(Introless besides a new OC that Hardforfanfic666 is getting introduced and its the final of the trio, we have permission to use in other stories and stuff.)
?/?/?
The scene went to some time after Demonga's fight with the Vampire man he fought, currently the scene went to a wide field that seemed like Death and Decay ruled these lands… this was the Land of the Dead or at least the part where souls were sorted for the Dead worlds… currently a couple people killed by Vampires recently showed up and sigh as they approach the gate keeper.
"Man… can't believe we're dead."
"Yeah… still can't believe it was Vampire's of all things… thought they were gone besides Finn and Marceline and the three who attacked the Candy Kingdom… I mean one of them looked like a ghoul." The second ghost said while the first look surprised.
"Ghoul… the one who offed me looked like a freaking mermaid believe it or not… read it in a book once, have humanoid woman, half fish." The other ghost said as the first shrugged.
"Guess they are coming back and infecting others on Ooo?" The first ghost said as they got in front of the gate keeper who stopped them.
"Hault… What business do you have here?" Said the Gate keeper.
"Uhhh… we got killed by Vampires and wound up here?" One of the ghosts said when they wondered what the Gate Guardian meant… this seemed like this guy was either a different one or new and well… the massive skeletal being heard a throat clearing nearby and looked down to see a robed figure whose features were hidden as a female voice was heard.
"Hey Gate Keeper, I know you're training to be a replacement for the old gate keeper but remember your job isn't to keep people out, its to let dead souls in and last I checked, I have perfect vision with two eyes and can see these two are dead souls." The fememine figure with the cloak said while she crossed her arms, she had black bones for hands and stuff and didn't sound pleased with the Gate keeper. (Final OC of Hardforfanfic666, will be introduced fully in a bit.)
The gate keeper was a bit surprised to hear that.
"Oh right… still new to this. You may enter." He said before letting the duo go in.
"Sorry about that you two, newbie gate guardian hired to help the old one before he retires in a few thousand years… before you ask time works a bit different for us natives of the Dead worlds… to beings like us, 1000 or so years is like a bink of an eye… anyway follow me, I need to ask a couple questions since I heard you mention Vampires… this is the 20th death already if you two are counted." The Figure said while she gestured for the two ghosts to follow her.
The two ghost figures looked to one another before they followed the mystery figure.
When they did, the trio left but not before the figure poked her cloak covered head back by the massive gate leading to the Dead world and looks at the Gate guardian.
"Oh and better remember to NOT try and turn the dead away, otherwise I'll let Death know about this since I work for him directly, he was annoyed about the last 2 times you nearly turned some ghosts away, he can replace you if it wasn't for me… remember that." The figure said before she went after he two ghosts which left the shuddering fear filled Gate guardian alone with some ghosts and skeletons who look at one another and kept quiet to not piss the guardian off.
The new gate guardian shudders with fear as he tries to do his job correctly.
Meanwhile… with the two ghosts and the figure…
"So you're sure the killers of you two were Vampires?... just saying since the last few ghosts were actually mauled by monsters and thought otherwise." The figure said as the two ghosts mutter to one another and look at the figure.
"Oh yeah, talking with this guy here clenches it, he got bit by some kind of ghoul and I got bit by some kind of Mermaid, both had sharp teeth and glowing red eyes… I was uh… skinny dipping under the moonlight when I wanted some privacy and he was well… funnily enough a Grave keeper." The Ghost bitten by the mermaid said as the cloaked figure chuckles and the ghost who got bitten by a ghoul got a tick mark on his head,
"Oh laugh it up, a grave keeper killed by undead, not like it hasn't happened before with other gravekeeprs on the job." The ghost bitten by a ghoul said as the figure tried to control her laughter.
"S-Sorry… but that is surprisingly rare among causes of deaths, most undead are grateful to Gravekeepers who keep their homes on Ooo intact more or less… so a grave keeper killed in a grave is a bit ironic." The figure said as the ghost bitten by a ghoul sweatdrops.
"You got a twisted sense of humor you know that?" The ghost bitten by the ghoul said as the figure calmed herself.
"Hehe, yeah but when in the dead world you need to find ways to amuse yourself or you pretty much go mad… come on, we're nearing where Death is." The figure said as she led the two ghosts who shrug at one another to a large garden like area and many ghosts were seen around a tall skeletal figure who was taking notes on a large piece of paper with a comically oversized quill.
"Who's that guy?" The first ghost said.
"That guy is lord Death… ruler of the Dead worlds and pretty much the guy you normally meet when you die and may as well be my father of sorts and boss as well thanks to me being apart of his… hmmm… if were using Royal terms thanks to Ooo being a thing, a Royal guard so a powerful fighter here." The figure said when she and the the shocked ghosts approach Death and he noticed them.
"Ah Mikoi, two new souls?... let me guess death by Vampire if brought here?" Death said when he looks at the two nervous ghosts.
"Well yeah. One died in the graveyard while the other died by mermaid." The figure, now revealed as Mikoi, said.
"I see… this is getting ridiculous, Mikoi, after I log these two away in the possible revival list/reincarnation list depending on how long it takes for these Vampire's to be dealt with, follow me, we need to speak with Life about a way to help get Finn and the other's collective asses in gear, training is fine and all but these attacks are slowly speeding up, if nothing is done soon, Vampire's will spread all over Ooo and no offence to Marceline and Finn since they have ways of circumventing their blood cravings with red and occasional donations, but the rest on Ooo are a menace that need to be taken care of at the source." Death said when he frowns as he logged the two new ghosts away while they look surprised by the possible revival or reincarnation… whatever that meant with the last part.
"Very well. I'll start preparing things when we head to Ooo." Mikoi said.
"More like you Mikoi, Globs have certain rules that we can't appear on the mortal plane unless specific circumstances allow it like me reaping souls or getting a portal opened on the other side by a mortal… no the plan is to give you a Body that is both immortal and mortal so that you can come and go from the Dead worlds at will, anyway I'll have an assistant take care of these ghosts so lets get going." Death said as he snapped his fingers and a skeletal figure appeared next to Mikoi.
"You summoned me Milord?" An aged Skeletal figure said as they bowed to Death.
"Yes. Mikoi and I are going to speak with Life about certain incidents in Ooo and I need you to take care of these ghosts until I return." Death said.
"Very well… do I reap their souls and send them off to the next life or…" The Skeletal figure said as they point a thumb down making the Ghosts gulp as Death rolls his eyes or whatever he head for eyes.
"No, just make sure that these guys don't get into the water or get kidnapped by insane skeletons and stuff, they may get reincarnated or brought back to life thanks to how they were not supposed to die yet… well… for most… these three got killed because of them running from a Vampire and getting caught in a rockslide but given how a Vampire started it… eh may as well be nice and stuff for today… back to normal next time though." Death said as he shrugged his shoulders as he and Mikoi leave while the skeletal figure bowed to the duo.
The skeletal figure smirks as she looks at the ghosts.
"Until Lord Death returns… you're all my bitches."
The Ghosts pale a bit when they didn't expect the skeletal being to be female and as they scream, the scene went to Death and Mikoi as they got in Life's domain.
"Hey Death… just a thought but you did make sure to summon the butler and not the maid right?... they are hard to tell apart unless they change their voices at will… heard the maid can be a bit… sadistic to visitors." Mikoi said making Death blink a bit when heard that but shrugged.
"Eh, even if I did, not like much will happen since I won't be that long, maybe an hour or two… come on we should speak with Life." Death said as he and Mikoi went along a rather ocean like area… thanks to the water like properties of the place, Mikoi who still had her cloak on which obscured most of her body and Death moon bounced along the land until they got to where Life was as she was busy sitting at a pottery mold while making new bodies for souls coming her way while she hums a bit before noticing the duo.
"Oh, hello Mikoi and Deathy. Something you two need?" Life said.
"Hey Life… first off…" Death said as he moved to kiss each of Life's lips and stepped back with a smile.
"Ah, perfect for brightening up my day." Death said as Mikoi looks amused at how content Death looked.
Life giggles.
"So what can I do for you both?"
"Need a body made for Mikoi here… need to send her to get Finn and the others pointed in the right direction since most of what they were doing is just either training or sitting around… Phoebe and Bubblegum I get since they can't do much and heard from a scout that Bubblegum found a way to make herself fireproof when not near the Queen of flames, but nothing else is going on right now aside these Vampire attacks mounting, 20 souls in the last few days that need reincarnations or revivals… more work for the two of us and will keep piling if we don't do something and since we can't go to Ooo normally… may as well send a REAPresentative here who can when she gets the right body." Death said as he chuckles at his pun and Mikoi groans like that actually hurt her.
Life sweatdrops at the joke.
"Well I'll see what I can do, give me say… 30 minutes to work a body up?... even if I want to, can't give her a full human like body since her undead nature would conflict too much with it and cause issues… need to fine tune things but I worked with worse… trust me on that… this won't be a problem… and since Mikoi likes both genders, may as well give her a body that can grow a penis with a female form… what do you think?" Life said when she looks at Mikoi with a smile as Mikoi smirks as she looks at Death.
"Oh that will work… though may need to break that body in a bit so… hey boss mind if I head to Flaria and work some things out?... not just fun wise… need to see if I can use my powers fully with that new body or not." Mikoi said which showed it wasn't fully full of pervy intentions.
"Hmmmm… alright… as long as it's not perverted like you did last time." Death said.
"Hey to be fair hard to hold back when a shapely ghost is flirting with you and we skeletal beings can form a spectral cock and stuff… can't blame me for that one, she got sent to a lustful Dead world thanks to her actions in life… think she was a Succubus and stuff killed by a Vampire recently… anyway I'll see you in 30 minutes Life, may as well enjoy the water here." Mikoi said as she hopped around with a grin on her body face while Death shakes his head.
"Ugh, just because I made her different than most 23 years ago doesn't mean she has to be a headache sometimes." Death said as Life giggles.
"Well considering you animated her soul stone and bones and stuff, that makes you a father of hers somewhat, anyway Death, I'll be done in 30 minutes so I'll see you later… give me an extra 20 on that and I'll keep an eye on Mikoi for you, want to talk with her anyways before she leaves." Life said when she smiles at Death.
Death chuckles as he kissed Life again before heading back leaving said Globbess and Mikoi alone.
Once this happened, Life called to Mikoi.
"Mikoi, could you come here sweetie?" Life asked to get Mikoi's attention.
Mikoi blinks a bit before she approaches Life to see what she needed.
When she got close, Life smiles when Mikoi got close.
"OK Mikoi, I'll ask a few questions so why not tell me what kind of body you want, may as well make you my daughter of sorts since Death made your bones and soul core and I'm making a body, hehe, always wanted a daughter… hopefully naturally birthed in the future with a baby boy or girl but this is the next best thing until then… oh and I need to give an important warning since this deals with your soul core." Life said when she points at Mikoi's midsection where this supposed core was.
Mikoi blinks at the warning.
"W-What kind of warning?"
"Simple, this new body more or less has a couple issues no matter how much I work with it thanks to the unique way you're being reborn so to speak… first off your core will be exposed no matter what I do since the body won't be able to hold it because of how pure it is, in a nutshell you'll be missing part of your spine and stuff but it will give you new mobility options later, and second you're powers will be crippled until you get used to your body, think of it like reincarnation but not as severe, we have to work within some rules so you don't break reality and what not, if you're fine with them we can start on the body once you consider the pros and cons of this." Life said when she looks at the young skeletal being… well young when a person of 23 is standing over a virtually ageless immortal deity and stuff but still…
Mikoi was a bit surprised by this info before being thoughtful for a bit.
But she remembers that Death is sending her on a mission.
"I'll risk it."
Life nods her head.
"Very well… I'll have the body done in 5 minutes… you can have the other 45 to have fun with Flaria and stuff… she is in the 20th dead world making sure no roudy ghosts are there to cause trouble for the peace loving souls." Life said with an amused smirk on her face.
Mikoi smirks at Life.
"Works for me. Catch later Life… or maybe I should say… mom."
Life giggles at this as she went to work while Mikoi hopped around the area… once 5 minutes, pass, Life called Mikoi to come look at her new body.
Took a bit before Mikoi answered.
"Hey Life. Everything alright?"
"Yeah, take a look at the body of the soon to be new you, mixed in some succubus DNA into the body so you can reform it somewhat oh and I gave it both genders naturally so you won't have to waste energy forming a cock, can dismiss it but will need to summon it later… late a look." Life said as Mikoi looks at the body and she blushed big at what she saw.
She was two halves of a body, the torso more or less had her head, breasts, D to E by the way, powerful arms, and nothing below.
For the legs, she had long powerful legs leading to a nice looking ass and part of a waist on her hips which housed a tight looking pussy and womb while the area where here stomach would be was gone so that Mikoi's core could be placed there and connect the two halves together while a massive 12 inch cock and it was 2 in width hung from her pelvic area, she had ebony skin, long silver hair with purple streaks in the locks and she had nice lips that looked puffy but not so much to look unnatural, the eyes which were vacant were a nice silver in one eye and a deep beautiful violet in the other giving her a hetechromic look.
"So… what do you think?... had to make room for your core and since it was already resting in your stomach, moved it a bit up so if you want to have fun with a mortal and have a kid, you'll be able to in the future… also gave you some pretty virile balls that you can summon if you want to impregnate a female… give it one hell of a boost so don't be surprised if your body summons them automatically… think of that as training wheels so you can dismiss them and summon them if you want to knock a mortal or other female being up hehe." Life said when she smirks at her now adopted daughter of sorts.
Mikoi was surprised when she saw the body for a moment before she practically hugs Life.
"I love it!" She said.
"Well thank you, I did my best… however there is one final catch though you may enjoy it, you see you need to reap souls and you can use them to power your abilities up to another level, before you get worried, no, it doesn't eat the souls… thats Hunson's thing… ugh still don't like that guy eating my precious bits of life… anyway the soul's taint and experience in life get turn into experience for you and you can use it to power up your abilities more or less, think of it as them getting a cleansing from you before you send them here, the stronger the soul you reap, the larger the gain… can even have fun with souls on earth first if some are virgins on death as well." Life said when she pets Mikoi's black skeletal head after she pulled the hood back to reveal a black human shaped skull that Mikoi had.
"Really?... sounds interesting… anything else?" Mikoi asked while she enjoys the petting.
"Actually yes, thanks to the DNA you got, your form can take on a more lustful state, pretty much giving you the ability to suit your lovers tastes automatically so say if you go for Flaria… a sexy Flame person… for a Flame wolf, a werewolf woman, a human… well you look human already but your form will change to suit their tastes… so on and so fourth… and there is a battle form you can take, while its true you can't use your original form normally… you can access it once I take your core and put it in this body… in a nutshell you'll be able to use your full power for a limited time if you truely need it… no need to worry about real tutorials and stuff, once you get in your body, it will do the rest for you, once you get the hang of things you'll be able to transform and stuff at will by feeling alone… training wheels so to speak… so ready to get in your new body and take it for a spin?" Life asked as she grins at Mikoi.
Mikoi feels excited.
"Oh, I'm more than ready."
"Good… now remove the robe and I can remove your core safely." Life said and Mikoi nods as she removed her robe and she had a pitch black skeletal figure but the eye catcher was a crystal core with a glowing center, it looked like a flawless gem and the glow had a pure white light but was dim enough to not burn someones eyes from looking directly at it… once Life gently gripped the core, Mikoi's skeletal figure fades into a dark mist and went into the Crystal and covered the light like a shell and Life moved the gem carefully to rest on the underside of Mikoi's new body after Life smiles when she altered the core to give Mikoi a flawless waistline so she wouldn't have issues with her new body though there were two gaps a few centimeters from the upper body and when Life moved the lower body, it had a similar effect, the core almost looked cylinder like now but Life kissed it and it momentarily returned to a pure circular form and back to give the form the change effect in case Mikoi needed it… once it was back to a cylinder like form, the core glows and the black mist covering the core flowed out and into the upper and lower parts of the body, coating the bones already inside of it and a moment later, Mikoi's eyes blinked a few times as Life looked down on her.
"Hey Mikoi… how you feeling?" Life asked as she smiles at Mikoi with her two heads.
Mikoi looks a bit at her body before she tries to walk a bit to test out her new legs.
It took a moment for her to get used to her new legs, she wobbled a bit for a moment and Life had to support her body when she caught Mikoi in her arms.
"Easy there… first time sea legs so to speak… though seems that cock of yours seems to have a mind of its own." Life said when she teased Mikoi when Life felt a massive hardon poke at her legs.
Mikoi blushes a bit before lightly chuckling.
"W-Well at least some parts of my body are working."
"Indeed… hmmm… tell you what… why don't I join you and Flaria in some fun and see if your body is fully working… I can do this after all… two heads maybe better than one but…" Life said when she had her second head leave her body with some lesser snakes making her form match Mikoi in height while Life was a little taller with only one head while a second life formed next to the duo.
"But in my case, one head gives two extra hands so I can stay here and let Deathy know whats going on…. May give him a good time if he wants to have fun with a form he hasn't seen in awhile…" The second life said as the two life's smirk at Mikoi.
Mikoi blinks a bit after hearing that before chuckling.
"Knowing Lord Death… he most certainly would."
"Indeed… should use this ability more often… two Life's are better than one in some cases hehe." The first Life said as she had her double bring Mikoi's cloak over.
"Here, should keep you warm dear, you have skin and stuff after all." the second life said as she helped Mikoi put her cloak on.
Mikoi did shudder before she took the cloak and cover up.
"T-Thanks. Was a bit chilly."
"No problem, let's get going Mikoi." The first Life said when she went to bring Mikoi with her to the 20th Dead world when a portal opened and the second Life hums when she went to sort souls out for a new life or reincarnation.
Mikoi follows the first Life while getting a hand of her new body.
'Wow… still can't believe I have a body… a very sexy body.' She thought.
As Mikoi walked behind Life, Life teased Mikoi a bit when she sways her hips to test out Mikoi's lust as they got to the 20th Dead world it looked like many angelic temples that had a mainly roman theme more or less with many beautiful stars in the sky of this world and Life was equipped with a toga that really showed her shapely ass.
Mikoi blushes a bit as she stares at Life's ass before she was seen wearing a toga.
Though when her outfit changed, it barely covered her body and cock and was partially see through which hid the details of her form, though as the duo continue walking, Life chuckles when she saw a number of souls look her and Mikoi's way.
"Hehe, looks like were pretty popular." Life teased as a few females lick their lips at Mikoi while their eyes went down her body and some males ogle Life though she ignored them for now.
Mikoi blushes at stares as she follows Life while some females looked at her.
In no time, the duo made it to a fancy looking building and as Life and Mikoi walked in, they saw that this place looked grander than the others and Life walked by a few guards with Mikoi in tow, they wore toga's and in the case of elementals like flame people, water nymphs, and wood Nymph's, they wore togas made from the element they represent to give them some tasteful fashion of their own.
After getting some directions, the duo walked to a certain room and when they enter they see Flaria talking with a ghostly version of a Water nymph woman, most likely a strong woman when she had a powerful body, when she saw Life, she instantly turned to bow and Flaria blinks and looks at the duo with surprise, mainly Life, Mikoi right now looks like a stranger right now to her.
"Hello Lady Life. Bit of a surprise to see you. Though who's your friend?" Flaria said.
"Hello Flaria, as surprising as this sounds, this is Mikoi, Death's daughter more or less and I made this body for her, making her a pseudo daughter of mine, she needs some help with testing some things before she leaves for the mortal world and your one of the best people for the job." Life said when she smiles at the surprised look on Flaria's face.
Flaria was surprised to hear that before she looks at Mikoi.
"It's true." Mikoi said.
"I see, well what can I help with?, Mikoi is normally pretty strong and stuff." Flaria said while Life giggles.
"Oh its not quite that… you see I already explained that she needs to break her new body in but in this case… its mainly a tier 15 situation and right now… she is a full virgin at the moment… mind joining me in fixing that?... Mikoi got a good gift from me after all… take a look." Life said when she steps out of the way of Mikoi and Flaria saw Mikoi's body under the partially see through Toga… and Mikoi's cock as well… same with the Water Nymph ghostly woman as well which made her blush.
Flaria blinks in surprise when she saw that before smirking at Life.
"Well if you need my help then who am I to decline."
"Great, lets get going so we can have some fun… oh and your friend will have to wait if she wants to join in, on a time table and we have about 35 or so minutes now… once Mikoi leaves however… I'm planning on heading back to Deathy so if you want, could join me on the way back… until than… goodbye." Life said as she, Mikoi, and Flaria walked from the blushing Water Nymph leaving her alone.
"Aww man… wish they included me in this." The ghostly water nymph said.
Though comically moment later, Billy as a ghost walked by in a toga and he winked at the water Nymph woman in passing making her blink a few times.
This made the water nymph giggles as she took the opportunity to go to Billy.
As this happened, the scene went to Mikoi, Flaria, and Life as they got to a classy room with a fancy water mattress made out of water… thankfully for Flaria, thanks to her ghostly nature, no pain at all as the trio stripped and Life and Flaria laid next to one another in a sexy way with Flaria on Life like they were about to kiss with legs interlocked and they look at Mikoi to see how she was doing.
Mikoi blushes when she saw the display which caused her cock to get a bit hard in her toga.
Life and Flaria lick their lips when they saw that.
"Come on Mikoi…" Flaria said as she and Life spread their legs.
"Undress… plenty of pussy and tail for you to have fun with… just need to undress and…" Life said before the duo said this as one.
"Join us…. Join us…" The duo said in a comical hive mind manner and Life used a come get us gesture to the worked up Mikoi who, for the record, just got a new organic body and stuff… well while she used a spectral cock before… it was her first time with an organic body so… she had comical hypnosis swirls when she was mesmerized by the sexy bodies laying before her.
"S-Sure." Mikoi said before she strips her toga away before she shows off her nude body to the duo.
Flaria and Life licked their lips before they moan when they laid next to one another as Mikoi ate out Flaria's pussy while she fingers Life's folds.
Both ladies moan before Life and Flaria starts making out in front of Mikoi while enjoying having their holes teased.
This egged Mikoi on as she moved to eat Life out while she fingers Flaria deeply, in no time their pussies were getting soaked thanks to her actions.
Both Flaria and Life were now moaning more as their holes got more wet.
After a bit, Mikoi slipped her tongue in Life's pussy and she fingered Flaria deeper, she keeps her actions up and pleased the two more and more until…
Flaria and Life moan in unison before they climaxed on Mikoi's tongue and fingers.
Mikoi keeps her actions up while she enjoyed Life's juices and she waits for the duo to ride out their orgasms while she fingers Flaria roughly.
Life and Flaria's orgasms got stronger thanks to that before the duo finally taps off.
Once this happened, Life and Flaria kiss one another and smirk when they pulled away and well… Life did a surprising move when she had Mikoi lay on the bed… the catch was thanks to how her body was, her upper body was resting on the bed without her core while some kind of mist kept the core linked with her body and her lower body and core stood at the edge of the bed as Life smirks.
"One lesson about this body… you can learn how to control your parts separated from your Core… and you can feel things as well like this." Life said as she went to lick Mikoi's cock and though Mikoi's upper body was at the headboard with her head on a pillow, she could feel her cock being licked while Flaria moved to bring Mikoi's lower body and core on the bed and she spreads Mikoi's legs while they were facing Mikoi and well… she got a perfect view of her own pussy and cock getting eaten out and sucked and what not when Life deepthroats her cock eagerly.
"W-Whoa!" Mikoi groans after getting over her surprise look when she felt her new cock in Life's mouth.
Life eyesmiles as she used a hand to stroke what she didn't take every now and then and Flaria moved to finger Mikoi's asshole after lubing it up with Mikoi's juices for her first ever fingering.
Mikoi shudders from these actions before groaning more before she slowly starts to feel good.
The two more experienced women look at one another and had lustful looks in their eyes and moved to eat, finger, and deepthroat Mikoi's cock, pussy, and ass while Mikoi's upper body gripped the bed sheets as she watched her own toes curl in reflex from the building pleasure as her orgasm was getting close.
"Oh fuck!" Mikoi groans as she pleasure she was feeling was different when she was a skeletal being… spectral cock and other parts felt different from this.
In no time, Mikoi's cock was throbbing hard after some time while Life was amused by the stamina Mikoi had… she made the body but didn't expect Mikoi to fight this long to hold her orgasm back but it was pointless when Flaria and Life pleased Mikoi's pussy, ass, and cock more with life sucking her cock vigorously until…
Mikoi grinds her teeth and she gives a strained groan through clenched teeth before she felt her cock fire her load in Life's mouth while Mikoi felt her pussy spray her juices on Flaria.
Life hums as she worked to drink her adopted daughter's load while Flaria closed her eyes and lapped up the juices, again thanks to Flaria being a ghost, no pain from the juices hitting her directly in the face.
After 15-20 seconds pass before Mikoi finally taps off and is lightly panting for breath as Flaria was amused.
"Hehe, looks like she enjoy that… so… want to let the adopted mother get her virginity or let me do the honors?... can form a cock so we can get a cock sucked so the person who doesn't get the honor can have Mikoi suck one of us off." Flaria said when she grins at Life while Life pulled her head off Mikoi's cock after licking it clean.
"Hehe, as much as I want to… I'll let you take first dibs." Life said while smirking.
"Great… if you made a hymen for her, I'll let you take her pussy V-Card, fair right… or want to tag team with me taking her cock and you getting her pussy?" Flaria said since Mikoi's cock was iron hard but her pussy was soaking wet now.
Life grins.
"Well… we do have a time limit so… Let's tag team."
Flaria smirks and well… Mikoi when she recovered saw that Life formed a massive cock the same size as Mikoi's while Flaria moved to get over Mikoi's cock.
"Welcome to full womanhood." Flaria teased before she dropped down and groans when she had Mikoi's cock penetrate her pussy.
Mikoi groans as she feels her new cock entering Flaria's pussy before groaning again from how tight Flaria was.
As this happened, Life chuckles as she moved to sit before Flaria and Mikoi's lower half and she moved to grip Flaria and Mikoi's asses and pulled them in so that the duo or Flaria and Mikoi's lower half sat on Life's waist while her cock was pressed up against her body and Mikoi could feel the scaly cock against her folds while she looked on from the side after Life moved to give Mikoi a perfect view of what would happen as she smirks at the Royal guard Reaper.
Mikoi blinks in surprise when she saw Life and before anything, Flaria was already riding Mikoi's cock.
This made Mikoi groan and as Flaria moved to hug Life around the neck, Flaria raised her hips when Life raised Mikoi's lower body and aimed her cock at Mikoi's pussy… Life then slipped her cock inside of Mikoi's pussy slowly so she could enjoy this unique feeling as she keeps the kiss up with the former flame Queen.
Mikoi groans a bit loud as she feels Life's scaly cock inside her push as Flaria moans more into the kiss.
When Life stopped lowering Mikoi's lower half, it was because her cock poked at Mikoi's hymen… she glanced at Mikoi to see if she could continue.
Mikoi took a bit to calm down before she slightly nods her head at Life to continue.
Life nods her head lightly and she decided to rip the bandage off and forced the rest of Mikoi's lower body down with Flaria following suit to sit on top with Mikoi's cock nearly sheathed inside of her and Life's cock nearly did the same when it busts Mikoi's virginity away and blood came out of Mikoi's pussy by quite a bit when her virginity was roughly ripped away from her.
Mikoi groans in great discomfort as she grinds her teeth while fighting back the tears that were trying to leak out.
Some did so Flaria and Life tried to help distract Mikoi when they worked as a team… Flaria riding Mikoi's cock while Life used a thumb to rub Mikoi's bud to really help her feel better.
That action worked as Mikoi was groaning a few times while feeling her cock getting ridden.
In no time, Mikoi's pussy relaxed over time and when it was, Life lightly thrusts her hips and moved Mikoi's lower body so her cock was thrusting into Mikoi again and again while Flaria moved her body more to ride Mikoi's cock harder.
Mikoi feels a bit more better as starts groaning and moaning from how intense the duo were.
In no time, Life and Flaria were moaning into one another's mouths while Life and Flaria's orgasms were getting close as time went on.
Mikoi also felt her orgasm approaching as her pussy tightens around Life's cock a few times.
After a minute, Flaria and Life groan loudly in one another's mouths as they climaxed hard with Flaria's pussy gripping Mikoi's cock while Life floods Mikoi's womb with a lot of sperm making her womb bloat for the first time.
Mikoi groans loud as she climaxed on Life's cock while at the same time, floods Flaria's pussy with her cum.
After 30 seconds, the trio tapped off one by one until it was Mikoi finishing climaxing from her pussy and cock and she pants for breath while Life and Flaria did the same though they managed to recover and kiss one another a few times.
Mikoi blushes when she saw that as Flaria and Life kiss more.
When the duo stopped kissing, Life helped Flaria off Mikoi's cock and Life carefully moved to lift Mikoi's lower half off her cock, when that happened, sperm and some blood leaked from Mikoi's pussy.
After that happened, Life had Flaria bring Mikoi's upper half to the duo and her upper body was placed on the top part of the core giving Mikoi full control again of her body as Life smiles at her.
"Sorry for being so rough dear but better a fast penetration than a slow drawn out one." Life said when she smiles at Mikoi.
Mikoi blushes a bit.
"N-No worries. Was an… interesting experience." She said.
"Was… oh sweetie were far from done yet… we helped you get used to some first round fun… time for round two with you fucking a woman and try to make them your bitch… so… who do you want to dominate… or want to really get dominated?... and who does the dom or sub role for you?" Life said when she smirks at Mikoi.
Mikoi blinks a bit before she looks thoughtful as she looks at Life and Flaria.
After thinking things, Mikoi made her choice.
"If Flaria doesn't mind… I would like try… Life."
"Oh I don't mind… but the real question… want to dominate or get dominated by Life?" Flaria said with a teasing grin on her face.
Though Mikoi blushes, she now smirks.
"Oh definitely dominate."
Life chuckles before she moved to get on all fours… she kept her cock which hung to the bed while her pussy was on display with her ass being seen and it was shapely.
"Come on then… come and fuck your mother's pussy." Life teased when she shook her ass at her adopted daughter.
Mikoi grins before she gets behind Life and grabs her hips before Mikoi shoves her cock inside the Globbess's pussy.
Life groans from this as Mikoi's cock went deep enough inside of Life's pussy and bashed into her womb in no time, new feelings with her cock aside, she still knew how to use her cock and was able to fuck Life while looking for her weak points.
"Oh fuck!... thats good!" Life moans out while her pussy tightened on Mikoi's cock while a smirking Flaria looks on and formed a cock while Mikoi was unaware of Flaria behind her.
Mikoi grins as she got rough on Life's pussy before Mikoi starts spanking her ass.
As Life groans from each smack, Flaria moved near Mikoi and winks at her as she moved to get her flaming ghost cock near Life's mouth and aimed it at her mouth and smirks at the Globbess when she didn't have to say what she wanted.
Life did however smirk before she opens her mouth and takes in Flaria's cock.
Flaria moans when Life deepthroats her cock in no time again and again.
"F-Fuck… you really love cocks huh?... bet being a Globbess of Life makes you one slutty Globbess… after all need to have lust to make life after all." Flaria teased when she pets Life's head while Mikoi moved a hand around to stroke Life's cock as she fucked Life's pussy harder.
Life groans from that action before she really deepthroats Flaria's cock while having a lustfilled look on her face.
"Oh… yes!... bet Death loves this side of you when you two have fun… bet he's fucking your other self over a table or something at this moment if he came back early." Flaria said while in the meantime…
At the 20 minute mark so 20 minutes to go…
The Life double was comically just doing the job she had with making new life with her putting souls into life gigging clay and smiling when she made some cute little beings… after putting them in her kiln they magically vanished and she went to work on more… seems Death wouldn't come back until the time was up.
Back with the others…
Still hearing that Life's double could have gotten it on with Death did work up Life more and she sucked Flaria's cock harder while she titened her folds on Mikoi's cock making them groan loudly at the pleasure spike while their cocks throb inside of Life.
Life sucked Flaria's cock faster now as Mikoi was now more rough on her thrusting.
In no time, Life managed to let Mikoi fuck her and she sucked Flaria off again and again as the cocks throb inside of her as Mikoi stroked her off until…
Mikoi and Flaria goans loud as Flaria fills Life's mouth with her ghostly cum while Mikoi gives Life's pussy a nice creampie.
Life groans as she worked to drink the sperm as she climaxed hard on Mikoi's cock and from her cock making a mess on the bed while the trio ride out their orgasms.
After about 20-25 seconds, Mikoi and Flaria tapped off.
Life tapped off a moment later and pulled her mouth off Flaria's cock after licking it clean.
"Wow… you two came a lot… I know I'm good but wow." Life teased before she licked some leftover sperm on the tip of Flaria's cock off while she waits for Mikoi to pull her cock out of Life's pussy
Mikoi pants a bit before she was able enough to pull her cock out and was surprised when she saw how much sperm leaked out.
"W-Wow… didn't realize I came that much."
"Hehe, well either you are more virile than you may realize or you're trying to knock me up… guess you have a thing with stepmothers or something?" Life teased when she leaned back as more sperm leaked from her pussy and onto the bed while she had her cock vanish for now.
Mikoi blushes brightly from the tease as Flaria chuckles.
"Bet Death will feel very jealous if that happened."
Life chuckles as Mikoi pales a little.
"Oh I wouldn't worry, lets just say that sometimes he has a thing where a mother/daughter combo teams up against him sometimes, so if something does happen, just need to wait 18 years and she and I can tag team Death and stuff hehe… anyway since you had your turn to dominate…" Life teased when she moved to push Mikoi on her back and moved to straddle Mikoi while she faced her.
"Lets see how well you do with back to back shots while Flaria fucks my ass." Life teased when she moved to aim Mikoi's cock at her folds and dropped down to fully take Mikoi's cock and Life groans when she felt that… after she leaned forward, she used her hands to spread her ass cheeks for Flaria so she could see her asshole.
Flaria grins excitedly before she gets behind Life and instantly jams her cock inside.
Life really groans from this and more with Flaria fucking her ass in no time as she smacked Life's ass tightening her pussy and ass on the cocks inside of her.
This made Life groan while being rough with Mikoi as Life was making her step daughter of sorts her bitch.
As this happened, time went to 20 minutes later to show Death returning to The other half of Life and was surprised to see her in her half sized single head state.
"Life?... let me guess, you split yourself so you could have fun with Mikoi or something with Flaria?" Death asked while he watched Life finish her work with a soul that would get reincarnated as a cat.
"Yes indeed Deathy. It's to help Mikoi get used to her new body." The other have said.
"I see, though that does mean that since she isn't here for an important mission… may have to give her a slight punishment… unless you're willing to make up for what happened hehe." Death teased as he walked near Life when she was finished for now and grins at her while a large bulge was seen in his gardening pants.
The other half of Life did smirk as she playfully rubs Death's bulge.
Death lightly moans at this as he moved to Life's chair, unzips his pants and fished a massive spectral cock out and it flopped to rest before Life and it was massive around 14 or so inches, and given he was twice this Life's size frame wise, or almost, made sense for the massive size.
The other half of Life licks her lips before a moment later, she was seen sucking off her boyfriend… unless husband's cock.
death groans from this when he enjoyed how tight this smaller Life's mouth was while he pets her head, his cock was around the 2 to 3 inch mark in width so not impossible for Life to deepthroat his cock in no time.
The other half of Life eyesmiles at Death as she makes sure to really deepthroat Death's cock while making slurping sounds.
In no time, she felt Death's cock throb hard in her mouth as time went on to show he enjoyed her work greatly as presumably dripped from his cock.
Life felt the throbbing which caused her to bob her head faster and harder.
Death groans a moment later and he floods her mouth with spectral sperm which was a blue in color… she had trouble taking it all thanks to her smaller size as her dress was messed up with sperm in no time.
Life swallows Death's cum as best as she can as she lets him ride out his orgasm.
Once Death rode out his orgasm, he pants for breath and chuckles as he watched Life lick his cock and balls when she pulled them free clean.
"Hehe… cum loving cutie… better undress so I can return the favor and give you a good time after I make you squirm." Death teased as he got undressed before Life.
Life smirks at Death before getting up and takes off her dress which exposes her nude body.
This got Death's cock erect again and he grins as he moved to have Life on a table next to her pottery spinner and he was eating her folds out while his tongue slipped inside of her while he held her smaller ass with one hand while he used a finger to rub her bud.
Life groans for a bit as she was enjoying this action.
"Oh yes Deathy."
Death chuckles when he heard that as he ate Life out more… moved to slip his tongue into her ass while he fingers her tight folds deeply.
Life groans a bit loud as she felt that before she starts to play with her breasts to tease Death.
This caused Death to eat Life out more while he hums at the taste to mess with Life when he made positive noises to show he loved the taste.
This made Life feel turned on while moaning more.
Death removed his tongue from her pussy and moved to slip it in her ass while he made sure to rub a finger on her bud to help her relax on his tongue.
"O-Oh fuck!" Life groans loud as she feels Death's tongue moving around.
Death chuckles a bit from this as he continues to please Life more as his tongue wiggles in her ass more and more as he rubbed her bud and he closed his eyes to focus until…
Life groans loud before she climaxed a bit hard on Death's tongue.
Thanks to Death's eyes being closed, he didn't have to worry about juices getting in his skull as he worked to please Life's bud and ass while he waits for her to ride out her orgasm.
After about 15 seconds, Life finally taps off.
Once she did, Death pulled his glowing tongue from her ass and chuckles when he enjoyed watching Life recover.
Life pants a bit while blushing.
"S-Still great with the… t-tongue, Deathy."
"And you have tasty holes Lifey… I'll give you a moment to recover before I have fun with that tight pussy of yours." Death teased while his cock was rock hard after he stands for a moment.
Life licks her lips.
"No need to wait Deathy. Plunge that great, big cock of yours inside my pussy."
Death looks amused as he had Life get on her back on the table and he aimed his cock at her folds.
"Very well." Death said as he slowly plunged his cock deep inside of Life's tight pussy and again as a reminder… she was half her normal size with one head so his cock was bigger than normal for her.
Life groans as she feels her boyfriend/husband's cock inside her pussy as it stretches to match the shape.
Death gave her a moment or two to adjust after he had his cock touch her cervix and waits for her to give him a signal to start.
After a bit, Life gave Death the signal to start.
Death nods before he slowly pulled his cock free till the head was inside of her and he thrusts his hips again and again while his cock barraged Life's pussy again and again at a decent rate so her cervix was hit again and again.
Life moans and groans a few times before she wrapped her legs around Death's waist.
"O-Oh yes Deathy!"
This made Death chuckle as he fucked Life harder while making sure to use his thumbs on her breasts to help tease and please her more while he made sure to hold his orgasm back as long as he could.
Life groans a bit loud from that action but enjoyed it nonetheless before begging Death to fuck get harder.
And harder he got, he made sure to get rougher with Life which made the head of his cock bash into her womb again and again by her cervix this time.
"Oh fuck Deathy!… Y-You're the best!" Life moans.
Death chuckles like that wasn't obvious as he fucked Life harder and harder until…
Life moans loudly as her pussy tightens around Death's cock before climaxing on it.
Death got a strained look on his face as he floods Life's womb with sperm, making it bloat and overfill in no time as a result.
Life moans more as she climaxed more before finally tapping off.
Once this happened, Death removed his cock and his sperm flowed freely from Life's snatch while her womb shrinks to normal.
Life shudders when she felt that.
"H-Hehe… T-Trying to knock me up Deathy?" She teased.
"Hehe, maybe, I've always wanted to see you have a swollen belly with our young… maybe we should ironclad our relationship by getting married in a Glob like way." Death teased when he grins at Life.
Life was a bit surprised after hearing that before smirking.
"If you're serious… then let's do it."
"Good… I'll wait till your back with the rest of your sexy bod… for now… may as well practice for the honeymoon hehe." Death teased while his cock was iron hard when he looks at Life's asshole.
Life giggles before she got on her hands and feet and shakes her ass at Death to entice him.
After this, Death struck when he moved to get behind Life and after aiming his cock, he forced it deep into her tight ass and fucked her hard after a minute or two of adjusting.
"Oh yes!" Life groans loud with delight.
Death on his end chuckles while he used a hand to smack Life's ass a few times.
"Hehe… such a slutty ass enjoying things even at this size, last time if I remember, you had a tough time taking it, guess things changed huh?" Death teased as he smacked Life's ass a few more times.
Life groans more from each smack.
"Y-Yes!"
Death smirks more as he continues to smack and fuck Life's ass while making sure he held his orgasm back while he enjoyed the noises Life made as his cock barraged her ass again and again.
Life was now having a fucked up look on her face as she was moaning and groaning loud while begging Death to be rougher.
And rougher Death got when he roars as he fucked Life's ass making his cock get 3/4th of the way inside of Life's tight ass while he gripped her hips fully.
Life was really moaning loud with how rough Death was as time passes before feeling her orgasm approaching.
A minute after that happened, Death growls as he forced his cock deep in Life's ass and roars when he floods her ass with sperm making her stomach bloat in no time.
Life groans very loud before she climaxed beyond hard on Death's cock.
Death groans from the feeling as he enjoyed how tight Life got on his cock, once he and Life ride out their orgasms, Death chuckles as he pulled his cock free while a portal opened nearby to show Life's other half, Mikoi, and Flaria returning though the group blushed when they saw what happened just now as Death chuckles.
"Well Well Well… the late duo with the plus one… though in this case you could have taken a bit more if you wanted." Death teased as he grins at the trio… mainly Life and Flaria.
Flaria blushes as Life giggles.
"We could… but unfortunately, we're on a time table for the moment."
"And the extra 20 minutes hehe?... well no matter… if Mikoi got her urges out of the way, should be simple for a 10 minute combat tutorial to see how well she can adapt to her body… got one more gift as well, giving her a new scythe to help with her abilities after hearing about what she has to use in order to be more eco friendly with souls… the old one she has will have to be upgraded and sent to her later so here…" Death said as he snapped his bony fingers and a portal opened and out came a deadly looking scythe that looked mainly made out of bones and had some purple glowing bits between the bones… think Dante's scythe from Dante's inferno for a general idea as it floats before Mikoi who looked surprised by the gift.
"W-Wow… this is… amazing." Mikoi said after grabbing the scythe.
Though Death grins when Mikoi grabbed the scythe… a black mist erupts from it and gave Mikoi a new cloak like outfit which seemed to flicker at the ends near her legs like black flames cloaked her body.
"Eh, figured this would be a good gift… you can store the Scythe and cloak of Darkness inside your Core after you practice a bit with it… heard from this Life you may as well be a step daughter or something of Life and mine so may as well make it official by saying welcome to the family Mikoi… would give a hug but as you can see, in the nude more or less, anyway if you want to test out the scythe and stuff, may as well open a portal to Ooo in a certain location so you can try it out… need to speak with Life… and her other half and Flaria about something while you are gone, may send a guide later to help with getting you around Ooo since its been awhile for you." Death said while he grins at Mikoi while she looked at her new outfit… she had no shoes but she was used to that but the cloak like dark fire robe just looked pretty badass with the scythe… was still nude under the cloak but given how most people on Ooo were nude, this was just for modesty for children's sake more or less and her core was covered so no one would see her weak point.
"Well thank you… father." Mikoi said.
"Welcome but don't think that becoming our daughter makes things easy for you, remember you still have a job so you need to make sure to do your best, here, a portal to a graveyard, a necromancer is trying to raise the dead in a bad way and I need you to stop them, consider this a easy mission to get used to your new body and stuff, not sure what the gender is but given your usual antics with people to torment, doubt it would matter much, oh and if you gain a knack for manipulating the scythe, you can alter your clothes as well and stuff… just a tip before you go… and I'll send a soul who has an instruction manual for the scythe and stuff brought over… need to write one so try and harvest some souls in the meantime as training until than." Death said as he opened a portal to the mortal world before Mikoi who got a determined look on her face.
"Don't worry. I'll make you both proud." Mikoi said before she entered the portal after saying bye to Flaria and her new family.
When she entered and Death closed the portal, Death chuckles as he looks at his girlfriend/wife and Flaria.
"Well that was interesting and what not." Death said when he placed a hand on his bony hip and the other Life groans when she made herself known to her other half and Flaria.
Life giggles at her other half.
"Hey, enjoyed yourself with Deathy I see?" She said.
"Hehe… hehe… yeah… especially when Deathy wants to knock us up… hehehe…" the other life said with a pleasure induced look on her face as sperm leaked from her pussy and ass still.
Life blinks before smirking at Death.
"Is that right?" She said.
Death chuckles a bit as he looks at Life.
"Oh yeah… figured it was time… so Life… considering how long we known one another… want to make me the happiest Deity here and be my wife and make it official?" Death said as he snapped his fingers, got on one knee, and pulled a intricate looking necklace from a portal.
"Considering the size we normally have, figured a special necklace would do better than a ring for now… at least until I can get one that can multiply and change size and stuff." Death said when he looks at Life lovingly.
Flaria was surprised to see this as Life, though surprised, was smiling happily at Death.
"Oh yes Deathy! A million times yes!"
After Death equipped the necklace on Life, she hugged him around the neck though she blinks when she felt something poke her body between her legs when Death stood to hold her in his arms.
Life teased her now new fiancé.
"Looks like someone is eager for more."
"Well when you have a beautiful Globbess in your arms, what male can resist getting worked up, why not return to normal or tag team with your other half and we head to my place… after I give Flaria the instructions for Mikoi's scythe, thing should be done soon so if she wants to say… have a free pass to Ooo with maybe a plus one to say hello to her daughter, can't exactly stop her if she wants to take a detour… I'm in a good mood for good reason after all." Death said while he winked at Flaria a moment later.
Flaria was surprised to hear that and needed that opportunity to see Phoebe.
"I will definitely do that sir."
"Good… head to the first Dead world and get Viktor and bring him back to Life and I at my home so we can fill you two in and stuff, remember that you two still owe us so try and not run and stuff… no one can escape Death after all… who knows, stick with Mikoi and help her with your job… and I may say… look the other way if Life would say… make you and Viktor new bodies to return to life?... just consider it the rambling of a Glob hopped on on happiness right now… now if you'll excuse us, we should get going." Death said as he picked up Life and her other half and opened two portals… one for himself and the two life's, one for Flaria who looked surprised at what Death said as he moved to enter the portal which left Flaria alone.
"As surprising as that is… need to get Viktor." Flaria said before she went to get her husband.
For those who do not know, the former Flame King, or FFK in some cases, didn't get a name yet so he will be called Viktor unless a canon name is given, after Flaria entered the portal, she was in the first Dead world… similar to the Nightosphere this place was a hellish Dead world made to torture evil or twisted mortal souls, unlike the demonic souls so guess the Nightosphere had a different category of souls to torture or maybe the Nightosphere was for those who were too evil for the first dead world to take… either way, when Flaria got to the first dead world, she was in a massive building made here that housed various workers and one of them, a ghostly monster born here to torment souls looked at her.
"Hey Flaria, looking for Viktor?... well he is helping out some souls and workers with a really rowdy guy, came here recently and seems his sins was murder and blowing up various women, seems to have a screw loose and said something about a master and stuff… seems to have gotten mixed up with a different multiverse since we don't have some kind of beast of the Unknown and stuff." The monster said as he looks at Flaria. (For those who don't know, look up the Unknown in Ooo and you'll know who Viktor is having some trouble with hehe.)
Flaria blinks after hearing that.
"Okay… not sure what to think on that but anyway, need to find Viktor and tell him some good news."
"He's at the 30's slime pool north of here, if you see a pool full of lawyers, you ran too far." The Monster said as he hobbled away from Flaria to file some paperwork.
"Ok thanks." Flaria said as she heads to the direction of the slime pool.
After some running, she managed to see Viktor using some flames to blast a soul back into the slime pool he was stationed at and wiped his forehead.
"Geez man, give it up, you're here for a reason after all… can respect the stubbornness though." Viktor said to a crazed soul who shook a fist at Viktor.
"I will get free sooner or later for my master and have my revenge against that Ink obsessed beast!" The Crazed man said as Flaria ignored him when she got to her husband who looked at her.
"Flaria?... shouldn't you be guarding the 20th dead world with the other guards?" Viktor said while he noticed Flaria smiling at him.
"I was but something big is happening." Flaria said as she tells Viktor what happened between her, Life and Mikoi, Death proposing to Life along with a mission to help Mikoi before going to the end.
"… so not only helping Mikoi gets me a free pass to the land of the living, but… I get to bring… a plus one." She said while smirking.
Viktor got wide eyes and he gave her a serious look.
"You serious… especially about that trip to Ooo?" Viktor said as Flaria smirks.
"Very… could have helped out down there and if we play our cards right… could not only get new lives or we help out others below… but have a long overdue honeymoon again and again as we help Mikoi." Flaria said when she moved to kiss Viktor on the lips.
Viktor was again surprised before he hugs Flaria and kisses her back.
As Flaria raised a leg when Viktor hugged her, the Crazed man's eyebrow twitched.
"Oh come on, first that axe wielding bastard and that wood nymph bitch but now you and that flaming woman?... what is with the couples I run into lately?" the Crazed man said as Viktor flipped the man the middle finger as he carried Flaria away from him while a few monsters moved to torment the crazed man as the scene went to Mikoi as she appeared in a classic looking haunted graveyard and grins when she saw that she could have plenty of fun fighting… and more when she saw a few shapely ghostly women nearby talking to one another.
"Oh this will be fun. Once I deal with that Necromancer, gonna enjoy some sweet ghost ass." Mikoi said.
After she said that, she got in a guarded stance with a grin as many zombies start to erupt from the ground with malice filled looks in their eyes and as Mikoi charged them with the Scythe at the ready, the scene fades to black.
