Ares interlude #4
In search of an Ares dollie....
Dedicated to my Ares dollie and the wonderful friend who found it for me <bg>
Chantal
In Ares’ temple.
"Just when things were starting to get fun, you had to go and spoil my good time." Ares was pacing his temple’s hall. Zapping holes thru the walls. Sending arrows and daggers flying.
"Now I can deal with my goodie too shoes brother and his alternate bad self, I can even understand the immortal dude. The kid? That was a surprise, he is annoying but useful. But I have to draw the line.. I am not being replace by this.. this.. toy…" Ares spun around and threw the arrow he had been twirling around in his hands directly into an empty box sitting on his altar.
"I am not going to be replaced by a doll…not without a fight. Or getting a piece of the merchandising rights. Now I have to stop this a tthe source. It might be fun. Fear always makes a good impression. And experiencing the real thing… flesh and black leather.. might be a big enough incentive. Aphrael, dear, I don’t usually take matters into my own hands but in your case I’m definitely gonna make an exception." Ares kicked the arrow embedded box on the marble floor and laughed. " Ares’ dollie… I’ll show you the real thing darling!" and disappeared.

Aphrael’s place…
Ares appeared in the living room in a flash of blue light. Cuddles and her Harpies siblings screamed.
"Harpies. I hate harpies. Used to love them. You used to be bad news to people. Now look at you. Pathetic goodie too shoes pet creatures. I should put you out of your misery. Ares snickered at them.
All the harpies scattered away from the room except Cuddles, who advanced on the GOW.
"My advice. Give it up. You’ll save a lot of your little friends lives including your own. Don’t make me more angry or your mistress will be in even more troubles than she already is. "Glancing around, Ares noticed the boxes. Piles of boxes.
"Now what have we here.. Looks like dollies.. Hate dollies." Ares raised his hand and was about to zap the boxes to oblivion when Cuddles put herself in Ares’ path.
"You really have a death wish or you are even dumber than the usual harpy. Get out of the way!" Ares was fuming. Cuddles ran to the boxes and started to throw them at the GOW.
"Hey. Enough! You really think this would stop me. Wrong!" Ares caught a box in his right hand. " See, I’m gonna destroy them one by one if I have too." A glowing fire ball appeared in his left hand. Ares started to throw the fire ball towards the box when he stopped in mid motion. "Would you look at that. A Kull doll. Now, you wouldn’t happen to have.. Herkules’ dolls in there too.. or Sov’s dollies.."
Cuddles howled and thought "That GOW was too devious for a Harpy to take alone. She needed reinforcement." Cuddles flew out the window to get some help.
"Isn’t that interesting? I could get rid of the others. Replace them with dollies. Now the idea needs to be develop but I like it." Ares zapped the boxes away. They reappeared in his temple. "Now the lout has been confiscated. I shall capture the criminal" Ares smiled. "Where would she be?" The sound of rushing water caught the GOW’s attention. "Oh water games. I love those." Ares walked towards the sound.

Aphrael’s bathroom
Aphrael had been oblivious of the actions in her living room. She was enjoying the warm water too much. She was tired. So tired. Getting her hands on the dollies had not been a picnic.
Especially that Ares’ dollie. She still had nightmare about the idiot Toy R Us manager she had dealt with. She had found the dollie hidden behind a full shelves of Gaggy dolls. Why she had felt compelled to look there, Aphrael had no clue. It had been like a calling. Aphrael shivered at the thought. Out loud Aphrael berated herself. "Don’t even think of going down that path, Aphr. You might not like where it takes you." Aphrael turned the hot water on more to dispel the shivers.
Aphrael continued out loud her inner discussion. "That idiot only believed what his computer was telling him. Moron. I had the box in my arms. Of course it existed. The GOW back order. Like in your dreams idiot." Aphrael was still royally ticked off.
Ares was rather amused by the monologue. Sitting on the vanity he listened to the amazon’s rant.
"Beside that idiot had put 5 Iolaus’ dolls in the discount bin. Please only a world class moron would do that. 2 dinars a piece. They would have sold at the least 10 times that price. Morons. All managers are morons." Aphrael wetted her hair and started to shampoo. "Now if it had been an amazon manager that Ares dollie would have been first row center along with that rare Kull dollie. Half price bin, he was just an idiot." Aphrael shook her head. "Moron. No sense of business. Don’t they know that the Ares doll is one of the highest and rarest one of the set.."
Ares raised an eyebrow got up and pulled the shower curtain. "Highest and rarest one.. Do tell my dear, I’m all ears… well maybe not all ears…"
******
Aphrael froze. "Oh, my. THE. GOD. OF. WAR. In the bathroom. With me." Aphrael whimpered.
"Hum. Hello Ares. As you can see here, I’m a little underdressed to have a meaningful conversation with you. Let me get the shampoo out, dry off, grab a robe and I’ll tell you all about the doll market." Aphrael finished her tirade hoping it would work.
"Oh luv, I think we can chat while I make sure your hair is shinny and clean." Ares pulled the shower curtain further and stepped inside the shower behind Aphrael. He then took the shower head from the wall.
Aphrael tried to think of an escape. "Your leather with be damaged Ares. Wet black leather shrinks, doesn’t it?"
Ares laughed. "Problem solved luv." In a flash the leather vanished. "Now let me rinse that shampoo out and tell me more about that rarest of dolls…" Ares rinsed Aphrael’s hair, adjusting the water temperature with a flick of an eye.
"Now you need to put conditioner in, right?" Ares asked softly in Aphrael’s right ear. He caught the lobe in his mouth and bit gently. "Now have you lost your voice, little one?"
Aphrael whimpered. She decided to let her body enjoy the moment. "Oh well.. might as well seize the moment.." she answered Ares.
Ares kissed her neck. "Good. I like pragmatists." He turned her around. Kissed her nose. Nibbled on her upper lip. Opened her mouth and started to devour her from the outside in.

Cuddles came back a while later. She hadn’t been able to get any amazons to come and help her save her mistress. Chantal had shooed her out. She was having a heated discussion with her Sovmuse.
Danaan had been busy listening to Herk reading naughty poetry to her.
Hilara had Robert tied up with silk scarves on a four poster bed in the mattress section of Sorbomart. Nannyboo had been enjoying a hot tub game of find the rubber duckie with a frisky Kull. Cuddles had decided to face the wrath of the GOW all by herself.
What she found was her mistress wrapped up in a silk kimono with Ares’ arms around her, sitting in front of the fireplace. "Now see you can get into the inventory of the Toy R Us thru here. And voilą! The list of the stores with Ares dolls in stock. Not that you can trust it. Morons are in charge of the inventories too."
Ares laughed. "I’ll zap them all and replace them with amazons. Now, Amazons will know how to sell my dolls… Ouch! You pinched me.. You pinched the GOW…" Ares pushed the empty plate of chocolate raspberry truffle cheesecake they had shared earlier out of the way.
"You are asking for it little one." Aphrael ginned and pinched again.
"Okay, not only my dolls but my brother’s ones too.."
The end.
