Morrigan POV:
The warden smiles at me as she repeats her speech to me once again.
"Just do what you have to do. Knock the demon out of Connor. I know you can do it; just don't get yourself killed.". I sigh and remind her of how the fade works.
"If I die in there, then I'll just wake back up.". The warden's face turns into a scowl and she shakes her head.
"I still don't want you dying, you hear?". I nod and Tabris finally moves. She moves to stand by Leliana. The archer instantly wraps a possessive arm around the elf. I feel both anger and resentment at what the human's doing. Having her controlling the warden could possibly mess with the plan I currently have going. Originally, I was going to try to get Alistair to do what needs to be done. However, Tabris has proven easier to befriend and a better fighter. The elf is obviously going to be more willing to listen to me and do as I say, but Leliana could be a force that would work against me.
If I was smarter I would have broken them up before they got this close. Unfortunately, my heart has gotten involved. I want my elven friend to find happiness, and her temporary fucking of Leliana is bringing her happiness. I won't steal that from her. Just in case she dies. I'm still hoping to sway her to perform the dark ritual when the Archdemon finally rears his head, but a backup plan isn't bad. This backup plan being 'make the warden happy before she dies'.
I turn my attention away from the elf and her lover; instead, I turn back towards the ritual the Circle is about to perform. A potion is shoved into my hands and I roll my eyes before downing it. A slight tingle runs through my body before my eyes go blind. A crack comes from somewhere and I assume it's my skull hitting the ground. My vision pops back. I'm standing on a thin strip of rock in the middle of the fade. I turn my eyes from the eternal chaos in the sky and continue along the only path I can take. A man's voice rings out through the abyss, but I ignore it. I can't afford to be distracted right now.
A slight ripple in the fade makes me aware of an enemy up ahead. My spine shivers as I turn into a tremendous, spiked bear. My steps slow as the creature I seek comes into view. A lessor demon. Some weak sin hoping to feed upon the master of this domain. It sees me and begins 'swimming' over. I allow my jaw to fall open and rear onto my hind legs. Two swipes of my gigantic claws wound and stun him. My jaws cracking his neck is what ends him. The smaller demon disappears in a flurry of flavorless smoke. I lick my clean snout before going through portal deeper into this realm. The next path I take leads me straight to the demon. The creature is masquerading as the little boy. The demon cowers as I approach and tries to pluck on my heartstrings.
"Stay back! Help! Monster!". I charge forward without any hesitation or remorse. My jaws wrap around the child's throat and the demon transforms into its normal appearance. The desire demon scrabbles away while calling a lessor fire minion to assist it. A single swing from my claws shred the lessor creature into thin lines of bloody, pulpy meat. The minion disappears as smoke while I snap my jaws onto the desire demon's leg. The creature hisses and slashes at my eyes. A thin, sharp cut opens up and begins to bleed into my right eye. I roar in pain out of instinct and stumble backwards when the bitch begins swinging both of its hands towards me as quickly as it can. I rear onto my back legs again. A large, long wound is cut into my exposed belly before I stomp the demon to dust.
I snort and shake my head. My wounds are bleeding, but neither are too severe. This form has enough blood to spare before the belly one scabs, and the one on my head is only occasionally making it harder to see. Blinking is taking care of it well enough. I turn and descend back down the path that was lain for me. The portal spits me out into yet another area. This path is a tiny bit longer than the last one; however, it still leads me to the demon almost instantly. The fake boy is now hiding beside a bed and already cowering when I find him. The demon keeps trying to play off of my emotions.
"You're the one making father sick! Get out! Get out, get out, get out!". I sink my fangs into Connor's arm. The demon erupts from his flesh and punches me as hard in the head as possible. I snarl and growl and dig my fangs in even deeper as my vision blurs. The demon swings its arm around and summons a stronger minion to help it. The flaming demon grabs my neck. I can't do it anymore. My jaws click open and the desire demon goes flying away from me. The fire demon's claws are sinking into my flesh and my ragged fur is beginning to smoke. Meanwhile, my skin is starting to burn. I bring one arm up and wrap it around the demon's torso.
My claws barely manage to rip its abdomen open. Smoky, unnatural organs spill from its body and the creature collapses. My fur is still smoking and my skin aches. A tiny bit of blood fills my right eye and I blink. The desire demon is currently flailing its arms in a complex, lengthy spell that will no doubt turn me into a rug. I roar once to get my blood pumping and my courage up, then charge the demon. The demon grunts as I slam into its stomach with my thick head and end the spell. The desire demon hisses as my head turns and my fangs sink deep into its guts. My fangs wrap around a fake stomach and rip it out of the demon.
The desire demon hisses and tries to get a dying attack out. It fails horribly and my ear is just buffeted back a tiny bit. I smirk as the flesh in my jaws turns to dust and air. I snort out the demon and turn back around. The portal takes me to yet another area. The demon is obviously weakening. The path to it isn't even a true path. It's just a few steps forward into another 'room'. The demon's boy form is shuddering and bending around the edges. The fake Connor speaks with the voice of a demon and does a last ditch effort.
"Please, leave. Save father.". I stand on my hind legs a mere few feet from the 'boy', let out a roar that shudders the very fade, and crash down on the demon. Both of my tremendous paws come down with a crushing blow on the boy's chest. The demon hisses and two stronger fire minions appear. I'm force to stumble backwards and let the desire demon crawl away. Both of the minions stalk forward with fiery hands outstretched towards me. A growl that shakes the arena causes both to hesitate for a split second. I snap onto one of the demon's hand and feel my mouth start to cook. I tighten my jaws as tightly as possible before having to release it. The flaming demon stumbles back and howls in agony while clutching its shattered hand. I turn my attention to the other fiery demon while ignoring my aching mouth.
I swing once with my right paw at the demon's chest. It caves inwards, but the monster stays standing. I swing a second time with my left paw at the demon's neck. Boiling blood spills out of the tremendous cut and the demon collapses into a pile of nothingness. I flip around and see the other fiery demon attempting to heal his shattered limb. I stand onto my hid legs, shove my paws upwards while extending my claws as far as possible, and smack my body downwards like an executioner's ax. The demon floats away as specks of dust. I turn my head towards the desire demon. The creature is lying on its side and holding its abdomen.
Thick, black blood is spewing from in between its fingers. I strut over to the demon with a growing smile on my snout. The creature hisses at me as I raise my paw above its head. A crack fills the fade as dust collects on my paw. I shake my body and take inventory. A burn on my mouth, a scabbed-over cut above my eye, a bleeding wound on my stomach, and some minor burns around my neck. I scratch up the ground to sharpen my claws and try to imagine how long it would take to transform back to my human form, heal myself, and turn back into my current form. I eventually decide it'll take too long and turn back towards the portal and wherever it'll take me next.
I'm taken to a circular stone with multiple smaller, likewise circular stones in another circle inside the large circle. Mainly, the arena is a lot of circles. The demon is no longer taking a weaker form in an attempt to fool me. Now its stands at its true form waiting for me. The demon is sharpening its claws and offers me a toothy grin as I approach. The creature raises its arm in an attempt to halt me. Instinctively, I pause for a single second and the demon takes that as acceptance. Its voice rings around the arena and causes my spine to shudder.
"Peace. Let us break bread and talk. I wish to come to an understanding between you and I. Surely there's something you need that I can provide in exchange for my current form. Isn't there?". A low, thunderous growl is my response to the demon. The creature shakes its head and lets a deep sigh leave its lungs.
"That's a true shame. I was hoping not to have to kill you.". The spry, agile demon hops onto my back before I can react. I scream and rear like a horse as the demon digs its claws into my fatty shoulders. Its clawed feet come to rest on my hips and tinier, sharper claws dig into the fat of my hips. My arms flail and my claws connect with nothing but air. I roar in pain as fangs sink into my ear. The demon begins shaking its head, tightening its hands, and kicking with its feet.
My feet begin sliding backwards and I realize I'm slowly tipping backwards due to the fact that the added weight of the demon is too much. I keep roaring and flailing, but start to intentionally lean backwards. The demon doesn't fall for it. The creature's jaw stops working and its claws begin leaving me. I don't allow it. I throw all of my weight backwards as hard as I possibly can. The demon crunches beneath my fat bear ass and it starts smacking my lower back. I roll onto my stomach and smack a thick, heavy arm across its stomach. The demon hisses and starts clawing my flesh.
I drag myself on top of the demon until I'm literally crushing the demon beneath my chest. My snout is shoved onto the demons face and I sniff it in a sort of 'taunt'. The demon's arms are trapped beneath me, so it's forced to snap with its fangs while struggling to fight its way out from underneath me. I smirk and slowly open my mouth. Bear slobber and slime falls onto the demon's face. It screams as I carefully swallow its head into my skull. I make sure to suck my tongue deep into the recesses of my throat to prevent the demon from biting it. I mouth the demon's head a little and hum like I'm tasting a fine wine. I feel the demon beginning to get free from beneath me. I smirk before crunching down and ending this.
