Sheeva's Sluts

Sheeva's Sluts - The Announcement

Sheeva sat upon her throne, a small silver box laying on one of the armrests. The fires in her throne room had been stoked high enough that the dark night outside could not intrude. Her elite guards lined the wall and her most trusted advisors stood behind her.



Her modest harem stood before her in a straight line. They were all dressed, or as dressed as they ever were, and most of them seemed to be wondering what was going on.



Well, they wouldn't have to wonder for much longer.



"I want you all to know," Sheeva began, "that I most pleased with your service to me."



Mileena giggled quietly, Kitana's eyes shone and Sonya looked silently proud. Only Jade and Skarlet looked unaffected. Skarlet because she didn't have Sheeva's seed in her system; Jade, most likely, because she didn't care that much about her opinion.



"However, there is one duty you have failed to perform for your Empress, for me," Sheeva continued smoothly. "I do not blame you for this. Until recently, it had been impossible for any of you to perform.



Sonya raised a quizzical eyebrow while Sheeva took the small silver box in her lower left hand, opened it with her lower right and took something out of it with her upper right. It was a round, green pill.



"This," Sheeva announced, "is the product of many months of research by the University of Malborn."



"Melbourne," Sonya muttered with vague annoyance. She was ignored.



"This tiny little pill was created through a combination of Outworld magic and alchemy and Earthrealm science. Until now it was impossible for Shokan to breed with humans. No more."



All of the girls, save for Skarlet, gasped. Mileena burst out in hysterical laughter.



"Yes!" Mileena cried happily. "Tarkatan, Edenian, Shokan. All that has to happen is for my little baby to get knocked up by a human and I'll have grandmothered the greatest warrior to possibly exist."



"Who said she's going to impregnate you," Sonya snapped with remarkable venom. "Who could possibly want to have a child with you?"



Mileena ran her hands down her body, swaying seductively. "Oh, I know plenty of girls who simply love having this."



"That is no reason t-"



"Quiet," Sheeva interrupted. "You are my harem. You are all mine. You will all bear my children. As is your duty."



Mileena laughed triumphantly and it seemed Kitana blushed behind her mask.



"Now then," Sheeva continued. "No, Mileena, you will not carry a hybrid of Shokan, Edenian and Tarkatan blood. Your daughter will be pure Shokan. All your daughters will be Shokan. It will not do for the Shokan Empress to have heirs of mixed blood. I have fought too hard to free my people from Shao Kahn to deliver them unto the rule of another non-Shokan within a generation."



"Aw, too bad," Mileena purred.



"Heirs?" Kitana asked. "Did I hear you right. Are we...?"



"Yes," Sheeva said. "I have no Shokan mate, nor do intend to take one. That means you will become mother of my heir. And, to avoid a war of succession after my demise, only one will be the mother of my heir."



"And which one of us will that be?" Jade asked.



"That is up to you," Sheeva replied. "The five of you will compete against one another in a tournament. The victor will become the mother of my heir. More than that, she will become Consort by my side and Mistress of the Harem."



"Why should we compete?" Jade asked.



"Jade!" Kitana hissed. "You speak out of turn."



"I will impregnate you whether you decide to compete or not," Sheeva said. "And if the rise of your station does not interest you, then you will be able to take pride in the fact that you are the best."



"If I may, my Empress, it does not seem altogether fair," Kitana said hesitantly. "Sonya has been training constantly as the Captain of your Guard. However, I fear I and the others... are a bit out of practice."



"You will not fight one another in the traditional sense," Sheeva said. "You will compete not as warriors, but as the women of my harem. The contest will be sexual in nature."



"That's not fair. Your little doll won't stand a chance," Mileena said, nodding towards the dull-eyed Skarlet.



"Or too much of one," Sonya added under her breath.



"Don't worry," Sheeva said. "I will make sure she'll be in an appropriate state of mind when it is her turn to compete. In any event, the tournament has been declared. You will have quite some time to prepare. I suggest you use that time. And now, you may leave."



Sonya, Kitana, Jade, Mileena and Skarlet bowed as one, turned and left the throne room. Once they had gone, one of Sheeva's advisors walked up to her.



"Is this wise, Empress?" he asked, in the manner of one who think it isn't wise but doesn't want to say so outright.



"It is deserved," Sheeva replied. "They serve me loyally. They should have a chance to elevate themselves."



"But what if it is the mongrel? Or worse, the golem?"



"Then Mileena or Skarlet will sit beside me as Consort of the Empress," Sheeva snapped. "The position is largely symbolic in any case."



"Of course, Empress," the advisor said. "Forgive me."



Sheeva dismissed him and the others. When they had all gone and she remained alone on her throne, she put the little green pill back into the small silver box next to the diamond-shaped red one the University of Malborn had also provided her. She hadn't told anyone anything about the red one and she wasn't going to.



It would quite spoil the surprise, after all.
