The Sadistic Immortal Chapter 6: Allied Multiverse.

The Collector and Inkmatas sees the emergency broadcast.

“Inkmatas, how many people are on Novo Nammu, again?” The Collector asks Inkmatas

“Somewhere around 4.5 billion and 6.8 billion inhabitants.” Inkmatas responds

“Billions of people are still on Novo Nammu, we have to do something.” The Collector realizes

“The two of us can’t evacuate billions alone… we can’t even close his space portal things alone!” Inkmatas worries

“No single military could take them on…” The Collector sighs

“We don’t need a single military ---- we need them all to be able to evacuate the billions of people and other organisms trapped on Novo Nammu. I can get the Inkversian and Andromedan militaries!” Inkmatas realizes, “But we need more systems to help us evacuate the billions of people there!”

“The other superpowers in the multiverse do not get along that well though.” The Collector counters

“The politics do not matter, we need to save all those people!” Inkmatas states bravely

“Well how will you single-handedly get the Bloodhawkis and Sticks?” The Collector asks

“I know someone who can.” Inkmatas replies

“How do you know the other systems will ally with each other?” The Collector criticizes Inkmatas

“We don’t know for sure but we need to have faith that they will put their feuds beside them!” Inkmatas protests

“They likely won’t work together, accept it!” The Collector shouts back

“There are billions of lives on the line so why do you not care now?!” Inkmatas shouts back

“Because those people chose their own fate with that false savior!” The Collector retorts

“Something is wrong with you, dad.” Inkmatas storms out, “Listen, if you will not help then I will find people that will!”

“If you try to save those delusional people, you will be running a fool’s errand.” The Collector growls, “I will not help you in this endeavor”
Inkmatas teleports out of the realm of creation before the Collector could say anything else. The Collector sighs and walks into a different part of the Ancient Library and picks up an old document.

“I have dismissed these but after what we experienced, I think these are an omen of what’s to come.” The Collector thought to himself

After weeks of research, the Collector looks up from his studies and turns on the TV. He looks back down at the document when the news suddenly turns on.

“Here’s the latest update upon the tragedy at Novo Nammu. Citizens have been held up for weeks in their shelters when the news from today has just hit. An unlikely alliance has been formed between the three multiversal superpowers and other nations in an attempt to rescue and evacuate the citizens of Novo Nammu as reports of mutated animals and even a massive creature seemingly wearing Lord Xerxes armor, killing refugees have been coming in. The Multi-Planetary Alliance have made it their goal to get the inhabitants of Novo Nammu off of the planet and attempt to contain the threat!!” The news reports

The Collector stops his studies and picks up his head to watch the news.

“Stickversian capital ships carrying Inkversian technologies and special forces, manned and commanded by Bloodhawkian troops, who are followed by Andromedan healers!” The news further reports, “This never before seen fleet first arrived and surrounded the desperate Novo Nammu yesterday. The troops have engaged the ravenous fauna and flora while also escorting the refugees through the warp points off world. These warp points were originally seen as beacons of hope but now are the refugee’s door of escape. Now we go to our reporter on the ground!”

The broadcast turns to a war-torn village where some buildings collapse and some are on fire. Dead and half eaten civilian bodies line the streets. The footage then cuts to a battalion of Bloodhawki soldiers and Inkversian special forces attempt to hold the line against a hoard of giant mutated sea lice. Just when it looks like they are about to be overrun, King Xander of Andromeda leaps into the front lines, dispatching tens of the creatures with his skillful weapon arts.

“Men, we cannot lose this position, we must protect the civilian evacuation!” Xander shouts, motivating the soldiers

Queen Rea and other Andromedans are seen healing the wounded civilians and soldiers as they evacuate.

Meanwhile, Nova and Inkmatas are at a warp point at the Stickversian capital planet of Stickmania where the remaining civilians and soldiers enter the warp point.

“Okay Nova, lets close this warp point now!” Inkmatas shouts to Nova

“Are you sure this will work?!” Nova Retorts, “And if this does work, whats going to stop Xerxes from simply making new warp points?!”

“Once you unfold space, the scientist of my people, reverse engineering our portal transportation technologies, have found a way to prevent space from being folded once again, we just need you and your cosmic power to undo the folds first!” Inkmatas explains

“You’re not even sure this will work?” Nova asks Inkmatas, “What am I, a test experiment for your peoples?!”

“No, after Xerxes invaded my people’s universe, our scientists began working on this technology for the last 5 years for this exact opportunity to keep Xerxes at bay!” Inkmatas responds, “And yes, you are our Guinea pig”

“I thought as much.” Nova chuckles to himself

Nova begins to concentrate in an attempt to gather up all of his cosmic power. As he concentrates, his whole body begins to radiate with energy, Inkmatas and the other civilians and soldiers begin to back up while a bunch of Inkversian scientists who services the Anti Space Warp (ASW) mounted cannon start to approach Nova out of curiosity. Nova begins to create a giant spike of cosmic energy out of his hands and the spike begins to penetrate the fold in space. Soon as Nova begins to strain harder, the spike entering the warp point, causing the warp point to become blurry. Suddenly a compressed reaction goes off at the warp point, everyone around feels a wave of gravitational energy pass through them, almost like ripples in water. The Inkversian scientists yell

“Quick, Space has unfolded, activate the ASW!”

The bystanders and civilians hear a low, faint hum coming from the machine, Nova collapses down to a knee and Inkmatas rushes over to catch him. The warp point seems to have been dissipated.

“One down, only a like 100 more of these warp points left to go!” Inkmatas jokingly states

“You have to be kidding me, is there anyone else you can get to do this?!” Nova exhaustedly says

“Unless you want to ask Xerxes to borrow the space stone, you’re it!” Inkmatas chuckles

“No… I’m okay, just give me a chance to catch my breath!” Nova admits

“That’s my strong cosmic warrior!” Inkmatas sarcastically says

On a different and a more populated region of Novo Nammu, The Bloodhawki Union’s super soldier begins arguing with the Inkversian commander.

“We have to fortify this position immediately!” The Inkversian commander strategizes to the Bloodhawki soldiers

“That’s a coward’s approach; we should instead create a plan of attack against those mutated corvids before they descend upon us!” The Bloodhawki super soldier retorts

“Guardian, are you forgetting our mission, our purpose here?!” The Inkversian commander shouts at the super soldier, “We’re here to save the defenseless and wounded civilians lives of this planet, not to rack up unnecessary casualties for whatever you Bloodhawkians call ‘honor’”

“Well that just sounds like cowards approach!” The super soldier yells back. “And I’m in charge last time I checked!”

“Honor means nothing when you’re dead!” The Inkversian Soldier shouts back, “And what makes you think you can lead?”

The Inkversian commander and the Bloodhawki Union super soldier argue back and forth at each other when the Mutated Corvids descend upon the post of the allied troops. The soldiers scramble to shoot at the corvids but they get no orders from the arguing leaders. A corvid swoops down at the Inkversian commander when it suddenly gets obliterated by a destruction blast. The two leaders look behind them to see Hakai, angrily staring at the both of them.

“What are you two doing, quit barking at each other, and get your soldiers to kill those birds!” Hakai shouts at the leaders, “By the way, I’m in charge of the both of you!”

After many months of fighting and evacuating of the civilian population, coupled with the closing of the remaining warp points, the last of the living survivors were evacuated. Novo Nammu is then surrounded by the Stickversian capital ships armed with far larger version of the ASW on board keeping the cannons aimed and fired at the massive and now hostile planet. More Stickversian capital ships emerge from light-speed transportation and are positioned around Novo Nammu completely encircling it. Nothing prevents Xerxes folding space within the planet, with the powers banding together, it seems that the threat of Xerxes has been contained to his own planet.

Meanwhile the Collector, in the Realm of Creation, senses a portal open inside the Realm, and he walks out from the Ancient Library after finishing repairs on the last of Astra’s damages, from their skirmish on Nammu. The Collector sees Inkmatas walking out of the portal and sighs.

“Why have you come back?” The Collector asks, “I thought you left the Realm because of me.”

“I came back because I thought we didn’t judge people by their mistakes, especially a whole galaxy of people enticed by a charismatic leader and a more peaceful way of life.” Inkmatas responds, “And we also don’t judge people who make hasty decisions based on jealousy and ego but other than that, I believe that we have contained Xerxes and the rest of the creatures to his planet and…”

“I don’t think that is Xerxes anymore but an ancient stone-fed calamity, the ancients referred to as ‘Xethos’” The Collector blurts very excitedly, “’Xethos’ is thought to be a ancient deity and a harbinger of death and destruction…”

“DAD!” Inkmatas yells, “I don’t care about your research, we could’ve used your help out there instead of your inflated head being buried and sniffing ancient books. We needed help with the problem here and now that YOU might have actually caused!!” Inkmatas angrily gestures at the Collector and he sits down.

“I thought if I could stop him by getting more powerful” The Collector reflects

“Your crusade for power turned a relatively peaceful stonekeeper into a threat to the entire multiverse!” Inkmatas shouts, “I was forced to serve under Inkperial Military Order and witness what true tyranny looks like, now thanks to your ‘plan’ we’re forced to deal with this ‘Xethos’ which is a much larger threat than anything we’ve encountered before.”

Inkmatas takes a deep threat and then sighs.

“Not everything can be solved with a fight, Dad”

Inkmatas looks away from the Collector and begins to leaves the Ancient Library.

“Dad… I need a place to stay for a while, so I am crashing here for a bit” Inkmatas states

The Collector, after seeing her leave, lets out a huge sigh, and looks at his desk.

“She was right…”

Well this got interesting!

Why does Inkmatas call Collector "dad"

Well. The Collector is one of Inkmatas’s 2 adopted fathers. Since Xander doesn’t have much impact in this story, Collector is her [adopted] dad.
