Grimoire I: Episode I

Prologue I

72 dimensions were held strongly in bonds, with police drones at every angle, guarding every perch, and bars and black skies holding back any attempt to those who may have wished to escape. This was the dark Existence of something as ominous as the Convict Sector, as it housed millions of prisoners who had all defied the supreme order and millions more guards who were there to keep them in check.

She set up her microphone in front of an adoring, cheering crowd and prepared to strum her strange limb. Instead of a hand, there was a large purple octopus creature with parts of a guitar attached to its body. It moved its tentacles along the strings. Many saw this as a bit too bizarre and might turn away, but in the Existence she was in, this sight was quite normal, even as bizarre as an octopus-guitar may seem to the average eye. She had light-green skin and a yellow beak. She was a bird Half Breed (half-Human, half-animal). She had her long, blond hair towering like a mohawk to cover an eye and a bald spot. Her elbow pads were diamonds, and her top was similar to that of two disco balls. Her lower torso was many purple feathers over a disc-like, towering black skirt. She wore black sneaker-boots with white heels and black latex gloves. What fascinated many was that she was a creature referred to as a "Juno."

Junos were quite renowned as they were females brought together by a fusion of multiple beings into one primary being. Usually, their arm would be replaced by something out of the ordinary when the fusion process was done. Thus the female could use their new powers to do whatever may be meant for them. These fusions would come about by red crystals littered throughout various worlds, said to be remnants of a city thousands of years ago where the first people existed and fell in a tragic accident.

The bird-woman had become a successful musician. The tabloid writers of her dimension began to follow her personally. Soon the writers revealed the identity of an alter ego she may have once had by the name of "Spoiled Kitty". As Spoiled Kitty, she would dress in a fanciful attire and dance about in a rap music jamboree. This secret caused her to fall to drug use out of depression from people knowing her darkest secret, and after lashing out to the public, the young woman was thrown into a prison. However, this prison was the largest prison in Existence, housing to over 72 different dimensions entirely: the Convict Sector.

A large, flying boat known as a zeppelin soared through the sky. The large vessel dropped the bird Half Breed's body over an enormous pile of junk and rubble. She lay there for several hours. One hundred other Junos who had all suffered the same fate as her lie alongside her, taken and abandoned. Then a green, hulking creature soon hovered over her. He had an oval-shaped head and a single yellow eye. He had giant, two-toed feet that clung onto junk like hooks, and he wore a loincloth around his waist. He also had a birdcage strapped to his back.

This creature, a Cyclops, dragged the woman back to his lair where the guard drones could not find her. He took her to an abandoned library, where he would pace back and forth constantly for several hours. He quickly climbed up and down to grab each woman of the pile and place them each onto a cot where they could rest and try to cope with their wounds. The guard drones barely paid him mind, as the junk pile where newbies had been dropped was not their biggest concern.

The Cyclops returned them to his abandoned library. This library had been a hideout he had used to avoid the guard drones. He withdrew a lock box from a secret area. He opened it and revealed a red crystal inside that illuminated the entire room without lights. He could finally see. He then marched into the room where each of the 100 Juno prisoners lie, even the bird Half Breed woman, and held the red crystal upward. "I regret what I am about to do."
