6 Chapter 6 - A VERY enthusiastic walk

Never in my life would I think that I will have this kind of power. I've discovered that if I got deeper into someone, consciousness would actually devour their soul, turning them into mindless creatures. There was a ridiculous amount of mutant power that I've gained where those with similar power were folded among themselves. 

Frankly, I can bend space, time, matter, soul, power and mind. I've turned into a walking infinity stone but I am not at the same level since those stones embody the concept while I just manipulate it. 

When I said Matter, I can produce any matter organic or inorganic if I wish but the general structure is needed.

Still considering my hive and the vast knowledge that come with it doesn't hinder me the least. It's like having your own google in your mind.

This meant only few could go against me and since I have gained mutant power of Rapid evolution and adaptability accelerate it.  

Truthfully, this made me think rather lackluster which is why I normally don't pay attention to everything. Regardless I wouldn't hesitate to use all my power in my disposal if needed. 

'Maybe I should head to space and get Captain Marvel power next or maybe find some Celestial since if I'm lucky find Knowhere.'

The likelihood of it having a residue of a celestial energy along with the spark of knull when forging the All-black then I'll be lucky. 

Anyways, I was enthusiastically walking down the woods where the sky black by the dark clouds and had turned myself into an adult. 

[ New image here. ]

I lit cigarettes in my mouth since in my past life I always like the feeling of smoking. Maybe it was the cause of my death? Well now I can smoke as much I want since it would affect my body anymore. 

"Well well, this is where you hiding."

I puff a smoke when I arrive at the edge of the cliff looking down at a heavily guarded and secretive facility. This is where Sublime was currently residing and discussing future plans with his collaborator. 

I've only given him a day to feel despair since he'll likely harm more mutants if I let him be.

I was considering exposing the government but no one would likely believe me and just erasing Sublime from all humanity's body while slowly converting people's views on Meta-human more positively. 

I only took one step before vanishing and appearing at the gate of the facility right in front of everyone. However, no one noticed me despite looking directly at me. The reason for this was a currently dormant mutation that makes someone virtually unnoticeable.

It was fortunate that I took it since the child would have been traumatized by being ignored by everyone. This power allows me to not attract anyone's attention and the moment they look at me won't be able to register that I was there. Not to mention this includes cameras.

I inhaled some of my cigarette and infected everyone that instantly caused them to fall without resistance. They weren't dead and merely knocked out since most of them were innocent.

This was just their job and can't blame them. I would feel guilty killing them since they still have family to feed. 

Though, those who didn't have a family were added to my army while those who were actually horrible people were killed. 

This questions my morals but I think this suffices for punishment. Still, I went inside and fazed through the wall. Walking down the facility made me a bit sick since they were Meta-humans body parts stored in strange fluids. 

'The nature of humans huh? They're lucky I'm not evil.'

Looking at the countless memories I saw everyday and the boundless scream that can make a man fall into madness, this was nothing. 

Now I know what, Charless feels. I am more amazed he hasn't gone crazy from all those voices. I'm more lucky since there are few mutant powers that provide assistance. 

Well, I will let those who did this experiment experience the same treatment as they did. I made some Dark Eldar within my pocket dimension that had turned into a large planet and had them be the expert toturer. 

Is this mess up? Yeah but I could care less since they would end up in hell anyway. That aside, I was planning on making the four chaos gods next if I manage to acquire demon physiology but I have to summon a demon for that.  

I took these body parts and added it to my collection but left the original to be buried properly as a sign of respect. Once I was done, I headed my way to where Sublime was having a meeting with Stryker. 

A middle aged man in a fine suit while Sublime's current body was a young man currently standing holding a fine whiskey. What an Egomaniac.  He's still confident in fighting back.

The place we're surrounded by standing U-Man which were human modified with mutant augmentation. 

"How can we find someone when you don't even know what he looks like?"

"Figure it out. This mutant is a lot stronger and could be a threat to our plans."

"Hmph, do you even know how we can lure him?"

"Unfortunately, I don't. I had to sever my connection or he would overpower me."

It's funny seeing them troubled while I just walk past them, pour some whiskey and sit at the Sublime desk chair and place my feet into his desk.

"Looking for me?"

I let my presence known causing them to be stunned before Stryker stood while the U-Man were quickly having their power activated. 

"Who are you and how did you get inside!?"

"The person you are looking for and I just use the door like a normal person. How do you think I got inside?"

"You sound rather lax for someone surrounded. I don't know if you're a fool or confident to bring yourself to me."

Sublime walked to look at me and feel his Killing intent at me. I shrugged it off and gulped some of the whiskey. Damn, wine is a lot better than this crap.

"Regardless, now you're here I want some answer. If you don't comply then I think you know what happened."

"Shoot. I was getting bored anyway."

"Who are you?"

"The one you are looking for."

I chuckled while Sublime felt his ego being attacked by how laid back I was acting but remained calm. I give credit for composing himself while minus for believing that he had won. 

I mean, I'm just buying some time to invade the minds of the U-Man and analyzing the layout of the place to figure out if there are any innocent and still living mutants. 

"Not answering huh?"

"Well, you can call me Yaldabaoth if you like."

"The false gods? Interesting. Tell me for what reason did you attack me?"

I glanced at him and made Sublime step back while I chuckled and burst into insane laughter. 

"Asking me this simple question. Alright, let me enlighten you. The atrocities you've done for the Mutantkind and innocent humans that have been experimented on for your sick game had infuriated me. I know you were the reason for humanity's hatred towards Mutants because you cannot control them."

I became increasingly angry at the memories that I acquired from him. I am no saint and understand the necessity for war and bloodshed but the needless torture and warcrime against the mutant angers me. 

I'm going to end this cycle and help the residents of my planet the best I could. I won't do everything and steal their free will but lessen the unnecessary conflict and would only interfere when it could end life on earth.

"Don't move or else!"

"Or else what? It's been an entertaining and fine night but unfortunately yours has ended."

"Attack him!"

Stryker shot my head using his gun and let the bullet penetrate my body causing a hole through my skull. This terrified him and before he could shoot again, I appeared before him and lifted him up the air.

"You should have shot yourself in the end when you got the chance."

I glanced at Sublime who was terrified when he realized the U-Man was unmoving.

"What are you all doing!? Attack him!"

"They won't listen to you. This U-Man had joined my hive while you were busy monologuing."

"I-Impossible!"

"Typical. Any last words?"

"I can't accept this!"

I scoffed at him and quickly sent tendrils at high speed that he was unable to react to and slowly let him experience hell. I took his sentient mind separating it from its host before placing it in an endless me torture. 

"As for you, well let's say your new playmate would enjoy their new toy."

His emotion went from anger, hatred, madness then despair, fear and emptiness. Oh boy we can't have that can we now?

I sent him to the Dark Eldar to be their playmate. As a small note, Dark Eldar is a race from Warhammer 40k that will take hellraiser and make it times a 100. Their twisted creatures that I personally made for anyone who I deem worthy to be in this endless hell. 

The torture wasn't just physical but also Emotion and pyschological. Am I evil? Maybe. Frankly I don't care much since there people much worse than I am. 

When that's done, I went for another walk around the facility knocking and erasing people's memories teleporting them outside along with the others who arrived where mutants were held hostage.

"W-Who are you!?"

"I am nobody."

I went to scan their memories enough to know which one to send home and which I would bring to Charles. I'll send one of my servants to bring them to hide my identity. 

I made sure to heal everyone's wound and blurred their memories to help them from their trauma. When that was over teleported everyone far away the facility then opened up a portal for them to go.

"Everyone, this leads close to your home while this leads to a place for those who don't have a home."

They were reluctant to trust me but they didn't have a choice anyway. Immediately, one by one they hop inside the portal and bring them back to their family while those gone to Xavier's School quickly alarm Charles and quickly check them out. 

When Charles appeared with Hank looking at the children and stared at my servant.

"Who are you?"

"I am someone given the task to send this Meta-humans to you."

When that said, I let my servant back into my pocket dimension leaving the confused and dumbfounded Xavier but acted quickly to help the Meta-humans. 

"That's gone smoothly. Now…"

I turned my attention back to the facility that was now desolated from any life. I took one last puff of my cigarettes before snapping my fingers as singularity formed at the facility and absorbed everything into nothing. 

I simply walk away leaving the unconscious soldier to their own. Whether they leave or not is up to fate. 

======

Two weeks later after the incident, the new Meta-human that I bought was welcomed by the school. I must say he's handling his job quite well. 

There was no news about the incidents and I can see that the government is handling what happened.

I let them be for now since I can always expose their secrets if I wanted to but that will cause the country to collapse and it isn't what I wanted for now.

"What are you standing there for!? Let's go!"

Hearing someone turn to look at Ororo and the others as we headed towards the mall to have some fun. Today we were given permission to be outside and do whatever we want. 

"Yeah yeah, I was just dozing off."

I followed them and walked around the mall that was packed with people. The first place we went was to watch a comedy movie together. 

It was lackluster in my opinion but the others were having fun and tried my best not to get bored. When it was over, we went to play some arcade games. 

I haven't been in this kind of place for a long time and the last time had been shut down. We exchanged Tokens before me and Ororo went together while Jean and Rogue were left together.

"What kind of game do you want to play first?"

Ororo asked.

"How about this one, it seems fun."

I picked the Metalslug game since this had been the first arcade game I've played and was giving a deep nostalgia. Graphics might have improved but style and simple enjoyment of the game slowly faded away. 

I inserted the tokens before I started playing where I easily won the game and won some tickets in the process. Ororo was enjoying watching me play and even tried to but easily failed.

"Gaah! How did you manage to make it look easy!?"

"Skills, my dear, skills."

"Somehow I doubt that. Why don't we play another game?"

"Sure."

We continued to play until reuniting with others and finding Anne Marie, otherwise known as Rouge dancing in the game Dance evolution. She was attracting quite the crowd because of her alluring figure and seductive looks.

I saw Jean in the crowd sighing seeing Rouge shamelessly dance. We approached her and got her attention rather quickly. 

"Care to tell us what happened?"

"As you can see she's dancing. I warned her but told me it would be fun and tried to invite me."

"Well, it's not like a bad thing. Go Anne!"

I cheered her on and immediately got her attention before giving her all the dancing that made everyone cheered while Ororo and Jean felt embarrassed.

"Don't encourage her!"

Ororo shouted while I merely smirked.

"Relax, we're here to have fun. Not to mention, I want to try it."

"Enzo, No!"

"Enzo, Yes!"

She groaned while I laughed and watched Rouge finish her last step where everyone gave their applause and quickly went towards us.

"How was my dance, sugar?"

"Great! But too bad I have to beat you."

"Oh, are you planning to dance as well? Can't wait to see it!"

Ororo tried to stop me but it was too late as I stood on the dance pad. Everyone was snickering and curious seeing a young boy like me. 

To be honest, I may be 10 years old but my body even before my powers look like 13 years old. 

"Let's rock."

The music started playing, choosing the hardest one and went on like Dante. Now that I think about it, we do act the same most of the time. Everyone cheered me on as I went ballistic in the game. 

"Look at those hips moving~!"

"Anne!"

"What? I'm saying he's quite good at dancing. What do you think I was thinking?"

Rouge teasingly smiled while Ororo and Jean blushed at her comment. After a few minutes the game finished and the audience praised me for my performance while I gave them a bow. I return back with others.

"So how was my dancing?"

"It was impressive but next time try not to attract too much attention."

"You were amazing, Sugar. Maybe we could dance together next time."

"Sure, I'm up for it."

"We should go now."

Jean said and I merely nodded before exploring the others. We went to some clothes shop and I thought it was only a cliche thing but jebus does this girls take their time choosing some their outfit. 

"Hey girls, wanna join us?"

I was just following them when a group of guys approached us. I inwardly facepalm seeing the situation and good lord is this hilarious. 

"Sorry, but no thank you."

"Yeah, get lost, hon. You're not our type."

"Come on, I'll pay for everything if you want."

"Boy, are you deaf? They said no."

I said that made the guy look at me for a moment and snicker. Here I thought only in Chinese novels or fanfic would something like this.

"Don't you know who my father is?"

"What? Your mother never told you?"

This made the girls giggle along with a few of his friends as he became in rage but remained calm.

"Then let me tell you, my father has a partnership with Stark Industries!"

"Mhm mhm."

"And I was being nice offering you some privilege but now you lost that chance."

"Neat."

"And because you mock me, I'll tell my father about this and end you!"

"Oh. You see, that would be intimidating If you were….well intimidating."

"Grrr. Are you mocking me again!"

"Oh No, no, no, no, no. pfft yeah."

The girls were trying to hold their laughter while the guy was getting completely annoyed at me.

"Tch, you're lucky I still have things to do!"

Aaww I wanted to tease a bit more but oh well. Guess I already had my fun with him. I'll go ahead and make some phone calls to sever the partnership with them. 

"Nice job, Sugar~! They were starting to get annoying."

"I mean if you were to hear their thoughts you'd be more angry."

"It's already over, let's finish up."

When everything was done, we headed to grab some pizza and obviously I was the one who paid for everything.

"Where do you get all of your money?"

"From my brother."

I simply said and didn't add more. We continued to eat before heading home after all the events that conspired. Once we were back at the school made me stop at my tracks for a brief moment.

'Huh? Guess it's starting?'

The parasite I left with my brother watched as he experienced his journey into becoming Iron man. I let it happen and just heal him later once he returns. A part of me wants to save him but another stops me. It was my intuition and a sense that it would be important later on.
