Chyribdys was sitting where his spire once stood, it was slowly growing back to it's normal size, but now it was only the size of a small tree, and he didn't have the time to keep speeding up the growth. Vespa flew next to him, her body now the size of a teenager, her skin still pink. She looked at Chyribdys with worry. "Chy Chy, please don't tell me you're thinking on taking him on alone. You're not at full power yet, he'll kill you. This world can't lose you." she said. Chyribdys looked at her, concerned for her now that she was in a more vulnerable state. He hugged her in a gentle embrace, then gently kissed her lips, his arms trembling as he did so. Vespa was surprised that he did such a thing, after all the time they spent together as friends, why would he kiss her so gently, yet so fearfully? He broke the kiss, his eyes covered by his hair, and flew up at hypersonic speed. Vespa then understood what he was doing, and flew the same way as fast as she could. She then saw a massive portal open up, and Chyribdys was going inside of it like a speeding bullet, so she followed him in as well.
His eyes shimmered a steaming red in the darkness he was in, steam billowed from his mouth like he was a living sauna. He sniffed the air, and his gaze became sharp enough to cut stone as he charged forward at breakneck speed. Vespa saw Chyribdys run off like a wild beast, and went after him. She may not be extremely strong, but she was incredibly fast as she seemed to barely take steps while she sped after the dragon man. Chyribdys didn't seem to tire or slow down, his claws sharpening as he ran. Just then, a golem appeared out of the walls around him, intent on capture, but it was swiftly sliced into clean pieces by Chyribdys's claws like he was a solid buzzsaw. Vespa never seen him be so ruthless, but she kept after him while he kept slicing through monsters. He then activated his Etherena, moving even faster as he began to spin in the air like a drill and drilled his way through monsters as he broke through a gate. He then looked up at someone, wearing a fancy suit and tie. His appearance was that of a butler, but with a massive scar running across his face. "Ah. The lizard who plays deity. Have you come back to pledge loyalty to me once more?" the man asked. Chyribdys growled, clearly beyond the point of anger at this man. Vespa came in, and was shocked to see the man sitting there. "And the bug. I despise insects." the man said before flicking something near her face, a fork, before it faded into nothing. She was stunned in place, unable to speak or react as her cheek bled. She masked her fear with anger as she charged at him, her claws out and sharpened as she slashed for his face, but it was blocked with a small spoon. Chyribdys then charged in as well, aiming for his exposed side, but he maneuvered the spoon so the other side stopped his claws, then he blasted them both away with a powerful invisible force. They both left craters in the walls, unable to move since the blast was still rippling within their bodies. Chyribdys forced himself to get up, superheating his body to heat his blood and muscles, darting off like a meteor, bouncing off the walls to gain momentum and then attack from the back. The man didn't say anything as he tapped the ground with the tip of his shoe, and Chyribdys was violently slammed to the ground like he had been hit with a wrecking ball from orbit, and then he began to ride on his head as he slid to the wall he leapt from. He yawned, looking bored as he went to sit down again. Vespa was frozen with absolute terror, just how long was he waiting for this moment? How much stronger were these Traitors, and how long could they remain contained if they took down Chyribdys with barely any effort? Sweat dripped down her face as she bit her lip hard enough to draw blood, forcing herself to feel pain as she finally jumped up and grabbed Chyribdys to escape. She wrapped him in steel like webbing, dragging Chyribdys out of the room as the man just followed with his eyes, not seeming interested at all. "Such foolishness." he said, closing his eyes to sleep as Vespa exited a portal into the streets of Thelema. She was barely able to move anymore, the internal damage overriding her pain negation, yet she tried crawling to her feet.
Someone walked towards them, however Vespa could barely see them. All she saw was someone with pale skin, sections of their body missing, and horns engulfed in blue flames. She was unable to ask for help before she fell unconscious, so the person helped get her and Chyribdys out of the street and towards a hospital. Morgan got a call from the hospital, and rushed over to see if Vespa and Chyribdys were okay. She ran in, a horrified look pasted on her face as she saw the state they were in. Chyribdys was worse than Vespa, his head gushing blood that was floating around him to be put back, multiple bones broken, and he was temporarily blind. Morgan could only feel rage, gripping her fist so tight it bled, her pupils glowing red and her teeth grinding together so much it began to make sparks. Just then, the person that brought them tapped her shoulder, prompting her to calm down. She looked at them, seeing that it was an Eldritch Being. They had skin so pale they looked like a ghost, shaggy pink hair, a chunk missing from their left side that looked like it was a pair of shark jaws, and didn't seem to need clothes. "Hey, I know you're mad. But if you go after the person that did this, you're going to die. You need to be stronger for what's coming. Lucky for you and your team of bad bitches, I can assist. But that would mean abandoning a "normal form" concept from now on. You'll become everything and nothing. You up for that, Morgan le Fey?" they asked. Morgan looked at Vespa, seeing she was crying while asleep, and nodded as she held her hand. Vespa squeezed subconsciously, making Morgan slightly smile as she went out of the room. The being clapped like a little kid and teleported her to Merlin's house, then to Rikusa, Shikom, and then G. After gathering them all, they were in some sort of strange space. It was like an enchanted forest, similar to Alice in Wonderland, but more real. "What in the hell is this? And who in the hell is that?" G asked. The being drew a circle around them all, then began to chant in an unknown language. The sun began to glow brightly, and then suddenly disappear into the being's hands. They gave an eerie smile as they swallowed it, igniting violently into an avatar of solar energy. "Behold, Cthuga of the Old Ones. Power is what you need, and power is what you shall obtain. For if you do not obtain this, death is what awaits at the threshold of the Dreamlands." he said as everyone looked in shock. An actual Eldritch God is about to offer a ritual to make them stronger, but to what end? Why them? What made these misfit horny teenagers special? Merlin stood up. "Why? Why give us a power we never asked for? What makes us special to you?" he asked. He expected to be punched into the void of nothingness, but Cthuga showed a picture of Merlin's parents along with Morgan's, G's, Shikom's, and Rikusa's. "You all remind me of your parents, headstrong and ready for battle. I came to so many with this offer, and only they had the heart to take it and succeed where others had failed. You all show incredible promise. I shall not allow you to fail in this endeavor." he said. Merlin looked at the picture, and began to feel a small warmth in his chest. Cthuga's smile widened as he went into the air, shining like a miniature sun. "Now, let us begin, Young Saints."
