40 39: Wrestling

Byron transformed Charles on the next day, the poor boy had almost thrown up everything he ate that morning when he had to drink Byron's blood on a silver goblet... But anyway, Byron is right now looking at a very fantastic scene right now... A giant green monster is fighting against another muscular monster that seems like a lizard or kind of. Byron was literally sitting on a half-destroyed building with a popcorn bucket, recording the whole fight while eating popcorn! He even would shout: "With your right hand! Right hand! Are you fucking stupid!? Can't you punch him while he is trying to hit you while you dodge!? AMATEUR!" Well, Byron was just seeing it as a normal wrestling fight.

After a while, the military came in, the green monster that would call himself Hulk defeated the other guy and ran away. Byron followed the green monster because he felt a brute amount of Gamma Radiation inside the green guy, fused with his DNA at the molecular level.

After hours running away, the green guy fainted and began to transform back, becoming a human again. The poor guy was gasping for air, Byron landed beside him and saw he jump in fright. "You officially became my favorite wrestler! You just need to train more and learn how to fight properly." Bruce Banner, the poor Hulk, was gasping for air because his lungs hurt like hell! He saw that guy appear out of nowhere, he wanted to ask him who the fuck he was, but he couldn't even breathe properly! "Oh, where's my manners? Here, let me help you." Byron touched Bruce's back while healing his lungs, they were healing already, but he completely cleaned his lungs and healer him.

"*gasp* *cough* *cough* WHO ARE YOU?" Bruce still was confused by a lot of things, he was also scared as hell because he just fought against an aberration! "Oh, my name is Byron, Equilibrium Bryon Tartarus, I'm the Emperor of Tartarus and I'm here to take you with me! I can help you to take care of that big green guy inside you, I can also help you with your work, and your deepest desire." Bruce got up from the ground and asked: "Tartarus? Like the Hell? And what would you be? The devil?" Byron smiled and said: "Precisely." While his six wings jumped out of his body, his horns grew and his tails cut through his flesh and started to swing around. "Jesus!" Bruce shouted while walking backward, he falls down on the ground while looking at Byron with surprise.

Byron chuckled and made the motion of sitting, but he didn't sit in a chair, he sat mid-air on the air itself! "So Bruce, tell me... What's your deepest desire?" Byron asked checking to himself.

"I don't think I want to sell my soul." He said quickly while getting up from the ground, Byron laughed and explained to him: "I don't take souls silly. I take virginity." Bruce instantly backed away again what made Byron burst out in a huge laugh, this made Bruce aware that he was messing with him. "*Sigh~* Sorry. Anyway, I'm offering you a solution to your problem, would you like me to help you?" Bruce thought for a second and said: "What's the catch?" Byron smiled and said: "You are going to be one of my Elite Warriors... A Sin. You will be trained, you will learn about the Hulk, you will accept him as part of yourself and he will be part of you. That's the catch."

Bruce was then thrown in deep thought, he wanted to get rid of Hulk, but he also needed the Hulk, as strange as it may sound, he feels that Hulk is a part of himself. Like all his anger but amplified by Gamma Radiation, also his childish side was passed on Hulk too because Hulk is pure as a child, he only does what he knows: Smash.

"I... Think I accept it." Byron smiled and gave his hand to Bruce who touched it after a few seconds of doubt. "Welcome aboard." Saying those words, Byron instantly teleported away with Banner, when Bruce opened his eyes again his scenery changed from a dark forest to an island... But this island had high buildings with blue and white lights, the night sky, and the stars still could be seen even with such light that illuminated the island. Bruce was in an apartment, but this apartment wasn't normal at all. Byron was sitting in a floating chair made out of Vibranium with a little anti-gravity device that made it float.

"Welcome! This is Tartarus, your new home, Bruce." It was fantastic... Just like New York City but with flying cars, less crowd, fewer buildings but more advanced technology.

"Is this a dream?" Bruce, like any scientist, was amazed by such a view... Not only he noticed the flying cars but also the animals that were or sleeping or flying around, Dinosaurs, Robots, fuck! Even flying whales and dragons! "This isn't a dream, Bruce. This is all real. We are currently located at the center of the Bermuda Triangle, home of Tartarus Archipelago... This is Father's Island, the island that connected to all the other islands or by fixed teleported devices or high tech boats and submarines. Everything you thought was real, and even the laws of physics, you need to throw them away. Because here, on Tartarus, everything is possible."

Banner looked back at Byron who was drinking tea, the night sky was beautiful... He looked back at the sky and sighed. "So... your race don't eat souls?" Byron chuckled and said: "No, at least just the minority." Bruce laughed for the first time after he became Hulk, all of his worries were thrown to the back of his mind... Now he only needs to relax, because this is probably a dream and he will wake up.

When Bruce woke up, the first thing he saw was the white ceiling of the room where he was. At first, he thought that he was still dreaming, but then he blinked and stared at the ceiling for some minutes and finally his mind was clear... "HOLY SHIT! IT WASNT A DREAM!" Bruce shouted as soon as he saw the high tech floating light sphere that keeps illuminating the room where he was. "It seems that you are awake, Mister Banner. Your Divinity requires you at the dining table. Please wear clean clothes that are beside the bed." A demon maid that was on the door said calmly to Banner who got scared shitless by this. He looked at her and just stared for a few minutes until he started to wear clean clothes.

"Please follow me, Mister Banner." The maid exited the room while asking to Banner to follow her, Banner went down the hallway, the walls were made of a cold metal that reflected his image like a mirror... Banner followed quickly the maid and soon he was on a giant banquet room, the floor was made of a blue stone that had several patterns, the walls were literally made out of gold, vibranium, and more!

Banner saw the giant table that probably could have more than 50 people sitting around it. "Your Divinity, I brought Mister Banner, if you excuse me." The maid bowed to Byron who was eating on the table and left. "So, Banner, enjoying your stay so far?"
