Prologue: THE DEVIL & MS. LONG
Thus he said,
"The fourth beast shall be the fourth kingdom upon earth, which shall be diverse from all kingdoms, and shall devour the whole earth, and shall tread it down, and break it into pieces. And the ten horns out of this kingdom are ten kings that shall arise: and another shall arise after them; and he shall be diverse from the first and he shall subdue three kings. And he shall speak great words against the most High, and shall wear out the saints of the most High, and think to change times and laws: and they shall be given into his hand until a time and times and the dividing of time.". Daniel 7:23-25 KJV

At BEACON Academy, a stunning sunset blazed through the reddening sky as young blond woman made her way through several back passages. Two women shimmering within white light watched as moved her way into a clearing behind some of the class rooms.

One of them, a younger woman with stark white skin and hair with a very innocent face asked,
"What is she doing?"
The other an older woman whose face was surrounded by chestnut colored curls of hair that drew attention to her stunning face, answered,
"She going to meet a man she is in love with."
The younger asked desiring to know more,
"Monica, who is she?"
The older woman answered,
"Her name is Yang Xiao Long. She is training as a huntress at this academy."

The younger one persisted,
"Is she in danger? Does she need help?"
The older woman turned to back her,
"Wee Ann, we are here now to observe. Our assignment will be here soon enough."

Yang Xiao Long brushed back her long her long blond hair as she arrive in the clearing. She had a look of impatience showing in her face as she pouted to herself. She was waiting for someone, someone who promised to be there. Suddenly she turned as she sensed someone else was there,
"Doctor Williams?"
A man in a dark coat and glasses appeared from his cover from behind the corner of the building in view of the clearing. His facial features betrayed his partially European and Eastern Asian ancestry, but he was no doubt quite good looking, a striking handsome face on an athletic frame clothed over in a dark suit. He adjusted his rectangular framed glasses as he greeted,
"Yang, you made it."
Yang's violet colored eyes betrayed a look of worry as she asked nervously,
"You told me this morning that you'd have to be in the lab all day. I was quite surprised to find your note shortly afterwards. I wasn't sure if I should come or not. I was worried you placed the note there before you found out you had to stay the lab today, Dr. Williams."

The Asian man smiled,
"I was just making a cover story for myself, you told me you were worried that Humph had told others she suspected you were secretly seeing someone."
Yang smiled,
"Don't worry, Blake has been helping me by pretending to pull me aside in an effort to have us go off alone. Humph didn't know what to make of that and Blake was happy to help me and didn't ask me too many questions about who I was seeing."

Dr. Williams moved towards her, looking down into the attractive blonde's beautiful smiling face,
"I'm glad."

Yang cooed with satisfaction as they pulled together into an embrace. The young woman observing them with her partner asked her, "Monica, why are they meeting in secret?"
The older woman explained to her partner, "Its because a student like her is not allowed by the rules of this academy to date an instructor as Dr. Williams is."

Her younger partner then asked her with apprehension, "Monica, is this what humans refer to as love?"

Monica answered her back as they watched the couple kiss, "Sadly, not all is as it seems, Annabelle."

The Asian man began to kiss down the blonde huntress's neck, when she immediately stopped him as she protested,
"Hey, not so fast!"

The Asian Man tried to force her back into an embrace as she struggled to push him away,
"Come in, Baby! You know you know want it!"

The Blonde woman responded by immediately delivering a right hook square into his nose.
The Asian man lay in the ground in a daze of pain as Yang pointed to him as she stood over looking at him,
"You're not Paul. I knew this was a trap! You're that terrible shape shifter that's the boss of White Fang! Pitchfork Evan Rockford!"

The Asian man laughed as suddenly flames seemed to spontaneously ignite over his body and envelope him. The flames subsided revealing a Hispanic dark haired teenaged goat faunus boy with strange blue lips and strange red eyes, and a shoulder length gauntlet of tightly fitted plate mail armor covered the entirety of his left arm.

"Now that you know its me, can I graced with another kiss from those beautiful lips? I feel fortunate just to be in the presence of a beautiful one like you."

Yang's fists blazed with fire,
"Fortunate? If you're lucky, the only thing you'll be doing is recuperating in the infirmary when I am done with you!"

Yang made several swings at the grinning teenaged White Fang Boss, who dodged them easily. He grinned back her as he noted,
"Oh? Did my little trick make you upset?"

Evan makes a circular motion in the air with his left arm and a small flaming hole opens up on the ground as Yang lunges to slug him with hammering blows. He reaches out to the flaming portal,
"Pitchfork Of Souls, to me!"

A flaming pitchfork leaps from the portal and Evil Evan moves back from his fiery opponent to retrieve it, Evan growled in hatred,
"You remember how you and the rest of team RWBY, teamed up with JNPR and DRNL to stop me from taking Kitty Pryde! This pitchfork was more than a match for all of you!"

Yang sneered,
"But Mystics Instructor Strange was more than a match for you. I thought he banished you!"

Evan smiled so smugly his cheekbones bulged with flesh as they helped his grin up,
"Doctor Strange doesn't understand the universe as well as the ones I work for. They put leashes on some of the entities he would be afraid to describe to you."

Yang demanded,
"Who do you work for?"

Evan grinned madly as held the pitchfork to attack her,
"You'll find out soon enough when I give you to them so they can place their foot on your head and make you beg them not to hurt your friends and your family! If they haven't already..."

Yang charged and yelled,
"What aren't you saying! Tell me!"

Evan sneered,
"You'll have to earn that out of me, Blondie!"

Yang fought fiercely, activating the autocannon in her artificial right arm in an effort to drive his constant attempts to poke her with his pitchfork away from her, but Evan quickly opened a fiery portal to escape her line of fire. He held up his plate mail covered left arm to block one of her shots from hitting him the face. The shell impacted with a fiery flash as Evan jumped into the fiery portal. Yang cursed as she pointed her gun arm searching for her foe,
"Dhm teleporter! Where are you?"

Suddenly Yang felt a burning jab into back of her right shoulder, she cursed some more as she spun quickly around to get the tine of goat faunus man's farm implement fashioned weapon out of her shoulder,
"Stupid blasted pitchfork of yours!"

The goat faunus man smiled a creepy smile as he thrusted his flaming weapon at Yang, which she flung away from her with her fighting gauntlets, the renowned Ember Celicia! Evan nearby dropped weapon as Yang flung it away from her. She desired to press forward with another attack, but instead she rubbed her throbbing shoulder, which she felt ugly waves of pain radiating through it that made her grimace her teeth. She looked up and noticed a there was a bystander watching them. It was a rabbit faunus huntress, Humphrey Torbjornsen, a fellow student at BEACON and a studying Mystics at the academy and more suited to fight this sorcerous goat faunus. Yang knew Humphrey had been trying to turn her in for breaking the rules by dating Dr. Williams, but she still called to her,
"Humph! Humphrey! Help me!"

Evil Evan lunged with his weapon at Yang, but she knocked the weapon down causing its tines to become stuck deep into dirt. Evan cursed a stream of blasphemous obscenities as he tried to unstick his pitchfork from the ground, Yang took quick advantage by delivering a quick right jab to his jaw and then delivering a sold left into the White Fang Bosses face. The blow made Evan stagger back as he held his freed pitchfork in his left hand, he suddenly stumbled over onto his back. Yang charged up her fist with super heated flame and leapt up to land finishing blow on him. Evan formed a fiery portal on the ground behind him with his left arm, which he quickly fell through. Shadow like demons with slavering white fangs leapt up from the portal to attack Yang. She quickly used her gauntlets to smash through the darkness covered creatures and spun herself in the air to narrowly avoid falling into the fiery portal as it quickly closed over the demons she had knocked back inside. Yang said angrily,
"Okay, knocked back the wicked little demons, where is their vicious master?"

Yang's question was quickly answered as a firey portal opened up in the air above and behind her. Pitchfork Evan leapt out screaming as he held his pitchfork out to impale Yang on its tines. Yang stepped aside to avoid being stabbed by the fork, grabbing onto its firey handle to slam her attacker onto the ground. As Evan rose up he steadied his pitchfork in his left arm to pull himself up from the ground. Yang grabbed onto the pitchfork with both hands, delivering a double footed kick into his chest, sending him sprawling. Evan rolled away to keep clear of her blows, and then stood up to fight. Yang followed up with a left spin kick, a right round house, a left high kick, but Evan parried them with his fists. Yang groaned,
"Oh you think you're one durable b@$+d, don't you!"

Pitchfork Evan grinned back wickedly as he began to cackle, but Yang quickly delivered a low spin kick that took him off his feet, but he opened a fiery portal underneath him that he quickly fell through. Yang cursed under her breath as her opponent disappeared into the flames. Suddenly Humphrey was beside Yang, her dining utensil weapons in hand, The Furrs Forchet and Luby's Coutau were drawn and ready to fight. Evan suddenly appeared out of a flaming portal with his pitchfork drawn. Yang readied for the attack, but suddenly Humphrey took hold of her in a bear hug. Humphrey held her tight as Evan pointed his pitchfork at Yang's chest,
"Hold her still, Humph. I'm gonna put this little tasty candy on my fork, then I'll unwrap her so I can enjoy my snack!"

Yang pleaded,
"Humph! You're with White Fang? How could you! You and Blake are such friends!"
Another voice, that of a kindly older gentleman which was dressed in clothing that made you think of Victorian era bank clerk, interrupted the perilous moment,
"She actually works for me. Evan, let her go!"

Evan gritted his teeth,
"Come on, Broker! I was having a bit of cruel fun with her!"

Humphrey let her go and Yang rubbed some areas of her arms that had been pressed tightly in the rabbit faunus grip, she noticed the strange gentleman had bizarre insect like eyes,
"I am The Time Broker. I am the existential avatar of the multiverse, that suffers greatly when realities go all wrong. You have proven yourself and I am here to take you to serve in an elite group of reality fixers in our mission to fix the multiverse."

Yang glared back at him,
"Any group that would have Pitchfork Evan as a member can't be up to any good!"

The Time Broker explained simply,
" My dear! You've already been unhinged from your timeline! It is imperative you join your team now and set about your next mission to repair reality before it too late!"

Yang spat out angrily, objecting,
"What the devil do you mean unhinged?"

Evil Evan began to stifle his laughter as he began to convulse with it uncontrollably. The Time Broker shot an angry look his way and then continued to explain,
"You are no longer in phase with your time. Lets go find your friends and you will see."

The Time Broker held Yang's hand and they stepped away together and suddenly disappeared.
Suddenly two new female voices intoned as they emerged into the open,
"She performed well in that fight, she might have actually have beaten you!"

"I agree, she handled herself most impressively, but then again she is from Beacon. I've yet to find a huntress there that's performed unsatisfactorily for me."
Evil Evan turned back to them, addressing the first one, a blue skinned woman with a scale mail bikini armor with strange bird wings sprouting out of her ankles,
"Namora..."

Then addressing the second one, an older woman in a black dress with a scarf made of tattered black veils that covered over her shoulders and concealed the lower half of her face, on her head was a stereotypical but very nicely made leather witch's hat, he smirked as he said,
"Witchy Poo."

The older woman wearing the witch's hat angrily objected,
"It's Witch Doll, you bloody stupid git! But you were always quick the tease me, aren't you, Pitchfork Yvonne?"

Evan grinned back at her in satisfaction,
"So? You saw what she could do ladies, who was the high bidder?"

Witch Doll fessed up,
"It was me who bid the highest. Now old sod, you told me she was in a relationship with Blake. It seemed she seemed she liked the bloke you were pretending to be."

Evan smiled,
"Dr. Williams? He's just some poor sap that's been blinded by his love for her, but he hasn't realized she using him for better get marks!"

Witch Doll smiled,
"She'll fit right in with my lassies then."

Annabelle had enough and blurted out despite her nature keeping her from being heard by the others not with her,
"That liar! Yang is good girl! She loves Paul with a shining true love!"

Monika reached out an arm to restrain the incensed angel,
"Let's wait and see what transpires. Besides the details of our assignment should be coming very quickly!"

Evan pointed to Humphrey,
"She's even cheating on Blake and seeing Weiss behind her back. Isn't that right, Humph? Humph goes to school with her. She should know."

Humphrey nodded her head in reply nervously. Annabelle knew she was lying,
"Why does she go along with his lies?"

Monika pointed to Evan's jacket pocket, where the yellow yarn of braid of doll hair draped out of his pocket,
"It's because he has her soul in that pocket of his over there, trapped in a doll he stole from her! She must do what he says."

Annabelle began to tear up,
"What an awful man!"

Evan said tauntingly,
"And as I said, Yang is also quite the fighter. Surprised you didn't put in the higher bid, Namora"

Namora said flatly,
"I haven't got many good deals in the past from you, Rockford. Or have you forgotten how I did you a favor and recruited your wife to spy on my team as my overseer."

Evan said moodily,
"I haven't forgotten what happened to her"

Namora explained stearnly,
"Illyana Rasputin was good soldier that did what needed to done, but if King Hyperion hadn't killed her, I would've broken her neck myself for her betrayal of me. She was a scared child that had the ability to fight, but had no business working as a overseer in my group. It takes far more than ability and zeal to be a W.I.T.C.H. Agent, you need a certain savy about the world and your wife didn't have that Evan. She got scared panicked and got herself and nearly everyone on her team massacred."

Evil Evan objected,
"She only died only because the orders you gave through the Tallus were highly unclear. I understand that you didn't want to say, " Hey gang, Crazy Carol and I have a bet for a ton of solid gold that her team can wipe the floor with ours. So have at it, and when we get to about half the teams membership dead, and we'll declare a winner!". But she thought she was following orders by doing what she did. She had no idea the sick game you were playing with Carol!"

Namora gritted her teeth in rage,
"That idiot Carol Danvers insulted my honor! I had to have satisfaction!"

Evan looked angrily,
"And you nearly lost because you didn't put into the terms of your wager with her she couldn't bring in any wringers! So she went out and found the biggest most powerful bloody sociopath in the multiversal cluster to be on her team and my wife paid with her life because you were too proud to concede the bet."

Namora said proudly,
"And I won anyways, it was just fortunate for everyone involved that Blink was able to redirect his eyeblasts right into him."

Evan seethed with rage,
"Not for everyone involved"

Witch Doll interrupted,
"Mates, I hate to interrupt this lovely row you guys are having, but why do I have my team waiting around while Time Broker is showing this Yang the ropes?"

Evan answered,
"I recommended she be sold on the good aspects of what she's doing before being deployed. After all she's going to on a squad with a bunch of old enemies of hers and it might send her into a fit, I mean you have Emerald Sustrai, Neopolitan, Cinder Fall, The Malachite Sisters...."

Witch Doll answered bruskly,
"I just wanted her for some extra muscle. Besides she fits that whole Remnant bad girls theme I have going."

Evan smiled,
"Don't sell Yang short! She's capable! You should be glad Ol' Piglet is willing to take some time to orient her for you."

Namora said in confusion,
"Piglet?"

Evan explained,
"Doesn't he sound like Piglet from Winnie The Pooh?"

Witch Doll laughed madly. Evan continued, "I mean, he really does!". Evan turned and was stunned to see The Time Broker standing beside him. The Time Broker seized Evan by the throat as he spoke to Witch Doll,
" Ms. Long has already been sent to the next gathering point already. Deploy your team to there and send them on their next mission."

As Evan gasped as the Time Broker lifted him up by his throat in the air. He kicked his feet weakly as he struggled to breathe as The Time Broker kept his grip around his throat,
"Mr. Rockford, you will refrain from making any more jokes at my expense."

The Time Broker then slammed Evan on the ground onto his back. He grinned insanely as he clenched his fists to strike, but suddenly looked up and noticed Monica standing there looking disapprovingly at him. He glared back at her, but she continued to look at him unwaveringly. Without a word, The Time Broker turned warily away from her and walked off till he finally faded from view.
Witch Doll helped Evan up,
"I thought he was going to bloody murder you, mate! Your regular dingleberry messing with that one, you are!"

Namora smirked,
"Looks like the collective consciousness of the universe decided to give you a well deserved kick in the @$, Evan."

Witch Doll looked at Evan, then laughed,
"She doesn't know? She doesn't know!"

Evan grinned slyly, said in a strained voice,
"I doubt they've read The Bible down there in Atlantis. They worship the Greek Pantheon, or the Kree Elder gods or something like that. But I might be mixing up Aquaman & Namor."

Namora asked incredulously,
"What are you nimwits talking about?"

Witch Doll smiled,
"Oh come now! You haven't figured it out? The deals he offers to change the lives of those impresses into service to work for W.I.T.C.H.?"

Evan added as he dusted himself off,
"Not to mention they just have to do a few terrible things to get that rosy future they are promised by him. But they don't realize they aren't fixing anything, just making universes fit for later take over by W.I.T.C.H."

Witch Doll smiled,
"Ah yes, the Exiles teams. The hammers that W.I.T.C.H. uses to pound the whole of the omniverse into the shape they desire."

Namora asked in frustration,
"What do you morons think your are insinuating? Who is this him you speak madly of?"

Witch Doll and Evil Evan laughed as ones who knew the joke that she didn't, Witch Doll explained,
"The Time Broker, love. He's the bloody devil! He's the Evil One!"

Namora stared at her in shock, but things she suspected were starting to make sense to her now.
Evan added,
"Satan, Beezelbub, Old Scratch, Pere Malfait.. I think he prefers Mephisto. He's never admitted it, but isn't it obvious?"

Namora smiled, maybe these idiots were onto something.

Realizing whose hands Yang Xiao Long had fallen into, Annabelle looked at Monica, her pleading with her help protect Yang from what might happen next. But Monica was taking a white dove that flew over onto her shoulder and removing a small parchment that was tied to it. Annabelle asked, " Is that our assignment? ". Monica unfolded the message, but it was picture. She handed it to Annabelle who reacted angrily as a looked it over. It was a picture of Pitchfork Evan. " But that can't be right! Yang needs...", Annabelle began to object. Monica assured her, "No, its right. Don't doubt Him. He knows whats best."
