The Story So Far
Spacerebels of Gor, part 9
Calle Dybedahl
The young woman adjusted the top of her silver chain-mail bikini,
smoothed down her unruly brown hair and cleared her throat.
"Ok, let's see..." she said, brow furrowing in thought. "From an
ancient alien artifact, Avon has gained the power to perceive and
change the universe at its most basic level, the level only known as
the Script. He, being the emotionally immature git he is, used his new
powers to drastically reduce the amount of clothing worn by the female
characters and to make sure that Jenna stayed on when Blake left at
the start of season three. Reached by a rumour that his old lover Anna
Grant languishes in a Federation prison facility on the planet Gor, he
had the Liberator go there in order to rescue her. The rescue attempt
quickly lost track of what it was supposed to be doing in favour of a
number of more or less gratuitous sex scenes -- in none of which Avon
gets any, incidentally -- and various other complications. Servalan is
drawn to Gor by the power of the Script, and soon ends up chained
naked to a wall. However, she is rescued by Travis 1, who has somehow
obtained the only thing that can resist the power of the Script -- a
piece of pure plotdevicium. We note that he doesn't provide
any clothing for Servalan, so maybe Avon isn't the only immature git
in this story."
She paused to take a sip from a jewel-encrusted goblet.
"Having lost Avon, the rest of the gang decides to try to rescue Anna
before he returns and messes things up even further for them. Some
guards have told Jenna that Anna must be in the extra-high security
part of the prison, known as the Inner Volume. On their way there,
they meet an old enemy of Cally's from her school days on Auron, a
warrior woman by the name of Xena, and her 'friend' Gabrielle. After
some friendly fighting between Cally and Xena, our heroes are told
that Anna Grant isn't a prisoner, she's the commander of the
prison facility. They proceed into the Inner Volume, where it soon
becomes apparent that Cally's personality is being contaminated by the
personality of a character from another series. She abducts Gabrielle,
and teases Xena mercilessly. While she and Xena fights, the others
rescue Gabrielle, who leads them to a recreation room where she tricks
everybody to ingest a strong aphrodisiac -- and we have more
gratuitous sex scenes until Xena and Cally rejoin the gang and they
proceed towards Anna. Meanwhile, Anna has been told that Avon has been
captured in her prison, so she orders her amazons to bring him to her.
While they do so, they also encounter Servalan and Travis. Not being
impressed by the still naked Servalan's attitude, they tie her and
Avon together, drag them back to the Inner Volume and chain them to
opposite walls of a cell.
She paused for a moment or three.
"That's where we stand right now, as far as I know," she said.
The other young woman sitting next to the first one looked strangely
at her friend.
"Have you been smoking stuff again, Recapitulatrix, or what the heck
are you talking about?" she asked.
The first woman looked down at the floor, blushing.
"I'm sorry," she said. "I don't know what came over me. It just sort
of happens sometimes, is all."
