"I don't like you." Caliska said as they walked through the forest.

"Still mad about what happened at lamia castle?" Galima teased while grinning at her friend.

"You just had to tickle me while I had my legs around her! What's wrong with you?!" She yelled.

"It was the perfect opportunity. I couldn't resist." Galima explained while looking to Katerine. "I mean you also took advantage of the situation."

"I did it to guarantee that we got out." Katerine responded while turning away.

"Can you say it wasn't fun?" Galima asked with a smile. Katerine looked away from her, watching the trees as they walked by. "See! It's fun!" Galima said after a few seconds of silence.

"GALIMA!" Caliska yelled in frustration.

"Aw! Do you want more?" The halfling teased while wiggling her fingers menacingly. "Plus, weren't you going to get revenge on us? That'll teach you."

"Shhhh. We're hear." Katerine said as she quickly hid behind a tree. The others took after her lead, hiding behind different trees. They all peaked their heads out to see the cyclops kneeling down away from them. The cyclops wore a large leather tarp over them. Her long brown hair ran down half her back. Even from the back, the three noticed a curved figure on her. The three stared at the cyclops as she looked like she was tending to the forest.

Except for Galima who was staring at the cyclop's exposed bare soles. The size of her feet looked to be the size of her, which made it harder for her to look away. "Those are great soles!" She said aloud.

"Anyone notice something off?" Katerine asked.

"She looks like she's taking care of the forest. Even trying to keep others away from her." Caliska said.

"Exactly. She doesn't look to be that bad." Katerine said as her and Caliska began to walk towards the cyclops. However, they noticed Galima already running towards her. "WAIT!" She yelled.

The cyclops froze before looking over her shoulder. She managed to see Caliska and Katerine. "Who's there?" The cyclops asked shyly. However, Galima got to her feet and nuzzled them. She stood up on her toes and nuzzled her arches. "NOOOOOO!" The cyclops laughed while attempting to keep still. "THAT TICKLES!"

"Sorry! We'll get our friend off you." Katerine said as her and Caliska ran up to Galima and tore her away from the cyclops. "What's wrong with you?"

"They're perfect!" Galima mumbled while lustfully staring at the pair of feet in front of her.

"Thanks." The cyclops said as she stood up. Caliska was the first to notice a nest filled with baby bird on the tree that used to be in front of the cyclops. "My name is Lina." The cyclops added.

"I'm Katerine, this is Galima." The elf said while raising her friend up.

"I'm Caliska. You're a kind cyclops, huh?" The cat woman said.

Lina blushed when she heard what Caliska said. "I just took care of the birds. They were born recently." She explained shy.

"Makes you wonder why someone put a bounty on you." Galima said while looking up at Katerine.

"Someone put a bounty on me?" Lina asked. Her face showed how scared she was. Her brown eye looked like she was about to cry.

"Ya, but I don't think we'll do it. You seem to be nice enough. I'm sure the guild will overlook it." Katerine said.

"If you told me this was your target, I would never have agreed to travel with you." Caliska said.

"But you agreed when I tickled you." Galima responded.

"You tickled me at the worst time till I agreed!" Caliska complained.

Lina giggles at their argument. "If it's tickling, then it's no big problem." She said while laying down on the ground. Her feet were easily the size of Galima, and her toes were long. She wiggled them, showing how much control she had. Even curled, it looked like nothing would be able to get through.

"I think I'm in love!" Galima said. While staring at the soles in front of her.

"Mind doing me a favor? Can you put Katerine and Galima between your toes?" Caliska asked.

"Hold on! Why would we need to be there?" Galima asked as her and Katerine were put between the cyclop's toes. As soon as they were in place, she repositioned her foot so that their feet were facing Caliska.

The cat woman wasted no time climbing up the big bare sole in front of her, making her way to Katerine's and Galima's bare feet. "That tickles!" Lina said while giggling to herself.

"We have to make our escape. If we tickle here, she might wiggle us free." Galima said while looking at the space they were in. However, Katerine wrapped her arms around Galima, trapping the halfling. "Wait! Let me go!"

"It tickles though!" Katerine said as she felt Caliska's nails traced up and down her bare feet. As the tickling continues, Katerine's grip on Galima tightens.

"If you keep it up like this, then we wo-" Galima said before giggling like mad. She felt a something fluffy brush up against her soles, causing her feet to free up like before.

"Enjoying?" Caliska asked as her tail gently tickled at the halfing's soles. Galima giggled and squirmed as Katerine's laughter rose.

The tickling went on for a couple minutes before they both were screaming. Caliska dug her nails into Katerine's soles while her tail tickled away at Galima's toes. While the two were being tickled, Lina giggled at the predicament happening at her toes. "Mind if I join?" She asked.

"Sure." Caliska said as she stopped tickling Katerine. When she did, the elf immediately began panting and loosening her grip on Galima. Without missing a beat, the cat woman picked up Katerine and carried her closer to the cyclops. As soon as Lina had a grip on the tired elf, Caliska scurried back and took Galima out from between the cyclop's toes. Without any hesitation, the cat woman grabbed hold of her teammate's ankles and tickled away at her feet with her claws.

"NO! CALI! STOP!" Galima begged while screaming. The nails dig into her soles, tickling away at every inch they could.

While Galima was screaming, Lina held Katerine in the air by her ankles with one hand and tickled both her feet with the other. "STOP! MY FEET ARE TOO TICKLISH!" Katerine pleaded while wiggling her feet.

"But you're adorable." Lina responded as she brought Katerine's feet closer and took a lick of her feet.

When she did, Katerine let out a ticklish scream. "OH NO! MY PASSIVE!" Katerine screamed while squirming. The two of them spent the next ten minutes laughing and squirming before finally being released. Katerine was gently set on the ground with tears running down her cheeks.

"Can you stop getting into these situations?" Alina asked while panting heavily. "There's too much tickling for one woman to handle." Katerine let the goddess complain while she recovered.

Galima was panting with tears all over, her hair a mess, and her face red. "I'm satisfied now." Caliska said with a cocky smile.

"You guys are so much fun! Much better than the meanies that went to the swamp." Lina said.

"What happened at the swamp?" Caliska asked while turning her attention to the cyclops.

"I heard some noise coming from there a couple days ago. Afterwards, a couple zombies started coming towards me. I squished them." Lina explained.

When Katerine heard what happened, she forced herself onto her knees. "We need to get there!" She said.

"Why? The only ones there are lizardmen." Caliska questioned.

"That's why. They're like family to me." Katerine explained as she weakly got to her knees and shakily walked south.

Lina and Caliska watched as she took a few steps before collapsing due to exhaustion. "I'll carry you there." Lina said as she scooped up the three of them and began walking towards the lizardmen village.
