A week after the VTX-2 test, Dr. Edwin Zander stood atop the same elevated platform with a new and improved version of his groundbreaking device: the VTX-3. It had the same dimensions as its predecessor with a three-meter chrome barrel, but it boasted some significant enhancements under the hood. Edwin couldn’t wait to demonstrate its capabilities to the sold-out stadium crowd. He gazed at the empty field and smiled before raising his microphone.
“Ladies and gentlemen!” he began. “It is my distinct pleasure to welcome you this evening to a public test of the revolutionary VTX-3.”
The onlookers cheered as Edwin continued.
“The VTX-3 biomolecular disruptor may look similar to the VTX-2, but it’s fully redesigned with onboard artificial intelligence. The AI enables autonomous target acquisition with an accuracy of within ten centimeters from a kilometer away. Combined with fully automatic firing at a rate of twenty-five rounds per second, the VTX-3 is a truly magnificent machine. But don’t take my word for it. See for yourselves! It’s hottie time!”
At that moment, a torrent of female flesh burst from the tunnel at the opposite end of the field as two hundred nude women streamed onto the field and sprinted toward Edwin. All of them were between eighteen and twenty-four years old, mostly students from local colleges. Many had lightning bolts tattooed on their asses, shaved into their pubic hair, or both. Becoming test subjects for one of Dr. Zander’s creations was their deepest desire.
As the leaders crossed midfield, the VTX-3 suddenly came to life. It swiveled left about thirty degrees, acquired a target, and fired. The green energy bolt streaked fifty meters and struck a woman square in her chest. She gasped as her naked body absorbed the blast and began to glow. As she phased out of reality, the disruptor was already turning to the right, smoothly acquiring and firing on one target after another in a stunning display of its precision.
The VTX-3 completed its sweep across the field and swiveled back in the opposite direction, still firing relentlessly at all the female flesh. As the front line of women was erased from existence, the disruptor fired through their vanishing bodies, striking the nude runners behind them and continuing through the entire group.
It was all over within ten seconds as two hundred naked women were reduced to ghostly green glows, which promptly faded completely. The stunned crowd erupted in cheering and applause for the dramatic vanishing act.
Meanwhile, in the front row next to the tunnel, two best friends were furiously stripping their clothes off.
“Do you think this’ll work, Hannah?” one of them asked.
“Of course, Val. Guaranteed! Just hurry up and get naked!”
Within seconds, they were nude and climbing over the low wall onto the field.
“Ready for oblivion?” asked Val, grasping Hannah’s hand.
“Fuck, yeah, I’m ready! Let’s do this!”
Hand in hand, the pair took off running across the empty field directly toward Edwin and the VTX-3. The fans in the stadium finally noticed and began cheering to encourage the naked women.
Edwin briefly considered shutting down the disruptor but quickly thought better of it. Who was he to deny nonexistence to any willing test subjects? So he just smiled and watched as the nude women drew nearer.
The VTX-3 quickly swiveled, acquired the targets, and fired all within one second. The pulse struck Val between her bare breasts, engulfing her body in a green glow, which quickly spread through clasped hands to Hannah. They grew brighter and brighter before starting to fade.
“So fucking worth it!” Val yelled.
“Hell, yeah!” Hannah replied. “To oblivion and beyond, babe!”
“To oblivion and…”
Val trailed off as the naked pair became woman-shaped green afterglows and finally faded to nothingness. The crowd cheered.
“How about that fearless duo?” asked Edwin. “Test subjects 201 and 202, ladies and gentlemen! Before I shut down the disruptor, I should ask if we have any more vivacious vixens eager to volunteer.”
All around the stadium, young women tore off their clothing, jumped onto the field, and began running toward Edwin. The VTX-3 dutifully acquired the nude targets and fired, stripping the naked ladies from reality forever.
The onslaught continued for thirty seconds as a steady supply of gorgeous women took Edwin up on his offer, throwing all caution to the wind as they sprinted into sweet oblivion. Finally, the field was once again empty.
“Wow!” Edwin exclaimed. “Let me check the targeting report on the VTX-3 to see how many horny hotties we just erased.”
He tapped on a handheld tablet a few times and then grinned.
“The official tally is 298 additional test subjects responding to my call for volunteers. That brings our total yield for the evening to exactly five hundred badass naked babes!”
The fans erupted in wild applause and cheering. Edwin basked in the adulation. As his years of painstaking research finally brought the positive results he craved, Edwin felt vindicated. With enthusiastic approval from the review board, strong interest from investors, and a limitless supply of eager female test subjects, the sky was the limit for VaporTek, Edwin’s new company.
“Let’s give it up again for test subjects 201 and 202, the naked catalysts for an unexpected and sexy chain reaction. Development of the VTX-4 is well underway. We’re going smaller this time with a fully functional unit that test subjects can carry. I don’t want to spoil the surprise completely, so I’ll leave it at that. Please join us again in a few weeks for the big reveal. Good night, everyone!”

Story notes
The Test Subject series is back! This one was an absolute blast to write (pun intended) and also fun to brainstorm. I’m not sure how many parts I’ll write in total, but I have a feeling it’ll continue for a while. Zappity zap!
