What happens next with our questing heroes?

A vacation in the desert turns into an eventful honeymoon in the jungle for both sets of our lovers.  They make short work of the council and Mephisto so that they can get back to celebrating.

A very hormonal, pregnant sorceress proves to be Diablo's toughest opponent yet as she hands his ass to him and then goes searching hell for ice cream, dragging a frightened Annor along with her.  (Thane begins to wonder just what kind of being he may have spawned…  Martenus swears he's never having children of his own.)  And poor old Baal faces a VERY pregnant, very pissed off sorceress who desperately needs to use his bathroom.

Nightmare sees Cain boning up on his babysitting skills, and Mephisto, Diablo, and Baal face two lovely ladies that just want to kill them and see what they drop so they can trade it in and go shopping (for stuff for the baby… of course…).

Hell sees both Meize and Annor pregnant (crap!), looking for ice cream…

"And pickles!"

…and pickles throughout hell.  The Three Brothers just give up, give them the ice cream, pickles, roast chicken, and everything else the girls asked for just to get them off their backs, promising to serve the light if they never have to face these two again.

And they all lived happily ever after.

A few years later…

"Daddy, I want to be a paladin just like Uncle Martenus!"

"WHAT?"

"But paladins are so cool with their swords and their auras…"

"But raising skeletons and exploding corpses is way cooler!"

"No way, Dad.  That's so lame."

"ARE YOU CALLING ME LAME?!"

----- "Honey, let your son out of the bone cage…"

"Could at least want to be a druid…"

----- "…tell one of your golems to mow the lawn…"

"Summon wolves or something…"

----- "…send in one of the skeletons to start making dinner…"

"Carrion vine would be nice…"

----- "…and then help your daughter with her flaming skull attack* project."

"HEY!  Who's the one that controls the minions around here?!"

----- "Me.  Now start vacuuming!"

*Well, she is a sorceress-necromancer cross breed…

This was my original ending.  I had never intended to write beyond Act I, but inspiration bit, and I've started writing Act II.  The plot outline has been drafted, and now I just have to write the story.

Watch for Chapter 14 – Here We Go Again – Begin Act II to appear later this fall.
