------------
It was a trap, Cam set her up. Kioshi should've seen it coming during their underwater sparring match. He tried to pin Kioshi down as they came in, only for Kioshi to thrust Cam at the nearest frogman before vanishing through the door.
The ship may be a bit of a labyrinth, but Kioshi has used it multiple times to escape criminals and rogue divers alike.
Hiding it out is a bad move, this group looks well-trained for underwater searching and may use their numbers to their advantage. One of the goons might be covering an exit or two, ready to fight Kioshi on a moment's notice.
Kioshi had more than enough training, strength, and stamina to take on any and all of the incoming frogmen.
A peep of light comes from a torn side of the hull. Kioshi takes a minute to stick to a wall in the dark, pausing to check and see if the coast is clear, readying to fight if a pair is hiding behind it.
Out of nowhere, she gets tackled to one of the walls, a frogman blindsides her from the darkness!
Kioshi instinctively goes for her knife, but the diver quickly deflects her arm and squeezes one of her hoses from under it. Kioshi grabs their hose with the other arm and tugs it tightly, and she thrusts a knee into their torso for good measure, making them let go.
Unable to risk getting boxed in, Kioshi hastily swims away, only for that diver to grab her legs from behind. She tugs them and performs a series of hind kicks at their torso again, stunning the diver and letting her loose.
Another frogman tackles Kioshi from the side, but she responds by recklessly pushing them into the other diver, sandwiching them to the nearest wall.
The second diver pathetically holds on for dear life, still scuffling with their target until she slams them into the wall a second time. They let go as if Kioshi was too much for them.
Kioshi immediately swims for the exit. With no enemy divers in sight to flank her, she silently dives to the ocean floor, skimming along the rocks and away from the ship to avoid being seen...
Just as Kioshi thought the coast was clear, her chest started to hurt. She immediately looks at her oxygen gauge. The reading was inconclusive. Either there is something wrong with the tank, or the gauge is off! There's no way her oxygen was this low already!
No time for troubleshooting. Kioshi hurriedly breaks for the surface at all costs.
Two more divers swim straight for Kioshi from below as she rises from the cliffs. She looks down to see them, and kicks into high gear in a desperate attempt to outswim them.
The lack of air saps her stamina away, slowing her down and forcing her to fight only a mere 20 meters from the surface.
Her legs thrusts at one with success, but the other grabs her other leg and drags her down. Kioshi desperately reaches for their mask, but they grab her arm and restrain it tightly on their own. The other grabs her other arm before she could use it, both now holding her in a spread eagle formation.
Normally, a strong fighting type Riolu like Kioshi would flex their arms to easily get out of a pinch, similar to a superhero, but she couldn't gather enough oxygen to refuel what strength she had left.
Kioshi isn't going anywhere. The chase is over.
One of the divers monotonly broadcasts their capture to the leader while they hold Kioshi tightly in their arms, "Delta 3 to Mistress, we got her."
...
"Yes, Mistress."
The frogmen take Kioshi back to the ship. Poor Kioshi gasped and stammered, unable to breathe properly on the way back...
...
Upon reentering the room, a feminine figure notices the trio entering the room. They tamper with Kioshi's oxygen tank, clearing the airways and letting her breathe easily again - Kioshi takes a deep breath to regain her senses, only to see the mysterious figure in a black, near-featureless wetsuit.
The woman gives her prisoner a warm welcome, delighted to finally meet her in person. "My, my, Kioshi Koyokami. That was an impressive fight you put up. You are indeed as strong as they say~"
Kioshi didn't initially recognize who this person was, but she suspected something was up... Several cases of missing people flash before her eyes, several of them pointing to a mysterious woman in a black wetsuit - her real name is unknown, but they all point to a common alias, "Mistress".
She silently glared at the woman in black, not delighted in the slightest.
The woman named "Mistress" playfully tilts her head, looking at her captive's serious, razor-sharp eyes. "Hmm, that look in your eyes... I am sure you know who I am?", the woman coyly asked, also well aware of the riolu's hard-earned background.
Kioshi coldly stated, "I am aware of who you are, and I know you have Cam under your control."
"Hm~ Someone has been studying~" the woman enthusiastically replied, "I assume you are wondering about your friend here? Don't worry, he is fine with us~" she waves her hand to one of the divers spectating the event, a blue mewtwo in a black wetsuit decorated in blue.
"Cam has been a good helper for my legion", she complimented, "He helped us find interesting locations, treasures, he helped build a base, and even negotiate with people that are less than willing to join~"
The mewtwo mindlessly stares back with a glazed, docile look in his eyes; a rainbow-colored gas swirls inside his scuba mask, the same gas that all the other divers are currently breathing, including the two divers holding Kioshi captive. All of them under their Mistress' control.
Kioshi was disgusted by the mere sight of what's become of him. Poor Cam looks like a puppet dangling under a set of strings.
The woman then takes note of her captive's background, "Hmm... Knowing you, Kioshi, your abilities, your fighting prowess, your cold and calculative demeanor, your... Body... You will be a perfect high-ranking commander under my legion."
The woman finishes with an offer, "Wouldn't you like to be like him? A well-trained scuba diver under the control of your new Mistress?"
"I am not joining you." Kioshi coldly replied.
The woman is unsurprised by the response, "Oh, I figured you aren't willing to join me," and smugly retorts with sinister intention, "...But perhaps after spending some time with me, I might help you reconsider~"
With a wave of her hand, the masked woman signals a spectating diver to swim up behind Kioshi. The darkness of the ship made it difficult to tell who it was, but she had a hunch on who it could be...
"Cam, cut off her oxygen." Mistress commanded.
Cam replies in a cold, evil tone, "Yes, Mistress..."
(Damn...) Kioshi thought. She's in for it now...
~~~~~~~~~~~~
Cam was commanded to turn off Kioshi's oxygen supply, then turn it back on, and repeat the cycle several times. Every rinse and repeat forces Kioshi to hold her breath every time he tampers with it. It is a sick, twisted move by this "Mistress", yet Kioshi still holds a formidable resistance against her dirty tricks.
Once again, Mistress gives her beloved minion the command, "Cam, give her oxygen back."
Cam, Kioshi's friend and hypnotically devoted minion to his Mistress, replies in a mindless, subordinate tone. "Yes, Mistress."
He turns a knob on Kioshi's oxygen tank, reactivating it to ensure his friend survives.
Kioshi inhales deeply for air as it rushes back in, shaking and quivering from the unending strain, almost shouting from exhaustion.
Escaping was still an option, but the odds of success are not in Kioshi's favor. These frogmen are specially trained to sabotage diving equipment. Fighting them meant risking damage to her equipment and drowning mid-fight - much worse than where she is now.
Kioshi didn't want to take the risk, preferring to surrender and endure the torture.
But in spite of losing, she prefers to endure this strange method of torture anyways.
Perhaps to push herself? Just for the thrill of it? Who knows, really?
Mistress takes a good look into Kioshi's scuba mask, seeing her eyes in a daze, worn out, and twitching underneath the lens.
Kioshi was uncertain how much more she could take...
"My, my, Kioshi, I will admit, You have an admirable tenacity~", Mistress compliments her, "It is easy to forget how important breathing is to us. All we need is our precious air to be taken away and we are left struggling to survive the next few minutes. Many of my frogmen have screamed and begged for me to stop, I am amazed you've resisted the urge to do the same."
Mistress waves her hand to que another diver, "But alas, all good struggles have to end..."
Behind Kioshi's back, a series of strange sounds can be heard. Velcro tearing up, some metal clanking, and a couple hisses of a hose at the end.
Someone tampered with her oxygen tanks. Kioshi knew what it meant...
"Awww, that poor look in your eyes; the fear, the distress, the anguish..." Mistress teased, almost feeling sorry for her, "You looked so stone cold and focused when we first met. Where did it all go~?"
Kioshi, still regaining her pace, glares back at Mistress in disgust. Mistress gives off a villainous chuckle from the delicious sight.
"Cam, cut off her oxygen, then activate her second tank."
"Yes, Mistress." Cam gladly relayed.
The mewtwo slowly turns off Kioshi's oxygen tank with eager. Even if Cam has the ability to read minds, he would rather not bother peeking inside Kioshi's, preferring to imagine the fear instilling inside her as he enjoys each and every single twist of the knob.
Kioshi takes a deep, deep breath, holding what could be her final breath of fresh air. The hissing sound flowing into Kioshi's scuba mask slowly fades away, leaving her virtually breathless - It is a fruitless move, but what else could she really do at this point?
Once that was done, Cam slowly twisted the adjacent valve open, letting in a sight that was familiar to him upon his friend: A puff of colorful, enticing haze slowly seeped into Kioshi's mask...
Kioshi knew what it was, and she kept her mouth tightly shut to avoid breathing it in, horrified at the sight. This breath would be her last, the next will not be her own...
...
The only thing Kioshi wanted now is to last as long as she could...
...
~~~~~~~~~~~~
Kioshi held her breath as long as she could. The horror in her eyes grew as the strange gas slowly spread around Kioshi's face. Its presence felt thick, and the potent scent tickled her muzzle. She starts to shake from what little oxygen she has left. It's only a matter of time until Kioshi has to breathe it...
Mistress enjoys the look of panic in Kioshi's eyes as she loses control, contrasting the language of her body giving in to its nature. What a joyous sight to behold~!
But of course, such displays can be unhealthy for the receiving end, so Mistress gives a command to her new puppet to keep her safe...
"There is no need to panic, Kioshi. Just calm down, and take deep, deep breaths..."
After holding her breath for too long, Kioshi's body finally listens to its demands, quivering a little as she takes deep, deep breaths...
Her mind, overwhelmed by the hypnotic gas, slows down and relaxes, falling into a fuzzy state. Her eyes change from alert, helpless, and panicking, to a calm, submissive look. A layer of glaze slowly forms over the eyes, still shivering from the aftermath.
"Delta 3 and Delta 4, let go of Kioshi." Mistress ordered her henchmen.
"Yes, Mistress." The two divers obeyed their Mistress, letting her go.
Kioshi is finally given the opportunity to escape. She takes a quick breath, prepped to fight back.
...
But instead of slithering out the door or readying a fighting stance, Kioshi's body shivers in place, her arms and legs droop and dangle. It's as if her body is refusing to fight. Kioshi isn't swimming anywhere either, but idling in front of a mysterious woman in a beavertail wetsuit, breathing in the hypnotic gas, letting it corrupt her system.
...
It was already too late, the hypnotic gas has taken Kioshi. Her body wasn't listening to her anymore, stringing her like a marionette giving a futile struggle against their puppeteer's strings.
The woman in the beavertail wetsuit took a good look into the riolu's eyes underneath her scuba mask, no longer razor-sharp, focused, or even grumpy, but instead are calm, glazed, and submissive...
"Can you hear me, Kioshi?" Mistress playfully spoke into Kioshi's transceiver, "Are you breathing normally?"
Kioshi sputtered, with Mistress' voice stirring inside her head, "St-stop... I... I can't... Think..."
"Hmhmhm~" Mistress chuckles, watching her new puppet squirming in place, paralyzed with indecision, indecisive on what to do next.
"You still seem a bit shaken, so I would like for you to take a few deep breaths with me." Mistress offered to help Kioshi calm down once and for all.
Kioshi was ready to take a series of deep breaths - a final part of her was still desperately clinging on to her sense of control, hopelessly trying to stop Mistress' power... "Gaa... Aaah... N... No..." Kioshi stuttered...
Mistress enjoyed watching Kioshi last, futile struggles in defeat. Such a stone-cold and formidable fighter, now a pitiful, weakened puppet stringed underneath Mistress' flippers...
"Now then..." Mistress commanded, "Breathe in..."
The two took a deep breath in... Kioshi unwittingly breathing in more of the hypnogas...
...
"And breathe out..."
They slowly exhaled... The back of Kiohsi's mind slows down and relaxes, the panic inside her subsiding...
...
"Breathe in..."
They inhale again. "Aaah...", Kioshi trembled, giving off a feeble little noise as she inhaled.
...
"And breathe out..."
And they exhale... Mistress watches those crimson eyes gradually fade into a pure, glossy finish.
...
"Breathe in..."
The gas smelled and tasted like a strange mixture of fruit...
...
"And breathe out..."
...
"Breathe in..."
...
"And breathe out..."
...
...
...
Kioshi continues taking deep, deep breaths with her Mistress. The back of her mind gradually shuts down from the pollution of hypnogas, her reasoning to resist orders are silenced, and her thoughts are replaced by that sweet, seductive voice taking control of her...
~~~~~~~~~~~~
Just a few minutes ago, Kioshi Koyokami was a cold, hardened, and focused fighter. She could fistfight a gang without breaking a sweat and cross several counties in a single night.
Now, she is a calm, docile, and obedient hypnodiver staring into the abyss. Her mind is a blank slate, unable to think of anything but what her Mistress tells her. She doesn't even care about what happened beforehand, nor what she will do next. All she wants more than anything is to obey her Mistress.
To Mistress, Kioshi is yet another pawn in her legion, and is by far one of the strongest pieces in her set.
"I've waited quite a long while for this. With the help of your friend, and several months of planning, now, you're finally mine~! I can only imagine how many people we will catch with you on my side~"
Mistress relishes the defeated, submissive look on Kioshi's face, like a reflection on a trophy.
Kioshi looks back, speaking to her new Mistress in a subordinate, obedient voice, "I am looking forward to working with you, Mistress."
"Of course you are, my dear Kioshi, but remember this..." Mistress gives a message with sincerity...
"I have no intention of hurting you. My legion practices a strict code to ensure every hypnodiver remains healthy and in top shape. Even if you are under my control, you are my responsibility. You are safe with me."
"Yes, Mistress." Kioshi calmly replied, feeling safe with Mistress by her side.
