When Three become One, and One Become More.

AN- I use many names and references from Diablo I and Warcraft II in this story. Ask Deadeye for more information. Also Deadeye I do not have Diablo II so just think of this story happening before Diablo II did.

It was a swearing light. It was all greens and blues and purples. Then it was dark. Jason must have come out of the time portal. He hit the ground hard and then he passed out. When he awoke he was in a wooden house. It was light in the room and he was in a bed near a window. On a table nerdy there was an old fashion gas lamp. There was a door to the left of the bed Jason was in and out of the window he saw a water foutain and a lot of other buildings. Off to the side of his view he saw a sign that read, "Welcome to Tristram."

Jason looked back inside the house. He felt his head and there was a huge scar under his hair on one side of his head. He must have fallen when he had gotten out of the warp that Alpha and Gamma Cell build. It was then the Jason remembered Deadeye saying something about a town called Tristram were a huge monastery lay. He said that the monastery used to be a sanctuary to a group of powerful mages calling themselves The Order of Horadrim. He also said that now the order was no more. He said that the orders task was to find and capture the Evil Three within the soulstones given to them by the Arch-Angle Tyrael. And finally he said that they had succeeded in their task but after they were all dead one of the Evils had escaped. (Wow, can I recall information.)

Jason sat up but quickly fell back down on the bed. He was very week. The travel through the warp required immense energies. Just then a man walked in. He looked about in his 50s and was wore a cape and his face was painted. His hair was long and white and his clothes were very strange with weird designs all over them. His sleeves fell well past his hands and strapped to his back was some kind of staff.

Jason opened his mouth to speak but the man beat him to it and said, "Don’t speak. You’re very weak. When I found you, you were falling. You had come out of some kind of portal nearly 6 miles high and you were un-conscious. You hit the ground headfirst and cut you head. By the time I got you hear you had lost a great deal of blood. Drink this it will restore you energy and heal your wounds."

The man handed Jason a small bottle. Inside was a dark red liquid. Jason drank it. Soon a strange sensation came over him and he felt his strength returning to him. As he was healing he saw that his hair was almost shoulder length and his finger and toenails were longer. He was wearing a blue rode and brown simple shoes. Jason sat up. His Ki was greatly lower but that would come back as time went by.

"How long have I been out for mister?" Jason asked.

"Nearly thirty moons child." The man replied.

"THIRTY DAYS!!!!!!!" Jason said in shear shock.

The man didn’t reply to Jason shock he just looked at the teen for a moment. He saw even from the beginning that Jason had control of a great power that was not known to this world. The man was as powerful Sorcerer. He had killed Diablo’s physical body and trapped him in the soulstones once more. He had saved the land from the escaped evil. Though his power was great this boy’s was somehow stronger. Now that the boy was awake he could no longer contain his curiosity.

"Boy, I see that you have great power. I sense it. But this power is not from the use of mana but it is still magic. Explain yourself boy." The man said to Jason.

"First of all, my names Jason. I am not from this world. I am from another dimension. There the definite energy there is called Ki. It is very rare and very powerful. My five friends and me are the strongest mortals to exist in my world. One of them, Deadeye uses your energy, what it called again… oh yes, Mana as well as our energy Ki." Jason said answering the man question.

This was the answer that the Sorcerer had expected. It was the only logical answer to his question.

"Who are you? And you to have a great power." Jason said.

"You can sense Mana?" The man said in surprise. He had the ability to hide his power unlike most things with Mana.

"Yes, Deadeye taught me how to sense it so that I could see truly how powerful he is. He Ki level is smaller then the rest of use but his mana makes up from that lost so me and him are about the same power level as well are the rest of my friends." Jason said.

"I see. Well my name is Ner’Zhul. I am the strongest mage in this land." The man said.

Jason tensed at the man’s name. Ner’Zhul was an evil Orkish Shaman of the Shadowmoon Clan that Jason fought and killed. But then he remembered that was a different dimension and so they were not the same people. Plus the evil Ner’Zhul was dead. Jason got up. He powered up and as he did so he got back the energy he had lost when he lost most of his blood. Ner’Zhul was half surprised and half scared of Jason huge power but he saw it was good and calmed down.

"That reminded me were did you learn to sense Ki? I can sense any of it in this world." Jason said powering down.

"That is my specialty I can sense all power and forces of magic." Ner’Zhul replied.

Later that day after Jason cut his hair and nails and after a bath in a hot spring Jason went outside near the water foutain and sat down. Ner’Zhul was already there. He appeared to be meditating. Jason had gotten into his cloths the he was wearing when he come to the land. A white T-Shirt and baggy gray jeans. By now Jason’s full power was restored and he had fully recovered from his fall. When Jason sat down Ner’Zhul had gotten up. He said, "So, can you use Mana?"

"No, I don’t know how to. Deadeye refuses to teach me how. He has a little grudge agents me for some old reasons I don’t quite remember." Jason replied.

"I could teach you." Ner’Zhul said.

"No, its ok, If Deadeye really wanted me to know he would have taught me. I don’t really care anyways. I am perfectly happy with Ki." Jason replied. (I know totally unlike me but I don’t want Deadeye to think I copying him.)

It was a clear night. You could see the stars for miles. It was very beautiful. Jason scanned the area for any Ki other then his own but found none. That meant one of two things. One Cell was not here. Two he was here and he was doing a very good job at hiding his power.

"Nice cape" Jason said.

"It’s called a turinash. It’s a custom cape of the Vizjerei Brotherhood of Mages. I used to be a Vizjerei Mage but I quit because the clan seems he be becoming evil. They have been hunting me down to kill me after I quit but I have been able to kill or evade any mages that come for my life. The I moved to Khanduras an not a mage has come for me since." Ner’Zhul said.

"So why did you come to this land." Ner’Zhul asked Jason. It was time. Jason knew that sooner or later he would have to answer this question.

"I came here fallowing a powerful creator naming himself Beta Cell. He has great power, and he wishes nothing but destruction. My friends and me are trying to stop him." Jason said.

"I see. Well my ability to scan for Ki is limited. And as I have see from you Ki can easily be hidden. If I can I will help you in your quest." Ner’Zhul said.

"Thank You, I could use the company." Jason replied.

Jason and Ner’Zhul talked for a wile exchanging stories and information about each other. After a short time there was huge explosion of mana off to the west of town.

"Shit, I better go cheek that out." Jason said.

"How you going to get there?" Jason asked.

"Well, I can fly, but I am not going to. I can get there in seconds. Trust me." Jason said.

"If you can then take me to." Ner’Zhul said.

"Ok, grad by hand." Jason said.

Ner’Zhul did and Jason shimmered them both to the explosion zone. After recovering from the sensation of a shimmer Ner’Zhul fallowed Jason to get a closer took at who caused the explosion. The looked around but could not find out what had caused the explosion. After the dust died they looked into the crater made by the explosion. Inside they found an entry to the Labyrinth. The pathways took them to a big room with a book on a podium in the middle or a huge hectogram in the middle of the room. The book was some kind of spell book and standing at the podium was Cell.

"CELL, WHAT ARE YOU DOING HERE?" Jason screamed but Cell gave him no answer. Instead he read from the book.

Cell read, "All this time you have sleeted. All this time you have waited. All this time you have dream of the destruction you could cause. Now you can. Arise and awaken."

Just then Ner’Zhul and Jason saw the three soulstones in front of the podium.

"NO, STOP TTHAT SPEEL WILL RELEASE DIABLO, BAAL, AND MEPHISTO!!!!!! DON’T!!!!!!!!!" Ner’Zhul screamed but it was to late. The essences of Ball, Mephisto, and Diablo were set free in new physical bodies. The Cell spoke from the book again.

"Now that the Evil Trinity have been set free my they merge and become one all powerful evil. My they make a power so strong that no mortal or Angle can kill it. Not even God himself." He said.

Then the three became balls of mana and energy and merged to become one energy. The power Jason was sensing from the ball of energy was gigantic. It was far greater then Cell’s or his own or any other power he ever felt. Wind was swirling around the ball and the ball grew in size.

"No, it has begun. The destruction of the mortal realm." Ner’Zhul said.

Quickly Jason grabbed Ner’Zhul’s arm and shimmered them both to the safety of Tristram. Jason first though was to fight this monster but then his human half came in and said it would be wiser to run and regroup for now. It was just then that he realized the wristband that allowed him to travel through them dimensions back home was not there.

"Ner’Zhul what did you do with the wristband I was wearing when I came here?" Jason asked afraid to hear the answer.

"It was broken when you fell. Totally destroyed..." Ner’Zhul said.

"No…" Jason said.

"…But what dose that matter now the world is over. There is now way to face a power like that of the new prime evil." Ner’Zhul continued.

"Snap out of it now is not the time to sit her complaining. That monster’s power is not all that greater then my own." Jason lied. Jason’s only way out was a risky shimmer through dimensions now but he could not leave without trying to kill the new prime evil first. Not to mention Cell. Jason’s only chance was to contact Kobra. Kobra and Jason had been friends for so long that they had created a metal link with each other. Since they both have the ability of telepathy they could use this link to project thoughts for greater distances. Hopeful that means they could send thought through different dimensions. Kobra also had the power of teleportation through the power of Blink. This power fallows the same basic rules as Shimmer and hopefully she can Blink to Jason’s location.

"Listen Ner’Zhul, I’m going to call for some help from my world. We may need to give her medical help as soon as she gests here. How long till the new evil become aware of himself and begins his attack on the mortal realm?" Jason asked Ner’Zhul.

"It will be at least a week before the being wakes up. We will have time to tend to your friend." Ner’Zhul said.

"Ok, I myself may need some help as well. What I am about to do is very straining on my mind. All right here we go." Jason said.

Jason closed his eyes. He sent his essence along the telepathic line. He was able to see the fabric of time and space to the world he was in slip away and the new one to his world appear. It was very, unpleasant. Storms, and Fires, and all kinds of disasters would happen at the rim. Then it would be dark. Only for a moment then the new time and space. Then when he got to Kobra he said, "Kobra, help…" and hoped she got the message. When Jason retracted him essence he collapsed. The communication took very much Ki to pull off. He recovered quickly and walked with Ner’Zhul inside the house to get ready for the coming battle.

Back in Jason’s time Kobra was with Nix, Dragonett, and Majin waiting to hear word from Jason or Deadeye. Kobra fell to the floor when she got the message. He had gotten hit with the backlash of the energy loss Jason felt when he pulled back.

"Kobra, what is wrong" Nix said helping her up.

"It’s Jason. He contacted me from another world. He said, "Help me…" and what was it." Kobra said.

"What do you think he means?" Majin said.

"What do you think it means" Kobra said in sarcasm.

"So what are you going to do?" Dragonett asked.

"I’m going after him. I’m always the one who ends up saving his ass." Kobra said grabbing one of the wristbands that allowed her to use the portal.

She stepped in and came out in a land of Lava. She could not sense Jason’s power any were. Soon she realized Jason was not there in that world.

"He must be in another world. Ill try to Blink to him." She said to herself. Then she Blinked.

Ner’Zhul was in the first room in the house when he heard a knock on the door. When he answered it there was Kobra standing in the doorway. The streets cleared out. The people thinking she was a monster.

"Monster!! Jason the war has started, a monsters here get in here." Ner’Zhul said as he charged a Fireball and threw it at her. The ball hit her arm destroying it. She regenerated after a few moments. Jason ran in soon after she regenerated.

"Hold on Ner’Zhul, that’s my friend." Jason said.

"That beast is your friend. It looks as if it was a creation of Baal." Ner’Zhul said.

"Gee…Thanks" Kobra said.

"Stop it. She may look evil but at heart she is good." Jason said.

Ner’Zhul powered down his mana and Jason and Kobra sat down no the floor of the house. Jason told her all he know about the new evil and all that she needed to know through telepathy so Ner’Zhul did not hear them. He might have been able to hear them but the did not let them know.

"So by help you meant that you wanted me to help kill this new demon thing." Kobra said.

"Ya, that about the hole of it." Jason said.

"And the huge power I am sensing is our enemy?" She continued.

"Yep" Jason replied.

"Oh My God." Kobra finished.

"Yep. That two." Jason said.

"Great…" Kobra said.

"Well, there is something that might help." Ner’Zhul cut it.

"There is a very old legend that says, When darkness fill the sky and the ground becomes red with blood two fighters of another time will crush the evil with the might of weapons of old because when all magic fails rely on 3 feet of steel and a strong arm." He said.

"Ok, well we know that we are the fighters, but what are the weapons of old?" Kobra said.

"Well, there is said to be a Sword in the mountains, it’s a Legendary blade called Tizon. And in the wood near Tyrs’ hand there is said to be a Legendary bow with arrows of fire. Both are hidden and protected with many beats. And besides that these weapon require the user to be able to use mana. They may work with this Ki of yours but I don’t know." Ner’Zhul said.

"Ok then. Ill get the Sword, you get the bow." Jason said to Kobra.

"I will defend the village from the monsters that are now leaving the Labyrinth." Ner’Zhul said.

"Ok, we will meet here in 2 days." Jason said then shimmered to his destination.

The mountain in witch the Sword was hidden was high and hard to move on. Jason would have flow but then he might miss the location of the Sword so he could not. Normally Jason could sense the aura of the Sword but this time he could not find it for some reason. After hours of searching Jason came across a Temple that was dedicated to the worship for Mephisto, the Lord of Hatred. The temple was still active so there would be many demons and dark monks that Jason would have to kill. When he entered he had found many corpses of people that had gone missing in the past few days. There were Zombies and Fallen Ones all over the building. Here or there he found a Dark Monk. These dark Priests and a good deal of magic but were still easy to deal with. As Jason went further and further into the temple the demons that he had to face grew more and more powerful. The walls were covered in blood and the stench of burning and rotting flesh filled the area. All over the place were murdered people, there bodies rotting. Men, Women and even Children alike were all over the place dead and rotting. The horrible site were some of the most fowl that Jason ever had the fate of looking upon. Finally he came upon a chamber that had a Sword in the heard or were a heart would be of a long dead man. There Jason sensed an aura of great power. Just as Jason walked in the room a huge stone door closed locking him in the room. It was then he heard it. It was Cell, his voice. He said, "Nice to see you Jason."

"What do you want asshole." Jason said continuing to walk toward the Sword. When Jason was about to get the Sword Cell Zanzokened right in his path. He said, "I wish to kill you, just like I did Deadeye."

"There is no way you killed Deadeye, you bluffing." Jason said.

"Oh, am I?" Cell said throwing down the dead body of Deadeye.

"No…" Jason said now seeing that Deadeye was dead.

"I will not let you kill Gul’Dan, the new evil. Because if I do I will not be able to add him to my power." Cell said.

"So that’s what you named it, Gul’Dan. After the Orkish Sorcerer?" Jason said.

"Yes, it has a nice ring to it dose it not?" Cell said.

"Well, I think is sucks." Jason said punching Cell with all his might. The punch only made him flinch but it was just enough time for Jason to Grab to Sword and Zanzoken to were Deadeye’s body lay. Cell anticipated this and shot a huge Ki blast in that direction. The blast hit Jason just as he stopped bringing him within dead. He had just enough energy to Shimmer Deadeye’s body and the Sword along with himself back to Ner’Zhul’s house. When he awoke after being knocked out his Ki had returned due to the use of red potion and the heal other spell from Ner’Zhul.

Where’s Deadeye?" Jason said getting out of the bed.

"If you mean the body you brought back with you. It’s in the next room. I used the Resurrect spell to bring him back to life. Normally I would have to do this at the person’s place of death but I improved the spell to be able to do it anywhere. He is asleep now, and his Ki and Mana are back up. He will be awake shortly." Ner’Zhul said.

"Can you tell how he was killed?" Jason asked.

"I see." Ner’Zhul said.

Jason and Ner’Zhul walked into Deadeye’s room were Kobra was taking care of him. He had healed for the most part with help from Pippin the healer and spells of healing from Ner’Zhul but that only heals the physical woods. The emotional trauma of being dead and the moments that lead up to it will curse the fourteen year olds mind forever. Deadeye’s condition was stable but it could change at any time. Later on it was determined that Cell had killed Deadeye with a Big Bang Attack. The blast had hit his front end and knocked him out instantly. He had died from loss of blood afterward.

"Jason, Deadeye dose not look to good. I can keep his condition up but once I have to go off to fight Gul’Dan I don’t know how well the old medical treatments of this place will work with his Sayin DNA." Kobra said.

"Then you will have to stay here and keep Deadeye’s heal up." Jason said.

"What do you mean Sayin DNA?" Ner’Zhul asked.

"Well me and Deadeye are only half human. Both out fathers are an alien in our world called Sayins. That’s how we can transform into Super Sayins and raise our power." Jason said.

"I see. And DNA is?" Ner’Zhul asked.

"DNA is the basic genetic code that makes up all life. Each kind of life form has DNA." Kobra answered.

"How long till Gul’Dan wakes up." Jason asked.

"Judging by the energy signature of his energy ball, 2 days." Ner’Zhul answered.

"Then I will be fighting alone." Jason said.

"No, you wont…" Deadeye said. His voice was week and faint but it was there.

"Deadeye, are you ok." Kobra said turning to face Deadeye on the bed.

"Ner’Zhul quick get him some red and blue potion." Jason said.

"I’m on it." Ner’Zhul said running out the door. Moments later he returned with the two potions. After Deadeye drank them his Health and is Mana were fully restored. His Ki would be back us to full as soon as he powered up.

"Deadeye, what happened to you? Cell said he killed you." Jason said.

"Well, I was at Hell Forge. I had just destroyed the soulstone with Baal in it and Cell found me. He was going to add Baal’s power to his own but I had killed Baal’s spirit making it impossible. He tried to kill me but I was ably to hit the button of my wristband just as the Ki blast hit me. I came to the planet Zahadune were I died. Cell fallowed me and must have taken my body to you." Deadeye said sitting up in the bed.

"Zahadune, that’s the home world of the Shadows. A race of evil fighters that think evolution come on through the wake of conflict." Jason said.

"When I was there I remember coming out in the middle of a big battle. There were these strange ships that were all black and then on the other side there were even more strange ships that were for the most part multi color." Deadeye said recalling the events on Zahadune.

"The Shadows and the Vorlons. They are mortal enemies." Jason said.

"What ever." Deadeye said.

"Deadeye is there anything you know about a prime evil named Gul’Dan?" Kobra said.

"What about Gul’Dan. There’s an old legend that says when conflict comes to the West Kingdom again a stranger from hell will unite the prime evils to make an unsupportable force……Oh my god……What the hell is that I am sensing?" Deadeye said.

"That would be Gul’Dan" Ner’Zhul said.

"What the hell happened Jason?" Deadeye said.

"I came through the portal after you when we didn’t get word from you and this is were I ended up. I was in some kind of coma for nearly a month. When I came to I found Cell at the crater of an explosion. He merged Baal, Diablo, and Mephisto." Jason said.

Jason told Deadeye all he needed to know. Deadeye being a master of the mystic arts decided that it would be best if he used Tizon the sword. It was nearly dark at Tristram. The sun as setting off the horizon. The sky was all reds, and yellows. The time to strike Gul’Dan was soon at hand. Nearly three days passed before Gul’Dan first strike. His first strike was on the city of Othos in the far East Lands. The new evil must have been moved by Cell in the time it was asleep. The city was completely destroyed by a huge blast of mana. The spell was determined to be the Flash spell because there was a blast of energy came from the town center that destroyed the doomed city. Othos was a huge city that was formed by many traveling magi that decided to settle down in an area and start there own Mage Clan. Survivors from the destruction of the city were non-existent. Travelers that went through the city the next day reported seeing nothing of the city but ash, and rubble. The city of Othos had a population of over 4000 Magi and at least 3000 peasants. Othos was not the only city to fall to the hands of Gul’Dan that day. The cities of Pyles, Arkasa, Begothia, Volatha, Appedi, Mesohodi, and Kasos were all destroyed with a total death count of over 13 million people.

There was no pattern to Gul’Dan’s destruction or any way to find out were he would strike next. He would come out of some kind of gateway, destroy a city and then leave for the next. The time to strike Gul’Dan would be when he came to Tristram. Gul’Dan’s attacks were so swift and devastating no one has even yet to see his face. Gul’Dan brought with him an army of the undead from Zombies to Gargoyles. In a matter of days Jason Deadeye and Kobra had built up an army of magi. Over 13,000 mages from all over the North, West, East, and South Kingdoms gathered in Tristram. It was the biggest gathering of mana and Ki in one area of all time. Kobra decided to return to their world to avoid the destruction and to gather other Ki users to help in the battle. There once she had gathered enough fighters she would come back to Tristram to either help aid in the battle or, come back to a destroyed city and record the Slater in history.

Nearly two weeks had past since Gul’Dan had awaken when he finally came to Tristram. These are the events that unfolded that day.

"Deadeye, the mages will hold off Gul’Dan’s army, we have to take the evil itself. I say, LETS ROCK!!" Jason said flying toward Gul’Dan at top speed Deadeye 3 feet away Sword drown.

"Here we go. No turning back now." Deadeye replied.

Jason and Deadeye flew off toward Gul’Dan. They flew over a forest. It was nighttime. It was so dark the only think you could see was Jason and Deadeye’s aura and Gul’Dan’s giant form off to the distance. It was a peaceful seen for the most part by them, but back at the town things were a lot different. Demon and human corpse were all over the place. Spells suck as the Firebolt, Charged Bolt, The Holy and Un-holy bolts flew across the now nearly destroyed town. For every mage that was killed 3 demons were vanquished. The demon army was a lot larger then that of the magi. Millions of demons ran over the countryside at the garrison of 13,000 mages. The battle was a horrible sight for any eye. A band of traveling Rogues eager to join in battle had shown up to aid the magi but even those few sisters of the sightless eye would not be able to change the outcome of the battle. By the end of the day the city of Tristram would be destroyed with only a few survivors to escape.

Deadeye and Jason flew ever closer to Gul’Dan giant form. As they flew closer to the mass of evil it was getting harder and harder not to be thrown back by it’s power. As they got closer to Gul’Dan they could see him more clearly. He had horns that came from the top of his head and curved all the way down to his chin. He had a red body that looked like human muscle. His arms welded two huge swords. His mana was at a very high level. Gul’Dan held no Ki from what we could tell but his mana was so huge that there was no need for Ki. Finally when Deadeye and Jason arrived at Gul’Dan’s location Deadeye drew the sword Tizon and Deadeye took out the bow that Kobra had recovered. The bow had no name but it turned out to be exactly like the Hero’s Bow from Hyrule.

"Ahhhhh, I see that there are two being foolish enough to try and stand up to me and my power." Gul’Dan said with a hideous laugh that he no doughtily had gotten from Diablo.

Jason and Deadeye said nothing but Deadeye flew forward and tried to slice Gul’Dan horrible form with Tizon. He was unable to though he was thrown back by Gul’Dan shear power. Then Jason tried to hit Gul’Dan with a Light arrow from the bow. He had mastered archery as a hobby when he was younger, so his aim was dead on. When he let the arrow go it hurled through there air surrounded by a bright yellow light. It looked as if the arrow would hit Gul’Dan’s head right on but when it came near his demonic form it bent backward and flew back toward Jason giving him just enough time to dodge it.

"That is enough playing, I shall now finish you and destroy…" Gul’Dan started but stopped when Cell’s voice came in and interrupted.

He said, "That enough. It time to join your creator."

At that moment Gul’Dan turned into a green ball of light and shrink to a small size. Then the ball flew back and went up Cell’s now open tail. At that moment the Earth began to shake and split open, and lava erupted out of the cracks. The air became thick and humid and the stench of death filled the area. It was the apocalypse of the world of Diablo I. Jason and Deadeye fuelled all their power into two huge Ki blasts and shot them at Cell’s now transforming form. They had no effect on Cell. With no energy left in either of them Jason tuned to Deadeye and said, "I guess this world was damned from the start. Deadeyes, we better get out of he now and re-group in our world. There is nothing we can do for this place now."

"Yes, your right lets go." Deadeye said pushing a button of his wristband and disappearing. Jason soon Shimmered back to his world as the world of Diablo I exploded.

AN- For anyone that cares I forgot my Telastar disks at home thus I cant work on that story in Greece.
