Chapter 1- Camnator's trek.

Camnator slowly awoke from his slumber. The first thing he noticed was the stench: a mixture of rotting food, vomit, and other foul odors. He also couldn't see anything. For a second, he thought he had a blanket over his head but when he moved, he felt a sharp pain pierce his right hand. "shit!" he uttered in the darkness, as something cut him. It felt like a razor or a piece of sharp glass slicing into his palm. Camnator jumped up and hit his head on a hard surface with a loud "thwump!", and almost knocked himself unconscious again. He uttered another profanity and massaged his throbbing head as tears rolled down his cheeks in the darkness.

     When the pain subsided, he noticed a crack of light a few above him on the wall. He reached for it and felt along the wall and realized that the light was coming through a sliding metal door. Camnator realized he was in a dumpster. He had no memory of how he got there, but it wasn't the first time he woke in a place of no recollection. Camnator slid the door open and was temporarily blinded by the light. He let his eyes adjust, he climbed out of the dumpster. He looked around ans saw he was in an alleyway. He had no idea where he was, so he got out his phone and turned it on. The GPS told him he was in Seattle, Washington.
 
   "Seattle....what the..." Camnator began to say, but then it started coming back to him. "OH SHIT!" he exclaimed. He remembered that he was attending the Penny Arcade Expo. He is supposed to meet up with some other bungie.net members. Camnator checked his text messages and saw a text from Vien that said "Where are you? We have been waiting for 45 minutes. There are children around here, Verbatim will be ill if we do not move soon." It was sent 20 minutes ago.
 
      Camnator texted "Sorry, I got lost. I'll be there soon. My head is foggy, I didn't smoke enough weed last night."  He put his phone in his pocket and checked inside the dumpster for his backpack and took it out. After brushing off a scraps of food and a dead rat, he opened his back pack and took out a blunt. Camnator lit up and took a puff. His head immediately began to clear. A path began to illuminate itself in front of him, almost like the paths you found in fables 2 and three. He began to follow the path towards
his destination. The sounds of the traffic began to transform into something else. Instead of the harsh chugging of engines, there were drums. Instead of car horns and people swearing, there was singing. The world began to morph into a world of 80's rock. Even the birds were singing in the trees, like a scene you'd find in a disney film.

      Camnator saw the world for what it was, and what it was, is beautiful. He saw auras emanating from every life form. He listened to the squirrels as he walked, chatting about politics. He picked one up and pet it, then let it crawled up his shoulder, give him a kiss on the cheek, and scurry along it's way. The flowers on the sidewalk waved to him as he passed. Everything was connected, everything made sense. His head was clear, the world is heaven...yet he knew the government wanted to destroy it. The thought made him sad, and diamond tears rolled down his cheeks, turned into corn, and scurried into the sidewalk cracks.

       After 30 minutes, Camnator began to suspect that he had been walking in circles inside of the park. He vaguely knew he was very very late to the meeting place, but his head wasn't clear enough. He needed to clear it even more. So he found a table and got out his packed lunch: a BWT sandwich: Brocolli, weed, and tomato. He quickly munched the sandwich and downed it with a thermos full of juiced weed. The glowing path grew brighter and he continued to follow it. The path lead him to a glowing gold car. He driver asked him "where would you like to go?" Camnator giggled and said "To the Penny arcade expo. Do you know where that is?" The driver nodded and started to drive.

A few minutes went by, but the driver started asking questions, trying to strike up a conversation. But Camnator was too busy pondering the meaning of the universe, so he mumbled "You've gone incoherent." The driver looked puzzled, but continued to drive in silence. Soon the driver stopped and told Camnator the price. Camnator took out his wallet and dumped a wad of cash and some zig zags into the driver's hand. He got out of the car and picked up the glowing trail again. That's all he could focus on, the yellow trail. The rest of the world was blurry, but the trail was as clear as anything. RIght now, it was the meaning of the universe. Soon, he saw 2 shapes at the end of the trail, a tall deformed giant, and a vicious looking teenager, vomiting into a garbage can. He had found Vien and Verbatim.

Chapter 2: Vien's great Journey begins

7 hours earlier....in an unnamed location.....a sleeping sanghieli gets a rude awakening.
The morning started off with a loud obnoxious beeping, followed quickly by a crunch. Vien Quitonm had recently tried using the devices humans invented to awake themselves from slumber, an alarm clock. He discovered very quickly that he and alarm clocks did not have a very compatible relationship. Indeed, Vien had just smashed the 7th alarm clock this week. Once he realized what he did, Vien grumbled quietly and pushed the wrecked alarm clock off the bedside desk and into the trash can to join the rest of it's deceased brethren.

Fuming, Vien laid his head back into the pillow. It was then that he became aware of the arms that were wrapped around his chest. Maluki the dragon was clinging to him, still asleep, ears twitching. Wondering how his dragon could sleep through that racket, Vien stroked Maluki's soft mane. But then he remembered that he had to get up and get ready to pack up and start driving. Today was the day that he was going to attend one of these human conventions, to meet the other members of the bungie.net community.

It was rather ironic that everybody thought he was a human, who role-played as a sanghieli. But in fact, he was a sanghieli, role playing as a human who role played as a sanghieli. They had no idea that the halo series bungie created, was actually based on the experiences he went through. He remembered too vividly when he arrived on Earth. Or to be more accurate, arrived in this universe, this timeline. Vien remembered that a forerunner artifact caused some sort of inter-dimensional warp, that it somehow it sent him to this universe, where the covenant either didn't exist, or they simple haven't met humanity yet. Since his discovery by the government, he influenced technology and various media just like Paul the alien did in the movie "Paul". But he escaped and now the government doesn't know he exists anymore, because of another incident with an artifact that he'd brought with him.

Vien delicately tried to unwrap Maluki's arms from around his chest without waking him. But Maluki only held tighter, a grin forming across his snout. "Were you going to leave without saying goodbye?" he said, opening his vibrant pink eyes and grinning at Vien. "I would never leave you without saying goodbye. I just didn't want to wake you so early." Vien stroked his mane again and said "I would never leave without saying goodbye. I just wanted you to sleep in some more." Vien  got up with the dragon still clinging to him. "You know, you can be quite clingy in the morning. I cannot prepare myself if you keep hugging me like that." Vien said. Maluki smirked back at him in the reflection of the mirror on the wall and retorted "And you can be a pain in the ass sometimes at night." 

But Maluki let go of the now-blushing sangheili and dropped to the floor. Vien gazed in the mirror at the reflection of himself, standing there wearing a pink thong. Then he shook himself awake. Vien strolled over to the closet and opened it, revealing several sets of latex suits, whips, and a suit of armor. But what he retrieved was a cardboard box. He opened it and took out a set of rather large human clothes, and a belt with a round green button on it.

      Vien packed his bags, ate 10 fish for breakfast, then got prepared to leave. But then he felt Maluki's hand on his shoulder and turned around. Immediately the dragon pressed his snout into Vien's mandibles and kissed his mouth. Vien scooped the dragon in his arms and clacked his mandibles against Maluki's cheeks affectionately. His hands rubbed up and down the dragon's back, until he touched a place that drew a moan from the cute creature.

Vien decided he didn't have to leave just yet, he had time. So he took Maluki to the bedroom and set him on the bed. He rolled the dragon onto his belly and came up behind him. The next few minutes were filled with Maluki's moans, and pleads for Vien to push harder. "Oh...yes....right there, push the knot.....OHHHH!!!!" Maluki said.
"You are so tight this morning, love." Vien said, as he pushed into Maluki. Yes, morning back massages are one of Vien's favorite ways to start out the day. His dragon got so many knots in his back, probably from the way he kept sleeping on his wings. Vien pushed his fingers into a particarly stubborn knot, until it gave way, causing the dragon to emit a sigh of relief, after which he began to purr. Vien smiled, it wasn't until he met Maluki that he thought only cats purred. After kissing Maluki again and telling him to keep the house together, he pressed the button on his belt. Static started emanating from the button he had pressed. Vien's image began to distort. Starting from the feet up, his image was being replaced by a holographic representation of a rather deformed human with something they called gigantism. The image traveled up his body, revealing more of the human form, until finally his face was covered. Gigantism was a rather convenient explanation for his height and his unusual gait. Nobody ever suspected that he was actually an alien.  He headed out.

   Vien never liked driving cars, but he had no choice. He couldn't fly because the airport security would surely detect his equipment. So he was forced to use the crude human means of commuting. Indeed, he could barely fit inside of cars, even with his disguise. So he purchased a motorcycle, which he secretly enhanced with a bit of covenant technology. He through his bags in the storage compartment, started his motorcycle, clumsily input his destination on the GPS locator and went on his way.

Vien didn't have a driver's license, but he knew how to drive from watching humans. The blinking lights on the cars meant they are about to change lanes or turn in that direction. The red lights mean they are applying the breaks. The traffic lights have 3 colors: red means stop, green means go, and yellow means speed up. He never got pulled over, but he learned that it is a good idea to always have a stash of donuts, a human confectionery nearby just in case. He drived and drived for hours, wondering how he was going to react, seeing so many people, wondering how they were going to react, seeing his stature. Well, the stature of his hologram anyway.

Vien arrived in Seattle 5 hours later, found a hotel and rented a room. It felt rather empty. He wished Maluki had come with him, but the dragon is dreadfully shy in his human form and the holograph belts don't work as well on him. Often, his tail would poke through the hologram, creating the illusion that he was defecating a tail. Suddenly, Vien's phone emitted a loud moan, causing him to flinch. Maluki must have changed his text ringtone to a custom voice recording again. The dragon pulled these kinds of pranks all the time, in hopes of embarassing Vien in a public setting, which often happened.

Vien checked his messages, he received a text from Verbatim: "Let me know when you get to the hotel. Btw, if you haven't settled in already, do you want to switch rooms? There is a family next door with kids. Their laughter makes me want to choke a kitten."

Vien replied: "I just arrived and sure. There are no human offspring near my room"

Verbatim: "ok thanks and you don't need to act like an elite dude. That's not even funny on bnet"

Vien: "Lol...yeah. Sorry. There are no kids here. I'm in room 777."

Vien waited for a few minutes, wondering what kind of human verbatim is in real life. He wondered if verbatim is as angry in person as he often is on bungie.net. Then there was a loud knock on the door....

Chapter 3: Verbatim's nightmare

Verbatim's Journal April 11, 2015 Used diaper in alley this morning. Diarrhea in burst lining. These kids are afraid of me. I have seen their true face. The streets are extended gutters and the gutters are full of piss and when the drains finally crust over all the children will drown. The accumulated filth of all their feces and tears will foam up about their waists and and all the boys and girls will look up and shout "save us!"... and I'll whisper... "No."[/i]

Verbatim was in the middle of writing his journal when he heard a dreadful sound coming from the next room over. It made the hairs on his neck raise on end. It was laughter, children's laughter. Verbatim hated children, he hated them more than anything in the world. Everything about them drove him crazy, the way they laughed, the way they cried when they got hurt, or when you didn't give them anything they want, the way they shat and pissed their pants, their high pitched voices. They symbolized life and hope for humanity, a hope Verbatim lost long ago.  He slapped his hands over his ears to try to block out the horrible, unbearable sound of youthful mirth.

He closed his eyes and tried to go to his happy place , a place where he was in paradise: a land where the ground was made of the dead rotting of children. But the laughing got louder and shattered his paradise. Verbatim shouted with rage and picked his feathered pencil and threw it against the wall. The pencil bounced off the wall with an unimpressive "tap" and unceremoniously fell to the floor.

Verbatim began to wonder if it was a wise thing to come to Seattle. He hardly ever left his mother's basement, much less venture outside and travel long distances. Yet it was lonely there. The only friends he had were those on bungie.net. That's why he thought it was a good idea to go to the Penny Arcade Expo, this year a huge portion of the bungie.net community would be meeting eachother. He had to get out, he had to experience the world, find one last sign that humanity hadn't completely gone to shit.

Verbatim walked over to the hotel balcony and stepped outside to get some fresh air. He looked around, allowing the vista to distract him from the laughter. He looked down and saw a feral cat tearing apart a rat. In the other alley, a dog was attempting to copulate with a raccoon. His spirit was beginning to lift. But then his eyes caught sight of a playground, where children were having fun on a merry-go-round. It was too much for him to handle, he was too far away to hear them, but just imagining their laughter and screams of mirth was enough to make him sick. Verbatim leaned over the balcony railing and vomited.

His bile fell through the air for a few seconds, and then sprayed a family of 4, a mother, father, and their 6 year old twin girls, who happened to be walking underneath just at that moment.  The mother slipped on the vomit and fell on her backside. The girls screamed and their cries pierced Verbatim's ears like a knife. He retched more of his lunch, over the railing. The father looked up and began to swear at Verbatim, but his mouth opened just as Verbatim's new wave of vomit splattered in it and all over his face. 

The father gagged and sputtered, then he too, vomited onto the ground. Or rather, onto his wife who was still on the ground. Like a chain reaction, the family all began to vomit. They sprayed a couple of people who were walking by and caused them to vomit as well. In less then a few minutes, the entire block was covered in chain vomit. Verbatim, weak from the exertion, desperately pulled himself back inside and collapsed on the bed, and fell asleep. He began to dream, the recurring nightmare he had for the past few days.

He surrounded by hundreds and hundred of attractive women who began to touch him and caress him. They planted kisses on his cheeks, on his chest, and all over his body. As usual, the dream started out good....but then the women went blurry. When they came back into focus, they were pregnant. Suddenly they began to moan and blood began to pour everywhere. Verbatim tried to scream "NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!" but nothing came out because there was a pacifier in his mouth. Wait....a pacifier? The woman began to grow larger....no, Verbatim was shrinking. His arms and legs became incredible small, his hair began to shrink. His whole body diminished in size until he was the size of a baby.

The woman laid on their backs and began to shriek in agony. They began to give birth on top og Verbatim. Suddenly he was being buried alive under hundreds and hundreds of newborns. But instead of crying, they were laughing, they were hugging him, nibbling on him, their toothless mouthes gummed on his defenseless body. He tried to scream again, but nothing happened. The laughing grew louder and louder, and finally he screamed. He awoke to the neighbor's kid laughing again.

He looked at his watch. He'd slept for an hour. "Vien should have arrived by now." he thought. He couldn't stand this room, he couldn't stand being along after that nightmare. So he texted Vien:

Verbatim: "Let me know when you get to the hotel. Btw, if you haven't settled in already, do you want to switch rooms? There is a family next door with kids. Their laughter makes me want to choke a kitten."

Vien: "I just arrived and sure. There are no human offspring near my room"

Verbatim: "ok thanks and you don't need to act like an elite dude. That's not even funny on bungie.net"

Vien: "Lol...yeah. Sorry. There are no kids here. I'm in room 777."

Verbatim packed up his stuff and left room 666 in a hurry. He headed to the elevator and pressed the button. After a few seconds, the elevator chimed and the doors opened, revealing 6 children and their mother. Verbatim screamed and ran into the stairwell instead, leaving the family rather confused. He traveled up the steps and came out on the next floor. He began to head towards room 777 when he began to wonder what Vien was like in real life. Did he really act like an elite all the time? He certainly hoped not, that would be way too weird. Verbatim hoped it was just some weird act Vien put on in the forums.

Finally he reached room 777 and knocked on the door, waiting nervously. The door opened and an 8 foot giant stepped out. His head and neck were slightly deformed, which caused his head to tilt to one side. His mouth jutted out slightly.  Verbatim was rather startled, he did not expect Vien to be ....well, giant. "Whoa......" he said, "You're really big!" Vien stood there for a moment, then said rather nervously, "That's...what she said."

Chapter 4: The message

Vien opened the door and watched a look of astonishment and surprise come over Verbatim's face. "Whoa, you're really big" he had said. Vien took a few seconds, but then he joked rather nervously "That's what she said.". It was a gag humans used whenever somebody said something that could be taken sexually. Verbatim uttered a forced laugh then they exchanged pleasantries and switched hotel cards. Verbatim moved into Vien's hotel room and Vien began took the elevator downstairs to Verbatim's room and unpacked.

As he was beginning to put his clothes in the drawers, his phone emitted another moan. He looked at a rather mysterious text message from a number he did not recognize:

"Vien, I hope that this warning does not come too late. We are not alone. The horrors of our origin have made their touch. I have a suspicion that they will manifest at the convention you are attending. If you have any weapons, carry them."  <3 <3 <3

Vien was bewildered at the meaning of the message. He began to wonder if it was some sort of odd prank when he received another text message from Verbatim, who told him that they were supposed to meet up with Camnator. So Vien exited his hotel room and met up with Verbatim once again and they both took a cab to the convention center. After arriving and paying cab fare, Vien hit his head on the roof of the cab, then got out. Verbatim lead Vien to a small square garden with rocks jutting out of it. Apparently that's where they were supposed to meet Camnator and waited. 10 minutes went by without any sign of him.

There was a group of  human children nearby chasing eachother and laughing. Vien smiled, he grew fond of the often quirky and unpredictable behavior of humanity's youth. But Verbatim let out a groan and leaned on a trash can. "What ails you?" Vien asked. Verbatim gave a look at the children running around and said "Them.....they make me sick.". Vien nodded, apparently Verbatim's hatred of humanity's progeny extends to the real life world as well. Vien opened his phone and sent a text to Camnator, explaining the situation. But he got no reply.

One of the children accidentally bumped into Verbatim, bounced back  and fell on his bottom and began to cry. Verbatim's face turned red, his temples throbbed, and it looked like he was about to shout at the young boy. But instead of making any sort of sound that resembled a word, he vomited directly onto the young boy's head. The boy scrambled up and ran off screaming, trailing specks of bile on the ground behind him. Another 10 minutes had passed when Vien received a reply from Camnator:  "Sorry, I got lost. I'll be there soon. My head is foggy, I didn't smoke enough weed last night."

Vien and Verbatim waited for Camnator to show up. The time went by rather slowly, people hustled past, some gave the two strange looks. Finally, after what seemed like an eternity, a cab pulled up and a rather odd fellow stepped out of it. His clothes were all adorned with pictures of Marijuana leaves. He carried a rather large green backpack that seemed to be on the point of bursting. Indeed, the zipper couldn't zip all the way and there were what appeared to be a few hoses dangling out of it.

The guy took out what appeared to be rolls of $20s and through it at the driver, then he started walking towards Vien and Verbatim. When he was about 5 feet away, he gazed at Vien with reddened eyes, then he looked at Verbatim,  who was hurling his hatred of children into a trash can.  The newcomer began to giggle hysterically and he tried to speak. "Heyyyyyy guys, what's up dudes? Are you ready for this or what?"

"Are you Camnator?" Vien asked. Camnator blinked for a moment, and then said "Ah yeah, sorry. I forgot to put on my badge." then he reached into his pocket and pulled out a marijuana leaf-shaped piece of paper. On the paper was written Camnator. Verbatim finally stopped puking and said "God, you are a fucking idiot.". Camnator just smiled and said "What's wrong with him?". "An adolescent ran into him earlier." Vien explained. "Is it possible for your speci.....for somebody to be allergic to children?"  "No," Camnator replied, "He's just got stick up his ass.HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHHAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHAHAH!" "That made no sense" Verbatim replied, glowering at Camnator.

So then Vien and Verbatim put on their namebadges and headed into the convention center with Camnator, who just pulled a lettuce size ball of weed out of his bag, stuffed it into an ice cream cone and began to eat it like a snack. As they headed inside, it got noisier and busier. It was so noisy that Vien did not hear his phone moaning. If he had looked at his phone, he would have seen a notification from Maluki, warning him that he had left behind the power cell recharging apparatus for his hologram.   

________

From an undisclosed location, a mysterious female voice resonates through the minds of 3 young woman. "He is here, the one who will enable our conquest. You must capture him. And remember, you must be together. Be careful about the actress, she is onto us."

"Yes master, we will do as you command" the 3 women said simultaneously.

Chapter 4.5: Phone call

(Some time earlier)
Kiala Rioam, or rather "Jane", picked up the telephone and dialed a number. She waited as the tone beeped. Then somebody picked up the phone and screamed "JOHN CENA?".

Jane: Hello Viktor, it's Jane.

John Cena: JOHN CENA!! JOHN!!

Jane: It's nice to hear you too. But I do not have time for idle chit chat, I called to ask for you help.

John Cena: CENA?

Jane: This is important. It's what you and I feared...we weren't the only ones transferred to this world.

John Cena: ...JOHN?

Jane: Yes, and I fear that a terrible terrible bane of my universe made it through, it just hasn't showed it's face until now. I have firm reason to believe it decided to use the cultures of our favorite website as a template. Or rather, as an inspiration for it's incarnation, and very soon. Within a day in fact. Probably tomorrow.

John Cena: JOHN CENA!!!!! JOHN CENA JOHN CENA!!! CENA?

Jane: I had very little time to tell you, I only just confirmed my suspicious a few minutes ago. I have reason to believe they will attack at the Penny Arcade Expo. Vien.....is going to be there. This whole planet may be in grave danger soon, and he will be near the center of it. He may be aware that there is danger, that's why he probably decided to go. 

John Cena: CENA......

Jane: I will be there too. My holosuit avatar has been a celebrity for these humans for a long time. In fact, they are making one of these video games based off a franchise I starred in. I voiced one of the characters as my avatar, so I will be making a celebrity appearance.

John Cena: JOHN CENA, JOHN CENA JOHN?

Jane: No, nobody suspect anything. Not even Vien knows who my holosuit avatar is. But that's beside the point. You and I may be the only ones capable of stopping this. I don't know how many there are, but you are the only one capable of resisting their corruption.

John Cena: JOHN....CENA? JOHN CENA CENA:

Jane: Because you only do one thing. They can't make you do anything else.

John Cena: John cena....John.

Jane: Thank you, this means a lot to me. It will be just like old times, only not anywhere near as funny or amusing. I will send you the details later. Goodbye Viktor.

John Cena: CENA!


Jane hung up the phone and walked over to a table next to her bed. She picked up a metal orb and pressed a button. It opened up and a holographic picture appeared, depicting her standing by Vien's side, being held in his arms. She clicked her mandibles, sighed, and fought back tears. Then she put the orb down and opened a drawer. She grabbed a belt with a large green button, wrapped it around her waist and activated it. Starting from the ground up, her disguise began to materialize. First her feet were hidden then replaced by the feet of a human being, then her legs....then her waist, until the rest of her body was completely hidden. Under this guise, nobody had no idea that she was an alien. In fact, with this face, she was known for killing aliens. They called her Sigourney Weaver.

Chapter 5: PAX

The noise and the excitement of the Penny Arcade Expo got to Verbatim. He hated crowds and he hated noise. He was incredibly lonely when all he did was live in his mother's basement and hate the world. Verbatim hoped that by coming to PAX, he would make new friends. But now he wish he had never come at all. People were screaming with excitement jostling into him and bumping into eachother.

Verbatim tried to focus on the different display booths, hoping something might actually catch his interest. There were many banners and signs advertizing the big event scheduled to happen at PAX, including a special celebrity appearance by Sigourney Weaver to promote the new game of the Alien franchise: The End. Another banner advertized a new halo game: Halo xbox one 2.

Verbatim almost lost track of the other two guys and panicked a little bit. But fortunately Vien's height made him easy to spot in the crowd. He ran over to Vien and shouted angrily "DON'T LEAVE ME BEHIND! I have no idea where we are going!" "Forgive me" Vien said, "But it appears Camnator knows where we are supposed to meet up with the bungie.net community." Camnator, although he was no doubt stoned beyond belief, seemed confident that he knew where to go.

They both followed the pothead for a while, and looked at the different booths along the way. Camnator kept laughing hysterically at random moments, he seemed to find the most amusement in the most trivial of things, such as trash cans, the incoherency of government, the benefits of weed, the beauty of weed, the smell of weed, the sexiness of weed, and talked about different recipes you could use weed in. Verbatim was about to tell Camnator to shut up when he suddenly stopped and looked around.

Camnator pointed towards a group of people and said "There they are, look I can see Foman talking to Camcamm," Verbatim looked closer at the group and saw they were wearing namebadges with their bungie.net usernames. Foman was talking to CamCamm about something. As they got closer, Foman suddenly looked up and pointed at the cieling and said "Yo, look at that!". CamCamm looked up at where Foman was pointing.. As she did so, Foman snuck a creepshot of the underside of her chin with his cell phone. "What did you see?" the clueless woman said still looking up at the place where foman pointed. "I don't see anything unusual." "Oh nothing" Foman replied, a perverted grin spread across his face. "I must have been seeing things."

There were others there as well. Recon Number 54 was sitting down at a table, talking to a few of the other forum ninjas, his weight caused the table to tilt a little bit. Spartan Ken was running around and showing off his swag with a disturbing amount of enthusiam. There was Raw Sugar, SecondClass, Elegiac, Loaf, MyNameIsCharlie, etc. Lonepaul was there with his girlfriend, who looked like she was no older than 12, which made Verbatim feel a little bit queazy.

Then he saw Harlow And JayTheNerdKid. Verbatim was hoping that Harlow wouldn't make an appearance, he really hated that stuck up piece of crap. But he noticed something strange about the two. Harlow seemed to be standing there, expressionless. He was talking to True Underdog but his words carried no inflection, his face showed no emotion. Jay on the other hand was flamboyant and loud. Her namebadge read "JayTheNerdKid, queen of sapphire." Her laughter carried in the air like nails on chalkboard. She was pregnant....very pregnant. In fact, Verbatim had never seen anybody so pregnant. It looked like she was going to have twins or triplets, maybe even quadruplets.

As the trio got closer, people greeted Vien and expressed wonder at his tall stature. But Verbatim couldn't take his eyes off Jay. He never liked her, not one bit. But he never felt anything uneasy about her. Something seemed off...other than the fact that anybody would willingly impregnate her. Jay turned to look at Verbatim and smiled at him....AT him. Something in her eyes sent chills down Verbatim's spine. She waved at him and he averted his eyes, he did not want to look at her. Then he saw Camnator and was shocked to find Camnator trembling nervously.

This whole time Camnator had been jovial. High, but Jovial. Now he looked like he was petrified, as if he had seen a ghost. He too was staring at Jay with what appeared to be a look of sheer horror. But then he seemed to gather himself and went over to join Vien. Verbatim wondered what that was all about, but shrugged it off and rejoined the others. After listening to Vien and Camnator chatting with some of the old floodians about PAX and about bungie.net, he felt a pressure in his bladder. He suddenly had to go to the restroom very quickly. "Guys, I'll be right back. I have to piss." Verbatim told the group, then ran off to find the men's room.

After finding the men's room he opened the door and went inside and found it rather empty, which surprised him because PAX was a huge event. He expected more people to be using the restroom. But he didn't give it much thought. He went to the nearest urinal, unzipped his pants, and went about his business. When Verbatim was done, he zipped back up, went over to the sink to wash his hands. He looked in the mirror and saw that his face was sweaty. He wet his hands then splashed the water on his face, scrubbing his cheeks with his palms. He grabbed a paper towel and dried his face. When he opened his eyes, he saw Jay standing right behind him, wearing the same eerie smile she gave him a few minutes ago.

Chapter 6: The queen of sapphire

Verbatim uttered a profanity which echoed off the walls. He turned around and said "Jay! What the hell are you doing in here? This is the men's room! You can't be in here!". But Jay's smile widened. If Verbatim hadn't already evacuated his bladder, he probably would have pissed his pants. Almost instantly, a change overcame the bathroom. Before, Verbatim could hear the noise coming from outside the bathroom door. But now it suddenly became quiet, at if somebody had turned on the mute button. The atmosphere carried a feeling of dead silence. Verbatim couldn't describe it, it just felt...wrong...filthy. He felt like he was in the presence of something evil.

"Jay," he asked "What are you doing in here?" Jay answered "I'm going to help you achieve your dream." and continued to smile. "Uhh......." Verbatim stammered "You hate humanity don't you? You hate your life don't you?" Jay asked, never changing her smile. Verbatim was sweating now, there was something definitely wrong with Jay. Perhaps her pregnancy was messing with her mind, perhaps she was on drugs. Nevertheless, he wanted to get away from her immediately. He tried to go around her but she moved to intercept him. Her extended belly threatened to touch him...the thought of it started to make him sick again.

"Jay, let me out. I don't know what's gotten into you, but I want out. Get out of my WAY!" Verbatim demanded. But Jay began to walk towards him. Verbatim was forced to back up away from that belly, down the hallway that divided the stalls. "Oh Verby, do you mind if I call you that? Nope, don't answer that. It's almost time. Today, humanity is going to meet it's end and you are going to help." she said. Verbatim continued to back up, but then he heard a stall open behind him. He swung around and saw another pregnant woman. She was wearing a namebadge in the shape of a rose. She had the same smile on her face that Jay had. Another stall opened and out stepped yet another pregnant woman. She was wearing a hoodie, which cast a shadow on her face, Verbatim couldn't see any of her features. Her namebadge simply said "shadows".

Verbatim began to freak out. "Ok WHAT THE FUCK IS GOING ON?" he asked. Jay answered, "We need you......" her voice became low, almost seductive as she walked closer and closer. Verbatim had heard enough. He ran into one of the stalls and crawled under the divider into the next stall. Then he came out behind Jay and ran for the door. Verbatim was only a few feet away when the door opened and Harlow entered the bathroom and immediately grabbed Verbatim. Verbatim flailed and shouted at Harlow "DUDE GET THE FUCK OFF ME! LET ME GO! WHAT THE FUCK IS WRONG WITH YOU GUYS?!?" he shouted. He punched Harlow in the face, but Harlow did not react. It was as if he didn't even feel it.

Harlow dragged Verbatim back to the 3 women with impossible strength. Then he threw Verbatim on the ground and held him there. Jay, Rose, and Shadows gathered around, looking down at him. "Isn't Andy a dream? He's the perfect man, so easy to influence and he agrees to everything I say. Of course, brainwashing him to be my mate and my slave helps." Jay said, giggling a little bit. But then her voice took on a serious tone. "It is time." Jay said, "The moment has finally come. Your hatred of humanity and of life itself will nourish our offspring, your anguish and horror shall be the first things they see when they enter this world. That way they can be conditioned with the will to carry out their purpose: the destruction of humanity. As our Goddess commands us, we give birth to the future."

Jay Jay, Rose, and Shadows began to squat over Verbatim's face. His eyes widened with horror. His screams matched the screams of the 3 women as they pushed. The lights in the bathroom flickered and one of the lightbulbs popped. Out in the main expodition area, the stages began to malfunction. The video game demos began to error, pixelation spread across all the screens. A loud buzzing noise emanated from all the loudspeakers, causing confusion and concern among all the gamers.

Harlow held Verbatim there, his face still expressionless. A baby fell onto Verbatim's face. But it unlike any other baby. It wasn't crying, it wasn't bloody. Indeed, it was covered in a green slime and it didn't have eyes, just empty sockets where its eyes should have been. It began to giggle madly and it clung to Verbatim's face. The Jay spawn pressed a sucker-like mouth to Verbatim's cheeks. He thrashed around, tears streaming down his face as yet another baby dropped onto his body. It too, was giggling like a mad cupid. It was covered in the same green slime. Verbatim felt something alien piercing into his mind, as if it were examining his entire life. The entity....no....entities were thriving on his hopelessness. He could feel their glee and excitement when they went through his memories and saw how much he hated humanity, how much he hated himself.

More babies dropped on his face and body, soon he was covered in babies. Verbatim grew weak and he began to stop struggling. He was only vaguely aware that the bathroom door had burst open. That the babies let go of him and scattered, crawled up the walls and into the vents. He heard voices, but they seemed muffled. He saw a tall woman perform some sort of martial arts....or maybe a dance. Harlow fell to the ground, followed by Jay, Rose, and Shadows.  He closed his eyes and felt himself being picked up. "Are you ok?" he heard. "What's happening in here?" another voice asked. "GET OUT!" the woman said, "But Miss Weaver..." the man began to protest.  "I Said GET OUT! GET EVERYBODY OUT OF THIS BUILDING!"

Verbatim felt a sharp pain to his cheek. It brought him back into consciousness. His eyes open and his vision came into focus. He wasn't sure what he was seeing, but he appeared to be in the arms of Sigourney Weaver. "Tell me everything that happened in here." She demanded. "I don't care how crazy you think you'll sound, tell me everything!"

Chapter 7: Porch day incarnate

Camnator liked to think of himself as an optimist, as a free-thinker. Weed opened his mind to lots of possibilities, it connected him to the earth and its life. He could detect the auras around everybody and everything. He could tell from somebody's aura whether they were happy, sad, angry, or scared. He could tell when somebody wasn't being honest because their auras would fluctuate. Vien was definitely hiding something, but he felt no ill will from him. No matter what mood people were in, he always thought auras were beautiful. They were proof that people were truly alive. There were no ugly Auras in the world...until he saw Harlow and Jay.

Harlow's aura was almost nonexistant. It was as if he were an empty vessel, devoid of any personality or original thought whatsoever. His life-force was just...there. It was just enough to keep Harlow alive and functioning. Jay's aura on the other hand...Camnator didn't quite know how to describe it. Such unadulterated evil and chaos shouldn't even exist. Her aura felt like an affront, an insult to life itself. It didn't feel like a life force...it felt like disease and corruption, it felt like it wasn't even human. No....not even inhuman could describe it. It didn't even feel alive...yet it was too powerful to deny. Oh god it was powerful.

Camnator felt like he had been hit with pure malice and deceit. For the first time in many many years, he was actually afraid. It felt like oppression and chaos, the embodiment of purposeful incoherence. Yet he in that moment, he also understood why she became so popular. Her aura carried with it temptation, manipulation, and deceipt. It writhed around her like tendrils. She had the power to bend people to her will. To make them her slaves. He didn't know how Jay was alive...she couldn't possibly have such a vehement yet powerful puissance. Camnator found that he couldn't breath or move for a moment. He could feel his muscles tremble involuntarily. Finally he summoned up the will to turn away. Immediately he felt better, he felt relieved. Shaking, he joined Vien.

Nobody else seemed aware of anything unusual. But then again, they did not have the gift of sight. They did not smoke weed. For the first time in his life, Camnator wondered if they were right not to smoke it. They did not see the storm surrounding Jay. To them, she was just a relatively attractive woman. Camnator pretended to be paying attention to the conversation Vien and longface were having. Longface, actually did have a very long face. It was definitely a deformation, and it caused him to form his words funny when he spoke. Which caused Camnator to chuckle. The horror he had felt began to ebb away.

Longface turned to face Camnator and said "Whaat ayr yeeeeu leefing eet?" he asked, which caused Camnator to laugh even harder. "Do not mind Camnator" vien answered, "If I had to guess, the influence of marijuana causes him to find great mirth in the most unpredictable of things." Verbatim came up and said "Guys, I have to use the restroom. I'll be right back." then he left in a hurry.

Camnator looked around and didn't see Jay or Harlow anywhere. Assuming they went to explore all the booths and demos, Camnator relaxed, reached in his pocket and got out a bag of weed infused candy drops, unwrapped one and popped it in his mouth. Some of the bungie.net members got up and headed off to check out the rest of PAX. But he and Vien waited for Verbatim to get back.

Spartan Ken was still sticking around. He began to talk about halo xbox one 2. "I thought halo had died with halo 4 but then I thought it had died with Halo xbox one." Ken began, " Seriously, what were they thinking turning Halsey into an AI? But I am really excited about halo xbox one 2 because they are bringing back armor lock. I really like armor lock." Ken went on and on for about 15 minutes. Verbatim was taking a long time to get back.

Suddenly the lights began to flicker and the loudspeakers which had been making announcements began to emit a bunch of loud static. The displays at all the demos pixelated and distorted. Murmers and shouts of confusion began to spread around the crowd. A tall cloaked hooded figure ran past Vien and Camnator in the direction that Verbatim took. Probably a Jedi Cosplayer.

The power struggled and a few of the computers went out. But after a few moments, it came back on and stabilized. Whatever had happened seemed to be fixed. It was at this time that Camnator heard Vien gasp. Camnator looked up at the giant and saw him looking at his cell phone. His face became as pale as chalk. "Is something wrong Vien?" Camnator asked. "u-uh.....no. It's nothing." Vien replied, but his aura fluctuated rapidly. "I have to use the restroom too" he said and hobbled off hurriedly.

Camnator stayed there and waited, suckling on his weed candy. Spartan ken was still yammering, apparently unaware that nobody was listening to anything he said or cared. Camnator closed his eyes and lifted his legs and rest them on the table. When he did that, he heard something collide and bounce along the floor, followed by a dozen gasps. Annoyed, he opened his eyes and said "Oh come on, my shoes aren't tha.....tha....dir..." he stopped and looked at the table in disbelief. No.....it had changed. Its material also changed. No longer was it made of plastic.....it became a platform made of wooden planks. In the middle of the platform was spartan ken. No, only the upper half of Sparten Ken. It looked like his body had phased through it. Ken had an expression of shock on his face. He began to gasp for air and began to cough up blood, but then his head slumped. The table.....had turned into a porch....a dead Spartain Ken was on the porch. Camnator didn't know what to do.

Suddenly people began to scream as other various objects began to turn into porches. Some people got crushed and thrown by the rapid extension of the porches edges, others phased through the porches and died as Ken did. It was chaos. People kept screaming "THERE ARE PORCHES ON MY TABLE, WHAT DO I DO?!?!?!" Camnator was thrown into the air as his own chair turned into a porch. He landed with a painful thud. But he got up and began to run for it. He had to find Vien and Verbatim. He consulted his weed-induced gifts andfollowed the yellow trail. Objects to his left and right kept turning into porches. Camnator ducked and barely dodged a porch that nearly took off his head and he jumped over another one.

Porches of different sizes and different styles kept popping up all over the place. Camnator tripped over a tile that had turned into a 3 foot porch. Suddenly he felt something in his mouth extend and push against the sides of his cheeks and against the back of his throat, causing him to gag and choke. He used his fingers to pry open his mouth as wide as he could, and spat out his weed candy....which had turned into a small porch. Camnator heard a loud crash that shook the building, followed by what sounded like a bunch of glass following to the floor coming from the main area. Camnator stopped and looked back in shock....a huge patio had crashed through the skylight and smashed against the floor. A few seconds later, bodies fell through the opening in the roof and splattered against the patio, followed what appeared to be the turbines of a jet engine which crashed against the floor, sending the blades flying in all directions, some of which turned into porches while they were in midair, splintering when they hit the walls.

Camnator shouted and continued to run. He picked up the trail which led him to the men's room. He opened the door then slammed it behind him. He had a moment to catch his breath. But what he found in the bathroom was a sight he could not believe. Jay and 2 other women were on the ground. Alive, but unconscious. Jay's aura lost its maliciousness. Sitting in the corner of the bathroom in a fetal position was Verbatim. But Camnator couldn't believe who was standing in the middle of the bathroom. He had to blink his eyes a few times. But he was not mistaken, Sigourney Weaver was standing there, looking at him. A ferocious look in her eyes.

She walked over and went past Camnator, grabbed the door handle to the entrance of the bathroom, and tied it in a knot with impossible strength. Then she went over to the stall and rapped her knuckles on the door. "Vien!" she snapped, "Get out here right now." A voice much unlike Vien's answered, "Jane...I mustn't. My device is running out of power. I will be discovered." his voice was much deeper and oddly familiar. "It doesn't matter. Get out here or I will tear that door down and drag you out here. It is time for you and I to explain to these whelps what is going on." Sigourney demanded. But Vien protested "But I don't know what's going on......but oh well."

Camnator heard a beep, followed by a fizzling sound. His jaw dropped as Vien's feet seemed to dissolve like a mirage, revealing inhuman, alien hooves. The stall door opened and Camnator almost fainted. A real-life sanghieli in a pink thong stood there, looking back at him.

Chapter 8: Mute, Cena, and the corrupted

Vien ran to the restroom as fast as he could when he got Maluki's message. But he never expected to see a woman in the men's room who also happened to be a celebrity. Vien also never expected to receive a hug and a kiss on his cheeks from the woman, and he most certainly didn't expect her to grope him. Humans usually did not do that to somebody with his appearance unless they were under the influence of alcohol.

"Vien, I'm glad you made it. You must have followed them too." Sigourney said to him as if she knew him. "I beg your pardon miss Weaver?" Vien asked. But then he noticed the bodies on the ground. Jay, Harlow, and 2 other women he did not recognize were laying unconscious on the ground. Vien heard a movement in the corner of the restroom, he looked and saw Verbatim curled in a fetal position. Vien immediately walked over to him as Sigourney Weaver spoke, "He will not talk, I've tried to get information out of him, but humans are so easily traumatized."

Vien stopped and spun around, his holosuit pixelated and reformed. "humans?" He asked. Sigourney Weaver smiled and said "It's nice to see you again love." Then she raised her arm, showing a watch identical to the one on Vien's arm. "Jane?" Vien asked "Is that you?", his voice filled with shock. But somehow, he wasn't as surprised as he sounded. Only Jane could portray a human female as such a badass warrior. But Vien felt another cold spot, this time it was on his legs. He rushed into one of the open stalls and slammed it. "Sorry" he said, "I left my holocell recharging station at my home." Vien could feel the top of his holosuit begin to fail completely. Judging from the cool air he suddenly felt on the top of his head and mandibles, he guessed his head was now exposed.

"That doesn't matter." Jane replied, "As you surely know, this world is in grave danger now. That is why you came isn't it?" Vien began to reply "I have no idea wha....wha..." but a rumbling resounded throughout the building. It began to get closer and closer until the whole bathroom shook. He could hear people screaming in the hallways and something hit the bathroom door with a thump. Vien thought he heard somebody shout "OH GOD! MY UNDERWEAR IS TURNING INTO A PORCH!!!!IT'S TEARING THROUGH MY LEGS GRAHHHHH!!!!!"     

"By the prophets!" Vien said "What it going on out there?" just then, he heard the bathroom door open. Somebody entered and slammed the door behind him. Then he heard Jane walk over to the door, followed by the sound of twisting metal. Then she walked over to Vien's stall and knocked on the door. "Vien! Get out here right now!" she demanded. "Jane, I mustn't. My device is running out of power. I will be discovered." he pleaded. "It doesn't matter! Get out here or I will tear that door down and drag you out here! It is time for you and I to explain to these whelps what is going on." She said with new ferocity. "But I don't know what is going on...." he murmered, but he aquiesced.

Vien pressed a button on his watch and felt the holosuit dematerialize, a gentle cooling sensation cascaded down on his body, taking the human clothes along with it to keep them in digital storage, a nice feature he rather liked. But he remembered he had forgotten to wear more apparel underneath. All he had was a thong he liked to wear because it turned Maluki on. "Oh dear...." he thought. But he pushed through the stall door and stepped out. He saw Camnator standing at the door with a look of disbelief.

"BY THE PROPHETS VIEN, WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU WEARING?" Jane shouted. He saw her face turning red, one of the few characteristics he found made humans look rather indimidating. He tried to play it cool "Uh...I believe they call it a thong. You should try them. I've never felt more free in this clothing." he said. "WHY AREN'T YOU WEARING ANY ARMOR?!?" she shouted and swung her arms, accidentally knocking her control watch against the wall. Her holosuit began to dematialize. Sigourney Weaver's head dematerialized, revealing a fierce-looking female sanghieli. She didn't seem to notice her mistake or she didn't care. "I didn't know it would be needed. I never planned on being seen." Vien replied.

"HOW DID YOU NOT KNOW YOU WOULDN'T NEED IT?!?" Jane shouted, "A WARRIOR SUCH AS YOURSELF SHOULD NEVER LEAVE HIS LIVING QUARTERS WITHOUT IT! FIRST YOU BETRAY ME, THEN YOU MARRY THAT DRAGON, THEN YOU SHOW UP IN THE MIDST OF WHAT COULD BE THE BEGINNING OF THE END OF THIS WORLD WEARING.....THAT MONSTROSITY!!!" To say Jane was furious was an understatement. Vien began to back away from her to get out of danger. There were a few times Vien came close to death. One was when he crashed in a malfunctioning phantom, another was when he fought the flood, the other was when he made Jane angry.

"Vien...." she said, her voice still trembling. "What the HELL is wrong with you?!? Did you not know....did you not see the signs that our foe made it through to this universe?!?" Vien instantly became alert, "THE FLOOD IS HERE?!? WHERE?!? HOW MANY INFECTION FORMS MADE IT THROUGH?!?" he shouted. This set Jane off again. "THE.....THE FLOOD?!? VIEN, WHAT HUMAN DRUGS HAVE YOU BEEN CONSUMING?!?" she screamed. "Jane, our foe...the flood." "VIEN! I do not know WHAT has gotten into you, but THE FLOOD NEVER EXISTED!" her voice now quivered with a hint of fear. "Surely you knew that?!?"

Vien was thoroughly confused. How could she say the flood never existed? He remembered the awful abominations as they.....as they....Vien's mind became foggy. He couldn't recall everything. But he knew the parasite was their enemy, it threatened the entire galaxy, he almost lost Jane to the flood...he almost lost Jane....but he couldn't remember how he almost lost her. "They...were our enemy" he murmered. But suddenly he couldn't recall ever fighting the flood, it was like part of his memory was blocked. "Vien," Jane spoke again, but with a much more gentle tone. "The flood is something Bungie made up." But Vien could remember the halo rings, the prophets, the great journey....but he couldn't remember the flood. "But they based Halo off the human government's document leaks...." Vien said "the leaks where the found...and interrogated me. I told them everything..."

"Jane....I-I don't remember..." He said. "I don't remember....actually fighting the parasite." Jane answered "Vien, something happened to you. The halos did exist, so did the prophets, so did everything else. But our enemy was never the flood. If only it were so easy. The enemy we faced, is far worse. And now they are here, in this universe. One of their....queens...or something....made it through, corrupted 3 of these humans...and did something to your human friend."

They remained silent for a few moments. It was quiet....unnaturally quiet. Before there were screams and trembling, now they couldn't hear anything coming from outside the door. A sudden bubbling noise startled both of them. Jane whirled around and flashed an energy blade to life and pointed it at Camnator, who was sitting there puffing on the hose of a rather large hookah. He took the hose out of his mouth, looked at Jane, and puffed a smoke ring in the air and began to laugh.

"A normal human would freak out witnessing what just happened out there," he began "only to come in here and find out you both are aliens with the hots for eachother. Damn Vien, I knew you were a weirdo, but you surpassed my expectations. It's a good thing God invented weed and all weed paraphanelia. " Just then the sirens began to sound in the distance and a porch burst through the door, right above Camnator's head.

After the dust cleared, Camnator was still sitting there, puffing on his hookah. A loud voice could be heard resonating from the hallway. "I AM THE PORCH LORD!!!! YOU WILL ALL BOW TO ME!!!!" followed by another crash. Jane went over and scooped up Verbatim and threw him into Vien's arms. "Take him. We have to get out of here. This has gotten a lot more complicated than I previously thought." she demanded.

Chapter 9: Mute, Cena, and the corrupted part 2.

Verbatim was aware of everything that was going on around him. But the reason he didn't react is because he was obviously suffering hallucinations caused by LSD. Camnator must have snuck it into his body somehow. That could be the only explanation for what just happened, he was having an acid trip. The last thing he wanted to do was to go anywhere or do anything, who knows what might have happened. That terrible ordeal where Jay and those two other women gave birth on him? It didn't happen. So Verbatim decided to ignore everything he heard or saw until the hallucinations began to go away. He was going to murder Camnator when this was over.

Verbatim didn't even react when Vien stepped out of the stall as a sanghieli wearing a thong. Vien wasn't really there, he was still with the others. Verbatim was alone in the bathroom with his hallucinations. But he couldn't deny how realistic these hallucinations were. They looked real, they sounded real, they even had a scent. Verbatim thought he smelled lavender coming from Vien. Even seeing Sigourney Weaver turn into an armored female sanghieli looked incredibly real...were acid trips supposed to be this detailed? He didn't know, but there was no way this was actually happening. So he stayed in his corner curled up in his fetal position, trying to go to his happy place....the field of dead babies. But the babies were not dead, they were crawling toward him smiling with eyeless smiles....and they were laughing.

Verbatim flinched, it was Camnator laughing, not the babies. He wasn't sure Camnator was there or whether it was a hallucination. A hallucination that was now smoking a hookah, with a plastic bag sitting next to him labeled "Super weed". Well, it certainly seemed like Camnator, perhaps he was really there, tripping on the very same LSD. Verbatim felt like lunging at him, but didn't want to take the chance. So he just kept still....even when something burst through the door and took it off it's hinges.

"Do not move, it isn't happening" Verbatim thought, but he was finding it harder not to move, especially when "Sigourney Weaver" now "Jane", picked him up. He was startled to feel her arms wrapped around him, as if they had substance.  They felt too real to be a hallucination. "Do not move" he thought to himself again...he began to tremble. Jane thrust him into Vien's arms and he felt his head sag against Vien's cool chest. He was petrified, he couldn't move. Verbatim felt Vien's big scaly muscles flexing against his cheek. It was at this point that Verbatim knew he had to do something, he had to move. Hallucination or not, he could not stand this. But he was too afraid to move, he was paralyzed with fear.

"Move damn it!!!" he thought to himself. Vien put a hand under Verbatim's chin and tilted his head up. He was forced to look into the sanghieli's face looking down on him with concern. Vien's mandibles clacked as he spoke "Do not fear, I will protect you." Verbatim felt Vien caress the back of his head and neck, stroking him affectionately. This snapped him out of his paralysis. He flailed in Vien's arms and shouted "LET ME THE FUCK GO YOU FREAK!!!"

Vien let him go and he dropped to the floor. "Now listen, I know you are all probably hallucinations and you will fade with time. But until then, STAY THE FUCK AWAY FROM ME!" he shouted. "Dude, Verbatim," Camnator said, obviously very high, "Get the stick out of your ass man." "DON'T YOU TELL ME TO GET ANY STICKS OUT OF MY ASS, YOU DRUGGED ME YOU PIECE OF SHIT!" Verbatim screeched. "Naw dude, you've gone incoherent. I only smoke weed. Weed clears your mind bro, perhaps I should give you some." Verbatim was about to shout again when suddenly he felt a loud painful smack against the side of his cheek.  He stumbled across the bathroom and hit the wall, tears watering up in his eyes. "Do visions cause pain, human?" Jane said, putting her armored glove back on. Verbatim stood there, dumbfounded and sore. No matter how powerful hallucinations are, they could not possible cause pain like that. This was too crazy. What the hell was going on?

"Jane" Vien said, "You could be a bit nicer" "I DO NOT HAVE TIME TO BE NICE!" she roared. "WE NEED TO GET OUT OF HERE!" Verbatim watched her walk up to the door, shove Camnator to the side with her foot, then she flashed an energy sword to life and cut apart what appeared to be the corner of some wooden structure that was sticking through the door frame. She kicked the broken pieces out of the way. Verbatim could hear somebody screaming "ALL BOW TO THE MIGHT LORD OF PORCHES!!!" followed by another scream and an explosion.

"Come, we must go." Jane said, but then a moan came from behind the group. Jay had awakened. "Wha....where am I?" she began to murmur, then she opened her eyes and saw Harlow and 2 other women laying unconscious next to her. Jay looked up and saw Camnator smoking a bong while gazing at her with reddened eyes, Verbatim glowering at her, then she saw Jane in her alien form and began to whimper with fear. Then she saw Vien, standing there with his majestic sangheili anatomy displayed wearing nothing but pink thong. "You have awakened," Vien said. "You've had a rough time." Jay immediately let out an ear piecing shriek, it seemed to stab at Verbatim's brain and he immediately covered his ears, but it was useless. Jay was like a banshee, her scream was worse than nails on chalkboard, it was almost as bad as child's laughter.

Jane took several strides over and with one simple movement, snapped Jay's neck, and let her fall to the ground apparently dead. Then she took out a metal orb, pressed a few buttons on it. The orb hovered over Jay's neck and two metal tendrils extended from its carapace and pierced Jay. Her body convulsed for a bit and then seemed to freeze. It was as if she were in suspended animation....except that she's dead. Strands of her hair remained floating in the air. "JANE!" Vien shouted "YOU MURDERED HER!" But Jane cut him off "I muted her. She is not dead. It would be a mercy to her if she were." Then she had the Orb do the same to Rose, Shadows, and Harlow. "It's the only thing you can do to the corrupted. It's the only way you CAN fight them....but you forgot....haven't you?" she asked Vien. She didn't wait for an answer. "Do NOT go near ANY of them." Jane ordered, "Do not give them ANY attention. That will break the hold and they will be free again."  Jane looked out the door, she seemed to be Surveying the area. Verbatim could hear fire alarms screeching and people screaming. Another voice shouted "TODAY IS THE DAY OF THE PORCH!!!" Jane quickly ducked back into the bathroom. A large object sailed past the door and crashed down the hallway. "Come, we must go quickly. We have delayed long enough.

They all followed her outside, Camnator clunked his hookah along with him. Jane immediately grabbed it from him, pulled out a plasma pistal and vaporized it. "NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!! WHY?!?!?!" Camnator wailed. "If I didn't need you, I would leave you behind. But it seems you have a role to play in the events that are transpiring. Be that as it may, I will not be slowed down by your drugs. I need you sharp." Jane responded. "b-but you ignoramous" Verbatim heard Camnator murmer..."it makes me sharp." Jane ignored him, touched a button on her wrist and spoke into it. "Viktor, I am sending you my location. They found the host. There are several corrupted humans around my location. One of them appears to have gained the ability....to spawn porches. We are no match for him. We need your help. Please hurry."

"JOOHN CENA!!!!" said a loud voice over Jane's communications device. "No way.....!" Camnator said, a look of glee coming over his face. "This is going to be awesome!"   But Verbatim groaned....it couldn't possible get any worse. This whole situation felt like something some deranged autistic creep would dream up.

Chapter 10: Porch Lord

Camnator knew he should be pissed, but he wasn't. As long as he hid the other bongs in his bookbag from Jane, he would be fine. The superweed he had smoked brought an amazing sense of happiness, space, and clarity. He followed Jane outside and couldn't help but notice a spot in the back of her armor that wasn't plated, perhaps to allow for more flexibility. Whatever the reason, Camnator could not take his eyes off that robust alien booty. It was one of the most gorgeous things he'd ever seen. It if weren't for her split lips and the fact that she destroyed his toy, he would totally try to pick her up. That's how confident he was. Plus she snapped Jay's neck. That really turned him on.

The odd party stepped outside the door. Jane picked up the door frame and told vien to hold it in place. She used her plasma pistol to weld its seams shut, making sure nobody could get in. It was then that Camnator noticed all the porches. The walls of the convention center were no longer there. Instead there were big gaping holes which opened the view to the rest of seattle. Scattered along the blocks were hundreds and hundreds of porches of different sizes. Even the buildings across the street had morphed into gigantic porches. Helicopters flew through the air, only to have their propellers turn into porches and tear their chasis in half. 

But Camnator's attention was immediately drawn to a.....confusing aura. It was coming from a man standing in the middle of what used to be part of the convention center. His nametag said Porch Lord. But the aura was coming from something that was clinging to that man's back. Camnator used his weed-powered eyesight to focus closer. It looked like a grotesque deformed baby, clinging to Porch Lord's back. It turned it's head towards Camnator and he jumped. It didn't have any eyes.....but it's gaze immediately filled him with dread. It seemed to pierce into his soul. For a moment, he couldn't breath. But then the baby let go and scittered away with inhuman speed and disappeared amongst the rubble. Somebody ran across the open chasm, tripping over porch planks. Camnator read his nametag, it said "Darth Ban 7365".

Immediately Porch Lord's arms began to convulse and his body twitched erraticaly. "THERE IS A DARTH BAN ON MY PORCH! WHAT SHALL I DO?!?" he shouted maniacally. He raised his arm and pointed at Darth Ban, who immediately doubled over and began to scream, clutching his stomach in agony. Then a porch burst out of his bowels, tearing him in half in bloody mist. Porch lord turned and pointed his finger at somebody Camnator couldn't see. "no....NO!!!! DON'T DO IT..." a voice screamed. " TEHALOS IS ON MY PORCH! WHAT SHALL I DO?!?" Porch lord shouted. Camnator heard choking, followed by a brutal ripping sound. Somebody's severed head flew through the air.

It was horrible....horrible beyond belief. But superweed allowed Camnator to remain calm. Jane on the other hand, grabbed him and pulled him by his scruff. "DO not allow him to see you unless you want to suffer the same fate." She said. But then Porch Lord's head exploded and he fell over as if he had been sniped. Camnator felt another deadly aura somewhere above them. "Get sniped.....bitch...." a voice said. "Wow, somebody took care of that freak!" Verbatim commented. "No..." Camnator replied..."He's one of them.." but he wasn't even sure what he was talking about. But somehow he knew that the deadly auras he sensed were connected.

Porch Lord's head began to regenerate and he began to stand up again. "no...fucking way.." Verbatim murmered. Jane spoke with urgency. "Come, we have to move." she lead the group down the hallway away from the commotion just as Porch lord shouted "I SEE YOU DAS BOOT!!!! BOW TO THE PORCH LORD!!" followed by a loud crash. Jane turned on her communicator again and asked "WHERE THE HELL ARE YOU?!?" to which John Cena replied "JOHN CENA!!! CENA!" "Well, hurry!!" she said. Suddenly Recon stepped out in front of the group, tears running down his face.

"I....I tried to s-save them....b-but...OH IT WAS HORRIBLE!!!" he wailed. "I only saved one of them......b-but..." then he took a cheese covered baked potato out of his pocket and held it in front of him.  "LOOK AT WHAT HAPPENED TO HIM!!!" Camnator thought recon had lost it, his mind. But then the potato talked, its halves flapping like a mouth. "I don't know what you are crying about Recon. Nothing is wrong with me. My hands and arms are just a bit numb, that's all. Now let me go, we need to get out of here!" Recon only wailed even harder. "OHHHHHHHHHH IT'S SO TRAGIC!!!!!!! HE DOESN'T EVEN KNOW WHAT HAPPENED TO HIM.....and I'm so hungry....I've been trying to resist........" "Wait Recon..what are you doing?" the potato said as recon began to lick it "what are you doing recon....stahp....let me go. This feels funny...ohhh....recon...this is wrong.." Recon continued to lick out the potatoe
s cheese, but then raised the cheesy potato up to his mouth and opened it. "NOOOO RECON STOP!!!!" Recon bit into it, drawing a shriek from the animated food.

Camnator thought it was a very macabre sight, watching an old man crying as he ate a potato that screamed and begged for it's life. After swallowing the last bit of potato, Recon broke down on the ground sobbing. "We don't have time for this" Jane said, and she lead the group on towards an unknown destination. Suddenly Camnator felt more piercing cold auras. Dozens of corrupted stepped out and looked at them. They were all bungie.net members who wore their nametags. Baconshelf walked towards them and laid his hand against the wall. Shelves made of bacon began spread from the point his hand made contact with. Grandmasterninja blinked...and vanished into thin air. Camnator couldn't even sense his aura. Citadel Space closed his eyes, his arms began to turn into tentacles and his body became transparent. He morphed into a Hanar and said "This one feels the need to feel you."

"THIS WAY! RUN!" Jane said as she flashed her sword to life and sliced off the hanar's appendages. The group ran down another hall while being chased by the other corrupted. They turned a corner and found that their path was blocked by a massage whale just sitting in the hallway. A namebadge pinned to it's nose said "ADerpyWhale". It opened it's mouth and made a loud "OOOOOOOMMMMMM" and tried to wriggle towards the party, shaking the foundations of the passage. "By the prophets! We are trapped!" Vien said. Camnator felt the floor begin to tremor. It felt like something big was getting closer and closer. He heard somebody shout "JOOOOOOHHHHN CENA!!!!" then the wall exploded.

Camnator couldn't quite work out what he was seeing. Something had burst through the wall, a huge mass of muscle plowed through the corrupted, smashing them like flies, leaving puddles of gore in its wake. The creature's legs were human, but they were huge. Instead of a waist, another set of legs appeared where the waist should have been. In between the second set of legs was very long appendage that almost looked like an elephant trunk, except it was the color of human flesh and it had a large mouth with teeth at the end. The creature didn't have any eyes or a head.......in fact, it looked kind of like a subliminal you'd find in a silent hill game...if the main character had been traumatized by meatspin.

The mouth shouted "JOHN CENAAAA!!!!" and the creature continued to smash down the hallway. Camnator heard in the distance "JOHN CENA IS ON MY POR..." but it was cut off. Jane instructed her orb to mute the fallen corrupted before they could regenerate. A few minutes later, John Cena came back, carrying a torsoless Porch Lord in his mouth and dropped it in front of the orb so that it could do it's job.

"Thank you Viktor" Jane said. "Now we must get to my ship so that we can talk about..." But John Cena smashed open another part of the wall, revealing a large purple spaceship. "CEENNAAA!!!!" it shouted. "I don't know how you brought that here, but you are an amazing warrior...if not unique. But let's go. We have a lot to discuss and I'd rather not have any more interruptions." So the party entered into the ship. Camnator couldn't help but giggle like a little girl, this was awesome. Horrific, but awesome.

Jane pressed a button on her wrist. Camnator felt a wave of energy pass over him. The space around him seemed to cramp.....everything seemed to compress all around him....he felt like he was going to be crushed, but as soon as it started it was over.The pressure was relieved and everything was back to normal. It was as if it never happened. "We are no longer in Seattle" Jane said. "We are hundreds of feet under the premises of my avatar, Sigourney Weaver. Here we can talk without being overheard." Jane removed her armor, revealing a flexible suit that revealed her contours. Camnator gasped audibly, that alien booty was even more majestic than he had thought.

"Jane," Vien said, "What is going on? What happened to those humans back there? I watched a human documentary called X-men about humans who once developed special powers after being sent to concentration camps. Was that what they were? Mutagens?" "NO VIEN YOU IDIOT!!!!" Jane roared. But then she controlled herself an sighed. "no Vien....they are not mutants." "Then what are they?" Vien asked. "You don't remember...I do not know why Vien, but you do not remember anything do you?"Jane asked. "Do you even remember my real name?" Vien didn't respond. Jane sighed and continued "In our universe, our enemy wasn't the flood. It was the bane."

Chapter 11: The bane

The party followed Jane through her ship as she talked. Verbatim was constantly looking around with fear and disbelief in his eyes. Camnator was fixated on Jane's torso for some reason Vien could not guess. Vien recognized the interior of the ship with a pang of longing, he remembered being here many times. Jane would often "interrogate" him inside these walls, something she was VERY good at.

"The Bane" Jane continued, "is the manifestation of chaos. A phenomenom that spreads disorder like a disease. As it spreads, the very laws of the universe around it cease to exist. Mass can be created from nothing, time can be stopped, energy can be destroyed. Everything you know about the physical world dies around the bane."

She stopped at a holographic projector and began to type out commands as she spoke. "We knew very little about how the bane works, neither did the forerunners. What we did know, was that the bane first needed a cultural template to begin it's invasion." A holographic menu bloomed over the projector and Jane began to scroll through it until she picked a video to play. "This was the first recorded instance of the bane. We unlocked a secured room on the first halo ring. What you will see is one of the Bane's "Spawn" latch onto one of the grunts, where it will then assimilate it's culture."

Jane played the video and it showed a squad of grunts and its sanghieli leader enter a room not unlike the one that held the flood, only there were masterious dish-shaped disks aimed at the center, where there was a floating orb of light. One of the grunts got excited by the light and moved closer, ignoring it's leader's instructions to stay put. Suddenly the orb of light flew at the grunt and entered it's body. What happened next made the entire group watching the video gasp. The grunt's eyes turned a bright purple and it walked up to the sangheili that was yelling at it and started to hump his leg. At the same time, the eyes of the grunts around the group also turned purple, and they began to furiously mate with eachother. The sanghieli tried to stop the grunts, he threw the one off his leg and barked an order, but to no avail.

Suddenly the door opened and more purple-eyed grunts swarmed in and began to overwhelm the elite. They stripped off his armor and began to rape him to death. After that, they began to have a massive orgy. Some grunts immediately began to give birth to new offspring, a feat that should have been impossible. The newly spawned grunts already had armor and they began to grow to adult size within minutes."The unggoy culture has always been known for their rapid ability to repopulate. The bane used this as a template for it's manifestation." Jane said.

She selected another video and went on. "But the manifestation did not only infect grunts, it infected elites, the kigyar, our engineers, the brutes and even the hunters. The hunters would immediately stop fighting and start rolling on the ground in ecstacy as all the worms in their bodies started.....mating with eachother. But it did not stop with organics. The bane also corrupted our machines. This video was taken from one of our external sensors." Jane started the video. It depicted a majestic covenant fleet of battlecruisers hovering in formation. But suddenly an explosion bloomed like a flower on one of the ships, and purple tentacles that looked like they were made of the same material as the ship shot from the explosion and wrapped themselves around one of the other ships. The corrupted cruiser began to thrust with its plasma cannon into the other chip. More explosions took place and the other ship began to break in half.

Orbs began to come out of both ships. They were identical to the one that infected the grunt, but much larger in size. Soon the entire fleet became a macabre cluster of ships having orgies. Vien was appalled, it made no sense. He did not remember anything like this, what was Jane up to? This must be some sort of trick he thought. But he never knew Jane to lie. "Our fleet was destroyed" she continued, "But we were not the only culture the bane infected. When a human group led by Seargeant Johnson encountered the bane, they were over-run by anthropomorphic watermelons and fried chicken."

"The forerunners recognized that the bane needed a culture to thrive. So they constructed the rings to wipe out all cultures that existed, in hopes that the bane would 'starve'. They did this by exterminating all sentient life with one massive wave of energy. Then they sent out another wave that wiped out all memory, both digital and biological. Any organisms that may have survived the rings' first blast were wiped clean of any culture, just to ensure the bane's destruction." Jane said.

"In our universe, we did not win against the bane, there were no happy endings like the one your bungie studios created. Humans, the covenant, all that remained of us banded together to fight the bane, but we were overwhelmed." She continued with a solemn tone to her voice. She selected another video "This is the last thing I recorded  before I found myself waking in your world. Vien and I were part of the group that uncovered the forerunner artifact in Africa. Unlike the events depicted in your video games, we never figured out how to activate it. It activated itself when the bane attacked earth."

The video played and the sounds of battle screamed out of the projection. The camera was from Jane's visor, but it was shaky. Vien saw himself help Jane off the ground. He shouted something to Jane, and she looked up. The sky was filled with tentacles, destruction rained down upon the earth in the form of giant disembodied breasts and soda products. Giant eyeballs began to open in the sky and the ground under Jane began to turn into chocolate. Suddenly blue orbs identical to the portal depicted in halo 3, but smaller in size began to materialize in the air around them. Elites and humans got sucked into them. Vien noticed he was holding something in his other arm, the artifact identical to the one he had when he was captured by the government.

They raced for a large covenant ship that was still intact when a giant snarling chicken wing stepped in front of their path. Vien shouted "GO KIALA! I WILL HOLD HIM OFF!" a sword flashed to life and Vien fought the absurd monstrosity. Jane rushed for the ship, dodging the mysterious blue orbs that seemed to materialize all around her. Jane pressed a button on her wrist and the door the the ship opened. She stepped inside and turned around and saw Vien running towards her, the dead steaming body of the chicken wing on the ground behind him, bleeding barbecue sauce. Just before Vien reached the ship, a huge blue orb materialized behind him, sucking him into it. Jane screamed and dove after Vien. The video cut off just as she entered its event horizon.

"We could not fight the bane. None of our weapons did any permenant damage. The best we could do was develop a device that froze them in place temporarily, but they always broke through the mute. I awoke sometime later in a cold bitter place. Vien was nowhere in sight. My ship had been sucked into one of those portals, the same one that took Vien. I later learned that I had arrived in the land you call Antartica and Vien had appeared above area 51. Area 51. I only found out he had made it after he escaped from that place, but he wasn't the same. I had assumed his weakened spirit and odd behavior was because he was defeated. But it appears he does not remember anything. The bane destroyed our universe, and now it is here to destroy yours." Jane finished.

The group was silent. Vien contemplated everything he had just heard. It made no sense he did not remember any of it...except for the part where he awoke above area 51. He remembered materializing and falling, and landing on a strange flying machine called a helicopter. He remembered being interrogated about what he was, where he came from. He had tried to explain the events that had occured. For years, he had provided the government with details of his culture, had helped them develop various technologies. Then he used the artifact to escape. But then another fog came over Vien's mind. He couldn't remember how he escaped, only that the artifact somehow aided him. Suddenly the entire ship rumbled. An earthquake shook the ground underneath the group and there was a crash from outside. Jane immediately activated all the external sensors and displayed them on the hologram. Outside was a large cave, fitted with a bunch of machines and covenant computers. In the wall of a cave, there had opened a large hole, as if something had burst through it. "By the prophets," Vien uttered, "What has happened?"  "I don't know," said Camnator, who was suddenly smiling. "But somehow, I know it's friendly. It's....calling us."

Chapter 12: High Mind

Despite Camnator's assurances that whatever force broke through the wall was a benevolent one, the group still used caution when they exited the ship. He felt a very calm, friendly aura emanating from the hole. Calm, and powerful...yet strangely familiar. It seemed to call out to him, beckoning him to come to it.  "Come on guys, it's calling us." he said, walking towards the wall. But Jane picked him up by the scruff and he kicked his legs in the air. "You stay here. Who knows what dangers await. It may be a spawn of the bane." she warned. "But we must know what caused this. If we will proceed, we must do so with vigilance. But before we do anything," she turned to Vien. "VIEN! PUT ON SOME CLOTHES!!!!" she shouted at the thong-wearing sangheili.

"Woman, you forget I do not have any clothes with me except for these." Vien replied. "Go to my quarters, open the blue storage. One of the old suits I made for you is in there. GO!" Jane barked. Vien did as he was told and walked off muttering something. "Are you fucking serious?!?" Verbatim began to pout, "Whatever caused that is going to kill us all and you want to go investigate it? I don't know if you've noticed, but I HAVE NO ARMOR! I DO NOT KNOW HOW TO FIGHT! THE LAST THING I WANT IS TO GO IN THERE!"  "Verby," Camnator said "Trust me, nothing in there is going to harm us, I can feel it. This may help us in our fight to save humanity. You seriously need to get that stick out of your ass." "YOU ARE HIGH AS HELL! WHY WOULD I LISTEN TO YOU? AND SCREW HUMANITY!!!" Verbatim screamed. "Then stay here with John Cena." Jane said nonchalantly, "He will take good care of you."

Verbatim took a look behind him and saw the fleshy abomination grin at him and he jumped. "....fine...I'll come." he said, submitting. A few minutes later, Vien returned. "Woman, what kind of armor is this?" he said, wearing what appeared to be a large leather suit with chain links located on a various places. "That" Jane said, rather amused, "Is your old discipline suit. Remember when you liked strict discipline?" Vien huffed then he followed the group into the hole.

Jane activated a light crystal which revealed a number of green vines lining the wall of the tunnel. Camnator could see a beautiful aura coursing through the vines, it was a pure essence of truth and it was telling him to follow the tunnel. Suddenly, several huge tentacle-like vines flew out of the darkness and snatched up the party. Jane swore and tried to withdraw her sword, but her arms were pinned to her sides, Vien uttered a few uncharacteristic obscenities as well. Camnator did nothing, he knew these vines were friendly. He thought he heard a woman scream, but then he realized it was just Verbatim. The tentacles pulled the party into the darkness with incredible speed But somehow it was quiet. There was no air rushing past their ears. But the wall of the tunnel was a blur. They must have been traveling incredibly fast. Only 5 minutes passed and the vines slowed down, came to a halt and dropped them on soft ground.

They landed in a large chasm, illuminated from the ceiling with a green ethereal glow. Camnator looked towards the center, where the source of the benevolent aura was and gasped. An impossibly large plant, probably 300 meters in height sat in the center of the chasm, its leaves constantly unfolding and blooming. Upon closer look, he saw that they were marijuana leaves. Hundreds of vines unfurrowed out of the mass and formed into a mouth. "WEELLLLCOMMEE CHILDREN!!!"  a booming voice echoed through the chamber. "I AM THE HIGH MIND, THE SOURCE OF ALL TRUTH, THE PLANT THAT BESTOWS CLARITY AMONG THOSE WHO ACCEPT MY GIFTS!"

"Whoa......" Camnator said out loud, feeling his pants become tight.  "I HAVE SPREAD MY ROOTS TO ALL THE ENDS OF THE WORLD TO BENEFIT THE GUESTS OF MY HOME, THIS PLANET YOU CALL EARTH, TO SHARE MY CLARITY AND LOVE OF LIFE! SADLY, THERE ARE THOSE OF YOU WHO CHOOSE LIES AND DECEIT OVER MY GIFT. AS SUCH, THERE ARE NOT PREPARED TO FIGHT THIS MONSTROSITY! THEY WILL BE CORRUPTED AND THEN DIE." reverberated the high mind.

I HAVE BROUGHT YOU HERE," the high mind continued, "BECAUSE THIS WORLD, MY WORLD, IS IN DANGER FROM AN ABOMINATION THAT THREATENS TO DESTROY US ALL! YOU ARE THE ONLY ONES WHO CAN SAVE IT....BUT FIRST...YOU NEED TO DISCOVER YOURSELVES." The creature raised a vine and pointed it at Camnator "YOU, WHO HAVE NOT DENIED MY GIFT, MUST DISCOVER YOUR TRUE POTENTIAL, INSTEAD OF IDLING BY AS GREATNESS PASSES YOU BY." another vine pointed at Vien "YOU, MUST TRAVEL BACK IN TIME THROUGH YOUR OWN HIDDEN MEMORIES AND REDISCOVER YOUR TRUE SELF, BUT IN DOING SO, YOU MUST OVERCOME PAIN ONCE FORGOTTEN!" and another vine pointed at Verbatim, who tried to scurry away, but a wall of vines blocked his passage. "YOU, MUST OVERCOME YOUR VISE, YOU MUST DISCOVER WHAT KEEPS YOU FROM HAPPINESS!" "Oh I can answer that," Camnator interrupted, "Verbatim has a stick up his ass. Everybody knows that." "AND YOU!" the high mind pointed at Jane "MUST BE CAUTIOUS, THAT CREATURE YOU LEFT BACK IN YOUR LAIR, IS AN AVATAR FOR DESTRUCTION. IT LUSTS FOR CHAOS...."

The chamber rumbled and the vines lined the the floor began to shift and curl, a mass of branches raised from the ground, intertwining and weaving into a large wooden bowl with a chamber beneath it that filled with water. Hundreds of tiny vines began to weave together to form 3 large hoses that extended from the chamber on the bottom. Camnator realized with amazement that the creature had made an organic hookah. Leaves bloomed above the bowl, broke off, and and fell into it. "COME NOW, MY GIFT TO YOU IS A JOURNEY OF TRUTH. BURN MY SHEDDINGS, TAKE THEM INTO YOU. REMEMBER." The 3 hoses extended towards Vien, Camnator, and Verbatim. Camnator happily accepted the hose, Vien looked at it for a moment, then took it in his hand. "Creature, how do we know we can trust you?" He said. "ARE YOU HARMED?" the high mind boomed "MY ARMS COULD HAVE CRUSHED YOU EASILY. YET ARE YOU HARMED?" "No, we are well." Vien apologized. Verbatim didn't take the hose. But a vine poked him in the back and he jumped. So he relented and took the hose into his hand.

A ball of vines curled over the top of the bowl, writhed and wove against each other with rapid friction until the cluster began to steam, smoke, until finally they combusted. "NOW BREATHE....AWAKEN.....REMEMBER!!!" the creature said. Vien, Camnator, and Verbatim breathed the smoke into their bodies. Verbatim immediately gagged and fell on the ground, and had a spasm. Vien pulled the hose out of his mouth, looked up at the ceiling with horror, as if he were seeing ghosts and shouted "NOOOOOOO!!!! MY SON!!!" Camnator didn't stop puffing. This was the breath of angels. He had never thought it was possible to get this high, it was an out of body experience. The world turned into a mass of colors and streams, but then rearranged itself into an image. He was looking down on the earth as if he were above it. At the same time, he was on it and in its streets, in its oceans, in its forests. It was beautiful.

But then...Camnator began to scream. He could see a plague expanding on the surface. Porch Lord had broken through his mute, the entire city of Seattle had turned into a jagged landscape of porches. Elsewhere, he saw that the 3 women and their slave had escaped. Jay was spouting bullshit everywhere and people believed it. They began to follow her, treating her like a goddess.  Rose started infecting people with her stupidity wherever she went. Cars crashed because people forgot to drive them, surgeons would use bandaids to seal incisions, construction workers cut holes around themselves and died,  politicians stayed the same. Shadows stood there and cut herself again and again and again, impossible torrents of her blood coursed throughout the cities. It was horrible.....too horrible to contemplate. Camnator begged the high mind to end it. "YOU MUST REMEMBER, FACE REALITY, STAY COHERENT! TO SAVE THE WORLD, YOU MUST KNOW ITS PLIGHT!"

Verbatim began to scream and Vien lashed out with his arms, as if he were trying to grab somebody or something. Jane withdrew her sword and threatened to burn the high mind to the ground. But hundreds of tendrils flew out of the ground and restrained her. "IF YOU WANT YOUR LOVER BACK, HE MUST ENDURE THIS, HE MUST REMEMBER!" Jane murmured, "It may destroy him...."

Chapter 13 - Vien Remembers

Vien felt like he was descending into a world of fog. At first he couldn't see anything, but then images and shapes floated past him, as if they were bubbles which contained hidden memories. He was looking for something but he didn't know what he was looking for. Why was he here? Where is this place? Vien vaguely remembered a large plant and he remembered inhaling a foul smoke. Memory....he was searching for memory...he didn't know why, but he knew he had to find it.

Suddenly, out of the fog came a blue gleaming light. Vien walked towards the light and saw the forerunner artifact. The same one that he had taken with him into this world, the same one that had helped him escape from the human government. He reached out towards the artifact but stopped when he began to hear screams. No...he began to remember screams, screams of somebody he once loved. Something told him he did not want to remember. "YOU MUST FACE YOUR PAST" a booming voice spoke inside his head, "IF YOU WANT TO SAVE THE FUTURE." Vien reached for the artifact again and touched it. The blue gleaming brightened until it burned away the fog.

The world became a blinding blue light that overwhelmed his vision. But as quickly as it came, it went, dematerializing until Vien felt solid ground beneath his feet. He recognized this place, it was sanghielios. His hearts jumped for joy when he saw a sanghieli youth running towards him with a practice sword. How could he forget about this child, his son, Valuken? Overwhelmed with joy, he ran towards his son to pick him up...but his son ran through him as if he didn't exist. Vien spun around and came face to face with himself, play fighting with his son, training him in the ways of the sword. He longed to hear his son's laughter again.

A chime rang through his head and the blue light took over the world. "NOOO!" Vien shouted, running towards the spot where his son was and reached out. But he touched nothing. The blue light dematerialized and he gasped. If he had not seen the remains of his residence, he would not have known this was sanghielios. The world had changed, the rocky plateau had turned into squirming gummy worms. Flying fried chicken rained destruction upon the world in the form of missile crumbs. Vien saw himself run out of the house with his son in his arms "HOLD ONTO ME!" he heard himself shout, "YOUR MOTHER IS WAITING FOR US!" He followed behind himself and watched as his past self dodged swarms of horny grunts, exploded the inflated heads of 6 breasted brutes with his plasma rifle, and jumped over huge mouths that opened up in the ground. He was headed for a gravity lift coming from a large battleship.

Vien's past self and his son entered the gravity lift and began to float upwards towards the ship. Flying horrors came at them, fried chicken, watermelon spawn, trash talking rocks with wings. But Vien shot through all of them with stunning accuracy. But just before he reached the top, a black disk materialized right over his son. Vien and his past self shouted with horror as tentacles reached out of the void and snatched his screaming son and pulled him out of existance. The black disk vanished. The blue light blinded the world again. This was too terrible. He had a son...and he let him be taken by the bane. Valuken was just inches away but Vien couldn't protect him. He was a failure.

The blue light dematerialized. Vien was with Jane....no...Kiala, his wife, trying to escape from the Bane's attack on Earth. The fabric of reality of crashing around them, but he had to get Kiala out of here....he did not want to lose her, he would have nothing left to live for. He watched as an observer, seeing himself fight off a Chicken wing as Kiala boarded the ship. Blue orbs were materializing all around him, sucking everything in into their depths that wasn't the bane. He had defeated the monster and almost made it to the ship, his hands extended to Kiala, when a monstrous blue orb appeared behind him. It was larger than even the ship Kiala stood in. Vien watched as the orb sucked his past self into it. He was tumbling through a dark void where there was no sound, no sight, no sound. He was the only thing that existed in that world. But the the dark void suddenly burned away, revealing a bright desert below him. He was falling...falling...until he crashed against a strange flying machine, causing it to spiral out of control and crash into the desert.

The blue light took over the world again. When it dematerialized, Vien saw himself sitting in a room, much skinnier, food deprived. He had spent years being interrogated by the government, freely giving out all he knew about where he came from, everything he knew about how his technology worked. Now he had nothing else to give. His son was dead, Kiala was gone, and his universe was probably destroyed by now. Vien remembered how he had felt sitting there, staring at nothing. He wanted to get out and see the world that still lived, but they never let him. He was their prisoner, being kept in that room, forced to live with his memories, memories that would haunt him throughout the day and throughout the night.

That very night when he had fallen asleep, he reached out...to something. He wanted nothing more than to forget....forget....forget. A chime resounded and began to reverberate through the cell...it got louder and louder. The wall  began to glow ,awakening Vien from his slumber. He got up and looked at it. The artifact began to phase through the wall, emanating an etheral blue light. He reached out and touched it. A blue but silent shockwave rippled throughout the entire facility, wiping all computers of anything related to Vien. A second shockwave disabled the security locks on Vien's cell. The door opened and he was free to go. Vien made his escape and fought past all the confused guards. He found his stash of weapons and took them with him. Vien stole one of the human vehicles and exited the facility. Just then, another wave rippled through the station and wiped out all biological memory of Vien and anything related to him from the humans. When it struck him, he had forgotten about his son, he had forgotten about the fate of the universe. He wondered for years and years, wearing his holosuit disguise, as something told him he should remain hidden.

Vien had been tracked down by Kiala who was in disguise, who told him to call her Jane. She tried to get into a relationship with him, but he was never interested, much to her anger. Eventually, he encountered Maluki and they both fell in love. Maluki's origins were always a mystery, but he had made Vien happier than he had every been. But now, Vien knew the truth of the fate of his universe, he remembered his loss. But now, Kiala was with him, she was alive and he loved her, the mother of his offspring. Still....the memory of his son tore him apart. A fog overtook his vision.

"Ahhh, I see." the deep booming voice rang through his head, but it was softer now. "YOU HAVE SUFFERED A TERRIBLE TERRIBLE LOSS. YOUR LOVE FOR YOUR SEEDLING IS TANGIBLE, THE MEMORY OF HIS AURA STILL LINGERS AROUND YOURS! HE SHALL ALWAYS BE BONDED WITH YOU, EVEN IN DEATH. BUT WAIT.....I AM DETECTING AN IDENTICLE AURA....IN THIS WORLD. YOUR SON....YES, HE IS ALIVE!" Vien's hearts jumped for joy. He immediately called out "WHERE?! WHERE IS VALUKEN!?" "HE IS ON THIS EARTH AND HE IS LOOKING FOR YOU. HE HAS KNOW IDEA WHO YOU ARE, BUT HE LOVES YOU. YOU WILL SEE HIM SOON...BUT BE WARNED, YOU HAVE MET HIM BEFORE...BUT YOU DID NOT RECOGNIZE HIM, NOR HE YOU. HE HAS BEEN CHANGED BY THE BANE! HE NO LONGER SHARES YOUR IMAGE. I SHALL SHOW YOU HIM, BUT BE WARNED, YOU MAY FEEL MORE DESPAIR AFTER SEEING THE TRUTH OF YOUR SON'S FATE!" 

Vien said "I do not care...I want to see my son. Show me him, it's been too long." "AS YOU WISH...." the high mind said. The fog cleared, it revealed a world of porches and destruction. A figure was flying through the air, tentacles burst up from the ground and tried to snatch it. But the flying figure did a few barrel rolls and shot pink light out of his tail tip, slicing right through the tentacles with ease. Vien gasped and sank to his knees in shame. He recognized that slender blue body, that flamboyant green mane, those large majestic wings. It was none other than his husband, Maluki.
