Pleasure Spiked with Pain:

Simone’s Notes:

In BDSM, a scene is a complete encounter. It may or may not involve sexual activity. It may help to think of a scene as the BDSM equivalent of what might be considered a romantic interlude or erotic encounter. While what constitutes such an encounter will vary depending on the people, kink and lifestyle involved, almost everyone in the community uses the term. A scene can take place in private between two people, or in a club where it can be viewed by an audience. When a scene takes place in public it may be because the participants enjoy the thrill of being watched by others, or because of the equipment available, or because having third parties present adds safety for play partners who have only recently met. There is an etiquette in most clubs which regulates how the onlookers may interact with the people in the scene. The term also has another use among people into BDSM. Many refer to the general BDSM community as "The Scene."

The Momo case was starting to heat up with interesting facts. The victim wasn’t as innocent as she seemed. The military were shocked at what all they found. Momo was part of a BDSM club on the Red Light District. A vampire BDSM club named Lady Bitch to be exact. The name itself was dirty. This place had been around for six years now. Lady Bitch seemed to have flourished from there. It was difficult to find out what would happen from there. No one knew where to take the next direction. Most of the men were turned on by the victim’s kinky activities. Mustang tried his best to keep his professionalism.

“Okay then,” he said aloud. “Who wants to investigate Lady Bitch?” Silence was all around in the room. He looked at Price, Hughes, Reed, and Floyd. They were all blushing.

“Come on!” Roy said. “We can all be professional about this!” There was still some silence. Mustang sighed aloud. They were all being childish now.

“Come on!” he said. “Don’t make me draft someone!” There was still silence in the room. *Sweat drop Roy’s head* Hughes finally raised his hand. Mustang relaxed some.

“Good, colonel!” he said. “Anyone else?” There was more silence. Mustang sighed.

“Fine!” he said. “The rest of you can go back to the crime scene and look for more evidence.” The other men relaxed. Mustang cleared his throat.

“Right!” he called. “Hughes, let’s go!” The other man rose up pale. He clearly didn’t want to do this. But, it was time to play beat the clock for this “case.” Morale check would have to come later. The two men headed right out the door. The other three watched on in silence.

“Those are some brave men!” Reed said.

“Yep!” Price agreed. Floyd clapped his hands together tightly.

“Okay then,” he said. “Let’s get to the crime scene!”

“Yeah,” the other two men agreed. Then, they all rose to their feet and went out the door. The hunt for Momo’s killer was on for real now.

Jim and Don were all examining pictures of the body. Don turned to Jim.

“Why strangle the woman after you kill her?” he asked.

“You’ve got me on that one,” his pal said. “It doesn’t make sense. She had no blood in her body.” Both shuttered at that conclusion. These incubi and succubi were getting more and more aggressive over time. More and more bloodless bodies were popping up all over the city. The military sometimes feared that they were next. Then, another thought hit Jim in the head.

“Hey Don,” he said. His pal looked right over at him.

“Hm?” the lt. asked him.

“You know how these incubi and succubi seduce their prey, right?” Jim asked.

“Yes,” his friend said.

“What if… they possess our girls and try to attack us through them?” Wright forced himself to ask. Don looked at him in great worry. Both were silent in great fear at that one. They just turned back to the pictures and examined them in silence. This was all just too disturbing.

Meanwhile, Havoc and Ross were talking to Alex again. They came over to his school. The two soldiers had to wait until classes got out to talk to the lamb. So, Havoc and Ross came over to the principal’s office. Jean came up to the desk. He rang the bell at the front desk.

“Coming!” a voice called from the back. Havoc and Ross waited for a little bit. A tiny woman rushed over to the desk. Her blonde her was naturally curled tightly. Her maroon and silver dress suit was neatly pressed. Shock met her face when she saw the two lts. The woman really wasn’t expecting the military to come to school at a morning like this.

“Uh…” she stammered out. “Can I… help… you?”

“Yes ma’am,” Havoc said. “We would like to talk to Alex Shepherd.” The woman looked at him with no emotion on her face.

“Why would you need to talk to one of our students?” she asked.

“We are investigating a murder that took place last night,” Maria spoke up. “Alex is the only eye witness that we have.” The woman took a moment to let all sink in for a moment.

“You mean the woman that was dropped on another one of our students?” she asked.

“Yes,” Havoc said. The secretary kept her emotionless face.

“I can call him up if you want,” she said.

“Okay,” Havoc said. Then, the woman pressed the intercom button.

“Mrs. Daily,” she called.

“Yes,” the teacher answered back on the speaker.

“Please send Alex Shepherd up to the office,” the woman said.

“Okay,” the English teacher said. Then, the secretary turned off the intercom. She turned to the lts.

“He’ll be up here in a minute,” she said.

“Good,” Havoc said.

“Care to take a seat?” the secretary asked.

“Sure,” Ross said. Then, she sat down on the couch.

“I’m fine,” Havoc said shaking his head.

“Okay,” the woman said. They all waited for a couple of minutes. Soon, the office door opened wide. All three looked up to see Alex staring back at them. His face went pale with terror. He feared this would happen. He dreaded it the whole walk up here. The lamb knew that the military would track him all the way down here. Now, it was here. What could he do now? The secretary turned to him smiling.

“Alex,” she said. “These lts. want to talk to you about the murder case last night.” The lamb was really worried now. She turned to Havoc.

“He’s still a little shaken up from the events of Rebecca’s death,” she whispered. Havoc just nodded. “I can understand that,” he thought.

“I’ll leave you alone if you like,” the secretary said.

“Yes please,” Havoc said. Alex was really scared now. He quickly shook his head. Ross noticed instantly. She quickly stood up.

“I don’t think so ma’am!” she spoke up. Havoc and the secretary turned to her looking confused. Alex began to relax some.

“Why is that?” Havoc asked.

“I think due to the trauma last night,” Maria theorized. “I think it is best if we all stayed here with him.” Alex held his breath in hope. The secretary thought about that for a moment. “Please stay! Please stay!” Alex thought over and over again. “Don’t leave me!” The secretary finally smiled.

“Okay then,” she said. “I’ll stay near and behind the desk with the wall up.” Alex breathed out in relief. Havoc nodded at that decision.

“Alright,” he said. “Fair enough.” The secretary sat behind her desk and closed the screen. Alex relaxed some. The lamb was a little safe now. Havoc turned to him.

“Okay Alex,” he said. “We need to know what all you saw last night. This is very important to us for Momo’s sake.” The lamb slowly looked at the floor. He was in a trap once again. The lamb still couldn’t tell them the truth of who did because they threatened him to keep quiet. In short, Alex was in fear for his own life. But then, something caught the lt’s attention. Alex usually wore a cute silver bracelet on his left wrist. It was a gift from his late girlfriend, Rebecca. She had one just like his. Their bracelets were a symbol of their love for each other. Today, his bracelet was gone. Havoc found this as very odd.

“Alex,” he spoke up. “What happened to your bracelet?” The lamb jerked his head up at that question.

“Hm?” Alex asked bewildered. Okay, he wasn’t expecting that one. Maria looked and saw as well.

“Hey, you’re right!” she called. “It’s gone. What happened to it?” Alex looked away again.

“I threw it away,” he said. Both lts looked at him confused by that answer.

“But why?” Havoc asked. “Your girlfriend gave that to you because she loved you.”

“I loved her too and I still do,” Alex protested. “That bracelet reminded me too much about her so I took it off and threw it away!” Both Havoc and Ross felt very sorry for him.

“Need a moment?” Havoc asked. The lamb nodded at him.

“Okay,” the lt. said. They let him take a breather for a while.

Meanwhile, Hughes and Mustang had a problem of their own. They had found the club, Lady Bitch. The fun begins from there. The boys took the “lovely” trip down to the Red Light District. Smut and sleaze was everywhere. Mustang felt like he needed to take a bath already. How can so much filth be in one place like this? Something told him that this would be getting bigger soon. Hughes stayed with his buddy the whole time. He too was in disgust at this place.

“Why would anyone want to come do here?” Maes whispered to his pal.

“The sex,” Roy said back. The brigadier general shuttered again. It was so gross to think about it.

“Don’t they care about diseases and things like that?” he asked. Roy shook his head.

“They want it that bad,” he said. Hughes shuttered again. It all got worse by the minute. Well, almost… The boys were still walking when a hooker came over to them. She looked about forty years old. Her face was covered in wrinkles. The make-up on her face wasn’t helping her look any better at all. It just made the woman look like a drunk clown. Her long orange-red hair was flying wildly in the wind. The woman needed to eat badly. Her heavy boobs were bouncing around like crazy. The hooker’s red leather corset was pushing them upwards. The only thing decent on her was the short black leather skirt. She was leaning in so close that the men could almost choke on the vomit and booze on her sickly thin body.

“Hey boys!” she said in a flirty tone. “How would you like a night with mummy here?” The boys looked at her in disgust. They hurried away from her as fast as they could. The hooker took that as flirtation.

“Hey wait!” she called. “Come back and play with mummy!” She chased after them in a heartbeat. The hunt went on for a few minutes until the hooker just gave up and found someone else to harass. Hughes and Mustang breathed out in relief.

“She was just scary!” Hughes whispered.

“I know,” Mustang replied. But, there search turned out to be a huge success. Hughes paused and looked up. Something had caught his eye. He tapped Roy on the shoulder. His pal looked up at him.

“What is it?” he asked. Maes pointed forward. Mustang turned and saw… Lady Bitch herself. A little relived smile came across Roy’s face.

“Well I’ll be damned!” he said. The hooker chasing them ended up as a good thing after all. Things just became easier now. Mustang looked at Hughes out of the corner of his eye.

“Well,” he said. “Let’s go in.” The brigadier general took in a deep breath as he gathered up his strength. This wasn’t going to be easy, but anything to stop these monsters from claiming more innocent lives.

“Okay!” Maes said. Then, the men went into the club.

Back in the apartments, Syd and Ella were doing some investigating of their own. You see, they knew the truth already. Momo wasn’t the victim at all. This was all just a huge distraction from their plans. Alex was going to need all of the protection he could get this time.

“I want to leave Yasmine out of this one,” Ella spoke up. Syd looked up at her as if she was crazy.

“Why?!?” he asked.

“She’s pregnant, remember?” Ella reminded him. “We don’t want to do any damage to the baby until we see what happens.”

“Ah,” said Syd. Then, they went back to work. But, the work was going to get interrupted. You see, last night Manami blew her petals out onto the city. They broke into the dust and everybody breathed them in. Now, everyone was poisoned with desire. That’s right! Everyone was poisoned. Some weren’t showing the affects until later. Syd was showing the affects right now! He crept up behind Ella and grabbed her tightly. The deity looked behind out of the corner of her eye. Syd was panting down her neck. She could sense that something was wrong right off the bat.

“Syd,” she said. “What are you doing?”

“Honey doll!” her bloke said. Ella raised her eyebrow at that one.

“Honey doll?” she asked him. “You never really call me that.” Syd then tried to push her to the floor. Red flags went up everywhere.

“Syd!!!” Ella yelled out as she tried to push him off. “What has gotten into you?!?” But then, Ella found her own answer right away. She looked into Syd’s eyes and found them to be a tint red color. Her eyes grew big in shock. “He’s possessed by his own lust!” she thought. Her bloke was still coming at her with everything that he had. Ella had to do something fast or he would be raping her in a few minutes.

The bird kicked him away as fast as she could. Syd fell back with a thud. Ella struggled to get up and find the tools for an exorcism. Syd was still chasing with his own sick desires. His bird found the ink and pen. This method was a long shot, but she didn’t really have much of a choice at the moment. Syd was coming at her fast. When he got close enough, Ella grabbed him quickly and began drawing transmutation circles all over his body. Due to Syd constantly moving and trying to push her to the ground to try and rape her, Ella couldn’t really draw them straight. When she was finished, the deity threw down the pen, placed her hands on his chest, and began chanting loudly. A great red light formed and went straight into Syd. An inner explosion took place. Her bloke finally let go of her and collapsed at her face. Ella looked down at him panting.

“Damn!” she said to him. “I never expected you to fall so easily! That must mean it’s worse than we thought. We need to fix this before the wound is really infected.” But first, she had to tend to the big oaf at her feet. So, Ella picked him up and dragged Syd all the way to bed.
