CH34: Timeline 70-Apokolips War 5

Meanwhile Across the Galaxy

DeSaad panted harshly shaking at what he had just felt. Despite the spatial distance between Apokolips and the planet they were currently on, he felt it. He had been so confident in his Master's victory that he had not bothered sticking around. Yet, now he and millions of other creatures like him across the Galaxy felt the screech.

The dying screech of Apokolips. His mind contemplated if someone had removed the Flash as their generator but quickly dismissed that. Even if the world of Tyranny and suffering had lost its power, the soul would not be torn apart like this. No- Something was consuming the very heart of Apokolips. The conceptual energy that formed its soul, the very base ideals that made the world something living rather than a lifeless rock of metal was being consumed.

Fear was always a constant in his life but now it became unbearable. He felt sickened and horrid as he twitched, "I need Steppenwulf now-"

He hissed muttering to himself. Barely holding in the shaking of his arms and legs as the building shook and the walls around him came down. The gray figure of Steppenwolf being tossed through them, the power of the Red Entity gone from his body, and his body broken and bashed.

DeSaad went tense gulping and slowly turning his gaze to the hole Steppenwolf had been thrown through only for his eyes to widen, his chest to constrict and his ass to clench. Superman, floated there his eyes glowing red from the heat, and beside him the Guardians of Oa floated near him the Red Entity nowhere in sight, "H-How did you…"

Opening his mouth and closing it he quickly resorts to what he did best. Groveling. Falling onto his knees and bowing, "I-I'll give you all the info you need! I-I can take you to Earth and your Son quickly!"

Superman simply appeared in front of him. Reaching down and hoisting him up, "I wanna know how I got thrown halfway across the Galaxy and mystically cured of the Kryptonite that you pumped in my veins."

His voice was cold yet calm. His eyes still glowing red as DeSaad just numbly nodded while hanging from Superman's grip, "I-I don't know but your son! Your son is a part of an assault on

Apokolips!"

The fire dies down from his eyes. The only reward DeSaad received for his info as Superman pulled him closer was, "Boomtube me there now. If you try and pull anything I'm sure my new friends from Oa would be more than willing to deal with you"

Nodding he shouts, "Fatherbox! Boom tube to Apokolips."

Mr. Villain floated amidst the boiling core of this hellish word his mask burning bright even amidst the core as his shadows shifted and twirled around him. Silent as his gaze, for the briefest second, strayed to the side. Darkseid's eyes followed as the core around him cooled and died down making it harder and harder to move. Then, his eyes widened as he felt the makeshift power source of Apoclayse die down.

His body tensed as he came to a rapid conclusion. His throne world was dying. Not, just lacking power but something was tearing apart its very soul and being. Through the cracks on his arms, his Divinity showed through as he grit his teeth calling upon what power remained of his world. Forcing it, into himself as Mr. Villain began to do the Electric slide for a few seconds.

In an explosion of power, Darkseid launches himself forward grabbing onto the shifting mass. Holding him, by the Mask and squeezing while launching it through layer after layer of his world. The trillions of tons of metal that made up the very bedrock of his world pounding against one side of this Monster as Darkseid kept squeezing his mask.

Mr. Villain's shadows lashed forward slapping across Darkseid's face with enough force to strip another chunk of flesh as he screeched inside Darkseid's skull, "From one world, through an endless ocean of NOTHING! Into the FLAW! I can't rhyme dammit. . .Lemme keep trying- And into this world- It reminds me of a story!"

"Silence," He shouts as he pours his eye beams into the weakening and fragile mask. Chunks of it tearing apart the edges breaking apart with each passing moment as the Monsters fought. The shadows shifted once more and slapped more flesh off of Darkseid's arms. Blood and Ichor pouring out and tainting the collapsing world behind them. Finally, one of the Dark tendrils spears Darkseid through the chest and begins twisting around inside him.

"As a- A child. My brother- Named Better Son! H-Had the GREATEST birthdays. The GREATEST gifts. The mos-t praise. So, since his twelfth birthday, I made a birthday wish. To be the evilest fellow ever," His words grow stronger and stronger as Darkseid finally breaches the surface of the world. The world's tectonic plates shift and crack apart beneath them as they fly off to the sky.

Darkseid feels the shadows wrap around him and begin to squeeze. The ichor burning apart what armor Darkseid had left as Mr. Shadow whispered, "S-So how did I become the evilest you may ask? Did I use just a wish? No! Don't you wanna know the secret? Well. . . Don't you? All I did was talk to Candace."

"Candace," Darkseid mutters causing Mr. Villain to break out laughing. His laughter echoed on for miles- only drowned out as his mask snapped in half at last. Darkseid cried out in pain the space around his hands being consumed in a flash of white.

A single sentence whispering out from the utter nothingness quickly returns back to normal as reality fixes itself. Darkseid's hands were burnt and nearly destroyed, but in his hands were both broken halves of Mr. Villain's mask the words haunting his memory, "Can you suck Deez nu-"

Darkseid grits his teeth crushing half of the mask and throwing it down. His attention quickly shifted to the rest of the Intruders in his world his hands healing as he shouted, "You may have been an abomination but even you are no match for Darkseid! For, I am the Ruler of this Reality, and what lower beings of this Multiverse will fear. I, am the End." Yet, the damage around his hands refuses to heal.
