The Temptress Page 2


  "Yeah right," Frank looked down to find the gas can where it sat on the side of the bed. "You're just kicking me out like trash."

  Linda snipped the ropes on Frank's feet. "You are free to go. Please have a safe trip."

  Frank climbed out of the bed and then bent down to pick up the gas can.

  "Be careful you stupid man. You're not wearing a suit. You'll be exposed."

  "So I see. You secretly hate men and think we're stupid. You have to go through this elaborate ritual and put on a space suit just to touch us. Then you have to pretend to kill us just to have sex."

  "You're a fool!" Linda stared at him through the viewport in her helmet. "Put that down or you'll be killed."

  Frank took the cap off the can then smelled the contents. He held it over his head. Linda watched Frank disbelieving a man could be so stupid.

  "This little game of yours needs to come to an end. I'm gonna pour this stuff all over myself and you can come over here and do what you need to do. Then I'm going to rip you out of that get up and fuck you like two normal people would do."

  "I really don't think you should Frank."

  "Of course you wouldn't." Frank looked up at the can then decided to pour some of it on the floor.

  "That's XPF-13 Frank."

  Frank glanced quickly down as if expecting to see a giant hole being created, which there wasn't. He tipped the can over his head and the fluid inside began to splash onto his scalp. It coated his head and began to run down over his face. It splashed all down his torso as he angled the can so more could come out. "I feel the ting-- AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!"

  "It has no effect on the floor or anything else except for the fleshy part of the body, which it totally dissolves. It leaves only bones and fluids."

  Frank's cries of pain filled the whole room. The gas can fell to the floor as Frank began to thrash his arms around and shake his body trying to get the fluid off. The whole time he screamed.

  Under her helmet, Linda's eyes began to tear. She had never fully tested her potion on a living subject before and the joy she felt at knowing it was successful made her cry. Though she was emotional, she still knew she had to shut Frank up. She grabbed the sheet off the bed and shoved it into what was left of his mouth. Then she just stood there and watched as his body lost balance and fell to the floor still thrashing around. She picked up the gas can and poured additional XPF-13 over the remaining flesh that was still undissolved. She watched as the fluid poured in through the eyeholes in Frank's skull and began to dissolve his brain. Soon there would be nothing left but a wet skeleton and a stained carpet. She could easily clean away the mess then chop the bones into smaller pieces to dispose of.

  She didn't want to be a killer and resented that even in death men made her clean after them. She knew however, that men had to be dealt with and besides, she thought, this situation wasn't her fault. She had told Frank to go home. It's a shame how men don't listen.
