A Cave Story fanfic written by bm54321

"Ah! Oh! Ki... King... oh, oh! OH!"
Sue cried out as she felt King thrust into her again and again, his penis hard against her insides. She held tightly onto the edge of the bed in front of her as she lustfully pushed her butt backwards, wanting to feel even more of that stiff length penetrate her. She was kneeling on the carpet, bent over the bed with her arms outstretched. King was behind her, fucking her well and hard, almost like an animal would do it. Sue felt wicked at the thought. She was getting fucked by an animal! Well, not exactly, she thought. The mimiga were quite human apart from their fur and long ears. And Sue was technically a mimiga herself now. It wasn't so bad then, was it?

She ignored her doubts, instead focusing entirely on the intense pleasure. She squealed and moaned loudly, something that surprised King. She had been very vocal about her distaste for him when they first met. She had even tried to kick him several times when he went too close. They had had to restrain her while Toroko talked to her and calmed her down. Toroko had been Sue's only friend at first, and Sue had sat inside Toroko's house for most of her stay. But here she was in King's own house, bent over just for him and eager to get fucked.
"Perhaps she isn't so bad after all," he thought. Then, out loud, he said: "You like it, Sue?" He gave her a few more thrusts, slowing down a bit to let her speak.
"Y... yes! I... I like i-it! Oh!"
"You want more? More of this?' He thrust harder to punctuate his point.
"Ah! Yes! I want it!"
"You don't hate mimigas anymore, then? You won't be so foulmouthed around us?"
"No... Oh! I... I won't."
"You gotta promise, Sue," King teased. "Promise to be friendly."
"I... I promise."
Satisfied, King went faster again. He penetrated her fully, sliding his cock in and out of her wet pussy with long, soft strokes. He panted heavily. It felt so good! But Sue apparently felt even better, for she was still begging for more. He didn't know if he could even do any better! But Sue was satisfied. She felt her orgasm approaching. She closed her eyes and took in every sensation. The soft motion in her pussy, the fur against her ass, King's panting and the wet slopping sound of sex.

It was too much for her. With a final, load moan, she came. King felt her initial shudder, felt her juices dripping out and soaking his penis even more. He bent over and hugged her from behind. Sue felt his weight and relaxed under it as she rode her orgasm all the way through.
How can anything feel this good? she thought. ...And with an animal, no less, she hastily added. She couldn't help but wonder what the others would say. Toroko, once she got to know Sue had fucked the village leader; the person she had so verbally abused? Jack, King's second-in-command? Kazuma, her own brother?

King had thoughts of his own. After the Doctor's attack, there weren't many mimiga left in the village, and certainly few female ones. Chaco lived far away, and Toroko was like a little sister to him. But Sue... Even though she was really a human, he couldn't help but admit that her mimiga form was deliciously hot. Her little face with the big blue eyes and a cute little scar across the nose, her shining white fur, her well-rounded hips and merry walk... King wondered if her human form were as attractive.
Even if it isn't, I won't forsake her, he decided. He sincerely liked Sue, even with her temper. And lest he forgot: She was a damn good fuck.
"Oh, Sue," he grunted. He could feel his own building orgasm. "I... oh!"
King quickly pulled out, not wanting to get Sue pregnant; not yet at least. He grabbed her buttocks with his left hand while he furiously stroked his dick with the right. A few seconds later, her ass received several spurts of his white, sticky seed. Sue moaned softly as it hit her. She loved the feeling of it sticking to her fur. It reminded her that she wasn't human herself, that there was nothing wrong with their relationship. King rested his dick between her cheeks, just rubbing it slowly up and down. He then laid himself over her again, wanting to be as close as possible. Sue gladly welcomed him without a word. They were both silent know, just breathing softly and relishing in their afterglow.

After a few minutes, Sue broke the silence.
"King?"
"Hmm?"
"Thank you."
He smiled. "You're welcome."
They went silent again. Not long after, Sue spoke again: "King?"
"Yeah?"
"What now?"
"What do you mean?"
"I mean... what will the others think? Toroko... Jack... my family?"
King thought about it for a little while. He then spoke slowly, reluctantly. "I don't know. We'll just have to see, won't we? Don't worry, I'm the village leader. I do what I want. They can't complain. And if they do, I will be there for you."
Sue smiled contently. King had said all she needed to hear. Her fear of discovery was gone. So what if she was human and he was a mimiga? They still loved each other.
And that's all that should matter, she thought.

***

Sue made a motion to move, and King rose to his feet to give her some room. While he got dressed, she rolled over and sat up at the edge of the bed. He could see that she smiled affectionately as she looked at him through tired eyes.
"I'm glad you're here, King. Ever since I came to this island, I've felt like an outsider. That's why I've been so on edge around you. You weren't human, and the only mimiga I had seen before went crazy and tried to kill us. After I fled from the Doctor, I had no one to talk to. I didn't know anybody here, and none of the mimiga trusted me. Some thought I was a spy."
King winced. He had been one of the ones to doubt her most, and she knew that very well. "At least Toroko was a bit more trusting," he said. "I see now that I should have been more open myself."
Sue didn't answer at first. She was thinking.
"King... I miss Toroko."
King looked down, and Sue was certain she saw a glimpse of a pained expression on his face.
"I miss her too, Sue. I can only hope that robot kid will manage to get her back."
"I'm sorry, King. It's my fault. I should have been--"
"No, stop. Don't think like that. It's not your fault that those villains mistook her for you."
Sue frowned. "You didn't say that when you and Jack locked me in that cage."
King winced again.
"Look, I said I was sorry, all right?"
"Were you really going to do it?"
"Do what?"
"Give me to the Doctor?"
"Er... Yes. We were," King admitted. "We were. We hoped we could get Toroko back that way. But then that robot went after her, and I realized it wasn't your fault."
"Didn't stop you from punishing me for it."
King made a sour face as he remembered. A day before, he had decided that the best way to make Sue admit her "guilt" would be to teach her a lesson in humility. So he had made Jack hold her arms while he beat her ass and screamed at her. He had told her she was a bad friend to Toroko; called her a coward and a traitor. She had cried so much then. He felt sick. Why had he done such a thing to her?
"Sue, I'm sorry, I..."
"I know," she answered. "You were worked up over Toroko being kidnapped. I understand, and I've already forgiven you. Otherwise, I wouldn't have... you know..."
Sue blushed. She rubbed her ass, still sticky from his seed. She felt good inside. She couldn't forget yesterday's pain, she had even cried herself to sleep that night; but she had decided to ignore everything bad that had happened between them.

King had surprised her in the morning. He had knocked on her door rather early and asked if he could come in. Sue had spat at him then, telling him to fuck off, to go hurt someone else. But he had begged for her to listen, and the pained sincerity in his voice had made her unlock the door after all. He had stood there on the doorstep then, looking almost more miserable than her, apologizing for everything he had done to her and begging her to forgive him. He had realized, he said, that Sue wasn't to blame, and he felt confident now that Toroko would come back to them sooner or later. And after that...
"I understand the pain you must feel now..." he began. Sue just sneered and shouted angrily at him.
"Oh yeah, like you were the one who was kidnapped along with your family and friends, transformed by a witch, fled across the entire island full of things wanting to hurt you, rejected by everyone once you got somewhere you thought would be safe, had your only friend kidnapped as well and then being screamed at and punished for something you didn't even have a hand in doing!"
Her voice broke and tears welled up in her eyes.
"I just want to be left alone, King. Go away."
"Sue..."
"Go away!"
"Listen, I... I want to make it up to you, somehow. I don't know how, but I will. I promise. Please. I feel so terrible."
"You should."
"Well, I do. If you want to be left alone now, that's fine, though. I'll come back later, after you've got time to think."
"No, it... it's fine," Sue said in a shaky voice. "You can stay. Come in."
Sue stepped back from the door and looked away. King hesitated for a moment, but then stepped into the house. He could see Sue wiping the tears from her eyes as he walked into the small living room. He deliberately sat down on a wooden chair while he let Sue take the only stuffed chair in the room. He reminded himself that she was most likely still sore from yesterday's spanking and did not want to make her anymore uncomfortable than she already was.

He looked over at her. Sue looked back with a blank expression. She didn't know what to say, so she just stayed silent and let King take the initiative to speak.
"So... how are you?" he asked. He scolded himself in his thoughts. What a stupid thing to say!
"You should know," she replied. 'You said you know how I feel.' He looked down, ashamed.
"You said I didn't," he said meekly.
Sue almost took pity on him then. She realized that he had been through a lot as well. If she were in his place, maybe she would have acted the same? She weren't exactly an easy guest. And yet, her sore butt reminded her of the cruelty he had subjected her to. And that Jack... he didn't even try to stop King when he went to hurt her. He had even held her in place, shutting his eyes, not wanting to look at her when she cried, to see what sort of thing he was doing. What a coward! She felt angry again. Angry at King, angry at Jack, angry at the Doctor. But she calmed herself.
He wanted to apologize, she thought, and he regrets hurting me. Should I dismiss that as nothing? Make him think of me as unforgiving?
Sue felt conflicted. And just then, just as her anger had so suddenly come over her, the loneliness and despair came flooding back as well. She looked at King, unable to speak a word, and he watched as a sad look drew over her face again. Then she moved over and hugged him, tightly. He was at a loss of words as well, and so he just sat there and embraced her while she sobbed gently into his shoulder. They sat like that for a long time, until Sue stopped crying, yet there were no words between them. Nothing had to be said. After hearing his side of the tale and letting her emotions out, Sue felt safe with King.

A while later, Sue finally broke the silence.
"I... I think I understand you now, King," she said. "I understand that I'm not the only one who have lost someone. I'm sorry."
"Sorry? Sorry for what, Sue? I'm the one who treated you unfairly. I'm the one who needs to apologize."
"But King... even though you didn't trust me, I kept badmouthing everyone instead of trying to fit in. I can't have been an easy guest."
"You weren't. But still, as village leader, I should have kept myself in check, I--"
"Shhh... You've already apologized to me, King. It's OK. I forgive you."
She smiled weakly, then gave him another hug. He relaxed then, feeling the tension of the last few days leave him. She wasn't mad at him any more, and she trusted him now. It made him happy to have made a friend instead of an enemy of her. Sue stood up, and King was quick to follow.
"Sue, even if you've forgiven me... I still feel bad about what I did. I can't undo those actions, but I can try to do some good things as well. Would you... would you like to eat dinner at my place? Eating alone here in this little shack isn't exactly grand, is it?"
She looked him in the eyes and smiled, more heartfelt this time.
"Yes, thank you King, I would like that very much."

***

King had personally cooked up a nice meal while Sue relaxed on a stuffed couch in his living room. He took extra care to make it as good as possible, unlike when he cooked for himself. He wanted Sue to have the best meal he could offer. She deserved that. They ate mostly in silence, with Sue only speaking to compliment the wonderful dinner. King stole a look at her now and then. He barely recognized her. For a week straight, she had been swinging between fury and depression, but now she seemed almost happy. It took him a while to realize it was  because of him. She had made a friend in King, and now she clung to him. He had grown fond of her as well. After eating, they sat down on the couch, arms around each other, talking about their lives. Sue spoke of her home at the surface, while King told her stories from the island and the caves. Eventually they ran out of things to talk about and just sat there in silence again, enjoying each others company. Sue sighed contently. King glanced out the window and saw that it had grown dark. Even deep in the caves where their village lay, a bit of sunlight still managed to reach them somehow. Soon even that would be gone, and night would come.
"Look," he said. "It's almost night."
Sue had felt something strange then. Not just a friendship or mutual trust, but a deep connection to this furry creature beside her. She didn't want the evening to end, she just wanted to stay with King, embrace him and feel safe from everything. King felt her grip tighten around him, and her snuggling closer. He stroked her head and let his fingers slide through her soft fur.
"I don't want to go back to Toroko's place, King," she whispered. "Can I stay here? With you?"
King silently rejoiced. He didn't want Sue to leave either.
"Of course, Sue. Stay as long as you'd like."
Sue smiled.
"Thank you."

***

King stepped towards the door and grabbed his sword from its resting place besides it. He turned around; his chest heavy, his face in a worn expression. He hadn't told her his plans for the day yet, and he absolutely didn't want to. Sue had lost her family, her friends... and now the one she had only had for a day was going to leave, possibly never return. And yet... King felt he had to do it.
If I follow the robot, he thought, I'll find the Doctor. And then... I'll find Toroko.
"Where are you going?" asked Sue. She was still in bed, but she could see him standing there. He swallowed. When he didn't answer, Sue looked closer with a confused expression. "Is that a sword? King, what are you..."
"Sand Zone," he said. Her mouth froze, a terrified expression appearing in her eyes.
"Wha... what?"
"I'm going to the Sand Zone, Sue. The Doctor must be stopped if we are to get Toroko and our friends back. I'm not going to sit back and hope that one robot can do it alone. I may not be as able to fight as a gun-slinging robot, but if I can help him in any way, I will."
"But King! We sent the robot because we knew none of us would survive the trip!"
"Even if that's the case, you know how well he has handled everything so far. I'm confident that once he is done, the path will be clear for me to follow."
Sue had gotten out of bed now, and rushed over to him. She grabbed him by the arm, twisting him away from the door before holding him tight.
"No, King, please, don't do it! I don't want to lose you too!"
"Sue..."
"Please... don't!"
She hugged him tighter and cried softly. King had to blink a tear away from his eye as well as he hugged Sue back, but he still pushed her away after about a minute. He looked into her eyes.
"Sue, please listen: I don't want to lose you either. But if the Doctor isn't stopped soon, then we'll lose Toroko and everyone else. I can't let that happen, Sue. How could I not risk my life to save them?"
She swallowed, tears still flowing. "I... I understand, King, but please... please..."
He slipped out of the embrace and looked sadly at her. She made no move to stop him when he opened the door. He could barely keep himself calm when he stepped outside and looked at her.
"I'm sorry Sue," he said quietly, "but this... is something I just have to do. For all of us."
She nodded. "Promise me you'll come back to me, King."
"I promise."

She smiled weakly, and he smiled back at her before slinging the sword over his shoulder and turning away. It was with heavy steps that he left his house and walked down the hills to Toroko's place. It had once been her brother Arthur's, but the Doctor had killed him. Arthur had been a hero to the mimiga, bravely fighting off the monsters that came to attack them. No one knew for certain if it really was the Doctor in person who murdered him, but King didn't care. To him, the Doctor was responsible for it, and he would pay. And if he had hurt Toroko... King's grip tightened, and he swung his sword in the air. Yes... that Doctor would pay for what he had done. King almost hoped the robot wouldn't have had time to finish him off before he got there. He wanted to be the one to deliver justice upon that madman.
	
He entered the empty house, and passed by the small living room where he had been sitting with Sue the day before. The house was really quite big, since it also housed the village's most high-tech equipment: A teleporter, which was used to send people from place to place inside the island's giant cave system. He looked around to see if anyone else was present, but found no one. Kazuma, Sue's brother, as well as professor Booster from the research team had both been rescued by the robot kid on Sue's instruction; but Sue had still wanted to sleep alone after what happened while he was gone. It was during that time King had fetched Jack, and... No. He didn't want to think about that anymore. He couldn't undo what he had done then, but now he would try to make up for it.
	
A lone computer stood in the middle of the room. King walked over and looked over the display. A list of locations filled the screen. Sand Zone was already selected. King pressed the teleporter button and stepped wordlessly onto the platform, sword still in hand. A few seconds later, a blue light surrounded him as his body faded from view. He arrived at Sand Zone moments after.

It was the last Sue ever saw of him.

THE END
