Leading up to the games

The next day Britney popped in with Brandon. "Ok I have brought my dad. You wanted to train with him today?" I look to him. "Brandon I will open the link to you to draw on my power instead of the power that I put in you. Since you are drawing on me you will not increase the effects on your body. I will be fine." I then open the link and let my power flow into him and am happy that just like his daughter he does not draw a lot at a rest. I increase my magic flow to keep me strong. "Now Brandon you have the use of my power and the knowledge of the teleport spell that uses your demonic power. I will hold onto you and I want you to transport us back to your place." He concentrates on the spell and I feel the draw of the power. Once done I inform him on how to regulate his power better and then have him take us back.

"Now Brandon I want you to use the fire and attack me. I want you to not hold back make it as powerful as possible." He draws heavily upon my power, then he summons the blue flame trying to ignite me. I just stood there and let it happen. "Ok Brandon I am now going to hit you with regular fire powered by magic so you will learn about your defenses." I pull up some of the red yellow flames of the world. "You ready for this? I will hit you with this I promise you will not die. You need to know the limits of your skills and powers." I then loose the power on him, and I feel through our link since I am trying to gage things how much damage it does to him. Smiling I reply he is not taking much if any. "Ok Brandon I am glad that you have the flame defense now I am going to use the demonic blue flames now." I then repeat the prosses and see it hurts him more but nothing to bad I then repeat the process with the purple. "Wait, what is with this new flame?! I have no knowledge of it in what you have imparted onto me." "I didn't give you the knowledge because I already know that you will not be able to use it. I am going to test to see if it hurts you more than the blue or not. I would like to know because the blue is demonic the regular is normal and the purple is holy. I am part holy being also not just a demon born of the Lucifer bloodline. I know this power hurts us and can kill us easier than the rest. Holy things are not good for demons." I do not say anything more and just hold the purple flame under his hand. I am happy to find that it is no worse than fire on a normal human's hand.

I was happy with the outcome of the training and then I used my healing abilities to heal the damage he took. "Ok I will like you to keep in touch with me and you are free to return home. Britney take him back. I must schedule a meeting with Gregor about the games that are to come. I will contact you two when I need you. I don't want you two to have to sit through it all." "Yes, Miss I will. I hope it all goes well." I then open the gate to my room and walk through it. Using the link. "Jessica bring tea and cookies into the tearoom and put on a nice maid outfit. You are serving us in a meeting I am calling Gregor and my dad it is time I have a meeting about the games, and I think I should take the initiative to throw him off." Jessica responds. "Yes Miss, I will right away. What about the others then? Are they to be a part of the meeting or is it just me?" "No Jessica I want just you so that I am showing my power and my strongest servant."

I then opened my link to my dad. "Dad I am wanting to have a meeting of the minds with you and Gregor. I think it is time that we all have a seat and hash out the details. If I am going to risk the rest of my life as a woman of free choices, I would like to make sure that there is no problems or loopholes that can be exploited by any party." He spent a little time thinking and I felt he may not want to hold the meeting yet. "Yes, daughter I think it's important to have a show of strength." I then open a link to Gregor and invite him here. "Gregor, I think it's a good time we met up and talked about the games. Don't you?" With that I feel his shock with his reply. "Oh, you want to take the initiative and keep surprising me I see. I have to say I'm shocked that you are not only ready and willing to move forward with this, but you are the one to initiate contact." I smile knowing that my mirth will be able to be felt by him. "Yes, me and my dad are happy to have you at my house and will be awaiting your arrival."

With that I dropped the link and right at that time my dad showed up. "So, how did he take it?" I laughed in response and replied. "He was shocked and spooked that I contacted him, and I think that he felt a part of how powerful I have become." He chuckled at that and sat down. We waited in silence for Gregor to show up. He had to follow the rules of my wards and show up in the main hall and wait to be greeted. I contacted Jessica and had her lead him up. I made sure to keep my looks as they always are wings and all. "Welcome Gregor to my home. I'm glad to see your well." Then I looked to Jessica. "Please bring the tea and cookies in please and then stand by for orders." Once she was out of the room Gregor asked. "That's the same Jessica you had the human?" Smiling I replied. "Why yes she is. I changed her into a half." Shock welled up on his face. "I thought you were only a half yourself and here you are looking more like a full demon instead" With that I flared my wings and lit the tips with flames. He looked shocked again. The I had a sly idea and called for Britney and had her round up the other two and pop in also. She complied right away and did not hesitate. The showed up with a shock the Gregor. "Are these you're your other servants? I see you have two half's and two humans." I smiled and said. "yes, I chose to change the daughter after resurrecting her father and claiming both of them and seeing her changed he agreed to be my servant also."

We had pleasantries for a while and then I looked at the two and said. "Ok I think it's time we got down to brass tacks. I'm still new to the idea of the games so I asked my dad to watch over the meeting and the preceding games since it concerns him and his house." Gregor did not look to happy with this but said. "I understand but it's not right that the judge is just your father. I think that you should find two more parties one neutral and the leader of my house also." My dad responded with agreement since he is the head of the house as of right now and the one to have the right to negotiate this. Then we spoke about the games and it's just a simple one on one and since I barely have enough servants he will match what I bring and we will hold the games in one week at my father's place in hell Brandon blanched at that. "You're going to take me to hell now before I even die will I survive this?" To this I responded that I would do my best to bring him back to his wife but cannot promise he will or that he will not be altered by the powers.

After that was all done, he got up and I informed him he can leave from here. Once he was gone. "Dad that was surprising. I did not expect him to get so spooked at how much I have changed. Once he did, I could not help but toy with him and make it more dramatic. Plus, his reaction to my little servants wad the best." He chuckled. "You should have seen the look he gave me when your servants came in, he looked like he was going to be attacked. When I just raised my brows also and looked puzzled, he glowered. I thought he was going to lash out then and there. Then when he saw two of your servants are half and two humans, he touched my mind and asked if I did this. When I told him it is all you, he really wads spooked and I felt it then. I think you have a good chance now. I would recommend getting more contracts and agents if you can and raise your respective power. I want you to wipe the floor with him. If you bring it to a draw it will fall on you to beat him and I want no question of your power." "We will father and rest assured the most deserving will win." With that he left and were started planning.

Brandon spoke up. "My lady I am still worried to go to hell, but I serve you." And Brittany asked. "Do you mind if we go back home or do you have bed of us?" "Yes, I do have need. I want you Brittney to go to your friend's and promote me with the papers that lead you to me and Brandon you will go spend time with your wife. Jason you spread word and Jessica I want you to look to other states looking to get more contracts and servants. Be back here in 4 days. You are dismissed." With that they all left except for Jessica. "Mistress do I have to spend so much time away from you?" "Yes, without power were will lose and were will all have to submit to Gregor and I refuse to." With that she curtsied and left.

I did not take long food my first contact since they left and to my surprise it was someone with Brandon. The guy wanted his gambling debt forgiven and Brandon called me to help with it. I got a simple contract from it and the next was two with Jessica. Both wanted to make themselves attractive, so I got two more simple ones and twisted it to make them attractive to each other just to enjoy it. Then Brittney shocked me by popping in with two of her friends one boy and one girl. "Mistress these two would like to serve you in life and death. They want power and wealth." I gave it since thought and asked. "You do understand that serving me foodies your right to go to heaven and that you can lose your life as early add tomorrow right?" The girl nodded the boy blanched and asked if he must. "No, you don't have to serve me in life but if you do a contract toy will in death and still go to hell and I will still grant you wealth." He opted for wealth only. His contract was easy. I took him to a bank and transferred $100,000 into his account and signed the contract then I sent him away.

I looked at the girl and asked. "What do you want and what is your name?" She replied. "Mistress my name is Tiffany I wish to serve you. I wish for the power that comes with serving you and three longer years of being young. I do not know if I want to go as far as Brittany took it but do wish to serve you. I would also like to stay in your mansion I'll help with care taking all I ask is don't make me go back to school." After thinking about it I agreed. I walked up to her called her name asked her to swear to my service and I placed the burning flame mark on her and took her blood and called her babe as mine. "Now the changes I made to you is this. I gave you the ability to see in the dark. I also gave toy access to the demonic energy you get being my servant the more you use it the more toy will change. I also took advantage of your naturally higher levels of magic stored in your body and tried to make it stronger. I also tried to make it so they should be able to blend like I can, but I won't know if that really worked or not." I then showed her the three fires and how to produce them and increased the link to let her draw on my power. She excelled at the demonic blue and the magic yellow/ orange she could not do the blend, but she got an idea. "Miss if I may I have an idea. If I use the demonic flames and use the magic to include different elements like copper oxide, I'll get a green flame and it will be stronger." I tried it and got a green flame and tested the heat from it.

"This green isn't as strong as the blue or purple but stronger than the normal magic one. Also, if you alter your spell to use only normal you should be able to sill get a green." I tested it and it was a different green. I held out my hand and brought out the flames. First blue then purple third green demonic and then last green normal and last normal. Using the link, I sent the information to Jessica and Jason and called them back I sent Jessica to get him before her return. Brittany was sent after her dad. "Ok Tiffany while still drawing on my power take my hand and open the gate spell and move us to a place you know well and then back." She did and she did it well her draw was lower that all but Jessica and once back all 4 others were waiting. "Tiffany is newest amongst us and she had a good idea she is smart even before I started altering her. She had an idea on a way to alter the use of magic and demonic power to get different flames." The I lit normal magic flames, next finger magic green flame, I then on my middle finger did demonic green, ring finger was purple holy mix, and on my pinky was the blue flames. "The flames are in order of power if viewed from the ideas of a human." I looked around the group. "Now I'm going to teach you all how to use them with the help of Tiffany." We then took the time to learn it.

Jessica got all but the purple. Brittany struggled with the magic but got it so she will stick with demonic mostly. Brandon drawing on my power got demonic blue and understood the concept but did not have capacity for magic. Jason had no talent at any of it, so I stopped him from trying. Tiffany has talent in magic, so she got all but the purple down. "I am so proud of you all we only have two days left before we head to hell and compete. Now I must ask. Tiffany do you want t be a half also or do you want to stay a human? Know that each time you use the demonic powers of my line you will change and no longer be human, but you will not be a full half just part demon. Jessica can tell you and share with you what that's like her, to asked for power when she made a contract." Jessica looked serious and said. "I hated being at the height of my power and still being stuck and I didn't like the changes that I had and knew that if I was elevated to full half status once done we will be a le to keep serving even in death and as long as we are alive we will never age and never die from human ailments." She then showed her how she looked. Tiffany shook her head. "No, I like the idea of not being a half but not being a human. I like the idea of the changes." So, with that without drawing on me she rammed up some demonic flames drawing largely on her power and would not stop she kept going until she stopped changing and change, she did. Her hair turned blue she grew small horns her skin took on a slight blue hue from the small amount of fur she had on her she gained more of a figure and her skirt showed hints of a small tail her magic and demonic powers also increased. Her eyes changed to have small blue flames that looked like they flickered from the color and her teeth took on a sharper look. She then looked at herself in the mirror and smiled.

"I love the way I have changed!" Looking at her I had an idea. "You know if you take it to the next step your changes will get even better. You will gain a full tail and horns you will turn completely blue like us and your power will get stronger right?" She looked at me and shook her head. "No, I don't want that the tail being longer would be the only thing I want, and I feel you can give me that I like the rest." With that she shocked me again and did all five flames including the purple. Then she popped out small wings of feather with blue flames. Right away I called for my dad to show up without telling him why. Once he popped in, I asked him. "Dad how can this be? She was full human with some talent for magic and refused to go full half then chose to ramp up her change with the demonic power only changes I made was to her magic and demonic capacity. She is using all my flames including the purple holy fire. She even has wings and ones of feather at that." He looked thoughtful at that and walked up and put his hand over the holy flame and withdrew it with a hiss, then felt the green ones and was surprised with the power of them also. Looking to me he asked. "When did you get the new flames?" "She had the idea of mixing elements into the demonic to get the magic to mix and it worked but not the way I was getting my pure demonic is stronger than any mixed version but it's better for the things like the green demonic hurts more than normal for us and hurts us but not enough to kill but they all but blue and normal work on each of the servants but her. She has the same resistance to them we do, and she is not even a half. My half two are resistant to blue and normal green and immune to normal and hurt bad by purple. The human ones the purple and greens act like regular fires of different types and hurt them with a resistance to it but not immune."

He took a moment and said. "You probably have chosen right to stop here you may not retain your holy side like Joann did she ended up being a surprise and you are another one. You will have a good chance to make a good servant. My daughter please just remove her humanity and convert her to a mystical being while only making any physical changes she wants but making it so she don't have a human soul like normal she needs a chance to stay with you she and Jessica and Brittany will be your strongest supporters you can need to be able to have good demons or half's at your side and she will be a good half holy and half demon, half. You being a holy demon having a holy half would be good. With that I have something to do so I will leave you with it enjoy your last two days on earth for a while." With that he left. I looked to Tiffany and asked. "You ready for this I am going to take your humanity anyways so any changes you want other than your tail bigger?" "Yes, miss I think it would be nice to have my wings bigger and strong enough to fly like you. I want to maintain my current look." I got an idea and looked to my other half's also and asked them if they want to have wings also and when they agreed I started changing them. Tiffany was able to lose her human side maintaining her holy side got the wings and tail like she wanted. Jessica was able to get red wings. Brittany got blue wings with red lines on the bones. I then spent the day teaching them how to hide and use the wings and to control the changes that's when I felt the rush of my powers expanding and my wings changed to being feather wings with blue and purple flames on them. They all gasped when the change happened, and I chose to hold this in.

We spent the rest of the time relaxing. I sent Brittany and Brandon home to spend time with family and Tiffany moved in and dropped out of school like Brittany did. Jason spent the time working on the garden like I wanted it and Jessica helped me get the required material to conjure a familiar. I summoned a cat and ordered it to help find contracts. Look for ones that are going to be willing to trade their souls for something. We then on the day before all met up to plan. "Brandon, Brittany did you two manage to get her to change her mind about joining us in one way or another. I would love to be able to keep the three of you together after you pass. I would even be willing to turn the three of you into mystical beings like half's and if I can like her to and you to join the family as a half so you can be immortal together. If she still will not, I will not force it on her. I will honor your contract if you do not want to change it to let you have a death like a human. I will even let your mole it over while we are in hell. Jason you will only stay as human as possible to keep your contact right but if you serve me well you won't have to worry about your life span." Brandon agreed to think it over and we chose to start with Jason as the first party to fight.
