A trip to one of the Fantastic Four's Friends

Diablo used his spell of transportation to the apartment of one of the most trusted allies, Jennifer Walters, the She Hulk. Within seconds he appeared on her balcony. A quick look told him that he had not been seen; at least, not yet. The sorcerer crept to the open door to listen and was greeted with the most wondrous of news.

Sue Richards fumed “I could just wring his rubbery neck, Jen. We have been married for 10 years now. You would think he would remember my birthday *once*. If nothing else, you would think he would *invent* something that would remember.”

The green woman next to her chuckled “Or he could just use the calendar on one of his hundreds of PCs to remind him. I know what you mean Sue, but you know that he does love you with all his heart. There is nothing he wouldn’t do for you.”

“Except remember a couple simple dates,” the Invisible Woman growled. I swear Jen if it weren’t for the kids, I would send him packing!” Sue’s arms folder over her ample chest as the angry woman smoldered in rage.

“This would be an interesting test for my toys,” thought the alchemist. “If the legend is right and Ms Richards truly is that angry with her husband, it would be a killing blow to him. How could I resist?” The evil man smiled as he named the sword for this occasion, “Skulltwister!”

Sue and Jen looked back toward the strange man’s voice, but before they could make out who was there, a three foot long blade of incredible beauty appeared in his hand. Both women screamed and fell to the floor sobbing as their minds were completely overwhelmed with new devotion and loyalty to the man at the balcony door. From the streets, apartments and other buildings nearby came companion screams of elation as all within the range of the sword fell headlong into its power. There was no question of will or resistance. The transformation was far too strong and fast for any hope of that. Tears of joy streamed down the heroine’s faces as they raised their eyes to see the man that they loved beyond life or reason, the glorious Diablo.
