Before we begin the story, this is my first collaboration in a long time, I hope I still work well with others. Gabby actually asked me to post this story here, so here goes
-TBK
Six young couples stood in a large field. In front of them stood a man in a tuxedo. He stood at the mouth of a maze which covered nearly a square mile.
"The object of this maze is simple, to get to the other side. I will personally hand the couple who finds their way through first a check for two million dollars. You have all drawn straws to see the order in which you enter the maze." the man in the tuxedo said.
First in were Brent and Stephanie, a couple barely out of the teens and ready to begin their lives together. Brent was a fairly tall slender man with short cut blond hair. Stephanie was a petite raven haired beauty. The second couple was Brian and Ada. They both stood at about the same height and after five years of marriage finished each others sentences on a regular basis. Brian was a natural athlete and Ada looked as if she could be a model. Third was Gary and Francis. Gary was a tall man with a medium build in his early twenties. Francis was about medium height with long straight brown hair and was in her late thirties. Next in was Pat and Pam. Pat was a tall man with short cut brown hair. Pam was a fairly tall young woman, but still shorter than Pat, with long bright red hair and a constant calm gentle look on her face. Next was Eric and Christie. This couple were complete opposites, but happily married. He was tall and very skinny with black hair and a beard. Christie was a tall young woman, slightly overweight but concealed naturally by a very voluptuous body. The last couple in was Ben and April. Ben was about medium height and build and characterized by a slow walk and slow talk. April was about the same height, slim, and vivacious. As the door to the beginning of the maze closed the man in the tuxedo smiled.
"Maybe I should have told them about the death traps in the maze...nah maybe not." he laughed.
Nearly an hour after Ben and April walked into the maze Gary and Francis were the first to find out about their mysterious benefactor's lethal maze. They were walking along planning how to spend their two million dollars when something snapped under Francis' left foot.
"What was that?" Gary asked.
"I don't felt like something gave way under my toe." Francis answered.
There were several flashes along the end of the corridor they were in. Sphlut. Sphlut. Sphlut. Sphlut.
"Ooohhhh!" Francis screamed as both were bent over by bullets ripping into their round bellies.
Francis raised back up first as she folded both her hands on her wounded gut. Sphlut. Sphlut.
"Yaaahh!" Francis screamed as her large breasts shook.
"Francis!" Gary gasped as he straighted.
Sphlut. A blank look came over his face as a bullet tore through his heart. They fell side by side. Gary lay motionless and Francis twitched in her last pangs of death.
Several corridors away completely oblivious to their danger, Eric and Christie walked through the maze, well Eric walked but Christie fairly bounced along.
"What could we do with a million dollars?" Christie asked with a hint of a smile on her face.
"The man said two."
"Have to save some for a rainy day you know." Christie giggled.
Christie turned around to face him walking backwards through the maze. She almost stopped as her ankle hit a wire.
"What was..." Christie began.
Her question was answered quickly by a spear hitting her lower back, bursting from her big belly to penetrate Eric's belly.
"He didn't mention this." Eric grunted.
Christie whined as she fell over him.
Brian and Ada also walked along not knowing their dangers. They had moved two hours into the maze and were near the center. Both turned as they heard the sound of running feet behind them. Instead of behind them it was on the boards of the maze nearly above them. Neither had time to react as ropes were lassoed around them. As the loops slipped over their shoulders, the floor of the maze fell out from under them. Ada heard a sick crack as she fell. She knew the instant she heard it that Brian's neck had snapped, she had only an instant to realize it before another crack pounded in her ears, this was the sound of her own neck snapping. They both hung their kicking frantically as if it would help. Their heads were both tilted at odd angles, their eyes wide, mouths agape, and tongues lolled out of their mouths.
Several minutes later Pat and Pam walked through the maze nearing the end, they hoped.
"What would we do with two million dollars?" Pat asked as he put his arm around Pam.
"Oh I don't know, a little trip around the world, have a little fun, maybe join a health club and loose a little weight?" Pam asked with a slight smile.
"I think you're perfect the way you are, Pam."
"Maybe be but we could both stand a change." Pam said.
Pat pulled her closer to him and she lay her head on his shoulder. Pam rarely smiled and it was a beautiful sight when she did. Pam pulled away from him when they came upon an interesting feature in the maze. It was a pole in the middle of an intersection. On the pole was mounted what looked like a giant pendulum.
"I wonder what that's for?" Pam asked.
"I don't know, but I don't want to get too close that thing looks razor sharp." Pat said.
Something snapped under Pat's toe and the pole hummed slightly as it began to turn. The pendulum began to swing around as it turned. SSSSS-slucka-SSS-slucka-SSSSSS. The pendulum made one complete turn and stopped, leaving Pat and Pam with a stunned look on their face. In it's turned the razor sharp blade had sliced open their big bellies.
"Oooohhhhhhh!" Pat and Pam screamed together as their bowels exploded from their bellies.
They both crumpled spitting blood. They died in seconds from the shock of being gutted.
Brent and Stephanie were near the end of the maze and they had made it in under three hours. Sss-thap. Sss-thap. Sss-thap.
"Oohhhhh!" Stephanie screamed as she spun on her heel.
Her tiny hands were curled around the lower of two arrows stuck in her belly. Brent stood bent over with an arrow in his belly. Sss-thap. Sss-thap. Sss-thap. Stephanie's eyes bulged as she looked down at arrows in her big tits. She looked toward Brent, but he was falling holding an arrow that had just run up under his rib cage.
"Gauulkhh!" Stephanie spat as blood poured from her lips.
She fell beside Brent and both lay motionless.
Six hours after they entered the maze Ben and April came out the other side unscathed. The man in the tuxedo greeted them on the other side leaning on a walking stick.
"I'm impressed, you're the only couple to make it I'm afraid." he said as he motioned toward a row of ten tables.
On each table lay one of the other participants. They all lay on their back, stripped nude as if awaiting a coroner. Gary and Francis lay side by side. Their faces masks of pain, the skin pale from the loss of blood, bruised and open holes in their bellies and chests. Eric and Christie lay side by side, big bloody hole in their bellies, but little blood elsewhere. Their eyes stared up at the sky as if expecting something. Brian and Ada lay beside each other. Their heads still tilted at odd angles, burned wounds in their necks, and bloated bellies from hours of exposure. Pat and Pam lay side by side. Their eyes clenched in pain, blood still staining their lips, and their bellies looking oddly flat and empty. Brent and Stephanie were next Their clothes had been removed, but the arrows in them had not.
"Oh noo!" April gasped as she walked over to Gary, he was her brother.
Ben put his arm around her as he began to sob.
"Sorry, folks, I just didn't plan on parting with the money." the man in the tux said as he turned the top of his walking stick.
Ben and April turned around as he pulled a sword out of it. He made one quick clean slash toward them. Their bodies fell with a thud as Ben's head rolled to the ground near the table and April's pretty head made a solid thump as it bounced on Gary's belly. Her head rolled off the table and beside Ben's. Both had a look of shock in their wide eyes, but never had time for anything else.
