"Are you quite sure that we want to have a go at this?" Karksin stated as he and the gooey red shark girl next to him began to walk down the summoning hallway, the dragon's eyes glowing purple briefly to use his arcane energy to unlock the stone door at the end of it. "So far you had to deal with rubber dragons and neoprene sharks in this quest to find a goo naga that might help you. What happens if this time we try and summon someone and we get those people that attempted to catch you previously?"

"From the sound of it these Nexus creatures are far more prevalent than those others," Shikosa replied with a smirk on her muzzle as they actually walked into the summoning chamber. "If Renzyl really remained true to his word then he was able to tell Athear that we're looking for him, and as such they might be more likely to catch the signal that you put out there into the realm. Just try to... direct it towards him."

"I think that you might have to try this out yourself and see that it's not as easy as you think it is," Karksin stated with a small smirk on his face, rolling his eyes when she grinned sheepishly at him. "Alright, make sure you stay out of the circle and we can see if we get this Athear into our realm. Though I don't know if it's going to help try and think of what he might look like in your mind, maybe it's going to be a matter of two minds being better than one."

Though Karksin tried to remain confident about what they were going to do both knew that this was basically still a shot in the dark. The Nexus realm that the dragon was calling to was a vast place filled with all sorts of creatures, which meant it came down to whoever decided to answer the call. It didn't stop them from remaining hopeful however as the eyes of the dragon glowed purple once more and arcane energy started to swirl around him. The goo shark could feel his power growing as it was channeled into the symbols below as it spread out from his paws.

The atmosphere in the summoning chamber grew positively electric as the last of the lines etched into the ground became charged with magic. The signal had been sent; all Karksin could do at the moment was keep the portal open for whomever decided to answer it, purple wisps of vapor rising up as the barrier between this space and the one they were calling out to began to thin. Would they find themselves staring into the eyes of a goo naga, Shikosa thought to herself, or would they find themselves face to face with something different? As the seconds passed she wondered if anything was going to answer at all as nothing appeared to come from the other side.

After about a minute the dragon continued to hold the conduit open as his head turned towards the shark. "I think that this might be a bust," he said, his voice echoing slightly from the magic that was suffused through his system. "No one appears to be answering the call, perhaps we can try again later."

"I suppose..." Shikosa said with a sigh as she frowned. "I was hoping that we would at least get another brother... so we can... talk..." Her sentence trailed off as she looked down at the dragon's forepaws that were situated on the circle. "Karksin, your paws..."

Karksin looked down to see what the goo shark was talking about and his eyes widened when he saw that his normally brown scales had turned into the same sandstone as the floor beneath him. When he attempted to pull them back he let out a grunt and found them cemented against it, like he was part of the stone itself instead of just on top of it. When he tried to move his back legs in order to get more leverage to pull himself back he found all he could do was tense his muscles, both of them looking back to see that his hindpaws had undergone a similar transformation. When Shikosa moved to go and help him the dragon quickly told her to stay back, using his tail to barricade himself from her as it also started to petrify the second that it touched the ground.

"I can't disconnect myself from the circle," Karksin warned, the symbols on the ground starting to form where his scales had already been transformed to rock. "I can't stop whatever power this is from leaking through, you have to get out of here before it fully envelops me and starts to spread even further.

"The hell I am!" Shikosa replied angerly, watching tendrils of the stone creeping up the dragon's stomach as his panting increased.

"I'm not letting you become a statue like me!" Karksin shot back with an equally angry tone before it softened, the dragon gasping slightly as the glowing purple glyphs continued to grow on him as the petrification reached his back and his wings began to stiffen. "Go into town and find Draliyo, he should be able to help you counter this magic in here. I'll keep trying myself but I can already feel the power spreading inside me... it's starting to get hard to... speak at all."

Shikosa wanted to continue to argue to save him but she could already tell that the power of the dragon was starting to spread beyond the confines of the circle. As the shark looked past Karksin she saw a plant in the corner go from green to tan, the leaves turning the same stone color as the room around it. "I'm coming back for you," the goo shark said as she began to hurry towards the door to leave. "Try not to go anywhere."

"Very... funny..." Karksin replied, the dragon having a hard time to speak as the petrification. "At least... I know... it's... from one... of... the brothers..."

"A brother of Renzyl?" Shikosa asked, watching Karksin continue to try and move his mouth despite the stone coloration creeping over his jaw. "How do you know?"

"It feels... so... GOOD!" Karksin's last word was punctuated with a roar before he went completely silent, his mouth frozen in the pose of pleasure as the symbols that had covered the rest of his body slowly began to move up his neck towards his head. Though it was hard for her to see Shikosa realized that it wasn't just the dragon's body that was rock hard, the shark able to see the dragon's maleness fully erect between his legs. It was a power that they had been exposed to before, but unlike the rubber dragon this appeared to be something entirely different as more things in the room began to turn to stone.

Before Shikosa could contemplate going back the door to the summoning chamber suddenly slammed shut, not only barring her from entering into the room again but also containing the power within. From the look of it Karksin had somehow become an extension of the summoning circle that was leaking the magical energy of the realm he had connected to, she thought to herself as she turned to run back into the building proper. If that was the case and the dragon really couldn't turn it off then the room itself wouldn't be enough to contain the nexus energy that these brothers could generate. It also meant that they hadn't managed to find Athear either, whatever brother they happened to summon seemed to have dominion over the exact opposite of liquid and goo as she popped out from the tunnel and into the house that she shared with Karksin.

As she gathered up her things to head into the city one thing that the goo shark was grateful for was that Karksin told her that it was one of the brothers that was trying to get through. From her experience with the shark known as Famjin as well as Renzyl they didn't appear to be the type to physically harm anyone, instead just transforming them like what had happened to the dragon. It didn't stop the fact that whatever conduit that had been cemented between their realms had turned him into a statue, but it meant that there was likely a means to reverse it. Still... she found herself pausing after bringing up the hood she wore to hide herself in the city as she realized that meant Karksin was frozen down there in the summoning chamber waiting for rescue.

Shikosa quickly shook off that feeling and replaced it with a renewed sense of determination as she made her way into the nearby town. Though Karksin had deliberately placed his home on the shore away from the city limits it was only about a half a mile walk, close enough to reach easily but far enough away that any potential problems that came with his magic wouldn't affect the citizens. The goo shark found herself wondering if that was going to be enough space as she walked under the gate that separated the town from the wilderness beyond. While she had visited the place enough times she continued to remain cautious on letting her identity get known while she looked for the shop that had the magician known as Draliyo staying inside...

Meanwhile a group of three men were pulling their boat up to the beach, which had a number of fish that were in the middle of it as they laughed and joked. "Don't know why people don't come to these bluffs to fish," the tiger man pulling on the back of the boat said. "Everyone worried about the magic dragon that lives nearby."

"Their loss," the elf that was gathering up the fish said. "I know I'm not superstitious enough to let something scare me like that, not with yields like this. I'm sure that you don't regret coming with us anymore Barry, right?"

When the bull man failed to respond both the elf and tiger looked up at him and saw that their third fisherman was looking down the beach with wide eyes and a look of awe on his face. They quickly followed his gaze and saw what had captured his attention, the other two stopping the prep of the fish to take into the town when they saw something slowly walking towards them. In the dying light of the day they could see the vague shape of the dragon walking along the beach, its body glowing with glyphs and symbols along with the bright purple eyes that seemed to be staring straight at them. The bull and elf began to whisper back and forth on whether that was the one they were just talking about until they noticed that the third in their party had become to move towards him.

The voices of his companions were drowned out by the pounding in the tiger's ears as he found himself approaching the dragon, hearing whispers that he couldn't quite comprehend as his eyes locked onto those glowing purple orbs. Even though the creature approaching him was something that should have caused him to run, the dragon looking like it was made out of solid stone like some sort of statue, all he could do was continue to move forward. It was like this thing was calling him, resonating with something inside him as he found himself reaching out. The other two fishermen shouted at him to get back to the boat so they could try and run with their catch but it appeared that it was falling on deaf ears as the two approached one another until they were only a foot or so apart from one another.

As Karksin looked down at the tiger the effects of the magic that permeated his stony body quickly began to seep into the feline in front of him. The fur of the fisherman's chest seemed to stiffen as the two continued to stare at one another, the tiger enraptured by the eyes of the dragon as his own started to become tinted with the same purple light. The first thing to be affected by the magic that radiated from the dragon however was the clothing he was wearing. Since he had been out fishing the entire day the only thing he was wearing was a skirt that had been secured around his waist with a rope and a pair of shoes, but as the tiger's chest began to swell from the magic suffusing into it the cloth grew stiff, then shattered and fell to the ground as it was pushed out by his erection.

The other two fishermen couldn't believe their eyes as the tiger suddenly became naked in front of them, his bare rump exposed before he turned around. It wasn't long before his shoes met the same fate as his skirt, breaking apart from the feet that had started to expand as the fur on his body started to melt. All they could do was watch as the tiger fisherman presented himself to the dragon, whose gaze had turned from the tiger to the other two just as he moved forward in order to be on top of the other male. The fisherman tried to shout to their friend to get away from there but was clear from the glow in his eyes that whatever power the dragon used had taken over their friend as the throbbing stone cock of the creature began to lower down to the tailhole of the tiger.

As Karksin's maleness pushed inside the creature below him the physical touch caused the arcane energy radiating from him to immediately channel into the body of the male beneath him. The tiger's rump hardened immediately to stone, though it remained yielding enough that he could still push himself inside as the tiger let out a loud gasp of pleasure. It wasn't just the sandstone coloration that was spreading onto the one beneath him either, as the ridges of his cock popped into the tailhole and spread open the other male the glyphs and runes that had been on his summoning floor transferred from his body onto the tiger. For the dragon the only thing that ran through his lust-drunk mind was how amazing it felt to spread to another, to create another statue like him as the hind legs of tiger became frozen in place while being spread out for easier access.

Just as the other two fisherman contemplated leaving their friend and their catch behind to run into town they saw the tiger facing them panting, his stomach bulging from the bigger dragon's cock inside of him. It didn't appear that he was in any distress; in fact it looked like he was thoroughly enjoying himself as the living statue began to thrust inside of him. The other thing that caused them to pause was that his heaving chest had frozen in place and the sounds of pleasure the tiger was making ceased to come out of his mouth, and though they were somewhat far away they could see why as the fur of his throat began to match the rest of his body in melting into smooth, solid stone. It wasn't long before the face of the tiger became locked in orgasmic bliss before it became as petrified as the rest of his body.

The other two fishermen readied themselves to run when they saw the dragon statue thrust in a few more times before pulling out of the petrified tiger, who remained completely still aside from his stomach reverting back to normal when there was no longer a foot of cock inside of him. At first they thought that they were going to go after them next but instead Karksin just wordlessly changed direction and walked up towards the woods, leaving the tiger statue there on the beach as the waves began to lap up against the stone body. Once the dragon had disappeared out of sight the two slowly approached their petrified companion, seeing the glowing purple symbols on his body pulsating in intensity. Everything about the feline was completely still, his shiny stone form glinting in the light as both the elf and bull seemed to take notice of the erection jutting out from between the tiger statue's legs.

"Great, now what are we supposed to do with him?" the bull said as he circled around their petrified friend.

"We'll have to go into town and get someone," the elf fisherman replied as he looked down at the face of the man, feeling himself swallow hard as he saw the look of lustful bliss that was frozen on it. "This probably isn't the first time that someone has been turned to stone, there are mages that can probably undo this. We're going to have to do it before the tide comes in though, the last thing we need is to try and look through the sand after he gets completely buried."

"It would serve him right," the bull replied. "What the hell was he thinking, going up to that thing like this? I can understand getting your rocks off but not when it turns you into one!"

"Well..." the elf replied, finding himself blushing slightly as the other fisherman suddenly looked at him. "Even as some sort of statue creature that dragon was pretty handsome. I wouldn't have gone as far as him but the thought was there."

There was a look from the bull and though he huffed and crossed his arms it appeared that the elf had uncovered that he may have had similar feelings. "Well we certainly aren't going to be able to carry him," the bull quickly stated. "So unless you want to have your way with him I think we need to go into town and tell someone that a dragon turned our friend here into a statue after having sex with him."

"Have our way?" the elf replied, causing the bull to once more huff. "You aren't thinking... what I think you're thinking, are you?"

"No! No..." the bull stated, though the other male saw him bite his lip as he looked back down. "It was just a joke... though I guess it would be no different than that time we tangled him up in the fishing nets and had a little fun. He seemed to... really enjoy it too..."

Without realizing it the two had gotten quite aroused themselves, and since they were wearing the same thing the fisherman was their erections became quite clear. They didn't realize that the tiger was radiating the same energy that the dragon was, and as their minds became clouded by pleasure they both felt a need to penetrate the male beneath him. Both of them realized they had gotten into the perfect position to spit-roast their friend, and as they touched the tiger they found the smoothness of his hardened flesh unusually appealing. It didn't take long before both males couldn't resist anymore, both of them fishing out their cocks with the pull pressing the head of his between the cheeks of the feline while the elf did the same in the open mouth of the tiger.

Neither of them knew what it would be like to penetrate someone that had turned into a statue but they found the insides of the feline quite pliable, though they failed to notice that the second they had given in to their temptations that their bodies had started to turn to stone as well. For the tiger statue his changes had also began anew, the feet hand hands buried in the sand swelling with growth as his muscles began to thicken. As the clothing of the two broke away from their bodies after having been turned to stone the elf gasped as he was brought forward by a hand on his rear, looking down to see the glowing purple eyes of the tiger looking up at him as the tongue of the petrified male began to swirl around his shaft. The bull spreading open the insides of the changing tiger let out a gasp as well as he saw the stone and glyphs spreading on his groin, and when he tried to pull out he found his cock lodged firmly inside of the statue that was transforming them.

As the eyes of the bull and the elf began to glow their bodies also began to shift, the magic growing stronger with them joining. While the bull fisherman began to grow bigger and his snout became more angular it was the elf that was having the most severe changes, his face pushing out into a muzzle of stone as his pointed ears became finned. At the same time the tiger's tail grew a fin and a triangular one also appeared on his back, all three of them gaining aquatic features as the two turned to stone like their friends. It wasn't long before the tiger was completely animated... though he was trapped between the two petrified, transforming males that had their growing cocks shoved deep inside his throat and tailhole. It wouldn't be long before all three would be released however... the glow of their bodies becoming more intense as the fish in their boat began to turn to stone.

Back in the city Shikosa finally found the one that he was looking for, the battered sign in the shape of a flask hanging in the otherwise empty alley connected to one of the main roads. Though Draliyo was a friend of Karksin the goo shark knew him enough that it was him when he answered the door after she knocked. "Oh, Shikosa," the dragon replied, recognizing her as well. "I wasn't expecting you, did Karksin run out of supplies already?"

"No, but he's the reason that I need to talk to you," Shikosa said as she looked around. "Mind if we take this inside?"

The grey-scaled dragon nodded and stepped back to allow the goo shark inside, then used his forepaws to close and lock the door behind her. The shop inside was littered with odds and ends that was typical of the dragon's profession, though not a lot of ferals took part in the skill of being an artificer this one seemed to have a knack for it. Draliyo quickly led Shikosa through the shop and up a set of stairs to the second floor of the building that was the domicile of the dragon. Once they had taken a seat the goo shark proceeded to explain the situation to him, including the fact that Karksin had turned into a statue and had cemented the conduit into the realm that had petrified him in the first place.

"So you're saying that these Nexus creatures as you call them are able to breach into our reality and alter things about it?" Draliyo summarized, Shikosa nodding as she sipped on the drink that had been given to her. "How fascinating, while we know that there are other realms beyond our own to think that there are those that have such power they can manipulate the very fabric of reality. The fact that power is seeping into this realm with no way to control it is certainly a problem, and since its being filtered through Karksin it means that it will keep using his arcane ties to pour into here until not even his glyphs can contain it."

"That's probably why he told me to come to you," Shikosa replied. "He probably thought that you would have some means to either repel the magic that is coming from him or possibly even neutralize it completely. Of course then there is the fact that we have to revert him from being stone to close the leak as well."

"I actually think you might be more helpful on that aspect then you realize," Draliyo replied as he got up and moved over to his workbench where a litany of parts and magical objects were scattered, the dragon taking his tail and putting a specialized bench under his hind legs to keep him upright while he worked. "Since I'm aware of your special abilities I think that you might be the perfect means to bring him back from his petrified state. He told me that you had turned him to goo previously, so that stands to reason that you could probably do something similar with the right tools to bring him back to flesh and blood."

"Oh... he told you about that, huh?" Shikosa said, grinning sheepishly as the dragon gave him a smirk back. "To be honest I kind of wish I had thought of that, could have stopped this from happening right away."

Draliyo just shook his head as he began to work. "If these creatures are as powerful as you say then it would have been more likely that you would have just been a shark-dragon statue down there instead of just a dragon one," he explained while he concentrated. "I can make a device that will hopefully nullify the magic that Karksin is pumping out, although it would be nice to have a sample of the power I'm going to have to make do with an educated guess. Shouldn't take me too long to whip up a nullification device, just sit tight and we'll get your dragon back to normal in no time."

Though Shikosa still felt anxious at the idea she knew that Karksin had sent her there for a reason, going back towards the couch in order to let the dragon do his work. She wasn't fond of playing such a passive role in this rescue operation but knew that soon her time would come when she would storm the summoning chamber and save the day. At the same time she felt her gel muzzle turn up in a grimace at the thought of the summoner trapped down there, his still body being a conduit for the magic that was trapping him in place. As she laid there however one thought did cross her mind... if they had linked to the realm of one of the Nexus creatures, then where were they?

A sudden shout brought the goo shark out of her thoughts, Shikosa sitting up as it was soon joined with another. With her curiosity piqued she went over to the window and looked outside to try and see what was happening. Though they were on the second floor of a building surrounded by those of similar height she still had a glimpse of what was happening out on the main street. What she saw caused her eyes to widen; what appeared to be a statue of a wolfess had her arms wrapped around a lizardman, and as she stood there completely still the panic on the man's face became frozen as his scales turned to stone and the glowing purple markings appeared on him.

The goo shark quickly called over Draliyo, the dragon rushing to the window just in time to watch both of them become animate once more and chase someone that they couldn't see. "Well that is quite disconcerting," the artificer stated as he watched several more stone creatures running after others. "But how is that possible? It's been less than an hour, Karksin's wards should have prevented the power from leaking out into the city for at least that long."

"Unless Karksin was the one that brought the power to the city," Shikosa stated as she saw a familiar dragon fly by, breathing a cloud of purple vapor onto the streets below that several people running by got caught in and immediately froze in place. "I should have realized that he had the potential to move around again, Renzyl turned us into living rubber creatures after all so it wouldn't be hard to assume his brother could make living statues."

"This is definitely not good then," Draliyo replied as he went back to his workbench. "With every creature that he transforms it causes the conduit between the realms to grow stronger. If we don't stop it soon then it's going to cause everything on this world to turn to stone as more fall to his corruption."

"You're right, that's not good," Shikosa said as she looked out the window once more to find that the people who had turned to statues by the breath of Karksin were starting to move once more. "Pretty soon this place is going to be nothing but them, how long until things really become a problem?"

"Oh, given the level of arcane saturation being presented..." Draliyo replied, holding up his forepaw for Shikosa to see that it was starting to harden as tan stone spread out from his fingers. "Not very long at all."

Shikosa walked down the street as fast as she could, the purple vapor that came from Karksin's maw swirling around her as she passed by several people that were frozen in place. A few minutes ago she had just left Draliyo's place, giving the statue that he had become a pat on the head before going. She wasn't sure what would happen, but since she had started to see glowing runes appear on the petrified scales of the dragon and his eyes had started to glow purple it was likely he would reanimate just like the others. It appeared that the alien nature of her body was giving some protection against the magical aura that was filling the air, especially as she passed by others that were attempting to flee and could see their arms, legs, and even their faces turning to stone while they tried to escape what was happening to them.

The other thing she noticed was that none of these living statue zombies appeared to be coming after either. More than once she had to stop and duck behind a corner when she saw a few that had been completely transform find and catch another that hadn't been changed yet. It appeared what happened after that depended on the victim; sometimes they would merely pin them down or wrap their arms around them as they turned to stone, others found themselves in a far more carnal position as they changed. For the latter it appeared that they also transformed more than the others, though one clue that this was one of the brothers of the nexus realm was as more people turned to these living statues they were all clearly males.

Finally Shikosa found Karksin in the middle of a park, the goo shark quickly finding the influence of the dragon as all the trees and plants that were in it had become petrified. It gave venturing inside an almost eerie appearance, everything completely still aside from a few creatures that were skulking about. When she got to the clearing where a large fountain had been constructed she found the dragon standing there, his hands placed on the edge of the large basin as more symbols appeared on the marble. Though the water continued to flow it was clear something was happening in order to continue the spread, but it was not going to happen as she rushed out to confront the dragon.

"Karksin!" she shouted, watching the glowing purple eyes of the creature fixate on her. "What the hell do you think you're doing?! Why would you bring the power leak into the city like this?"

"Ssssshikosssaaaa," Karksin replied, his voice hollow-sounding as the dragon slowly began to walk towards her. "Join usssss..."

"I'm not going to join your horde of living statues Karksin," Shikosa replied bluntly. "But I will join you, in fact... I was planning on it!"

The goo shark jumped forward when the stone dragon had closed the distance between the two enough that she could make her move, jumping forward and latching onto the head and neck of the dragon while taking him by surprise. Though it was a move that she had used before on Karksin it was clear that the dragon was not in his right mind, the power that he had tapped into controlling him as she began to liquidate her body and push inside. The living statue shook his head to try and dislodged the gooey creature but she had already suctioned her body to him and was oozing into his maw and throat.

While she had done this to many creature before they were mostly flesh and blood, but as her body slid into the throat of the dragon the smooth stone that he had become made it even easier. She was quickly finding a problem with penetration though; while the cavity inside Karksin was basically like the basin of the fountain he was corrupting she couldn't find a means to infiltrate the stone easily, and now that she was literally inside the source of the power that was petrifying people she could feel her own body being affected. Since she was a liquid to begin with it wasn't turning her to stone, but it felt like her body was thickening... turning more to a firm gelatin like state as she continued to push into the dragon.

That was where the device that she had inside of her came in. Though Draliyo hadn't finished the prototype he said that there would still be some effectiveness as long as she was close enough, and being inside the living statue was as close as she could get. The second she activated it she could feel the dragon start to soften, the petrification from the power coursing though his body reverting as the red goo on his head continued to pour inside of his stretched-out maw and throat. Though this was initially a rescue mission her insertion was having an unexpected side-effect, as she was able to connect with Karksin more fully he could feel that his arousal from her act.

Shikosa began to form another idea, one that needed to happen as the power of the artifact she had brought with her was already starting to wane. There was no way she could turn him back into a dragon and break the connection with the other realm, but she could break the hold that was over him that was causing him to spread it mindlessly. Using as much power as she could draw from the item she tapped into the dragon's brain, pushing her psyche onto him in order to see what was going on. She could feel her body growing more solidified by the second and as the last of her form disappeared into the dragon the living statue snapped his mouth shut and remained completely still in the park.

Meanwhile inside the mental space of the dragon Shikosa suddenly found herself standing back in the middle of the summoning chamber, the lines glowing with the same purple light as before. From what Karksin had taught her of magic it appeared the link between the portal and his body had taken over his mental realm as well as his physical body, which meant that even if she had turned him back he would have reverted... and probably very quickly. Even though she was back in her gooey state the power coming from the circle was immense, and sitting there right in the middle of it was a smooth stone creature that was the vague shape of a dragon. It was most definitely Karksin, and the amount of power that had been used to trap the powerful magic user like this must have been immense.

"Well well well," a voice said behind her, the shark turning to see a dragon standing there looking at her. Once more it had the form of Karksin, except this dragon appeared to be made of shiny black rock with the same glyphs glowing in purple around his body. "Hello Shikosa."

"Who are you?" Shikosa quickly responded, keeping her eyes locked on the creature as it gave a dark chuckle. "I know that you aren't Karksin, he would never go off and inflict this on the town."

"Are you so sure about that?" the dragon stated, once more grinning as the living statue moved around her. "To your credit you are technically correct, I am merely a manifestation of Karksin corrupted by the power given to him with the express purpose of taking over this area. While I'm sure your dragon would normally not do such a thing you would be surprised how much of what I'm doing here is... rather enticing to me."

Shikosa continued to study the creature that was standing before her, the goo shark trying to put the pieces of what happened down there in the summoning chamber. "So you're a corrupted version of Karksin that delights in what he's doing," she confirmed, the dragon nodding. "If that's true then you should be listening to me and letting everyone go, not continuing to turn everyone into these living statues. All you have to do is break free of whatever power this is and undo the summoning."

"A bit too late for that," the corrupted Karksin replied. "What you see in stone there is the part of Karksin that might have objected to what I'm doing, especially with you being here, but as long as the power and pleasure flows through it I'm more than happy to continue with the plans of Master Kirdos."

Master Kirdos... it definitely confirmed that one of the nexus creatures were behind this, but she never expected any of them to be so aggressive in their taking over of an area. That question would have to be answered later though, at the moment her focus was how to dissipate the corruption that took hold of Karksin. It was clear that he wasn't going to do it willingly, at least not in that state of mind, but perhaps if she could distract him enough it might allow the other part of him to break free and close the conduit. Since it was confirmed that one of the nexus creatures was involved she knew of one way that she could do that, a grin forming on her face that caused the corrupted dragon to even pause.

"Well... if that's the case..." Shikosa replied with a toothy smile as she walked forward, taking the corrupted Karksin by surprise. "I think it's only fitting that I do join you, and that you take care of me personally. You think you can do that big boy?"

It was clear that some aspects of Karksin's personality were definitely present as she watched the dragon swallow hard, then nod his head eagerly. Lust and desire were the modius operandi for these creatures, which meant that she was going to fight fire with fire as well as take advantage of her intimate knowledge of the dragon. The dark, corruptive tone that this Karksin had evaporated as she pressed against him and let her body stretch over his, tickling over the spots that she knew drove the dragon wild. As she manuvered the dragon onto his back she heard a loud crack and glanced to the featureless dragon statue to see that a small fissure had formed on the chest of it.

"Didn't think that someone such as yourself would want to be a living statue," the corrupted Karksin stated as the obsidian creature wiggled on his back, his wings propping him so that he could remain partially upright while watching the goo shark reform around his thighs.

"You underestimate me," Shikosa said with a smirk. "But I'll let it go this time since you're not really yourself. Now just relax and let me take control, you know you love it."

The dragon let out a moan as she began to play with the cock between his legs, seeing that becoming a statue had lengthened it considerably. It wasn't something she was worried about, instead she was thinking on how to pull everything off that she was thinking of doing. Several more cracks had appeared in the stone encasing the dragon and she knew that her technique was working, all she had to do was what came naturally as she pressed his ridged obsidian member against her pussy. Being made of goo meant for easy insertions and with the power of the nexus still growing she had to work quickly, letting out a groan as her flat stomach stretched out from the cock that could still be seen inside of her. It had almost reached up to her breasts and in order to continue to distract the dragon she lowered herself even further and pressed her boobs together to provide even more pressure on the tip.

As the corrupted Karksin writhed beneath him in pure ecstasy he failed to notice that the sharks' legs had liquified completely, completely coating over the limbs of the dragon that were straight up in the air while her tail did the same. While she absorbed the power that was coming from the corrupted form it was containing it, which seemed to allow the trapped part of him to attempt to escape. That didn't mean that she couldn't have fun with him too, she thought to herself as she formed a goo tentacle to spread open the dragon's tailhole while she took the actual appendage as her own. It appeared the corrupted creature continued to dismiss anything strange that was happening, even as Shikosa sank down further until the tip of his cock was completely encased in her tongue while she gave it a reverse blowjob.

It wasn't until the darkening goo spread over his chest did the corrupted dragon realize that Shikosa had totally taken over his lower body, watching the features of the shark completely disappear and leave his cock completely coated in red goo that was starting to turn black. Noting that this Karksin knew what was happening she reformed her head with a smirk on her face. "Looks like you should have done a little more homework on your host," the shark said. "Oh well, doesn't matter anymore, you're mine now!"

Before the corrupted Karksin could react he suddenly found his muzzle full of goo, the shark girl continuing to caress the body she was stretching over as she completely encased his face in one swift action. Once more the smooth, almost polished scales of the dragon made it easy for her to engulf, but as the goo sucked into the open maw and she continued to envelope him the corruption that she was also absorbing suddenly hit her like a freight train. Whatever was manipulating Karksin was worming its way into her psyche as well and she suddenly felt a hunger that had not been a part of her for some time, feeling an almost insatiable need to spread as her oozing body began to solidify over the dragon she had taken over. Yes... her mind hissed as the last of the obsidian scales were covered, her hardening body looking like cooled lava as she found herself starting to move, she could make so many others like her... like them...

As Shikosa tried to push back the corruption that was infiltrating her mind now she managed to notice the statue in the center of the circle as the stone shattered, revealing the flesh and blood brown-scaled dragon contained within. Karksin gasped for breath as control of his consciousness was transferred back to him fully, the power that had been infesting him completely contained within the lava dragon-shark that was still pleasuring itself while it wrestled for control. "Shikosa!" the dragon shouted, pulling himself out of what was left of his prison before running over to her in her merged state. "I'm coming to help!"

"That... will not be necessary," a voice said that echoed around them, Shikosa suddenly finding the instincts that had been stoking her need to spread and convert others evaporating from her mind as the dragon inside her disappeared. "I apologize for not intervening sooner but I will admit I was quite curious to see how that would play out. You both are quite powerful, it explains a lot of what has been happening."

As Karksin helped Shikosa onto her feet, the goo shark rematerializing back to her normal body after the thing that had altered it so extensively was gone, the two saw a figure walking towards them. When it got close enough they saw that it was a creature made out of obsidian just like the corrupted Karksin had been, the feline having a mixture of leopard and tiger features on his body as he looked at them with glowing white eyes. "You must be Kirdos I presume," Shikosa stated, the creature nodding his head as he smirked slightly. "Why did you do all this?"

"It was a comedy of errors I'm afraid," Kirdos replied as he clapped his hands, the three of them suddenly standing in the park that the corrupted version of Karksin had been making into a hub for his power. "I was off-realm when you had decided to send out your signal, one that was picked up by my second-in-command who tends to monitor such things. When he saw that it had a strong lean towards Athear he perceived it as an attack and used a rather devious ability of his in order to... manipulate certain desires of your dragon friend there while keeping others at bay."

"That certainly is very devious," Karksin stated. "So he thought that Athear was making a move on your realm, so he turned me into a living statue bent on doing the same to everyone else here?"

"Athear and I are... rivals," Kirdos replied as he gestured for the two of them to have a seat, the goo shark finding that she and the obsidian hybrid had chairs that materialized. "Our realms are polar opposites of one another so we get a little leery when we sense something of his that's trying to interact with us. It's also why our lovely goo shark here wasn't as affected by the power, and though eventually you would have likely been turned like everyone else I had come back and stepped in after seeing what was happening a little clearer than my compatriot."

As Shikosa continued to nod she looked around and noticed that everyone around them was still a statue but frozen in place, chuckling slightly to herself when she noticed that some had been caught in rather compromising situations. "So you can reverse all this, right?" the goo shark asked once the nexus creature had finished with his explanation of what had happened. "It's going to be hard to get supplies in town if everyone is a statue."

"Don't worry about that," Kirdos replied, glancing around as well at the petrified state of things. "Though I have to say this gives me an idea for a new exhibition, a city frozen in time or something of that nature. But since this town wasn't exactly expecting such a thing and that most of the people here were turned to stone for the express purpose of taking the place over I wouldn't get much out of here anyway, and considering you know about me and my kin I'm guessing that any offer I give to you will be met with a decline."

"I'm afraid you are right," Shikosa stated. "The only reason I'm looking for Athear is because he controls the realm of goo and I have a few questions for him. I don't suppose that you could possibly get in contact with him to get here?"

"I'm sure you already know the answer to that as well," Kirdos answered. "While I would love to help with that I would be the last brother to turn to when it comes to such a thing. Who else have you tried to send this request to?"

"So far the only other brother we summoned was Renzyl," Karksin stated.

"Ah, that would explain why I wasn't informed," Kirdos said as he rolled his eyes. "If he promised to let Athear know though he would have done so, their realms overlap a bit so they're more in contact with anyone else. Now, since I was unable to help you out and I do wish to repay you for the inconvenience that I've caused I would like to do something for you before we sever the connection to my realm. It's a bit on the strange side, but after seeing how you two operate I'm sure that you're going to enjoy it."

The two looked at one another in question but almost immediately the pleasure they were feeling spiked as the scales of the dragon began to harden once more. Unlike the last time though not only did Karksin feel completely in control of himself still but it was also a different energy that flowed through his body. The eyes of the nexus creature glowed with a brilliant light as his entire body started to darken until it turned a glossy uniform black in nature, though the texture of his body remained as he once more looked like living stone. It reminded Shikosa a bit of when they were rubber creatures, though it had a far more solid appearance and looked more like the same stone that Kirdos was made out of.

"I know this stone," Karksin said as he wiggled his forepaws in front of his face. "It's obsidian."

"Very good," Kirdos stated while gesturing to himself. "As you can see I'm quite fond of it myself, and for the purposes of what I have in mind it's going to look very well. But we're going to need a second component before we can truly see the extent of my work, and that is where you come in my dear."

Shikosa just smirked and crossed her arms in front of her chest, waiting to see what the creature had in store for her. With the threat of turning the entire town, and possibly the world, into stone having passed and the summoning already a failure the least she could do was enjoy herself while indulging in what this hybrid wanted to do with them. If Renzyl was any indicator they both knew it would be good, especially as she looked over at the obsidian dragon and saw that his cock was once more fully erect and jutting out from his hind legs. It was part of the arousal that she was feeling since she was inside of him in the real world, though at the moment her focus was on her mental self as her hands suddenly started to feel warm and tingly.

When she uncrossed her arms and looked at them Shikosa gasped slightly as the red goo of her hands had started to turn a bright orange that was quickly spreading through her. When she pressed her fingers together they were still extremely flexible, and when she clapped her hands together both she and Karksin were surprised when sparks flew out of them. "Wait, I get it," the goo shark said as she cupped her breasts with them, a grin forming on her muzzle as the pleasure spread to them along with the glowing orange. "Amazing... you're turning me into a lava shark?"

"Very astute," Kirdos replied before looking around. "I think it's time for us to leave this place though and return to the real world, I'm very curious to see what happens with one of you inside the other. We'll meet again once you are finished."

When both Karksin and Shikosa blinked they found themselves back in the realm of the material, Karksin looking around to see that the town was not only still petrified but still standing completely still. It appeared that they would be having a private showing of their new forms, at least for the moment as the dragon began to feel something warming up inside of his belly. When he looked down at his obsidian form he began to see something appearing in his scales that at first he thought were the runes that had caused this whole problem in the first place. As the symbols on his chest and stomach began to glow with an orange light he realized that they were more stylized then the ones that he used for his summoning and that the reason they were becoming so luminescent was not because of his magic...

Meanwhile inside the dragon the goo shark found that her body was still changing like it had been before, and with the red turning to glowing orange magma she could actually see herself inside the stone stomach of her companion. As she held up one of her glowing hands however it appeared that most of Karksin was truly like a statue complete with most of his inner body a cavity that she resided inside. When she pressed a hand against the smooth obsidian wall that surrounded her everything shook and with her connection she could tell the dragon enjoyed it. As she was about to do it more however she noticed that despite the lava she was becoming being thicker then her usual gooey body it was harder for her to maintain her form, watching her fingers meld together before melting back into her arm.

From the growing pool of lava that was surrounding her however Shikosa found herself able to form something else from her body, a tentacle of lava rising up from the pool that her legs had been assimilated into. It was quickly becoming apparent what her role was in the mind of Kirdos, especially as her arms merged with her torso and despite Karksin being bigger than her she was rapidly filling his legs with her own body. Experimentally she wiggled one of the dragon's toes and could sense his surprise when it responded, and when she took a tentacle and pushed it into the large tail it caused him to nearly jump. This was definitely going to be fun, the shark thought to herself as her smiling muzzle deformed before joining the rest of her body in the growing pool of lava inside the dragon.

Karksin let out a small moan as he felt the lava shark manipulating him, watching the glow of the lines and runes on his body ebb and flow with the movement inside of his body. Not only was each shift of the substance within him causing pleasure to radiate through his form but the longer Shikosa was inside him the more control she seemed to get over him. There was a loud crack and Karksin craned his neck back to see that his tail was growing longer, lava pushing out from the tip where it was flowing. It whipped around for a few seconds before it went where Shikosa had guided it, which was right inside of his tailhole.

The dragon let out a roar of pleasure as the lava shark quickly reformed into something more phallic in nature as it spread open his surprisingly flexible hole, which in turn pushed back into the mass of lava inside him. Though Shikosa technically didn't have a pussy she was able to form something around the tailhole of the dragon so that the penetration got them both, causing the obsidian dragon to roll onto his back and kick his paws into the air. The lava shark wasn't done with him yet though; the growls and grunts of the dragon were quickly muffled as the scales on his neck glowed increasingly bright leading up to his head. Karksin's head tilted back as another lava tentacle pushed its way out, mingling with his own obsidian tongue as it took control of the movement of his neck and skull.

As the two creatures continued to pleasure one another with their tail in their tailhole Karksin felt his neck get angled up, the tentacle waving lazily in the air moving him so that he was staring face to face with his own crotch. His draconic dick was glowing more intensely then any other part of him and it was clear from the blissful sensations coming from it that Shikosa was manipulating it from the inside. That wasn't enough for the shark though and the dragon suddenly felt the tentacle in his maw move forward, taking the rest of his maw with it as it wrapped around the thickening member. The cascade of warm, tingling pleasure was almost overwhelming as the lava shark inside of him coiled around the ridged obsidian member a few times before using it as an anchor to pull him even closer.

Soon the eyes of the obsidian dragon glowed with an orange light as his fingers and toes began to stretch and wiggle of their own accord while Karksin found himself bobbing up and down on his own cock. Shikosa made it clear who was in control, feeling the sheer euphoria that came from the possessed dragon as more of his body turned orange. Though it was hard for the lava shark to see herself she managed to branch off a tentacle from the wings of the dragon and saw what looked like a possessed obsidian dragon statue sucking himself off while also penetrating himself. It wasn't long however before the feelings were causing her to lose concentration herself, the two eventually rutting themselves until both creatures came to orgasm.

With their own cock lodged firmly in their maw their lava cum merely rejoined the mass that was wrapped around it, their body bucking from the sheer overwhelming sensations as their tail pulled out as well. For a few seconds neither creature was in control, the two merely feeling like a lava dragon instead of the lava shark and obsidian dragon that they had been before. That feeling didn't last too long however and eventually Shikosa flowed out of Karksin completely, finding herself able to reform into her old form with heat radiating from her body. As the shark began to experiment with adjusting parts of her body they saw the familiar face of Kirdos walking up to them.

"That was pretty nice if I do say so myself," Kirdos stated. "I'm going to have to remember this combination for my realm, since as we mentioned before I'm sure you will not be coming to join me."

"Sorry again for you making the trip for nothing," Karksin apologized. "Now, about the town..."

"Oh, the town will revert to normal in a few hours once the energy of my realm completely wears off after severing the connection," Kirdos explained. "The same thing will happen to your bodies too, so enjoy them while you have them. Also my dear Shikosa you'll be pleased to know that Karksin is not the only body you can possess, if you want you can turn others into creatures similar to your dragon companion or even play the corrupter and turn them into monsters if you want. Either way once the magic runs out everything will return back to normal and no one will remember this... unless you decide to play with them, so make sure that you use the powers of perception I gave you so that the experience is pleasant all around."

"We will Kirdos," Karksin stated. "It was a pleasure meeting you, even if you weren't the one that we wanted to meet."

The obsidian leopard-tiger nodded and suddenly disappeared, and the two could instantly start to feel the power that had changed their bodies begin to decay. They only had a few hours for their fun, and as they looked out to the frozen people around them they saw a few light up with their new sight. "Wait, I know just the person we can visit," the shark stated as she began to flow back inside the dragon, leaving her smirking head facing the maw she was filling. "We do have to thank your friend after all for helping us out..."
