"So tomorrow sounds good right?" Dante messaged.
"Of course! I can't wait to see you, finally!" his girlfriend, Kurisutaru, responded.
They had been talking online for about two hours now. The Internet was how the two met, they had become lovers and finally decided to meet.
"Alright, I have to go to bed now, I'm exhausted, goodnight love you,"he said.
"Okay, love you too, night," she finished. She signed offline, and headed for bed herself.
______________________________________________________________________________________ As soon as Kurisutaru awoke, she took the hairbow out from her slightly flopped ponytail and stared at it. "Are you ready for this?" a male voice rung within her mind. "I've never been more ready for anything in my life and you know it," her eyes faded as she spoke to no one inpaticular. "Fine then, you best know what you're getting into,"the voice disappeared and she regained her true eye color. She shook any worry off and got dressed, called her best friend, Faith, and headed out the door with the cell. "Yeah, you might as well pick me up,"Kuri said looking at her watch. Faith laughed, "are you scared?" "Um yeah! Just a little bit,"Kuri smirked. Kurisutaru pressed a button on the front of her watch and before she could look up, a silver Lambourghini Countach appeared as she grinned. "I got the Firewall, baby, yeah-yeah, are YOU ready, Faith?" "Oh yeah buddy! Come on down and pick me up in that fine car of yours sista,"and with that Faith hung up. ______________________________________________________________________________________ "Come on, K, what's taking you so long? And in such a fast car, too,"Faith started tapping her fingers on her window paine waiting for Kuri to arrive. She sighed and turned off towards the kitchen then heard that beep she knew so well. "I don't have all day!"Kuri shouted from the sunroof. "Are you sure YOU should be driving? You don't have a driver's license or anything!" Faith picked up her bag and ran towards her side of the car. "Oh well, you-know-who is my excuse,"Kuri sat down and set the drive to reverse. ______________________________________________________________________________________ Kurisutaru parked the Firewall, locked it, and hopped over to Faith shaking. "You're nervous now aren't you?" Faith smiled, "I am too, you know that." Kuri nodded and held herself walking toward the mall entrance. They stopped in front of the food court, "this is it, Faith, gosh, what if he doesn't like me?" "Oh please! He's going to love you! Now...GO!"she pushed Kuri to the arcade's entrance and made a funny face, "you're going to go in, and like it!" Kuri's eyes got big and watery, and she started whining. Faith rolled her eyes, pointed inside the arcade, "GO." Kuri took in a deep breath, "fine...here goes nothing--when here goes something..." Then that male voice struck Kuri's mind again, "be prepared for anything." "Yes," she thought in return, "I know very well to be prepared." "That must be them!" Faith pointed. They both walked over to two tall boys that were occupied playing a video game. Kuri slightly tapped the tallest one on the back where she could reach, "Dante?" He turned around, his eyes struck her. "K?" he turned around completely. Faith smiled and noticed the other one looking at her, "Zach?" Zach, Faith's boyfriend, smiled at her, "its about time, don't you think Faith?" As the conversation started to flow, Kurisutaru laughed and stopped when she noticed something in front of her chest glowing. She grasped her necklace to make it look like nothing out of the ordinary was happening. The light grew brighter and larger until when they all opened their eyes--what they saw wasn't the arcade. "Princess, I need to talk to you," a tall male stood before Kurisutaru. He was 6'5, light blonde hair, white eyes, and was wearing a white muscle shirt with blue baggy pants that were held by a gold bar belt. Dante and the male checked each other at the same time, like they already knew each other. "Um..guys, this is SS3," Kuri gave a faint smile. "I need to talk to you," he said again. "In front of them?"she tried to whisper, "couldn't you wait?" "You'll be glad I didn't once you hear me out,"he took her by the shoulders. Dante gave him an angry glare, Zach just stood there beside him, and Faith started singing a little song--she knew SS3 fairly well, but the boys didn't have a clue. SS3 beckoned them over to a large screen computer, "I guess you all might as well know everything now, while we're alive." Kuri gave him an odd look when he said this, "alive?" He closed his eyes and finished, "okay..as you can tell you're not in the real world--this is my dimension within Princess's soul kind of deal, this computer here is SEMI--she's the strongest SuperComputer yet, I made her. I made Kuri's Lambourghini as well, The Firewall. SEMI controls it, the Firewall has a special use--its nothing but a weapon you can ride, it'll turn into a sport motorcycle, you can set rocket launchers and radars and poisons." Kuri and Faith smiled, but Dante and Zach stood there dumbfounded. "Just get use to it, that's your only option as of now,"he finished. "Well--why did you bring me here?" Kuri asked. "I'm a target..." he looked over to his side. ______________________________________________________________________________________ Two weeks earlier, another dimension: "Number Two, what have you found on our little search for a strong male?" a deep voice called from a shadowed throne. "Well, Master...we found that the strongest male ego here in this time is a male called 'SS3', sir." a minion replied. This unknown dimension was owned and lived by evil dominate male egos, the ones that possess regular human males to make them hurt others--especially females. Their leader, Evince, was seeking and checking every other male ego in the real world to make sure he is the strongest. "SS3? Hm, interesting name, what male body is he in?"he leaned back in his throne gazing at Number Two. "Well, sir, its not exactly a male body he's feeding on..." Number Two bowed his head in fear. "WHAT DO YOU MEAN NOT A MALE BODY?!" Evince arose, electricity shot from his body and was held back by an aura a few feet from his flesh, "ARE YOU SAYING HE IS LIVING INSIDE A FEMALE?! A FEMALE?! THE SCUM OF THE EARTH?!? YOU BETTER BE JOKING ON THIS ONE, NUMBER TWO!!!" "No, sir, he's hiding within a female body..that would be the smartest place to hide wouldn't it?" Evince pumped up and shouted, his screams were the only thing heard and felt within the dimension. ______________________________________________________________________________________ "So these egos want to destroy you, because you're the strongest?" Kuri blinked doubtfully. "I'm not the only one they're after," he glanced at Dante. ______________________________________________________________________________________ "Sir! Sir!" Number Two ran up the stairway to Evince's throneroom. Once he got there, he took a breath from his running, and looked up to his master's fiery eyes, "I have some news that might intrigue your interest, sir." All Evince did was raise his head, as a sign of attention. "There's another strong ego, the second strongest, but get this, sir, its a young male, quite young for his strength,"he finished. "You mean I'm now the third strongest?" Evince asked, "hm..we have to destroy this one first--if his power is increasing, he might become as strong as SS3. And we don't want that now do we?" "No, sir.." ______________________________________________________________________________________ Kuri was in Dante's arms after she heard that he was a target as well, "what's the plan? What do you want me to do?" SS3 looked at her in shock, "you're not doing anything, you're staying here so you won't get hurt." She narrowed her eyes, "I SAID WHAT DO YOU WANT ME TO DO..I'M NOT GOING TO SIT AROUND HERE WAITING FOR EVERYONE TO DROP DEAD!" SS3 smirked, "of course, what was I thinking? I taught you better than that, didn't I, Princess?" "So what do you have planned?" He walked off to a large silver-sealed door, "follow me." They all looked at each other and walked with him. When they passed the doorway, they saw a huge laboratory with human-sized tubes and machines pumping and grinding everywhere. SEMI's monitor was in here as well. "Welcome to my laboratory,"SEMI greeted. They all looked at the screen, it was pitch black with a measure line moving with each of her words. Dante and Zach stared at her, not blinking, until she noticed their rudeness, "what are you looking at?" "She's not stupid is she?" Zach looked over to Dante. "Guess not," he replied. Then they turned toward a panel SS3 stood behind. He laughed wickedly, "I have an idea! Kuri, Dante, come over here!" They walked over to SS3, then SS3 took them by the arms and placed Dante over a orb shaped platform to the left, he did the same with Kuri except to the right. "Okay, Dante, this might hurt just a little bit..."SS3 ran back to the panel, pressed a gear foward and turned some knobs. Kuri smiled at Dante, after what SS3 said, she knew he was a little nervous. Tall auras of light encased both Danta and Kuri, they closed their eyes waiting for the unknown climax they would experience. Kuri's hair and loose clothing started to float, Dante grunted as forces started to pound on him. Out of nowhere, Dante screamed and the light around Kuri became so bright she wasn't visible. Dante's eyes widened, and he fell, the light around Kuri broke and when it all shattered she wasn't the one standing there. A shadowed figure reached out with their head down, then quickly glanced up with evil eyes. The eyes changed from dark green to dark brown. Then electricity wrapped around them, and left the fresh new body by zapping towards every direction. There stood a tall, dark haired young man with a white muscle shirt, and a white over-shirt. "Kuri..Kurisutaru?"Faith and Zach took a step closer, more afraid than anything. "Yeah..?" the male responded. Faith's eyes got big and let out a huge smile, "Oh my gosh, take a look at you!!!" Kuri looked over to a metallic door, her reflection wasn't her at all, "what happened to me??" "I fused you two in a way...his ego is now inside you and possessing you,"SS3 let out a big goofy grin. "Oh..my..." "THIS IS SO COOL!!!" Faith jumped. Kuri gave her a weird look. Faith acted like she had a microphone, "so, K, what do you have to say to this marvelous transformation??" Kuri placed some silver-framed sunglasses over her eyes, "Just call me Dante." "Great, you'll be fighting this way, that way you can destroy the egos without either me or him getting harmed, but don't worry, we'll help you when you need us. Oh, and whatever you do, DON'T allow them to find out who you really are, because of me, you should be able to pull off being a man, so...I'll update you soon okay?" SS3 picked up Dante's sleeping body and faded out of sight into another dimension. "Woohoo, I did it, I did it," Kuri danced over to SEMI, "SEMI, honey, dress these two up." Faith and Zach flashed and when the light faded, they were wearing special coated uniforms for battle. "Alright, now I have to make some calls," Kuri walked off to another panel and started dialing some codes. "So, you liking all of this so far?" Faith smiled. "To be honest, I'm not sure if this is even happening," Zach scratched his head. "Did you call?" four young ladies stood in a opened doorway. "Good, I already explained everything, and now you're dressed for battle, perfect!" Kuri shouted to them. The first one to walk out to Kuri was Sami, then Renea, then LeAnne and Raye, four other best friends that would be needed to win the battle. "Well...where do we start?" Sami asked. Kuri looked at the roof of the lab, "I have no idea, SS3, this is where you come in!" Back to Main
