This is a StarCraft fan fiction on the events directly after HOTS. It says a "what-if" story, and in this case the what if is Raynor being infested. This is my first fan fiction, so any inaccuracies or comments are highly appreciated!

MENGSK'S PALACE, KORHAL

Sarah Kerrigan, Queen of Blades, was standing on the now-sunroof area of Arcturus Mengsk's palace. Jim Raynor, leader of the Raiders, had literally gone through hell. He had been betrayed by Mengsk when he left Kerrigan to die, and then saved Kerrigan by de-infesting her, and then Kerrigan got infested again, and she had just made the Emperor of the Terran Dominions' head, and his entire being, to quite literally implode. She stood there for a minute. Then she turned and said, "Thank you, Jim." He responded without hesitation, "My pleasure, darlin'." As she flew away, Jim realized that he didn't WANT for them to be separated again. He called out, "Wait! Sarah!" Kerrigan stopped and looked down to Jim. "What is it?" He replied, without a thought, "I want to come with you!" Kerrigan was shocked. "B-b-but…you would have to be zerg to come with me. If you weren't, you would be torn to pieces!" Kerrigan knew that there was no truth in this, but she wanted Jim to herself, and for him to forget about the Raiders and Horner. She was that desperate that she would kill to keep Jim with her. Jim did not know that you didn't have to be zerg to go with Kerrigan, so he said something only a lovesick person would say. "Then make me like you!" Kerrigan was more than happy to comply.

2 HOURS LATER, KERRIGAN'S LEVIATHAN

"Abathur! Have you integrated my primal zerg DNA into Jim's cocoon yet?" Abathur, Chief of the Zerg Evolution, replied, "Yes, my queen. The drones have already woven the DNA into the cocoon." Kerrigan elatedly replied, "Good, very good…" She heard Izsha psionically state, "My queen, we are being hailed by the Terran vessel James Raynor once commanded." "Put them through, Izsha." Kerrigan turned to see the furious face of Matthew Horner staring right at her. "Kerrigan! Where the hell is Jim!? If you've done something to him, I swear by the almighty I will bring Armageddon in the form of lasers on your FACE!" Kerrigan replied in a very snarky tone, "Calm down, my dear Matt. I'll show you him now." With a single psionic command, four drones carrying a cocoon entered the room. Matt, his eyes wide in horror as he pieced together what was going on, suddenly became very quiet. "J… Jim? Are you… okay?" A booming voice was heard around the leviathan. "Matthew, I am more than alright. I am powerful! Nothing can stop me now!" Matt started to freak. "Jim! Get a hold of yourself! You're a ZERG! Kerrigan tricked you!" The booming voice was heard again. "Quite the contrary! I chose to be infested, there was no other will then mine!" Kerrigan smirked, and then said one last thing. "Bye bye Matty boy!" Matt yelled "Kerrigan! You do NOT cut this transmission or I swe…" TRANSMISSION TERMINATED. "Now that that is sorted out, Abathur!" Abathur replied, "Yes, my queen?" Kerrigan said, "Is Jim's chrysalis close to hatching?" Abathur replied earnestly, "Yes, my queen. Approximately 5 minutes until the chrysalis hatches. And a discovery. Your DNA that was woven into his infestation seems to have wakened up psionic abilities he never had." Kerrigan was getting all good news. "This is a very good development." Suddenly, the leviathan shook violently. "Izsha! What just happened?!" "It seems that a Yamato class cannon has hit our Leviathan, my queen." Kerrigan realized what was going on. "Matthew Horner! Quick, Izsha, set a course for Char!" "Of course, my queen." As she said this, Jim's cocoon broke, and a newly infested Jim Raynor came out, in every way Kerrigan's equal. His eyes glowed purple, and had more armory plates then Kerrigan, but was less mobile and focused on brute strength. (A brief and small assessment of his abilities.) "Making the jump now, my queen." "Good. The entire Koprulu sector will pay for trying to harm my Jim."

A dramatic ending, but I had to get a premise for my future fan fictions on this topic. This will be my main focus. The next chapter will focus on Jim growing accustomed to Zerg life and will most likely not be having too much blood and gore. Signing off!
Much hope,
