Atlantis, Upgrades!

We all slipped into that non-liminal of inky blackness with spots of grey, all holding each other. The colours swirled and black soon faded to rainbow-like colours then to completely unknown spectrums of, light? Matter? i didn't know. Then we appeared within the cacophony of black tornados arcing in ever direction. My insides and apparently the insides of my two women also weren't affected as much as I was the first round trip.

With a strong pull we were all yanked towards a very familiar vortex where we then were consumed by it and spat out. 

Our feet landed on the metallic metal flooring of the city of Atlantis. The city was exactly as i had left it, the only exception being the fresh smell of sea salt that was brought in by the external vents of the city. Illyana and Jean ignored everything around them for a moment and punched me hard in the stomach. It didn't really hurt, but i decided to use my actor skill a bit, to troll them.

"Augh, w-why did you punch so hard?" I crumpled onto my knees as i held my stomach muscles in 'pain', my façade working over time to sustain the trolling. Both of them crouched next to me in concern for any damage they had caused. That was when i struck, i grabbed both of them and before they could react, i gave them a quick but sloppy kiss. At first they struggled but quickly remembered the kiss once i had pulled away, suffice to say they were rather calm after that. 

Now, they had finally started to look around, their eyes gleaming as they looked at the completely foreign architecture of the city of Atlantis. They ran up to the tinted glass and looked through, the glass shining in brighter and more vibrant colour as the suns' rays blasted through them and refracted multi-coloured light throughout the room. Illyana dragged Jean by the hand to the door next to the glass and made her way onto the balcony where she got her first view of the massive scale of the city.

"Wow... W-who built this? This is, insane... A-and it floats on the water?"

I chuckled at Jean's mannerisms as she tried to comprehend the sight before her. Illyana was just as baffled but preferred to contemplate her thoughts by herself, although she did look at me.

"This is Atlantis! A city constructed by the precursor species of Humans. They are the ones that guided Humanity in its' early stages and ascended into higher planer beings. This is one of the single most powerful Spaceships/Cities in this multiverse as it holds all of the secrets of the Ancients, which is what they are called by the Humans."

They nodded as they listened, their eyes scanning the multitude of towers and spires that rose hundreds of floors above the sea level. Eventually they noticed the shimmering shield around the city that almost matched the ocean's colour but several shades lighter. They were stunned and bamboozled.

"E-emelia, won't they be pissed if we are here?" Worry was evident in Jean's face as she said that, her wanting to not cause any hassles being evident... It made her cute.

"Nope, they have ascended into energy beings, they abandoned the city and left for the Milky Way Galaxy."

"Hold on, that means we're in another galaxy right now?"

"Mhm, the Pegasus Galaxy. Although i don't know where the Ancients originated from i can say that this was at least a very important galaxy to them. Now, just to inform you, they did have an enemy and they are still around. They are known as the Wraith and can suck the life force from you, its their food."

"So crazy... It's so different to our universe... Or at least, Earth, i haven't been to outer space in our universe yet." Illyana was contemplating the last bit of her sentence as Jean started speaking next.

"I-is the city occupied by anyone, or is it empty?"

"It was empty, its mine now, or should I say, ours..."

"The 'WHOLE' thing, is ours?"

"Mhm, pretty much... I even figured out their language, coding and started production of their energy source."

"How long did it take for you to do all that? It must have taken months, or even years..."

"Two days."

Jean staggered at my deadpan response, her right hand slapping her forehead in a face palm. Illyana gave me an odd squinted look as she interrupted her own thoughts again.

"I shouldn't expect anything less from the woman who went toe to toe with a literal god."

"Well, the Phoenix force is more than a god/goddess, it is the representation of all life in the multiverse; that we were in but minutes ago."

She facepalmed again, followed by Illyana. Somehow these two missed my discussion with Xavier despite being in the same room, I'll just chalk it up to my beauty again. I turned around and went to the 'elevator' of the tower, quickly followed by Jean and Illyana who didn't have confidence in navigating the city.

We reappeared within the ZPM manufactorum. The machine was currently automatically making a ZPM and seemed almost completed done with the current piece. Feeling the odd gazes of Jean and Illyana behind me i walked into the room, the liquid metal arms constantly shifting and changing as runes flickered every few seconds atop the ZPM. I tapped the table that i had set as the storage for the ZPMs only to notice six currently stored within.

"Hehe, Tony will love one of these bad boys... Maybe we can even make me a suit!"

"Why do you need one? Your already an angel..."

"Take that back... Of course i need one! Its been my dream to have some cool technological armour, made by myself of course."

"I thought i was your dream..."

I coughed in agony from Illyana's words, Jeans stare wasn't helping either in this situation.

"You are honey but a person can have multiple dreams and about different things... You, Jean and Idun are my dream women. This," I gestured towards the ZPM, "is my faction making dream... Imagine a whole entire civilisation powered by this technology and magic!"

They accepted my words but quickly fell into deep thoughts at my last request. I had stumped them and that was enough for me to pocket the six ZPMs into my Storage Ring. Letting them ruminate on their inner monologues i decided to move one, both of them instinctively joining me.

We reappeared within the central tower where i sat down at the central control room and began to implement a plan i had had for a while.

'Let's make an AI baby!'

[Yeah! Lesss goooo! 🎶Go, shorty, it's your birthday🎶]
