The Making of Valley Girl
Part I
Lady Valiant stood on the parapet of the building across the way. Down below her, behind closed doors, a chop shop was in operation and the two goons, standing out front, those two were guarding the operation.
It had been fortuitous that she’d seen someone snatch the silver Corolla or that she’d been able to follow it here. She assumed the men had guns but really, that wasn’t an issue for her. What was an issue was making sure she protected any innocent bystanders who might be around.
It was funny, the superheroine thought. All the men had to do was to look up. In her white spandex suit, with her white cape and her white boots, with her blond hair that was almost as white as her suit, she would have made quite a silouette against the night sky, but for the men on the ground, they thought the threat from their operations was going to come from the street and so they never bothered to look up.
It was time to move. Lady Valiant stepped off the roof and she felt the rush of air as she dropped to the ground.
She landed behind the one man. “Oh fuck,” snarled his compatriot but before that man even had a chance to react, Lady Valiant had disabled the man with a hard karate chop.
Already, the other man was reaching inside his jacket, and already, Lady Valiant knew he was going to be too late. Moving with incredible speed, her hand grabbed his wrist even before the man could get his hand out of his jacket.
“Let me go,” the man whimpered.
Pathetic, Lady Valiant thought as she slapped the man around before finally knocking him out. It was easy for a criminal to be tough when they had the upper hand, but when the tables were turned, when someone else was stronger than him, suddenly the criminal became such a big baby.
Lady Valiant quickly stripped the men of their weapons and then tied them up. She’d be back for them later after she’d taken care of the operations inside.
Easy, she thought.
The superheroine opened the door and she stepped inside the garage. There was the silver Corolla and alongside it were a couple of other cars that she hadn’t seen being brought in. This wasn’t a small time operation after all and for Lady Valiant, that was so much the better.
She looked around the garage and she could see men breaking down the cars. There were more of them than she had thought there’d be but these men were just the workers. It took money to run an operation like this and it was the maney that she really wanted. What she wanted was the boss.
And there he was, stepping out of an office at the back of the shop. He was dressed in a business suit that looked totally out of place in the confines of an auto-body shop. His name was Alfonso Maldonado and he was one of the top lieutenants in the Reynoso Cartel. This was going to be a big catch indeed.
The amazing thing was that he was the first one who’d seen her. The little minions, they were too busy carrying out their little jobs, so it had been Alfonso who had seen her first but even more amazing than that was what happened next. The man approached her with open arms, with his lieutenants following in their boss’s wake.
“Lady Valiant,” the crime boss bellowed. “How nice to make your acquaintance. I’ve heard so many good things about you.”
Something was wrong, Lady Valiant thought. There was no way this man should be as nonchalant as he was.
His minions looked up. That wasn’t a problem but why was Maldonado so completely unconcerned?
“I suppose you’re going to have to take me in,” the crime boss said in a tone of voice that was still devoid of concern. Something was definitely wrong.
But now Maldonado was walking towards her with his hands outstretched. “I suppose this means that now you’re going to have to arrest me. Would you like to apply the cuffs now.”
Something was wrong. Something was definitely wrong.
And that’s when Lady Valiant saw it. A gun? He had to be kidding. He was going to shoot her with a gun. He had to know that that wasn’t going to work.
The man leveled the gun at her and Lady Valiant stood her ground. Go ahead, she thought. Let him fire his little gun. She was going to enjoy this.
The man fired ... and Lady Valiant fell to her knees.
It wasn’t just a gun. Lady Valiant was finally figuring that out or at least it wasn’t a gun that fired bullets. What this gun fired was a bolt of energy.
And the bolt just kept on coming. Lady Valiant couldn’t move as the beam continued to wash over her. It created an itching feeling over her skin, an itching that grew more and more intense the longer the beam was upon her.
As abruptly as the beam had started, it was taken away.
Lady Valiant looked up. “Wh-what did you—”
Once more, the beam was upon her and once more, Lady Valiant writhed under its affects. It wasn’t exactly painful, she tried to tell herself. Not yet, it wasn’t.
Once more, the beam stopped. “You supers, you’re always so arrogant,” the crime boss said. “You keep running around and acting like you can’t be hurt, but that’s not the truth. You can be hurt. A person just has to know how to do it.”
Once again, the beam was used on her and now it wasn’t just annoying. Now it was actually painful and for someone who’d never felt pain before, the feel of that was even more intense. How could the humans stand this, she asked herself. How could they stand this thing called pain?
And again, the beam stopped although Lady Valiant knew that that might only be a temporary reprieve. She didn’t want the beam again and she found herself thinking that she’d do whatever it took to avoid it.
“You supers,” the man chastised her. “Did you think we would just sit back and do nothing while you took us down. Is that what you thought?”
The beam zapped her for just a moment but as quickly as it had come, it was gone.
“Did you think we wouldn’t learn everything there was to learn about you? Everyone can be hurt. Even you supers. Did you think we wouldn’t find out how to hurt you?”
Lady Valiant wanted to say something. A pithy comeback maybe. Maybe just a sharp retort. Something, but she couldn’t. The best she could manage was a malevolent glare.
“You’re not so tough now, are you?”
“I ... I ... no.”
“No what?”
The superheroine shook her head but before she could say anything, the crime boss hit her with the beam again.
“No, don’t,” the woman whimpered. “No more, please.”
“Please,” the man scoffed. “I don’t think I’ve heard one of you supers say that word before but I think I like it. I like hearing you supers beg, but I think you were about to tell me something. I think you were about to tell me how you weren’t so tough anymore. Is that what you were going to tell me?”
Lady Valiant shook her head.
“No?” The man zapped her with the beam again and then he turned it off. “Was that what you were going to say?”
“I ... I, no.”
“No?” Once more the beam zapped her. Once more it was taken away. “I can keep this up all day. How about now? What were you going to say?”
Lady Valiant hung her head but she just couldn’t bear it. She couldn’t bear being hit with the beam again.
“Well,” the man demanded.
“I ... I’m ... I’m not so tough anymore.”
The man grinned. “You sound so hot when you say that. Did you know that?”
Lady Valiant shook her head.
“Say it again.”
“I’m ... I’m not so tough anymore.”
“Oh yeah. Definitely hot, but would you do something for me?”
The superheroine glared at the gun in the man’s hand. It was that gun that was holding her here. “What?”
“You don’t have to sound so grumpy about it.” The man waved the gun at her. “You need to learn to put a smile on your face. Now ask me again.”
“Ask you what?” the superheroine grumped.
“I said there was a favor I wanted from you and you asked me what. This time, you’re going to do it again, but this time, I want you to do it with a smile on your face. Now once again, from the top. There’s something I want you to do for me.”
Lady Valiant’s lip was quivering but she didn’t speak.
“There’s something I want you to do for me,” the man said again, “and you say ...”
Lady Valiant tried holding out but she couldn’t. “What,” she said finally.
“Remember to say it with a smile.”
Lady Valiant was nodding. It was clear she didn’t want to do it. She wiped a tear away. “What?”
“Oh my dear. We’re definitely going to have to work on that, but no matter. We have time.”
“What do you mean?”
“The boys and me, we’d like to see what you look like without your cape. It does rather hide your figure, you know.”
“I won’t do it,” the superheroine said haughtily.
“Oh you won’t, will you,” the crime boss said as he zapped her again and again with his weapon. “Well, me and the boys think you will, and if you won’t, we’re just going to have to keep on working to convince you.”
Lady Valiant had never known fear before and to a person who’d never known fear, fear can be a fearsome thing.
Lady Valiant cringed and writhed with every blast of the gun. “All right,” she said finally. “All right.”
Again, the man shot her with the gun. “All right what?”
“All right. I’ll take off my cape,” the super heroine whimpered.
“And the boots, too.”
“What?! But you said—”
“Yeah, well that was before, but now that you’ve made us wait, I think me and the boys want more.”
If there was any doubt what the boys wanted, their muttered assents pretty much put that to rest.
“Of course, if you want me to zap you again ...”
“No!”
“No what?”
“No, don’t. I’ll ... I’ll take them off.”
“You better get to it then. The boys aren’t patient men.”
The woman was whimpering just a little as her hands undid the clasp that held her cape in place. “I’m going to get you for this,” she said as she let her cape fall away.
“I hardly think that’s likely,” the man said, “but I guess you’re welcome to try, but until then, how about you take off those boots for us.”
For a moment, it looked as if she was going to object until she saw the man’s finger tighten on the trigger. “Fine,” she said and with that, she unzipped her boots and took them off.
“Damn would you look at you. You’re almost naked, girl.”
“Shut up.”
“You know what?”
“What?”
“I think the boys would like you to unzip that suit. Take those tits out and show them what a superhero’s tits looks like.”
“I wo—”
Lady Valiant’s words dissolved in a blaze of shrieks as the gun once more wracked her body in energy. “Make it stop,” she pleaded. “Make it stop. Come on. Please. Make it stop.”
But it didn’t stop. The gun kept wracking her body in energy and the superheroine kept writhing on the floor.
“Make it stop. Make it stop, ple-e-e-e-ease.”
As abruptly as it had begun, the beam stopped, leaving the blond superhero panting on the floor.
“That’s enough of that,” the crime boss said. “From now on, you do what you’re told. Is that understood?”
In spite of herself, Lady Valiant nodded.
“Now where were we. Aw yes. Those tits. I want you to run that zipper down the front of that cute, little outfit of yours. Take it down as far as it will go and then I want you to take your tits out and show them to the boys.”
She had to do it, the superheroine told herself. It wasn’t like she had a choice. She just had to do it, so she gritted her teeth and she pulled the zipper down the front of her suit.
“Take your tits out,” the man told her.
Again, she told herself she didn’t really have a choice so she slipped her tits out of her suit.
“Would you look at that? Lady Valiant here’s got one fucking big set of knockers. Now who would have imagined that? Do the other superheroes like playing with your tits?”
Just you wait, the superheroine promised herself. Your day will come soon enough.
“Take your suit all the way off.”
“No wait—”
“Are you saying no to me?”
Was she? No, she wasn’t, Lady Valiant realized. She hated to admit it but she wasn’t saying no to him. She shook her head. She wasn’t saying no.
The man grinned as he sensed he’d won. “The boys want to see your body, Lady Value-Cunt, so I’m not going to tell you again. Take your suit all the way off.”
Oh geez. He was so going to get it, the superheroine promised herself. It might not have been professional, but when she finally figured out how to get past his ray gun, he was so going to pay big time for everything he was making her do, but for now, she did the only thing she could do. She slid her suit all the way off.
“Would you look at that? Who would have guessed that Lady Value-Cunt had such a pretty, little pussy. Not many, I’ll bet, because I’ll bet she doesn’t show it around all that much.”
Lady Valiant just glared at the man.
“But boys, I think that’s about to change. Do you know what this is?”
He had to be kidding, Lady Valiant told herself. The man was holding up a syringe. It was his first mistake and as much as he seemed to know about her, he should have known it. Her body was not invulnerable to drugs but administering them was another matter. “It’s not going to work,” she scoffed as she finally sensed the tables starting to turn.
“Maybe not, but do you know what it is?”
“Some sort of drug, I would guess.”
“Well yes. There is a drug involved but there’s something else as well.”
Something else. WHat the hell was the man talking about? But hey, it didn’t really matter. “It’s not going to work.”
“What’s not going to work?”
“Whatever you’ve got planned. It’s not going to work.”
The man just grinned. “Do you think your body is impervious to drugs?”
The superheroine didn’t answer.
“Well, I suppose we’ll just have to see then.” The man handed the syringe to an assistant. “Let’s see that arm of yours, and let’s not try any tricks. I’ve still got this,” the man said as he gave his gun a little wave, “and it’s still pointed right at you.”
Lady Valiant couldn’t help but shudder. She didn’t want to feel the effects of that gun again so she offered up her arm.
She was amused to watch the man strap her arm down and then she was even more amused to watch him swab her arm with alcohol. This was going to be fun to watch.
And then there was the needle and the man was pressing it up against her arm. He gave it a push and ...
And Lady Valiant couldn’t help but gape because the needle actually went in.
What the fuck? How had that happened. The needle actually went in.
“I’ll bet you didn’t think the needle was going to go in, did you?”
Lady Valiant was struggling now. She should have been able to pull her arm free from the restraints that held her down. She should have been able to do that easily. She should have been able to rip that needle from her arm ... but she couldn’t.
“I’ll bet you’re wondering how that happened,” the crime boss said.
The crimefighter’s eyes were locked on the syringe. Whatever was in there was almost all the way inside her now.
“I’ll bet you’re wondering how that needle went in,” the crime boss said again.
The syringe was empty and it was being pulled from her arm and it was only then that Lady Valiant looked up at the crime boss. “What happened?” she asked.
“My little ray gun works on a physical level. It negates nearly all of the physical advantages that you would normally have. It weakens you. It makes you susceptible to pain and among other things, it means that you aren’t impervious to needles.
“What did you do to me?”
The crime boss smiled but it was a smug smile. “You’ll see,” he told her. “You’ll find out soon enough.”
