——————————————————-
Johnny and Barbara were on their way to what would be the last Halloween party they, or anyone else, would ever attend. They just didn’t know it yet.
Their best friends Tom and Judy held the party every year at their family cabin in the woods of upstate Pennsylvania. It was the perfect setting; away from civilization, set in a clearing surrounded by trees that created a canopy of stars above them. They could party around the bonfire, music playing loudly without fear of disturbing the neighbors. More often than not, if the alcohol was flowing freely enough, and the fall air wasn’t too cold, several people would invariably lose their clothing and go skinny dipping in the small lake just behind the cabin.
Not Johnny and Barbara, of course. Or at least, not around each other, if it could be helped. Because who wanted to be naked around their sibling?
At 21, this would be Barbara’s first Halloween where she could drink legally. Not that it had stopped her before, of course. Alcohol had become part of the equation long before most of the regular attendees were of age, but there was always someone who could get something.
Now, most of their friends were over 21, and the thrill of ill gotten booze had long since faded. Of course, there was also pot, but even that was far easier to obtain than it used to be. Occasionally, someone would bring something stronger, like cocaine or Xtacy, but neither of them messed with that kind of thing too often.
Barbara had tried X once and wound up having anal sex with a guy she’d just met, and while she didn’t regret the experience, she’d decided once was enough, and didn’t wanna risk that kind of thing again.
Last year, Johnny had done several lines of coke, and was flying high until he tried to have sex with his girlfriend in the lake and couldn’t get it up.
He sometimes wondered if that was the beginning of the end of their relationship. She’d dumped him several months later.
Barbara too was currently single. She didn’t have much hope of meeting a guy at the party; all the men she knew would be there were either taken, or just not her type. But she hoped maybe there’d be a few new faces to hopefully mingle with, possibly more than mingle with.
Johnny was having similar thoughts, and as they drove the winding backroads that lead to the cabin, the ride was mostly quiet, both their spirits dampened by the thought of attending what was usually a wild and crazy party single.
But he tried to keep his spirits up, because for him, Halloween was an extra special occasion. It also happened to be his 25th birthday.
His birthday parties had always been combined with Halloween long before the cabin tradition had started, and Johnny didn’t mind. To him it was the best of both worlds.
Since both were flying solo, they hadn’t really bothered to coordinate costumes.
Johnny had gone all out this year, wearing an almost screen accurate version of the outfit worn by Captain Malcolm Reynolds from Firefly, right down to the long, flowing browncoat he’d stumbled across in a thrift store. Johnny bore just enough of a passing resemblance to actor Nathan Fillion to pull it off, although if he was being honest, he wasn’t nearly as handsome.
Barbara, who felt she was getting a little old for silly costumes, had kept it simple. She was dressed as a Sexy Nurse.
Johnny’s eyes couldn’t help but notice how short Barb’s skirt was, or how it was riding up her fishnet covered thighs as she squirmed impatiently in the passenger seat.
“We’re gonna be late. Again,” Barbara complained.
“Well maybe if you didn’t take so long doing your makeup and squeezing your boobs into that tiny outfit, we’d have gotten an earlier start,” Johnny grumbled.
“Hey, it takes a while to look this slutty, and I had to tape my boobs because they kept popping out,” said Barbara, sounding annoyed.
“T.M.I.” said Johnny. He glanced over at her skimpy outfit. “Think you can keep those puppies contained til we get there?”
“Eyes on the rode, pervert,” Barbara snapped.
They drove on in silence, except for the radio. Ever since they’d entered the woods, the Wi-Fi was sparse, and streaming music from their phones was next to impossible. That left the car radio, but the only station they could get was a local news channel that was just barely making its way through the static. Johnny had only kept it on as background noise, but now he turned it up to drown out the awkward silence.
An announcer’s voice was crackling over the speakers.
“…comet passing through the Earth’s atmosphere tonight, previously undetected by NASA until just outside Earth’s orbit…”
The radio let loose a loud blast of static, causing Barbara to reach for the volume knob. “Hey, I was listening to that,” objected Johnny, smacking her hand away.
He turned the volume back up, just in time to catch,“…stress that the green glow is simply harmless, low level radiation, and will cause no lasting…”
Out of the corner of Johnny’s eye, he saw it. “Barb! Look at that!” he shouted, pointing up and out the front windshield.
There was just enough space between the surrounding trees on either side of the road to see the comet trailing overhead, a bright green speck in the sky. The tail flowing behind it must have been…well, Johnny was no astronomer, but he knew it must be hundreds, perhaps thousands of miles long to leave such a long, visible streak in the dark night sky.
Waves of soft, glowing green energy radiated off the tail in waves, drifting then dissipating into the black.
“Watch out!” Barb cried, and Johnny’s eyes went back to the road just in time to avoid the guardrail along the curve he was drifting towards. Righting the car with a jerk of the wheel, he got it under control just in time and continued driving, albeit at a much slower pace for the moment.
“Jesus, Johnny, you almost killed us! It’s just a stupid comet. Pay attention to the road, will ya?”
Johnny thought about yelling back at Barb, took a deep breath, gripped the wheel, and let it go. She was right. The comet was cool looking, but not worth dying over.
Yet his eyes couldn’t help but flicker upwards whenever he felt it safe, just for a split second, to try and catch a glimpse of the comet as it continued it’s long, deceptively slow path across the night sky.
——————————————————-
They arrived at the cabin about twenty minutes later, and the party was already in high gear. They could see the light of the bonfire rising up from behind the cabin, and hear the music coming from the sound system Tom always had set up outside.
The radio was still playing as they pulled next to the other cars lined up in the clearing out front.
“…are now encouraging people to stay indoors…merely a precaution, but…”
Johnny killed the engine. “Thank God,” Barb said, scrambling out the door, “I gotta get in there and pee before my bladder bursts!”
Johnny lingered behind for a few seconds, scanning the sky. The comet itself was no longer visible, but it’s tail still streaked across the sky as far as he could see. It was a bit unnerving.
Shaking it off, he turned and headed towards the cabin to join the party.
——————————————————-
Fifteen minutes of hugs, handshakes, and a rousing chorus of “Happy Birthday” later, Johnny found himself sitting by the bonfire with an ice cold beer in his hand.
Tom and Judy were making their way over, pausing here and there to chat and take pictures with some of the other guests.
They’d always had great costumes every Halloween, and this year was no different. Tom looked very much the part of Gomez Addams, with his suave mustache and slicked black hair, but it was Judy who truly stole the show. She had the perfect body to pull off Morticia, with her large, full breasts prominently on display in the skin tight black dress. Her thin waist, wide hips and thick, curved ass perfectly filled out the rest of it. She wore a long black wig over her real chestnut blonde hair, and had made her face pale with makeup. Her eyes were blackened with mascara, and her full pouty lips were accentuated with a ruby red lipstick.
Johnny felt a twinge of jealousy towards Tom, as well as a twinge in his trousers.
“Thought you weren’t gonna make it, birthday boy,” laughed Tom, already weaving slightly off balance. Judy took his arm with the pretense of staying in character, but in reality to help steady him.
“Ah, you know…sisters,” shrugged Johnny.
“Speaking of, where is Barb?” asked Judy.
“Last I saw her she was making a beeline for the bathroom,” said Johnny.
Looking around, he eventually spotted Barbara chatting with a tall, muscular, good looking black man dressed as Blade the vampire hunter. He towered over Barbara’s shorter frame, and Johnny was pretty sure the guy was taking advantage of his costume’s sunglasses to stare down Barb’s ample cleavage. Not that she was making any effort to hide it; leaning forward towards him, then arching her back and jutting out her chest with laughter at something witty he’d apparently said.
“There she is,” said Johnny, pointing. “Who’s that she’s with?”
“Oh that’s Ben,” answered Tom. “He’s a new hire at the office this year, good guy. Thought it’d be nice to invite him.”
Johnny wasn’t sure about how “good” Ben was with the way he was leering at his sister’s tits, but he supposed he couldn’t blame him. If Barb was gonna flaunt them like that, guys were gonna look. But that was her business, not his.
Judy wandered off to go say hi to Barbara, and Johnny was just about to go get another beer, when he heard an unknown voice call out from over by the lake. “Hey guys, come check this out!”
Johnny, Tom, and several others made their way over towards the lake and came across a shocking sight.
Two of the party guests were engaged in a rather extreme public display of affection. Johnny didn’t recognize them at first, only their Raggedy Ann and Andy costumes. Then he realized the guy was an old college buddy, Harry. That would, hopefully, make the woman currently servicing him his fiance, Helen.
It was dark, but between the stars and the bonfire, there was enough light to make out the details. Harry was sprawled on his back in the sand. Helen was on her hands and knees, her head in his lap, bobbing up and down furiously, giving him a quite enthusiastic blowjob.
“Yeah, you go girl!” a random voice yelled, to several cheers from the gathering crowd. “Get it, Harry!” another voice called.
Something about the whole thing didn’t sit right with Johnny. Oh, there was always some sex going on at these parties over the years, but it was usually hidden away; couples sneaking off into the cabin or, if particularly bold, a quick, quiet tryst in the lake or woods. There were also the occasional streakers and skinny dippers, male and female, but in all the years since the beginning, there had never been such a bold, open display of sexual activity as this.
He’d always known Harry and Helen to be a pretty reserved couple; public sex just wasn’t their style. Yet there they were; Harry, his baggy blue costume shorts pulled down unceremoniously around his knees. Helen, her short gingham skirt doing nothing to cover her petite ass, showing off her white panties with red polka dots to anyone who wanted to look.
Most of the crowd was still cheering them on but, perhaps because he was still sober, Johnny began to notice some disturbing details.
Harry’s eyes were a blank stare. His mouth was agape, his tongue lolling listlessly. His body was twisted and contorted, as if he had collapsed in an unconscious heap. Except for his chest heaving with breath, he wasn’t moving.
Helen’s face was obscured, but her body language was all wrong. Her back was arched high and tense. Her hands were dug into the sand on either side of Harry’s hips, digging into it with fierce clutches. Animalistic grunts came from her throat as her head rocked frantically. She looked less like a lover giving head, and more like a lioness devouring her kill.
Suddenly Harry’s head shot up, his eyes flaring back to life, and he let out a loud scream that didn’t sound like pleasure at all. Helen’s head stopped moving, Harry’s cock still buried deep in her throat. Johnny could hear the eerily wet sounds of sucking, and watched as Helen’s throat convulsed, swallowing rapidly.
There were several cheers and rounds of applause from the drunken party goers that ceased immediately when Helen spun around and lifted herself to her feet. As if on cue, the music that had been continually playing behind everyone stopped.
Helen’s doll makeup was smeared in a horrifying mess across her usually beautiful, round face. Her mouth and chin were dripping with a mix of semen, saliva, and red lipstick. Her lips were twisted in an animalistic snarl, her teeth gnashing wildly.
But it was her eyes that terrified Johnny the most. The whites had gone blood red, as if every capillary in them had burst at once. Her pupils were wide and dilated. The irises of her eyes, formerly a beautiful, soft brown, now glowed a radioactive green that Johnny recognized instantly, although it would be some time yet before he fully comprehended it.
Helen turned and faced the horrified onlookers, her body hunched, arms wide at her sides. Her fingers hooked like talons. Letting out an unearthly howl, she turned and fled into the woods.
Ten seconds of silence later, all hell broke loose.
——————————————————-
Somewhere behind Johnny, someone screamed. Then another. Then several screams at once. Then came the sound of running.
Johnny turned to face the noise and was met with a mind boggling scene.
A group of several men, many Johnny knew, some he didn’t, were sprinting across the yard and around the cabin, apparently heading for their cars, or at least anywhere away from here. They were being chased by several women, running after them like a pack of rabid dogs, howling madly.
The men who weren’t running were either collapsed on the ground or standing transfixed, unmoving. The remaining women were at them, pulling at their pants, ripping buttons and breaking zippers in a frenzied effort to free their dicks. Dropping to their knees, or all fours, they began to suck their cocks hungrily.
Each and every man had full erections.
Johnny turned to Tom, trying to stem his rising panic. “What the hell is happening?”
Tom wasn’t paying attention to Johnny. Instead, he was looking back towards the insane orgy. “Hey!” yelled Tom, “HEY! What the fuck???” He took off in a dash, Johnny close behind him.
The object of Tom’s attention was Judy. She was currently on her knees, servicing a mutual friend, Phil, who stood there, static and rigid, as Judy’s ruby red lips engulfed his raging hard-on.
Tom thought this quite strange and objectionable behavior, given that, one: Judy was his wife, and two: Phil was very openly gay.
“Judy!” Tom yelled. “What the HELL are you doing? Stop that right now, or I’ll…”
Instead of finishing his threat, Tom lurched towards Judy. Her head whipped up in a frenzy, growling at him. Her eyes were the same horror as Helen’s had been, bloodshot red and glowing green.
Tom jumped back from her, startled. Judy growled at him again, a growl Johnny recognized from his experiences while hunting. It was a warning, the snarl of a female predator defending its cub, or it’s kill. Judy slowly turned her head and went back to sucking Phil’s cock.
Tom, either because of shock or alcohol, clearly did not recognize the warning, and lunged towards his wife again. Johnny tried to grab his arm, hold him back, but it was too late.
Tom grabbed Judy by her hair. “You fucking slut…” he began.
He never finished. What happened next happened in a split seconds time, but for Johnny it played out in slow motion, in horrifying, vivid detail.
Judy let loose an ear splitting screech, and suddenly her face was blasted in a spray of hot thick blood. Her head whipped to one side with a terrible ripping sound as more blood gushed.
She was on her feet with preternatural speed, Phil’s torn and shredded penis dangled from her mouth, dripping. Whirling on her husband, her arm swung out savagely, fingernails poised like claws, and ripped out his throat.
Tom’s blood gushed like a fountain, spraying all over his already blood soaked wife. Phil collapsed to the ground, screaming in agony. Tom couldn’t scream at all. He grasped his throat, trying to stem the blood flow. He dropped to his knees, gasped silently once, twice, then fell over. He was dead before he hit the ground.
The thing that used to be Judy looked at both her victims for only a second before turning towards Johnny, who stood frozen in abject horror. Then, letting out a howl much like Helen before her, she ran off towards the woods.
From out of nowhere, a tall, dark figure dressed in black swooped in and knelt down beside Phil. It was Ben, the guy Johnny saw talking with Barbara earlier.
“Barbara!” Johnny yelped. “Where’s my sister???”
“I don’t know,” grunted Ben. He was trying to apply pressure to Phil’s groin with a towel to staunch the bleeding. It wasn’t helping much; the white towel stained red almost instantly. “You got a phone? Call 911, man! Then find some more towels, I have to stop the bleeding before he bleeds out.”
Johnny snapped out of his trance and dug around in his pockets until he found his phone. He dialed 911, but got no connection. Tried it again, still nothing. Third try, he got a busy signal, then disconnected. “How the hell does 911 have a BUSY signal?” Johnny thought.
He tried several more calls; his parents, Tom’s parents, 911 again, his boss from work, nothing. Apparently all cell lines were down.
“Nothing, no signal,” said Johnny. “Towels,” Ben grunted, still struggling to hold Phil and keep pressure on his wound. Johnny thought about exactly what had caused that wound and almost vomited, but managed to control his gorge.
He turned to look for a towel and froze in his tracks. Several more men were still in the yard with them. All were frozen in place, each one being sucked ravenously by maddened, cock craving women.
“Stay clear of them,” Ben’s voice came from behind. “They should ignore you as long as you don’t interfere. Now find something, a towel, a blanket, anything! Go, now!”
Johnny went, giving the insane women and their hapless victims a wide berth. He found two towels on some lawn chairs and quickly returned with them.
Ben took the new towels and put them over the one he was currently holding, which had completely soaked through. Phil had stopped moving, and his screams were now low, raspy gasps. His face was ghostly white, and his eyes had rolled back in his head. It wasn’t looking good.
Johnny stood, shocked and silent, and watched his friend die.
Ben checked for breathing, checked for a pulse, and found neither. He stood, his blood stained hand grabbed Johnny by the arm. “We gotta get out of here, now! You got a car, right? Let’s go back to town, find the police, we can…”
Johnny pulled away from him. “Not without Barbara!” he yelled. “Barbara? Barbara!” Johnny turned towards the cabin, calling his sister’s name.
The women let loose low warning growls; the closest one stopped sucking her entranced victim’s cock and turned her head towards Johnny menacingly.
Ben grabbed Johnny by the shoulders, spun him around, shook him. “Will you shut UP, man? You want them coming after you? If your sister’s around, she’s probably as mad as the rest! We gotta get out of here, understand? Go get help!”
Ben dragged Johnny by his arm, and together they made their way around the side of the cabin towards the clearing filled with cars. They rounded the corner and stopped short.
Several more women were feasting on the cocks of helpless men. Johnny saw four more male bodies on the ground. Three were most certainly dead, judging from the blood pooling beneath them; the fourth Johnny couldn’t be sure about.
The women not busy madly giving head were destroying the cars. Headlights were smashed, windshields bashed in, and one was systematically puncturing tires with a lug wrench. Several cars had their hoods up, and Johnny could see a mishmash of wires and hoses dangling. And from the smell of it, at least one was leaking fuel.
The women stopped what they were doing as Ben and Johnny came into view, and all turned their heads as one to glare at them. The two closest women advanced on them slowly.
Both men instinctively made for the cabin door. Racing inside, they slammed the door, and Ben bolted the latch.
They stood there, breathless, backs against the door. Everything was quiet. Then they heard the sounds of smashing glass and metal; the women had resumed their destruction of the cars.
Ben eased his way over to the window and peaked out. The two women that had been following them had turned back and joined the others.
“I think we’re okay for now,” said Ben. “I’m going to take a quick look around the cabin, see if…we’re alone. Stay here, keep an eye on them, yell if any try to get in.”
Johnny kept watch. The women were too far away and it was too dark to be able to identify any of them. If Barbara was among them, Johnny couldn’t tell. The only one he recognized was Judy. She had apparently returned from the woods and appeared to be supervising the demolition, inspecting each vehicle she walked by, silently directing other women over to certain cars to do more damage. He realized she was making sure each and every car was too damaged to drive.
Johnny felt a hand land on his shoulder. He jumped and hit his head harshly on the window frame. He turned in a panic…but it was only Ben.
“Fuck, dude, you scared the piss out of me,” Johnny hissed.
“Sorry,” said Ben. “The cabin is empty besides us, I looked. Is there a landline phone in here?”
Without waiting for an answer, Ben started searching the living room. He found a phone sitting on an end table by the couch, picked it up, tried the buttons, then slammed it down. “Fuck,” he swore. He fished his own cell phone out his jacket pocket and tried to make a call. It was as dead as Johnny’s. Ben almost threw it across the room, then thought better of it, and slipped it back in his pocket.
“What the hell is going on?” Ben muttered to himself.
Johnny’s emotionless voice answered him. “I think…I think it was the comet.”
“The comet?” Ben replied. “What makes you think that?”
“Their…eyes,” said Johnny. His voice was monotonous. “Their eyes glowed green. The same glow as the comet.”
Ben considered this. He’d seen the comet earlier as well, but hadn’t made the connection between it and the current state of the women. If the comet was indeed responsible, then there was a good chance this wasn’t simply some crazy but isolated incident. It could mean…he needed to know more.
“The TV,” thought Ben. Hunting around, he found the remote, and started flicking through the channels. Most of them were out, but just as he was about to give up, he found one that was still working. It was the local news broadcast station in Pittsburgh, roughly 50 miles away.
The image flickered with static, but was clear enough to see the newscaster at the desk. His lips were moving, but made no sound. Ben adjusted the volume.
“…have tried to reach the National Guard for help, but have been unable to contact them so far. There are reports of chaos and looting in the streets, and local authorities are putting out the plea to remain calm and indoors until the exact nature of this crisis can be determined.”
Johnny joined Ben by the TV as the newscaster continued.
“If you’re just joining us, we’ll recap what we know so far: At approximately 10:30 PM eastern standard time, reports started coming in of multiple sexual and physical assaults on men, perpetrated by women of all ages. There appears to be no explanation for these assaults. Victims seem to be chosen at random, with some reporting attacks by family members, while others report being molested by complete strangers. Police have reported multiple casualties, as women have brutally murdered anyone attempting to stop their assaults on…”
A loud pounding on the patio doors broke both men’s concentration, and they quickly stood up, prepared for an attack.
To their surprise, they saw Harry, standing up against the glass. His face was pale and frightened, but otherwise, he looked normal.
Ben went to the door and opened it cautiously, readying himself in case Harry was being pursued. Harry darted through the door and collapsed to his knees as Ben closed and locked the sliding doors, drawing the blinds.
“Harry?” Johnny gasped. “What the hell happened? I thought you were dead, or…”
Harry was trembling, but he managed to compose himself enough to speak.
“Helen and I…went to sit by the lake, just to…look up at the stars, be alone for a little while. All of a sudden I felt her tense up, and then she looked at me, and…oh God, her eyes, her eyes were…and then I…my body went limp. I collapsed in the sand. I couldn’t move. And she was…clawing at my pants, yanking them down. I was terrified, but somehow I got…and then she was…oh, Jesus, where is she? What happened to her?”
The panic in his voice was palpable. Ben and Johnny helped lead Harry to the couch, and Ben found a blanket to put over him, trying to keep him from going into shock.
“What’s happening?” asked Harry. “I saw more women out there, they were…the men were like me, frozen, entranced…and I saw…bodies, blood…”
“We don’t know,” said Ben. “We just turned on the news. Looks like it’s happening all over. The women have…gone crazy, somehow. ”
“I thought I was dead, that she was gonna kill me,” Harry was babbling, to them or himself they weren’t sure. “But she just sucked my…it was…terrifying, but it still felt… and I couldn’t fight it, and I…didn’t want to. Then I came, so hard, so much, and then I…I guess I passed out.”
The men fell silent. The TV was still on, the news anchor continuing:
“…live footage from our reporter on the scene. We must warn you, what you are about to see is very graphic. We go now to reporter Chuck Sanders.”
The scene changed, and they were looking at a street somewhere in the city. Smoke and flames filled the air; several buildings and at least two cars were on fire. The street was littered with bodies, all appearing to be male. As the camera panned, they could see more men getting blowjobs from women.
A voice, apparently that of the cameraman, spoke over the footage.
“Marty, it’s Leon. Chuck is…well, currently unavailable. It’s utter chaos here, but I’ll try to explain what we’ve seen so far. Wild, crazed packs of women have been attacking men and are somehow putting them in some kind of trance in order to, well, perform oral sex on them. It sounds crazy, I know, but you can clearly see it happening right here in the street.”
The camera zoomed in on a heavy set, middle-aged woman in a waitress uniform, sucking hungrily on the erect penis of a man in a black suit with a press lanyard around his neck. Apparently Chuck, the reporter, was indeed unavailable at the moment.
Next to them was another bizarre coupling; an elderly grandmother was sucking on a man who looked to be in his early twenties. The old woman was completely nude; her aged, wrinkled skin hanging off her almost skeletal frame. Her dentures had fallen from her mouth and lay on the sidewalk beside her scraped and bloody knees. Her haggard appearance apparently had no effect on her victims ability to achieve or maintain his erection.
The camera panned around again to show a large group of women approaching from up the street. Some were carrying weapons of various sorts; baseball bats, axes, a few had what appeared to be broken tree branches.
The cameraman’s voice continued.
“As you can see, whatever this is appears to have affected women of all ages, although we’ve seen no children affected, thank God. But otherwise it’s women of all ages, from everywhere. You can see a pack of them coming now. I’m going to find cover somewhere, hold on.”
The camera panned down and was shaking crazily as the cameraman ran. Then it lifted and refocused, now shooting through a window. He’d apparently ducked inside a storefront.
“OK, I’ve moved inside to stay out of sight, but I’ll continue to film for as long as I…”
Suddenly, several police cars drove into view, along with what looked like a SWAT van. There was a large spotlight on the roof that lit up, illuminating the scene.
Police stormed out of their vehicles and set up a perimeter. They were heavily armed, many wearing body armor. Another group of women rounded the corner from the side of the block and joined the mob already coming down the street. There appeared to be roughly sixty to a hundred of them.
The women were in various states of dress. Many were still in their Halloween costumes. Some were in their regular clothes, or work uniforms. Still others were in pajamas, and a few were in lingerie or nightgowns. Several were partially or fully nude.
The police threw tear gas into the crowd of women, to no effect. The deranged women were running now, charging the police line. Several officers up front drew their guns, then froze as the first wave of women fell upon them.
A few in the rear lines managed to get off shots, hitting at least one woman. Suddenly the officers stopped, and turned their weapons on each other. Several cops dropped at once as gunfire cracked. One officer turned his own gun to his head; moments later his brains exploded into the street.
Then the women were on them in force. They set about slaughtering the men, either with weapons or by hand. One woman leaped towards an officer who had fallen and was scrambling to get away. She pounced on him like a tiger, and ripped his jugular out with her teeth.
The police not being slaughtered were having their uniform pants ripped and torn to shreds, as women fought to be the first to take their engorged members in their mouth.
One brave officer tried to pull a chunky, red haired woman dressed as Velma off his partner, only to be attacked from behind by a tall, thin blonde dressed as Daphne. Grabbing him by the head, she twisted it, snapping his neck with a crack.
The image on the TV shook as the cameraman trembled with fear, but he continued to narrate the scene.
“I… I don’t know why this is happening. Those poor, brave officers are either being slaughtered or…raped. None of this makes any sense. I don’t know how the women are forcing them to…”
His voice ceased as a middle aged housewife of about forty-something walked directly into view, standing just outside the large plate glass window. Her voluminous breasts were bare, sprung free from her torn and frayed Marge Simpson costume. Her red and green eyes stared directly into the camera, and she sneered.
She disappeared from view and seconds later there was the sound of shattering glass. Then a high pitched scream.
The camera shook but remained upright for a few more moments before it slowly panned down.
The last image it showed before the feed cut off was the top of a blue bouffant wig and the shaft of a thick, uncut penis disappearing into a set of thin red lips.
——————————————————-
The screen went blank, then cut back to the news studio. The anchor was staring with shock into the camera. A voice from offscreen was heard. “We’re on.”
The anchor composed himself, taking a deep breath, then began.
“Ladies and gentlemen…or, I suppose if you’re watching this, I’m talking to only the men at this point…I have no words to ease the horror of what we just witnessed. Our thoughts and prayers go out to the families of those brave officers and to those of our reporting crew. Indeed, God help us all.”
A man stepped into frame and whispered something in the anchor’s ear. The anchor nodded, then addressed the camera again.
“We’re going to take a short break here for a few minutes. We apologize, but we’re…short staffed at the moment. We’ve just received several new reports and want to verify them before we report them. In the meantime, we ask you to please stand by, and remind you that law enforcement has requested that everyone remain indoors until further notice.”
The screen went blank, then read simply, “PLEASE STANDBY.”
Ben stood up, addressing the other two men. “Looks like we’re stuck here, at least for now. We can’t get back to town, and it looks like there’s no help there if we did. I’m going to go check our food and water supplies. Johnny, take a look around, see if we can find something to board up the doors and windows with. Harry, take a look outside, see what’s going on if you can. But don’t let them see you. See if any other men are out there still alive, maybe they’ve recovered like you did. If you see any, let us know. Maybe we can help them. But don’t open that fucking door until all of us are ready. For now, just check things out.” Without waiting for an answer, Ben was off to the kitchen.
Johnny started searching through the closets and found nothing. Then he remembered the basement. Tom kept a supply of tools and emergency supplies down there, including a backup generator and fuel. Johnny was heading towards the basement door when Harry’s voice from behind stopped him.
“There’s no other men out there, at least none that I can see,” Harry called out. “I wonder where they…wait…HELEN???”
Johnny turned back just in time to see Harry unlatch the door.
Ben burst into the room. “Harry, stop! What are you doing???”
“It’s…Helen,” Harry said weakly. “She’s out there. She’s…calling me. I have to go help her. I have to…”
Both Johnny and Ben rushed towards him. Neither were fast enough. With a twist of the knob, Harry was out the door and gone.
They could hear his voice calling out to his fiance as they reached the door. Harry was already halfway across the yard.
Helen was indeed there, surrounded by several other women. Harry slowed, but continued towards her. “Helen? Baby? It’s me. It’s Harry. Talk to me, baby, tell me what’s…”
Harry froze in his tracks as Helen fixed her gaze on him. Her face twisted in a sneer that could also have been a smile.
“It’s okay,” Harry thought. “If she wants to blow me again, it’s okay. She won’t hurt me, I know that now.”
Harry watched, frozen and helpless, as Helen dropped to her knees before him, once again pulling down his tattered shorts. His cock was already swollen and throbbing as she grabbed it roughly.
Helen looked away from him, grunted, and gestured with her hand. Another woman approached them; a young, slender blonde dressed as a Hooters girl. She certainly had the right assets for it. The nipples of her large, braless breasts poked through the now filthy fabric of her thin tank top. Her bare belly was showing, tight and firm. Harry couldn’t remember her name. Trisha? Maybe Tina? It didn’t matter. Her glowing green eyes fixed on Harry’s cock and she began to drool.
Dropping to her knees beside Helen, the blonde tilted her head as if in question. Helen grunted again, still holding Harry’s cock, and guided it towards the blonde’s mouth. The blonde began to suck eagerly, hungrily.
Harry’s mind swam in pleasure. Then it was gone. Somewhere he heard a scream. His last thought was that it might be his.
——————————————————-
Ben bolted the door again behind them.
They’d watched until they’d heard Harry scream, then collapse. His fiance and the young blonde that had joined her then lifted his unconscious body and carried it away, disappearing into the woods.
Ben wondered if that’s what had happened to the rest of the men he’d seen receiving the unnatural blowjobs earlier. He’d thought some had perhaps escaped off into the woods on their own, but it seemed less likely now after witnessing what happened to Harry.
After looking out the window one more time to make sure no women were approaching, Ben turned away and returned to the couch, shaking and exhausted.
Johnny took a chair across from him. “What…what do we do now?” he whispered.
Ben shook his head silently. For the first time since this insanity had started, he was at a loss. Hopeless.
The newscast, which had been silent for some time, suddenly started again. The image of the newsroom appeared once more, the anchorman back at his desk.
“We’re back on the air. Hopefully there are still some of you out there to hear this.
“We managed to get several reports in from various sources before all lines of communication went down. We’re not sure how much longer we will be able to broadcast, but we want to report what we’ve learned because we feel it’s important to do so.
“The mass assault and murder spree taking place is not an isolated incident. We’ve received confirmed reports from several of our sister stations across the east coast, including Philadelphia, New York, Boston and Washington DC. All have reported similar attacks in their areas.
“We have no news of our government making any moves to counter these attacks. We do know that local law enforcement in all areas have been doing all that they can, but many met the same fate of those you witnessed earlier in our broadcast.
“We honestly don’t have any more information to provide except what we have managed to piece together from video footage and eyewitness accounts. We feel this information, while inconclusive, is vital to pass along and may help prevent further loss of life.
“I’m afraid I’m going to have to use some sexually explicit language, but I doubt we’ll be fined by the FCC at this point.
“But these are the facts as we know them: Adult women of all ages appear to be attacking men explicitly for the purpose of performing oral sex. Their chosen victims are somehow entranced and unable to fight back against their attacker.
“The women, and this will sound crazy, I know, but we’ve confirmed this, have developed some form of mind control which freezes their chosen victim in place.
“We caution you to stay away from any woman performing oral sex on her victim and do not, repeat NOT try to interfere. Multiple eyewitness testimonies report seeing many men brutally murdered for trying to stop these women, often also causing the death of their victim by castration.
“There is also strong evidence suggesting that they can also control the minds of other men, especially those who try to attack or interfere, and cause them to freeze, self harm, or harm others.
“The women will latch on to their chosen victim and perform oral sex on them until the man reaches orgasm, and all evidence suggests the women are…swallowing his semen. Once their victim has ejaculated, the woman moves on, leaving the man unconscious but otherwise unharmed. We stress again, they leave their victims UNHARMED, unless interfered with.
“We’ve also received reports of men recovering from their sexual assaults and returning to a more or less normal state of mind, although some have been reported to have almost immediately gone off to seek another woman, actively offering themselves freely. Others have reported victims simply disappearing. Still other reports, unsubstantiated, have claimed to see unconscious men being carried off by the sex crazed women.
“Our advice again is to stay clear of ALL women you encounter, but especially any of those actively assaulting other men. Stay in your homes, do NOT venture out unless you absolutely have to.
“If you have a female family member in your household, keep her contained if possible, but do not try to physically restrain her. If she chooses you as a victim, our advice is DO NOT RESIST. Even if it is a close family member.
“All reports seem to confirm that the women do not become violent unless provoked. So do not interfere, even if it is incestuous. There is literally nothing you can do to prevent them from performing the sex act on you if chosen, and anyone who attempts to stop it does so at the risk of the victims life as well as their own.
“Lastly, this phenomenon appears to only be affecting fully matured adults. If you have any children with you, keep them home, keep them safe, and keep them away from…”
The screen suddenly filled with white snow. The signal was lost.
Ben snapped out of his haze. The news broadcasters had carried on as long as they could, perhaps still were carrying on and the signal loss was only local. Ben decided he would carry on too.
“I’m going to go back and inventory our supplies in the kitchen. Did you find anything to board up the doors and windows with? Johnny? Hey, Johnny, man, come on, snap out of it,” Ben addressed him firmly but kindly.
Johnny blinked, then spoke. “The basement. I was about to check the basement. Tom’s tools are down there. And a generator. And…fuel.” Johnny’s voice trailed off.
“Generator? That’s great news. Go check on that, and find those tools. Nails, hammers, any wood we can use. I’ll come down and help you in a couple minutes,” said Ben.
Johnny got to his feet, steadied himself, then headed down to the basement.
The basement was dark and musty. The only lighting came from a single, dusty bulb hanging from the rafters. It was a glorified crawl space really, tall enough for Johnny to stand without crouching, but just barely. The walls were faded red bricks, the floor a dirty, cracked concrete. But it had enough room to house the hot water tank, the HVAC unit, and the back up generator. There was also a small workbench and beside it, a large tool cabinet.
There was a fluorescent light fixture hanging above the workbench, and Johnny pulled it’s chain, giving him more light to see by as he searched the tool box and shelves that were mounted above the bench.
He found two large hammers and several boxes of nails, and was about to head back up the stairs when he remembered he wanted to check on the generator.
Putting the hammers and nails down on the bottom step, he crossed back to the far side of the basement where the small generator sat in a corner, along with two large fuel containers.
Johnny checked the fuel cans first; they both appeared to be full. Good, that would give them at least a few days worth of electricity should the main power go out.
He then checked the generator itself. It looked clean, and all the connections were good. He was familiar with how to operate and maintain it, having vacationed at the cabin many times over the years and dealing with the power outages caused by the occasional storm.
As he finished giving the generator the once over, he could feel the soft breeze of the chill fall air against the back of his neck, cooling his sweat.
A breeze. In a basement. With no windows.
Johnny jumped up straight to his feet, his head almost hitting the rafter above.
The bilco doors. The ones along the side of the cabin. Tom usually kept them chained and locked, and he had never thought to check them.
Johnny turned around slowly.
Barbara was there, standing at the bottom of the steep concrete steps that led up and out into the yard. She had come in so quietly that Johnny had heard nothing. Her long dark hair hung loose and unkempt around her face. She stood just outside of the circle of light cast by the overhead bulb, leaving her mostly in shadow.
Johnny gasped, but didn’t move. “Barb?” His voice was a cracked whisper. “Barbara? It’s me. It’s Johnny, your brother. Remember me?”
Barbara growled and stepped forward at the sound of his voice, becoming clearly visible in the dim light.
Other than her bloodshot eyes and glowing green irises, her face looked almost normal. Her mouth formed a sneer, but not nearly as animalistic as the other women Johnny had seen. Her growl didn’t feel like a threat so much as an acknowledgement.
Other than her hair and some smudging of her make-up, nothing looked all that out of place about her, except her breasts. Her Naughty Nurse costume had lost its battle to keep them contained, and they were now fully exposed.
Johnny had never fully seen his sister’s tits since they’d not just sprouted, but fully bloomed into the rounded, firm beauties now prominently displayed before him.
If someone had asked Johnny if he’d ever thought of his sister sexually, he would have denied it, and he would have even believed himself.
But as she stood before him now, with her beautiful if slightly dirty hair framing her high cheek boned face, her eyes, albeit strangely colored, glaring at him lustfully, and her voluptuous, smooth, fully rounded breasts with their large, puffy pink nipples pointing at him, Johnny felt those lustful, dark thoughts that all men with attractive female relatives bury deep inside their subconscious now arise.
His cock was already throbbing in his pants.
Barbara continued her slow, stalking approach. Johnny didn’t fight it. He couldn’t, even if he wanted to.
Her eyes never left his frozen face as she got on her knees. There was no tearing or clawing as Barbara undid his belt, unbuttoned his trousers, and slid them down along with his underwear. His erection sprang free like a springboard.
While unable to move his body, Johnny’s mind was still fully aware of everything. He found himself wanting to see, to watch his own sister wrap her red, pouty lips around his cock and perform the forbidden act. He tried to tilt his head downwards, and, to his shock and delight, found that he could. Perhaps Barb had somehow sensed his desire and allowed it.
Barbara was just about to take him into her mouth when she tensed and growled, turning towards the sound of feet coming down the wooden basement steps.
Ben stood there, jaw agape, frozen almost midstep.
Barb growled at him again, louder. A warning signal this time.
Ben put both hands in the air. He spoke softly and slowly. “Barbara, right? We met earlier. Ben, remember? I’m not going to interfere, okay? I don’t want to hurt you. You don’t want to hurt me. And you really don’t want to hurt your brother Johnny, right?”
Barbara fixed Ben with her gaze, growled again, softer this time.
Ben spoke again. “I’m going to go back upstairs now. I’m going to take these tools with me, ok? But I’ll leave you alone. I won’t interfere. Just…don’t hurt him. Please.”
Ben bent slowly and picked up the hammers and nails. He straightened up, then looked back at them, this time addressing Johnny.
“Johnny, I don’t know if you can hear me, man. But if you can: don’t fight it. Don’t resist her. Remember your sister loves you, no matter how…strange this will be for you. Maybe if you focus on that, this won’t be so bad. Maybe you’ll even…enjoy it. I dunno. Let yourself enjoy it, if you can. I’ll be here when…when it’s over.”
With that, he turned and made his way back up the stairs. Johnny heard the door close softly.
Barbara turned her attention back to Johnny. Her hand wrapped itself around his shaft. Her alien eyes met his unblinking ones as she took his swollen head between her lips.
Johnny had heard Ben. Had heard every word. And he had no intentions of resisting his beautiful, loving sister.
Barbara engulfed his cock deep into the back of her throat. He watched, fascinated, as she deep-throated him like no woman had ever done. Johnny was only of average size, but none of his previous girlfriends had ever taken more than half of his shaft. Barb, however, was swallowing him whole with every thrust of her head. She growled and grunted as she did, but never gagged.
Drool ran from both sides of her mouth, dripping down onto her swaying breasts and pooling in her cleavage.
While certainly not tender, the blowjob was far less savage than Johnny had expected. Perhaps it was because he wasn’t fighting it, not even mentally. Or perhaps it was because part of his sister was still in there, somewhere, and she still loved him enough to want him to feel pleasure, not pain or fear.
Johnny hoped she knew he still loved her, too. “Love you, Barb,” he thought.
He heard Barbara’s voice in his head. “Love…you. Feed…me.”
His last coherent thought before he ejaculated deep into her throat was, “I’m cumming for you, Barbara.”
——————————————————-
When Johnny awoke, it was daylight. He was still in the basement, laying on the cold concrete floor. He could see the sunlight streaming in from the still open bilco doors.
He stood up, groggy, but otherwise feeling okay. He looked down at his still exposed penis. It was covered in saliva and cum and red lipstick. His sister’s lipstick.
“Barbara?” he called softly, looking around. She was gone.
Johnny adjusted his pants, and wondered randomly where his coat had gone. He didn’t remember taking it off.
Johnny went over and closed the bilco doors, latching them. He’d have to find another lock later. Then he turned and made his way up the basement stairs.
As he came around the hallway corner and entered the living room, he noticed several windows had been boarded up.
He saw Ben seated on the couch. His pants were down around his ankles. Barbara was on her knees between his legs.
Johnny felt a sudden, irrational jealousy. He stepped towards them, then stopped.
Barbara lifted her head and turned to face Johnny. Ben’s massive, swollen cock held tight in her hand, covered in spit.
Barb didn’t growl, but her eyes fixed on Johnny’s, and he felt her in his head again. “Love you. Hungry.” Her voice echoed in his mind.
Johnny understood. She couldn’t help it, he realized. Whatever force was compelling her to do this was beyond her control. He could almost feel her craving, her hunger, her NEED.
Then the connection was broken, and he found he could once again move, and speak.
Johnny raised his hands and stepped back. “It’s okay, Barb. I love you too. Ben, I know you can hear me. You were right. Don’t fight it. Relax, and enjoy it. It’s okay, man. I won’t interfere.”
Johnny walked slowly towards a chair. “Barb?” he asked, “If it’s okay with you, I’m just going to sit here, and…watch. If that’s okay.”
Barb made a small grunt in reply, then went back to sucking Ben’s cock.
Johnny sat quietly and watched his sister work Ben’s shaft with methodical precision. Johnny’s eyes wandered across her body. Her breasts were swaying freely as she rocked back and forth, working Ben’s long member deep into her throat.
Her round, upthrust ass was fully exposed beneath her short skirt, and Johnny noticed with an almost horrific pleasure that she wasn’t wearing panties. Her delicate, butterfly-like labia were drooling almost as much as her mouth was, and the smell of her sex wafted through the air.
Johnny inhaled her scent, and wondered what it would be like to taste her. He wondered if she’d lost the panties at some point last night, or if she’d never bothered wearing any to begin with.
He thought about their long car ride here, and the fact that she might have been without panties under that tiny costumed skirt the entire time.
He thought about all of this while he watched his all but naked sister deep throat the cock of a man who was, until last night, a stranger to both of them.
He felt his own cock harden.
Johnny found himself smiling as he removed his pants and underwear and sat back again, fully nude from the waist down.
His erection swayed, begging for attention, but Johnny ignored it.
He would save it for Barbara.
Because she might still be…hungry.

Epilogue:
Scientists eventually figured out what you, along with Johnny, had already deduced: that the comet was responsible. While unable to examine any live women, the corpses of several killed during the riots and fighting that broke out during the first few days were rounded up and found to have trace amounts of the same radiation left behind by the comet. Although why it affected only females, only adult females, and why it affected them with such a bizarre and specific sexual craving was never determined.
As you may have also guessed, the phenomenon was world wide. The comet, if indeed that’s what it actually was, had done a complete orbit around the earth before once again heading off into the vast reaches of space from where it had come.
Millions of men died within the first few days. As word slowly spread about the dangers of trying to stop the women from their obscene sex acts, there were less casualties, at least from attempting vainly to fight the women off, or prevent them from sucking their chosen victim.
But the body count rose in other ways. Men fought and killed each other over food and supplies and shelter. Still more committed suicide rather than submit to the oral cravings of the maddened women, especially if the woman in question was a beloved family member.
Females too young to have been affected by the alien radiation were rounded up by the adult women and spirited away, many simply disappearing from their homes in the middle of the night. There was much speculation about the reasons for this, although the truth was that it was to protect them and allow them to safely grow into adult women who would eventually become part of the herd.
Young males and children, while ignored by the women, often died from starvation, exposure, accidents, or various other causes.
Supply chains were broken, all communications were cut off, and blackouts happened worldwide as fuel supplies dwindled and power stations failed.
Millions more died in the colder climes as winter came with a vengeance.
By the time spring rolled around in the northern half of the western hemisphere, more than half of the male population of planet Earth was dead.
Many of the surviving men found themselves captives of sorts, as large herds of women claimed various territories.
The men were allowed to roam freely for the most part, hunting and gathering, or working together to rebuild what they could, and simply resigned themselves to being subject to what eventually became known as “the Cumlust.” Whenever a woman approached them, they complied without objection, allowed themselves to be sucked off, then went about their business after they’d recovered.
Few men ever attempted more. Those stupid enough to try and rape the women quickly found themselves either castrated or eviscerated.
As the years went on, they slowly began to rebuild society, although nothing like it had been.
The women allowed the men more freedom to travel outside the confines of their communities. Electricity was restored in some of the larger towns, although it was used sparingly and only for essential needs.
Trade routes were established and resources shared. There were no wars or skirmishes over territory or supplies; the women simply wouldn’t allow it, and the men quickly learned that survival meant working together in peace.
How long they’d survive was anyone’s guess. Old age took some, illness and disease still more. Those with medical training did what they could of course, and hospitals were even reopened in many areas. But not all who needed them had access.
The true nail in the coffin for humanity came with the realization that, since sexual intercourse for the purposes of procreation was simply no longer an option, there would be no more children born.
From time to time, men from various communities would travel to others, sharing news they’d gathered along the way as well as negotiating trade deals etc. There were many wild rumors and unsubstantiated reports.
Some told of seeing herds of women hunting animals, some with guns, some with arrows or knives. There was much talk over whether the women were hunting for their skins, or if they were now eating more than human semen.
Other reports told of herds ranging in the hundreds of thousands taking over the major cities long since abandoned by men. Some claimed to see electric lights on in the buildings, and smoke rising up in the sky from factories once long empty.
The wildest rumor to circulate throughout almost all communities was that the women had taken over all of the advanced scientific research facilities around the world and were now working on a way to clone themselves, or to clone men, depending on which version you heard. None of this was ever confirmed by anyone of course, but it widely became regarded as fact.
Because how else would the women survive once the male population died off?
The truth was much simpler than that of course.
There was a famous quote from a famous movie that would eventually be forgotten, as all movies were as the decades passed:
“Life…finds a way.”
The men had forgotten about evolution.
They’d forgotten about mutations.
They’d forgotten about hermaphrodites, species that had evolved to have both male and female sex organs.
They had forgotten about asexual reproduction.
Because even the smartest of them couldn’t imagine a world where the females had evolved beyond the need for men, a world in which they would eventually become irrelevant.
They couldn’t possibly imagine, even as it was happening, their own extinction.

Authors Afterwards:
I must, of course, give all due respect to the legendary George Romero. Fans of Night Of The Living Dead may recognize several character names.
I also must give a nod to the 1984 cult classic Night Of The Comet.
I have a perfectly logical explanation for why the women needed to consume semen, but I intentionally left it out, although I hint at it at the end. If you think you know, go ahead and leave it in the comments.
If you don’t, don’t think too hard about it.
Because the simpler explanation is that I came up with the title first, then needed a premise to fit it.
