The rate at which the human race, and indeed the Earth at large, was conquered by the reptilian space invaders calling themselves ‘The Arisen’ was inconceivable. On an entirely unspectacular September day in 2014 C.E. the things descended. Rhomboid space crafts that had appeared from thin air descended upon all major cities at once. The intent of these visitors was immediately discovered to be antagonistic in nature. As any fan of science fiction might have predicted our weapons were useless against such advanced and foreign machinery. Serpentine robots and bizarre-looking, masked humanoids with tails roamed the streets of cities for days. There was worldwide chaos for an unbearable week as humanity took every measure to save themselves from a faceless foe. Scattered news reports and paper clippings tell that humanity at large abandoned its most populated cities as quickly as was possible.

On October 1st, 2014 The Arisen revealed themselves. The reptilian visitors had a firm grasp of New York City and used our own recording technology to send a message to the pockets of humanity that hid. In their makeshift dens humans around the world watched as the giant, dinosaurian Arisen explained that they come from an alternate, and future version of Earth. According to their story The Arisen and their analogue of Homo sapiens evolved together. The two species enjoyed peace for millennia, but eventually their humans got into shady dealings. Tensions rose in a situation not unlike the Cold War, but unlike our Cold War, theirs ended with the destruction of their entire iteration of Earth. The Arisen then hopped through dimensions until arriving in our own. With a fresh and burning hatred of all things ‘human’ The Arisen stated in no uncertain terms that our Earth would be theirs.  

Naturally the human race fought back as well as they could. In the months that followed the landing of the Arisen groups of humans formed militias. There was no formal organization to the resistance. The shared hatred of the invaders was enough to keep humans fighting. While the humans made guerilla attacks and attempted to cut Arisen supply chains The Arisen were growing outward from the cities. Human structures gave way to giant halls that appeared to be covered in giant scales and other constructs of singularly bizarre design. Despite the vigor and pride it embodied the human resistance dwindled at a steady rate. The Arisen were peculiar in that they always attempted to capture enemies as prisoners rather than kill. What alarmed the resistance though, was that none of their reconnaissance could reveal any camps or prisons for the taken humans. The unsettling question on every person’s mind was “What happens to the captured humans?”

In a Massachusetts suburb, present date, one such reconnaissance mission has ended in failure. Three humans; Enzo, Cass, and their de-facto leader Arnold were following a supply train on foot when they were knocked out from behind. Enzo was the first to awaken. He blinks himself awake slowly. Then as he remembered the details surrounding his sudden lapse in consciousness he awakes with a start. He is sitting in the bed of a large truck-like vehicle of Arisen make with his unconscious comrades and two Arisen guards. Enzo, finding his arms shackled, shuffles himself into the corner of the flat-bed. He had never seen an Arisen in the flesh before, and hoped never to. The guards looked his way with amusement. The beasts stand at about seven feet in height, though they are seated now. They possess forest green scales with horizontal stripes on their upper arms and thighs in a darker green. Both are dressed in sturdy black boots of some leathery material. They wear short briefs that reveal much of their thick, muscular legs. On the upper bodies are form fitting shirts covered with bandoliers of strange looking gadgets. Their beefy arms terminate in four-fingered hands equipped with fearsome claws. Enzo stares in terror at their faces. They appear infinitely more unsettling than in the videos. Each bears a meaty snout bearing a resemblance to those Tyrannosaurus rex were thought to have; though a bit shorter at about three inches long. The grinning maws are filled with sharp, cone shaped teeth again resembling those of the dinosaurs. The pupils of the eyes are of a slit sort yet the iris colors seem to coincide a human palette including brown, hazel, and even blue. The creatures looked exactly human enough to be uncanny while retaining the dreaded reptilian aspect. 

Enzo sat frozen in terror for several minutes. Soon his companions regained consciousness and went through much the same reaction as Enzo had. Arnold maintained his resolve surprisingly well and was the first to speak.

“Where are you taking us?!” Arnold yelled in as powerful a tone as he could bring to bear against the guards. The nearest Arisen turned and grunted.

“You are being brought to the nearest processing plant. The same one that the supply train you were following was headed toward.” His deep voice gave one the impression that he explained this often. The humans were unnerved that an answer had been given so simply. The Arisen were entirely sure of themselves.

“Processing?” Arnold asked “Of what? For that matter, what do you do with all the humans you capture? We know you don’t have any prisons.” Arnold briefly imagined throngs of humans being fed to Arisen raw before perishing the thought. Both guards found his outburst greatly enjoyable and burst out laughing. The reaction of the reptiles only served to scare the captives more. The nearest guard slowly looked Arnold up and down as if sizing him up. 

“You will soon see.” Again the guards chuckled. 

At length the truck approached a large compound bustling with Arisen. The humans could make out two stout towers with several large tents around their bases. The truck came to a halt. The humans were crudely shoved off of the truck bed. The guards then jumped down and were joined by the driver of the truck who carried a set of chains. With these the guards unshackled and re-shackled the humans so that they were in a line and forced close to one another. The guards pulled the humans along under the nearest tent. Arriving at a desk attended by a small, bookish Arisen, the guards produced a metallic cylinder which bore text in the Arisen language. After reading the document the Arisen at the desk turned and yelled into the bustle of Arisen and captive humans behind him. “Arpex, you’re up!”

The humans saw a head in the crowd perk up. A massive and brutish looking Arisen shoved his way to the group. He glared at the humans with a disturbing, ravenous expression in his brown eyes. 

“Finally! I’ve been waiting for my turn.” Arpex said with a growl. He flexed the claws of his hands in anticipation.

“Haha, have fun rookie.” One of the guards said before shoving the trio of humans into Arpex’s arms.

“I’m going to enjoy making these disgusting apes suffer.” Arpex said. Arnold stole a glance over Arpex’s prodigious pectorals to see a sinister grin. In one swift motion Arpex turned on his heel and, yanking the humans along with him, began speeding toward the nearest tower. Arpex’s stride was too fast for the humans shackled as they were and they began to stumble. Sensing the disturbance Arpex paused and wheeled around. 

“Up, you worthless beasts, let’s go!” He bellowed with eyes wide and maniacal. The Arisen yanked the chain in one hand as hard as he could. The captives were too scared to move, but managed to slowly rise to their feet. Arpex resumed his heading for the tower while occasionally jerking the chain and cackling. The group arrived at the bulkhead of the tower. The entryway was made of black metal and was blocked with a lattice gate. Arpex produced a key which appeared to be a simple pin but must have contained some unimaginable technology. After inserting it into a keyhole the gate and entryway opened rapidly revealing a grand, round entryway. Arpex dragged his prisoners inside. The group passed a desk where Arpex flashed an identification tag. 

“Room 237, Arpex.” The desk attendant called after them. At this Arpex simply laughed. The humans huddled together as Arpex led them to an elevator. Arpex pulled the humans inside, shut the doors, and pounded the switch of the destination floor. Enzo, Cass, and Arnold were deeply uncomfortable being alone with their dinosauric keeper. As if to validate their fears Arpex lunged at Arnold and pinned him to the wall with a hand over his face. Enzo and Cass stumbled back to see Arnold struggling and kicking at Arpex who couldn’t have appeared more unfazed. 

“Mmpph!” Arnold screamed.

“It’s true what they say. You are so, so weak. I could crush your head right now and eat the insides if I wanted to.” Arnold froze, “But that would be too generous of me. Your kind destroyed our planet and you would do the same to this one if it weren’t for us. You will learn that the only place for a human is at the feet of an Arisen. Mua haha.” Arpex threw Arnold against the wall just as the elevator door opened. Cass and Enzo helped Arnold to his feet. Arnold was naturally shaken, but Enzo was surprised to find a look of confusion linger on Arnold’s face as he watched Arpex exit the elevator. 

At length the humans joined Arpex in a stark grey hallway that clashed with the technologically advanced rotunda they had entered through. Arpex walked to a nearby door and produced the same key as before to unlock it. Inside a set of automatic lights revealed three suspiciously high-tech tables set merely a foot above the ground. In the corner of the circular chamber was a console of kind bearing a holographic green screen. After leading the increasingly anxious prisoners inside Arpex shut and locked the door. Arpex removed the chains connecting the prisoners, leaving them merely handcuffed. He then took Enzo firmly in his clawed hands and walked him to one of the tables. 

“N-No, Hey!” Enzo yelled while trying to struggle out of Arpex’s vice grip. Cass and Arnold were gripped with fear and began pounding on the door. Arpex saw no threat in the ruckus and proceeded to shackle Enzo to the sinister-looking table. After Enzo’s ankles and wrists were firmly secure Arpex began to carefully slice off Enzo’s clothing with a single claw. “What, oh god!” Enzo yelled. Cass and Arnold glanced at Ezno before redoubling their efforts in a panic. 

In their clamor Arnold and Cass failed to hear Arpex stalking toward them. The mighty dino-man grabbed Cass around the waist and hoisted her over his shoulder. Arnold continued to scream and shout as Cass was brought to the table adjacent to the one holding the undressed, shuddering form of Enzo. Like Enzo she was immobilized and carefully disrobed. By the door Arnold turned to see his helpless companions and stumbled back. He let loose a fit of nervous laughter.

“Oh god.” Arnold’s laughing continued, “Finally, this-this is terrifying. I assume your superiors told you about me, Ben Arnold?” Arpex turned at this and slowly approached Arnold. 

“And what are you Mr. Ben Arnold?” Arpex asked coyly. Arnold glared at his perplexed, supposed teammates quickly before averting his eyes.

“I’m the informant. I was contacted by an Arisen captain, Vredge. He told me that if I could bring you two humans he would guarantee my safety in Arisen society.” Arnold slowly regained his composure.

“Arnold?! Are you serious? You fucking bastard!” Cass yelled from the table. Arpex continued closing in on Arnold.

“She’s right you know. That is vile. You would sacrifice your own dying race to save your own skin? Wow. You are disgusting.” Arpex was face to face with Arnold now. Rather Arnold was craning his neck back to see into Arpex’s frowning face. “You know, I think I have just the right punishment for you.” Arpex swiftly grabbed Arnold by the shoulders and carried him over his head. He then slammed Arnold onto the remaining table and set to removing his clothing.”

“Hey, you idiot! Your general assured my immunity. You’ll be tried for this!” Arnold desperately cried.

“My ‘general’ hasn’t assured anything. Arisen soldiers send out messages like that to see if any of you humans are selfish enough to bring us prisoners to save themselves. And today you are that selfish bastard.” Arpex explained to a morbidly embarrassed Arnold. The set of humans were arranged struggling on their tables. Cass and Enzo lobbed curses at Arnold who softly wept.

Arpex strolled to the console in the corner and hit a series of switches. When he was through a strange current seemed to flow through the humans’ bodies and caused them to writhe in discomfort. Their discomfort was doubled when they found that their captor was disrobing in front of them. Evidently pleased with himself Arpex swayed his hips and tail as he untied his boots and kicked them off. He hummed to himself. After slipping the dank socks off of his three well-clawed toes he slowly drew down his briefs followed by a surprisingly plain set of white underwear.

“What the hell are you doing? You freak.” Enzo yelled in disgust. It wasn’t enough that he was stark naked in front of the creature, but now he was forced to watch the reptilian pervert reveal himself. As the Arisen removed the last of his clothing the humans felt the discomfort caused by the tables turn into a disturbing nullness. With a smile on his toothy maw and a wild lust in his eyes Arpex approached Enzo. Arpex stood straddling Enzo with his fully erect endowments in full view. Enzo flinched as Arpex raised a mighty foot and planted it on his face. A wave of overpowering odor and embarrassment simultaneously flooded the prisoner. The giant sole of the foot nearly engulfed Ezno’s face and the clawed toes threatened to scratch his eyes. Try as he did Enzo was unable to remove himself from the foot’s breadth.

“Hah, oh yess. I know your must love the scent of my scaly toes.” Arpex was beside himself with glee. “I’ve had my boots on for a while so I’m sure they smell extra nice.” 

While struggling to escape from Arpex’s massive leathery foot Enzo slowly realized his legs were unmovable. Cass let out a scream which only increased Enzo’s panic. 

“Oooh, the first look at the rest of your sad existence.” Arpex said before finally removing his foot. Enzo checked his legs to find that they had all but withered away. In their place a white fabric was crawling its way up his body. Is upper body became numb as well as the hollow cloth slowly overtook him. He looked at Cass in abject horror to find the same changes were occurring to her.

“Wh-what the hell is this.” Enzo screamed.

Ignoring him Arpex made his way over to Cass. After running a claw hungrily around her remaining flesh parts he shoved a foot in her face as well. 

“Mmm, feel free to lick the claws human. You may as well get to know them.” Arpex began stroking his chest and panting as he forced his foot into Cass’ face. “You fit just right below my feet don’t you?” The white tubular fabric approached Enzo and Cass’ necks.

When Arpex was through with Cass he made his way to Arnold who was transforming into a different white garment all together. Arpex stood astride Arnold who was struggling to move his limbs which were rapidly becoming limp cloth. Arpex sat down on his thighs exposing his ass and tail to Arnold while he continued to touch himself. The Arisen’s rear was clean though it was rank with an unmistakable stench. Arnold gagged.

“This is what you get you filthy traitor.” Arpex taunted as he grinded his ass in helpless Arnold’s face. “I’m going to wear you for days without changing. I’m going to make you wish you were never born.”

“Wear?! What do you-- someone help! Help mmm! Hmm-------” As Arnold’s world went black a single question echoed in his consciousness…

“What happens to the captured humans?” 

Sitting on the tables were two socks sized for an Arisen and a white pair of briefs with an appropriate tail hole. After calming himself down Arpex collected his new undergarments. He sat in a plain chair while donning his socks.

The socks that had been Enzo and Cass felt the most peculiar sensations of their lives as relatively gigantic clawed feet were slipped inside of themselves. It took them minutes to even comprehend what curse had befallen them. Immediately the dominating stench of Arpex’s leathery feet reasserted itself and the new garments gagged inwardly. While they couldn’t see they could still hear, feel, and most unfortunately, smell. In a second Arpex replaced his boots which covered Cass and Enzo around their entire selves. They were trapped within the sweaty and smelly confines of an Arisen’s boot and there was absolutely nothing they could do about it.

Above ‘Arnold’ was experiencing a different hell. The pair of briefs that had once been Arnold were now worn snugly around Arpex’s groin. Arnold felt the new and unwelcome sensation of entirely covering the reptile’s waist while simultaneously feeling Arpex’s legs sticking through his ‘body.’ As Arpex slid on his tight shorts his entire package was crammed closer to Arnold and the smells became unbearable. As if on cue Arpex passed gas which was contained in the shorts and flooded Arnold’s senses.

Arpex finished donning his clothing and Enzo, Cass, and Arnold could feel their wearer get up and walk from the room. Arnold could feel himself growing tighter as Arpex became excited.

“I hope you enjoy this as much as I am, filthy humans.” Arpex said laughing to himself as his captives found themselves without mouths, but with an overwhelming desire to scream.
