Tama

  I swiped at the area I felt coldest and made contact with something. A large skeletal figure almost ten feet tall suddenly appeared floating over the battlefield. He had deep glowing blue eye sockets and was wearing a black robe that covered his entire figure. All that was visible was his fingers and his skull.

  I had hit his head directly, and it had done nothing. "NYA, TAMA WILL KILL YOU!" I screamed and swung Serenity down again and again. The Lich didn't move. After a moment, a horrible screeching sound came from him. I slowly realized he was laughing at me!

  The Lich's hand suddenly rose up, and I blinked out of the way right as another icicle almost hit me. It flew down and hit another adventurer. They died instantly. Another adventurer quickly ran up and eviscerated the corpse before it could be raised.

  "Cease your foolish prattle, little kitten. Join your sensei in undeath. Know your place." The Lich's voice was deafening and I screeched at him. I threw my dagger, which bounced harmlessly off before I started firing water daggers at him. Each one did almost nothing, turning to ice then crumbling before even reaching him.

  I was running out of ideas, then I heard a howl and grinned. "Tama thinks you need to pay more attention to your surroundings!" I said gleefully.

  The Lich stared at me for a moment before speaking. "Oh? And why is..." Before he could finish, the Annihilator took the Lich entirely into his mouth like a chew toy and began chewing, before spitting him out on the dirt. The second head howled and the Lich was forced deeper into the ground. Then the beam hit him.

  My eyes widened in surprisewas it really working?! Then the Lich rose from the ground, his robes now tattered in areas but still mostly intact. "Foolish little beast, know your betters," he said. Raising his hand, he fired an icicle, which bounced off the Annihilator.

  The large three-headed wolf chomped down on the Lich again and began chewing harder before swallowing. After that, everything went silent for a moment.

  I looked on in shock... had it been that easy after everything? Then the large wolf began to moan, then gurgled, and after a moment, exploded into a thousand pieces of blood and gore, spraying everywhere.

  I watched in horror, instinctively dodging the Annihilator's pieces. The Lich came out, he was now robe-less. He looked directly at me. "Now kitten, where were we?"

  Suddenly a dark purple ball slammed into the Lich and ate right through him, going out the other side. It left nothing where it touched. A moment later the right rib cage was just... gone.

  "I believe, bonehead, that we were killing you and your trash army," Saki said as she stood on the wall of Drestor. When had she gotten there? I was really perceptive and I hadn't seen her get there at all.

  The Lich's eyes left me and turned to Saki. "I am pretty sure I remember killing you, little Foxkin. It seems it's hard to keep a pest down."

  Saki smirked back at the Lich and said, "Seems you missed a spot, maybe you're just worse at your job than you thought!"

  An icicle left the Lich and fired at Saki. I moved to stop it but it was too fast for me. Except, the icicle went straight through Saki like she wasn't there. I frowned for a moment before realization hit me. I turned back to the Lich and blinked to his face, swinging Serenity down. "Nya! You can't hurt, Tama. She is invincible!"

  "Worthless little kitten, you should know by now your attacks do nothing," the Lich said, though his tone had shifted ever so slightly. My smile widened as I continued to hit him repeatedly. He started to block me. I knew at the moment it was happening and renewed my attacks.

  You might be reading a pirated copy. Look for the official release to support the author.

  I blinked backwards right as a large on-fire boulder hit the Lich dead on. It seemingly did nothing but break on his body, but for the briefest moment I saw a blue thing that covered his body as it flickered and cracked slightly.

  Then he grabbed me. It was so fast, I didn't have time to dodge. Okay, I did have time to dodge, but I let him so I could wail on him more. I was so close to breaking the blue thingy.

  Then he spoke loudly. "Enough is enough, little kitten. The three of us are going to have a little chat." A blue ball surrounded us and I pulled free of his grasp, but couldn't blink before everything around us vanished.

  We appeared and I instantly blinked away from him over eighty feet before looking around. We seemed to be in a large deserted area to the east of Drestor. I knew this place because I ran through it a few times waiting for the days it took Saki to find me.

  To my right was Saki. She seemed surprised but quickly schooled her face and looked at me before nodding.

  In front of us was the Lich. He held a large staff in his hand and was channeling something into the blue orb on the tip. I pushed water into my blade and fired a water slice at the Lich. As expected, it froze before it reached him and fell harmlessly to the ground. I winced, but I had been expecting that.

  Trevor

  I stood in the small dark room, only a single candle on the table next to me as I read the book. It was a simple book, despite its legendary title. The Necronomicon glowed a gentle green as I flipped its pages eagerly. One day, I would be a powerful Lich.

  The door behind me opened and I heard footsteps approaching me. A voice spoke behind me. "How is the study going, Trevor? Do you think you will be able to do it?" The voice was soft and soothing.

  I rolled my eyes at her charm attempt. "Yes, Sarah, I will. But you aren't here for that, are you?"

  The purple-haired demon queen shifted around to the side and smirked at him with her vibrant purple eyes, so full of life and desire... so... disgusting. "I am genuinely interested," she said as she tiptoed her finger up my arm. I held back a shiver and smiled. Soon, I would be something more and she would not touch me like this.

  She was so young and vibrant, it made me sick. I offered her a path to undeath, but she insisted on remaining alive in that... that disgusting form.

  "But, I suppose there is no use in hiding why I am here, Trevor," she said with a soft voice. I sighed in resignation as I felt my control over my own body fade. I walked over to my bed, dreading what happened next. As I removed my clothes and laid down, Sarah walked over to me and looked down with a gleam in her eyes.

  I wanted to scream at her, but she had gotten me the book. This was a small price to pay to appease the childish woman. Even if she wouldn't let me move my own body during the act.

  She climbed on top of me and smiled down at me. "Ready?" she asked with a smile. I couldn't respond, but she controlled my mouth. "Yes, my love, I cannot wait to give my body to you," my mouth said. It sounded like something from a terrible erotic novel.

  She leaned in and kissed me. One day, all would be undead, and this worthless woman would be gone forever, or perhaps in a more fitting form. For now, I simply allowed her to do as she wished.

  She was shorter this time, finishing quickly before getting bored. Good. I climbed out of my bed after regaining control of my body. She winked at me and I held in a disgusted shiver. Even if she was undead, she looked like a damn child. It was gross. I smiled and nodded to her politely even as I grabbed my underwear and robes from the ground.

  I turned to walk back to my book when her arms wrapped around me. She pulled me down to my knees and whispered quietly in my ear. "Just know, little Trevor, you exist at my whims. Your body belongs to me. Becoming a Lich will not free you. It will only remove you as my sex toy." As she said this, a sharp stabbing pain as she brought a single sharp fingernail down my front, leaving a deep cut.

  She kissed me on the cheek and reached down. I felt as she grabbed me down there and gently nibbled my ear. Then she was gone, leaving an enlarged cut in my chest. I fell to my knees and sobbed. If I were undead, I would not feel so much pain.

  One day, that woman would die, and if I had any say in it, I would do it myself.
