(For those who have not read Metamorphosis I-IV, Bart and Laura are bats. Well, Bart is a large common fruit bat with interests in Shibari and BDSM, and Laura is a middle- aged woman who finds she is transforming into a bat and really confused by Bart’s interests…)
METAMORPHOSIS V
“Come on, Laura, pick it up! I can’t stay up here all day. It’s exhausting.”
Bart was suspended in mid air, about ten feet from the roof apex, twenty feet off the ground.
“I can’t, I can’t, I can’t, I can’t. What if they don’t work?”
Laura, mesmerized by the languid flap of Bart’s massive wings, stood on the top of the roof. She remembered the times he trapped her small, delicate wings within his and felt the power of his dominance. Bart had many faults, and a sadistic nature, but his sexual allure could not be denied. Laura was blossoming like a rose, with little Japanese beetles buried deep within her petals. She felt Shibari was helping them bond, though Bart left her too long in the bindings. Parts of her had turned temporarily blue. She was finding this ‘freedom of the ropes’ one knot at a time.
“Come on, Laura, I’ll catch you. Trust me. Now, run fast and leap. Your wings should work fine.”
Laura did as she was told and hit the air running. She dropped like a stone.
“Bart! You Fuckerrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!”
“Hey, Laura! Next time flap your wings, not your gums.”

METAMORPHOSIS VI
When Laura fell of the roof she smashed her ankle. It took all of Bart’s Shibari bindings to stabilize her limb and now Laura was making Bart wait on her, wing and foot. He wasn’t too happy with the ‘fetch’ thing but was puzzled why Laura’s wings hadn’t worked.
“Bart,” Laura whined, “The ice melted in my drink. Make me a fresh one, darlin’.”
Bart came from the kitchen, an apron tied around his middle. He was pissed being a house-bat but what could he do? A dominant fruit bat, this apron went against his nature. But the dishes had to be done, guano shoveled.
Inactivity made Laura horny. She spread her legs, flapped her pinkish wings alluringly. Bart’s eyes gleamed as he climbed between them. He lost his head. Laura had used a new perfume, “Peaches and Cream”.
“Bart! I’m not a cantaloupe. Your teeth are sharp!”
“Sorry, Laura. I’m just following my nature.”
Of all the kinds of bats in the world, I get a fruit bat, thought Laura. Life is unfair.
But he did look cute in a frilled apron. That big bow on his butt suited him.
Nature be damned.

METAMORPHOSIS VII
Tap…tap….tap…
“Bart? Whatchadoin’?” Laura yawned, just waking up.
“I’m working on a pathology.” His ‘go away answer’. Back hunched over the keyboard, typing fast.
“Which one?” Laura blinked, trying to see what Bart was writing.
“Funny. I’m looking at this Gorean website.”
“Ah geez, Bart! It’s a comic book.” Laura’s eyes widened at the picture of a woman kneeling on her knees, lips parted seductively, naked. She thought of her own knees and knew she could never hold that position. Plus, she didn’t look ‘cute’ naked. Not before, and not now with these pinkish wings attached to her elbows.
“Hey Bart? Are you serious? How am I to hold that position serving you on my knees?”
“You could levitate a bit with your wings, take pressure off your knees. You could use your imagination if you wanted to please me.”
“Please him.” There it was. Always please the Dom. What did she get out of it? Seemed like life with her dead husband, Howard, except with guano.
“Bart? I don’t think Gorean Doms wear aprons.”
Bart looked down. He forgot to remove it after the dishes. Maybe he really was a Gorean submissive? Not a good thought.
METAMORPHOSIS VIII
“Greetings Laura”.
Bart Bartowski spotted Laura reading at the dining room table as he fluttered into the room.
Laura looked up from “Kajira Daily” and stared at him. He saluted her with his right hand thumping his left shoulder.
“You still playing at Gorean stuff, Bart?”
“Not playing, Laura. I’m convinced John Norman is a visionary.”
“Oh Bart,” said Laura, flipping through the magazine and turning it sideways to view the Kajira of the Month. “John Norman is a terrible writer, what makes you think he’s any better at Philosophy? Plus, those Gor books are old. And you know my knees are bad.”
Bart opened his mouth to argue, then clamped it shut.
“Gorean bats don’t debate with kajiras. Get me orange juice, girl.”
“Good idea, Bart. Make it two,” said Laura studying slave jewelry on the model.
“Ah come on, pleaseeee Laura, honey? Can’t you pretend I’m a Gorean bat for a few moments? You never play with me.”
Laura started laughing.
“Ah, Bart? Gorean bats don’t beg.”
Bart glowered at Laura. Then his wings sagged
“Tell you what, Bart. You’re a fruit bat, right?”
Laura wiggled her peach-fuzzy butt.
“So bite me.”
