Blink felt space warp around her as she and the phalanx dissapeared.
Oddly enough she ended up in what appeared to be a apartment? This was strange enough. Had she survived? How was that possible, and where was she if she had?

"I wish I had some answers for you," a voice said behind her,"the fact is i don't quite know how you made it to my home myself."

Blink turned around to see a lovely young lady dressed in a black outfit and some weird necklace.

"Who are you?" Blink asked cautiously.

"Well...names are tricky. People can't seem to decide on a name for me.  Would you like something to drink?"

Blink nodded as Death offered her some coffee. You still haven't mentioned your name."

Death chuckled as she finished her sip. "Your right I haven't. Well if you must know I am Death."

Blink chocked on her coffee setting down and trying to control herself. "You mean I didn't survive the attack?"

"I'm afraid not, though I am puzzled as to how you ended up in my domain. You should've ended up in your own dimensions realm of the Dead. Must be this stupid battle again. I'm finding people dead from it all over."

Blink composed herself and looked oddly at her hostess. "What battle?"

"You didn't know? Hmmm, you must've been in limbo when it hit. The creator of the universe your in now and the universe you died in have started a "who's better" fight. Apparently to gather energy they've dispersed the limbo dimentions. Well since you are finally here we might as well make you comfortable. First off we need to get you out of that uniform since it seems to be infected. Hmmm there is a shower and there will be a robe waiting for you so you can freshen up. I'll see that there is a room for you."

Blink tried to follow all this and decided that a shower would probably help put everything in perspective. She reached the shower and turned the water on. The steam felt good, though she couldnt be sure what  her situation is going to lead to. If she was dead, why was this women here? Was she a hostess, a guide? Only time would tell her that.

Blink finished her shower and found the robe there as promised. She slipped into it and stepped out to find the lady drinking her coffee and watching what appeared to be a tv.

"Feeling better? I know it's a primitive form of communication but it still is one of my favorites. Besides I thought I would pick something you were familiar with. This is tuned in to information relating to the battle."

"What happens to you if your "creator" looses?"

Death sat and thought about this. "I suppose I will end up dying like my universe. Thought has occured to me though I honestly hope they decide to drop this stupid fight altogether. Now then, I believe you still owe me a introduction."

Blink smiled as she sat at the couch. "My name is Clairice Ferguson, my friends call me Blink."

Death smiled, "Well Blink you are free to use the TV. I have some work to attend to, but I'll be back shortly."

Blink looked at the TV. "How does it work?"

"Just take the remote, think of someone and click the button. I'll explain more when I get back."

Blink nodded as Death left for her gallery.
-----------------------------------------------------------------

Shortly after leaving the young mutant in her realm, Death had called a family meeting of the Endless.

Death:"Well I suppose you all know what is happening to our universe. We all supposed we would dissapear with it when it went."

Dream: "We didn't suppose sister, we know."

Death:"Do we? one of the people from the alternate universe happened to stumble into my realm of Death. For reasons unknown I can't send her back."

Destiny: "This is desturbing news sibling, though what help is that to us should our world die?"

Death:"From what I've learned the young one is a highly advanced teleporter. Advanced to the point she could teleport us into her world or whatever universe we want. We could pick a young fresh universe and  start again..."

The 6 thought this over in silence. No one had ever quiestioned that when their universe would die they to would, now they have a chance to insure survival.

Destiny: What of this universe? Would we not be condemning it by abandoning our realms? What if the moment of defeat when we leave our universe is spared? Could this young one bring us back?

Death thought about this. she hadnt honestly considered that. "I don't know."

Destiny:Then I'm afraid I must decline the offer.

Dream: As I must to sister. I cannot leave the dreaming especially when there is no guareente of my return.

Death looked to the other three..

Desire:It would be fun...to shape a new universe...but I'm afraid I have duties here which require my attention.

Despair for her part shook her head no.

Delerium Said it would be nice to play in a new place, but she would miss her dog...then she wondered where her dog was...

Death sighed and left. She wanted her family to live, she wanted something of her universe to survive.

Death left the meeting for her realm again to see how her guest is doing.
--------------------------------------------------------------------

Blink had decided to surf around on her "spy TV". She looke in on Gen-x and was happy to see they had made it out alive. She checked on family and friends, etc.. Then she decided to check on Death.

She was startled by a voice behind her. "Do you want to see the Death you met or the Death who the world knows?"

Blink spun around to see the most perfect being she'd ever seen. She couldn't teel it's gender but it didn't matter to her...this person was perfect!

"I am Desire. Let me show you how I left a version of Death."

Before Desire could change the channel Blink asked, "a version?"

Desire chuckled. "Young lady, Death is everywhere for everyone. There are millions of her though out space and time. The one you met is here because you died and happened to end up here. How is a mystery we are working on."

Blink was wondering that herself. "So you are Desire? What could Desire do to Death?"

Desire laughed. "Why trap her of course."(Author's note see Trap of Desire also archived here under DC universe.) Desire held up a video tape.

Blink sat through watching everything Death and Jackie went through at the hands of Del and Desire. "The funny thing is they are still tied there. Neither will die since death is already there unable to grant her lover her touch, and death herself cant leave until she does. So its a stalemate."

Desire flipped the channel to show two female bodies. They looked drained though she could see their hips spasming and here slight crying from them.

Blink looked in shock at Desire. "How could you do something that cruel? I though Desire was about love."

Desire laughed..."Desire is Desire, and answerable to no one, remember that." With that Desire kissed Blink and dissapeared in smoke.

Blink shuddered. Though she didn't understand it she looked back at the two women. She was going to help.
--------------------------------------------------------------------
Within seconds she was in the bedroom. She could tell the two had been there a while from the odor of sweat in the air. If Desire was right all she had to do was untie one of this version of Death's hands.

She moved forward to the binds and managed to loosen it enough to where Death could move. Unfortunately the time she spent in bondage along with the energy spent on god knows how many orgasms had weakened her to much to life her arm. Blink saw this and touched her arm, lifting it up to Jackie. In a second she was back in Death's realm.

Death was there watching the tv. She walked over to the young mutant and hugged her.

"Thank you. I didn't know if I would ever be free again."

Blink  looked at her, "But...you weren't in the bed...you were here."

Death nodded. "what affects one affects us all in some small way. Every orgasm, every wave of fear and helplessness...It had been going on long enough."

Blink thought about what that must've been like. every sensation rippling through countless others who were equally helpless.

Death looked again at the TV. She picked up the remote and clicked a button. The scenes of her and Jackie played on the screen followed by a sigh. "Ya know in the families defense they did warn me, but hell it's not like they never take lovers. I guess I'm doomed to only be seen by those I touch."

Blink's eyes light up then. "I touched you, does that count?"

Death sighed and nodded smiling slightly. "Yeah it does, unortunately it also means since you have officially died here there is no way to get you home."

Blink turned to the tv which was now shoing her firneds. She would never see them again? She looked down and thought it over. "It was for a good cause wasnt it?"

Death nodded and held her hand. Blink smiled as they turned to watch the news of the battles.
 

Encounter 3b
Death and blink cont.
 
Death came out with some tea as Blink sat in her robe watching the events unfold from the battle. It seemed as if no matter how things turned out there would be no clear winner.
 
"More depressing news?" Death asked.
 
Blink nodded. She wondered why Death would ask since it would seem like she would know, but since it wasn't only her universe but Blink's as well Death was just as scared as she was.
 
"It sounds like it's a tie right now. The next one decides it."
 
Death had to be honest, she was worried. She knew someday she would truely die, and not like she did once a century, heck all she did then was become human for a day and go home. This time there would be no home to return to.
 
"How are your friends holding up?" Death asked.
 
Blink actually hadn't thought to check. "Well I know Jubilee is fighting in this, apart from that I don't know."
 
"Hmm, shall we see how she is doing?"
 
"OK."
 
Death clicked the remote to find Jubilee and Robin flash on the screen. Jubilee was tied up and Robin was leaning down to kiss his "capture".
 
"Ummmm....I think Jubes lost." Blink said.
 
"Did she? She seems to be getting her man."
 
Blink looked again. Jubilee and Robin were now kissing quite deeply and  Robin had begun exploring her bound body.
 
"Errr..."
 
"Does this make you uncomfortable?"
 
"Well I kinda feel like a peeping tom ya know"
 
"Ok then, you use the remote."
 
Blink took the remote and clicked. She was thinking about her Gen-X friends when she did. To her embaressment it showed M in the shower with Husk! Blink's eyes locked on the screen as Husk massaged M's breasts. She could feel herself gettingh warm, but this isn't what the remote was suppose to show...was it?
 
Death smiled and silently moved next the the lavender skined lady. She placed her hand on the young ladies lap. Not suprisingly Blink looked at her, though the look did suprise her a little. She was in love.
 
"The other use for this remote is that it shows you what you want...and I think I'm getting the idea."
 
Blink turned back to the TV and tried in denial to change the channel. The next scene up was one of Black Cat and Mary Jane. They were apparently comforting each other since spidey was off fighting. Death looked at the TV and smiled. Blink's breathing was getting a little heavy.
 
Death took the remote leaving the TV on to help the first time out. Leaning over she slid her hand under Blinks robe and massaged her breast. Blink wasn't so much as suprised as relieved when this happened. She let out a sigh and leaned back. What she found odd was Black Cat was now doing everything to Mary Jane that Death was to her.
 
She watched as The white haired vixed pulled Mary Janes robe off her shoulders and felt her own robe follow. She also felt a tingle of anticipation when Cat first tasted MJ's nipple. A rush of excitement went through her as de felt Death at her breast gently sucking.
 
What was happenening next she couldn't quite tell because Death had begun to Move her fingers along her thigh. Blink was lost in a dream now. She had died before making love and wondered how it would be.
 
Death stood and took her top off proceeding then to kneel between Blinks legs. Blink tried to see what was on the TV as she couldn't imagine this was happening to her, but a gentle move of Deaths hand revealing her untouched gender proved it was. Death had a few things to show her though.
 
Death leaned up and sucked her breast while she rubbed her own nipple against Blinks warm cunt. The young mutant was suprised by this as now TV and real life weren't the same. In fact Black cat had tied Mary Jane's hands behind her with her robe and was now using her fingers on the helpless redhead.
 
Blink didnt know what to do except be turned on by the stimuli she was receving from around her. Death slowly ran her tounge across her nipples and made her way down her lavender belly.
 
Blink was scared when Death reached her mound untill she felt the first blissful lap of Death's tounge against her. When that happened any other resistance was now gone.
 
Death spent the next few minutes eating out the young mutant,building her up to a climax.
 
Before she could come however death stood up and slid out of her pants.  "you didn't think you would get out of this without doing anything did you?" Blink gulped and looked hungily at her lover. She wanted her yes but had never done this before. Death tooke her hand and stood her up."go slow at first...". She leaned over and kissed Blink deeply letting her tounge explore the young ladies throat. Blink was suprised but did the same and found it turned her on a bit. As they kissed Death removed Blinks robe. Blink felt a cool rush of air as her body was now naked she tried to pull back and cover herself, but Death pulled her body into her and they fell to the floor.
 
Death rolled over letting Blink be on top for now. Blink looked down and decided the best place to start was the top. She nevrously licked at a nipple. Death smiled. Thinking she was on the right track she sucked on it gently. She found if she sucked right she could still use her tounge on the nipple to. This seemed to have a immediate effect on her new lover. Blink moved a cautious hand up to Deaths other nipple and started playing with it. Death started to gasp as the young lady started to learn how to please a woman.
 
Death gasped in pelasure as Blink nibbled and nursed on her breast. She could feel herself getting hot and knew Blink ws on the edge already. Death gently too the hand massaging her tender nipple and started guiding it down her body. Blink knew what she wanted. As if on automatic pilot the lavander fingers traced their wy down to Death's cunt and started massaging it.
 
Death moaned. She had forgotten how wonderful a touch could be. Maybe she would keep Blink with her.
 
Blink, now satisfied that one nipple was suficiently tender moved to the other. Her delecate tounge and fingers started playing Death like a instrument, and as she started nibbling on Death's other tender breast she got courageous and poked her finger inside her lover.
 
Death gasped. Blinked sat up, scared that she had hurt the woman. Besides she was a mutant, what felt good to her may be painful to someone else.
 
"Did I hurt you??"
 
Death smiled. "Not at all. IT felt wonderful. Would you like to continue?"
 
Blink responded with a grin. Death closed her eyes expecting her nipples to get hit again and was unprepared as the nervous mutant not only slid her finger in her, but her tounge as well!. Death moaned in pleasure giving Blink all the prompting she needed that this was indeed pleasent as she worked over her cunt with both finger and tounge.
 
Death squirmed under her lovers caress moaning. She had never had it this good. She sat up long enough to motion to Blink that she wanted to eat her out as well. Blink manuvered into the upper part of the 69 and continued to lick away.
 
Death now not only hot and excited but smelling her lovers scent buried her face inside her and licked away. Blink shddered as a wave swept through her of pure lust. She felt her untouched sex now being battered by a tounge that wouldnt stop.
 
Death came first moaning into her lover. Her hips bucked riding the finger and tounge that gave her so much pleasure. She tasted the precum of the young mutant and decided this one would be special. As blink lapped up her lovers juice, she felt the familiar sense of a finger in her, then another. Death kept her other finger in the wetness enough to lube it and slid it in the young girls ass as she fingered both and lapped up the rewards.
 
Blink's orgasm was powerful. She could feel it cut through her like a knife as she yelled and shook. When Death was done Blink was shivering on top of her.
 
"It feels wonderful dosen't it."
 
Blink wearily nodded. Death turned around as the young lady passed out on her to watch the rerun of their love making on her TV.
