B-17: A Mini Epic
by Artura Cubacub and Sarah Weis
Sarah And Yumi are top-secret sex slaves for a high ranking government official. They spend their days in a bizarre play-pen/torture chamber/slave-labor station, where they produce pro-war polo shirts by han and live in constant fear. Tumi, having lived in the cell the longest, is almost completely brainwashed and paralyzed, but Sarah still posseses enough spunk to try to escape. Her impulsive scheme is thwarted by a few terrifying obstacles... will Sarah's inner courage be enough to save the day?
