A/N: This story is part1 of 2, it is meant to stand on its own, but there will be more in a month or so.
A/N: there are some places where (1/4) shows up, this is a fanfiction error and not one on my part, it is meant as an elipse (3 periods), nothing more, nothing less. ALSO some lines are joining where they should not, again a fanfiction error and not mine.
A/N: I had another version of the written up, I like this better. I reworked the story slightly and made it more factual (well, as factual as a fictional story can be)
A/N: I completed Thought's with parentheses and other author notes are written in brackets. (maybe this will give you more insight as to what is going through my head)

Morrigan Aensland likes to visit the human dimension from time to time.
Whenever she goes she visits only one man.
Morrigan takes the familiar walk to the house and knocks on the door, however unexpectantly a lady answers it.
Morrigan: Who're you?
Lady: I'm Lilly.
Morrigan: Aensland?
Lilly: Yea, how'd you know?
Morrigan: It's me, Morrigan, you know, the ruler of Makai.
Lilly: I see¼ What are you doing here?
Morrigan: Lilith, Steve is my boyfriend.
Lilith: He's my boyfriend.
Morrigan: My own sister... (stealing my boyfriend)
Lilith: He didn't say he had a girlfriend. I'm sorry.
Morrigan: We are succubi you know, we're irresistible.
Lilith: So how do you know he didn't have a girlfriend himself?
Morrigan: I asked him. I'm not trying to seduce him either; I've got a handle on my powers.
Lilith: You're lucky, I still don't.
Morrigan: What interest do you have in him?
Lilith: He'd be a nice addition to the ranks, he's strong and kind.
Morrigan: So you intend to sire my boyfriend?
Lilith: I didn't know about that. I won't be seeing him anymore then. -walks inside-
Donovan: Morrigan!
Morrigan: Great¼ Company¼
Donovan: I will kill you, and that will bring peace to this world!
Morrigan: Yea, kill me, then a murderous succubus takes my place. What peace are you talking about? I'm not here to hurt anyone.
Donovan: You must die!
Lilith walks back outside
Morrigan: Donovan, save it, or I'll be forced to do something to you.
Donovan persists and Morrigan defeats him with ease.
Morrigan: You gonna stop or do I have to kill you?
Donovan: For the humans, I'll fight forever.
Morrigan: I told you. -walks up to him- I'm not here to hurt anyone.
Donovan: With you only comes death and destruction.
Morrigan: With me comes peace, but you'll never see it. Sleep Donovan, sleep and dream, dream of me, and my defeat over you. -reaches to him and kisses him- This is the kiss of death. Goodbye Donovan. -Donovan turns into a skeleton-
Lilith: That was smart, Steve's watching you. How do you think he's gonna take that? His girlfriend can kill him with a kiss.
Morrigan: I doubt he'll take it well. Come on, let's explain this to him.
Lilith: I guess..
They walk inside and find Steve near the upstairs window.
Morrigan: I know you saw that. Please do not fear me. -walks toward him-
Steve: Go back to hell and stay away from me you nasty demon.
Morrigan: I'm not a demon, and I'm not from hell either.
Steve: Nobody has that kind of power.
Morrigan: You mean no human has it. As you have no doubt guessed by now, I'm not human.
Steve: Then take that Alien body of yours and stay away from me.
Morrigan: OK, I've had enough of that. -paralyzes Steve so he cannot talk or move- I know this scares you, but I need you to listen to what I'm telling you. I'm a succubus. It's a secret I've kept from you for a year now, but I want you to know I will never hurt you and I never had the intention to. I love you deeply, and I did since the first day I met you.
Morrigan releases him from the paralysis and he runs to Lilith.
Steve: I don't believe you.
Morrigan: I didn't think you would, but I tried anyway.
Lilith: It is a lot to take in you know.
Steve: Donovan was my best friend.
Lilith: Donovan was a Darkstalker, just like we are.
Steve: We? You're a succubus too?
Lilith: Yes, I am a succubus as well. My intent was to sire you, but I didn't know Mori was seeing you. She's special, and she chose you. My real name isn't Lilly, it's Lilith.
Steve: -quickly moves away from them both- I'm surrounded by demons... And best of all, the mother of all succubi.
Lilith: I'm not the same Lilith. She was killed nearly 200 years ago.
Steve: I have no reason to believe you.
Lilith: Oh yes you do. You think what she did was scary? Imagine how scary dealing with someone like me would be, I haven't got full control of my powers yet. Mori has mastered hers.
Morrigan: Well, I haven't mastered them yet, but I can control them.
Steve: What do you mean she's chosen me?
Morrigan: I love you. I have made sure you're protected. Even the most murderous of succubi have been near you only to keep you safe from other threats. I'm not any ordinary succubus. You don't have a girlfriend, you know just how many succubi like that?
Steve: I do not, and really don't care.
Morrigan: Really? Allow me to call them then.
Seconds later about 50 succubi surround Steve.
Steve: GET THEM AWAY FROM ME!
Morrigan: I thought you didn't care.
Steve: I do care, now get them away from here.
Morrigan: Alecia please stay, but the rest of you leave here.
They leave as ordered.
Morrigan: You see? I'm the one who keeps you safe. Alecia's a close friend.
Steve: Why's she just standing there?
Alecia: I have no reason to do anything. I'm not here because I want to be.
Steve: Why's that?
Alecia: She's the ruler of Makai, and she's the one that tells us what we can and cannot do.
Morrigan: I've never told you what to do, with the exception of leaving Steve alone. I don't order around my friends. Just because I have the rank doesn't mean I'm going to order you around.
Lilith: Steve, I know we frighten you, but we are nothing to fear.
Steve: They didn't look too friendly to me.
Lilith: I mean the three of us.
Alecia: Any friend of Morrigan's is a true friend and I'd die to protect them.
Steve: I've got a succubus bodyguard? That's interesting.
Q-bee suddenly bursts into the room.
Morrigan: Alecia, please take Steve back to Makai with you, and keep him safe.
Alecia: -walks up to Steve- We need to keep you away from Q. Please come with me. You can trust me.
Steve: She betrayed my trust, why wouldn't you? -backs away-
Alecia: Ok, We do this the way you hate. -paralyses Steve, grabs his arm, and they disappear-
Morrigan: I wish she wouldn't have done that. Can you take care of Q?
Lilith: Yea, I can. Go find Steve.
Morrigan: I'll see you when you return to Makai. -returns to Makai-
meanwhile+
Alecia: I'm sorry I had to do that. -releases Steve from the paralysis-
Steve: Stay away from me! -runs out of the room-
Steve darts randomly about the halls and runs into Yureki, a servant in the castle who looks human.
Yureki: Who're you?
Steve: -speaking very slowly and out of breath- Alecia..
Yureki: I see, follow me. -leads Steve to a room- go inside.
Steve: Thank you. -walks inside and Yureki closes the door-
Moments later Alicia and Yureki meet up.
Alecia: Did you come across a human?
Yureki: Yea, he's in your room.
Alecia: That's gonna freak him out. -runs to her room and steps inside-
Alecia walks up to Steve.
Steve: Stay back! -backs away from her-
Alecia: As you wish. I won't harm you. She brought you to my seduction room, this is where people go that I bring here for pleasure.
Steve dodges flames shooting out from the walls and floor.
Alecia: They won't hurt you, it's an illusion.
Steve: What are you gonna do to me?
Alecia: You're not here for me, you're here for Morrigan. I'm not going to anything but confine you till she arrives.
Steve: Where am I?
Alecia: You're in Aensland castle, in the heart of Makai.
Steve: I'm in an alternant dimension?
Alecia: Yes, you are in the home of succubi and other darkstalkers.
Steve: other darkstalkers?
Alecia: Werewolves, zombies, and vampires to name a few.
Steve goes to open the door that won't budge.
Alecia grabs his hand and pulls him back to her.
Steve: Let go of me!
Alecia: Do you want me to paralyze you again, or are you going to calm down?
Steve: Let me go!
Alecia: No, you can't be running around the castle, no one here knows who you are, and they will hurt you. There are thousands of succubi here. You're lucky that Yureki found you and not one of them. You just stay here and relax. I'm going to go find Morrigan. -walks to the door and closes it on her way out-
Morrigan runs into Alecia just a short way down the hall.
Morrigan: Where's Steve?
Alecia: He's In my room. Don't worry, I didn't to do anything bad to him. He ran off in a room that he could leave. Yureki found him.
Morrigan: Let's go.
Morrigan and Alecia walk into Alecia's seduction room where Steve is helpless to do anything.
Steve: Who are you?
Morrigan: My name's Morrigan Aensland, the succubus you have been with for the past year.
Steve: So you put a spell on me, and lied to me.
Morrigan: I've had issues with humans before, I met up with a demon slayer. Since then I've used a fake identity to protect myself.
Steve: Why did you kill Donovan?
Alecia: Donovan was a dhampir.
Steve: What's that?
Morrigan: A dhampir is half-human, half-demon. Many demons and incubi like to prey on humans.
Steve: What do you mean?
Alecia: Just like what I did to you, incubi can do it to women. Demons are just really aggressive.
Steve: What do you mean?
Morrigan: Incubi and demons rape women. That is how a dhampir is born.
Steve: Incubi rape women and succubi rape men...
Alecia: I do not rape men, I seduce them. This means I have their consent. I've been around a few attacks by incubi, they aren't pretty. I feel sorry for the women they target, they aren't gentle with them. At least we are nice to the men we choose. It's a real honor to be chosen by a succubus that is willing to stay with you. Most of us will be there one night and disappear for a month.
Steve: What do you mean?
Morrigan: I love you, I want you with me. Others just use humans for the energy they produce, it keeps us alive.
A lady knocks on the door to the room.
Alecia: Who's there?
Woman: Felicia. Morrigan, you there?
Morrigan: Yea, I'm here. -opens the door for Felicia-
Felicia walks in, she is covered in fur from head to toe and has a tail and pointed ears.
Morrigan closes the door behind her.
Steve: What are you?
Felicia: I'm a cat-woman. Werecat if you wish to think about it that way. I'm unaffected by Lycanthropy though.
Steve: Lycanthropy?
Morrigan: It's the disease that turns humans into were-creatures.
Steve: ok..
Morrigan: Steve, you can relax, no one here is your enemy.
Steve: I'm sorry about the trouble I've caused.
Morrigan: You didn't cause any trouble.
A lady floats into the room through the door.
Alecia: Hsien-Ko, how'd you.. Nevermind, you're a Kuang-Shi.
Hsien-Ko: Is this the guy that's been causing all the commotion?
Alecia: He's no trouble. He's actually a cool guy, once you get past his anger phase.
Morrigan: Well, there's a meeting in a little while. Steve, I want you to come to it with me.
Steve: A meeting of what?
Morrigan: A meting of the succubi.
Steve: You want to surround me with succubi?
Morrigan: I want to introduce you as my boyfriend officially, that is if you still wanna be.
Steve: I love you, I just wish you hadn't sprung that out on me without warning.
Morrigan: So do you trust me?
Steve: I've always trusted you, even though you didn't trust me.
Morrigan: I trust you with my life. I've left it in your hands more times than you know.
Steve: How old are you exactly?
Morrigan: I don't die from age, I'm 327 years old.
Steve: You're over 10 times my age, but you don't look a day over 25.
Morrigan: Than you.
Felicia: Funny, I am 25. A/N: I am unsure of her actual age, but this provides a small bit of humor
Morrigan: It's time for the meeting. Steve, stay by my side and don't freak out in the meeting, there's more than 5000 succubi attending. -opens the door-
Steve: With you by my side, I fear nothing.
They all walk out and head to the meeting.
A/N: I'm not even gonna try at writing one up, I couldn't even guess what they'd talk about. (even though I have an idea)
Everyone walks out except Morrigan, Steve and Alecia.
Morrigan: I hope you feel I didn't insult you, or your kind.
Steve: I'm a human, there's no getting around it.
Alecia: Well delivered message.
Morrigan: Thanks, I tried my best at it.
Steve reaches up to kiss Morrigan and she shoves him back into a chair.
Steve: What was that for?
Morrigan: I can't kiss you, or allow you to kiss me.
Steve: Why's that?
Alecia: They call a succubus's kiss the kiss of death, and for good reason. We consume your soul through your mouth. It looks a lot like a kiss to anyone who doesn't know exactly what is going on.
Steve: Why do you?
Alecia: When people insult me far too many times for me to want to count, or if they break a pact with me.
Steve: What happened?
Alecia: A man...
Morrigan: Alecia, a succubus's business is between her and her victim. No one else is allowed to know.
Steve: Well, all of this is new to me.
Morrigan: We cannot allow you into the most secret parts of our lives, not just yet. I will tell you later.
Steve: Alecia, I got a question.
Alecia: What is it?
Steve: When I was in your room alone the flames were shooting out in all directions at me, but once you told me it wasn't real they stopped. Why is that?
Morrigan: The rooms are feeling-sensitive. You were scared, so it threw more fear at you. When you knew they weren't real, you felt calm so the room calmed down as well.
Steve: What about the faces I saw in the flames?
Alecia: It's the people who's souls I took. They are bound to me, for all eternity.
Steve: Eternal rest.
Alecia: So some people call it. It's energy for which we feed on.
Steve: Do you do that as well Morrigan?
Morrigan: No, and I never did. I have a special condition, there's a spell on me that keeps me from getting weak. You can call me Mori you know.
Q-bee bursts into the room an heads strait for Morrigan.
Steve jumps in the way and Q stings him instead of her intended target.
Hsien-Ko floats into the room just as Q stings him.
Morrigan: Steve!
Steve: I.. won't.. live... long...
Morrigan: I will not allow you to die.
Steve: I... (Won't live long, do what) you... must... -lies motionlessly-
Hsien-Ko: My sting won't hurt, it'll just kill ya? That hurts most of all. We hope you die, you insensitive bitch.
Morrigan: Lei-Lei, that's a first outa you.
Hsien-Ko: Well, it's nothing but the truth.
Q-bee falls dead.
Morrigan: How do I bring him back to life?
Hsien-Ko: We don't know..
Zombie: -walks in- I do.
Morrigan: Tell me Zabel. -leans over Steve's body- I love you, I don't want to let you go, not ever. -starts crying-
Zabel: It's simple, really. Just put the Isis ring on his right hand. If you truly love him he'll wake up. If you don't he still will, but you'll die to feed his life. -leaves-
Morrigan: I... don't...
Hsien-Ko: You ok?
Morrigan: Yea I'm fine.
Hsien-Ko: You're afraid to die, Don't lie to us, you know I can see through them.
Morrigan: I feel love for him, but how do I know that I am in love with him, and not just using him for pleasure?
Hsien-Ko: You may be a succubus, but you can still fall in love with someone, and humans are the easiest to fall in love with. You've never had someone for pleasure. You're one of the most human people here.
Morrigan: I guess you're right, like always. -takes the Isis ring off her left hand and slides it on Steve's right-
Yureki rushes into the room as well as Felicia.
Yureki: Master, we have a problem.
Morrigan: What's our problem?
Yureki: Gallon's here.
Morrigan: Stop calling me master, Mori's fine. I asked John to come.
They walk out to meet Gallon at the door of the castle, leaving Alicia, Hsien-Ko, Felicia, and Steve alone in the room.
Steve wakes up a short time later, Alecia was leaning over him.
Steve: What the... oh, it's only you.
Alecia: You're alive.
Steve: -pushes Alecia away from his face and notices a ring on his hand- What am I wearing?
Hsien-Ko: -as if reciting from a book- The Isis ring, proof to leadership of the Aensland clan and rule of Makai.
Steve: I rule Makai and the Aensland clan? When'd that happen?
Alecia: You don't, Morrigan does.
Steve: Then why do I have it, and where's Mori?
Hsien-Ko: Mori went to meet up with a werewolf.
Steve: What happened to Q?
Alecia: She died, just after she stung you.
Morrigan and the werewolf walk into the room and find Steve walking around.
Morrigan: I'm so glad you're back amongst the living.
Steve: If you can really call this the living.
Gallon growls slightly, just enough to get Steve's attention.
Morrigan: John, cut it out. Steve, some of us have died before, but we're all alive now.
Steve: Who's that? -backs away-
Morrigan: You don't have to fear him either, his name's John Talbain, or Gallon as many call him. He's another friend of mine.
Steve: Here -takes the Isis ring off his hand and returns it to Morrigan- Thank you for bringing me back.
Morrigan: I never want to lose you, ever.
Hsien-Ko leaves
Steve: You're immortal, I'm not.
Morrigan: I can make you immortal, it'd involve siring you though.
Hsien-Ko rushes back into the room
Hsien-Ko: Mori, we've got a problem.
Morrigan: huh?
Hsien-Ko: There's another human here.
Morrigan: WHAT? Where is he? I've never brought anyone else here.
Hsien-Ko: He's in the dungeons.
Morrigan: Let's get down there.
They all rush down to the dungeons.
Morrigan: Are you alright?
Person: Who are you?
Morrigan: I am the ruler of this land. Who brought you here, and what is your name?
Person: I am Travis Moorely. The evil little witch that brought me here looked like you, but her hair was the color of fire.
Morrigan: My daughter.. Don't worry, I will return you to safety.
Travis: You are a succubus, are you not?
Morrigan: That I am.
Travis: Are you here to bring me to my final resting place? I'm weak and don't have the strength to resist you.
Morrigan: If you mean kill you, I am not. I, as a virgin leader, can free you.
Steve: Wait, you have a daughter, how could you possibly still be a virgin?
Morrigan: I will explain that to you later. -cuts her hand open- Travis, my blood can free you. Drink. -extends her bleeding hand to him-
Travis: But.. it's blood. -shudders slightly- What do you get from me? Will this corrupt my soul?
Morrigan: My blood has a special spell within it. I don't want you to suffer. I don't gain anything and you don't lose anything either.
Travis: What about her?
Alecia: I won't hurt you, you're weak. I like my prey strong.
Travis: -drinks a small portion and falls to the ground- No, you wish to kill us.
Morrigan: Would you like to die?
Travis: No.. (of course not)
Morrigan: Then don't worry, I will let no harm come to you. -picks him up- Alecia, would you mind to watch over him tonight?
Alecia: Why can't you just return him to his home?
Morrigan: If he doesn't have the strength to stand of his own free will, he will not have the strength to survive the trip which he would have to make.
Travis: I do not want to be here.
Morrigan: I'm sorry, but you have no choice.
Alecia: I'll take him if you want me to.
Morrigan: Watch him, don't let anyone get to him.
Alecia: I won't. -takes Travis from Morrigan- You can count on me. -leaves to her room-
Steve: Now will you tell me?
Morrigan: I don't like to talk about personal things in front of people I don't know.
Steve: I understand.
Morrigan: Berial was the leader before I was, he's my father. He knew of my dislike for the family business. He raped me and weeks later I became pregnant with his daughter. He named her Xalin. She shares his greed, and his hate for humans.
Steve: Your bond with your family is strong.
Morrigan: My hate for her is overwhelming.
Steve: If you had sex how are you still a virgin?
Morrigan: I didn't, I was raped. The only person I want to have sex with is you.
Steve: Wouldn't you just…? Nevermind.. Where would Alecia take Travis to keep him safe?
Morrigan: Her seduction room would be the safest place.
Steve: Travis is one of my closest friends.
Morrigan: We will not let him come to harm. You have my word on that.
Steve: Can I have a talk with him?
Morrigan: He's your friend, of course you can.
Morrigan leads Steve back to Alecia.
Morrigan: Alecia.
Alecia: We're busy.
Morrigan: What are you doing to Travis?
Alecia: Nothing that concerns you.
Morrigan: Everything concerns me here.
Alecia: I'll consume his soul if you don't shut up.
Morrigan pulls Steve's arm slightly.
Steve: You're not going to.. (let him die are you)
Morrigan: No, I'm not. - walks away-
Hsien-Ko meets up with Steve
Hsien-Ko: I know, don't worry, I won't.
Hsien-Ko floats through the door and binds herself to Alecia.
Alecia: You may come in.
Morrigan returns and opens the door.
Steve: Where were you?
Morrigan: I went to talk to Hsien-Ko.
They both walk inside.
Travis: Steve?
Steve: You ok?
Travis: Yes, I'm fine.
Steve: What was she doing to you?
Travis: She wasn't doing anything.
Morrigan: That's very strange of her... Lei-Lei, What was going through her head?
Alecia: I don't know.
Morrigan: You can release her mind, I'd like to have a talk with her.
Alecia: As you wish. -Hsien-Ko leaves Alecia's body-
Morrigan: Explain yourself!
Alecia: I am not Alecia. You will be mine Morrigan. -Reveals who is truly there- In exchange for your body, I will release him.
Morrigan: How many times must I tell you the you cannot have sex with me Ivan?
Steve: Friend of yours?
Ivan: She's my lover.
Morrigan: Former lover, now I hate him.
Travis: A lovers' quarrel, how interesting.
Morrigan: Travis, are you feeling better?
Travis: Yes.
Morrigan: I'm going to take you home then. Come here.
Travis: What about this guy?
Morrigan: If he so much as touches you I'll kill him.
Ivan: Humans mean nothing to me.
Travis walks to Morrigan.
Morrigan: I will be back really soon, if you hurt him I truly will kill you. -grabs Travis and they disappear-
Travis and Morrigan end up in Steve's mother's house.
Travis: Where are we?
Morrigan: I'm not sure where we are now, but we are close.
A lady walks into the room.
Lady: Who the hell are you?
Morrigan: -in a flash she changes to wearing a white t-shirt- I am Morrigan Aensland. Who, might I ask, are you?
Lady: You're Steve's girlfriend aren't you? I'm his mother.
Morrigan: I see.
Steve's mother: How'd you do that?
Morrigan: I'm a succubus, I can do a lot of dark magic.
Steve's mother: Get out of my house demon, go back to hell where you belong!
Morrigan: I'm not a demon! MY home isn't hell either.
Steve's mother: Then why are you here?
Morrigan: It's a long story, and I'll explain later. As of now, I'm taking Travis home.
Steve's mother: Where's Steve at?
Morrigan: He's in Makai, my home world.
Steve's mother: I've never heard of such a place.
Morrigan: That's because it's not in this dimension.
Steve's mother: I hope you aren't doing anything bad to him.
Morrigan: What makes you think I would? I'm not about harming humans.
Steve's mother: That's a real nice way of talking about us. You did take his dog didn't you?
Morrigan: You call us succubi, it isn't exactly a nice way of putting that either.
Steve's mother: You got a point there.
Morrigan: What kind of dog does Steve own?
Travis: She's an English Mastiff. I'll get her for you. Steve's house is on the way anyway.
Morrigan: Whatever..
They walk to Steve's house.
Travis: You can open the door can't you?
Morrigan: -turns the handle but it doesn't open- um.
Travis: I meant using your magic.
Morrigan: Didn't learn that one, I have no need for it. Hold on. -disappears-
Travis: Hey, where are you?
Morrigan: -opens the door- right here.
A dog walks up to them, barking wildly.
Travis: Riona, Relax.
Riona continues.
Morrigan mutters something and Riona lets out a yip.
Travis: What'd you do?
Morrigan: I took all the fight out of her.
Travis: You are strange, you know that?
Morrigan: Yea, well, most succubi wouldn't be talking. We are the most fearsome of all dark beings to human males. I am more about having fun.
Travis: I'll get her leash. -walks past Riona and clips her leash on when he returns- She's strong, don't let her pull at you too much.
Morrigan: Come on, let's get you home now.
They walk out the door, and to Travis's house.
Travis: You wanna come in?
Morrigan: No, I have to get back to Makai before Ivan does something to Steve.
Travis: Will I see you again?
Morrigan: You never know, I just might stop by.
Morrigan disappears and returns to Makai.
Steve: What did you do to my dog?
Riona: She hit me, hard.
Steve: Mori... (you better not have)
Morrigan: I didn't lay a hand on her.
Steve: Hey, she's talking.
Morrigan: Makai allows all creatures to communicate with each other.
Steve: Riona, What did she do?
Riona: She muttered something and I lost my will to fight her.
Morrigan: I didn't hurt her, I just made her more obedient. Riona, you can explore the castle if you want to, just don't bark at anyone.
Riona: I won't, this isn't part of my territory. -runs off-
Ivan: Now, join me Mora, we'll take over the worlds together.
Morrigan: I won't be taking over the worlds, nor joining you.
Ivan: Yes you will -mutters something and Morrigan walks to him-
Steve: Leave her alone!
Ivan: What are you gonna do, you pathetic human.
Steve: If you think you're so strong then let me kiss her.
Ivan: Do you wish to die?
Steve: I'm not afraid of death, and I know she won't kill me.
Ivan: She doesn't have a choice, but if you still wish to don't let me stop you. -steps back to create some distance between them-
Steve walks up To Morrigan and reaches to kiss her.
She evades his attempts.
Steve: Well?
Ivan: I'm not doing anything.
Steve: -lowers his voice to a whisper- Mori, hun, trust me, please.
Morrigan: -responds in the same voice level- I don't want to hurt you.
Steve: relax.
Morrigan: Don't make me.. (kiss you, you'll die)
Steve: You won't. It's my turn to save you.
Steve reaches up to her again and she meets him in a kiss.
Morrigan glows and seconds later Steve falls to the ground a mere skeleton and motionless.
Morrigan: Steve! -falls to her knees- I'm so sorry.
Ivan: Foolish human.
Morrigan: -jumps bolt upright- You can bring him back, so do so.
Riona walks back into the room and sees Steve on the floor motionless.
Riona: Morrigan... -sees Steve on the ground- Steve! -runs to his side- You ok? What did she do?
Morrigan: I didn't mean to.. (do this) I'm sorry Riona.
Ivan: He was foolish to try and overpower me.
Morrigan: This is all your fault Ivan, bring him back to me.
Ivan: Surrender to me and I will.
Morrigan: I'll find another way. Go to hell!
A/N: Makai is prestigious, and telling someone to go to hell is still a rather strong insult, or so my research has shown.
Ivan leaves
Riona: Are you sure you can?
Morrigan: Yes, There is, I know Zabel was brought back from death.
Steve: -weakly- I told you...
Morrigan: No one likes a showoff.
Steve: I.. had.. to.
Morrigan: Thank you. I won't let it go unrewarded.
Zabel walks into the room.
Zabel: Killed another one did ya?
Morrigan: He's not dead yet Zabel: What did you do?
Morrigan: It's not what I did, it's what Ivan did.
Zabel: What did he do?
Morrigan: He used mind control on me, and Steve kissed me.
Zabel: I'll see what I can do.
Morrigan: May I have a moment alone with him?
Zabel: He's your boyfriend, of course you can. -leaves the room-
Morrigan: -calls Nurani- Hey, can you come an watch Steve for me?
Nurani: Who's Steve?
Morrigan: He's my boyfriend, but he's really beat up. Ivan decided to show that ugly face of his again. Ivan isn't immune to you, is he?
Nurani: No, he's not, but Steve isn't either.
Morrigan: You can make him immune to that petrifying gaze of yours, you did with me.
Nurani: Yea, I can. I'll be over in a while.
Morrigan: ok. -hangs up- Riona, I want you to come with me to his mother's.
They hear a knock at the door.
Morrigan: Who's there?
Nurani: It's me.
Morrigan: Riona, look down and don't look up till I tell you it's safe to.
Riona looks down
Morrigan: Steve, close your eyes, until I do the same.
Steve closes his eyes.
Morrigan: Ok Nurani, you can come in now.
Nurani: A dog?
Morrigan: Steve's dog.
Nurani: That explains it. -walks to Steve and kisses him-
Morrigan: Ok Steve.
Nurani: What's the dog's name?
Riona: I'm Riona.
Nurani: Don't look at me, I can petrify you.
Riona: I won't.
Morrigan: Riona, let's go.
Riona: I don't want to leave Steve.
Morrigan: Once he's back to himself I will bring you back and you will never have to leave his side again. -creates a portal- walk forward.
Riona does as she is told.
Morrigan: Thank you Nuri.
Nurani: Anytime.
Morrigan walks through the portal and they arrive in Steve's mother's house.
Steve's mother: Morrigan?
Morrigan: Yea, that'd be me. Would you take care of Riona a while?
Steve's mother: I don't know how to take care of a dog.
Morrigan: Could you get used to a talking dog?
Steve's mother: Yea, I could try.
Morrigan: Ok -starts muttering something-
Riona: What are... (you doing?) I can talk?
Morrigan: -stops- for now, yea.
Riona: Thanks.
Morrigan: Try not to annoy her.
Steve's mother: She's not an annoyance. It'd just be awkward.
Morrigan: I'll show you how to summon me, should you need me.
Steve's mother: I will not do witchcraft.
Morrigan: It's only witchcraft if we do not consent to it. We are rather busy.
Steve's mother: We?
Morrigan: The sisterhood of the succubi. There are thousands of us.
Steve's mother: How will I know it's you then?
Morrigan: Here -hands her the Isis ring- this is my ring, place it in the center and then it will be directly to me.
Steve's mother: But couldn't they still come through?
Morrigan: No, I won't make it big enough. -sets up the spell- Vickey, if you can hear this call me. -phone rings- ok, it works, thanks. -hangs up the phone and blows out the candles- Don't light these unless you need me. Put the ring in first though. Make sure you call for Mori and not Morrigan, That's' what I'm called in Makai. I'm off to go kill Ivan.
Steve's mother: Who's Ivan?
Morrigan: Ivan was an old boyfriend of mine. He nearly killed Steve. I'm going to end his life before he hurts anyone else.
Steve's mother: c ya.
With that Morrigan left back for Makai and the hunt to find Ivan begins.
