Tarzan and Gehoor (Kaa Parody)

The accident with the log on the day the rain poured was most unfortunate for the little ape-raised boy known in his family as Tarzan.

Out on his own to not be a burden to his family, and trying to make up for his shortcomings by surviving the lone-wolf lifestyle, Tarzan was experiencing hardship in the harsh wilderness over and over again, 100 times a day where he hadn't gone through as much then when he was with the pack.

Nevertheless he managed to stay alive for a few days, and hopefully the experience was making him sturdier.

One thing getting in the way of his hopes to get stronger was the fatigue from the lack of sleep he was getting.

Up, up high on a branch sprouted from an especially thick tree, the white-gorilla had managed to climb his way up with the help of a hanging vine that he pulled up behind him.

Few predators or other nuisances had the opportunity to disturb him up here.

Pity however that he had accidentally delivered himself to Gehoor. 

A lengthy behemoth of a serpent with the power to paralyze his desired prey with eye contact, and one who had previously consumed and digested humans before.
Very rarely, but they were undoubtedly his favourite to eat.

As small as Tarzan was in comparison, the lack of meat wouldn't be enough to keep the green boa from looking at the isolated boy with hungry eyes.

The snake was surprised of course. Knowing how humans operated, it was weird to see a member of the Waziri tribe this far out and alone, and what looked to be a cub no doubt.

Gehoor almost felt sorry for the cub with how easy prey it was, but better to be consumed in this particular serpents maw then any other animal, at least the child would go out with a big dumb smile once Gehoor was done.

Tarzan himself had almost drifted off to sleep, unaware about the green snake shifting its coils  all about in the branches above to prep himself for wrapping up his food. But before Tarzans disappeared in favour of some positive dreams, Gehoor came down to help with that.

At first, upon seeing the snake lower its head from up high, Tarzan was immensely scared.

Snakes were dangerous to stumble upon even with the nearby protection of a gorilla patriarch, but now on his own and with his mobility options limited, Tarzan had no chance to fend of this snake even if Gehoor wished to snatch the boy up in the traditional manner.

But the snake was more 'kinder' then that, though his hypnosis was merely used for self-entertainment moreso then making its hypnosis victims calm down and feel at ease.

Locking eyes with Gehoors striking hypnosis that stood out from the darkness, Tarzans focus was locked on, while his consciousness was mostly intact and understanding of the situation, his body was lost, instead it moved to keep looking at Gehoors colours regardless of Tarzans own intentions.

But even his mind was slowly escaping his control, for it to was slowly and slowly being overtaken with a more slave-driven mind to do what the hypnotee wished for if anything was asked.

Gehoor had no intention to demand anything from Tarzan, other then to hold still. And once the boys mind was completely gone, then to shut his eyes and drift off into a deep sleep then even an aggressive squeeze could not wake him from.

Tarzan's frightening thoughts were quickly being replaced with more happy ideas.

"This snake hasn't bitten you, he might be friendly. His eyes, they are so calm, he MUST be friendly. He doesn't want to eat me."

They were brief, but they were becoming more and more his own as the serpent bombarded his spell on the helpless little boy.

And soon it was not just his mind being harassed, but with his fixation being absolute, Gehoor had started winding his tail in loops around Tarzans body, trapping him in a basket of coils.

Under normal circumstances this would be a cause for alarm, even for a jungle boy whose main source of comfort was a bed of leaves. But thanks to the trickery of the hypnosis the muscles of the serpent felt like a pillow to Tarzan.

And he had never known the joy one provided being so far aware from civilization, so to say his senses were overwhelmed was an understatement. It was a testament to his willpower that he had not succumbed to the spell after 2 loops had wrapped around and covered his belly.

As the colours in his own vision were becoming especially prevalent that he was beginning to lose sight of even the snake itself, Tarzan's fatigue was becoming too much to handle, and he was confused, but of what?

As the tail of the serpent spun around the boys neck, Tarzan tried to call for help for someone to aid in his predicament, whatever it was.

[GULP]

With one fierce tug of his tail, the coils all around Tarzan had closed in for a brief moment and squeeze the boy, forcing much air out of his mouth for that short time.

Tarzan's doom was sealed, the hypnosis had abated his mind for that short second of injury, only to come rushing back to his mind harder then before. Tarzan was a slave to the spell, and a delicious meal to his master.

Gehoor caressed his prey in his coils. Oh so helpless. Even a grown adult male hunter being alone this far out in the jungle left it so vulnerable. The question of how a human cub got this far and why raised some questions. 

Typically Gehoor would just get on with the consumption, but such easy weak prey was too unique to not amuse himself while it was so haplessly grinning, unaware of his poor predicament. 

Gehoor raised his cocoon and swayed it around, watching Tarzan keep his smile and his legs remain stiff as the snake flung him around, too deep under his sleep to notice the wind brushing up to his face. While still manoeuvring the coils he undid his binds and let the boy fly out at good speed, from the height Tarzan would certainly have fallen to his doom had the python not wrapped his tail around the boys bare right ankle to bungie cord him back up.

Bringing Tarzan back to the branch and watching him be dangled upside down. Still smiling in bliss with his eyes closed.

"Can you hear me cub." Gehoor asked.

"Yes master." Tarzan replied

Gehoor flung the boy up a bit to rearrange his loop on the foot to instead tie around the boys neck, before bringing the boy back to the branch and have him stand on top with his feet. Something Tarzan had little experience with, walking exactly human, but with the serpents hypnotic push his body would obey whatever he physically could.

"Keep the two paws closer to your head limp, and use the other two to move forward until I tell you to stop."

Without a second to think, or resist, the little ape boy obeyed and walked along the branch, unaware he was walking to his slimy new home.
