Chronicles of Eden - Act VII

by Alexander Gordon

  “That’s not possible,” Apoch said shaking her head in disbelief.

  “How strong is her power?” Astreal cursed as she struggled to push all her swords forward. The blades were unable to budge towards Ember in the least as the floating scorched bits of metal held them back effortlessly.

  Ember slowly glanced around at the blades which were held back from striking into her from all sides then glared at the sisters while her flames continued to burn and swirl around her. Apoch stared in shock at her then watched as Ember’s dark blade clanged against her shield once more then flew straight down out of sight.

  “What… where did-” she said before Ember’s sword crashed upward through the stone steps and struck through Astreal. The witch let out a quick scream before she was cleaved in two by the blade, blood splattering out to the sides and onto Apoch’s shirt as she watched in horror her sister being bisected.

  “SISTER!” she shrieked as Astreal’s remains dropped to the ground and tumbled down the stairs in a bloody mess. Ember smirked slightly while Astreal’s swords wavered then dropped down, some of them clanging against the steps while the rest fell towards the court below before they all vanished.

  “Did you honestly expect to kill me?” Ember derided as she summoned all her charms back towards her extended hand. The metal bits and pieces slid onto the bracelet again before she fastened it with a simple click.

  Apoch looked to her with shock then to the dark blade which hovered towards her with Astreal’s blood dripping from it. The witch slowly backed away up the stairs while staring at it with terror before tripping and dropping her staff. She turned to crawl away quickly before freezing in place with wide eyes as Ember slowly walked down towards her. The ground beneath the Hellfire Witch scorched with flames licking her feet and burning the stones briefly as she made her way towards the frightened witch sister.

  “Did you really think such low class witches could stop me?” Ember scoffed as she walked up and stood before Apoch. The frightened witch trembled in fear then jumped with a high squeak as she felt Ember’s sword poking her ass. She slowly looked back to see the dark blade floating in place while glowing with a soft crimson hue then up towards Ember as the dark witch smirked at her.

  “How did you come back? I killed you two.”

  Apoch remained silent while staring at the witch with fear and frustration.

  “Answer me. How did you come back from the dead?” Ember asked again with a raised eyebrow.

  Apoch breathed out something, her words very quiet and shaky while she trembled on her hands and knees.

  “What was that?” Ember questioned tilting her head.

  “Go… to hell,” Apoch softly said while breathing shakily.

  Ember let out an amused murmur with a bitter smile then glanced over to where Astreal’s remains were at the base of the stairs.

  “Are you two going to come back again?”

  “Yes. We will always come back,” Apoch replied while forcing a brave face. “We shall return to kill you again.”

  “I see,” Ember said turning her sights back onto the witch before her. “Then you should know that you’ll always die. No matter how you come back, or how many times you come back, you shall always die.”

  “Death means nothing to us,” Apoch snapped while baring her teeth slightly.

  “How about pain?” Ember quipped.

  Apoch let out a sharp gasp as her eyes widened, her mouth opening with a hoarse cry as Ember’s sword started to push forward into her. Blood ran down her thighs onto the steps as the blade carved its way slowly into her from behind.

  “Remember the pain,” Ember taunted as Apoch looked up to her with eyes wide in shock, tears dripping from them as her body shook slightly. The dark blade pushed further into her while her legs quivered before a crunch was heard, with Apoch jerking back then with a weak groan as she felt the weapon digging through her.

  “Remember what awaits you should you find me again,” Ember said as Apoch’s eyes lost focus. She jerked slightly as blood poured down between her legs before the sword pushed up through her throat and out of her mouth. Her neck was sliced open by the large blade while the tip of the dark weapon protruded out between her lips with blood dripping down her chin.

  “Remember that,” Ember scoffed before waving her hand away. The dark blade swung back with Apoch skewered onto it before slamming her down onto the stairs. Her body tore off the blade and tumbled down the steps with blood coating the bricks under her, slowly rolling and collapsing down atop her sister’s remains while Ember watched with a dark glare. She waved her hand to the side and summoned her blade back over to her, taking hold of it and striking it into the steps by her feet as fire once again flared up around its handle and her hand.

  “Nothing shall keep me from finding Alyssa,” she vowed to herself, eyes looking up at the sky while dust and cinders flew by in the wind. “I shall have my revenge, and all those who get in my way will die.”

  With that she waved her hand to the side, erupting a large torrent of fire around her that burned wildly. After a moment the flames parted and dispersed in the breeze, revealing the witch to be gone once again. Shortly after the stairs collapsed while another nearby stone column dropped down kicking up more ashes and smoke.

  As the wind blew through the ruins and took the large dust cloud out towards the nearby valley Apoch and Astreal’s focusers and staves began to turn to dust and crumble apart, the magical relics vanishing completely while the bodies of the sisters remained after having been struck down by the powerful witch.

  Inside the caravan Triska slowly took off her shirt and gazed at the clothing while deep in thought. She eyed the apparel Kitten had chosen to wear on her body while slowly coming to grips about the serious change she had undergone.

  ‘I’m not human anymore. I’m just like Alyssa and the others, I’m a monster.’

  “You’re more than that,” Kitten mentioned, earning a glance from Triska as she stood beside the girl within her own mind. “Those others are weaklings compared to us. I’m not sure how much of my power you possess, but even a fraction of what I have would put you above those other girls without a doubt.”

  ‘I don’t know whether to be proud about that or not,’ Triska thought as she looked down at her skirt then the shirt in her hands. ‘It’s so strange. I should be freaking out, I should be devastated that I changed the way I have. Yet… I don’t feel like it’s that bad.’

  “Why would it be bad? Again, you’re more powerful now than you were before. What could be wrong with any of this?”

  “Triska?” Daniel asked as he gently held her from behind. “Are you alright?”

  “My back… can you see my wings?” Triska wondered with a worried tone.

  Daniel tenderly parted her hair and slowly ran his fingers along her back, not seeing or feeling a scar or even a bump from where the demonic extensions had retracted into.

  “No, there’s nothing back here. Not even a mark,” Daniel assured her.

  “I kissed all of you, and none of you were charmed. I don’t have her wings or tail, but I do possess her strength and maybe the rest of her magic. I may not be a succubus, but I’m still a cambion. Daniel… shouldn’t I be upset about this?” Triska asked as she turned to face him with doubt. “I mean, I’m a monster now. I was turned into something inhuman. So why is it that… I don’t care that much about it?”

  “Because you’re still you,” Daniel answered as he held a hand to her chin and kept her gaze on him. “Triska, you’ve been accepting of monsters just as I have throughout this journey. Maybe not as much at first, but certainly now more than ever. You see them as equals, you even have some as your lovers. You may have changed slightly on the outside, but you haven’t at all on the inside.”

  “That’s not true,” Triska dryly remarked as she glanced over to see Kitten staring at Daniel with loving eyes. “I’ve got a demon’s spirit inside of me now.”

  “Th
at you chose to keep because you wanted to give her a chance,” Daniel reminded her. “You could have killed her, Triska. You could have killed her spirit and have been rid of her presence altogether. But you didn’t, you didn’t hold her inner nature against her even after all the bad things she did. Doku was right, you have a great spirit within you. Being part monster doesn’t change that at all.”

  Triska smiled and looked down bashfully, hands fidgeting with her shirt before she saw Alyssa, Specca, and Squeak sitting on the bed watching them with curious smiles.

  “He’s right, Triska,” Specca agreed. “You being a cambion doesn’t change who you are at all. I think that’s why you’re so accepting of it. It doesn’t alter who you really are.”

  “Now you’re one of us,” Alyssa giggled. “It’s not so bad, is it? Now Daniel has all monsters for his harem, it balances out nicely this way.”

  “I thought we weren’t going to call it that,” Daniel weakly spoke up with a tired smile.

  “Daniel, you’ve been having sex with us four every day,” Specca mentioned with a smirk at him. “And you have four others waiting to be a part of that as well who you love just as you do with us. If this is not what you would call a harem then what would you call it?”

  “I’d… rather not answer that,” Daniel sighed in defeat.

  “It really doesn’t bother any of you knowing I have a demon inside of me?” Triska worriedly asked.

  “She’s not our mate or friend in the least,” Alyssa firmly answered, then showed a giddy smile and hopped across the bed before leaping off and hugging Triska around the waist. “But you’re not her. Plus you beat the shit out of her, if anything she’s your bitch and not Daniel’s. You can keep her in line, I’m sure of it.”

  “Fuck you!” Kitten shouted out at the witch, with Triska giggling and glancing to her with a slick grin.

  “That is true. Hell, you all beat her up pretty good. She really isn’t so tough after all.”

  “You know, I’m trying to be nice and help you out here,” Kitten flatly reminded her with a dull glare. “Don’t push it with me. I’ll admit you were all pretty strong in that spirit place the dumb bird sent us into, but out here in the real world I’m still the queen over all of you when it comes to true power. Don’t forget that.”

  Triska rolled her eyes from that then looked down at her body as Alyssa sat back on the bed with a curious expression, everyone watching as Triska slowly ran her hands down along her chest to her stomach before going behind towards her lower back. She didn’t feel anything where her tail was before, her body felt the same to her as it did before Kitten existed, yet she still knew very well that she wasn’t the same at all.

  “I feel normal, but I’m sure I’m anything but normal now,” Triska softly admitted.

  Alyssa eyed her over carefully then stood up and put her hands on the teen’s waist. The group watched as she slowly moved her fingers around the girl’s hips and thighs while circling her. She hummed with a cautious tone then pulled down Triska’s skirt and panties before she reached in between her legs, electing a quick gasp from Triska as she felt the witch now fingering her.

  “Alyssa!” Triska exclaimed looking back to her with a blush on her cheeks. “What are you doing?”

  “Oh my, is that normal?” Alyssa asked, with everyone jumping in surprise as she held Triska by the hip and pushed her fingers in deeper. Triska held back her voice and bit her lip as her hips trembled, feeling both aroused and also concerned from Alyssa’s actions.

  “W-What is it?” she nervously stuttered.

  “Daniel, you need to check this out,” Alyssa urged Daniel. He walked up next to the witch and reached in between Triska’s legs, the girl then squealing as she felt Daniel pushing his fingers into her while Alyssa slowly pulled hers out and rubbed them along the girl’s clit.

  “What’s wrong?” Specca worriedly asked.

  Squeak held a hand over her mouth and squeaked something with a nervous expression while Alyssa eyed Triska’s dripping thighs cautiously.

  “Do you feel that?” Alyssa asked glancing to Daniel.

  “What is it? What’s wrong?” Triska blurted out while her legs wobbled.

  There was a long silence as Alyssa kept a close eye on Triska’s rear before she smirked and glanced up at her.

  “You’re soaking wet.”

  Triska blinked then looked at the witch with a stunned face and open mouth as Alyssa and Daniel smiled amusedly at her.

  “You’re right, I do feel that,” Daniel agreed, causing Triska to blush more before moaning softly while her legs started to feel weaker. “Triska, you’re dripping wet.”

  “I thought she repressed her succubus half,” Alyssa mused before moving her fingers towards Triska’s ass and pushing two in. Triska hopped with a gasp and stumbled back before Daniel caught her with one arm while continuing to move his fingers about inside her.

  “Wait, what are you doing?” Triska breathed out as she glanced back to Daniel with weary eyes.

  “Oh my, is this normal?” Alyssa giggled. “Triska, are you always this horny? Or is that only because there’s a succubus in you now?”

  “Triska, is that true?” Specca mused as she and Squeak moved closer with immoral smiles. “Are you usually so eager like this, or is that demon inside of you to blame?”

  “I… I… um…” Triska stuttered as she closed her eyes and fell back into Daniel’s hold.

  “She’s really tight now too,” Alyssa mentioned while moving her fingers around in the girl’s darker hole. “I don’t recall her being this tight and perverted before. She’s really excited now, yep yep.”

  “Triska?” Daniel playfully asked as the girl leaned her head back and shakily breathed in and out with a blush on her face.

  “I don’t… I just…” Triska got out before clenching her teeth to hold in her moan.

  “I say,” Specca wondered as she and Squeak got off the bed and stood closer to Triska. “We’d best find out if she’s truly back to her normal self or not.”

  “What do you mean?” Triska wearily asked her. “It’s me… I’m back…”

  Daniel moved her forward and lightly pushed her onto the bed, the girl bouncing on it and turning around to see her mates watching her with immoral intentions as she tried to steady her breathing.

  “Let’s find out how much of a demon she really is,” Alyssa mused as she tossed her hat to the side.

  “We’ll have to examine every square inch of her carefully,” Specca reasoned as she loosened her tie.

  Squeak nodded and squeaked something while slipping off her gloves and toiling her fingers around in a provocative manner.

  Triska smiled a bit at seeing her mates getting ready to ravage her then noticed Kitten sitting on the bed near her, the demon merely watching her with a raised eyebrow and a dull expression while her tail slowly waved about behind her.

  “Great, now I have a demon watching everything I do,” Triska muttered.

  “Don’t worry about her, Triska,” Daniel said as he took off his vest. Triska turned to him as he removed his shirt and slowly got onto the bed with the three monster girls at his sides.

  “She only gets to watch, not play.”

  Outside the other girls were taking the quiet break they had to recover and talk while Daniel and his girls were inside for some quality time with each other. Clover was leaning against the wheel of the caravan while aiming an arrow around the area with a dull expression, not firing anything but merely doing so while thinking to herself.

  “I’m never getting home at this rate,” she mumbled before lowering her bow and looking down at the ground with a grunt.

  Sitting atop the caravan in the front Falla and Luna were looking around at the surrounding landscape while their legs leisurely dangled about in front of the black curtain into the cabin.

  “I hope Triska can keep control over that damned demon,” Falla said before shivering from the thought.

  “Do you think Kitten
can learn to be good too?” Luna asked curiously. “If we all did then can’t she?”

  “I really doubt a demon can be a kindhearted girl, Luna.”

  “But she gave Triska back her body because she chose to. She didn’t have to, but she wanted to. Doesn’t that mean she wants to be good?”

  “Luna, you can’t be so trusting of demons. Witches are more trustworthy than they are and even with them you can’t be too careful.”

  “But Alyssa is a witch and we trust her. She’s a really good girl.”

  “Yes, and Kitten turned us all into slaves and nearly killed Daniel. She’s a bad monster.”

  “We were going to be bad too, Falla,” Luna softly reminded her with remorse. “We were… going to rape him a lot before we learned to be better.”

  “We weren’t going to kill him though,” Falla argued at her.

  “You were going to let the nightmare kill the other girls just to have him.”

  “You’re never going to let that go, are you?” Falla flatly asked her before dropping back onto the caravan with a sigh. “I’m sorry, okay? How many times do I have to keep saying that? I’m sorry I even considered letting all the girls here die just so I could rape Daniel. There, happy?”

  Near the caravan Lucky was grazing on some tall grass while next to him Kroanette was gently brushing the horse with a calm smile on her face. In her bosom Pip was snuggled in with her head poking up between the large mounds, a cheery smile on her face while she giggled to herself and enjoyed being enveloped by the centaur’s assets.

  “You’re serious?” Doku asked beside her, the harpy having a look of wonder on her face while Cilia remained nestled in between her breasts with a happy smile. “Daniel wishes to instill peace between man and monster in Eden? That’s why you’re all out here with him like this?”

  “That’s correct,” Kroanette answered while looking around at The Outerlands with a proud smile. “I was skeptical at first, believe me. Actually we all were, every one of us were surprised when we found Daniel and Triska chasing after such a radical idea. But he’s right. We can live together peacefully if we only try.”
