Chapter 488:
En Passant Grandmaster
[Content Warning! This chapter contains extreme gore]
Belgium, September, 2022.
Kaylee let out an annoyed yawn as she stared up at the face of her twin sister, Chaya.
"What's with that scowl, huh? I'm an adult, I can sleep nude if I want on the sofa in my own home."
"Kaylee, must you always be so vulgar? I've come home to visit, and this is how you greet me?"
"Never asked you to come home."
"I really do think you need to sit down with a rabbi, and talk about your problems and attitude."
"Religion's your thing. I don't give a shit about it."
"Kaylee, why do you always shun your Jewish heritage?"
Kaylee narrowed her gaze as she reached down for a can of beer. "Why would I be proud of some heritage that gets me jeered at and harassed?"
"I won't deny antisemitism is prevalent, but that's all the more reason to come live in Israel-"
"No. I don't get the damn obsession. People just seem to hate you more if you say you're from Israel, not to mention there's terrorists all around it."
"Israel's military is one of the most advanced in the world and will fight to save every one of it's people."
"And it's also one of the most hated ones in the world. Shit pops into my newsfeed whether I like it or not."
Chaya shook her head and sat down next to Kaylee. Ever since they were young, Chaya had always been the more religious angel while Kaylee was the prodigal devil. Both were born Jewish in Belgium, and had the unfortunate experience of being bullied because of said Jewish heritage. Chaya remained unwavering in her faith, but Kaylee was different. She hated being shunned for something she had no control over, thus leading to her delinquent personality flourishing.
When the two grew up, Chaya opted to immigrate to Israel, while Kaylee decided to remain in Belgium, seeking to chart her own path. While Chaya realized Kaylee had every right to chart her own path, she still couldn't agree with some of the lifestyle choices she was making, notably the fact that she was trying to start an all-female harem.
"Kaylee, did you have sex last night?" Chaya asked.
"And?"
"Kaylee, there is nothing wrong with a same-sex relationship, but there is a problem if you are having relationships with multiple people at once."
"Polygamy's fine in some cultures."
"Not ours, nor this land's."
"Shut it! I do my own thing! Get out of my house now!"
Chaya frowned and clenched her fists. "My apologies, but I don't think I can return as you might like, or perhaps you hate me to the point where you'd be fine with me dying."
"Huh?"
Chaya dejectedly showed Kaylee a headline on her phone.
"'Babylonia revives and takes control of Israel after winning chess match'... The hell?"
"This isn't fake. You remember a few months ago what happened with Russia and Ukraine, this is similar. I was actually en route to visit you when it happened, and apparently all Israeli citizens that were within Israel at the time of the match are also under control of Babylon."
"Isn't that what happens when a new regime-"
"KAYLEE! Our people are now enslaved! Worse than before. Babylonia's leader is an ex-Nazi scientist, one who boasts of carrying out millions of horrific experiments and executions of our people. And now he has control of Israel. What do you think he'll do to our people!?"
"Why is this my problem?"
Chaya trembled as tears streaked down her face. "I'm scared. I'm scared we're about to face a similar calamity to the one our people faced in Nazi Germany."
"So you're scared this wacko scientist is gonna drag you back and carve you up because you decided to change your passport. Well lounge on the couch, but don't mess with me or my girlfriends."
"Kaylee... About your girlfriends-"
"Don't diss em. They're all good women. Good women that had to go through shit like me because of shit they couldn't control..."
Chaya warmly smiled as Kaylee buried herself back under the blanket. "Perhaps despite your disdain for our heritage, you do have a heart worthy of praise. Though the legal status of polygamy is not something you can just ignore."
"Save the sermon. I'm not letting you stay here to lecture me."
Chaya smiled and shook her head. "I guess we are the type of twins that are polar opposites."
However, Chaya's fears would eventually come true in the worst way imaginable. One week later, her and Kaylee were kidnapped and dragged to what they assumed was Babylonia. There, the two found themselves stripped, shaved of all their hair, gagged, and strapped down to lab tables.
"Twins, twins, twins. Do you know how much we just loved to play with twins back in the third Reich? And Jewish too. That'll make this even more savory for me," Olavi sneered as he mockingly clapped while strolling over to the girls.
"NGH MMPH NGH! MMPH NGH MMPH NGH MMPH NGH [LET ME GO! YOU FUCKING KIDNAPPED ME, YOU]-"
Vrrr!
The whirring of the chainsaw silenced Kaylee, replacing her anger with pure terror.
"Yes, that's how little vermin like you should look. You are nothing more than vermin for hallmark humans like me to do as I please with," Olavi cackled as he tossed aside the large chainsaw and pulled out a handheld meat cutter. "What? You think for this project I'd just bash and slash with the largest chainsaw in the armory? No, I want precise clean, small, and PAINFUL cuts. This is a splicing job, after all."
The revving of the meat cutter wasn't as loud as the chainsaw, but the moment it made contact with Chaya's pinky finger, everything changed. Bloodcurdling screams emitted from Chaya's gagged lips as blood began to splatter. Kaylee desperately began yelling for Olavi to stop, only for him to turn to her and saw her right ear off.
As Kaylee screamed in even more pain than Chaya did, Olavi peeled back Chaya's gag enough for he to talk more coherently as he leaned in close to her right ear and whispered, "So, does it hurt more here, or on your finger?"
Chaya breathed heavily as her eyes went bloodshot, but terror quickly consumed her once moe as Olavi began carving a chunk of lesh from her cheek.
"MMPH NGH MMPH [LEAVE HER ALONE]!" Kaylee cried.
Olavi shot her a malicious smirk before sawing off all the toes on Chaya's left foot and then the entire foot itself. He then moved over to Kaylee and did a similar thing to her right hand. Though while he was gruesomely dismembering the twins and gleefully hurling degrading and racist slurs at them, he was also carefully sorting and preserving their hacked off parts for later.
Eventually, the two were left in the horrific state of being completely dismembered and skinned, but still alive. Their eyes, teeth, tongues, and some of their organs and remaining bones had also been removed, yet both were still kept alive.
"Now, which one of you gets the privilege to lick my piss from the ground and continue to walk the earth? Maybe you'll both survive consciously when I splice your brains together, or... you'll get lucky and die... That WOULD be the best case scenario for you! Oh, but can you even hear me after I dissected your ears? Of course you can, I wouldn't cut off all your senses to prevent you from feeling more PAIN!"
And then, everything went blank before pain returned to Kaylee as she was spliced back together with both her own body parts and Chaya's. It was arguably more excruciating than being chopped up, but after a long eternity of pain, it stopped.
There Kaylee laid, naked, hairless, and covered in stitches. She was whole, or at least whole enough to function like a normal human physically. Mentally, she was beyond saving.
As for Chaya, her memories managed to be successfully implanted into Kaylee, but that and the parts from her used to reform Kaylee were all that remained.
"And now, you're my pet, vermin," Olavi sneered as he fastened a collar to Kaylee's neck before forcing her to look at what remained of Chaya.
Now able to see again, Kaylee cried and vomited. And to make matters worse, Olavi continued to taunt her with more racist insults while licking the blood off the meat cutter, bringing forth immeasurable fury and hatred within Kaylee. But thanks to the microchips Olavi had slipped into her during her reconstruction, she was powerless to raise a hand or voice against him.
"Now, rejoice, for you will become one of my more notable case studies, but first, why don't I tell you this isn't Babylonia, nor are we even anywhere near the Levant. Where you are is Deep Blue's home, ____."
The revelation was shocking to Kaylee more so because of just where this country was.
"T- That close... You hauled us north... You north, NORTH, north, morth, nonononononon..."
"Seems you're beginning to malfunction. That's all pat of the test, and expected from vermin," Olavi sneered as he forcefully put Kaylee to sleep and sealed her in a pod.
Ever since that day, Kaylee had been at Olavi's mercy, despite seemingly being given some degree of autonomy within Deep Blue. She was subjected to numerous experiments that increased her chess prowess, leading to her eventually joining the WWCF as Melisha Kamaleon to act as a double agent for Deep Blue. It was during this time that she managed to win a DESPER match, allowing her to create a separate visage of herself that she could control remotely, leading to her creating a warped personality of Chaya.
Now, the culmination of a plan she set in stone ever since learning of the Ultima-master was on the cusp of coming to fruition. All she had to do now was beat Daria and victory would be hers. But whether this plan was conceived fully through her own free will was something not even she knew, but considering a successful execution of the plan would lead to her ultimate freedom, she was more than willing to bet it all for salvation's sake.
