Making the God of Love

We laugh. Beyond weird. Touch face, feel like Jorn. I see and feel Jorn thoughts. He see mine. We are one. Our body strong, feel good. Suddenly, thunderous laugh echo through canyon. Sound like Daphne.

"Cypress, you finally coalesce," her voice chuckle through air.

"Yes. I am Cypress," we say. Easy to speak as one.

I love to hear Jorn voice, feel his love for me. I see him in his mind and he see me. We exist two souls in endless bliss. Daphne appear before us, pure darkness within silver light. White hot eyes look into combined soul.

"Waited long to see you whole, brother," she smile.

"I remember you," we speak, then laugh.

Minds align, desires, actions become one. Souls spin fast together. We moan in pleasure as soul find perfect balance. Duel being like ecstasy.

"Hmm, God of Love truly unique," Daphne say. "Straighten up now, have work to do. Kalla in danger."

She point toward city before she fade, leave us in darkness at canyon bottom.

"Hmm, we man?" we mumble, confused.

Feel crotch, find hard fleshy stick. Yep. In Jorn form. Butt naked. Damn, stick nice to touch. Stop playing. No time, must save Kalla. How we get out of canyon? Hmm, Sandsprit climb easy... but we not Sandsprit, we god. Daphne a god too. She appear and vanish. We do that? Think hard. Where want to go? City center. Concentrate... nothing happening. Hmm, snap fingers make us vanish? Snap fingers, ZAP, our being speed up like Sandsprit, even faster than Spritty, world slow down. Particles everywhere! See many realities, Jorn know how to read them. We zoom up like Sandsprit, find city center, slow down, turn solid again. It work! Dredrooks everywhere, look for Kalla. They see us, point, we snap fingers, hide like Sandsprit. Fun!

"Hmm, must stop Gold Dredrook. Then other guards follow?" we ask self. "Gold a leader and jerk like Sabbot. Find Copper Dredrook, Letto, make him guard leader instead. Where Kalla?"

We read particle timelines, can see future and past. Further ahead we read, paths blur to infinite choices. Closer to present, paths less confusing. See Kalla paths go in dance cavern. Follow. Winding hall to small room in back. Find Kalla and Letto. He injured. Snap fingers, we slow down, become solid. Kalla scream when see us.

"Jorn? Why here naked?" she ask.

"Jorn and Spritty here!" we declare. "We Cypress now. Long story. Here to help."

"Oh... thank you. They stab my love Letto. Left him to die. Come after me. I bring him here to hide. He faint. Too much blood gone," Kalla weep.

"We help him," we say, place hand of Letto wound.

Use special sight to examine damage. Hmm... sift through particles, rearrange until bleeding stop. It work! Letto gasp, open eyes, groan. Kalla gasp and hug him, kiss his face.

"Thank you, Jorn, uh, I mean... Cypress?" she say.

"Yes! We god now."

"We? You say Spritty there too?"

"Yes."

Kalla pick up candle, come closer, smile at our face.

"Eyes green... bright emerald green like Spritty. Beautiful. Um... she in there forever?"

"Uh... not sure. Hmm..."

Look around, find mirror in corner. See pretty green eyes in Jorn handsome face. We think, Daphne change form, morph goddess to human, bet we can morph too. Snap fingers, features soften, morph to Spritty, but hair still caramel like Jorn. We laugh, delighted. Have two soul and two bodies in one!

"Wow," Kalla say, amazed.

Hear shouting outside dance cavern, it Gold Dredrook. Yelling for Kalla and Letto. Kalla gasp, hug Letto in fear.

"No fear, Kalla. Cypress will sort this," we smile.

Jorn, want to fight in Spritty form! We still naked, will distract Dredrook with pretty breasts. We agree and march outside. Dredrooks lower guns, stare in confusion. They not recognize caramel hair Spritty. Hmm, concentrate, make hair black again. There! They gasp in shock.

"We not kill you? How you live? Not even hurt..." Gold say, horrified.

"Hard to kill a god," we grin.

Dredrooks mummer, step back.

"Wise to fear us," we grin. "For happy future, swear loyalty to Lordess Kalla and new Dredrook Commander Letto, and we let you live. It simple and good for all. Continue petulant rebellion, we throw you in canyon. Trust us, you not survive like we did."

Gold laugh, look at fellow Dredrook, they not amused.

"Shoot her!" he yell.

No one obey, not even raise guns. Gold curse, raise his gun, shoot at our head. See all in slow motion. Slug leave gun, travel toward head. No real danger for god. Hold up hand, reverse slug momentum, send it back. It smash through Gold forehead much faster than gun shot it. Back of head explode. Oops! Damn. Messy... body crumple to ground. Fellow Dredrook drop guns, fall to one knee before Cypress.

"Sorry for mess. Not know our power yet," we confess. "Uh, Kalla, Letto, come out! It safe now," we call.

They emerge from cavern, Dredrooks swear loyalty to Lordess Kalla and Commander Letto. Relieved, we say goodnight, retreat to apartment on Medio Row to sort selves out. Not tired, feel powerful, overwhelmed, not know what to do with selves. Call Daphne, she know what next.

"Um, Daphne? Beautiful sister, please come!" we call.

Thunderous laugh echo through stones of Shadrock City. Daphne appear before us. She smile like fierce Goddess of War. Look us over, nod.

She say, "Sister form more fair than Gwendoline. No tell her I say that."

"Daphne, what are we?"

"You are Cypress, God of Love. Two souls balanced by love; physically, mentally, spiritually. Perfect god to relieve suffering across universe."

"Big task... we start now? How travel universe?"

"Much still to learn. Red Planet need help. Grow mortal skills here. When ready, will ascend, truly become one with High Father breath. Then move across reality. Help mortals everywhere."

We smile, excited for new life, but not ready.

"Hmm, Daphne, we keep losing clothes. How wear clothes in god form?" we ask.

"Must be blessed and meaningful. Come, Cypress, take hand. Show you past."

We take Daphne powerful hand, step through time. Blurry rush of pure reality. Walk as observers, not interfere in timeline. See green planet full of life. Big cities and happy people. Familiar couple sit by big water under beautiful green tree. Daphne smile, say, "That is last cypress tree on planet." Couple is Jorn and Spritty! Look happy, smile at each other. Jorn say he love me, give me gold ring. Then, sky turn to fire as burning rock tear through heaven. Firespark.

Screaming, explosion, reality warp and burn. Couple torn apart by wave of unreality, become spirits, Sandsprits. Land turn to dry red desert. Spirits wander in sorrow. Hurt the living if touch them. Other humans regress to ruffians, fight to survive, fear spirits. Jorn spirit not recognize Spritty spirit. No motivation without physical body. We drift apart. Spritty wander desert. Jorn stay close to dying cypress tree. Green nettles shimmer with firespark, unnatural dangerous fire. He touch branches, he sizzle, scream, turn to unnatural baby spirit, fall to sand helpless, cursed more than before. My heart hurt for him.

Past Daphne walk across red desert, discover strange spirit baby, pick him up, sooth him. He see her and smile. Begin to grow. He turn less spirit when close to goddess. Daphne help him find buried Sand Devil machine. It only damaged a little by firepark. She help him repair it. Teach him to drive it. Give him motivation, but years pass, Jorn still not really human. Frustrated, Daphne try something new. She give him one drop of her blood, he snap back to human, motivation return, alive. Jorn mind lose memory of goddess in new form, focus on Sand Devil repair, search for water. Daphne step back, keep watch, fascinated, know Jorn special. Not long after Jorn turn real, spirit Spritty see him in desert drilling water. She immediately follow. Find him irresistible. Daphne laugh when she see them together again. She say, "love never destroyed, just changed form." That our beginning.

After vision, we turn to sister and say, "Thank you, Daphne. You save us. Our sister, gentle Goddess of War."

She bow and take us to last burning cypress tree, where all began. Green needles shimmer like rainbow clouds around sun. Firespark give them strange life.

"Firespark needles make everlasting clothes. Perfect for God of Love."

Daphne wave hand, pull glowy needles off tree, change to shimmery green cloth, wrap around us, turn to beautiful green dress!

"Perfectus, thank you, Daphne! What about Jorn form," we ask?

Daphne snap fingers, we morph to Jorn form, wear pretty green pants instead of dress. Perfectus. We snap fingers, change to Spritty form, admire dress again. Daphne laugh.

"Now you know your past. We focus on future."

Daphne clap, apartment appear around us. We back on Medio Row.

She say, "For now, Cypress can split, turn to Jorn and Spritty again. Magic clothes no work when apart. Enjoy each other, learn mortal ways, grow pleasure and love. When ready, Cypress will ascend, Jorn and Spritty become one forever as God of Love. Will change universe. Meantime, make red planet better, try not make disaster."

Daphne blow kiss, sooth our being, we split, POP, back to naked Jorn and Spritty. Goddess laugh, vanish, leave us to think. I hug Jorn, we squeeze each other tight, laugh, shed tears over memories, then lay on bed to rest. Feel normal when separate, god power fade. Strange.

"Crazy dream," I smile, make Jorn laugh.

"Sure this not dream still?" he whisper.

"No knowing, still see our water entangled?"

Jorn smile, close eyes. Expression turn to wonder. Then he gasp, eyes open.

"What?" I ask.

"Not just see water. Future bright, shimmer like firespark, more life, can't comprehend amount. Ecstasy pulse from all storyline. Makes me warm... hard."

"Noticed, feel it on belly," I chuckle.

Jorn smile, kiss me. I play with meaty stick. Guide between legs, take inside me, groan in pleasure. Love riding Jorn, will miss when ascend, but will enjoy him still.

Shadrock city thrive under Kalla. Letto help her keep order with Dredrooks. Jorn dig new cavern with Sand Devil, hit new water vein, underground lake form in canyon. Build new turnwheel waterfalls to cool stones and grow sandroot. Call all nomads home. City grow and thrive, just like Jorn and Spritty's love. Much work ahead to help red planet. Will enjoy every second.
