RECITAL 2 - ARRIVAL / AWAKENING
"Well... this is new"
Rubin flexed his wings, strangely at home in the alien shell of his red skinned rippling muscular body.
Beside him, Tess ran her hands slowly up her own lithe red frame, taking the time to stop and measure large firm red breasts, then continuing over the sharp contours of her face to the short horns jutting out of her forehead.
"Wow Rube... just wow. This is beyond anything the book has done before. My god look at me... oh... look at you!"
Rubin stopped his own self exploration and admired Tess' new body for a moment.
"We have wings" he said.
Tess spread her black wings, placed her hand on her hips, and wiggled provocatively.
"That's not all I have" she replied, then smiled and added "You have a forked tongue"
"Yeah? I guess not everything changed then..."
The comment made her giggle, her mouth wide and sharp toothed.
"We're Demons"
Rubin nodded and returned her smile "Yep, right off of a heavy metal album cover"
"Where are we?"
Rubin took in his surrounding for the first time.
The stone of the great boulder they stood on felt hot and unforgiving beneath the thick pads of his heavily clawed feet. The sky above was a faded yellow, cloudless and clear of machine or animal. He couldn't see a Sun but the day was somehow bright and, all at once, he recognized the yellow expanse above him for the all encompassing, strangely featureless cloud that it was.
He walked tentatively to the edge of their round grey perch and looked down at the undulating deep black expanse of the sea where it roiled miles beneath.
"We're on some type of floating rock..."
Tess replied as if she was oblivious to his observation "Do you smell that?"
Rubin flared his nostrils and inhaled the acrid sour air.
"Yeah, it reeks of rot. It's heavy with dead flesh but..."
Tess finished his musing "It smells good"
"Uh huh" he replied "For some reason it does... I think it's a side effect of our bodies"
"Is this supposed to be Hell?"
Rubin shrugged "I don't know. Aren't there supposed to be lakes of fire or something?"
Tess answered with a shrug of her own then smiled and crossed over to him to whisper throatily in his ear.
"God I love you"
With a thick clawed hand he cupped her breast, measured the impossible firmness of it and then chuckled despite himself.
"Babe, I think those are two words that have probably never been spoken in this place"
As if on cue the air around them filled with a deafening crack as the rock split beneath them and they found themselves in freefall, tumbling end over end towards the black unknown below.
Tess reached out to take his hand and missed, then spread her wings and screamed with delight as they caught the air and she instinctively found herself in a controlled glide, perfectly in touch with the instincts encased in the shell she wore.
Several seconds later Rubin followed suite and the two lovers joined each other. Hand in hand they swooped over the crests of the great waves of the ocean, their faces glistening from its thick red spray, their mouths filling with its salty coppery taste.
The taste of blood.
They glided for what seemed like hours, each of them lost in the horrid wonder of the books newest miracle, until finally ahead, they could see the white line of a beach, framed by barren sun bleached rock cliffs.
With a nod to each other they flew on towards it, caught in the shared singular intent to alight on the shores of their ocean of blood and make love in its sticky wet surf.
After a short while they landed on the hot wet sand of the beach, turned towards each other, and kissed deeply, their forked tongues hungrily searching fang and broad black lip.
Rubin bent to suckle at her breast then stopped, his body stiff with shock. Tess took a step back then followed his wide eyed gaze to the rusty black metal plate below. For a moment she stared at its faded surface, her mind unwilling to accept the intrusion of its familiar image in the wondrously horrific place she found herself. She didn't want to admit its existence. Somewhere in the back of her mind, she understood that too acknowledge it would be to acknowledge the possibilities it represented. The possibility that the world around her wasn't a place of fantasy but rather prophesy. That she wasn't awash in delusion but somehow caught in the future.
With a great mental effort she looked away and began the process of shuffling her fears into some unreachable niche in her mind but failed as Rubin voiced what she could not.
"Oh Jesus" he moaned "It's a license plate"

Absolutely awesome. I am eagerly awaiting part 3. I might be some kind of freak for thinking this but wouldn't giving a demon's body a test drive be pretty cool.

I used to be normal, damn you. I used to have the same harmless fantasies everybody else does; having wild monkey lovin' on the back of a Combine Harvester with three lemmings pouring vanilla coke over my body.
But now, because of you and that dirty little animal AshK, I'm entertaining thoughts of writhing in an ocean of blood in a frantically joined threesome while having licence plates rammed up my...
Fuck.
Damn you both to hell.

How to describe your fiction? Strong, certainly. It really does speak to you.
Nice to see another Banks fan out there.

Amazing dude.
Have you ever read any of Iain Banks stuff? I read Excession not too long ago, his imagination is massive, fucking massive. Just thought you might have crossed his path.
On a sidenote, I think I will take some acid. Thanks for the inspiration.

I wrote a part 2 to Recital due to WTH's request. The story took root and now it's going to be a trilogy.
If it makes no sense read part 1. If that doesn't make sense read Necrosiac.
If that doesn't make sense take acid and read Necrosiac.
Necro 27 will be up tomorrow.
