anyway.
"You know, I never have skinned anything before." He smiled at me, "I hope you like it!"
And then the bastard actually started cutting me open!
It hurt like a bitch, as he started to cut from just below my neck to above my crotch, right down the centerline using only the tip of the blade. I looked at Rieselle and she had a hand on Shotoon's chest holding him back. No help there. Azelett was starting to gag, and the two security officers were getting antsy.
I just kept smiling, I wasn't having fun anymore, in fact it hurt like hell, but I wasn't going to give in now. And I sure wasn't going to let anybody see me squirm or beg.
"Oh you like that huh?" said the Captain. He was starting to get a little messy from my blood. And I didn't think he was all there anymore. "Let's see how you like this." He smiled back.
The guards started forward then, but Rieselle stopped them! I gave her a glance, but couldn't figure out what she was up to.
He started peeling back the skin next, starting up by my neck. I can't begin to describe the pain. I could barely keep from crying out, it was so bad. But I didn't want to give the Captain or even Rieselle the pleasure. The Captain was up to his arms in my blood, and I could see it starting to pool on the floor. I was hanging from the bars at this point, the restraints on my wrists being all that was supporting me. Azelett was busy being sick in the corner. He had more than six inches peeled back when my ride showed up.
"What in the name of God are you doing!" shouted Holt. He was Human and one of my 'Handlers'. What he was doing here was a little strange, usually he never got off the shuttle. But I guess they told him I was locked up and he thought he'd check it out himself.
I know one thing, it was the first time in my life I was actually happy to see my ride home show up.
"What?" The Captain seemed surprised. "I'm disciplining this animal!" He said. "I found him guilty of mutiny and this is his sentence!"
He was waving the knife around in front of my face during all this, and was no longer watching me. So when he got really close, I bit him.
"What the?" He looked at me shocked and stunned. I started to growl. He reached up then with his free hand to grab the knife.
So I crushed his wrist, driving my fangs deep into the bones. He dropped the knife and screamed. I wasn't feeling too well myself, as I held on and started trying to free my left arm. They must have grabbed him shortly after that, 'cause he only hit me a few times. I was having trouble seeing, from both lack of blood, and from that which was splattered in my eyes from his struggles.
Somebody started trying to pry my mouth open then, but I wasn't having any of it. I tried jerking my head around but smashed it instead into the bars behind me. They tried again, but I wasn't letting go of that wrist. Somebody plugged up my nose next and I was starting to have trouble breathing. But I wasn't letting go of that wrist dammit! I guess that it was shortly after that I passed out.
I awoke suddenly, I was in pain, and I didn't know where I was. I opened my eyes and tried to roll to my feet.
I got my eyes open, but that was about it. Somebody had tied me to a table. I looked around, Rieselle was standing next to me, I was in the ship's Medical unit.
"Untie me." I stated simply.
"Against doctors orders," She smiled.
"Rieselle," I said quietly trying not to get mad, or whine. "Will you please untie me. I'll forgive you not stopping the Captain. But I can't forgive this."
"Threatening me now?" She was looking a little mad herself.
"Hey what did I do?" I replied while testing my bonds. My left shoulder hurt bad. "I was the one being turned into a coat!"
"I warned you not to mess with the Captain, didn't I?"
"So that was reason enough to stop anyone from interfering with his skinning me alive? That's a little petty for you isn't it?" I was getting mad now and my ears folded back angrily as I tried my legs.
"Stop
