Kitla was an Unbearably Tempting Target for Thema.
The Only Living Valkyrie to Ever Take on a Physical Body. Possessing Incredible Magical Power and Strength. A Devious Mind and a Passion for Tickling.
Also, This Valkyrie is Rumored to be Incredibly Ticklish~
It all started a while back when Thema was on the hunt for a new addition to her personal collection. The devious woman came across the perfect target and stalked him all the way into the forest. Just as Thema was about to make her move, she stumbled across Kitla who had been stalking the same victim as Thema. Both women immediately got into a fight over who gets the boy as both of them were about to take him captive. Turns out, Kitla also had a personal collection of ticklish trophies that she kept in a tower. Unable to agree on who should take the boy for themselves, both Kitla and Thema decided to let the boy decide instead.
The boy was given the ultimatum to choose whether he wanted to be taken by Kitla or Thema. The boy would make his decision after both women had a full day to subject him to their worst tickling methods available, then the boy would pick which one was more intense and the winner would get to keep him forever. The boy didn't agree to the game. He was then taken to Thema's dungeon and tickled non-stop for the entire following day. The boy was traded to Kitla the next day and was once again subjected to endless tickling torment.
By the end of both sessions, the boy couldn't decide between Kitla or Thema. Obviously, he needed to go through both sessions a second time.
This cycle went on day after day. The women were visiting each other so frequently that they'd become quite close to one another. Both Kitla and Thema had become very familiar with each other's collections and would even be treated to sessions with favored displays. After some time, trading their accessories became like a sort of tradition between them. The two even went on hunting missions together. It was hard to call the two of them friends, but Kitla and Thema were definitely some seriously dangerous allies.
Thema became quite familiar with Kitla and her abilities. Kitla's habits and interests were read by Thema and documented for research. Thema even began to decipher the Valkyrie's weaknesses.
One day, Kitla was invited to go on a hunt to find a new addition to Thema's collection. Kitla arrived at Thema's dungeon and was invited inside. As soon as Kitla had entered the building, the doors shut behind her and the lights all went dark. Kitla cast a spell that illuminated the area only to see a robotic hand descend from the ceiling and clamped a metal brace around the Valkyrie's wings. Just as quickly as the Valkyrie's wings were forced shut, the magic light faded away and Kitla's powers were nullified. Gas filled the room, and soon the ultimate prize was put to sleep.
Kitla woke up again after being bound to a chair with her arms above her head. The metal brace was still forcing her wings shut and nullifying her magical abilities.
Just as Kitla began to realize what was going on, Thema entered the room and approached her new prize.
= = = = = = = = = = =
Valkyries are extremely prideful and vengeful creatures.
Although not completely invincible, a Valkyrie possesses great power and intelligence. Any mortal foolish enough to offend a Valkyrie should beware a vengeance that could last centuries.
Thema learned first-hand what an angered Valkyrie is capable of.
It had been two days since Thema had captured Kitla and imprisoned the Valkyrie in a ticklish dungeon. Thema had spent most of that time personally keeping Kitla entertained with a steady stream of tickles. Thema seemed quite pleased with her newest prize and made sure to give this rare specimen the attention she deserved. Despite all the time spent in the dungeon, Thema would occasionally get tired and slip away to relax somewhere else while some machines were left to handle Kitla's tickling. Sometimes Thema would take a trip to Kitla's private gallery to enjoy the spectacle while it's curator was busy.
Kitla wasn't sure what bothered her more. Should she be upset that a mortal was using her as a toy or that the same mortal was willing to leave her alone to suffer some tickling with no one to watch.
It was at the end of the second day that Kitla gave her final warning to Thema, just before the women left to sleep for the night.
"Release me now or suffer the full wrath of an angered Valkyrie." Kitla warned.
"Oh please, do you really expect me to believe you'll let me go if I undo your bonds?" Thema teased.
"Not at all. You've already made your offence and will suffer the consequences for it. The difference between a hundred years of tickling versus an eternity is whether or not you let me go right now." Kitla said.
"Tempting. Maybe I'll sleep on it." Thema scoffed, then exited the room.
Kitla watched her captor walk out of the room just as the automated feathers came back to life.
"Oh bother... eeeeeeeeeEEEEEHAHAHAHAHAH!!!"
Being an immortal creature leaves you lots of time to think about situations in which you are trapped and cannot escape. Kitla has made many plans to help deal with these possible scenarios and has prepared many contingencies. One of these contingencies is a magic spell that was cast long, long ago when Kitla's tower was first being built. This spell was designed to be independent of Kitla so that it would remain active even if her powers were nullified. This spell was set to activate on a delay, and would teleport Kitla from anywhere in the world to its exact location after a certain amount of time had passed. To stop the spell from activating, Kitla would need to return to the designated location and extend the delay by any number of days. If Kitla were ever unable to return home in time to extend the delay, the spell would activate and free Kitla from any bondage she may be in.
As it would happen, the spell only had a few hours to go before activating on its own. At the strike of midnight, Kitla would be transported back to her tower where she would be free of her bonds.
Thema was sound asleep in her bed getting rest for another day of ticklish torment. As she filled her dreams with the sounds of tormented laughter, a strange sensation began to wake her from her slumber. Thema opened her eyes to see she had been plucked from her bed in the middle of the night by a miniature storm of clouds that had enveloped her body. Despite being able to see right through the clouds, Thema was unable to break free of their grasp as she was pulled higher and higher into the sky. As she was dragged off into the night, purple sparks began forming the clouds around her and continued to grow in power and frequency.
As she broke through the cloud layer, Thema was struck by the first bolt of purple lightning that formed in the clouds. Instead of being hot like regular lightning, this clearly magical force seemed to move right past her skin and directly struck her nerves underneath. The blast of stimulation flooded her mind and overwhelmed her completely. The single blast should've been enough to knock her unconscious, but some sort of force was keeping Thema from passing out. All Thema did in response was let out a tickle-induced shriek into the night sky as a second blast of lightning targeted her feet.
Over and over again, Thema was shocked with magical lightning that targeted every nerve on her body directly. Her mind filled with vigorous detail of every nerve's individual stimulation. Cackling laughter poured from her mouth and penetrated the still silence in the sky. Kitla watched this display with great satisfaction from behind Thema's body. As Thema's torment continued, Kitla summoned more magic and transformed the entire sky into one big magical storm, all of it targeted at Thema.
"Perhaps you should've listened to my warning and respected the wrath of a Valkyrie."
Kitla decided she would watch this display for the rest of the night before leaving Thema like this for a full seven days. Kitla meant what she said about an eternity of tickling, but had developed some respect for Thema and her personal interests. Kitla also wasn't sure if she wanted to waste the energy needed to keep a spell like this going for more than a week. The spell would continue to keep Thema in a perpetual state of ticklish hell and ensure she was awake for all of it. There wouldn't be a second of rest for the entire week as a new lightning bolt would fire before the last one full dissipated. Once the spell is finished, the clouds would gently return Thema to her bed with no physical harm being done to her.
Until the spell is complete, Kitla decided to pay a visit to Thema's dungeon and enjoy some of the toys it had on display. Perhaps she'd even pay a visit to a certain poof-cat Kitla noticed hanging around the facility.
