“Oh! Sounds exciting,” Darkness playfully noted, though there was no urgency at all in her voice.
In his pants, Rick felt his dick was now full of blood and pulsating, and once again, he felt himself fighting in his mind to maintain his focus. As he contemplated their desperate situation and how to get out of it, he had to fight between those thoughts with images of him sinking his stiff pole deep into Darkness greedy cunt.
“Can... Can you get us out of here?!” Rick immediately asked. “Save us?”
“I see you still have the genie. Do you have the bottle?” Darkness calmly asked.
“Yes, but she is still drugged up. I'm honestly not sure how much she can help us right now...?”
“Where is the bottle?” Darkness cut him short.
“In my bag, but...”
“Let me see it,” Darkness immediately instructed, her voice changing and a hint of urgency in it now.
“Can you cure her, wake her, with the bottle?” Rick rambled, instantly shedding his backpack and opening it up to retrieve the distinctive bottle.
“Yes.”
“Awesome! I knew it!” Rick happily exclaimed, suddenly hearing shotgun blasts again and more cries of foreign voices.
“Whatever you need to do, hurry it up, Rick!” shouted Asha outside the cabin. “We have a second grappling hook now attached to the ship.”
Seizing the neck of the blue bottle, Rick pulled it out of his bag with a smile. Holding it up with a trembling hand, Rick looked to the intoxicating silhouette in the shadows nearby.
“What do I need to do? Open the bottle or...?”
“Give it to me,” Darkness simply instructed.
Hearing the chaos and commotion just outside the cabin and knowing his friends were in a fight for their lives only a few feet away, Rick knew they didn't have a lot of time to mince words, and he took two eager step towards Darkness in order to follow her instructions. Then, a warning shot of a thought suddenly sparked through his mind like a lightning bolt through the heavens, and Rick abruptly came to a halt and perked a skeptical eyebrow, a chill suddenly running down his spine.
“Wait! Wait... Wait a minute! You... You're trying to trick me. If you have the bottle...?”
“Yes! Then I will be the master of the djinn,” Darkness calmly finished for him.
“Why? Why are you doing this? Help me get out of this situation?” Rick asked, somewhat at a loss and more than a little confused.
“Why should I?” Darkness plainly countered, her voice seductive once more.
“Because... I... I helped you, and you said you'd help... me...” Rick stuttered, but he suddenly felt a sinking feeling in the pit of his gut.
“Oh, I suppose I'm supposed to honor my word to you, is that it?” Darkness teased.
Remembering then that he still knew her true name, Rick realized that Darkness was trying to pull a fast one on him, but he had an ace up his sleeve he hadn't used yet. Cocking a steady eyebrow, Rick determined if she wouldn't help him willingly, then he'd force her to.
“I know your true name, Darkness. You will help me, damn it!” Rick challenged, his tone changing and taking on a harder edge.
“Oh, will I, now?” Darkness playfully asked, and then she began a wicked, hateful laugh.
At the same time she started laughing, Rick heard a lot more commotion on the deck just outside the cabin, and the ship itself rocked under some kind of fire it was taking. He could hear Asha shouting and fighting, Kitty firing away with his shotgun, and the heavy footsteps of the kull racing over the deck. At Darkness' words though, Rick suddenly felt sick to his stomach and the blood ran from his face. Knowing he had no time to play with her, Rick then played the only card he had left.
“I command you, Iztella Bhuta, to help me and my friends out of this situation... now!” Rick demanded, using her true name.
“Did you really think, mortal, that I would really give you my true name?” Darkness amusingly asked, and then she laughed again, giddy with joy at her deceit.
“Fuck...!” Rick breathed, suddenly realizing all at once that he had been suckered and had fallen right into Darkness plot all along.
He now realized, she had not only used him as an instrument to free her and her kin, but all along, she had plotted to take Jizzy for herself. Rick had no idea what she planned to do with Jizzy, but he inwardly cursed himself a fool for being so naive to ever believe a word she had said.
“That's right! Oh, it is so sweet to watch mortals writhe when they realized they've really fucked up. How is that tingling sensation working out for you? You still feel clever, mortal? Do you still feel like you've got one over on me?” Darkness teased, and then she lifted her shadowy clawed hand towards him. “Now, give me that bottle!”
“No!” Rick immediately breathed in horror, clutching the bottle protectively to his chest.
At that moment, Rick just wanted to turn and run, but he curiously found that his feet wouldn't cooperate with the command. In fact, he now found that he was completely frozen in place and couldn't move at all.
“Give it to me, now!” Darkness demanded, and she called with her dark fingers for him to approach her.
As if his body was no longer under his control, Rick found himself suddenly stumbling forward towards the intoxicating shadow in the corner of the room.
“No!” Rick groaned out between grit teeth, unable to stop himself.
As he stumbled slowly towards her, step by agonizing step, Darkness continued to mock him.
“That's right, stupid mortal. Bring me that bottle, and once I'm master of this whore djinn, I will put out every star in the entire universe, in every dimension, snuff out every single light in creation, and my brethren and I will turn a hell into god's most precious prize! Not only that, but I will unseat the great rebel Satan myself, and become god of all that exists!”
“I... won't... let... you...!” Rick stuttered, fighting each painful step towards the terrible demon.
“Let me?! You cannot stop me! You have been nothing but my lackey from the start and will burn in hell for eternity for your ignorance. But first, I will flay your flesh from your body piece by bloody piece, strip by bloody strip. I will pluck your eyes from your skull and feed them to my hungry cunt. I will consume your mortal flesh bit by tiny bit, and you will beg me for relief before it is all over! You will beg me to die! And once I bore of you and grant you that little bit of relief, your soul will eternally burn for your arrogance, and forever your soul's voice shall lament your fool decision!”
“I... won't... let...!” Rick stuttered and resisted the best he could, but it was too late.
The next heartbeat, Rick was standing right in front of the terrible demon quivering with frustration, and she effortlessly plucked the bottle from his open hands with two fingers.
“Now! On your knees and grovel, slave!” commanded Darkness, pointing at him with her finger.
Instantly, Rick fell before her beautiful shadow onto his knees, and his body continued to tremor as he fought to master it. Suddenly, working that stupid job at the investment company he hated for the rest of his life didn't seem like such a bad trade-off. After all, look what he has managed to do trying to be a hero.
“Grovel!” Darkness demanded.
Unable to withstand the force of her words, Rick bowed his head low to her shadowy feet and with trembling lips kissed the oily flesh of her toes. Though he fought every second to master himself, his muscles did not seem to obey his brain anymore but instead were commanded wholly by Darkness.
“Good! Good! Get used to that position, mortal. It is your rightful place,” Darkness chuckled, reveling in her power.
Outside the cabin, Rick could hear Asha and Kitty both crying out desperately, and though his shotgun continued to fire away, there seemed to be more voices he was unfamiliar with now on-board the ship and both his friends voices were now far away. At that moment, all seemed lost and deep down inside, Rick felt wholly foolish and completely without hope all at the same time. He knew quite clearly that he had brought this hell not only upon himself, but more tragically, he had brought it on all of existence. He wasn't only a fool, he was the biggest fool of all of god's creations.
“Now, rise Jizabel! I command you to rise!” Darkness demanded, turning her attention to the nearby bed and gesturing at the genie with one hand while holding the bottle in the other.
On the bed nearby, Rick saw out of the corner of his eye, Jizzy suddenly take in a long deep breath, as if she had been holding her breath underwater for hours. Then, her pretty blue eyes fluttered open, and she shot up on her elbows, somewhat disoriented and confused.
“Rise, Jizabel...” Darkness commanded again. “... and recognize your
new
master!”
Leaning up in the bed, still bloodied, bruised, and groggy headed, Jizzy first looked to Rick, still helplessly kissing Darkness' feet, and then her eyes slowly drifted up to the hand of the devil holding her bottle and the fiery eyes staring back at her from the shadows.
“He is no longer your master. I have the bottle now! Recognize me, slave!” Darkness commanded, pointing at the naked genie.
Her eyes suddenly bulging, Jizzy immediately shot up, nodded her head, and in an instant, she disappeared and reappeared before the demon dressed once again in her royal purple and gold genie outfit, completely healed, and fully at attention. Any of the effects of the drugs she had been given by the seers was now gone, and for the first time, Rick saw that she was fully awake and aware of her surroundings.
“Good day, Master! What is it that I can do for you?” Jizzy asked, though she didn't appear happy and was rather official with the demon.
“Don't... listen to her!” Rick managed between grit teeth as sweat freely dripped down his brow.
“
You
... are no longer her master!” barked Darkness.
“Fuck you!” Rick barely managed to growl back, his lips still on her toes.
“Foolish mortal!” shouted Darkness, reaching down and seizing him around the throat with her free hand.
Lifted clean off his feet in a heartbeat, Rick suddenly gasped for air as Darkness choked him and held him suspended off the floor of the cabin.
“Now, you won't be so talkative as you're gasping for air,” Darkness mocked him, continuing to choke him.
As this was all happening, Jizzy watched with a pathetic expression on her pretty face and unable to do anything at all.
“Please, don't kill him,” Jizzy then begged.
As Rick choked and struggled for breath, his eyes wandered over to the pretty genie, and he saw her staring up at him with a pitiful expression on her face. Rick realized at that moment, the simple request she had just made to spare his life was the only thing she could really do. Closing his eyes then, Rick searched for anything, anything at all that could help him out of this terrible situation he had got himself into. He knew for a fact that he had created all this trouble all on his own, and he needed to scramble to find any way to get himself out of it. He knew he wasn't only responsible for himself either, but he was responsible for the entire universe. As he groped for answers and fought through the chaos of his thoughts, all the while struggling for breath, Darkness turned to Jizzy.
“
He
... is not your concern anymore, and I will do what I want with him, just as I will do what I want with you. You understand me?! You should worry less about him, and worry more about what I am going to do to you once you fulfill my wishes!”
“Yes, Master. Forgive me. What can I do for you?” Jizzy heartlessly replied.
“Now, I want you to make a wish that will make
all
the stars of every...”
