Description
Maria found herself uncontrollably remembering everything about her past. Her time spent in the military, transferring to a local law enforcement agency, and ultimately being betrayed by her own government. She remembered the chain of events that lead her from being an ally to Arthur, to finding this parasitic organism.She wanted vengeance. That desire lead her to discover the secret holdings of the Divinity Party, an entire cache of alien artifacts that it hoped to use to conquer the rest of the world with. In the process of destroying what she could find, one of the artifacts was... alive, and bonded to her. It used that drive of vengeance to delve into her mind and make her only focus on that emotion. Through that, the organism sought to devour her completely.
She now wanted free of it. However, it would not let her go, "The parasite is now almost fully bonded with you. You cannot survive without it," Maria heard in her mind, "You can either be the darkness of my shadow, or a rotting corpse."
Maria realized that the parasite didn't have it's own mind. Like it tried to do to her, it was part of a larger hive mind, "Ah, you're finally aware of me."
"Who are you?"
"I am the Queen, and you are now a part of my body," the parasite never had a mind of its own to begin with, it was always doing the bidding of this consciousness from space,"You will know my glory very soon."
Maria could now feel that her body was no longer doing what she desired, but it was completely controlled by this Queen, "You do have a resilient mind, it will take longer to absorb your very being. Now you will watch helplessly as I use you to destroy the one this Earth calls the Heretic."
Maria sunk into a deep and inescapable dread, "What have I done?"
