The Last Torment of Chaos

I don't own Xena or tuna!

AN: This is Chaos at his most brutal. A scene or two might be a bit rough for some people.

Chaos was sitting on a heavy brass purple thrown as he stared at the four warriors with contempt as he stated with a cold passion, "Do you like my home? Course, there will be some changes, since it has betrayed me. Too bad, I always liked the ole girl"

Xena stood out in front of the others as she said fingering her hand of the chakram, "We have come to end this."

Chaos let out a few laughs as he shot a shock wave that slammed into Xena sending her against the wall. Callisto charged with the thundersword screaming madly as she targeted the God of Chaos. Chaos however with the twitch of a finger just her back against the wall landing beside Xena.

Chaos stood up laughing as he said tauntingly, "How can you kill what you can't even touch?"

Xena got back to her feet dusting herself off as she said, ever focused on the mad god with her steely gaze, "I'll find away, it's what I do."

Chaos gestured towards Callisto as he said, "You don't mean using her do ya?" He aimed at the body of Callisto with his arm as she floated in the air. She tried to struggle to free herself from the invisible force that had grabbed her. Xena, Borias and Gabrielle charged in an attempt to free her from Chaos' grip. With Chaos' other hand, he sent a blast wave that threw them back several feet.

Then the body of Callisto floated upside down as she was now suspended directly in front of Chaos' cold purple eyes. Chaos grabbed her nose with his fingers wiggling it back and forth as he said, "Stupid little girl." He then slapped her hard across the face. A second slap on Callisto's other check as Chaos added, "Thinking you can challenge me."

Callisto while hanging upside down spat in his face. Chaos in a rage tossed Callisto away from him. Xena managed to get in front of Callisto's body as the blonde impacted Xena in the chest sending her hard into the blue stone floor with Callisto lying on top of her.

Xena roughly pushed Callisto off of her as she struggled back to her feet, observing Chaos wiping the spit of his face. A second shot from his hand sent both Xena and Callisto hard against the blue wall.

Gabrielle shouted emotionally, "Stop this! Just let us go!" Chaos turned around and transformed himself into Perdicas.

Chaos said with Perdicas' voice, "Stop what honey?"

Gabrielle replied in anger, "I know it's you Chaos?"

Chaos maintained the voice of Perdicas as he approached Gabrielle saying, "What honey, I've come back for you." Gabrielle stepped away as he approached her. With Xena and Callisto still down, Borias attempted a charge with his sword drawn as a single bolt of purple energy sent him flying back ten feet, hitting the floor head first, knocking him out.

Gabrielle continued to back away as the body of Perdicas followed her. Chaos froze her muscles in place as he reached and touched Gabrielle's face. Gabrielle knew it wasn't Perdicas but she couldn't help thinking it might be him as his flesh on her cheek felt so real.

Chaos said warmly, "I'd love to be with you Gabrielle, but you disgust me!" He shoved her away from him as Chaos continued, "Why didn't you avenge me! Your husband! I would have done it for you!"

Gabrielle broke down in tears as she cried out, "I...I... Wanted to…"

Xena struggled to her feet as she said, "Leave her alone!" Chaos then changed his form to that of Solan.

Xena gritted her teeth as she pulled out her sword saying, "I know that's you in there Chaos, you can't fool me."

Chaos replied in the voice of Solan, "Mother?" Xena held up her finger saying, "Shut up Chaos." Xena circled the body of Solan with her sword drawn aimed at him.

Chaos said, "Why didn't you want me mother?"

Xena replied severely irritated, "Shut up Chaos! You are not Solan!"

Chaos started allowing clear tears to form under his eyes, "Why don't you want me mother?" Xena knew it wasn't Solan but the image of Solan crying affected her, still she fought it.

Chaos, still in the form of Solan ran at Xena with his hands out as Xena stepped out of the way avoiding the him as best she could. Then Chaos spoke in his own voice while still in the body of Solan, "You never loved him did you? Not one bit. Too busy killing to raise your own son!"

Xena charged angrily swinging with her sword. The hand of Solan caught the sword as the laugh of Chaos emanated from the body of Solan. Then he changed himself back into his own from as with a free hand he held Xena in the air by the throat saying, "You cold bitch."

Chaos threw Xena against the wall as Chaos turned around to meet Callisto who was running with the Thundersword in hand. With a blink of Chaos' eyes, Callisto stopped in place, taking a standing position. Chaos then said, "I know the thing that disgusts you the most. Why you feign away from all human contact. The real source of your darkness. Remember these!"

Callisto saw the hands of the man who had raped her. The hands she could never forget. Chaos unlocked her muscles enough to allow her to squirm but not enough to get away. Callisto fought a whimper as she could feel her stomach lurch as the hand touched her face. Then Chaos spoke in the voice of Tillian, the man who had raped Callisto when she was still a child, "Don't you miss our intimate evenings my little one?"

He lowered his hand down onto her stomach as Callisto tried to get away. She was trembling at his touch but she could not get free. His hand slipped down to her inner thigh as Callisto begun to whimper at the touch. Tears forming in her eyes. Then with both hands he reached up and cupped her ass cheeks as Callisto was closing her eyes trying to pretend this wasn't happening.

Then Chaos said, still with the voice of Tillain, "There is one thing I've missed more than any other. That luscious young pussy."

Callisto said in a meek scared voice, "Not that! Please!" The hands moved from her ass and began to creep up her skirt when, a shout followed by flying kick nailed Chaos in the head causing him to release his grip on Callisto and fall to the ground crying. Xena said, "Didn't your mother teach you to keep your hands to yourself!"

Gabrielle got up and ran to the crying Callisto to comfort her as Callisto for a moment was overcome with emotion, as the power of her rape had just been burned anew in her mind.

Chaos then said laughing as he got to his feet in his full normal form, "It's all so easy with you mortals. Your minds are so weak, all it takes is the slightest touch to drive you all insane. But that isn't the only thing." Chaos flew back to the wall laughing. Then he came forward pushing a very familiar body in front of him.

Xena saw Ephiny and instantly said, "Let her go."

Chaos replied laughing, "No! Why do you heroes asked that all time? Does anyone ever actually let them go?" Callisto got back to her feet having calmed down some from the trauma that Chaos had inflicted on her, her Thundersword out standing beside Xena defiantly staring in Chaos' direction. Gabrielle followed her and positioned herself to the other side of Xena with her trusty staff in hand. Borias walked up and stood beside Callisto.

Chaos shouted mockingly, "The four warriors stand together!" He threw Ephiny against the wall as he changed himself into a large four armed beast. Chaos shouted, "Try me!"

The four warriors charged as Chaos stood at the ready. Xena lead the way as she received a fist to the face that sent her flying backwards. Gabrielle swung her staff at him, but he caught it with his lower left hand, then kicking her in the stomach, knocking her to the ground.

He then shoved Callisto backwards as Borias shouted loudly while he charged Chaos. A pair of head shots from Chaos and Borias was down on the ground unconscious again. Chaos grew larger as he turned his head to see Callisto who was struggling to her feet. He put his foot on the back of Gabrielle as he said, "I could kill her you know."

Callisto replied, "As Xena said, You don't kill."

Chaos sneered, "There are worse things than death." As soon as he said that, a purple energy radiated through his body as Gabrielle shouted in pain.

Chaos then said smiling at Callisto, "You like this, don't you?"

Callisto demanded, "Let her go!"

Chaos shook his head, "There's that dumb request again." Another energy surge went from his body and into Gabrielle's, as she screamed even louder than before from the pain.

Chaos said alluringly, "I know you love seeing this pain. You miss causing it."

Callisto shouted, "That's not me anymore!" Callisto heard Xena's war cry as she was running at Chaos. Chaos turned his head and shot her with a purple beam from his eyes sending her back into the blue wall.

Chaos then said, "If your so good and noble how about you end her suffering?" Gabrielle begin to shout again as her body shook in pain. Chaos said, "I can keep her little heart a beating while giving her the worst pain imaginable and I can do it forever! Kill her and save her from her pain!"

Callisto shouted, "I won't do it!" Gabrielle continued to shout as her whole body ached. The pain got worse as Callisto began to breath in heavily.

Chaos shouted in joy, "More! More!" Gabrielle shouted louder as her eyes were red with pain.

Callisto in a whimper said, "Please stop…"

Chaos shouted, "Or what!"

Callisto threw down the Thundersword as she said, "Take me. I am the only one who can kill you. None of the others can harm you. Just let them go. I surrender." Chaos took his foot off of Gabrielle as she went to a fetal position crying from the pain that had just been inflicted on her.

Chaos Approached Callisto and grabbed her by the arm. Chaos said, "You think you can destroy me!" Chaos punched her in the face. Then again in the gut. He punched her again in the side of the head as she was brought down to her knees. He kicked her hard in the shoulder, sending her down to the stone floor.

He kicked her twice in the ribs as Callisto did not exclaim in pain despite it's overwhelming sensation in her body. The a voice said, "Hey Chaos!"

Chaos turned around to see Xena as he said, "Well."

Xena said, "How about we end this?"

Chaos mused as he returned to his normal form, "Maybe. But you've got to prove to me that you're willing to play."

Xena smiled darkly, "What do you have in mind."

Chaos said with a smile, "Perhaps I chose someone that is a bit too hard for you to kill. Maybe I need to choose someone else. I tell you what. Kill Ephiny, and then you and Gabrielle will be freed from my world."

Ephiny hearing this tried to get to her feet but Xena was already on top of her with her sword in hand. Ephiny demanded, "What are you doing?"

Xena answered, "Getting Gabrielle out of here."

Xena was about to cut Ephiny's throat when Xena stopped. Chaos demanded, "What are you doing? Kill her!"

Xena asked, "What about Borias? Will he be freed too?"

Chaos answered, "Yes Xena, I will free Borias."

Xena then asked, "Callisto?"

Chaos bowed his head as he said, "Yes, her too." Xena turned head back towards Ephiny as she recoiled from seeing the warrior princess' cold stare. Then she turned her head back towards Chaos and asked, "You have Hercules in Tartarus. What about him?"

Chaos groaned as he said, "I will release him as well, now hurry up and kill her!"

Xena was again positioning herself to kill Ephiny but stopped and looked at Chaos who replied, "What is it now, your horse?"

Xena saw that Callisto was coming to as Xena said, "I don't trust you. Let me come up to you and look in your eyes to see if your telling the truth."

Chaos relented, "Fine, come up to me and look in my eyes and I'll show you I'm not lying."

Xena slowly stepped towards Chaos even as she saw Callisto edging her hand towards the Thundersword. Xena was now in arms reach of Chaos as she got even closer. She looked into Chaos' deep purple eyes as he said, "I will release….aargghh." Xena saw the sword emerge though the chest of Chaos.

Chaos punched Xena from him away shouting "You bitch!" He stumbled around. He said "Wow, god damn writer. I know you wrote this in. you bastard, you could have at least wrote a face to face kill instead of in the back!"

Chaos fell to his knees as the Ares, Athena, and Hades appeared. Then Hera appeared from out of Chaos' body.

Chaos said "I have enough power left for one last torment. Each of you three women have lost loved ones. Since everything will soon return to the world it is only fitting I do this one last thing. Gabrielle above all others deserves her family back. However she didn't get any of them back when all the others did. The murdering bitch however does not deserve to ever see her family again. So I give Callisto her family back and the" His voice took a mocking tone, "Good kind hearted Gabrielle gets nothing. Her family will remain dead."

He used his power to bring Callisto's sister and mother from the grave. Gabrielle was in tears at this last torment as she thought of her parents, then Lila and Perdicas. Chaos said "At least I get to see Hera one last time before I die. If you had asked it, I would have stopped my games. You never needed to betray me. I would have changed for you. I….love….you…" Hera did not react to his statement as Chaos stared into her eyes. He then laughed as his body faded from existence.

The world began to change. Then suddenly they were back in the real world again, it had been a month or more, yet they were exactly as they had left the real world, falling off the chariot and finding themselves in the quicksand pit. Xena discovered she had her chakram again as her body was pulled farther down in the quicksand. She pulled it up, noticing that it was the Yin Yang Chakram. She threw it into a piece of wood. She used her whip to snag it. Callisto said "Xena, you are so good."

Xena pulled herself out of the pit. Once there she looked at Callisto. Callisto said with an almost begging tone, "Xena please. Xena save me. I don't wanna die." Xena thought about letting her go. Then she remembered everything from the world of chaos. She shot her whip at Callisto.

Xena said, "Callisto grab on and pull yourself." Callisto grabbed a hold and pulled herself out as Xena pulled the whip. Xena helped the blonde warrior to her feet. Callisto asked, "If it was your old chakram instead of your new, would you have let me die."

Xena answered with a smile, "Maybe." The walked up the hill to greet their own world once again.
