The Confectioner had finished his experiments, and after a brief stop
over to check on his three other guests, all still helplessly mired in
his paralysis honey coating, he was returning to check on Ampere's
progress. He hoped that she was far enough into the sleepy, orgasm
cycle, that he would be able to use another of his fiendish sweets on
her. Life was certainly good when you loved your work, and the thought
of this proud heroine mindlessly serving him added a new spring to his
step.
Meanwhile, Ampere had only just managed to force her eyes open. Her
head felt clouded and her body seemed weighed down. The stimulation had
begun, almost before she came around this time, and all the heroine
wanted to do, was to lie back and let the next orgasm take her. She was
ready to surrender, whatever her eventual fate would be, perhaps it
would be better than this, then suddenly, she heard the sound of
approaching footsteps. In that instant Ampere acted, forcing herself up
onto legs that felt as though they were made of rubber.
Some heroic instinct surfaced, and she knew that if she was going to be
beaten, then at least she would go down fighting. The futility of her
defiance wasn't lost on the poor heroine, she could barely stand, and
yet here she was, about to fight against someone seemingly immune to
her more powerful attacks. Then, the footsteps halted, and Ampere knew
that the Confectioner had reached the door.
The villain grasped the large metal handle, and tried to turn it. He
was shocked when the centre of the door came away in his hands, leaving
a perfectly circular hole, the edges scorched and melted. He was even
more surprised to see a particularly wobbly looking Ampere, standing
free from her bonds and apparently waiting to do battle with him. The
surprise was only short lived, it was obvious to everyone that the
heroine was in no condition to resist.
Ampere watched as the grinning villain carefully ducked down and
stepped through the opening her eye beam had melted. She was trying to
fight down the urge to just collapse down again, but from the look on
the villain's face, he had already realised what a delicate state she
was in. Suddenly, the heroine's drugged dazed brain realised what the
now open doorway meant, and she felt her spirits lift. Reaching out
with her powers as the villain casually walked towards her, Ampere
began to seek out any unshielded power sources outside the insulated
chamber.
The Confectioner reached into his pocket, and drew out a long green
strand of liquorice. He was taking his time, relishing the look of
horror etched onto his captive's face. Then abruptly, the look
changed, from one of fear and trepidation, to a look of complete
triumph. The villain took a moment to try to work out where this new
conviction had come from, and ever so slowly, he swung around and gazed
in growing realisation at the open chamber door.
Energy suffused the young heroine, the villain's lair was filled with
power sources, and at that moment she was channelling almost all of
them. All fatigue was gone now, replaced by a boundless energy.
Lightning crackled over her naked body, melting the sugar in an
instant, vaporising it and freeing her from the chemical arousal. The
villain's Dream Syrup still coursed through her veins, but without
some form of stimulant she was free from its drowsy grip.
The Confectioner turned back in horror, seeing his victim surrounded by
a bright blue electrical aura. But he knew that he was protected from
her attacks, and was confident that his strength was more than equal to
the challenge of defeating this infuriatingly resilient opponent.
Looping his liquorice around one hand, the villain charged at Ampere,
attempting to grab hold of her.
Ampere fought down the euphoria, having so much power at her disposal
was certainly a "rush". She saw the villain tense, and was in
motion just as he began his charge. Kicking off the ground, she nimbly
leapt over the Confectioner, landing tucked and rolling up onto her
feet, using the momentum to propel her towards the door. The villain,
almost ran headlong into the wall, and by the time he regained his
balance, the heroine had dived into the main chamber.
Roaring in anger the villain charged after her, he shouted for the base
defences to trap Ampere, but there was no response. He smashed his arm
into a large vat, denting the side and causing a dark red mixture to
splash onto the floor. He was going to make this heroine pay, almost
incandescent with rage he chased after her, getting closer and closer
despite her desperate zigzagging. Despite her best efforts, the fleeing
woman couldn't get away, and after several minutes of dodging, the
villain managed to force her into a corner.
There was only one possible escape route, and to his glee, the
Confectioner saw Ampere dive back into the chamber where he had first
placed her. She tried to slam the heavy door shut, but he easily caught
the edge and forced it back open. Ampere backed away from him, and
keeping one eye on the trick woman, the villain sealed the door shut
behind him. Of course, she was still obviously supercharged with the
energy she had acquired, but at least now he had cut her off from any
more power.
Ampere glared at the villain, her eyes blazing. He ignored her, taking
the time to let his eyes roam over her naked form. Then grinning in
anticipation, the villain strode over to where she stood, and reached
out to grasp her. The heroine knew that she couldn't beat him in a
fair fight, but she wasn't intending on playing fair. As the
Confectioner step towards her, she stamped down with her foot, smashing
her heel into his ankle joint. He staggered, and the heroine jumped up,
pushing against his back while bringing her knee up sharply into his
face.
It was a heavy blow, but somehow the villain seemed to shrug off its
effects. Ampere danced away, putting distance between them. Her gloved
hands tried to twist the heavy metal wheel, but she found that she was
unable to grip at all. A snarl of rage behind her made the heroine spin
back to her assailant. The Confectioner flung his liquorice directly at
her, and although she tried to hurl her lightning, the strand struck
her soundly around the chest. It coiled about her, pinning her arms
against her torso, and the villain came rushing towards her.
Ampere's eyes darted around the room, then suddenly she focussed on
one point. Every iota of energy she possessed was forced into that one
beam, her goggles again producing that brilliant beam of light. It
lasted less than a second, this time at a far higher intensity that she
had used before, and then died. Ampere fell back against the door, and
looked up into the eyes of the villain.
The Confectioner had broken his stride, as the beam of energy narrowly
missed him, striking the ground in front of him. Laughing, seeing that
his victim had shot her last bolt, and missed, he stepped towards her,
ready to claim his prize. This time he would never leave her alone, and
her would try a combination of all of his nefarious confectionery.
After all, how could anyone possible resist the simultaneous actions of
his honey, his dream syrup and his gob stoppers?
The, without warning, the ground beneath him fell away. In that instant
he saw Ampere's eyes flash with triumph, and looking down, saw the
hatch beneath him fall away where her eye beam had melted it. The
Confectioner cried out as he plummeted down. There was a loud splash as
he landed in the steaming vat of his Sugar Cane Syrup. Then the screams
began. Ampere struggled to block out the anguished sounds as she worked
to force open the chamber, and by the time she had done so, no sounds
at all rose from the vat.
Once outside, it was a fair simple matter to locate the missing girls.
The police arrived with ambulances to whisk them away for treatment,
and in the confusion, a very relieved and very naked heroine managed to
make her escape. She harboured an understandable reluctance to wear
clothes that she found discarded in a villain's lair. The rescuers
did find the Confectioner's vat of Syrup, but there was no sign of
the villain himself. Ampere made her own vow, that the next time they
met, it would be the last (unfortunately, the Confectioner had made the
same vow).....
