Minutes later came the concussive blasts of bombardment ordnance. Miss Hardeman quickly shepherded her students into the bunker beneath the classroom. Skirts rustled as the girls descended into the reinforced cellar in an orderly fashion. They had practiced the drill many times. The teacher closed the door and threw the bolts as the girls pulled their gas masks off wall pegs, fitted them snugly and pulled the activation tags. There was a chemical toilet in one corner, and enough prepackaged food and water to last the entire class for three weeks. For six days the girls huddled in the dimly-lit room, occasionally making half-hearted efforts to sing or joke to break the gloom settling over them. Once in a while tremors from the battles outside reached the bunker, shaking its occupants and knocking loose dust and debris. Miss Hardeman, a prime brunette who looked worried at the best of times, would listen to her hand-cranked radio through an earpiece for news of the outside world. The radio had no open speaker, for which she was thankful. With the earpiece, she could decide what, if anything, the children needed to know. What she heard didn't sound good; it was mostly desperate-sounding civil defense warnings peppered with shrill propaganda: "Stand fast! Don't give up an inch of ground! Relief is coming from the west!" On the sixth day, the announcer became frantic: "Save quit peut! Save yourselves! Save quit . . ." Then the station went silent. Even the carrier wave was gone. The girls must have seen her face grow ashen, because Shanta asked in a muffled voice, "Miss Hardeman? What's wrong?" The teacher pulled a smile across a reluctant face. ""Nothing," she lied. "Tell you what, girls; why don't we sing 'Frere Jacques?' We all like that one." Several shaky, timid voices of 12-year-olds began chanting in unison. "Frere Jacques, frere Jacques, Dormez-vous? Dormez-vous? . . ." As the children continued to sing, Miss Hardeman heard the faint whine and stutter of the broadcast station's transmitter sputtering back to life. Instead of the previous announcer, a deeper voice rumbled through the ether: "This city, formerly in unlawful opposition to His Majesty's will, is now under Navy occupation. All fighting will cease. All citizens are ordered to remain in their homes until further notice. Martial law is now in effect. Repeating: This city, formerly . . ." Miss Hardeman removed the earpiece. So, that was it. They were, effectively, dead. " . . . Sonnez les matines! Sonnez les matines! Ding, dang, dong, Ding, dang, dong!" She looked at her charges, huddled on the flood around her. They were all royalty or the daughters of major captains of industry; she knew what would happen to them. It was the reason they were gathered in the bunker in the first place. They were plum prizes for the occupation troops. Three of the girls in particular ? Melodi, Shanta and Jani ? would almost surely be taken alive if possible. They were daughters of the ruling duke, though by different mothers. Shanta and Jani were bred on concubines, but Melodi was mothered by the duke's own younger sister; thus he was both her father and grandfather, making her the greatest prize of all. As for Miss Hardeman, she had neither claim on royalty nor highly-placed family connections. She had been hired to run the tutoring program for the duke's daughters and for the daughters of other well-established leaders of the rebellion. She was a commoner, and when the soldiers came, there would be no special orders to take her alive. She would be more fortunate than her students. With as much false cheer as she could muster, she said "Very good, girls! That was excellent! Now, take your masks off for just a minute. There is something we must do." As the girls pulled their masks off, Miss Hardeman reached for a small cardboard box tucked behind a crate of ration packs. The girls knew nothing about the contents of this box. Inside were several dozen cyanide pellets. It would be a mercy, Miss Hardeman told herself, better this way than . . . Slowly the room became fuzzy. Miss Hardeman had trouble concentrating. She dropped the box. The girls noticed it as well; some tried to pull their gas masks back on, but it was a futile move. The gas being pumped through the air shaft from the surface was designed to defeat the charcoal filters in the masks. *** The roaring in Melodi's head subsided. As her vision cleared, she realized she was gagged. Her own panties had been wadded up, stuffed in her mouth and secured with heavy tape. She was upside-down, she could tell that much. She felt heavy steel bands around her ankles. Her legs were spread open, with her angles secured to each end of an iron bar suspended on chains. She wriggled a bit, the ponytail of her dark black hair bouncing back and forth beneath her. Her hands were cuffed behind her back, held in place by a leather strap around her belly. Her belly. She felt a distinct cool breeze across her belly. Melody realized with a start that she was naked. Then something touched her nose. She heard the raucous laughter of several men. Whatever it was, she felt it trace its way across her cheeks, then gently slap her across the chin. The laughter grew louder. As her eyesight focused, she could finally make out what was assaulting her face: a huge penis, the largest she had ever seen, considerably larger than her father's, and the duke was not unimpressive in that respect. Melodi struggled even harder, but uselessly; there was no escape from her bonds. She was dangling high enough that her face was even with the man's genitalia even as he stood upright. Out of the corners of the her eyes she could see her half-sisters, dark-skinned and dark-haired Shanta to her right, and sandy-haired Jani to her left, both equally naked, both bound and suspended in the same fashion, grunting and sniffling around the panties shoved in their mouths. Suddenly Melody felt her cheek sting under the recoil of a slap from the man's open hand. "Bitch," he rumbled. "Your sisters have been awake for 20 minutes." He stepped back so the girls could see him more clearly. He was tall, at least six feet, and appeared to be a hard, muscular man in his 30s. He had close-cropped black hair, steel blue eyes and was as unclothed as the girls were. In his right hand he clutched the loops of a leather whip. As their senses came back to them the sisters recognized the room as a chamber they had rarely visited, high in one of the tallest towers of the ducal castle. Narrow slit windows cut into the stone showed the dull red skies of sunset beyond. Their father had used this room on occasion for interrogation of prisoners; now his conqueror would use it for purposes even more sinister. Standing guard at the one entrance and surrounding the walls of the small, dark room were a dozen soldiers in combat armor, the picked guard for the man with the whip standing before them. He cracked the whip once, and the girls stopped their sniffling and crying to pay attention. "I am the crown prince, and you are the daughters of a proscribed rebel," he snorted. The crown prince! The girls felt cold chills grip their hearts. They had heard the most terrible stories about this man, tales they only half-believed from their father's propaganda machine, but if only half of what they had heard was true . . . "This planet is under the ultimate edict," the crown prince said, circling the girls and eyeing their exposed bodies carefully. "Every male on this planet except for those in His Majesty's Forces must die. Your father is already dead; his body was found in the rubble of his command center." He was behind them now; he listened carefully as groans and sobs worked their way through their gags. He appreciated the view of three sets of youthful buttocks wriggling helplessly in midair. "Your mothers were located as soon as our troops entered the ducal residence. When our soldiers were finished . . . indulging themselves, a regimental surgeon amputated their limbs." He lowered his voice even further. "They are now being fitted out for their new duties: providing 'relief' for the dogs of our K9 squads." On display before him were three virginal vaginas quivering for all to see. Trace amounts of down graced the lisp of both Shanta's and Melodi's openings; Jani's was still baby-smooth. "Your playmates have been given over as trophies to those of my troops who performed most excellently on the field of battle," he said, parting Shanta's lips to expose her little clitoris, hiding away beneath its hood. "Some of them may survive until morning. As for your teacher, I rewarded my personal guard here with some time alone with her. I believe they enjoyed it, but her service to the Empire is finished." Forty stories below, a propaganda film crew had taped Miss Hardeman's body as it hit the pavement. "But now to deal with you three. As the children of a rebel, you are under sentence of death. Sgt. Ebo, the blade, if you will." The girls jerked more frantically than ever, especially Shanta, who cried and tried to beg for mercy through a muffled mouth as the prince's fingers pried the opening of her vagina wider. The sergeant stepped forward and took the prince's whip, handing him instead a long, razor-sharp dagger, without ornamentation. The prince lowered the knife between Shanta's bronzed legs. "Hold still, bitch," he grunted, "and it won't hurt . . . much." Shanta bit down as hard as she could and prayed it would soon be over. Carefully, as one with much practice, the prince gently pushed the tip of the blade into her. He used it to nick her intact hymen, tearing it, staining the blade with droplets of blood and bringing forth grunts of pain from the girl. He withdrew the dagger, moving down the row to Melodi. Shanta, shocked she was still alive and terrified as to what it meant, heard her half-sister draw in a sharp breath as her own maidenhead was violated by steel. Finally it was Jani's turn. Her pubis was smooth, devoid of hair, and the prince was tempted to use his finger, but tradition demanded the blade. When he was done, he stood before the three sobbing half-sisters, some beginning to shake as they realized they had not been killed. He held the knife out where they could see their mingled blood on the tip. "As crown prince, I have the authority to hold your executions in abeyance," he said, wiping the blade clean of their virginity with a rag the sergeant handed him. The rag would be kept as a reminder to the girls of who their conqueror was. "You will be allowed to live," he continued, "as long as it pleases me to let you live." Approaching Melodi again, he slapped her hard across one cheek, then across the other. "You are mine. Your bodies are mine, your futures are mine, your lives are mine," he thundered, moving next to Shanta and delivering similar blows across her face. "You will receive this one warning. The rules are simple: Obey me and live. Disobey me and die." Stepping around behind Jani, he retrieved his whip from Sgt. Eco. Without warning he cracked it across Jani's back, causing her to flinch and yelp. "From now on, your sole purpose in life is to obey me," he snarled. In a sudden outburst of action, he dealt all three girls whippings across their backsides. The guards laughed again as the girls' bodies jerked under the blows. When he was finished with the whip, the prince dropped it and signaled for one of his men. "Send for the film crew," he said. "It's time to show the Empire what happens to the children of rebels." It took the propaganda crew a few minutes to make the trip up from the street where they had recorded the bloody end of Miss Hardeman; damage to the power grid meant the only working elevator was an old service lift with an emergency storage battery. As the cameramen set up their equipment, the prince held a knife to Melodi's throat. Soldiers turned the other girls' bodies so they could see their half-sister more easily. "When I remove your gags, you will call me 'master' and then suckle my cock," he said. "This signifies the surrender of your people to Imperial forces. It will be recorded and shown by delayed broadcast across the entire Empire as a warning to others who may contest the Emperor's will. Quintillions will watch. And if you should refuse, or try anything as ill-advised as biting . . ." He pressed the blade a touch harder. " . . . I will slit your throats. Understand?" The girls swallowed hard and nodded. Tears started welling up in Shanta's eyes again. It was becoming harder for all three to breathe, having been suspended in such an uncomfortable position for so long. The prince removed the knife from Melodi's throat. The threat was enough. The lead cameraman counted down. "3 . . . 2 . . . 1 . . . you're on, sire." The prince reached down and ripped the tape from Melodi's mouth, then yanked her panties out. She screamed for a moment from the pain of the tape being torn away; then she felt the prince cradling her head in his hands. "MasterrrrRRRMMPPH!" she spouted as he shoved himself between her lips. She barely had time to wet her tongue before she was licking his shaft from all sides, wrapping herself around the thick invader. She had often fellated her father, as had her sisters, kneeling between his legs, tasting the warm semen as it erupted and competing with each other to see who could take him in the deepest. But there was no warmth here, no loving desire of a father for his daughters. This thing was far larger than the duke's -- the girls had no way of knowing it was surgically enhanced -- and the prince was ramming the length of it up her throat, threatening to choke her. But she never stopped licking, a sign that she was an obedient little girl. He abruptly withdrew, leaving her gasping for breath even as Jani was forced to swallow that huge load down. The little blonde almost passed out from asphyxiation as his scrotum slapped against her face. Shanta was last, and as he ripped her gag away, she actually reached her tongue out to meet him, whispering "master" as she licked the tip of his glans. He was no more gentle with her than with the other two, and within a few seconds she found herself gagging on the same shaft of flesh that had nearly choked her half-sisters. For the next several months, as the video made its way from one end of the Empire to another, planet after planet would watch, often on giant screens in town squares or shopping centers, as three naked little girls were orally raped by the man who would one day be Emperor. Most of the crowds cheered, and many recorded the spectacle for their own private use later. Pulling out of the last girl's mouth, the prince stepped back and let out a groan of his own, ejaculating a river of semen onto the wooden floor. He had shown marvelous restraint in not coming inside any of the girl's mouths; none of the little whores had yet earned the privilege. Satiated, he stood for a moment, looking at his newest little slaves dangling in chains, still gulping down air as they tried to recover from his oral assault. "Lower them, but make sure they're still fully bound," the prince told his lead sergeant. "Then bring them downstairs to the Great Hall. The victory feast is in a couple of hours, and that will be the appropriate time to properly deflower these little beauties."
