Bad moon Rising-2

Athena/Andrea’s part…

Rick who I’d been undercover with for awhile now and had even had sex with and slept with, who had found out about there being real para-normal forces out there in the world and that I am a goddess.

Was kissing me…

He’s never kissed me like this before; on the job he was never this good. I’ve got the bible still in my hands and he’s kissing me. His tongue is playing naughty things with mine and he’s kissing me like he used to study scrolls with Venus.

“R...Rick?” I manage to gasp out when he breaks the kiss. “Whatthehell!?”

“Don’t you mean what the Hades?”

“What are you doing?”

“It’s called kissing Andrea.” I give him my don’t be an idiot look.

“I know that Rick but why are you kissing me, the case is tanked and you know both who and what I am and a whole lot more and you come in here and dare to kiss me?”

“Seemed like a good idea at the time, with everything in my world as I knew tossed on its ass and a war that I have no idea how to understand is about to start and thinking things over and after having a good long talk with Mr. Jonathan Walker I decided that I needed to actually open up and come here and kiss the bravest, hottest and most beautiful woman I know, ever known.”

“You’re Drunk.”

“He smiles at me and does that forefinger almost touching his thumb gesture. “Just a bit.”

Okay, I’m kinda mad and hurt at him kissing me like that when he’s drunk. It kind of both put me off because I only drink infrequently and the whole thing of him needing to get drunk to kiss me.

“I hate it when you get that look in your eyes.” He says staring right at me.

“What?”

“That hurt, angry, alone in a crowded room story look. I hate seeing that look on your face.”

“Why?”

“Why? Because I fell in love with you ‘Drea.” He’s staring right at me. I pull my legs under me kind of defensively. I mean he’s not a physical threat to me but my heart…my heart’s always been an entirely different matter.

“You can’t fall in love with me, you know what I am. Or rather you don’t have any idea of what I am.”

“Yeah I know, but I want to know you more. I need to know you more. The woman I’ve been undercover with is just paint on the surface of something, of someone that’s amazing.”

“Yeah, something is right.”

“Look you… I know you’re different hell I saw you wallop that wolf thing across the bar and stuff but thing…Hell No! I’ve been to war Andrea, I’ve been in this job for seven years and even though I never seen the supernatural stuff I’ve seen plenty of people that were monsters and grade A shitheels. I’ve also lived with you, been with you and seen you with that little girl. There are just some things you just can’t fake.”

“How can you just sit here and say that Rick? You can’t, You’ve got no idea the enemies I have or what they can do and …..”

He cuts me off with another long really good kiss. Then looks me in the eyes again. “The same goes for me ‘Drea, there’s people that want me dead if they can swing it. I’m not afraid of them and I’m not afraid of the things that are after you. I never joined the FBI to be safe.”

“Me neither.”

“So how does a goddess get into the FBI?”

“Same as you, through the academy.”

“No snapping your fingers?”

“No, I can’t do that, that’s restructuring reality. And that’s not allowed.”

“Why not?”

“We had to establish rules; rules keep the universe from crashing in on itself or worse. Say one person does that, well that sort of breaks the surface tension in reality and others can do it to and each time it’s done it gets easier and easier and any one with enough power could do some really bad things and then there’s the worse stuff.”

“Worse stuff?”

“Lucifer getting free of hell, demons crossing over, The Old Ones waking… if the barriers that make up reality get to turbulent then the walls of the places that hold the worst terrors out there do too.”

“And that would be bad…?”

I give him my don’t be stupid look again.

He smiles and raises his hands. “Joking just joking.”

“It’s not something to joke about; this is just a part of my life, just a part!” God he’s frustrating………bloody men!

“Easy ‘Drea, easy I meant what I said; I’m in love with you. Why can’t you just take that at face value?”

“Because people lie Rick, people lie and say they get what I’m talking about and they really don’t, they get to a point of where they just can’t handle my life and then they leave. Or they leave me when they die.”

“I’m sorry, I’m not like them.”

“That’s what every one of them have said Rick! You all fucking say that and it hurts! It hurts so much and I’m not sure if I can take having my heart broken all over again!”

He reaches out and starts to wipe the tears off of my cheeks with his fingers and gives me this look that almost breaks my heart so full of sweetness and caring and even understanding. “What about the ones that didn’t leave you, the ones that just died?”

I hold up the bible a little. “I may be a goddess but I have my own faith.”

“So how does that work?”

“Who made the gods Rick?”

“I don’t know?”

“Mankind did, we’re living energy given form, until at a certain point the power of belief actually woke us from just energy to being alive and awake and conscious. Man was made in God’s image and we are the children of man.”

“I thought the gods made mankind.”

“No man evolved and we were created as the first line of defence against the darkness out there, against evil. At best we made or influenced several cultures.”

“Okay…but about the bible thing.”

“When creation was started there was darkness before there was light then the big bang happened or rather was willed to happen and the great working had begun. As there is light so must there be darkness and a balance had to be part of the primal formula like the elements. But the creator hadn’t planned on it creating the universe had destroyed the darkness, tore it and ripped it to bits and every universe it got shoved away into the cracks of things and it condensed, and it became aware and as it became aware it became angry, it was just as powerful as creation was and it pushed back against the universes and became darkness and became evil.”

I sigh and shift and take a breath.

“Life became and it evolved everywhere and everywhen. The first of this came from the primal emotions from life, fear, anger, hunger, the things that animals feel, then primal aware life forms had felt the first stirrings of thought and free will. From this mixture of nature and early though came the primals, the gods before there were gods.

The Darkness answered by fragmenting, changing and creating The Old Ones.”

I hold the bible up and look at it and smile. “We gods had our time here and it’s pretty much gone and passed and others have either stopped or moved on. Me, I couldn’t’t, evil hadn’t packed up and left just because we were losing power and energy and influence. A lot of people hate this book the stories and words here and there’s a lot wrong with the damned thing but it’s backed by something true, something real and I know these are the true words in a lot of cases.”

“You do?”

“I never left Rick, I died a few times and had to be reborn into a new body and such but yes I really haven’t left Earth for too long or given up on humanity.”

“Why?”

“Because, I’m made that way.”

“So you’ve seen all of the bible then?”

“No not all of it but I was in the Middle East when Moses led his people free. I was in the crowd as Jesus gave his sermons and I was touched by the message he brought to us all.”

“Touched?”

“I believe in God Rick, more than my father and more than the other religions out there I believe.”

“Why?”

“Why does anyone believe Rick because I have to, it’s how I’m built. I could have left, stayed safe on Olympia and stuff but I chose to come here and in having choice I’m just as much a child of god as humanity is. And for someone who began as a bunch of stories that became beliefs, that became energy…how isn’t that a miracle worthy of belief?”

“Wow…” He’s staring at me. I look down a bit; gnaw on my lower lip a bit. Then he smiles again. “You are a very amazing woman. The fact that you haven’t given up on us has to be a record or something. Does the church know that you’re here? That you are what you are and everything?”

“Yes, I think so. I haven’t actually made that much of an appearance with the bigger church crowd in a long time. There’s too much politics and stuff, too many dangerous factions. I’ve always tried to just keep to good men and women out in the smaller churches and places really doing the work just going through all the crap going on around them from sheer faith and hard work.”

“So you’re actually pretty much the person that I think that you are.”

“I am?” God he’s staring at me and I can’t help but to start blushing.

Rick leans in and kisses me again and I get this kind of charge from it like no kiss I’ve ever really had before because he’s really kissing me. I start crying and feeling him just to make sure that he’s actually there and start to struggle with my own clothes. I’m clumsy and stuff, you want a sexy suave vixen go find my sister Venus. Me I’m not that smooth.

But this, this is unexpected, and I really need this, him especially after Nate. Nate never got it and Nate left breaking my heart. I’ve had my heart broken just too many times.

“Rick…Rick stop…”

He stops.

“I need to see the truth of you. I’ve been hurt too many times, just too many…will you let me look into your heart, into your soul?”

He looks scared, he looks like Nate had when he refused and left only I’d been with Nate for three years before everything had come out with me. We broke up six months after he said no.

“Yes….You might not like what you’re going to see though. You’re not the only one with secrets or that’s been hurt ‘Drea.”

I nod but kiss him, it’s almost a goodbye kiss and then I take his face in my hands and I stare into his soul.

It’s a rush of things. Rick’s not really Rick, he never was. He’s actually Miranda, or Randi. He has been ever since he could remember but you don’t go all faggot in a household full of macho cops and stuff. He grew up in an alcoholic household and got beat a lot as a child and as soon as he could he opted out for the army, actually the navy and joined the marines. He even got as far as becoming a navy SEAL.

He buried Randi under training and pain and the horrors of war and when that doesn’t’t work he tries to drown her with the bottle.

But they’re a good person, they take on missions that might get them killed in the line of duty more than most but they don’t go out and try to die. But if death would come, death would be a release.

But they are a warrior, they believe strongly in love, in right and wrong in those that can if they’re brave enough have a duty to make the world a better place in whatever way that they can.

She’s gone on so long despite the pain, that soul deep pain.

I look into her heart and her soul and for the first time in my entire existence, that soul I’m seeing feels it. Miranda feels my eyes on her and as brave as she has ever been she looks back.

Nobody has ever looked at me like that, no one has ever looked into my soul before and I can’t help it. I’m crying, all the parts of me everywhere and when are crying because she looks right into me and she’s crying because she loves me, because she’s seen all that I am and she thinks I’m beautiful anyways.

Then the power breaks, it breaks and Rick cries out and he tries to run, tries to roll off of my bed and he’s freaking out and crying because everything’s been buried for so long under so much and it hurts to have it surface, it hurts him that he’s not the person that he should have been.

I have to use my strength, my immortal power to hold him there to bring him to me and to keep him there until I can…can hold HER there. “Miranda, Miranda look at me, please, please baby look at me…” I’ve never loved a woman before, all these lives and I’ve never been in love so hard, so fast and with a woman. Dammit Randi look at me!”

She stares at me her eyes red and wide and full of fear like some feral POW let loose.

“I love you. I don’t get it and I don’t care but I love you Miranda.”

“But…but...”

“You’ve got a nice butt.” She gives me this whiny; please don’t make fun of me look. I kiss her. I pool essence not mana and I kiss Her, Miranda not the armour she wears called Rick.

She kisses me back. This is why the kiss was so good; I’m being kissed by someone who knows that yearning a woman has inside to be really kissed. I melt a little. I feel her pulling in on me, my essence my kissing her like a dying flower in need of rain.

And suddenly we can’t get out of our clothes fast enough. We’re passionately kissing and caressing each other and my God the feeling of another woman’s breasts in my hands, yielding to me yet the nipples hardening under my touch, my lips and my tongue has never entered my brain before yet feel s so, tastes so right.

Yes, yes, ten thousand times yes our souls cry out to each other as fingers dip deeply into each other and we touch each other’s sex’s. I’ve never tasted woman before but this, this was something so good, so beyond good that it’s…there are no words.

And yes Randi has changed, not her sex not truly but my essence has left me in a permanent way, the essence of a female goddess and it’s displaced all that energy in making her Rick, muscle has moved and shifted and relocated, heavier set bones change and her hips widen and leg bones lengthen and so do the bones in her arms and her fingers making her tall and graceful, fat moved from her other areas to settle into her breast and her bottom and just under her skin and the flush of hormones filled her as she stopped making one kind and started to produce another kind.

I never meant for this to happen, I never knew that this could happen and I feel the permanent loss of that essence and power as it becomes one with her. I break the kiss scared of her reaction. “Oh God Randi, Miranda I’m sorry…I never meant, I didn’t know I…” She cuts me off with another one of those kisses that rock me to my heart and she stares at me, she looks right into my eyes and says.

“I did it, It was me not you I felt that surge, that energy filling me up when you where actually kissing me ‘Drea and all I could think of was this was it, the only woman who has ever seen the real me and loved me anyway. I needed that kiss and everything around it so much my soul was screaming Yes! I wanted this! I wished for this!”

“God Miranda I’ve never felt anything like this for anyone before.” I’m shaking even as her hands glide over me making my skin all goosefleshed and excited yet scared. I’ve never been this horny before in any life I’ve lived. My nipples hurt, and so does my maiden’s glory…my pussy aches like a bruise. I’ve never felt such a connection and I feel like I could crawl right out of my skin. She’s so beautiful in makes my heart hurt, lurch like a lunging horse on a lead.

It’s the most erotic thing I’ve ever known or done. I’m kissing her and it’s soft lips on soft lips that spices the entire sensation of being kissed by someone who gets and needs to be kissed in that way. It’s the same thing with our breasts and she bites her lip, cries from being touched like that, feeling those feelings that she’s needed to feel for so long…I know I’m not the one feeling them but witnessing it, seeing just how powerful and profound a thing it is that she’s treasuring so much when I, even I took it for granted is beautiful and humbling. The feeling of fingers touching running through each others hair. I never knew how sensual a woman’s hair can be. Especially when she has me on my back and is kissing me…our breasts touching barely but that chestnut hair of hers just teasingly, erotically caressing my skin.

Randi has this shy, timid look as she positions to enter me. Partly nervous, partly scared and something else. She slides into me and it starts normally until we get going and it’s better than any sex I’ve ever had before, it’s like she knows every right way to move, to touch and we’re whispering and moaning into each other and she cries out that it’s never been like this, that it’s never felt like this…never…then she has a climax, as she shoots her cum onto me there’s not a male sound about it, she doesn’t move like a guy cumming and shudders body deeply as she seems to hit this other point and shoots a another few spurts as I squeeze her breasts. My own orgasms are the sweetest I’ve ever had.

It keeps going after that for an hour or more before we fall asleep entangled into each other. I sleep like I’ve been spelled myself. I can’t help but slither against her as we cuddle and get comfortable it’s the best afterglow and after-sex sleep I’ve ever had.

I wake up and I here the lovely sound of SpongeBob and Patrick laughing on the TV and I’m in the bed alone. There’s a flash of panic of this having been a dream and I hear two people laughing. It’s coming from Rick’s I mean Miranda’s adjoining room and I get up and wrap the blanket around me and lean onto the door-jam. Randi is sitting in Her boxers and a baggy t-shirt sitting on the floor eating honey comb cereal and watching cartoons.

Miranda looks at me smiles. “Morning Beautiful, How’d you sleep?”

“Like a rock, you went out?”

“Nope, called in a bit of groceries and got a cab to deliver it. Uhm nothing I own fits.”

The grin of pure happiness on her face is just…it’s worth so much. It’s just...It’s seeing the smile of being really happy on the person you love. I can’t help but to smile back at her. I waltz over and lean down and kiss her and she kisses me back and it’s so good and just topped off with the taste of the cereal and the sweetened milk. It’s like I’ve been blessed. I can’t help but smile and say.

“Yes I can see that.”

“I get what happened sort of and I love this ‘Drea, I feel like I can breathe, like my skin fits just right…finally.”

“I know Randi, I saw.”

“This is going to cause problems isn’t it?”

“Yeah, You’re not exactly Rick Lane anymore. You might have the same DNA and Prints but what are we going to tell people.”

“I don’t know.”

I sit down on the floor beside her and lean against her and leaning back to the bed and watch cartoons. Hannah notices me and hugs me tightly and smiles. “Are you my Mum now?” God the lump in my throat is huge. I stare at her and I ache, every part of me is crying out… “I’ll do everything I can to be that Hannah, I promise.” She looks at Randi. “You look better now that you stopped pretendin to be a boy yanno.”

Randi smiles at her and hugs her. “You’re right, I feel better too.”

Hannah grins back. “So you gonna be my other mom?”

Randi looks me in the eyes and it’s soulful and true. “Yeah, I’d love to be your other mom.” That look says simply I Love You.

We sit for awhile and watch cartoons, we eat cereal out of the box and wash it down with milk right from the carton and just be for awhile. I use the time to try and think things through. What to do with Randi and with Hannah and the were-girl queen and her fight with the Templar’s. Then there’s the lines of power down south going wonky and the rise of Stigmata, that’s never a good sign. It means that there’s something coming that is stirring up the mana of the faithful.

I hope Jonelle finds something out at least about what the heck is going on down there.

Randi’s quiet thinking her own deep thoughts most likely and she’s got this serene yet intense look on her face as she’s watching something really strange with Hannah on TV, it’s a cartoon but really weird. The only modern cartoons to me that are any good are Disney because I love Disney, I have ever since Walt got started and I like the old bugs bunny characters too. Sam Sheepdog is still my favorite. Although Bugs reminds me of Mercury back in the old days, he was mouthy like that.

She finally speaks up. “We can’t go in, not until we find a reason for what happened to me.”

“I know so that means we have to find a way to disappear.”

“What about the wolves?”

“No that’s too dangerous.”

“Why, I didn’t catch all of your and her’s conversation.”

“Parker, that’s the new Queen of the Crescent Moon. That’s the pack that roams New England.”

“That’s a lot of area.”

“Were’s have learned to thin out their ranks in an area. There’s trouble when you too many together just like a pack of dogs.”

“I dunno ‘Drea, that bunch looked organized as hell and there were a lot of non-wolves with them and some of those were Special Forces types.”

“Yeah…that’s not right or even something I’ve heard of before. Were’s don’t deal with outsiders much and they tend to be elitist or hierarchical with their standings and stuff. Parker said that those were her pack…They don’t let those that can’t shift into the pack.”

“Why not?”

“Because they’ve never done it, I suppose it was so that some of the bloodline kept going on.”

“But she’s doing it now. She said these guys might find the gene for them?”

“I never thought that could be done either.”

“And if you’re wrong and these Templar guys can?”

“Dammit! Parker’s right. If they can isolate the genes for the Were’s then none of them’s safe and they won’t stop there.”

“And this means what ‘Drea?”

“War…Old school war with the old races involved. And factions that have been silent for thousands of years going to war against mankind.”

“You sure?”

“Yeah, there are those there that mankind had wiped out over time or have come close to it. They won’t want to get dragged back into things and they’ll be pretty vengeful.”

“Why?”

“When the church came about it took power from the old world beings and gods, there were sorcerers that had once commanded great power and instead of losing power the sought it out from the church. These were the roots of the Templars who were their minions and warriors and they hunted down anything that was involved in the use of or was in possession of magical power right up into the crusades and the Spanish inquisition and even the Salem witch trials.”

“So why would these old races then go to war over the wolves?”

“I’m not sure they will now…If the Templars and their masters are finding ways to find the world’s paranormals, they could be revving up to another crusade, with modern weaponry…this will be bad. They won’t lie down and hide this time, they still haven’t recovered from the last war.”

“When was that?”

“When the Nazis were in power, a lot of people died but so did a lot of other-folk, when we, the USA used the bombs on Japan it sent the other folk into deep hiding.”

“So we’re going to have to become part of this then.”

God she’s looking me in the eyes and yes she’s Randi, my Miranda but just because she’s changed doesn’t mean she’s changed. That fighter, that never give up part of her is almost standing up and shining through her skin…My Navy SEAL girl. She wasn’t asking me a question this time and just the way she says that and stares at me makes my nipples harden.

“Yes it looks like we have to get involved.”

She kisses me, long and slow and deeply and I melt, swoon into that kiss. Nobody kisses me like that. Nobody has ever kissed me like she does. I break the kiss and rest my forehead against hers and tell her.

“This will turn into a war Randi, a war like no-one has seen before. It’ll change the world.”

“I know ‘Drea, but maybe the world needs changing with people like Deacon in it and what he’s done.”

We Kiss like that for I’m not sure how long, I’m pulling strength from her, from her courage and resolve and feeling more of myself than I have for years. Miranda breaks the kiss.

“First clothes and then we go and find Ms. Parker.”

God…I’d follow her into hell.

You know of course

this means war? Did you mean to include the possibility of war with the references about Bugs? Nice plot twist with technology pushing the Hidden Ones into the open. I do love this Universe of yours. It's as good as any of the commerical Urban Fantasies, and magnitudes better than most. No silly angst here. They hurt my people. I'm going to flatten them, hard. Wolves play rough. :)

I had one moment where I had to go back and re-read the part about Randi and Ricki. Then I got it. :)

Wonderful

Hugs!

Grover

So making me blush

I'm glad you're enjoying this tale or this part of them. I did try to sneak in the Bugs Bunny thing as a mini pun. I'm even thinking of including things in the overall series with some of the hidden races.

Randi

I am very happy for Randi, but it sounds like things are about to really heat up.

This was already a personal favorite, and now...

Whoa. One question-are the other Gods gone, or perhaps just not available? Will there be more of the stories be coming into this (for example, are we going to be seeing the Evenescence in this storyline?) and are you tying multiple stories together?
Very interesting story, and just as passionate as usual. More, more, I love it!

Wren

Most if not all of the gods are gone.

There are a few exceptions like the still worshiped Hindu gods and I haven't decided on whether or not they're going to be involved in this event. When mankind turned from them they lost mana from being worshiped and turned away from earth, some died in the war of Heaven when Lucifer and his followers were cast out. I'm planning on the storylines merging eventually. I'm glad you're like it though.

Bailey Summers

So the Crusades of the Templars

Are basically not merely extreme prejudice but war over power, over mana, and is led by the magic wielders masquerading as clergy?

You know, IIRC it was about 14th or somesuch century when the Catholic clergy began to lose its overwhelming power over minds, and started to lose its ability to lord over the worldly matters. If we consider their prior undisputed reign as being a direct result of their winning the first war, how do we explain this?

Heaven has not stood

Idly by as the Templars and their Masters had tried to rule the world. It's their faith and Ethos that they've been messing with and even though they have to follow the rules doesn't mean there hasn't been attempts to stop them.
Other supernatural forces have torn down their power too which is why they operate from the shadows more and more and use criminals they've recruited like Deacon.
Demon kind wants to destroy any kind of faith or religion of good in the world, providing the opportunities for man to dump faith more and more is a strategy that both they and the Vampires have employed.
Modern life is also very well suited to their plans however and convincing the world that majik was fake. It was a way they had kept majik down to a minimum and to themselves. The Masters of the Templars don't want it becoming known that the power is real and out there for others to use. They're now seeing modern technology and weaponry as a means to perhaps finally rid the world of their competition.

It's all very convoluted.

Thanks for your comments, they always make me think a little harder about defining some of the stuff in my storyline for this.

Bailey Summers

thanks again

you continue to tell an intriguing and entertaining story. thanks, and keep up the great work

Thanks you

LoneWolf I enjoy the comments a whole lot. I reread them before I go to write the next bit of something and every one of them helps me get my muse going.

Bailey Summers

Glad to see this one back.

Your intertwined storylines in this, your vampire stories, and Evananescence are all more than a little fascinating and always entertaining. You're explanation of the gods was interesting and fits well with the story as it stands.

It's also clear that a lot of trouble is just over the horizon for your characters and world in general. Demons stirring and even starting to break through to this world, elder races beginning to show themselves, the weres taking pre-emptive action. Given the people they're hitting I would have to believe that is justified, by the way. People like Deacon and his ilk do need to be stomped on, hard.

One question here. Since Randi took in some of Athena/Andrea's essence, is she now also a supernatural being?

Maggie

Actually yes

albeit a minor one, enhanced senses and health maybe, plus they're still sort of technically male so perhaps she might be finally able to have a child as she cannot be impregnated by mortal human means. I haven't really decided yet. Miranda's an FBI agent and Former Navy SEAL that's pretty big stuff in itself.

Bailey Summers

I think I'll have to.

If only to crib ideas from the stuff that happened back then.

Bailey Summers

It may pay to mention Bailey -

That the Templar Crusaders sacked, looted, raped and murdered, a large number of Christian cities in the Ottoman Empire, not only Muslims.

And all in the name of a Christian God.

I understand that the Muslims still teach today what happened then, and now is used by some sects as the reason to wipe out the Christians. (Can you blame them?)

Good story, I think I've got the Gods, Werewolves, white hats and black hats etc. all sorted. (I hope)

It was that subject that inspired me.

When I came up with them as villains. They've just been more widespread in a secret way about the other exterminations. I'm glad you liked it though.
