Chapter 20 - Chapter 20: Dancing Beauty

Saikyo, reaching the top floor, walks out of the elevator and looks around, not knowing where to go, he notices that it's raining.

"I smelled her scent in the elevator but not here, she must be in another place, I should dress a different button."

He walks towards the elevator but sees that the elevator is gone so he presses the button again and waits for it in the rain.

Swan still in the room waits for Abha, she looks at her body in the mirror, taking notice of the floral tattoos around her legs and arms and the heart tattoo on her chest, she feels her long hair.

"Wow, my hair is soft."

She keeps feeling her hair, she gets up to get closer to the mirror, she sees her eyelashes being reddish pink and she once again starts moving her hair, he plays around with it a bit, figuring out she can not only move it like tentacles, but can elongate her hair as well as she makes her hair long while playing with it.

"Wow, I can make my hair longer too."

She keeps looking at her hair, taking note that the ends of her hair are glowing pinkish red.

"Glowing hair, weird."

She thinks to herself.

"These must be the extra enhancements he was talking about; they could prove useful, I should try getting a better understanding of it."

She thinks to herself. Abha returns with one of his wives, someone that Swan doesn't recognize.

"Hm, who's that?"

Swan asks.

"Hm, it's the girl who wasn't competent to keep everything in order, but forget this bitch, follow me, I'll need to warm you up before turning you into my wife tonight."

He says, pushing his wife to the size, showing a lack of respect for her.

"Fine."

Swan replies.

"I'll try searching for any weakness and holes in his skills."

Swan gets up and follows Abha to another room, she looks around the hallway and sees pictures of Abha with his wives. She can tell that the smiles are forced.

"Well, as I'm sure you can already tell, I like a woman who can dance so after I bought that arrow, I added modifications to that arrow, some you can already tell and the best one yet, you have a natural talent for acrobatics, ballet dancing and silk dancing."

The 2 walk into a room with a mirror wall and equipment for Ballet dancing, acrobatics, and aerial silk dancing.

"Why would you give me that, you already have so many other people that do the same thing?"

She asks, looking around the room.

"I like a doll that can dance for me personally, that's all."

Abha responds.

"Makes no sense since you can just ask one of the dancers to dance for you."

She thinks to herself.

"Alright so first, I want you to try dancing, don't worry about not knowing, your body will know what to do."

Abha says, getting a white chair and sitting on it.

Swan stares at him for a bit before trying to dance despite not knowing how she first tried Ballet dancing as Abha predicted, Swan starts Ballet dancing elegantly, her flexibility being unnatural, her leaps being elegant, and her balance being impeccable, she dances on her toes with no pain or injuries despite not having the correct footwear. 

"Wow, that was weird."

Swan says.

"Nice, nice, I expected it to be weird for you but just go along with your body and all should be well, alright now try acrobatics."

Swan and Abha walk to the acrobatic section, Swan observes all the different obstacles.

"Is he trying to train me? Maybe he did this to his wives as well. Wait, could his wives be like me, getting pierced by that same arrow for a mature body for him to lust over, a disgusting thought."

Swan thinks to herself, they both reach the entrance point of the parkour obstacles.

"I want you to traverse this obstacle course, just go along with your body and let it guide you."

Swan notices how he is explaining all this like an innocent child as if he isn't a control freak wife-beater, she is disgusted with his personality shift.

"Fine."

Swan instantly starts the course and once again, she follows along with her body, traversing the course as if she is an expert, it doesn't take long for her to reach the end.

"Perfect, perfect, just what I want to see, now the final one, my favorite."

Swan follows him to an area with different long clothes and scarves.

"I heard cloth dancing revolves around using a cloth to dance right."

She asks.

"Correct, honestly it looks very cool, so I like it."

Abha says, he goes to a closet and grabs a long yellow cloth.

"Here you go, it's the same as before, go along with your body."

Swan grabs the cloth and just starts moving randomly but it quickly changes to Silk Dancing, as if her body can already tell how she wants it to move. She dances for a while and as she does, she realizes something.

"A cloth…as a weapon, it could be versatile if I could control it telepathically like my hair, wait, right, I'm a developer I could make my own cloth."

Now having a potential idea for a new skill, she can develop. She stops dancing and drops the cloth on the ground, she sees Abha crying and clapping his hands.

"A perfect doll, you're all the things I want in my dolls."

Abha wraps his hand around her shoulder, rubbing it while telling her this, Swan is uncomfortable with this but knows she can't do anything about it.

"Well, I'll leave you to it, get used to your body dancing so it doesn't feel weird, I'm sure you will get used to it quickly, I'll be back."

Abha says this while walking away, leaving the room with a smile on his face, as he leaves the room, he looks at one of his wives and tells them.

"Useless garbage."

Swan does Silk dancing first so that she can get used to it.

"I should get used to Silk Dancing first, a skill centered around a versatile cloth that could be just as useful as my strings."

Saikyo waits for the elevator but when the door opens Jack appears on the other side and swings at him, he dodges just in time. He backs up and falls to the ground.

"You…damned…brat."

Jack says, taking a deep breath between each word.

"You have embarrassed me and the legend of Jack the Ripper, to think I would have to drop my persona just to kill you, GO TO HELL!"

She screams, charging towards Saikyo, he dodges her attacks while they are both on the roof.

"This place is very high and it's raining."

As Saikyo keeps dodging, he slips on some water and is just barely at the edge of the roof.

"Gotta be careful."

He moves from the edge and starts to fight Jack; he dodges and throws punches and kicks.

"I shouldn't use my skills, it could backfire up here, especially in this rain."

He keeps up the pace with Jack who is much weaker than before, seemingly from the electric shock before.

"She's getting sloppy, if she keeps doing that, she could fall herself."

Jack, in a blind rage, continues to swing the large scissors loosely. Saikyo once again lands near the edge of the roof, Jack tries to swing at him, but he dodges and she misses, she tries stopping herself but unfortunately for her, her ankle rolls inward, which causes her body to lean off the building and fall off, she hits to pavement and splats on the ground.

Abha is walking across the halls towards somewhere, but he then feels a little jolt in his body.

"Hm, doll number 45 is dead it seems, no matter, Swan is a superior replacement."

Saikyo looks down and sees the splat of blood on the ground as well as Jack's lifeless body. 

"Wow, that's a lot of blood, she's probably dead."

Saikyo goes to the elevator and presses another button, button 15.

Swan, having quickly gotten used to Silk Dancing, sits down and takes a Silk Cloth.

"I should feel this scarf out since I'm a Developer, I should be able to create a better scarf, I should make it extend a long distance like my hair and be able to control with my mind, maybe apply an ability to have it repair itself if it ever tears, yeah, this could work."

Swan continues to feel out the cloth, trying to get a good grasp on its texture, she then starts creating her own Long Scarf, it takes a while for her to complete it, but she manages to create it rather quickly, an extremely long yellow scarf with orange square patterns at the ends.

"This could work, although for the price of those abilities to the scarf, I can't make it disappear, I'm sure it will be fine."

Swan plays around with the long scarf for a bit, moving it around while dancing, and soon enough, she manages to control it telepathically, it moves around like a worm, wraps around her body, and extends.

"This is just as useful as my strings, I'll definitely be able to use this to beat Abha somehow, I should call it, [Silk Dance]." 

The scarf glows a bit, signaling that it's now a skill.

"Oh, that's good, I should hide it though, I can shrink its size so I can hide it under my dress."

She shrinks the scarf and wraps it around her waist, underneath the dress.

"HEY, how's my beautiful doll doing, did you get used to MY enhancements?"

He says, clearly being specific in what he is referring to.

"Yes, yes I did, it doesn't bother me anymore."

She says, not liking his presence in front of her.

"Now with that, it's time for our marriage, Dolls, get her ready."

The women walk into the room and grab Swan, pulling her out of the room, and seemingly bringing her somewhere.

"Where are we going?"

Swan asks, confused.

"We are going to the dressing room to give you your wedding dress."
