Even in winter the California sun can warm the coldest of crevices. There was a slight breeze as we panned up from the valley looking over Santa Barbara. Below was the yachting club and a marina full of boats. As we came up we saw a bright metallic blue Ford Mustang. On top of the hood wearing pink shorts, a green tank top, with pink headband and her hair pulled tightly into a ponytail was Melissa Aki.
“I am the co champion of the Hollywood Heritage title with that vacuous bitch. I mean, like, really? I should be the outright champion and you all know it. Well this will be rectified and if I lose a match I am stripped of my co-ownership. Fantastic as I know I cannot be beaten by any one unless they cheat. I am the motherjamming face of this company!
I need to offer my congratulations to Samantha Tolson. She did it. She overcame the odds and beat Kross which is always something good to see and I do know that I Makihouse kicked her but it was down to my own anger issues and soon Sammy you and I will face off in that ring and I cannot wait.”
She paused. Surely she was being disingenuous like one of Legions other dimensional visits where the threesome believe they are some almighty realm. Funny thing is she has a key to that door and one day she will tear it down from the inside.
“So we go again Legion. Last time we faced you got that win you craved so badly but what has happened since then? What have you done since except stagnate? You are changing the way you see life. I know. I have seen your wonderfully dull tweets. Where is that fire Legion? Where is Knightmare? You have sounded nothing but mediocre which I know you are not but what do you attain by playing this little game of who can be a little sheep?
It's like you want conformity over being different. This is a very weird and skewed version of life. So you want to conform to the bullshit of society now? WHAT IS THE MATTER WITH YOU? I always liked you because you were not normal, slightly insane and a hell of a warrior in the ring but this side to you is just plain pathetic and trust me after I have beaten you black and blue you will realise conformity is for the mindless media obsessed cretins of this country. I will bring the real Legion out. I do not want to simply beat this alternate version of who you are. I am going to beat the Legion I known for years one way or the other. You cannot wear that mask with me!”
As she said this she could see the horizon and all of a sudden the sky had a nasty red hue to it, all below her was rock and ash and burning bodies, the water had receded to be filled with gigantic sinkholes. She looked aghast at what she saw in front of her. Had she talked through the end of the world? Oh nothing that easy. She walked down the hill and saw pits of fire with what looked to be human beings hog roasted as they screamed.
She could see the way they shimmered, the last vestibules of their spirit being taken from them like a mist as it circled, then spiralled up into the hole in the bloody sky. The blood of the fallen was dripping as more shimmers were seen dropping down. Little blankets of souls appeared as Melissa Aki did not know what to do. Everywhere she looked there were these skeletal creatures hustling and bustling around. They would stop stock still and appraise her before moving on.
There was a crash and she jumped back at this skeletal form much akin to a bat on earth but as it spread itself it was about ten foot tall. It also appraised her. For one of the few times in her life she was scared.
“How lovely of you to drop down here, vessel.”
Melissa screwed her eyes as she frowned.
“Daniela. That what you really look like? Sheesh you're hideous and huge! So you brought me here? for what purpose? I haven't given anyone my soul.”
“Straight to the point, vessel. I like it. The word down here and from Persephone is her favourite lost soul Legion will be in close proximity to you, yes?”
She liked the old Legion and detested the new version or the mask she has decided to show the world but the interesting thing here was that Legion was wanted in hell too.
“Yes. We have fight and I need to win and I will win. You cannot stop me from knocking her the hell out and claiming victory. This is all on me.”
The thing guffawed so loudly she thought her eardrums would explode but inexplicably they didn't.
“No vessel. You have no say in the matter. You have already made the decision to allow me to take control in this. Why else would you be here now when you could have easily closed your eyes and the world as you know it would have remained? This is the time for Daniela to strike. You being an ignorant little worker bee probably failed to realise that there is a hierarchy here and I know it's hard for your feeble mind to comprehend but Persephone is my erm manager of a sort. So she has put Legion as my number one priority. You don't matter, understand? I could have just taken you over but I have grown quite fond of you and wanted to see your reaction when you believe the greatest lie of all - Free Will.”
She put on one of her smiles she uses to cover up emotional distress, wondering about Daniela and her words but then her thought train raced and she thought about something else entirely.
“How do you fit inside me? I mean I guess it's in my consciousness or subconsciousness but still the two of us don't fit you know?”
A black cloud erupted into bloody droplets as Melissa began to look like she had starred in another remake of Carrie. Daniela was none too pleased.
“STOP TALKING NONSENSE! THIS IS HAPPENING WHETHER YOU WANT IT OR NOT! Legion will be taken apart piece by piece until her soul longs to be taken by me to my Persephone. That is all that matters.”
The figure known as Daniela suddenly disappeared as Melissa looked from her left to her right and a sick and twisted look spread across her face as she stuck her tongue out to feel the taste of the acrid blood falling from the sky.
“It's good to be back.” She walks awkwardly as the demoness tries to get used to this body again. She then shuts her eyes, in a second hell turns to mist and we are back in the world of the living.
“Ding Dong Legion is dead. Oh Legion I have cherished this moment since we last met and now it's time for you to kneel, swear to the Legions of hell and welcome yourself to your new home. We look so forward to torturing you on this plane of existence and in the world beneath your disgusting meat and bones. If you feel you have any chance to stop this from happening you are as clueless as you are debased. Welcome to your new reality. It is your home from henceforth. See you soon little sinner. In the meantime I am going to have some fun here in this mortal coil and skin some meatless bastards! Toodle pip.”
She waves her hand awkwardly and she disappears from view as our screen is cracked and the sound of a phone dropping to the ground.
