The New World: Afterlife

Chapter 22

Jim's plan to get revenge on his homicidal many-greats uncle was probably one of the strangest plans he's ever come up with. His plan was to pretend to be Turg by possessing him again and using him until Jim got his body back, since Turg would never allow Jim to kill someone while controlling him. He figured with their powers combined they'd be just as overpowered as Leehoimen. The only other being who agreed to go with them was Grim, Jasper would rather not get further involved, which was fair. Most things Jim got into were dangerous and often resulted in someone dying. Jim was back to being in control of Turg, Jurg if you will, and trying to teach himself how to use Turg's abilities. Jim knew how to do some stuff, but not anything he'd find useful in a fight.
They were outside on the balcony in Turg's family's home in the magic realm where the sky was a starry dark purple-blue void and the trees were dark blue with bright pink foliage. Grim was just there to watch them. They were wearing a set of armour that provided more protection against both magic attacks and melee weapons by covering their entire torso this time. It was light brown in colour with gold accents and the phases of the eclipse going across the chest. It also had a dark red kilt that went down to their knees. Turg insisted that they wear his red cape with it, Jim liked it. Jim also had their hair tied back so it wouldn't be in the way. 
"How do you activate that forcefield?" Jurg asked out-loud, it was easier for him to communicate with Turg that way. Turg replied "What Jim mean?"
"Y'know, during that fight against First Name? You were glowing and it shielded you from his attacks." Jurg elaborated. 
"Oh. Turg don't know. It just happened." Turg replied again. Jurg then said "You say that about the majority of your abilities, Turg."
"Turg can't use too much. Makes Turg tired." Turg reminded Jim. Jurg responded with "That's also true, guess we should stick to my own magic." 
Jurg then casted a small fireball into the sky, it didn't go far before it disappeared. He then said "Which I can still do while controlling you."
"Likely because you already know how to cast those spells and Turg is a magical being." Grim mentioned. 
"Perhaps." Was the only thing Jurg said in response to Grim before continuing to cast more fire spells. Everything seemed to be fireproof in the magic realm so he wasn't damaging any property, not that Jurg would've cared, well, half of Jurg would care. 
"I think I'm ready to kill off more of my relatives." Jurg said as Turg immediately reminded Jim again "Turg said no kill."
"I know, I'm not actually going to kill them. At least not using you." Jurg responded to Turg. Grim then asked "So are you just going to show up again and hopefully catch them off guard? Or do you have a more elaborate plan that you haven't told us yet?"
"If possible, I'm going to seduce myself." Jurg answered while smiling. Grim looked back at him with a confused look as Jurg tried to elaborate "I know, it's weird and also probably wrong on so many levels, but-"
"I'm going to cut you off right there." Grim interrupted before telling Jurg "Do whatever you need to do, but do NOT go far with it."
"I promise I won't, if he's anything like me it'd be easy to lower his guard using tactics that work on me." Jurg explained to Grim before he added "Except sex. Not that I would be in the mood for that. There is no time for that." 
"Turg don't want to either." Turg said as Jurg responded "I wasn't going to ask you to, Turg."
"Whatever happens I'll just be a silent observer until violence breaks out." Grim then said. Jurg postured up a bit and told Grim "Besides, I'm much more adorable this time. Maybe he'll just think I'm too cute to commit acts of violence, much like I did once."
"When he saw Turg he freaked out." Grim reminded Jurg, who responded with "That's true, but maybe he'll change his mind." 
"Turg used to it now." Turg said as Jurg wanted to respond to that, but couldn't think of anything to say besides "That's actually pretty sad, Turg."
"Turg know." Turg responded as Grim asked "So, shall we go or do you need to practice more?"
Jurg put his hand on the amulet and answered with "Screw it, let's go." 
Jurg opened a portal that brought them back to the palace. Jim Pickett The I was still in the throne room but there were no guards and Leehoimen wasn't in sight. He was just standing and staring into the abyss it seemed, lights were on but nobody was home. Grim became invisible and Jurg started confidently walking towards Jim Pickett The I. Once Jurg got close enough to him, he grabbed him by the shoulder and turned him around so he'd be facing Jurg. Jim Pickett The I tried to move away, but Jurg held him in place and told him "Hey big guy."
Jurg died a little on the inside after saying that as Jim Pickett The I suddenly stopped wanting to escape. He asked "What did you just call me?"
Jurg then realized that he was taller than Jim Pickett The I, not by a lot but he was the one staring down at him. 
"Jim knows." Jurg responded as Jim Pickett The I then asked "Weren't you Jim Pickens' lover?"
"Why yes. But Jim Pickens weak. Turg prefer strong human. Like Jim Pickett." Jurg continued to try to convince Jim Pickett The I that he was not a threat but was beginning to regret deciding to do it this way, speaking like Turg would wasn't helping much. 
"Perhaps I treated you too harshly, I hope you can forgive me for that." Jim Pickett The I then said as he started holding onto Jurg's arms. Jurg continued to play along and told him "Turg forgive. For now."
Jurg was no longer able to handle the situation. Even though his plan was working, he realized it was stupid. Before Jurg could say anything else or do something, Leehoimen wandered over to them and asked "Turg? What are you doing back here?"
"He says he prefers me because I'm stronger." Jim Pickett The I answered Leehoimen's question as Jurg stared at Leehoimen with wide eyes. Leehoimen then put his hands together and said "Glad to see that you no longer want him dead, you should consider yourself lucky that a turg chose you." 
Leehoimen then smiled and looked at Jurg to tell him "Perhaps you'll marry him instead."
"Absolutely the fuck not." Jurg responded as he punched Jim Pickett The I in the face, striking right in between his eyes. The force caused Jim Pickett The I to fall backwards to the ground and his glasses to break into two pieces. Leehoimen seemed shocked that who he assumed was Turg would do that. 
"I thought you were a pacifist?" Leehoimen asked as Jurg responded "Yeah, about to pass a fist in your face!"
Jurg then tried to punch Leehoimen, but he turned into a bat and flew off. Grim reappeared to assess what happened, they stood by where Jim Pickett The I laid on the floor. Jurg had knocked them unconscious. He looked over at Grim and asked "Is he dead?" 
"No, you just knocked him out." Grim answered as Jim Pickett The I started to wake up again. Before Jurg could say or do anything else, he heard Leehoimen's voice announce "So if it's a fight you want then so be it. I'm not letting loyalists to Jim Pickens ruin my plans!" 
Suddenly more bats started flying in and turning into vampires, all with bright glowing eyes and medieval-like clothing. They were all in the dark forms and quickly started surrounding the two, three counting Jim Pickett The I. They were outnumbered, Jim did not think about the possibility of that happening. The first vampire to start attacking Jurg was one he recognized. It was Janice.
