"Hurry! Faster, you useless bag of flesh!"
The Deep One whispered angrily at the ears of the Queen Anastasia, the current Queen of the Aquarius Queendom as she held in her hands the darkened Fragment of the Blue Orb she had barely managed to save from the entire destruction happening inside the castle.
She was given the task to bring this fragment to the depths of the island, the giant hole where the Deep One had been sealed within. Due to his unsealing ceremony being disrupted, a part of his body ended managing to get out, but was weakened, this was the piece Drake and Benladann and Miranda were fighting.
Meanwhile, the other part was still sealed within the depths. As long as he could obtain a second fragment of the Blue Orb, he would attain enough power to break through this seal and unseal his other half, this other half which also holding the Blue Orb Fragment he possessed.
"I am going as fast as I can, milord!" She sighed, gasping for air. "Ah… The gates!"
And in the last floor of the castle's underground, a giant gate leading to a place named the "Obsidian Caves" laid within. It was a giant cave where the Deep One was sealed, his body was completely sealed into black crystals all over it.
The cult used these crystals only sometimes, to forge special weapons or armor that held the power of the Deep One within. However, because not everyone was compatible with them, not everyone could properly use their power.
"We're almost there, milord!" The Queen smiled, running as fast as she could over there. Her dress was tore apart and she was half-naked, showing several black tattoos across her body, extensions of her Stigma which she had been mutating and transforming with the Deep One's help over many years.
"Once you reach the caves, you know what to do, offer me your body!" The Deep One roared, his powers influencing her even more.
"Yes… I shall become one with you, my lord!" The Queen rejoiced. "I shall-"
"Nuh-huh, you're not doing any of THAT!"
CRAAAAAASH!
Yuki suddenly landed right in front of Queen Anastacia, shattering the floor below and making several cracks everywhere, as an eruption of light erupted from the ground, summoning rays of light shooting at Anastasia!
BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!
"Aaaaagggh! Y-You?! How come the forces of that damn lizard have arrived here already?!" The Queen panicked, furiously glancing at the beast-kin in front of her.
Yuki was already in her Divine Beast Spirit Fusion form, taking the slight appearance of a White Tiger as her white fur gained black stripes and her ears became cat-like, alongside her face that gained black stripes similar to the ones in a white tiger. A long tiger-like tail, and gigantic, sharp tiger claws imbued with the power of light.
"Well, that can't be helped, you're quite the sluggish woman!" Laughed Yuki. Her Aura surged like a roaring furiously and unleashing a powerful shockwave that threw the Queen away from the gates!
"ROOOOAAARRRR!"
TRUUUUMMM…!
"Unnggh…! Aaaggh! Y-You damn foreigners! What makes you think the affairs of this country have anything to do with you all?!" The Queen furiously said, slowly standing back up, the darkness of her Stigma activating and spreading across the expanded form it had around her body, she was the only one that had developed and transformed the Stigma into a full-body one.
"Not like we care what YOU think." Yuki giggled. "But we're here because we can't let assholes like you get away with the shit they do."
"Yuki, tone down the chit-chat." Tisha said, the ice elf woman glanced at the Queen's powerup while squinting her eyes.
"More importantly, do you recognize her, Sapphira?" Asked Pekora.
Pekora, Tisha, and Sapphira arrived at the side of Yuki, the four powerful women blocking the way to the gates. Sapphire heard the words of Pekora as she sighed.
"I do recall seeing her sometimes. I have been confined in my divine realm for a while. We are from different times so I doubt she could ever recognize me anyways." Sapphire said. "Though I do know she was the one that killed the previous queen with the Deep One's help, and also the one that almost got Rose killed."
"Fufu, the Deep One has told me about you… An ancient witch from old ages that sealed him. If I kill you, I wonder how pleased he would be!" The queen laughed.
"Why did you even do the things you did?! You were having a good life, you were at the side of your beloved sister! Why did you had to go down such a path?!" Sapphire cried.
"Huh? I guess you wouldn't understand…" The queen sighed. "The humiliation, always feeling inferior, how I was always ignored… The Deep One brought to me satisfaction, he praised me! He said I was special! And I AM! I AM SPECIAL! Very… very special…"
The Stigma across her body glowed with blue and black light, as her entire body started to transform. Unlike her daughter who couldn't even control her Familiar, Anastasia had achieved a new level of control over this power, and fusion with the Deep One's Soul Fragment sealed within the Stigma, which was now spread across her body.
TRUUUUUUMMMM…!
A ray of blue and black lightning reached her, as her entire body changed. In mere seconds, the beautiful woman changed into a gigantic and monstrous black scaled sea snake similar to Leviathan. Not only that, but her torso emerged above the giant sea snake's head, holding two long spears, and being covered in black armor made of these scales, with a big red eye in her forehead and sharp horns growing above her head.
"Hahaha… See?! I am VERY special! I was simply planning to give this form to my lord! But I guess the plans have changed! I'll have YOU be his sacrifices!" She laughed.
Her gigantic body rushed towards the four women in front of her, clashing into the floor and unleashing a tremendous shockwave of chaos and darkness everywhere, with countless black lightning shocks!
CRAAAAAASH!
