Description
It looks like Asuka is learning the hard way not to piss off the people responsible for her new life. Whenever she fights back, disobeys an order, or her nurse is in a crappy mood that day, she will be put into a maximum-security leather straitsuit and forced to wear a gas mask as punishment. Movement in these restraints is close to impossible, so the chances of Asuka getting herself an early release are basically zero. All Asuka can do is sit back and try to calm down.

Knowing Asuka, that might take a while.

This is a drawing I had commissioned to go along with my story "The Curse of Eva". You can read the relevant chapter here: The Curse of Eva: Part 3,Needless to say, Asuka wasn’t able to escape from her straitjacket. A couple hours later, the guards entered her cell, just like the nurse had promised. Upon seeing them, Asuka started thrashing around.“MMMPPPH!” she screamed as they approached.During the hours she had spent alone in her cell, it became clear that it was impossible to get out of this straitjacket on her own, despite having the keys to her restraints sitting in her front pocket. As Asuka slowly realized that there was no way to avoid the ‘punishment’ the nurse had planned for her, she grew more and more afraid. A deep fear gripped her stomach. She really, really didn’t want to find out what they had in store for her. And now that the guards were here, it felt like all her worst fears were coming true.The group of four guards quickly surrounded her. Asuka’s eyes darted left and right, trying to guess which one of them would make the first move. She tried kicking at the one by her feet, only for him to easily dodge her strikes. He grabbed her by the ankles, holding her legs in place, and she cried out in surprise. With her lower half immobilized, two of the others quickly moved in and grabbed hold of her arms. She struggled against their grip, futilely trying to shake them off. “MMMM! MMHHHHH!!!” Her cries were getting more and more desperate as they easily overpowered her. Tears began welling up in the corners of her eyes.But even still, she kept on fighting, all the while ignoring the chain between her legs. Whether she was doing this out of stubborness, anger, or fear, she didn’t know. And frankly, she didn’t care. All she was hoping for was to shake out of one of the guards’s grips and hit one of the bastards with an elbow or kick, consequences be damned. They were going to punish her anyway, how much worse could it get?Unfortunately, despite Asuka’s struggles (and she did struggle hard), she wasn’t able to land a blow on any of the guards. Despite all this, she fought to the bitter end, not even stopping when she saw the final guard pull out a small gas mask. Even as the mask was pressed against her face, she was still thrashing in their grips. It was only when gas from a small cylinder was released into it that the intensity of her struggles died down. Her eyes drooped close and her body went limp in their arms.-----“Mmmmmmmmm,” Asuka mumbled as she finally woke up. The first thing she noticed was that she was sitting up, her head sinking into the soft padding of her cell. The guards must have leaned her against the wall while she was unconscious. The first thing she did was try to look around, only to find her vision was a bit blurrier than she remembered. It took a couple seconds to realize that she was looking through the lenses of a gas mask. Now that Asuka thought about it, she could feel straps pulled tight all around her head, digging into her scalp. The gas mask was probably covering her entire face, considering she could feel the leather tickling her forehead. And judging by the fact she couldn’t open her mouth, and she could still feel the sticky adhesive against her skin, Asuka guessed they hadn’t removed the gimp mask either.She groaned as she tried to lift herself off the wall, finding it a lot harder than she expected. A quick glance down told her why. Instead of the orange fabric of her jumpsuit, she only saw black leather covering her body from the neck down.“Mmmmmm!” she yelped, as she realized she was stuck in a thick leather straitsuit.Her arms were neatly folded against her chest, even if Asuka could barely see them from this angle, and her legs were crushed together into a single limb by a built-in legbinder with multiple belts tightened around it. It was way more restrictive than her jumpsuit. She could barely move in this thing. As she tried, she became aware of something else about her predicament, something that made her face flush red behind the gas mask.She was naked.Underneath the straitjacket, Asuka could only feel the touch of leather against her bare skin. Her jumpsuit was nowhere to be found.The guards! They must have stripped her when she was unconscious. The thought of them standing over her naked body, while she was dressed only in that infuriating gimp mask, was almost too much to bear. Some of them were probably getting off on the sight of her too. She guessed at least one of them was perverted enough to do that.Asuka tried to calm herself down. It was… hard, but eventually, she managed to do it. She then started trying to move again. After a few minutes, and quite a bit of effort, she managed to get herself off the wall and sit up straight. Leaning back against the padding, she realized she had no idea where her cell door was anymore. The padding that lined the inside was blending in with the padding lining the rest of the cell. She didn’t know which corner the guards had moved her to either.Almost completely immobilized by her bondage and not even knowing where the exit was, escape seemed impossible to Asuka. This must be her punishment for fighting back earlier: being stuck in a max-security straitjacket suit and gas mask. Asuka tried to struggle, but her efforts amounted to little when even moving was hard. She tried to be optimistic. At least they hadn’t taken her sight when punishing her.Of course, that also meant they still had ways to punish her further, but Asuka didn’t care. Her sight and comfort didn’t matter when her dignity was on the line.If anyone could get out of this, it was her. This… It wasn’t fair. She saved the world, stopped the Third Impact, and this was her reward: being trapped in a blacksite asylum for the rest of her life, however long that was. It just wasn’t! It wasn’t!Asuka tried to focus on the sounds of the valves opening and closing in her gas mask. With it covering her face, and her arms trapped in the sleeves of the straitjacket, it was impossible to wipe away the tears that were starting to well up in her eyes. She was better than this! She didn’t deserve this! This wasn’t right!No, she… she had to focus on something else. They only won if they broke her, right? Denying them that victory was the first step to getting out of here. She couldn’t show any weakness. She couldn’t let them see her cry. She couldn’t rely on anyone but herself.Not Shinji, not Misato, and not Rei.Just like before.After so long, Asuka really thought she had changed. She thought that she was no longer the same as the girl who arrived at the GeoFront and met Shinji 6 years ago. That wasn’t her anymore! She tried to find something else to think about. The thought that she had gone back to being that old person so easily was more than a little horrifying. She thought she had conquered those demons a long time ago.But unfortunately, stuck in a padded cell with no distractions, her mind kept running back to those thoughts. So, she did the only thing she could in her current situation.Struggle.She kicked and thrashed, as though she had the strength to rip herself out of her restraints. Her body rocked from side to side as she tried whatever she could to undo the straitjacket’s tight grip. She didn’t even care about escaping the leather restraint. Just loosening one strap would be enough.Eventually, her struggles became so fierce that she tipped herself over, only realizing her mistake too late. She fell onto her side, landing on the padded floor with a soft thud. Asuka screamed in frustration. With how hard it had been to sit up earlier, she had the sinking feeling that she would be spending the next couple hours lying on the floor… at least. To be honest, she wasn’t even sure she could get herself back up from this position.Asuka rolled onto her back and started fuming. Despite her best attempts, all she really managed to accomplish was make her situation even more miserable. She had worked up a sweat in her struggles, causing the leather of her straitjacket to stick to her skin. And even though she didn’t need to breathe anymore, her mask would only allow her to take in so much air with each breath. She hadn’t noticed it when she was just sitting in her straitjacket, but now, after she started struggling, it was hard to ignore. The worst part was that she hadn’t managed to loosen even that one strap.Staring up at the padded ceiling, Asuka noticed the single light illuminating her cell. The way it was looking down on her pissed her off, like it was sarcastically complimenting her for getting out of the straitjacket; taunting her with the idea that it would be the closest thing she had to the sun from now on, since she would never see the outside world again.With no nurse and no guards, Asuka had to take her frustrations out on something. She lobbed a few curses in her head at the fluorescent bulb, some of them in German, before she realized just how childish she was being. She instead started imagining bad things happening to her captors to calm herself down. Peters. The nurse. Those guards. They would eventually pay for what they did. At least, that’s what she hoped. The thought was like a warm blanket for her mind.Asuka accepted that she wasn’t getting out of her leather straitjacket. It was too strong and too tight. For now, her best bet was to wait until she was put into something less restrictive and try to escape then. There was nothing she could do right now, not even resist in order to get back at her captors.Speaking of her captors, when were they planning to let her out of this thing? It only now occurred to Asuka that, since she no longer needed food, water, or to use the toilet, there was no reason to take her out of any of her restraints. She doubted they would go so far as to leave her stuck in this straitsuit for the rest of her life, considering how the orange jumpsuit seemed to be made to her exact measurements, but how long was she supposed to spend bound like this before her punishment was over?It couldn’t be more than a day. Could it?Could it?-----Asuka spent 3 days alone in her padded cell before the door opened again. At least, she thought it was 3 days. It felt longer and, to be honest, it might have been. With no windows in her cell, she had no way to tell the time. The best she could do was count the number of times the light in her cell would turn off to allow her to get some rest. She had counted 3, but even then, she wasn’t completely sure. It was easy to lose track of time and counts stuck all alone in a padded cell. And maybe the amount of time between her periods of rest changed too? Or the lights weren’t even following a 24-hour schedule?Either way, she had become so lonely and bored lying on the padded floor that a part of her was almost thankful to see the guards again. They entered her cell just like before and hooked up another small canister to her gas mask. The last thing Asuka remembered before passing out was the sweet smell of the knockout gas.-----Asuka woke back up to the sound of wheels rolling across the floor and to the dizzying sensation of movement all around her. Having been stuck in a padded room for the past few days, seeing the cell doors pass by was almost overwhelming. Even though her mind was still recovering from the drugs, she quickly realized that she was strapped to a dolly cart and was being pushed down a hallway, probably by one of the guards or nurses.Where she was going, Asuka didn’t know. And frankly, part of her didn’t want to know. Wherever it was, it probably wasn’t anywhere good.Taking note of her position, Asuka realized her arms were crossed over her chest, meaning she was probably in another straitjacket. She couldn’t feel the sticky leather of the gimp mask but there was something in her mouth, so they had likely changed her gag too. She couldn’t see herself, so she didn’t know what her new gag looked like, but she doubted it looked more embarrassing than the gimp mask.As she shifted around in her restraints, not bothering to try escaping yet, she realized that they felt strangely familiar. Almost comforting, in a way. She glanced down and found herself looking at her old plugsuit.No, not exactly.The red latex-like material hugged her body the same way it had before, but tilting her head forward, she realized that a few adjustments had been made to the suit, the most obvious being it was now a straitjacket. The sleeves had been modified to connect together behind her back. One strap running over her chest and two wrapped around her biceps kept her arms locked in place in a tight self-hug. A built-in strap around her ankles kept them fused together and two more straps had been added to further secure her legs. Seeing her classic plugsuit turned into just another restraint disgusted Asuka, but it also raised a few questions. Why was she dressed like this? There were no more Evas to pilot, so why would she be wearing this?“Mmmm?” She tried getting some answers from whoever was pushing her, but they didn’t bother responding. Not even a dismissive murmur to tell who they were.Asuka tried glancing back to see them, but gave up after her 4th failed attempt to do so. She just sighed and waited for the journey to be over.Eventually, she was wheeled into a room and the gurney came to a stop. Unable to move much of her body, Asuka looked around, taking in her new surroundings instead. There was a metal table in the center of the room, around which a few men in lab coats were gathered. NERV Doctors. Ritsuko’s replacements now that she was trapped in a government blacksite somewhere, probably stuck in similar restraints to Asuka’s own. Between two of the doctors was a face Asuka recognized.Wonder Girl.Asuka huffed as she laid eyes on her fellow former pilot. Rei’s restraints weren’t that much different from her own, a straitjacket version of her white plugsuit. However, Asuka could tell that, between the two, Rei had an easier time with the guards. Probably on account of being the perfect little suck-up. Typical Rei. She was gagged with a white muzzle gag that matched the styling of her plugsuit. Asuka guessed she was wearing the exact same kind, except hers was red and orange instead of white and blue. She wondered what sort of useless thing Rei would say to her in that annoying monotone voice of hers if the gag hadn’t been there. Unlike Asuka, Rei wasn’t bound to any handcart, instead being held in place by two guards, though from the dolly sitting in the corner, she had probably been brought here the same way as Asuka.Again, Asuka wondered what she was doing here. It had to be something important, considering the doctors and Rei. Her instincts told her this was some kind of test. She was experienced enough to recognize a NERV experiment on pilots.As the door closed shut behind her, the guards started undoing the straps keeping her connected to the dolly cart. Once they were done, they lifted her off of it and set her down on the floor, holding her in place much like Rei. From her new perspective, she noticed one of the room’s walls had a large mirror set into it, no doubt made of one-way glass and with an observation room behind it.“Hello, ladies,” she heard a voice say, coming through the speakers in the room. It was female. Asuka guessed it belonged to a scientist around Ritsuko’s age. “My name is Dr. Kaga. As you’ve probably guessed, you’ve been brought here for an experiment. You two are incredible specimens and we intend to study you both thoroughly. Our first experiment will be to see what physical effects are produced when the two of you are kept in close contact with one another.” Asuka imagined Dr. Kaga behind the pane of one-way glass, staring at her and Rei the way she looked at a lab rat. Was that all she was in this place? A prisoner to be locked away and a guinea pig to be tested on? As Dr. Kaga continued to speak, the other NERV doctors left the room, leaving her and Rei with just the guards. Asuka felt the grip on her upper arms tighten each time the door opened. “Your plugsuits have sensors built into them to monitor things like heart rate, blood flow, and breathing,” the doctor explained. “As your bodies are no longer completely human, we have no idea how they will react to even normal stimuli, much less another being like itself. We intend to be very thorough in our testing. I hope you both can understand that. And I hope you both know that you are doing a great service to humanity. You are our best chance at unlocking the secrets of immortality.”The microphone turned off. If Asuka hadn’t been gagged, she probably would have tried spitting at the large mirror. A great service to humanity? The same humanity that locked her up after she’d saved its sorry ass? That one? Asuka wanted to scream at the doctors, which she probably would have done if the guards hadn’t suddenly lifted her up and started carrying her to the center of the room, making her yell at them instead. They set her down on her feet right beside the metal table, facing Rei, who had also been brought over and was now standing about a foot away from her. Asuka watched as one of the guards holding Rei upright let go of her the same moment she felt the grip on one of her own arms disappear.Then, the strangest thing happened. The strap holding her arms together behind her back loosened. The other guard guided her hands out through the loop on her chest and held them straight forward. Asuka didn’t know how to react. She had spent the past week (maybe even longer) so thoroughly bound that the slightest bit of freedom was enough to shock her. It made what came next a lot easier.Suddenly, Asuka felt herself lifted up and forward as the same was done to Rei. Their latex-clad bodies were forced tight together, breasts pressing against breasts and crotch rubbing against crotch. “MMMNNN!!!” she shouted as her body met Rei’s, the sensation bringing her back to reality. Before she could even react, much less try to struggle, the guard in front of her grabbed her arms and connected the sleeves of her straitjacket behind Rei’s back, as Rei’s arms were connected behind Asuka’s own. Both girls' arms were secured, forcing them to hug each other tight.It happened so quickly and efficiently that it took Asuka a few seconds to realize what had been done to them. As soon as she did though, she instinctively tried to struggle, only to immediately stop once she felt her body rub against Rei’s. Her face turned as red as her plugsuit as she realized the embarrassing situation she was now stuck in. She and Rei were trapped together, arms wrapped around each other in a lover’s embrace. And unfortunately, things were only going to get more embarrassing for her.Asuka tried to turn her head to yell some profanities at the guards. At least, that’s what she told herself. The real reason was so she wouldn’t have to look at Rei. As she did, all the while trying to fight back her embarrassment, the guards started undoing the straps going around their legs. Each one was connected to its twin on the other pilot, creating long straps that wrapped around both girls' ankles, calves, and thighs. The guards worked their way up, and as each one was tightened, it brought the two test subjects closer and closer together. Asuka squealed as the final strap was pulled taut, forcing her and Rei’s crotches snug against one another.The guards took advantage of her shock. One of them grabbed her by the armpits as the other grabbed her ankles, easily lifting her and Rei up and setting the two of them down on the metal table, Rei on top and Asuka on the bottom. Asuka groaned as she felt the weight of her fellow pilot suddenly press down on her. The guards quickly grabbed some straps connected to the table and ran them over Rei’s back.The sound of Rei’s moaning brought Asuka back to reality. As the guards tightened the straps, forcing Rei even tighter against her and pinning the two of them to the metal table, Asuka turned her head toward the one-way mirror. The two pilots were so close together that, as she did, she felt Rei’s short hair brush against the side of her face.“Phhhrrrmmm!” she yelled at the scientists she knew were watching.That’s all they were, just a bunch of perverts. Whatever scientific reason they claimed to have for doing this didn’t matter. Asuka couldn’t see any good reason for strapping her and Rei together like this… besides giving the people behind the one-way mirror something to get off to. She got even angrier as she realized they were probably filming this too. They probably wanted to have video of her and Rei in this compromising situation for their “personal use” later. She also guessed that her being stuck on the bottom was no accident, but was intended to further humiliate her.The guards finished tightening the last strap, ensuring that she and Rei were well-secured to the table. Once they were done, they left the room. Asuka made sure to throw a few insults at them on their way out.Even though the guards were gone, and she and Rei were apparently alone, Asuka didn’t quiet down. She kept looking at the one-way mirror and kept calling the scientists no doubt watching her that word, adding in several other names to go along with it. She did whatever she could to avoid having to face her fellow pilot, like her not being able to see Rei meant she wasn’t actually stuck in this humiliating position, even if she could feel Rei’s body pressing against her. Eventually though, Asuka’s voice grew hoarse from the constant shouting and she stopped. But still, she avoided looking at Rei. Asuka didn’t know if she would be able to handle the embarrassment of having to look into her fellow pilot’s eyes as she was stuck beneath her. She also didn’t want to let Rei know what she was feeling.She knew Rei was there. She could see the two of them wrapped in their lover’s embrace in the mirror. She could hear the sound of her breathing right in her ear, so loud that it seemed like Rei was doing it through a megaphone. She could feel Rei’s warm breath on her cheek whenever her fellow pilot exhaled and their stomachs met whenever she breathed in. Asuka held on for as long as she could, but eventually, her neck got sore from being constantly twisted to the side. Slowly, she turned back to face Rei. Their gazes met for an instant and Asuka saw her own feelings reflected back at her in her fellow pilot’s eyes. In them, she could see embarrassment, fear, and… arousal? She immediately looked away and her cheeks once again flushed red.Asuka hated to admit it, but being bound up like this was turning her on. Underneath the latex and her fellow pilot, her body was getting very warm. It was probably because she had spent so much time in her cell, feeling nothing but padding and her various restraints, that the rush of stimulation by having Rei’s body pressed tight against hers was overwhelming. Knowing that Rei was feeling the same way only made the humiliation worse. She wondered what must be going through her fellow pilot’s mind, what she must be thinking seeing the brash and confident Asuka shying away like some reluctant lover.She hated it! She hated feeling this way! She hated being treated like this! This wasn’t how she was supposed to be!It took a while before Asuka worked up the courage to once again look Rei in the eyes. Her fellow pilot’s gaze was soft, almost like she was trying to comfort Asuka. Like she was trying to tell her things were going to be okay even though they weren’t. Staring at each other, their eyes locked together, both girls’ cheeks shone a bright red. Their faces were so close together that, to someone observing, it might have looked like they were about to pull in for a passionate kiss. Even Rei seemed to realize how embarrassing the situation was, considering the way the normally-stoic pilot was blushing. It was more emotion than Asuka had seen from her during the entire time they’d spent fighting the Angels together, and it made Asuka uncomfortable enough that she momentarily forgot about her restraints and tried to shift herself away from Rei. She immediately realized her mistake as her breasts and crotch rubbed against Rei’s, sending a jolt of arousal through her body and causing Rei to move herself in response. Moans escaped from both girls’ lips as their bodies grinded against each other. Thankfully, Asuka was able to stop herself from reacting to Rei’s movement, bringing the cycle to an end before it took both of them over the edge. Asuka looked Rei in the eye and they silently agreed not to struggle and to avoid any unnecessary movement from now on. Asuka just laid there. Seeing the two of them rubbing against each other and getting off was probably exactly what the scientists wanted, and Asuka was committed to denying them that pleasure. There was nothing else she could do.It wasn’t much, but at least it gave her something to focus on.-----Once again, Asuka had no idea how long she’d spent in her current restraints. She couldn’t even tell how long it felt compared to her time in the leather straitjacket due to Rei constantly distracting her. Despite their best attempts, avoiding all unnecessary movement turned out to be impossible. Even though they’d agreed not to struggle, and both kept to that agreement, their bodies would occasionally rub together anyways. Asuka guessed Rei’s hands were sore from being constantly pinned under Asuka’s back. Whenever it happened, they would try to hold back their grunts and moans, but some would still slip out from behind their gagged lips. But still, she and Rei had avoided falling over the edge of pleasure, and that was what mattered most. They had kept their dignity. The way Asuka looked at it, that was the only thing they both had left in this place.It had been awkward. On more than one occasion, Rei had fallen asleep on top of her, resting her head against Asuka’s own. Asuka just had to endure the humiliation that came with those times, as she didn’t want to startle her fellow pilot by waking her up and cause her to rub her body against Asuka. And, just as many times, Asuka had woken up to find Rei staring down at her, already awake.Eventually, it ended the same way everything else did in this place. Some guards entered the room, knocked the two pilots out, and when Asuka woke back up, she found herself back in her original jumpsuit straitjacket, wrapped in chains and being dragged to her cell. The drugs they had used on her still hadn’t worn off, so even if she wanted to struggle, she wouldn’t have been able to. Waking up, feeling her feet dragging across the floor as two guards carried her by the armpits, she was almost thankful that she could barely move. It gave her a reason not to struggle. Asuka didn’t want to admit it to herself, but despite how much she hated the people who did this to her and how much she wanted to make them pay for everything they‘d done, she didn’t know if she wanted to fight back anymore. By her guess, she had just spent an entire week or more being punished for doing exactly that. The tight grip of the leather straitjacket, along with the humiliation of Rei’s body pressing against hers, was still fresh in her memory. If fighting back meant being treated like this, was it really worth it to struggle?Asuka squeezed her eyes shut, as though she was trying to push those thoughts back to the dark recesses of her mind from where they came. It had only been a single week by her guess, and she didn’t know how many months or years she had left in this place. I can’t let them break me so easily! I’m better than this! Am I?No, I can’t think like this. I am better. I’m Asuka Langley Sohryu! I’m the best damn Eva pilot in the world! I saved humanity!That was what she told herself again and again, trying to shout down any competing arguments. After a while, she declared herself the victor in her little debate. She wouldn’t let them take her dignity. She told herself that, had she not been drugged, she’d be struggling against her captors. Despite the punishments they had in store for her, she would be kicking and screaming as they dragged her down the hall.At least, that’s what she told herself.The guards suddenly stopped in front of one of the many identical metal doors lining the hallway. Even with her enhanced eyesight, Asuka had no idea how they could tell which one was her cell. One of the guards held her upright as the other unlocked the cell door. Asuka used the opportunity to take one last look at her surroundings. She had no idea how long it would be before she was let out again, and even grey hallways were a nice change of scenery compared to constant white padded walls.As they carried her inside, Asuka noticed that some changes had been made to her cell while she was gone. A mattress now lay in the far right corner of the room. Unfortunately, it wasn’t out of any kindness from her captors. Asuka could immediately tell due to the large amount of chains attached to the bedding and the gas mask sitting beside it.The guards brought her over and laid her down on the mattress. Without saying a word, they started passing the chains over her body, pulling them tight before securing them with padlocks. In some places, they connected them to the chains already wrapped around her as part of her jumpsuit. When the guards were done, Asuka could once again barely move. Her bindings were so tight that they were compressing her into the mattress. The guards pressed the gas mask against her face and secured it with the built-in straps before leaving her alone.When Asuka heard the cell door close, she guessed that her captors were finished with her. For now, at least. She sighed as she stared up at the padded ceiling, thankful that she was just bound, instead of also being subjected to more humiliation.Eventually, the drugs wore off. Asuka used the opportunity to test her new bindings. She already knew there was no way out, but she still wanted to make sure. All she managed to do was tease herself with the chain running between her legs.Unable to move, Asuka quickly grew bored. It turned out that white ceilings weren’t very interesting. With nothing else to do, she began to contemplate her fate.Was this what her life amounted to now? Where the thing she could most look forward to was just being bound? Asuka dreaded such an existence. She squeezed her eyes shut to hold back tears. She wouldn’t start crying. Not now. Not when they could be watching. She still had her dignity. They hadn’t taken that from her yet. They hadn’t broken her.They hadn’t.I’m better than this! I am!She kept repeating that to herself, over and over again like a mantra. After a while, the words ceased to mean anything, but that didn’t make her stop. Giving herself something to focus on had helped her before when she was stuck here by herself and when she was with Rei. It had gotten her through those tough times, and it would help her get through this one.But this time was different, even if Asuka didn’t realize it right away. As her mind repeated those words, her body unconsciously began to tug at the chains holding her in the exact same rhythm. The metal chain rubbed against and dug into her crotch. Asuka was so focused on insisting she was better than her captors that she didn’t notice the pleasure building up inside her, but eventually, the chain between her legs became too hard to ignore.W-Wait! Why am I horny?! Am I… enjoying this?NO! NO NO NO!Alone and close to the edge, Asuka had no idea where to go. Despite all the focus she put into keeping her dignity, her mind was lost in a haze of pleasure. Part of her wanted to stop, Asuka could feel that part screaming at her right now. It told her that letting herself finish would be letting her captors win, and how could she be better than them if they beat her? Deep down, Asuka knew this part was right, but another voice was speaking to her too. It told her that her life would never get any better, that bondage and humiliation like this was all she had to look forward to from now on and continuing to fight back would only make things worse, so why not enjoy herself when she could? She had been teased with a climax for over a week now. As much as she hated it, she also wanted it. Asuka never got to make that choice, however. Realizing how close to the edge she had gotten sent her into a panic. She struggled against her bondage out of instinct, the one thing she should have avoided most if she wanted more time to make her decision. The chain moved around inside her, and that gave her the final shove, sending her straight over the edge. Her eyes rolled back into her head as she screamed into her gimp mask. The area of the jumpsuit around her crotch suddenly became wet as her dignity drained into the fabric. Lying down on the mattress, lingering in the pleasurable aftermath of her unwanted orgasm, Asuka finally gave up. She decided then and there that she was tired of it all. All the bondage, all the humiliation, she just wanted it to stop. She wanted to be free, living a normal life far away from this place, but Asuka knew that was never going to happen. She was never going to get out of here, no matter what she tried. It had taken her a while to admit it to herself, but escape just wasn’t possible. Not now and not ever. She started to cry. What’s the point anymore? she asked herself as the tears pooled up inside her gas mask. Why go on like this?Asuka couldn’t find an answer. Since there was no way of getting out of her current predicament, there was also no reason to fight back against her nurses and guards. All it did was get her punished. So, she decided to stop. She would do whatever her captors wanted, follow every order, so long as it meant lighter bondage and less humiliation. It wasn’t like she had any dignity left to protect anymore.In short, she had lost, and it took barely a week (by her count) for her captors to break her.When the guards checked up on her next, they found large stains on her jumpsuit and mattress. Having spent all that time lying in her own juices, Asuka didn’t want to escape anymore. The only thing she wanted was a shower.

It looks like Asuka is learning the hard way not to piss off the people responsible for her new life. Whenever she fights back, disobeys an order, or her nurse is in a crappy mood that day, she will be put into a maximum-security leather straitsuit and forced to wear a gas mask as punishment. Movement in these restraints is close to impossible, so the chances of Asuka getting herself an early release are basically zero. All Asuka can do is sit back and try to calm down.

Knowing Asuka, that might take a while.

This is a drawing I had commissioned to go along with my story "The Curse of Eva". You can read the relevant chapter here: The Curse of Eva: Part 3,Needless to say, Asuka wasn’t able to escape from her straitjacket. A couple hours later, the guards entered her cell, just like the nurse had promised. Upon seeing them, Asuka started thrashing around.“MMMPPPH!” she screamed as they approached.During the hours she had spent alone in her cell, it became clear that it was impossible to get out of this straitjacket on her own, despite having the keys to her restraints sitting in her front pocket. As Asuka slowly realized that there was no way to avoid the ‘punishment’ the nurse had planned for her, she grew more and more afraid. A deep fear gripped her stomach. She really, really didn’t want to find out what they had in store for her. And now that the guards were here, it felt like all her worst fears were coming true.The group of four guards quickly surrounded her. Asuka’s eyes darted left and right, trying to guess which one of them would make the first move. She tried kicking at the one by her feet, only for him to easily dodge her strikes. He grabbed her by the ankles, holding her legs in place, and she cried out in surprise. With her lower half immobilized, two of the others quickly moved in and grabbed hold of her arms. She struggled against their grip, futilely trying to shake them off. “MMMM! MMHHHHH!!!” Her cries were getting more and more desperate as they easily overpowered her. Tears began welling up in the corners of her eyes.But even still, she kept on fighting, all the while ignoring the chain between her legs. Whether she was doing this out of stubborness, anger, or fear, she didn’t know. And frankly, she didn’t care. All she was hoping for was to shake out of one of the guards’s grips and hit one of the bastards with an elbow or kick, consequences be damned. They were going to punish her anyway, how much worse could it get?Unfortunately, despite Asuka’s struggles (and she did struggle hard), she wasn’t able to land a blow on any of the guards. Despite all this, she fought to the bitter end, not even stopping when she saw the final guard pull out a small gas mask. Even as the mask was pressed against her face, she was still thrashing in their grips. It was only when gas from a small cylinder was released into it that the intensity of her struggles died down. Her eyes drooped close and her body went limp in their arms.-----“Mmmmmmmmm,” Asuka mumbled as she finally woke up. The first thing she noticed was that she was sitting up, her head sinking into the soft padding of her cell. The guards must have leaned her against the wall while she was unconscious. The first thing she did was try to look around, only to find her vision was a bit blurrier than she remembered. It took a couple seconds to realize that she was looking through the lenses of a gas mask. Now that Asuka thought about it, she could feel straps pulled tight all around her head, digging into her scalp. The gas mask was probably covering her entire face, considering she could feel the leather tickling her forehead. And judging by the fact she couldn’t open her mouth, and she could still feel the sticky adhesive against her skin, Asuka guessed they hadn’t removed the gimp mask either.She groaned as she tried to lift herself off the wall, finding it a lot harder than she expected. A quick glance down told her why. Instead of the orange fabric of her jumpsuit, she only saw black leather covering her body from the neck down.“Mmmmmm!” she yelped, as she realized she was stuck in a thick leather straitsuit.Her arms were neatly folded against her chest, even if Asuka could barely see them from this angle, and her legs were crushed together into a single limb by a built-in legbinder with multiple belts tightened around it. It was way more restrictive than her jumpsuit. She could barely move in this thing. As she tried, she became aware of something else about her predicament, something that made her face flush red behind the gas mask.She was naked.Underneath the straitjacket, Asuka could only feel the touch of leather against her bare skin. Her jumpsuit was nowhere to be found.The guards! They must have stripped her when she was unconscious. The thought of them standing over her naked body, while she was dressed only in that infuriating gimp mask, was almost too much to bear. Some of them were probably getting off on the sight of her too. She guessed at least one of them was perverted enough to do that.Asuka tried to calm herself down. It was… hard, but eventually, she managed to do it. She then started trying to move again. After a few minutes, and quite a bit of effort, she managed to get herself off the wall and sit up straight. Leaning back against the padding, she realized she had no idea where her cell door was anymore. The padding that lined the inside was blending in with the padding lining the rest of the cell. She didn’t know which corner the guards had moved her to either.Almost completely immobilized by her bondage and not even knowing where the exit was, escape seemed impossible to Asuka. This must be her punishment for fighting back earlier: being stuck in a max-security straitjacket suit and gas mask. Asuka tried to struggle, but her efforts amounted to little when even moving was hard. She tried to be optimistic. At least they hadn’t taken her sight when punishing her.Of course, that also meant they still had ways to punish her further, but Asuka didn’t care. Her sight and comfort didn’t matter when her dignity was on the line.If anyone could get out of this, it was her. This… It wasn’t fair. She saved the world, stopped the Third Impact, and this was her reward: being trapped in a blacksite asylum for the rest of her life, however long that was. It just wasn’t! It wasn’t!Asuka tried to focus on the sounds of the valves opening and closing in her gas mask. With it covering her face, and her arms trapped in the sleeves of the straitjacket, it was impossible to wipe away the tears that were starting to well up in her eyes. She was better than this! She didn’t deserve this! This wasn’t right!No, she… she had to focus on something else. They only won if they broke her, right? Denying them that victory was the first step to getting out of here. She couldn’t show any weakness. She couldn’t let them see her cry. She couldn’t rely on anyone but herself.Not Shinji, not Misato, and not Rei.Just like before.After so long, Asuka really thought she had changed. She thought that she was no longer the same as the girl who arrived at the GeoFront and met Shinji 6 years ago. That wasn’t her anymore! She tried to find something else to think about. The thought that she had gone back to being that old person so easily was more than a little horrifying. She thought she had conquered those demons a long time ago.But unfortunately, stuck in a padded cell with no distractions, her mind kept running back to those thoughts. So, she did the only thing she could in her current situation.Struggle.She kicked and thrashed, as though she had the strength to rip herself out of her restraints. Her body rocked from side to side as she tried whatever she could to undo the straitjacket’s tight grip. She didn’t even care about escaping the leather restraint. Just loosening one strap would be enough.Eventually, her struggles became so fierce that she tipped herself over, only realizing her mistake too late. She fell onto her side, landing on the padded floor with a soft thud. Asuka screamed in frustration. With how hard it had been to sit up earlier, she had the sinking feeling that she would be spending the next couple hours lying on the floor… at least. To be honest, she wasn’t even sure she could get herself back up from this position.Asuka rolled onto her back and started fuming. Despite her best attempts, all she really managed to accomplish was make her situation even more miserable. She had worked up a sweat in her struggles, causing the leather of her straitjacket to stick to her skin. And even though she didn’t need to breathe anymore, her mask would only allow her to take in so much air with each breath. She hadn’t noticed it when she was just sitting in her straitjacket, but now, after she started struggling, it was hard to ignore. The worst part was that she hadn’t managed to loosen even that one strap.Staring up at the padded ceiling, Asuka noticed the single light illuminating her cell. The way it was looking down on her pissed her off, like it was sarcastically complimenting her for getting out of the straitjacket; taunting her with the idea that it would be the closest thing she had to the sun from now on, since she would never see the outside world again.With no nurse and no guards, Asuka had to take her frustrations out on something. She lobbed a few curses in her head at the fluorescent bulb, some of them in German, before she realized just how childish she was being. She instead started imagining bad things happening to her captors to calm herself down. Peters. The nurse. Those guards. They would eventually pay for what they did. At least, that’s what she hoped. The thought was like a warm blanket for her mind.Asuka accepted that she wasn’t getting out of her leather straitjacket. It was too strong and too tight. For now, her best bet was to wait until she was put into something less restrictive and try to escape then. There was nothing she could do right now, not even resist in order to get back at her captors.Speaking of her captors, when were they planning to let her out of this thing? It only now occurred to Asuka that, since she no longer needed food, water, or to use the toilet, there was no reason to take her out of any of her restraints. She doubted they would go so far as to leave her stuck in this straitsuit for the rest of her life, considering how the orange jumpsuit seemed to be made to her exact measurements, but how long was she supposed to spend bound like this before her punishment was over?It couldn’t be more than a day. Could it?Could it?-----Asuka spent 3 days alone in her padded cell before the door opened again. At least, she thought it was 3 days. It felt longer and, to be honest, it might have been. With no windows in her cell, she had no way to tell the time. The best she could do was count the number of times the light in her cell would turn off to allow her to get some rest. She had counted 3, but even then, she wasn’t completely sure. It was easy to lose track of time and counts stuck all alone in a padded cell. And maybe the amount of time between her periods of rest changed too? Or the lights weren’t even following a 24-hour schedule?Either way, she had become so lonely and bored lying on the padded floor that a part of her was almost thankful to see the guards again. They entered her cell just like before and hooked up another small canister to her gas mask. The last thing Asuka remembered before passing out was the sweet smell of the knockout gas.-----Asuka woke back up to the sound of wheels rolling across the floor and to the dizzying sensation of movement all around her. Having been stuck in a padded room for the past few days, seeing the cell doors pass by was almost overwhelming. Even though her mind was still recovering from the drugs, she quickly realized that she was strapped to a dolly cart and was being pushed down a hallway, probably by one of the guards or nurses.Where she was going, Asuka didn’t know. And frankly, part of her didn’t want to know. Wherever it was, it probably wasn’t anywhere good.Taking note of her position, Asuka realized her arms were crossed over her chest, meaning she was probably in another straitjacket. She couldn’t feel the sticky leather of the gimp mask but there was something in her mouth, so they had likely changed her gag too. She couldn’t see herself, so she didn’t know what her new gag looked like, but she doubted it looked more embarrassing than the gimp mask.As she shifted around in her restraints, not bothering to try escaping yet, she realized that they felt strangely familiar. Almost comforting, in a way. She glanced down and found herself looking at her old plugsuit.No, not exactly.The red latex-like material hugged her body the same way it had before, but tilting her head forward, she realized that a few adjustments had been made to the suit, the most obvious being it was now a straitjacket. The sleeves had been modified to connect together behind her back. One strap running over her chest and two wrapped around her biceps kept her arms locked in place in a tight self-hug. A built-in strap around her ankles kept them fused together and two more straps had been added to further secure her legs. Seeing her classic plugsuit turned into just another restraint disgusted Asuka, but it also raised a few questions. Why was she dressed like this? There were no more Evas to pilot, so why would she be wearing this?“Mmmm?” She tried getting some answers from whoever was pushing her, but they didn’t bother responding. Not even a dismissive murmur to tell who they were.Asuka tried glancing back to see them, but gave up after her 4th failed attempt to do so. She just sighed and waited for the journey to be over.Eventually, she was wheeled into a room and the gurney came to a stop. Unable to move much of her body, Asuka looked around, taking in her new surroundings instead. There was a metal table in the center of the room, around which a few men in lab coats were gathered. NERV Doctors. Ritsuko’s replacements now that she was trapped in a government blacksite somewhere, probably stuck in similar restraints to Asuka’s own. Between two of the doctors was a face Asuka recognized.Wonder Girl.Asuka huffed as she laid eyes on her fellow former pilot. Rei’s restraints weren’t that much different from her own, a straitjacket version of her white plugsuit. However, Asuka could tell that, between the two, Rei had an easier time with the guards. Probably on account of being the perfect little suck-up. Typical Rei. She was gagged with a white muzzle gag that matched the styling of her plugsuit. Asuka guessed she was wearing the exact same kind, except hers was red and orange instead of white and blue. She wondered what sort of useless thing Rei would say to her in that annoying monotone voice of hers if the gag hadn’t been there. Unlike Asuka, Rei wasn’t bound to any handcart, instead being held in place by two guards, though from the dolly sitting in the corner, she had probably been brought here the same way as Asuka.Again, Asuka wondered what she was doing here. It had to be something important, considering the doctors and Rei. Her instincts told her this was some kind of test. She was experienced enough to recognize a NERV experiment on pilots.As the door closed shut behind her, the guards started undoing the straps keeping her connected to the dolly cart. Once they were done, they lifted her off of it and set her down on the floor, holding her in place much like Rei. From her new perspective, she noticed one of the room’s walls had a large mirror set into it, no doubt made of one-way glass and with an observation room behind it.“Hello, ladies,” she heard a voice say, coming through the speakers in the room. It was female. Asuka guessed it belonged to a scientist around Ritsuko’s age. “My name is Dr. Kaga. As you’ve probably guessed, you’ve been brought here for an experiment. You two are incredible specimens and we intend to study you both thoroughly. Our first experiment will be to see what physical effects are produced when the two of you are kept in close contact with one another.” Asuka imagined Dr. Kaga behind the pane of one-way glass, staring at her and Rei the way she looked at a lab rat. Was that all she was in this place? A prisoner to be locked away and a guinea pig to be tested on? As Dr. Kaga continued to speak, the other NERV doctors left the room, leaving her and Rei with just the guards. Asuka felt the grip on her upper arms tighten each time the door opened. “Your plugsuits have sensors built into them to monitor things like heart rate, blood flow, and breathing,” the doctor explained. “As your bodies are no longer completely human, we have no idea how they will react to even normal stimuli, much less another being like itself. We intend to be very thorough in our testing. I hope you both can understand that. And I hope you both know that you are doing a great service to humanity. You are our best chance at unlocking the secrets of immortality.”The microphone turned off. If Asuka hadn’t been gagged, she probably would have tried spitting at the large mirror. A great service to humanity? The same humanity that locked her up after she’d saved its sorry ass? That one? Asuka wanted to scream at the doctors, which she probably would have done if the guards hadn’t suddenly lifted her up and started carrying her to the center of the room, making her yell at them instead. They set her down on her feet right beside the metal table, facing Rei, who had also been brought over and was now standing about a foot away from her. Asuka watched as one of the guards holding Rei upright let go of her the same moment she felt the grip on one of her own arms disappear.Then, the strangest thing happened. The strap holding her arms together behind her back loosened. The other guard guided her hands out through the loop on her chest and held them straight forward. Asuka didn’t know how to react. She had spent the past week (maybe even longer) so thoroughly bound that the slightest bit of freedom was enough to shock her. It made what came next a lot easier.Suddenly, Asuka felt herself lifted up and forward as the same was done to Rei. Their latex-clad bodies were forced tight together, breasts pressing against breasts and crotch rubbing against crotch. “MMMNNN!!!” she shouted as her body met Rei’s, the sensation bringing her back to reality. Before she could even react, much less try to struggle, the guard in front of her grabbed her arms and connected the sleeves of her straitjacket behind Rei’s back, as Rei’s arms were connected behind Asuka’s own. Both girls' arms were secured, forcing them to hug each other tight.It happened so quickly and efficiently that it took Asuka a few seconds to realize what had been done to them. As soon as she did though, she instinctively tried to struggle, only to immediately stop once she felt her body rub against Rei’s. Her face turned as red as her plugsuit as she realized the embarrassing situation she was now stuck in. She and Rei were trapped together, arms wrapped around each other in a lover’s embrace. And unfortunately, things were only going to get more embarrassing for her.Asuka tried to turn her head to yell some profanities at the guards. At least, that’s what she told herself. The real reason was so she wouldn’t have to look at Rei. As she did, all the while trying to fight back her embarrassment, the guards started undoing the straps going around their legs. Each one was connected to its twin on the other pilot, creating long straps that wrapped around both girls' ankles, calves, and thighs. The guards worked their way up, and as each one was tightened, it brought the two test subjects closer and closer together. Asuka squealed as the final strap was pulled taut, forcing her and Rei’s crotches snug against one another.The guards took advantage of her shock. One of them grabbed her by the armpits as the other grabbed her ankles, easily lifting her and Rei up and setting the two of them down on the metal table, Rei on top and Asuka on the bottom. Asuka groaned as she felt the weight of her fellow pilot suddenly press down on her. The guards quickly grabbed some straps connected to the table and ran them over Rei’s back.The sound of Rei’s moaning brought Asuka back to reality. As the guards tightened the straps, forcing Rei even tighter against her and pinning the two of them to the metal table, Asuka turned her head toward the one-way mirror. The two pilots were so close together that, as she did, she felt Rei’s short hair brush against the side of her face.“Phhhrrrmmm!” she yelled at the scientists she knew were watching.That’s all they were, just a bunch of perverts. Whatever scientific reason they claimed to have for doing this didn’t matter. Asuka couldn’t see any good reason for strapping her and Rei together like this… besides giving the people behind the one-way mirror something to get off to. She got even angrier as she realized they were probably filming this too. They probably wanted to have video of her and Rei in this compromising situation for their “personal use” later. She also guessed that her being stuck on the bottom was no accident, but was intended to further humiliate her.The guards finished tightening the last strap, ensuring that she and Rei were well-secured to the table. Once they were done, they left the room. Asuka made sure to throw a few insults at them on their way out.Even though the guards were gone, and she and Rei were apparently alone, Asuka didn’t quiet down. She kept looking at the one-way mirror and kept calling the scientists no doubt watching her that word, adding in several other names to go along with it. She did whatever she could to avoid having to face her fellow pilot, like her not being able to see Rei meant she wasn’t actually stuck in this humiliating position, even if she could feel Rei’s body pressing against her. Eventually though, Asuka’s voice grew hoarse from the constant shouting and she stopped. But still, she avoided looking at Rei. Asuka didn’t know if she would be able to handle the embarrassment of having to look into her fellow pilot’s eyes as she was stuck beneath her. She also didn’t want to let Rei know what she was feeling.She knew Rei was there. She could see the two of them wrapped in their lover’s embrace in the mirror. She could hear the sound of her breathing right in her ear, so loud that it seemed like Rei was doing it through a megaphone. She could feel Rei’s warm breath on her cheek whenever her fellow pilot exhaled and their stomachs met whenever she breathed in. Asuka held on for as long as she could, but eventually, her neck got sore from being constantly twisted to the side. Slowly, she turned back to face Rei. Their gazes met for an instant and Asuka saw her own feelings reflected back at her in her fellow pilot’s eyes. In them, she could see embarrassment, fear, and… arousal? She immediately looked away and her cheeks once again flushed red.Asuka hated to admit it, but being bound up like this was turning her on. Underneath the latex and her fellow pilot, her body was getting very warm. It was probably because she had spent so much time in her cell, feeling nothing but padding and her various restraints, that the rush of stimulation by having Rei’s body pressed tight against hers was overwhelming. Knowing that Rei was feeling the same way only made the humiliation worse. She wondered what must be going through her fellow pilot’s mind, what she must be thinking seeing the brash and confident Asuka shying away like some reluctant lover.She hated it! She hated feeling this way! She hated being treated like this! This wasn’t how she was supposed to be!It took a while before Asuka worked up the courage to once again look Rei in the eyes. Her fellow pilot’s gaze was soft, almost like she was trying to comfort Asuka. Like she was trying to tell her things were going to be okay even though they weren’t. Staring at each other, their eyes locked together, both girls’ cheeks shone a bright red. Their faces were so close together that, to someone observing, it might have looked like they were about to pull in for a passionate kiss. Even Rei seemed to realize how embarrassing the situation was, considering the way the normally-stoic pilot was blushing. It was more emotion than Asuka had seen from her during the entire time they’d spent fighting the Angels together, and it made Asuka uncomfortable enough that she momentarily forgot about her restraints and tried to shift herself away from Rei. She immediately realized her mistake as her breasts and crotch rubbed against Rei’s, sending a jolt of arousal through her body and causing Rei to move herself in response. Moans escaped from both girls’ lips as their bodies grinded against each other. Thankfully, Asuka was able to stop herself from reacting to Rei’s movement, bringing the cycle to an end before it took both of them over the edge. Asuka looked Rei in the eye and they silently agreed not to struggle and to avoid any unnecessary movement from now on. Asuka just laid there. Seeing the two of them rubbing against each other and getting off was probably exactly what the scientists wanted, and Asuka was committed to denying them that pleasure. There was nothing else she could do.It wasn’t much, but at least it gave her something to focus on.-----Once again, Asuka had no idea how long she’d spent in her current restraints. She couldn’t even tell how long it felt compared to her time in the leather straitjacket due to Rei constantly distracting her. Despite their best attempts, avoiding all unnecessary movement turned out to be impossible. Even though they’d agreed not to struggle, and both kept to that agreement, their bodies would occasionally rub together anyways. Asuka guessed Rei’s hands were sore from being constantly pinned under Asuka’s back. Whenever it happened, they would try to hold back their grunts and moans, but some would still slip out from behind their gagged lips. But still, she and Rei had avoided falling over the edge of pleasure, and that was what mattered most. They had kept their dignity. The way Asuka looked at it, that was the only thing they both had left in this place.It had been awkward. On more than one occasion, Rei had fallen asleep on top of her, resting her head against Asuka’s own. Asuka just had to endure the humiliation that came with those times, as she didn’t want to startle her fellow pilot by waking her up and cause her to rub her body against Asuka. And, just as many times, Asuka had woken up to find Rei staring down at her, already awake.Eventually, it ended the same way everything else did in this place. Some guards entered the room, knocked the two pilots out, and when Asuka woke back up, she found herself back in her original jumpsuit straitjacket, wrapped in chains and being dragged to her cell. The drugs they had used on her still hadn’t worn off, so even if she wanted to struggle, she wouldn’t have been able to. Waking up, feeling her feet dragging across the floor as two guards carried her by the armpits, she was almost thankful that she could barely move. It gave her a reason not to struggle. Asuka didn’t want to admit it to herself, but despite how much she hated the people who did this to her and how much she wanted to make them pay for everything they‘d done, she didn’t know if she wanted to fight back anymore. By her guess, she had just spent an entire week or more being punished for doing exactly that. The tight grip of the leather straitjacket, along with the humiliation of Rei’s body pressing against hers, was still fresh in her memory. If fighting back meant being treated like this, was it really worth it to struggle?Asuka squeezed her eyes shut, as though she was trying to push those thoughts back to the dark recesses of her mind from where they came. It had only been a single week by her guess, and she didn’t know how many months or years she had left in this place. I can’t let them break me so easily! I’m better than this! Am I?No, I can’t think like this. I am better. I’m Asuka Langley Sohryu! I’m the best damn Eva pilot in the world! I saved humanity!That was what she told herself again and again, trying to shout down any competing arguments. After a while, she declared herself the victor in her little debate. She wouldn’t let them take her dignity. She told herself that, had she not been drugged, she’d be struggling against her captors. Despite the punishments they had in store for her, she would be kicking and screaming as they dragged her down the hall.At least, that’s what she told herself.The guards suddenly stopped in front of one of the many identical metal doors lining the hallway. Even with her enhanced eyesight, Asuka had no idea how they could tell which one was her cell. One of the guards held her upright as the other unlocked the cell door. Asuka used the opportunity to take one last look at her surroundings. She had no idea how long it would be before she was let out again, and even grey hallways were a nice change of scenery compared to constant white padded walls.As they carried her inside, Asuka noticed that some changes had been made to her cell while she was gone. A mattress now lay in the far right corner of the room. Unfortunately, it wasn’t out of any kindness from her captors. Asuka could immediately tell due to the large amount of chains attached to the bedding and the gas mask sitting beside it.The guards brought her over and laid her down on the mattress. Without saying a word, they started passing the chains over her body, pulling them tight before securing them with padlocks. In some places, they connected them to the chains already wrapped around her as part of her jumpsuit. When the guards were done, Asuka could once again barely move. Her bindings were so tight that they were compressing her into the mattress. The guards pressed the gas mask against her face and secured it with the built-in straps before leaving her alone.When Asuka heard the cell door close, she guessed that her captors were finished with her. For now, at least. She sighed as she stared up at the padded ceiling, thankful that she was just bound, instead of also being subjected to more humiliation.Eventually, the drugs wore off. Asuka used the opportunity to test her new bindings. She already knew there was no way out, but she still wanted to make sure. All she managed to do was tease herself with the chain running between her legs.Unable to move, Asuka quickly grew bored. It turned out that white ceilings weren’t very interesting. With nothing else to do, she began to contemplate her fate.Was this what her life amounted to now? Where the thing she could most look forward to was just being bound? Asuka dreaded such an existence. She squeezed her eyes shut to hold back tears. She wouldn’t start crying. Not now. Not when they could be watching. She still had her dignity. They hadn’t taken that from her yet. They hadn’t broken her.They hadn’t.I’m better than this! I am!She kept repeating that to herself, over and over again like a mantra. After a while, the words ceased to mean anything, but that didn’t make her stop. Giving herself something to focus on had helped her before when she was stuck here by herself and when she was with Rei. It had gotten her through those tough times, and it would help her get through this one.But this time was different, even if Asuka didn’t realize it right away. As her mind repeated those words, her body unconsciously began to tug at the chains holding her in the exact same rhythm. The metal chain rubbed against and dug into her crotch. Asuka was so focused on insisting she was better than her captors that she didn’t notice the pleasure building up inside her, but eventually, the chain between her legs became too hard to ignore.W-Wait! Why am I horny?! Am I… enjoying this?NO! NO NO NO!Alone and close to the edge, Asuka had no idea where to go. Despite all the focus she put into keeping her dignity, her mind was lost in a haze of pleasure. Part of her wanted to stop, Asuka could feel that part screaming at her right now. It told her that letting herself finish would be letting her captors win, and how could she be better than them if they beat her? Deep down, Asuka knew this part was right, but another voice was speaking to her too. It told her that her life would never get any better, that bondage and humiliation like this was all she had to look forward to from now on and continuing to fight back would only make things worse, so why not enjoy herself when she could? She had been teased with a climax for over a week now. As much as she hated it, she also wanted it. Asuka never got to make that choice, however. Realizing how close to the edge she had gotten sent her into a panic. She struggled against her bondage out of instinct, the one thing she should have avoided most if she wanted more time to make her decision. The chain moved around inside her, and that gave her the final shove, sending her straight over the edge. Her eyes rolled back into her head as she screamed into her gimp mask. The area of the jumpsuit around her crotch suddenly became wet as her dignity drained into the fabric. Lying down on the mattress, lingering in the pleasurable aftermath of her unwanted orgasm, Asuka finally gave up. She decided then and there that she was tired of it all. All the bondage, all the humiliation, she just wanted it to stop. She wanted to be free, living a normal life far away from this place, but Asuka knew that was never going to happen. She was never going to get out of here, no matter what she tried. It had taken her a while to admit it to herself, but escape just wasn’t possible. Not now and not ever. She started to cry. What’s the point anymore? she asked herself as the tears pooled up inside her gas mask. Why go on like this?Asuka couldn’t find an answer. Since there was no way of getting out of her current predicament, there was also no reason to fight back against her nurses and guards. All it did was get her punished. So, she decided to stop. She would do whatever her captors wanted, follow every order, so long as it meant lighter bondage and less humiliation. It wasn’t like she had any dignity left to protect anymore.In short, she had lost, and it took barely a week (by her count) for her captors to break her.When the guards checked up on her next, they found large stains on her jumpsuit and mattress. Having spent all that time lying in her own juices, Asuka didn’t want to escape anymore. The only thing she wanted was a shower.
