#5 of Killing Emotions


_*Pant pant* Hey! Phil here...sorry for the long wait...*Pant* Time's been trying to kill me...once I got involved in Gareth's life, I just--look. I'm on the run. Telrick's out to kill ME now, and he's not the worst of the problems anymore. I'm only able to do this because Gareth now wants his story out there, and he gave me a special device that records what I say and puts in into documents for me to upload later.

...

...

...It's been an hour since I last spoke. I mean what I said about being on the run. Right now I've reached one of the few safe spots there are for me. Telrick'll have to search for at least a few days to find me, now. I plan to be long gone before he starts to get close, though. So...I'm resting for the day, now. Where to begin...well, in the span of time that you haven't seen me post anything, I've MET Telrick. And he even had me as his captive for a short while. He learned about the story I was doing for Gareth, and the ONLY reason I'm alive now is because I agreed to do a story for him. Gareth came and got me back, and I've more or less been on the run ever since. But yeah...it seems that Gareth isn't the one meant to kill Telrick. There's a kid I have to find who can do that. Which is why Telrick's chasing ME. Hell, would you want to die? I know WHY he's chasing me, I just don't want to get killed, myself. In the span of time that's gone by, Hana's back to who she's meant to be, but the price for that changed her and Gareth. Gareth's powers have changed only slightly, so you won't see a difference in him for quite a while, but when Hana changes back to herself in the story I still haven't finished, she'll get her own set of powers to match Gareth's. There's more. The price they paid didn't just change their powers--in Hana's case, GIVE her powers--it also brought two new killers into the mix. And these two are, without a doubt, their two worst enemies. The names of these two killers are Ha'an and Ghoreaeth.

...tell me, do the names sound familiar at all? Hana and Gareth, and Ha'an and Ghoreaeth? Think about it for a second...

...

...

...that's right. They're the same people. Ghoreaeth and Ha'an are Gareth and Hana, but from a different reality. The Gareth and Hana we already know are wonderful people, and have powers and personalities that reflect that. Ghoreaeth and Ha'an have similar powers, but other than that, they may as well be Gareth and Hana's exact opposites.

!!!

Shit. Gotta keep moving. Telrick's starting to get wise to the hiding places. I haven't slept for four days, now. Always just running...trying to find this kid. Hedak, or something like that. He's supposed to be Telrick's kid or something...Gareth gave me the description before we parted. I'm looking for a kid who's nineteen, but less than four feet tall. Basically, he still looks like he's four years old. I know that four feet tall is TALL for a kid that age, but trust me, if he'd grown to his full size, it would look natural. He's not a runt--his body just was robbed of the things it needs to develop. Telrick had an early start on the kid, so the boy is afraid of everything and everyone, has a few scars he doesn't care to talk about, and his blue scales are faded of color, kind of like he's not all there--like he'll blink out at any second if you look away.

...

...

...

Sorry for the wait. I had to run. There's a spot I'm heading toward that I SHOULD be able to stay in even if Telrick gets close. So far, everything I've been in has been temporary little hideaways. The place I'm headed is more like that hospital building the whole story had been going on in. Smaller, but the same basic ideas for protection. The difference is that Gareth's safeguarded this one from everything he could possibly think of--AFTER that bit where Telrick took his body. So, even if Telrick were to do that, it wouldn't work. Right now I'm in another temporary shelter. Don't know how long I'll be able to stay in this one...depends on how much time Telrick spends searching the old one. I'll see what I can get out for more of the story while we wait. There's a lot that happened after that--after I got caught up in it and everything else. Heh. Wait till you see just what happened to me.

...well, I suppose that since I'm writing, you can't really SEE what happened, so I guess I'll have to tell you, eh? All in good time. I've stalled this story long enough, and you're all probably wondering what the heck happened in the last part of the story...or you're not, and I'm just rambling on. Either way, here's the next part._

Kalia finished with the string and scrambled back down, eager to be off the flimsy branches. She dropped the last few feet to the ground and edged toward Hana, who was staring at something far off. What exactly it was, Kalia wasn't sure, but it held Hana's full attention.

'...Um...you okay?" She tapped Hana's shoulder, hoping for some kind of response.

And she got one hell of one.

Hana turned to her, eyes suddenly blazing with that light that had only been a glow before. She...she looked in..pain. Reaching out, Hana whimpered, falling just short of touching Kalia, who, confused and frightened, caught her before she could hit the ground, "HEY! You alright? Hana, what's wrong?"

She shuddered, the blaze in her eyes fading back to a softer glow, "I...crave...I--I need...I need food..."

Kalia helped her sit and went into the cave, looking for this stockpile of food Hana had been talking about. She emerged with a couple small cans of condensed soup, a pot for boiling water, and dumped a bunch of sticks into the makeshift fireplace before breathing fire into it and setting the pot on top, dumping the contents of both cans into it. It didn't help that Hana seemed to be staring at HER instead of the food, "Um..."

Hana blinked and looked away, "I'm sorry...I..." she started to blush, "I shouldn't have been staring. You...You have a... a very attractive...body...I can remember when I would have killed for something like that...not literally, but you know what I mean."

Kalia didn't know whether to blush or to scowl, so, she settled for a topic she hoped would distract both of them, "Um...you--you're Gareth's wife...right?" Hana nodded, "Do you mind me asking about all those pictures of you? Both halves?"

Hana sighed, "Only a few minutes ago, I wouldn't have been able to speak--Gareth didn't know what was wrong with me--how to heal me. It's slowly been wearing down by itself, ending at its own pace since I was never fully changed. But...all that time, I could still sense everything that was going on around me. Gareth set up those two halves--the nicer one to remember who I was, and the other one to remember why he was doing what he was doing. He's very devoted...I just never realized how much until everything with Telrick started..."

"Can I ask what exactly happened? I--I get the gist--from the pictures. Telrick raped you..."

"Yes he did...but he did more than that. Before he took me...he...he killed our children. We had six children. Six...all dead by his hand. And he forced us to watch each death as it happened. I...I..." She trailed off for a moment, a tear finding its way out of her eye...a loud sniff got her back to herself enough to say, "I don't want to talk about that. When he took me away, he hid inside a cave that I don't think was even connected to the planet. We went somewhere else that defied all logic to my mind, and it was there that he started. It hurt so much... He was trying to fit as much of himself into me as he could, so he was at least twice my size when he raped me...probably more. When...when he was about to finish, he pulled out and grew to his full size, and the semen literally poured all over me, and that was just one DROP from him. By the end of it, he used magic to slightly harden the outside, so, struggling just to BREATHE inside the thing was made harder when I hit the wall and couldn't break through. I remember passing out from lack of air, and then blackness--and a sudden gush of cold air when Gareth pulled me out...but by then I must have swallowed enough of the stuff to equal my own weight. I didn't...I don't know how to explain it, but even though I know it went into my stomach, it's like it was never there, like my body absorbed it all as it came. I had gained no weight, I was HUNGRY, and my stomach wasn't bulging at all. But by that time I couldn't move, or speak. I could only stay as I was, staring away...thoughts of all kinds ran through my head...strange thoughts that I'd never had before. I felt hunger...but it was not a hunger for food..." Hana looked up at Kalia again, "I hungered for...for...for sex." She winced as she said that last part, ashamed of herself, "I don't know why, but it was practically the only thing on my mind. I needed more. Always more. And I couldn't get it. I had no way of telling anyone what my body screamed I needed. And...looking at you...I need it again...it's not FOOD I need...it's...you..."

Kalia leaned back at that, ready to jump up and run away if Hana so much as moved. Hana sighed, looking into the flames, "It's wrong of me to think that way. After everything Gareth's done for me...I feel no regret at this NEED to break a promise he's held dear to his heart for as long as I can remember...I...I don't know what it is. I look at you, and see your body, feel a need to hold you close to me--an overwhelming desire for us to intimately touch. Each time I push my mind away from it, the feeling returns, but stronger. It's like I'm in heat, but with a fire that burns hotter than the fiercest volcano. I'm sorry..." She got up from the log she'd been sitting on, heading for the cave. But halfway there, her eyes blazed again, and she fell to the ground in a heap. Kalia kept her distance this time, settling for just watching to see what would happen. Hana eventually picked herself back up and kept toward the cave, but Kalia could see her crying...

With a shudder, Kalia decided to lay down near the fire instead, and kept it between her and the cave. It wasn't long until nightfall came upon them, and even through her worry, sleep claimed her.

"Huhhh!!!!!" Kalia woke to someone's thin tongue taking long, tender strokes over her clit. She lifted her head to see what was going on, and saw Hana's butt hole and own vagina staring straight at her. She tried to move, but some invisible force held her arms down to the ground while Hana had her fun. Kalia mewled weakly as Hana's tongue slid over her again, this time slipping in and out of her, causing unwanted sensations to ripple along her body. It...it felt good. It wasn't supposed to, but it did! Another lick only strengthened the feelings, and Kalia started to cry. when the wave passed enough for her to feel able to speak, she asked, "Why? Why are you doing this? This--I didn't want this! This is rape! Just like what Telrick did to you, or all those men Gareth rescued me from did to ME! Please stop! PLEASE!!!!!"

Hana did stop, but it was only to twist her head to look at Kalia, and the glow in Hana's eyes was so strong it blocked out most of her face. Kalia thought she could see something of a smile there, but with the light right where it was, she couldn't be sure, "Stop...please stop!"

Her shout made Hana pause, and this time, Hana began to shift around, turning until they could see each other face to face. One of Hana's hands slid down to push into Kalia instead, while Hana gave a throaty chuckle and placed her mouth over Kalia's left nipple. She did not start to suck, but rather slid her tongue around the hardening piece of flesh, enticing it to harden faster. The ploy worked, going against everything Kalia wanted. Her body betrayed her and began to enjoy Hana's ministrations on a more intense level, rushing the blood into Kalia's cheeks, even going so far as to try to hump Hana's fingers that still gently moved within her. Kalia hated to admit what her own body was shouting at her, but she could do nothing to stop it, and so only wept while Hana continued. A soft moan escaped her, "No..." She managed to whisper, "No...I...I don't want it. I don't. Please stop. Please...please stop...don't do this to mmmm..." The last part had been a half moan, half muffled whisper. Hana's face entered Kalia's field of vision, and Hana bent down, putting her lips on the dragoness beneath her, forcing their mouths to lock into that tender embrace. Kalia tried to fight it away by thrashing her head back and forth, but soon whatever held her arms and legs came to hold her head still.

Hana let go of the kiss with a smile, "Just relax. I'll be done soon. I can't explain it, but...doing this...I'm not hungry anymore. It--It helps. Just relax and let me continue, and I'll end soon enough. I'm almost full."

"I don't want this..."

Hana chuckled, "But your body DOES."

"But I DON'T! LET ME GO! SOMEONE HELP!!!!!! SOMEBODY HELP ME!!!!!!!" She screamed out, starting to get desperate.

Strangely enough, someone heard her cry. Gareth was able to move much faster without a body, and had traversed most of the distance in the span of a few seconds, much like the spell Hana and Kalia had used to escape. He'd been searching for the string to signal where the two of them were, but the scream, unfortunately, worked just as well. Gareth went in that direction and found...

...Hana? What in the world..."HANA! HANA, STOP!!!!"

Hana actually stopped and looked up, RIGHT at him. The glow in her eyes had nearly vanished, but the moment she saw Gareth, it sprang back with an intensity that surprised even her. She groaned and slid off of Kalia, eyes fixed on Gareth's ethereal form, "I...I crave...s...so much...wh...why? I--I don't understand. It--it was working. I was feeling better. Better than I had in years...and now...now I look at HIM, and...and I yearn..." She looked back to Kalia, frowned, and reached for her. Her hand trembled and stopped just above Kalia's heart, but kept going. When it touched flesh, Hana gasped, and spoke a word not even she knew the meaning of, but the word of power let her reach farther in ward, and it felt something...something stronger. with a tug, Hana pulled up, and a small red and white string, charred in some slight places, came out with her hand. Kalia's body was still intact, but she writhed like crazy, afraid of everything around her for some reason and feeling insignificantly small. An odd sensation overcame Hana, and she popped the odd string into her mouth, sucked on it for a moment, then swallowed. It tasted DIVINE. She started to reach toward Kalia again, wondering if she might find more, but Kalia had stopped screaming. Her mouth was still wide open in that scream, but all was silent. Her eyes bulged, a large shudder wracked her body, and then she went limp.

Hana frowned..."Kalia?" She gave Kalia a gentle shake, but the female gave to reaction. Hana placed her head on Kalia's chest and gasped, flying away from the dead body of the girl she had forced into making love with..."D...dead? How? What...happened? I--I didn't...Gareth? Gareth, what did I do? I didn't hurt her! I promise I didn't! I...I..." Hana started sobbing, and rushed for the cave. Gareth floated down the body and sent his mind into it, but found nothing. Kalia truly was dead...

...wait. What the--

Gareth wanted to gasp, but could not, in the form he held. But he tried again, and found he could fit himself into the girl's body, as he had done when trying to regain control of his own. the difference was that this time, no one fought him out, and he was soon solidly within the body of the dead girl, sitting up and looking his/her hands over in absolute confusion..."I'm...alive?"
