Prologue
Dianastrode forward with purpose, though she had lost any sense of it longago. She could feel the raw energy of the eldritch realm bleeding outfrom her body, tearing holes in the fabric of time and space. She hadbeen warned so many times on her limits as a human and she grippedher pistol tightly in anger. But damn it had felt good to kill thebastard at the time, she holstered the weapon, looking up as a carfell through a rift and de-materialized in front of her in a blast ofcosmic colour.
“Youhave to fight this, you can’t let the power dominate you” came avoice she couldn’t recognise now. She put it from her mind as morelatent power tore free, wracking her body with pain and searing aburning line through the carpet, the glass windows of the hallwayturning into demons at its mere touch and beings of mind bending formpoured forth... perhaps sent by Tor Ganoth. With a stray thought shedestroyed them all. Power was raging within her uncontrollably andshe knew that any moment now it would erupt and the elder gods wouldfinally know she was ready... especially him. Then she would have achoice, to kill them all and lose what remained of herself, or joinwith one of them and save what remained of her at the cost of theuniverse itself. Neither seemed a great option she thought,collapsing to her knees, her duster falling away, blasting intonothingness in the maelstrom of power swirling around her.
Shecouldn’t keep back the surge any longer, her power blasting forth,ripping open the last barriers of reality and sucking the castlesremnants into the void of nothingness. As she thought, he was thefirst to find her, his visage both disgusting and beautiful to her.The being that had kept her pure all these years.
“Mylove... I had thought this day would never arrive. Yet we both knewit would eventually”.
RezKiall Vas shrank down from his terrifying demonic visage, a mass ofteeth, tentacles and wings into the being she remembered. A perfectmale form that walked through the great maelstrom of power withoutbeing ripped out of existence, his now long raven hair swirlingaround him.
He kneltbefore her, fondling her exposed breasts, it was strange that shehadn’t noticed the last of her clothing being destroyed and It madeher angry beyond measure, she had loved that hat.
Heplaced the hat back on her head, laying it over her curly red hair.It was her hat of course, just simply taken from another point intime... another reality perhaps, at this point it didn’t even matter.He leaned forward and kissed her tenderly on the lips, she wasbecoming aroused, she couldn’t deny it, and in a way she had alwaysboth loved and hated him equally for his protection.
“Soare you ready to join with me Diana, as you promised so long ago...or will you kill me. I know that there is no other choice left toyou” he said softly as she looked down at his erection, spreadingher legs apart as he licked his lips greedily.
“Togetherwe will be so much more Diana, the others will fall in line with usor be destroyed. From the first moment I found you in the universe, Iknew we were destined to be together at this very moment” he toldher, running his hand down her thigh, teasing her.
“Iwant to... but there’s also a third way” she said sadly, powerroaring around them as she stroked his beautiful face, running herother hand along his length, seeing his face contort in pleasure.
“Iknow my love, but the outcome will be the same... this will always bethe end scenario for you Diana” he replied calmly with a sigh,backing away.
She toreopen a rift in time and threw herself through it with abandon,wondering if this was the first time this event had happened. Heshouted something after her, but she couldn’t hear him now... timewas a strange thing.
