety ran towards Wonder Woman, unaware that she was being watch by a creature in the shadows. Wonder Woman heard Variety as she slowly regained consciousness. She tried to warn Variety.

Wonder Woman: Behind…you!

Variety was able to hear that, but turned too late. The second python that was holding the Amazon was watching Variety and waited for the right moment to strike. The ambush caused Variety to lose her guns, but that was the least of her concerns. The python quickly wrapped several coils around Variety up to her breasts. Variety's arms were free and she tried to grab the python's head, but it was out of her reach. The python squeezed Variety, making the heroine yell in pain.

Variety: Damnit! I don't have time to play with you!

Variety and the python continued their fight and within a couple of minutes the heroine was able to grab the python's head and put it into a head-lock. However the python, which was far from beaten, tightened its grip on Variety, forcing the heroine to release it. As Variety let the python go, the python took advantage of this and used the tip of its tail to seize the heroine's arms. Binding Variety's arms together, the python now had the upper over the heroine.

Variety: Damn! This will be more difficult than I thought.

Variety struggled to break free, but the python had a good hold of her. The heroine remembered about CopyCat and that she would not last long holding off Coral and Star. Unless Variety was able figure something out soon, then no one would escape the temple.
