Medusa Touch

Ah yes, the Liveman Sentai team! They are one of my favorite Sentai teams and their profiles suit my taste. Heroes should be young and hopeful, not professionals as part of a secret organization. That being said, being young students can have its downside especially in controlling emotions against monsters!

Let’s just hope that the Livemen can swim!

Special thanks to my royal and loyal patrons:

Prepare yourselves for a tentacle threat!

.

.

“That’s right, little guy! Feel me groping your mouth!” said a monster man sneeringly as the tentacle extending from her arm gagged a helpless young shirtless man.

The demon didn’t care about all the other people running in terror. He already got some of them trapped in the slippery and sticky translucent jelly anyway. The more they tried to escape, the harder it became to move. They fell over and over again, spilling the cursed liquid all over their faces without knowing the strange property it had.

The jellyfish monster didn’t care, but the heroes did. Some people ran in the opposite direction to face him. Four young men presented themselves in their beach attire. “Stop right there, Brain Beast!” called out the leader in the middle.

The threat made the monster stop his lewd torment. “Hmm, who are you pesky people are supposed to be?”

“We are the warriors who protect all living things!” said the youngster in red pants. “Red Falcon!”

His body glowed with a digital outline before completely transformed into a superhero in a falcon-themed spandex suit. His teammates followed.

“Yellow Lion!”

“Black Bison!”

“Green Rhino!”

The monster observed the group. “What can four children do against me?”

“Make that five!” declared a girl who somersaulted between her friends. Her graceful pose preceded her transformation sequence. Her body glowed in electric blue energy that solidified into an elegant dolphin-themed female warrior costume. “Blue Dolphin!”

Red Falcon led the team’s introduction. “Great Beast Force Liveman!”

The jellyfish monster let go of his newest victim. The boy could only squirm on the ensnaring jelly just like his peers. The demon took a few steps forward to get a better view of these superheroes. His hand caressed his cheeks while pondering. “I think force-feeding Livemen with my special goop will be an interesting afternoon activity.”

“A sick monster like you has no place on this Earth. You are an abomination to all blessed forms of life!” intimidated Black Bison sternly.

“What you did to these people is unforgivable!” threatened Green Rhino.

“No mercy for us as you have shown no such thing!” exclaimed Blue Dolphin while crossing her arms.

“If you stop now, we might give you a faster route to your end!” added Yellow Lion while cracking his knuckles.

“We will have this beach cleaned of you in no time!” remarked Red Falcon as he pointed his finger at the waiting monster.

That only made the jellyfish monster chuckle. “The only thing that will be cleaned is your heroic soul. My slime will rinse all traces of hope in here, here, and here!” The demon pointed at his head, chest, and between his armored legs. He let out an echoing guffaw.

His chest suddenly got struck by three energy beams. “Argh!”

“You talk too much!” blurted Red Falcon who then transformed his ranged weapon into a melee sword. “Hyaah!”

The monster welcomed the charging Livemen. “Five against one? That’s more like it!”

He easily dodged Yellow Lion’s energy beam before blocking his Lion Punch gauntlet. Jou was slashed by barbed tentacles coming from his enemy’s stomach. The monster’s mad laughter signified his satisfaction of tormenting the hero.

He kicked Yellow Lion away just in time before Green Rhino and Black Bison rushed in. The two expected an easy fight with their respective Sai Cutters and Bison Rod, but the monster simply disappeared. His quick movement looked like teleportation for the heroes and they ended up getting hit by his dreaded tentacles too. Their chests burned with sparks as they were thrown back onto the sand.

The three Livemen gathered. “Let’s do this the old-fashioned way,” said Red Falcon who nodded to his teammates. The trio of Red, Yellow, and Blue Sentai heroes united their weapons to form a cannon. “Triple Bazooka!”

“Already using the big guns? It seems that you’re getting desperate!”

The mocking was ignored by Red Falcon. He used the attached Falcon Saber as his targeting sight. The demon’s ugly face was right in the middle of the crosshair. His index finger was ready on the trigger.

Red Falcon was shocked when the weapon abruptly moved. The aim was now against the two weakened Green Rhino and Black Bison Livemen on the sandy beach. Neither them nor the targets had time to do anything about it. The trigger was already pressed.

A huge explosion rocked the place. Green and Black Livemen were thrown high in the air before tumbling back onto the sand. With blistering costumes, the two betrayed heroes writhed in agony as the energy attack was too much for them. “No, why…” groaned Jun’ichi as the green warrior.

“What happens is one of yours is already mine!” snickered the jellyfish monster.

Red Falcon and Yellow Lion were aghast. The two startled heroes were easy targets for their corrupted teammate. Blue Dolphin installed choke collars on their necks. Immediately, excruciating pain emitted from the cursed items. Its randomly-protruding spikes pulsated as the heroes felt stabbing torment that pierced their spandex costume.

Red and Yellow dropped the now-useless cannon while Blue Dolphin simply observed. “Blue, no…” called out the team leader to his passive friend.

Blue Dolphin simply kicked him on the visor, sending the spandex warrior rolling on the sand. She also kicked the helmet of her other teammate. All while she giggled.

“You Livemen should care more about your teammates. She’s been missing for two days and none of you suspect anything? No wonder she cried until her eyes swelled when I tortured her. Now, the inviting Blue Dolphin dreams of my goop every night and day!”

Blue Dolphin clicked the side of her helmet. She removed it to reveal her current state. It shocked the heroes to the core.

She was Megumi that they knew, but with horrifying changes. For one, she was being suffocated inside a translucent latex-like material. Even when she giggled, her expression instead showed terror. Her mouth opened and closed as if desperately trying to get some air. Her entire head moved around in torment.

“Megumi!” cried out Yusuke as Red Falcon, still denying the nightmarish fate his teammate must suffer. While groaning both due to his pain and anger, he barked at the monster. “What have you done to her?!”

“Making her my polyp slave. Even heroes like you can only endure so much of my neurotoxins. The longer you stay, the more you lose your heroic self until nothing is inside except the uncontrollable to serve me as your master. You should have seen her screaming and rejecting her unavoidable end. She put hope on you to come and save her.”

“You never came,” said Blue Dolphin monotonously. “I waited and waited while he violated my mind and body, but you never came. You said we are a team, best friends, and a family. That was all a lie.”

“No…” Red Falcon found it hard to refute that claim. “That’s not… We didn’t even know what happened to you!”

“How could you not know what happened to me?! Did you even try to look for me for those days when I went missing? When I was ambushed and cornered by a demon who took me to his unspeakable Mother? You have betrayed me and now you will suffer as I am.” Megumi moaned hard. “You will suffocate with me!”

“No, Megumi, don’t!”

“Why are you pleading for mercy to her anyway? Don’t you realize that your fates will be decided by me?” The jellyfish monster casually approached the beaten Yellow and Red Livemen. Behind him, the ocean rose with something wicked inside. When the waves burst, it revealed a massive jellyfish kaiju with multiple tentacle arms. Its expansive bell-like cap bulged out with vibrant hypnotic lights. Below it was a forest of shorter tentacles. Into it a group of enslaved teens walked. “Come to your doom, children!” grinned the ravenous humanoid monster as more and more of the youngsters walked past him.

Behind him, his new slaves screamed as the tentacles stung them. Completely under his control, they couldn’t stop. They kept pushing the agonizing translucent appendages until they disappeared behind. There were gut-wrenching cries not coupled with gross gulping noises long after.

“No, please stop…” cried Jun’ichi the Green Rhino Liveman when he saw the numerous teens being pulled up by the massive jellyfish kaiju. They fruitlessly tried to claw their way out of the elastic bell skin. The continuously-stinging tentacles wrapped their bare bodies. Some even got their mouths gagged by those diabolical limbs. Pushed beyond their sanity, they shrieked in unimaginable woe.

The Liveman Sentai heroes didn’t have to imagine the unimaginable because the monster is coming for them. The gigantic jellyfish moved out of the water. While his mind was scrambled by the spiky choke collar, Red Falcon could still understand the seriousness of their situation. Desperate times call for desperate measures. The team leader reached out for his saber and converted it to pistol mode. He aimed it at the Blue Dolphin’s face. “I’m sorry, Megumi. This hurts me more than you do.”

He pressed the trigger and the energy beam burst Megumi’s suffocating slime cocoon with an ungodly screech. The female hero gasped as her consciousness returned. Dropping on the sand, she was barely able to speak. “Whuh… What happened?”

“Watch out!” Yellow Lion pushed Red Falcon out of harm’s way when the kaiju shot out a long tentacle. He yelled in pain as the stinger-filled tendril wrapped around his neck. Inside his helmet, his eyes went wide and his mouth drooled.

“Jou!” called out Yusuke, but his friend was already gone. Yellow Lion was pulled hard into the waiting tendril swarm just like the teenagers before. His muffled screams slowly disappeared. “You bastard!”

“More of that where it came from, Hero,” laughed the jellyfish humanoid form. “My mother will caress your friend until he squeezes out all bits of his own humanity. Just like what she will do to you.”

Out of the massive jellyfish’s underside, a group of big balloons drifted out. Their movements were strange, not following the beach wind pattern although trying to mimic it. Two of them approach the hurt Black Bison and Green Rhino. They zapped the heroes with weird beams of light. The moment Tetsuya’s and Jun’ichi’s visor were hit, they shrilled. “My head! My head! ARGH!” screamed Black Bison while holding his helmet as if it would soon explode.

Other than writhing and squirming on the sand, the two Livemen couldn’t mount a meaningful resistance against the coming bubbles. Tetsuya tried to punch the one that came for him and it turned out to be the worst mistake of his life.

“It’s… It’s pulling me!” Between the mental torture and the threat from the balloon, Black Bison was in a panic. He couldn’t pull his fist the moment it plunged into the rubbery skin. Instead, he was pulled deeper into it.

“Tetsuya!” In his disarranged state, Jun’ichi couldn’t do anything to save his friend especially when the other balloon was upon him. The cursed object jumped high before slamming onto the flat Liveman. His shock was soon deadened. When the balloon bounced again, Green Rhino was stuck with it.

Jun’ichi tried to push himself out but his body got slammed into the sand. Instead of being freed, he was dragged deeper into the suffocating balloon. It was not hollow, but solid with the same stretchy substance inside. Green Rhino and also Black Bison were being slowly drowned in the choky pool of liquid latex. Both Jun’ichi and Tetsuya were losing their consciousness as their air got depleted. What they got was that perverting smell of rubber.

“Tetsuya! Jun’ichi!” Red Falcon had just removed his choke collar with the pistol when he realized the disaster. The bouncing balloons got his teammates and now gleefully played with them by slamming them over and over again onto the sand. The worst thing about it was the balloons were getting closer to the massive jellyfish’s bell.

Red Falcon was in time to convert his energy pistol into its saber mode. A tentacle wrapped around the weapon. The team leader fought hard and did not want to let go of it. Instead, he channeled his energy onto the blade that lit up to burn the tendril. He slashed the remaining appendage, making its owner roar in pain.

“Why don’t you just give up and be smothered inside my mother?!” blurted the humanoid jellyfish monster just before Red Falcon cut his chest with a double sword attack. This time, the hero’s movements were too fast for him. “ARGH!” screamed the demon before he exploded into a disgusting burst of goop.

Red Falcon put out a fighting stance against the massive jellyfish. The balloons were almost underneath it, dangerously close to the swarm of hurting tendrils. With short breaths, Yusuke turned to his remaining teammate. Megumi was still recovering from her time inside the cocoon. “It’s up to you now, Megumi!”

“Yusuke, stop! It’s not gonna work!” cried out Blue Dolphin.

“But it is worth trying!” Yusuke readied himself and charged forward.

His plan was abruptly stopped by another bouncing balloon that hit him in the gut. The Red Falcon was thrown back. Before he even got the time to get back up and understand what just happened, tentacles struck him hard. His abs, biceps, and pecs were injured with bursts of sparks. The team leader contorted and wince helplessly. Then a shadow loomed over him.

Yusuke was struck by a tentacle again. This time, it directly stabbed the mouthguard of his helmet. He desperately tried to remove it, but his grip only let the stingers pierce his glove. The pain was too much, but it was nothing compared to what came next.

The tentacle broke through. Not even the solid helmet material could stop it. Yusuke was forced to swallow the cursed tendril as it filled his mouth. Immediately, he felt dread as the toxins invaded his body system. Red Falcon kneeled, but the yellow balloon pulled him in instead.

“Yusuke!” cried out Megumi as she stopped her rush. She wasn’t sure that helping his teammate was a good idea anymore. They were all being demolished. Not even the toughest Liveman could save them now.

The disturbance inside the yellow balloon protruded out as Yellow Lion in a spread eagle position. Red Falcon was forced to kiss his groin with the gagging tentacle. “Jou!” called out Blue Dolphin.

“Why did I fight? Why was I so stubborn? There was… There was no way to fight the pain… Mother owns me now. She suffocates me in her goop and stingers for eternity.” The captured Yellow Lion’s helmet looked down while the balloon shot out two more tentacles that stabbed Red Falcon on both sides of his helmet. “YOU HAVE FAILED!”

The scream broke Red Falcon’s mind. He could only see the projection of what happened to Jou before. Yellow Lion struggled in vain as he got dragged into the crushing goop. His arms and legs were made spread out before a group of jellyfishes surrounded him. They turned around, pointing their underside toward the impotent hero before shooting him all of their calamitous tentacles. Jou screeched with the highest pitch as misery consumed him. Losing its power, his suit only made him a victim with a freakish costume.

“ARG… FELLEDGH…” Still gagged, Yusuke the Red Falcon cried inside his helmet. The thought of losing the team under his command that was force-fed into his brain broke him. He shivered as his muscles ached in despair. That was the cue needed for the final push. Another balloon behind him.

Megumi had made her escape. She also had the horrible mental projection. It destroyed her heroic spirit. All she wanted now was to get away from the battlefield as much as possible. She was never worthy to be a hero. She should change her identity so that the monsters couldn’t find her.

But they did. Shadows passed her. Those were round shadows.

One of the balloons appeared right in front of Blue Dolphin. She didn’t have the time to dodge and got bucked hard by the recoil. Megumi was made rolling on the sandy beach.

The former heroine didn’t dare to look at her attacker. She simply rushed in another direction in panic. That plan didn’t work as another balloon stopped her just like before. “Please… Please let me go!”

But the inflatables continued to harass her. Fast-moving shadows made her lose it. She ran and fell and ran again in extreme fright. Her heroic costume meant nothing by now. She might still have some power to fight, but what was the use of that if she didn’t even believe in her own power?

Megumi squealed when she found out that she was already surrounded.  Four balloons of different colors encircled her from all directions. On their rubbery surfaces, the captured male Livemen figures bulged out. Their prisons already made work on their corruption as shown by the suits getting very, very tight and the growing groins. As Blue Dolphin dropped kneeling in defeat, the balloons approached her even more.

The enslaved Livemen’s helmet visors shot out the same zapping energy that got Tetsuya and Jun’ichi before. Four of them zap Megumi’s eyes in turns, over and over again. With it, her remaining heroic identity was erased. Her memories of fighting with them were replaced by indulgence of serving their new Mother and her tentacles. Her hopes of supporting each other in good and bad times were dominated by the all-consuming sense of inferiority before their monstrous mistress. The Blue Dolphin Liveman heroine was turned into a babbling slut girl.

And she was the perfect catch for the Mother. The massive jellyfish was already behind her. From its expansive bell cap, another shape appeared. It was a female, a siren that looked so beautiful to hide her deadly nature.

The human form reached out to the defeated Megumi. Her translucent arms fondled with the spandex-clad heroine, even making her moan and whimper while exploring the private parts. Her neck then stretched out beyond humanly possible so that the head was facing Megumi’s face.

She took a look at the broken Sentai heroine. Megumi’s eyes filled with dried tears, her face red, her nose clogged with snot. It was perfect. The Mother kissed Megumi long and hard.

It was not a kiss of passion or love. It was a kiss of voracity. The Blue Dolphin Liveman found it too late that more and more of her face was getting deeper into the monster’s elastic mouth.

She tried to fight, punching and pounding against the rubbery figure but her fate was already sealed. Megumi’s head was completely devoured, then her breasts, then her waist, thighs, legs, and finally, her damaged boots. 

Gone was the last member of the Liveman team. The next time she appeared was as a decoration on the Jelly Mother’s bell cap just like the other youngsters who were forced to spend their miserable little lives completely aware of their surroundings but couldn’t do anything about it. As the multicolored balloons reentered the monster’s belly for the last time and the giant retreated back into the darkness of the deep ocean, Yusuke successfully sent his team into their doom. It was a fact that the tentacles that jammed his head would remind him for all eternity!
