MANGA: READ UP TILL THE END OF CHAPTER 81 OF VOLUME 10
ANIME: WATCHED UP TILL THE END OF EPISODE 53
The last remaining hollow has finally been slain. All of them have been taken down by a tall and muscular anthromorphic wolf wearing his shihakusho, plated boots along with plated armor on his arms and on top of his shoulders and also happens to wield a sword. That is Sajin Komamura, who happens to be the 7th division captain of the soul society.
Half an hour ago, he received some serious info about a bunch of hollows in the world of the living and we're talking about hundreds. Captains were in serious need and the dotted locations were so far away that it would take them hours to head to the next so help was not an option.
Not only that, something seems to be wrong with the gateway that connects between both worlds. You can head to the world of the living but your unable to go back which happens to be the problem so all the soul reapers sent to slay the hollows will have to wait until the problem gets fixed.
Komamura stuck his Zanpakutō to the ground and bent down a bit breathing heavily, the hollows may be low ranked but there were hundreds and it left him exhausted.
"*pant* *pant* finally it's over. I've saved all those innocent souls, I hope they'll be alright in the soul society." He said to himself. He got back up and looked around, "Now where am I? I got so focused on the battle I didn't notice where it took place."
By looking around, the captain will probably have noticed that he was completely away from civilization: around him it could only be seen tree after tree, not even a shadow of a landmark or something. The moisture in the air however was what truly made him realized in what kind of place he ended up in: He was in a jungle and a deep one at that!
Komamura didn't seem bothered that he ended up there. He couldn't help but feel amazed by the surroundings.
"Wow." He thought to himself, "I never knew the world of the living had something this beautiful. I suppose I wouldn't hurt to look around since I can't go back at the moment." He put his Zanpakutō away and started walking.
Yes, Sajin was right... The jungle was lush and blooming, a lot of exotic plants and flowers growing under the shade offered by trees and rocks. Various animals running around, standing or climbing around the wolf swordsman, not even noticing him as he walked down his path. Unfortunately for him, he will soon find out that going deeper in this unknown land might be a bad idea.
Komamura kept looking around as he continued walking, still thinking to himself.
"It's so beautiful. So many types of plants and animals to. I wonder if this world has other types of nature related places. Maybe I'll ask Ichigo or one of his friends if I ever see them while I have time in my hands."
While during his stroll the captain saw new types of life form, he failed to realize that he also got finally the attention of one of them: a Burmese python to be precise, who was lazily lying his coils around some branches. He looked down and the moment he laid his gaze on the wolf, he got his interest instantly! He never saw a creature like him before so he HAD to take this chance to capture him now! So he slowly slithered by the treetops, waiting for the right moment to strike.
Komamura was more vulnerable than the python thinks, he's still tired from that fight against all of those hollows. He decided to stop walking now and try to regain some of his strength, so he sat down on the ground with his legs out with his palms held on the ground.
As he saw his prey sitting, the python also saw his opening to act! He slowly lowered his head towards the anthro wolf while his tail was slithering behind his back, hidden by a tree not far from where he was sitting “Hello there ssssstranger, are you losssst?” he hissed, trying to distract him with a chat and get his attention, so he would not notice his tail.
Komamura flinched the second he heard that voice. He quickly got up and turned to the direction where he heard it.
"Did that python just speak?" He thought to himself. Luckily for the python, he failed to notice the tail even after getting up and turning.
“Becausssse if you are, I'll be happy to help you find your way back, sssssssir.” the python continued, lying of course, as his tail continued moving, now close to the ground.
Komamura decided to be polite and not act surprised. After all, he’s an unusual being in both soul society and world of the living.
"Oh that's okay, I'm good." He replied, "I'm just looking around, I'll find my way out once I'm ready."
As the python got closer, he could actually see how tired the swordsman was, and even two or three bruises on his body, since he got into a fight “Are you ssssssure? It looksss like you just had a bad time! Got into a fight? I hope you are not injured.” the snake commented, secretly feeling even more at ease knowing his prey wasn't in his top form.
"Oh just had a battle against some evil spirits." Komamura explained, assuming the python knew nothing about hollows. "I'm really skilled but there were hundreds of them so it took a lot out of me."
"Evil spirits?! This guy must have took a really hard blow to the head, that's for sure" the python thought, skeptical of his prey's words. Nevertheless, his plan did not change “Are you ssssssure you don't need my help then? I'm convinced I can be ussssseful to you in one way... Or another.” he hissed, just before his yellow eyes turned into a black and white spiral as his gaze locked into the one of Komamura, and his tail was crawling closer to his body.
Before Komamura could respond, he noticed the pythons eyes changing colors and for some reason, he couldn't take his eyes off of them and he couldn't help but feel some relaxation.
“That'ssss it! Jusssst look into my eyessss, and fell under my ssssspell.” The python said as his tail now made his way to the half-entranced warrior, as it began to coil around his waist.
Komamura tried to back away or at least tear his eyes away from the python's but he just couldn't. He then feels part of his shihakusho tighten against his waist not knowing the python was wrapping him up.
“Don't ressssissst. Jussssst let thissss happen.” The python whispered, his forehead now pushed against Sajin's, as he made sure he was taking in all of the spirals as he coiled his muscular torso.
And he appears to be succeeding, it's becoming even harder for Komamura to resist especially with the feeling of his shihakusho tightening him higher up starting with his waist.
“Yesssss, fell into thissss tranccce... Become entranccced.” The python lulled, as he was now coiling Komamura's big chest...
Komamura was getting even more entranced and that tightening feeling from his shihakusho was making it much harder as well.
The python had not only finished coiling the wolfman's chest by now, he had even pinned his arms against his side with his coils, he only had the neck left to trap and he would be almost completely immobilized. The spirals in his eyes also had probably pretty much melted any mental resistance from him anyway.
Only a tiny bit of resistance remained in Komamura. He wanted to react, he wanted to try to tear himself away from the python he just won't seem to do it. He's about to lose his remaining resistance any second now.
With his neck now in the snake's grasp, that was something highly unlikely at best and downright impossible at worst, and then there is the whole fact that now the anthro swordsman could not even move his head away from the pythons gaze because of how his coils blocked the movement of most of his muscles, leaving him completely defenseless.
A big smile appeared on his face once his neck got wound up. His is now fully hypnotized.
The python however was a rather meticulous creature: he kept hypnotizing his prey for a bit to make sure he won't get out of his trance too soon. Once he was done he started to slither away with the entranced canine, his movement however quite slowed down because of the size of who he had trapped in his coils.
Better safe than sorry, Komamura remained still with that smile on his face. He still hasn't shown any sign of even the slightest resistance.
“Too easssssy.” The python smugly commented as he entered a cave. Normally he would have just climbed on the treetops, enjoying the company of his prey there, but with someone as big as Komamura, it would be a miracle if the branches didn't snap under their weight, let alone the whole effort necessary to lift someone like him up there!
Komamura, wrapped up leaving his head and legs sticking out, remained fully entranced. Now that they're inside the cave, who knows what the python will do to him.
Once inside his "home", the python uncoiled his entranced prey, ready to make some "fixing". “Now, ssssstranger before we sssstart, tell me, do you have a name?”
Komamura remained lying down even though the python uncoiled him.
"Sajin Komamura." He responded.
“Good... Well Sssssajin, you sssshould get rid of that weapon you got” The python said pointing to the sword with his tail, “It makessss hard for me to coil you and we don't want anyone to get hurt by an acccident, do we?” he asked rhetorically.
Obeying without question, Komamura got up and carefully withdrew his Zanpakutō and placed it on the ground gently and then sat back down.
“Good boy, let me put it in a sssssafe placcce” The python said as he grabbed the sword with his tail to drag it away “Now, how about having ssssome fun? Tell me Ssssajin... are you ticklissssh?” he asked.
Komamura nodded, "Yes I am."
The python was surprised, “Who would have thought? You looked like tough guy, after all!” He commented, before slithering towards his boots “Now let'ssss take thessse off.” He continued as he coiled around one of them and removed it. Then he used his mouth to remove the sock, pulling it away before spitting it on the ground, as his other tail was busy removing the other shoe. Once that was taken care of, the other sock was quickly gone as well, in just one swift motion!
The fully hypnotized Komamura remained sitting, this time barefooted and without his Zanpakutō.
The python coiled part of his body, around the ankles, taking a good hold of Komamura's feet as he began to move his tail towards his right sole.
Komamura wiggled his toes a bit despite being fully hypnotized.
“Ssssensible, are we?” The python asked as his tail started moving up and down the Captain's sole.
Komamura immediately started giggling from the tail brushing against his foot,
"Heeheeheeheehee."
“Here we are.” The python said as his tail was now playing with his toes, moving between them and tickling them.
"HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!" Komamura moved his toes around as they were being tickled.
“Already lossssing your cool? Well, unfortunately for you we have jusssst began!” The python said, before he stuck out his tongue and began to use it to tickle his left sole!
Komamura just laughed even more, "HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!"
Now it was the turn of his left toes to be tortured, as the python used a similar strategy the he adopted for the right ones, only it was much worse, because his tongue, being thinner than his tails, could easily move between them more easily!
Tears were coming down Komamura's eyes during the tickling.
"HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!"
Thankfully for him, the python stopped as he thought he did enough for now, and didn't want to make his prey faint from tickling, so he also released his ankles, freeing him.
Once the tickling stopped, Komamura took a couple deep breaths. He remained sitting while still smiling, not having a care in the world.
“You know, my prey... It's pretty hot in thissss jungle, moissssture and all... Ssssso it would be a good idea if you removed your clothesss now, keeping only the bare minimum neccessary.” the python commented, looking back at Sajin.
Komamura got up. Once he did, he took off his plated armor and shihakusho and dropped them on the ground leaving him with only his underwear on. Muscles can be seen on every bare part of his body.
“Wow, you already looked pretty buff with that odd clothing on, but now.” You really do keep yoursssself in good shape, eh?” Commented the python looking at him from head to toe.
Komamura remained standing, still smiling not caring what's happening around him.
“Ssstill deeply entranced? Maybe I overdid it... Doesssn't matter asss long asss you follow my instructions! In fact, I have a new task for you!” the python said before laying part of his long body in front of Komamura, “I want you to walk on top of my coilsss. Don't worry, you won't hurt me. I can take guysss as heavy asss you with no problem! I don't mind the weight!” he explained.
Komamura began walking over to the python. Once he got close, he stepped up on the python's coils and started walking. He could feel the python's scales against the soles of his bare feet for every step he took.
“Good dog... Ah, it feelsss great!” the python said, as he started to make a path out of his body for his entranced prey to walk on. It started pretty simple at start, but then it became a bit more...tricky to traverse.
Komamura was enjoying the feeling of his soles making contact with those smooth and scaly coils. Suddenly, his walking was started to slow down and the smile on his face was slowly dropping. That can only mean one thing, the hypnosis was slowly starting to wear off.
He remained standing, he still doesn’t have enough free will to resist. The hypnotic effect still has to wear off some more in order for that to happen.
“Mmmh? Why did you sssstop, my...?” The python began to say as he felt that his prey had stopped walking, before he realized that he was actually waking up from his trance as he saw the expression on his face and the look of his eyes “Oh no you won't!” He said as he leveled his head with his and began to once more fill his eyes with back-and-white entrancing spirals.
Komamura didn't get enough time to resist. And now, he's looking into the python's spirally eyes.
"Stop. S.....stop." He begged, but it was no use. After a few minutes of being hypnotized, that big smile appeared on his face once again.
“Ssshhh. It'sss alright... Everything will be good... It's time to sssleep.” The snake cooed as he began to coil up Komamura once more. It was getting late in the jungle, close to sunset, and the python wanted to make sure that his prize would not run away after a night of rest.
With his outer clothing off of him this time, he could feel those soft and scaly coils around his exposed body and it felt really good. Every time a loop of coils was completed, that feeling gets even better.
Because this time the captain swordsman was entranced, the python finished coiling him up much sooner than before, as he didn't need to take his time to avoid being detected by him. “Good night.” The python wished before he yawned and laid his head on the ground, closing his eyes.
Komamura slowly closed his eyes and feel asleep, coiled up leaving only his head and his big feet sticking out.
The snake himself fell asleep soon after, resting as he looked toward to toy with his catch tomorrow some more.
Morning soon came, as Komamura slowly opens his eyes and he is no longer hypnotized. Once he was awake enough to notice his surroundings, he immediately realized he was coiled up by that python and that he's only in his underwear the second after that.
Unfortunately for him however, the grip that the python had over him was REALLY tight! Even in his sleep the python was capable of keeping his prey tied like he was a rope! The only thing the beastman could hope to do in order to achieve his freedom was to start squirming and struggling free!
Komamura knew he had to get out of here. He tried to pull himself out but he couldn't move his coiled up body even at the slightest. He began struggling as hard as he could but all he could do was move his head around and wiggle his feet since they were the only parts of his body sticking out.
Sadly for him, the heroic captain would soon find out that what he was doing was largely counter-productive as his movement woke up the burmese python. He lazily yawned as he rose his head before looking towards Komamura “Well, well, well. Look who issssssss awake! Early bird, are you? Or ssssssshould I ssssay, early canine?” the python asked, laughing at his own bad joke.
"What are you up to? Let go of me!" Komamura explained as he continued struggling a little more but still no luck.
"D**n it! I can't move. I didn't even now that python can even hypnotize. And now I'm in my underwear wrapped up in his coils. What's he going to do to me? Does other unusual stuff exist in the world of the living?"
“Oh, what? You want me to let you go? Let me think about that...” Said the python in a mocking tone, even feigning a pensive position, his tail poking where his chin would be if he wasn't a serpent “Nope, not going to do that, my friend! It'sssss too much fun having a guy like you around, or rather in my coilssssss, ssssssso let'sssss play a bit!” The python continued, answering his own question as he started to tighten his coils around Komamura body.
Komamura struggled even harder. Once again, only his head and feet were able to move around. It was no use, the python's coils were too strong, all Komamura can do now is let the python do whatever he wants with him and nothing else. He stopped struggling in an instant, taking a couple of breaths from exhaustion.
“Already giving up? I thought you were a warrior, conssssssidering the weapon you were carrying, but the truth isssss you lack the resssssolve required to be one!” The python taunted, as he was pretty sure that his words must have cutted the anthro swordsman more deeply than any slash from several blades he had to withstand during his many battles “Don't worry, though... I'll make ssssssssure that you will enjoy your time here... Assssss my personal ssssssqueeze toy!” He added before squeezing him once more to make the point go across.
Komamura tried again, but with less stamina and tighter coils, no luck.
"I'm not your squeeze toy. I wasn't brought sure so you can treat me like some plaything. I'm not just a warrior, I'm a soul reaper and it's my duty to protect this world." His struggling stopped once more once he finished talking and took another couple breaths.
“Really? Then jussssst ansssswer thisssss one sssssimple quessssstion: How can you ssssssssave this world if you can't ssssssssave yourself?” The python asked, his tight coils not giving a break to poor Komamura.
"Because there are some opponents that others just can't beat. Besides, I didn't know you could hypnotize and if I did, I could just knock you out in an intent using only my bare hands." Komamura replied.
“Oh, sssssome big talk coming from sssssomeone now completely trapped inssssside my coilssss! I like it... You got fire in your belly mate! But unfortunately, that won't help you now. Your fate wasssss already sssssealed the moment we firsssst met!” The Burmese Python explained.
Komamura gulped, he now knew that there's no way to escape with all those coils wrapped around him. He has slayed millions of hollows in his life with ease, he even took some down at an elite level. And now here his, in the grasp of a Burmese python that has a powerful ability he did not know he had until it was too late.
“Sssssssso let's play another game, ssssssssshalll we?” The python asked rhetorically before forcing Komamura to sit down, and putting his tail rather close to his left foot.
Komamura flinched when he saw where the python's tail went, knowing that despite being tough and muscular, his big feet are very ticklish.
“I know what you have in your eyesssssss. That look many preysssss before you gave me. It'sssss fear, isssssn't it?” The python asked, the far end of his tail tied around Komamura's big toe, teasing him.
Komamura gulped, "Yes. It is." He replied as he wiggled the toes on his left foot a little after feeling the tail.
“Ssssso you admit it? Well, in that case I won't tickle you....too much!” The python joked before he began using his tail to tickle Komamura's left sole quickly!
"HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHASTOHAHAHAHAHAHAHAP." Komamura laughed out as he was wiggling his toes even more.
It didn't take too long for the python's tongue to also join the fun, using it on Komamura's free foot, moving it up and down his sole, doubling the tickling!
"HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHANOHOHOHOHOHOHO!!!"
Komamura just laughed and laughed. He would curl and wiggle his toes as his soles were getting tickled.
And it was only going to get worse! The snake in fact stopped tickling Komamura with his tail, but that moment of relief quickly became one of terror as he instead used it to grab a broken branch with some leaves still attached to it. “Coochi Coochi Coo.” The snake taunted as he used that item to tickle the one foot of the swordsman that wasn't already at the mercy of his forked tongue.
"GAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!"
Komamura was laughing so hard, he had no room to speak and tears were streaming from his eyes. Tickling has always been one of his biggest weakness.
Thankfully, the python finally got tired of tickling the bound swordsman, so he threw away the stick and let Komamura rest for a moment.
Komamura felt relieved that it stopped. He started taking a couple of breaths while still keeping his eyes closed.
That maybe was not the best of all ideas, because the python got in front of him as his eyes began to spiral again! If Komamura decided to open them, it was good night for him!
Komamura stopped breathing a lot and started to open his eyes. He totally didn't suspect the python to activate his hypnosis. The second he saw those spirally eyes, he already began sinking deep into it.
“Come on Komamura, losssssse all of your illussssssion of fear and sssssleeep, ssssssleeep.” The python almost sang.
Komamura's eyes started to droop slowly. He kept forcing them back open every time they were a second away from closing but it got harder every time he does that.
By now the python and the wolf's foreheads were touching each other as the evil reptile's hypnosis intensified “Let your mind go back to the pit of sssssslumber.” He simply whispered.
Komamura can only hear the python's voice and only see the spirals in his eyes, not to mention feeling those smooth and scaly coils still wrapped around his body except for his head and feet. He can no longer force his eyes open, his eyelids slowly dropping down. Soon, they're just about an inch away from being shut.
The grip of the coils around Komamura also kept tightening, hammering inside what was left of the swordsman's consciousness that there was no escape or release aside from eternal rest.
The tightening made it feel good even more. Komamura couldn't hold on anymore, his eyes have finally closed completely and the second it did he fell asleep.
