Chapter eleven

It took nearly two hours and entry into two different realities to tell all the line walkers not to hang out in the void for the time being. The whole time Zack wondered if going through the empty black would be enough to have him found, but it honestly didn't seem to be a problem. He was nearly certain that Big Shadow would have been able to find him that way, since it was how they'd hunted demons together.

That this earlier version of the being, and that really did feel right, now that he analyzed the whole thing, just didn't know how to do things like that yet. Even the attempts to kill Zack had been more than a little clumsy, just blasting out power and a roiling of space in an attempt to destroy him. If so, that could work to his advantage, at least in potential.

For some reason, and he didn't know why, or how it might have happened, the beings that wished to invade what he thought of as real space, those monstrous creatures in the place beyond the void itself, had, and roughly held to, rules. For instance it wasn't considered fair to send anything after him that was too far out of his league. Which didn't mean that they wouldn't bring in arch-demons, or even several at once, to try and take him down.

Which...

The idea shook him a bit as he finally got to Lesser Shia, deciding to take a late shift. After all, if he was supposed to be a gateway, an entry line into reality, that part kind of made sense. They wouldn't be trying to really destroy him, but rather push Zack into opening a way into that far off realm that didn't exist. In a way, pushing him with creatures that weren't able to kill him instantly made sense. Several times now he'd had to do things that were creative and different to survive. Even becoming Maria the other day on his own had been that.

So there might be a plan in place, rather than just things being tossed his way. A conditioning program, designed to make him into what those other things wanted him to be. If that was so, then everything, all reality, was in danger.

Hathe wasn't in the node room, but there was a guard, who smiled at him, looking like a normal enough human man. True, one with blue hair, that had slightly shiny skin that reflected the overhead light, but that was probably cosmetic. Most of the people that he'd met had been basically human, he realized. It spoke to where he was in the scheme of reality, more than anything else. There were reptilians, and bird like people too, but most of those he met, regardless of what they looked like on the outside, were like he was.

In an infinite reality scheme, that wouldn't be the truth for most places.

"Hi! I was planning to see if anything needed to be done here? My schedule has been a bit messed up for a few days.
