ONE NIGHT WITH THOUSANDS
The thousands of souls that were kept inside of Ermac's body had never been buzzing with so much emotion. The thoughts of his true love would strike his mind so beautifully that he often took time to stop, blush, and let a shiver run down his spine. He had never felt like this before. Ermac had felt many feeling, of course, but none of those feeling were love. Being the perfect warrior for Shao Kahn meant that he never had the need for such emotions. His loyalty to the Kahn was emotionally enough to make him feel good and accomplished.
Now, loyalty wasn't enough. This feeling that began to flutter in his stomach like a million butterflies dancing, then, ever so gracefully, travels throughout his body, skidding across his spine like they were giving him chilled kisses, then he would close his eyes in pure satisfaction and his cheeks would burn a slight red due to the thought of the heat of passion. His mind would be crowded with thoughts of sharing intense intimate moments and he wouldn't be able to focus. It was, without a shadow of a doubt, obvious to see that Ermac was in love.
His souls would sing out of tune in a sentimental serenade for his dearly beloved. He would do anything for his lover, buy anything, sell anything, kill anything just for them.
At midnight they had both agreed to sneak out to see each other. The cool air had brushed against his skin and the dark sky was twinkling with the beautiful stars he knew his beloved loved to gaze at. Traveling past tall trees and long grassy field with fireflies that gave the night a more romantic glow. It was a while before Ermac had reached the area the they would meet. He peaked behind a tree to see the cool crystal blue lake shimmering from the reflection of the stars and his lover sitting on the edge, dipping their foot into the lake gently. The sight of them made his heart skip a beat and his souls go crazy with admiration and lust. He got out of his hiding spot and began advancing towards them before they turned around and saw him. With him in sight, they smiled wide before getting up, running at him and hugging him. Ermac stumbled back a bit and blushed at the affection.
"Ermac, I missed you!"
The words flowed just the right way to make Ermac blush even harder and look down at them. He slowly wrapped his arms around them, returning the hug. His hand on their head, playing with their hair and his other around their waist. Every one of his souls practically sighed out at the action. The warm embrace was just enough to have Ermac feel so loved. He then decided that he would rather spend all his days in the arms of his lover until the day he dies.
