The Red Rock City was holding its breath; it had been for over a year. Ever since the explosion had rocked the Citidel and left the metropolis, and much of the US without their greatest defenders the Supervillains owned the streets. The Government had tried to enact martial law, but the National...

Puzith smiled, an action that looked more predatory than pleasant, and took her hand in his. "How precious that you already understand who I am." He waved his hand and the lights in the hall flickered briefly and a chill overtook the air. The demons that had been in the hall dissolved into...

"This is for your own good kid." Banner said, securing the cuffs on Thane in the portable holding cell, "And, fun fact, this is modeled after the device used to contain the Winter Soldier. How fun is that?" Thane just glared at him. "Tough Crowd." Banner said, turning away. Thane twisted his...

Canisters of teargas landed in front of the assembled crowd, their contents spewing into the air. Several of the protesters in makeshift gas masks and protective gear surged forward to try and douse them before they filled the air with its caustic payload. They poured water on them or kicked...

Puzith took Decthalia's forearm in his hand and gripped it. "Prepare yourself love." He whispered with a glint of amusement in his eyes. Ethereal golden bands appeared around their wrists; they shimmered like a mirage in the desert and glowed like the stars. Warmth radiated from them, the first...

Puzith took his place next to her, and reached out and placed a hand on her hand. His skin was cold to the touch, as though he were a cadaver. Flecks of blood stained his white skin and a droplet rolled off his hand onto the bouquet of flowers. The dark priest began to speak in a language not of...

Your description of their actions sounds very similar to someone else that I knew who would do similar things. They would take the role of their character in everyday life and then would have no memory. My friends and I thought she was just being silly, but then she was diagnosed with...

Flocien took a step forward to Puzith and extended a handkerchief to his master, who took it and delicately dabbed the blood away from his mouth and lips. The Demon Lord was grinning from ear to ear, a bright twinkle in his black eyes. He turned to Decthalia and motioned for her to approach...

Puzith released his grasp on her face and smiled, "We are going to have such fun, aren't we my sweet?" He turned to face the rest of the hall and held his hands wide, "Let us not forget why we're here. It is time for my wedding!" He clapped his hands and the demons of the hall began to rearrange...

The creatures in that populated the hall began to snicker as she trembled and nodded her head in response. The crowd seemed to be attempting to hold back their mirth until Puzith himself began to join in with the laughter. At first it was a reserved chuckle that encouraged everyone to laugh a...

The little creature bowed to you and snickered into his sleeve as he said, "M'Lady. His High Cruel Lordship demands your presence for your Unholy union." He reached out and grabbed the hem of her dress and began to pull her along in the dark hallways, muttering to himself. "Xrater, Xrater...

Merce was quiet for several seconds, but took a shaky breath and said, "I don't know where the children are. For all I know they're dead. He would always tell me they were disappointments to him." A soft knock on the door resounded through the room, and a voice outside announced, "My ladies...

Merce's dead eyes looked over Decthalia, "Every bride of Puzith eventually gives him what he wants." With slow movements she turns her back and picks through the clothing, "Some are more stubborn, and they're the ones that suffer the most. The woman before me was only 17 when she arrived at this...

Merce lead Decthalia through the castle, pausing only to pick up a hooded lantern from the wall and light it with practiced ease using a candle. She kept a hurried pace, trying to return to Puzith as quickly as possible. "Walk faster m'lady." She chided, turning her head to look at Decthalia...

The rest of the day flew by in a blur. The four ninja, employing all of their speed and stealth, ate through the distance between their starting point and Konoha. There were a few close calls that resulted in them avoiding the situation and adding a bit more time to their journey, but in the...

The walk from his office to the bakery was short and James quickly traversed the distance. He kept his hands in his pocket and stared down at the pavement the entire walk while the nervousness from the week came to a rolling boil. "What are you doing?" He repeated to himself over and over as he...

Shi Jun hadn't heard anything the sheriff had said before he had been killed, not that it would have made any difference. "No, I didn't hear. That name mean something to you?" He ensured the board he was nailing in place was secure before reaching out to grab another one. Outside in the storm...

"I know." Puzith purred, stepping forward and offering her is hand. The illusion to the hall was replaced and the decorations and light reappeared. The lowest demons returned to their previous appearance of party-goers. The music began again, a brash cacophony of drums, trumpets, and a piano...

The Demon Court watched in abject fascination at the scene below them, each of them with contemptuous grins adorning their faces. No help would come for her this night, nor the nights to come. Watching their Lord use his brides as playthings was one of the best perks of the job. Puzith stood...
