“Hey I see my friend over there. Hiiiii- Eek!”

I stomped forward, tugging Amber away.

“Amber quiet! Drawing attention is the very very last thing we need right now.”

“Aheh. Sorry Nina.”

I sighed and tugged at the chain again. It only 10 inches long, connecting the sides of our two thick leather belts together. Belts that were locked on with padlocks, with a tight extra strap passing down under our skirts and through our legs just for added difficulty. My pledge partner and I were quite literally joined at the hip, forced to stand closely together side-by-side at all times for our task. It required a fair degree of co-ordination to avoid tripping over each other.

This task was our final challenge of our initiation into Sigma Upsilon Beta, the most sought-after sorority on campus. I felt like I had drawn the short straw with my partner. While I was certainly blessed in the looks department, Amber was drop-dead gorgeous, with flowing red hair and a curvy figure. She was also however, a total ditz.

“Amber I shouldn’t have to remind you that there are Delta Omicron Mu fraternity pledges spread out all across the campus right now. We cannot be caught by them.”

The challenge began with us getting unblindfolded at one end of the campus, and tasked to reach the sorority house grounds on the opposite side. The Delta fraternity was the male counterpart to the Sigma sorority, and had its own pledges performing a rather different role in the challenge. Their own pairs (untethered, to my chagrin) were trying to find and capture sorority pledges before they slipped by to victory. Once they had successfully captured a sorority pair, that pair also exited the game.

One strategy for the girls was to hide and wait for the captor numbers to dwindle down, but I’d heard the better bet was to make a break for the house sooner rather than later, since waiting around increased the risk of being found. Since there were several angles one could approach the sorority house, the boys couldn’t guard every path.

Plus hiding felt a little trickier wearing such skimpy cheerleader-like outfits, in the sorority’s bright pink and white colours. I kept having to tug my short skirt down. Amber didn’t seem to notice and flashed her panties constantly.

"Yeeek!”

I had to physically pull Amber in behind a bush with me, as she failed to hear the sounds of running feet approaching from around the corner. I held her awkwardly against me, my hand clamped on her mouth to keep her quiet. We watched a group of 4 boys in the prominent black and red fraternity colours run by. Why were they grouping up?

“Where is she? That guy said he saw Amber over this way.”

“She can’t be far. Maybe she went over towards the...”

Their voices trailed off. Just my luck. Amber drew plenty of attention with her stunning looks at the co-ed party earlier in the week. It should’ve been no surprise that all the boys would hone in on her during this challenge. And by extension, me.

I breathed out again. “That was too close. We’re nearly there though. One more quad to cross, then the promenade, and then we’re home free.”

“We got this! Hey was it just me or were those boys really cute?”

“Amber please!”

I peered out. It seemed quiet, just a few individual students here and there.

“Okay... go!”

We shuffled out from the bush and began to sprint across the quad, or at least our closest approximation of sprinting. My eyes were darting all around, on the lookout for the sudden appearance of black and red. We cleared the grass, gripping each other to stay stable. So far so good.

I could see the sorority house come into view. No-one waiting between us and it. We could make it.

The promenade was flanked with tall overhanging lampposts. As we got closer, we saw something large hanging from one of them. Amber gasped.

“Those are people! They’re... other pledges?”

Indeed as we got closer, we saw the same pink and white uniforms that we were wearing. A pair of girls were suspended by a rope that was tied to each of their belts and ran up over the horizontal bar of the lamppost. They were facing each other and taped together.

Amber stopped short.

“Wait that’s Brandy! I think? Similar hair but I can’t see her face. Although I don’t remember Brandy having such a nice butt...”

“Amber please! The sorority house is right there. We have to keep moving.”

“Oh yeah for sure. Oh my god, do you see what the boys put between their legs?!”

“Amber it doesn’t matter!! We can’t help them. Let’s go.”

I was physically trying to pull Amber along behind me. She was half-following but still transfixed by the girls above us.

“What do you think it’s like?”

“I don’t know!”

A new deeper voice spoke. “Want to find out?”

A boy in a red and black hoodie stepped in front of me. Suddenly we had hands all over us. But the house was so close!

“Mmmph!”

I kicked my hanging legs against empty air. Amber’s long legs, entwined with mine inside many loops of tape, swung with them.

We were pressed extremely closely together, face-to-face, with more tape joining us at the waist, upper torso, neck and heads. Our breasts were squashed together, the skimpy tops shifted aside by the constant groping that occurred while we were being bound following our capture.

Our skirts had been tugged up and held there under the tape, allowing everyone to see our panties wedged up into our buttcheeks by the crotch belt straps that now supported most of our weight.

Wedged between our legs, the boys left a vibrator buzzing at the maximum setting. We were pressed so close against each other that it touched against both our pussies, although in my struggling it had shifted enough that I now bore the brunt of it.

Our arms were wrapped around each other and taped behind each other's backs. Amber had started groping and slapping my ass when she realised how much encouraging cheering it drew from the onlooking sorority sisters. We could hear them jeering a cruelly short distance away at the sorority house. The blindfolds didn’t let us know exactly how many.

“Gggmmph!”

Finally, we had a ring gag. Just one ring gag. It had two sets of straps, one for each of us. Our lips both wrapped around the ring, keeping us lip-locked in a kiss. Amber had been playfully sticking her tongue into my mouth. I think she was also doing that for the attention of the crowd, not realising that they obviously couldn’t see it.

We had been hanging from our lamppost like this for over an hour. It was bad enough that I had already lost my chance to join the sorority, I couldn’t believe I had to suffer the entire remainder of the challenge like this. If it wasn’t for Amber I’d be relaxing with new friends right now, not swinging bound and half-naked for their amusement.

I heard a feminine voice from below us nearby.

“You’re right, those are other pledges. I think that’s Nina’s butt being felt up. Oh wow, look at what the boys been put between their le-MMPH!!!!”
