A Quick Recap.

With Babayka-Lives coming back online hopefully in the next week or two, I thought before it does, it might be a good idea to have a quick recap of the story so far. Maybe the most fun way to do this is to head over to Babayka-Lives on Tapastic and relive those early pages again on there. But for those who want an even quicker and easier way, here’s a quick recap to bring you up to speed for when the story does return very shortly.

Previously on Brides Of Babayka…

Chapter One: A small group of six English men are met at a Russian airport by a mysterious and beautiful young girl named Yana. The men are four bachelors and two company chaperones visiting Russia for the weekend in search of potential Russian Brides. Yana herself claims to be working for a small Russian business called ‘Brides Of Babayka.’ Taken deep into the wilderness, they find themselves arriving at a large secluded house, tucked away at the bottom of a hillside quarry. The men are shown to their rooms and told they will be guests at a party later that night where they will be introduces to the girls, and that the hotel only has one other guest who resides in the room at the end of the hall. While preparing for that night, one bachelor (Kevin Moon) finds a human tooth on the floor of his bathroom after retrieving a dropped razor blade. The party starts, and one of the bachelors called Ben Plug introduces himself to a pretty blonde girl named Alina, who he has been corresponding with over the internet. While another one of the bachelors (a very young, good looking man called Julian Webb), appears to be a big hit with the ladies. Later that night during the party, the forth bachelor (an elderly man named Colin Mack) is suddenly taken ill after accepting a drink earlier from Yana. Senior company chaperone (Barry Conner) instructs the younger chaperone (Ronald Blake) to take the old man to bed, but Yana quickly offers to have two of her girls handle Mr Mack for them instead. Weak and dizzy, the old man is led upstairs by two of the girls (Vera and Zoya), but is not taken back to his room, but rather the room at the end of the hall where their mystery guest resides. Once locked inside, the old man is set upon by something sinister hiding in the shadows.

Chapter Two: The morning after the big party finds Ben waking up next to Alina after spending the night together. The bachelors are meant to be going on a hike and picnic with the girls, but Ben quickly blows off the offer to spend the day with Alina. Blake tries to check on Mr Mack to see if he’s feeling better after falling ill the previous night, but is intercepted by Yana, who says she has just spoken with the old man, and he’d rather stay behind and sleep in and join them later. The girls and bachelors set out for their picnic, and much to the annoyance of Kevin Moon, the girls are again swooning and ganging around the young Julian Webb. The group treks through a broken landscape of deserted homes and abandoned farm land until they find a clearing to have their picnic. Back at the hotel, Ben and Alina decide to get up and get some breakfast. While heading downstairs, Ben informs Alina that he has already booked a room at his favourite Sci-Fi TV show themed convention, which they could use, if she accept his marriage proposal. Rather then answer him, though, Alina shouts out to a figure standing behind Ben in the dark. Zoya, clad in a plastic bodysuit, emerges and violently strikes and kills a shocked Ben Plug with a sledgehammer. Meanwhile back at the picnic, a rainstorm breaks out, forcing everyone to start fleeing back to the hotel, as Alina and Zoya take Ben’s body into the room at the end of the hall, and try and clean up the kill scene. The group returns to the hotel all wet, and Yana suggest they get dried off, and get ready for the Bachelors leaving party that night. On his way back to his room, Kevin Moon again finds a human tooth (this one having belonged to Ben Plug), but Moon is unaware he is being watched by Yana and Vera as he studies it.  

Chapter Three: The leaving party is in full swing, and again Julian is centre of attention amongst the ladies, and openingly mocking Kevin to the amusement of the young girls. Blake meanwhile tries to check on Colin, but finds his door locked and can get no answer from inside. While leaving the party briefly to use the urinal, Julian in the meantime is ambushed by Kevin Moon in the bathroom. Intent on beating Julian up for stealing the limelight and mocking him, Kevin is left furious when Julian quickly talks his way out of any walloping with the threat of legal action, and Moon storms out the toilet in a foul mood, his bloodlust unabated. Leaving the party, Kevin finds Alina creeping about upstairs and decides to take his anger out on her, after it transpires that Alina had ignored Kevin’s attempts to engage with her over the internet before this visit. Kevin’s attack is short lived though, as he is knocked out from behind by Yana with a glass bottle. Yana instructs that Moon be taken to her room, and that they also “fetch the bladder.” Back at the bar, Blake approaches Conner and insists he helps him try and get an answer out of Colin. Begrudgingly Conner agrees, leaving Blake to supervise a now Bachelorless party. Up in Yana’s room, Moon starts to wake. While he was passed out, the girls have tied him to a chair sitting in the middle of a large sheet of plastic wrap. Yana berates Moon over his un-gentlemanly conduct, before using a knitting-needle to force a leather bladder up inside Moon’s head through his right nostril. Any pleading from Moon is ignored, as a foot pump is used to inflate the bladder, crushing Moon’s brain against the inside of his skull and killing him. Yana instructs that the girls wait a couple of hours, before cutting up and moving the body to the room at the end of the hall.

And that’s where we got to, as I move closer-and-closer to getting Babayka-Lives back online. What will become of Blake, Conner and Webb? Will they escape The Brides Of Babayka? And the most important question of all… are you ready to take a trip into the room at the end of the hall and meet the monstrous Babayka?
