Bononbun handed Linda the sheet of paper. She took it with shaking hands. On it was a handwritten note in what she knew was Lewis’s handwriting. The note read, “I got to Flores faster than you thought I would, Linda, and I will return to New York with an ebu gogo while you will probably return to the Keo village without ever even finding one. Ha. Ha. Ha. Ha.” The note was signed, “Your ex-husband, Lewis.”
Linda looked up from the paper. Although the ordeal of the last month had hardened her emotionally, she suddenly became very upset. Lewis was in danger.
Linda looked up pleadingly and said, “Chief Bononbun, please, your tribe has to help me. Lewis and whoever else he brought are in great danger. We need to rescue them. My God, he probably brought our daughter with him. Clare.”
Chief Bononbun said, “I am sorry, but the Keo people will not go into that part of the jungle. The ebu gogo would get their revenge on us, for what our ancestors did to them eight generations ago. We have what you might call an informal treaty. We don’t go to where they live, and they don’t go to where we live. That is the way it must remain.”
Linda shut her eyes tightly, dreading the decision she knew she had to make. She said, “Do you have my gun and my pith helmet?”
The chief took Linda’s gun and helmet from another one of the drawers in his desk and handed them to Linda.
Linda took the gun, put on her helmet, and said, “Goodbye Chief Bononbun. I hope to return to your village soon with Lewis, Clare, and whoever else they brought with them.”
Linda turned and calmly walked out of the hut holding her gun in her hand and wearing nothing but her helmet, boots, and a native loincloth, walked right up to the edge of the jungle and started back the way she had come.
Chapter 18
The three interns were trekking back through the jungle to go capture more ebu gogo, when the short fat intern turned to the tall skinny intern and said, “I think we should split up here.”
The tall intern, shocked, responded, “Are you serious? I mean, I know things have been all fun and games capturing ebu gogo, but must I remind you that we are in the middle of a wild jungle?”
“That’s just it," the fat intern replied. “I’m under a lot of stress and when I’m under stress I need to..." The fat intern motioned his head towards the petite Asian intern, too embarrassed to complete his sentence, hemmed and hawed, and finished simply with, “you know.”
The skinny intern looked at his fellow interns in wide-eyed disbelief and said, “What the fuck is wrong with you two?”
The fat intern threw the dart gun to the skinny intern, said “Fine. You can hold onto this," took the petite Asian intern’s hand, and led her off. The tall skinny intern stood there, holding the dart gun, with an incredibly annoyed look on his face, and called after them into the jungle, “Mr. Dare is gonna be pissed.”
The voice of the fat intern called back from within the jungle, “We’ll meet back up in an hour.”
In a secluded area surrounded by boulders, the fat intern pushed the Asian intern up against a boulder, and the two made out as they removed each other’s clothes. The fat intern’s tits were bigger than the Asian intern’s were, but she liked it, and fondled his boobs with a mischievous grin.
Once they were both completely naked, the fat intern thrust his humungous ass forward and fucked the petite little Asian intern as she squealed in ecstasy. And then suddenly, from all around them, came an incredibly loud, incredibly high-pitched cry, “Yeyeyeyeyeyeyeye!!!!!!”
The cry sounded as if it came from a dozen tiny voices. The Asian intern looked up and asked in a startled voice, “What was that?”
The fat intern was completely lost in performing the sex act and distractedly replied, “Shut up, I need to focus," as he continued to fuck the Asian intern.
The fat intern pointed his face towards the ground and shut his eyes tight in order to concentrate better, so he didn’t notice when a dozen ebu gogo popped up around them from behind the boulders. But the Asian intern looked at them with eyes that went as wide as they could given their slanted shape.
These were different from the ebu gogo that the cryptozoologists had been capturing. While the other ones were all male, these new ones were all female and had enormous low-hanging breasts. While the other ones had gentle looking countenances, these new ones looked fierce. And while the other ones didn’t use tools of any sort, these new ones all had spears, which they held overhand, pointed menacingly at the two interns.
The Asian intern screamed. The fat intern, who did not see the ebu gogo because he was looking at the ground, continued to fuck her with abandon. Finally, after stammering for a moment, the Asian intern shouted, “Doug! Doug! Get the Hell off of me!”
The fat intern, or “Doug," as the Asian intern called him, looked up and saw the female ebu gogo staring down from all around them. Like the Asian intern, he had no idea what they were, but it was clear to both that these menacing hominids intended harm. Before Doug could react however, the female ebu gogo pounced and landed on the two interns. They pulled Doug off the Asian intern, and with little arms around their necks and little hands pulling at their hair, forced the two interns to the ground. Doug and the Asian intern lashed out blindly with their hands and feet, but the ebu gogo punched, kicked, and scratched them. More ebu gogo poured out of the jungle and lifted Doug and the Asian intern off the ground, and carried the two kicking and screaming interns away through the jungle and then into a cavern.
The cavern was lit by many foot-long phosphorescent slugs that crawled all along the walls and ceiling, letting off a dark purple glow. Two ebu gogo near the front grabbed a slug each and used them to light the way as the rest carried the naked interns into a large chamber where they dropped them onto the rock floor.
First, three ebu gogo crawled all over the Asian intern. Her chest was very flat, as is common with women of Asiatic races, and when the ebu gogo poke her chest they said excitedly, “Che-che. Ya che-che ya.”
But then they poked her vagina through its black hair, gave each other confused looks, and said, “Coo-coo? Ne coo-coo ne.”
Then, three other ebu gogo poked Doug’s massive boobs and said disappointedly, “Bee-bee. Ne bee-bee ne.”
But then they poked and flicked his penis and said excitedly, “Wa-wa? Ya wa-wa ya.”
The ebu gogo held Doug to the ground with the points of many spears and an ebu gogo crawled on top of him and moved her vagina back and forth over his penis as her low hanging breasts flopped all over Doug’s blubbery stomach. Doug screamed.
Then, Martin happened to enter the chamber. The first thought Doug and the Asian intern had was that here was another human who could save them. Doug and the Asian intern did not understand what was going on when Martin turned to the females, and cried in the ebu gogo language, “How could you!”
An ebu gogo answered back, in the same strange language that sounded like gibberish to Doug and the Asian intern, “What is wrong?”
Martin screamed, “What’s wrong? What’s wrong? When I went into the pit with the human women, you called me a traitor to the ebu gogo! Now I find that you are all traitors to Martin!”
“We are not traitors to Martin.”
“Yes you are. You all made such a big deal when I went down to have sex with those humans. You made me bring them all out into the jungle, where you killed all except for the one that got away. And now I find you here, with another man?”
“But Martin, we brought those women out into the jungle because we wanted to try to make them into your sisters, remember? You wanted sisters and we wanted to help you. But the human females could not become your sisters. But this man can be your brother. Don’t you want a brother?”
