2 2-Freedom Giveth, Freedom Taketh

Later That Night

Somewhere in King County Suburbs

Georgia

"Damn, how do you keep beating me kiddo!" Morgan said to his son Duane as they played a game of chess.

"I know you're letting me win dad, you moved into checkmate in only a few goes" Duane replied with a smile.

"You got me" Morgan replied, throwing his hands up with a smile, only for the barricaded door to creak slightly. "Stay put son, I'll go check!" He commanded as he got up from the floor, slowly sneaking over the door to look through the peephole.

Suddenly without warning, a blade as long as a man pieced through both the door and Morgan like they were nothing, causing the man to throw up blood before the blade was drawn back, leaving his body to slump to the floor lifelessly.

Lanius bashed the door in with a single kick as though it was made from styrofoam before grabbing the screaming Duane by the scruff of his neck, but otherwise not harming him.

"Loot the house" August spoke as he walked in as a group of four scouts rushed in just behind him. Stepping over Morgan's body and over to Lanius. "Don't exactly have handcuffs now do we..." He said while looking around. 

"No my Lord, but we do have collars. They are enchanted to never allow the wearer to disobey or go against their master, that being both you and I in this case" Aurelia spoke as she entered the house, handing August a silver-colored collar inscribed with Latin lettering.

"How costly will one of these be to make?" August asked.

"Depends my Lord, for enchanting can vary, but these take not but a few minutes" Aurelia replied.

"Very well, put it on him, he marches with us" August spoke as Aurelia chanted a single word, separating the collar into two halves before placing it around the sobbing Duane's neck, causing it to disappear into what appeared to be a tattoo around his neck inscribed with the same characters.

"Interesting..." August spoke. Kneeling, he removed his helm to meet face-to-face with the boy. "Now, If you behave, you shall not be harmed, but misbehave, and I cannot guarantee your safety from my friends, my friends don't like disobedience, understand?" August asked as he waited for a moment for the boy to regain enough sense to nod in agreement, making August rub his head with a smile on his face before putting his helmet back on. 

One Hour Later

King County Sherriff's Department

"My Emperor, they have found the weapons you spoke of within the vault" A Scout reported as he knelt before August who by his point had discovered Arion, an immortal Pegasus he bought for one thousand points on the market.

"Very good. Store them and we shall move on to our first prize after we clear out this rabble" August said with a salute from the Scout before he ran off back into the Sherriff's Department, all while watching with fascination at the Legionnaires taking out walkers with refined and skillful efficiency. It wasn't combat for them, it was a chore. 

As he opened the inventory to wait and see what had been collected, August noticed that whenever a walker was killed, he gained a single system point, a nifty feature. 

Afternoon The Next Day

Just Outside Atlanta Georgia

"If your predictions on this outcome will come true, would it not be better to strike while they're separated into two groups?" Lanius asked.

"It will be better when they are disorganized, which the dead will see to" August spoke from atop Arion who turned and began making his way up the forested hill that his forces had been hiding in for a few hours now.

As the hours passed, the two groups reunited at their camp, eventually all settling around the fire as they told stories. At the direction of August, the Arcanus began using wind magic to create whispering-like sounds in specific locations around the woods, luring greater numbers of walkers towards the camp. At the moment of their emergence from the woods, he ordered the attack, with Lanius leading the Legionnaires in a flanking maneuver, catching the group off guard. At that same time, Aurelia cast a needle-like wind blast spell at a specific walker that was about to attack Amy Harrison, popping its head like a grape, then casting another spell to sink her feet into the ground like quicksand, trapping her.

Upon Lanius reaching their flank, Shane turned around just in time to notice them about to swamp them, letting loose a shotgun round of buckshot that both Lanius and his armour ate like it was nothing, allowing the giant of a man to knock the ex-deputy out clean with the pommel of his great sword, leaving an opportunity for the Legionnaires to then surprise and apprehend all the others. Upon the success of both parties, August ordered the walkers be dealt with, which is where the other three Arcanus members Octavia, Valentina and Gaia all cast the same spell Aurelia had, only this time sinking all the walkers within a fifty-meter radius into the ground, only leaving their heads exposed to be killed for points.

After a few minutes of the dust settling and the Legionnaires finishing off both the ground walkers and any stragglers who were out of range of the spell at the time, August slowly rode into camp to overlook the spoils of what he saw as his first great conquest. 

"What the FUCK IS THIS MAN!?" Merl shouted as he struggled, only to then be knocked out by Lanius, setting an example.

"I'll tell you all what this is. Unfortune for you all, that's what. Line them up, not all of them are living tonight" August said as they were all lined up before him. Dismounting Arion, August paced up and down alongside the line in contemplation. 

"Check this one's mid-section for bites" He spoke as he pointed to Jim.

A Legionnaire approached, pulling the man's shirt up to reveal a bite, with the soldier then looking back up to August for directions.

"Kill him," August said with outcry from all the others as the soldier swiftly unsheathed his gladius and relieved the man of his head, his body slumping to the flaw much to everyone's horror. 

"Do not fret, some of you will live, but you may come to wish you didn't!" He said as he then coordinated who got a colour and who died.

Shane, Lori, Andrea, Glenn, Carl, Daryl, Amy, T-Dog, Carol, Jaqui, Sophia, Eliza, Loius, Miranda and Morales. 

"The men will become the laborer's, the woman...well, you'll all find out soon enough. Kill the rest" August ordered as Merle and Dale got the sword, leaving many among the group, especially Daryl to cry out in sorrow. 

"YOU'RE GOING TO FUCKING DIE!!!!" Daryl screamed as the tattooed collar began to glow, causing extreme convulsive pain to rip through his body.

"Well...that's handy," August said with a nod.

"A necessary feature Lord, to ensure obedience" Auralia replied.

"Very good. Equip all those who are left with one. I want two patrols consisting of three Scouts and two Legionnaires each, any walkers that approach are to be eliminated. Only then tents will be set up. The order for bed slave choice until further notice shall go as such. Legates, the Arcanus Sisters if they...do...that, Praetorian Guard, Centurions with their Opito's, and the rest are free game. I want no arguments, no slave deaths, and no children to be touched, or it's flogging, removal of a hand and ration cuts. Am I understood?" August said as he got applause from all his men.

"If any of you assholes so much as lay a finger on any of them I'll...AH!" Shane tried to retort, only to get grounded by the staggering waves of pain unleashed from his collar. 

"I will take him if you allow it, Lord, I like fighters..." Aurelia spoke.

The permitter was set and the Fabri with the assistance of the remaining Legionnaires got to work setting up tents while August claimed the RV, along with Andrea and Amy. 

Two Praetorians took the girls into the RV, six were stationed outside, and two others were sent to guard the children. August entered the RV as he dismissed his guards. Taking a seat on a small mechanics roller stool and removing his helmet, he took a long swig from a bottle of water, offering it to the girls, only for Andrea to slap it out of his hand, giving her a small shock that set her in line.

"Water is precocious nowadays, can't go wasting it my dear" August said as he picked up the bottle that still had a small amount before placing it on a table at his side. "Now, I don't believe I need to give the speech as to what will happen, you know, the whole easy way hard way cliche? So, how will this go?" August asked as he pulled up a system panel to his inventory, removing his armor similar to how a game character would, leaving him in only finely made pants and a long sleeve.

"Please, If you don't hurt her, I will do whatever you want..." Andrea begged, knowing threats and resistance would only result in prolonged self-torture.

"Hmmm, perhaps, though she is a far...greater prize you have to admit" He replied as he admired Amy's slim figure that had all the curves in the right places.

"Please..." Andrea begged with tears in her eyes as August stared into hers.

"Very well. She will not be used by any of my men, and not by me...tonight at least. Come now Andrea, you have a deal to uphold" August replied as he got up from his chair, with Andrea following behind, but not of her free will, she tried all she could to stop, but the collar commanded her body, leaving her mind as merely a passenger. 

Both stepping into the small bedroom, August closed the doors before removing his clothes as Andrea followed, once more breaking down into tears.

"You know, for such a 'strong independent woman' you're easily brought to tears" August spoke as she finished undressing, leaving him to admire the goods.

"On your knees" He spoke as she slummed down, only to be met with his new cock. Six inches soft, eight hard. "No biting. Suck it down like it's your last meal on Earth, who knows, it maybe will be. Doesn't need to be anything special, just wet enough for the second act" August spoke as Andrea was forced to get to work.

She expertly used her tongue for circle work on his tip, resulting in a tingle shooting to both his toes and up his spine. Before getting into the nitty gritty, she took his balls into his mouth, causing her cheeks to bulge like a chipmunk as she stroked the shaft. She had clearly done this before. Placing her hands onto his thighs, she began throating his cock like it truly was her last meal on earth, eventually leading her to reach his base after half an hour of bliss. Grabbing the back of her head with one and hand a fist-full of hair with the other, he unloaded into her throat, resulting in her reeling from that attempt to breathe. After almost half a minute of pumping a steady stream directly into her stomach, he released her, but not before grabbing her face and holding her mouth shut, refusing to allow her to regurgitate it. 

"Now now, it's not polite to throw up someone's gift. Keep it down sweetheart!" he chuckled as her stomach churned, but eventually settled, leaving her with a warm treat she still tased on her tongue.

"That's only the beginning. Up you come!" He ordered and pointed at the bed which she slowly climbed onto, unable to find the will to fight back, the top half of her body slumped down, leaving her head down ass up. 

"I permit you to scream, cry...beg. You're going to be doing a lot of that" He said as he slid into her, only reaching 1/3 the way from the surprising grip she still held, even after all those collage antics girls tend to always get up to.

Gripping the bedsheets, Andrea screamed as August began quickly thrusting, eventually stretching her out enough to hilt inside of her after many long minutes of work, leaving her a sobbing mess, even more so for Amy as she slumped to the floor on the other side of the RV. Eventually finishing in her once more, he pulled out, only to then position his cock against her hole instead, quickly causing her to plead to him, only for it to prove useless as he pushed in any way, stretching her out and making her scream the worst she had yet. Eventually finishing for the final time after another twenty minutes of ploughing, August got up from the bed and made his way his way through to the other side of the RV. Sitting down and finishing the remains of the water from earlier, he looked over at Amy who sat there with a shell-shocked look on her pretty little face.

"Come dear, clean me up" August spoke as Amy's body acted. Grabbing a clean rag from a shelf nearby, she made her way over and knelt before him, only for him to grab her by the wrist. "Nuh uh uh, your tongue sweetheart" He spoke, causing Andrea to jolt her head back in shock from his words.

"N-NO, YOU PROMISED!!" Andrea screamed.

"I said will not USE her, I never said anything about her assisting me," August said with a smug look on his face as he wrapped his hands around the back of his head as the little beauty polished his staff.

"Well, the Emperor seems to be enjoying his choice of the plunder" Titus chuckled as he sipped his water skin, all while getting serviced by the sobbing Carol under the table. 

"I would go as far as to say Lady Auralia is enjoying hers more" Lucius replied as he looked over at her tent where she was currently riding the now chained-up Shane.
