Chapter 192: One last trip.

Skrullos, the barren land of the first Skrull Empire before they move to Skrullos 2 (was destroyed by Galactus)

R'Kill, the high priestess of the Skrulls, and also Queen of the Skrull Empire, raised her head to the cloud from her throne. Her 'M' Shaped crown brought attention to her silky ebony hair as she walked down the steps of the raised throne platform.

"The Prophecy. All of them. Had been broken."

A wide grin appeared on her face as she felt a new sense of freedom inside her mind. The intrusive thought that constantly egged her to kill her husband and become the new emperor was suddenly gone.

After Dorrek VII usurpation, she was forced to marry Dorrek and have a daughter together before she ran away from the Empire.

"Talos." She summoned in a dignified voice.

"Yes My Queen?" Talos, the earth betrayer replied.

"Prepare to return." She ordered. She wished that she would make it in time to meet the saviour of their race before they move on. Also, by the Skrulls law, she would be the one to inherit the throne when her husband died. The only one who has the top priority above her was a direct male heir to the king – her grandson, Hulkling.

And now, the heir was still on Earth, living his life as a human and still doesn't know about his Skrull-Kree ancestry.

"No. We can't bring them all aboard the ship. Arcadia wasn't made for this many people…I mean zombies." Dawn said sternly.

He had come back on the planet after Ryan's situation had stabilised. He had the grimoire with him during that time, and it greatly helped Ryan's healing. The curse that Mephisto had casted on him to remove his ability to heal was broken by Anos Voldigoad magic.

5 minutes left on the grimoire renting time, and Dawn decided not to waste anymore time and read as much as he could. He sensed that after this, he would ascend into the 7th magic circle stage and possibly the 8th.

Hela broke out the puppy dog eyes, but Dawn ignored her. She pursed her lips and turned her attention on the zombies in front of her. "What a waste!!"

The 100,000 zombie army dropped their heads and shoulders like an abandoned dog. Hela was apprehensive to let them go as she had become fond of the stupid zombies. Also, the zombies had enriched her understanding in the concept of death, further increasing her power.

Odin was shaking in his boots in Asgard as he sensed Hela's strengthening. "SUMMON THOR HOME!" He decreed.

The fatty Thor was summoned back by the bifrost after he had just purchased 100 Krabby patty burgers. He was too surprised that he unconsciously dropped his burgers as he was pulled upward by the bifrost.

"NOOO!!!!!! My ALLOWANCE!!" Thor screamed in horror as he saw he had lost his burgers that he bought with all of his money.

"HAHA. This is mine now!" Hulk, Thor's partner in crime in getting the food together, swiped the burgers from the ground despite the screams of a very angry Thor. "HULKKKK!!!!"

In Skrullos third, Hela commanded the entire zombie army in another direction.

Centurion Gia and Centurion Saal watched the sight of the zombified army with fear. Nova Rocket was in a gurney, being pushed back into their ship. He was moaning the entire time he was being pushed.

"With this kind of power, how do we know that the crew won't turn their fangs on Xandar?" Saal asked with slight fear. Now, they were allies in the battle. But if one day the Arcadia crew decided that they were done being the nice guys, what would they do next?

"...I don't know. But I trust them." Gia replied with a soft smile on her face.

"....That's it?" Saal asked in disbelief.

Doge Udu Fenu, the scientist responsible for the matter, stood(sat) in front of Dawn to face his crime. He had a smile on his face even though he would have to pay for his crime. – that's what he thought.

"Doge Udu Fenu, why are you smiling?" Dawn asked.

"Because I am happy. Prejudice against the Skrulls would lessen after this. Even if I won't be able to see it after this."

" Why wouldn't you see it?"

"...I will be going to jail right?"

"No. The ones responsible were the Skrull gods and your king. You don't have anything to do with it. In fact, we should hail you as a hero." Hercules interjected while he was walking by.

"Shut up Hairy beast. Keep walking!" Ana said as she kicked Hercules' butt. The God of Strength meekly walked into the Arcadia after. Ana told him the hierarchy of the ship depended on who joined it first. He was tricked by the cat burglar into thinking he was the last one in the hierarchy there.

Dawn pointed at the whipped Hercules, "Like he said."

Even though the shapeshifting abilities were gone, Doge couldn't claim that all of the prejudice would disappear. People always fear something that is different from them. To truly achieve understanding between species was nothing more than a pipe dream for him. He would make do with the next best things because of this – Stability and Freedom for his species.

Dawn stared at the man in the wheelchair for a few seconds before he smirked. 'Interesting thought.' He said as he had read the man's mind.

"Ryan Knight wants me to ask you something." Dawn said.

"Where is he? Is he okay?" Doge asked in concern. Ryan was one of the rare few people in the world that didn't judge him because he was in a wheelchair or a Skrull. He would like to meet the man again, and this time maybe talk longer with him.

"He is a bit injured in the explosion. He is in recuperation now as I already healed him. He will come by later to help." Dawn replied.

" He is creating a team. A team responsible for fixing the universe' flaws. It's called….The Ultimates."

"What would the team do exactly?" Doge asked, a bit sceptical.

"The team's first task. Finding out the solution to the universe' hunger." Dawn replied.

"Do you mean people or the bastard?" Doge asked with slight venom at the latter.

"That bastard. Galactus." Dawn replied."Actually. Both."

"I accept your invitation." Doge said.

Dawn waved his arm and a chantless healing magic assaulted Doge's body. His paralysed leg as his spine was broken from the beating and the branding words on his face disappeared in seconds.

"What-" He was stunned speechless when he realised what Dawn had done.

"No good deeds goes unrewarded. No bad deeds goes unpunished. That is the Arcadian way."

"Where is him? How do I take the virus back?" Hela muttered after leading the zombies somewhere else. Only Ryan knew how to remove the T-virus completely. If the virus fell into the wrong hands, chaos would spread like wildfire in the galaxy.

Kai flew toward Hela to convey a message from Ryan.

"Burn them."

"..." Hela was speechless after she heard the solution. "A little primitive, for someone like him."

"Not quite so primitive." Kai replied with a sly smirk.

Ryan had integrated the properties of the Extremis Virus into the T-Virus, making a completely new biochemical menace. Not only the zombies were strengthened, but their evolution was hastened by the new virus. More than 1000 ten metres tall zombies inside the army was proof of it.

He thought about selling the zombies on the trading site, but there was a question of morality in his plans. He then decided to dispose of the zombies and gave the dead armies a proper rest.

Hela learned the order from the android system and she muttered in an affectionate voice, " Sleep."

The Zombies instantly caught on fire, burning their flesh and bones instantly. In less than 10 seconds, the only evidence that the zombie army ever existed was the armors they used to wear, scattered on the ground in front of Kai and Hela.

Kai held a scanner in his hand and scanned the surrounding area. The scanner started beeping as he held it all over the area.

"[No trace of the U-Virus.]" The scanner stopped beeping after a while. Kai finally let out a breath of relief after knowing for sure no virus had spread on others or had survived.

'Zombies are still risky.' He thought. He saw Hela pouting as she had lost her army, and decided to pour oil into the flame. "You know, Dawn had carried a naked girl into a bed after his battle."

Hela turned to look at him slowly. "Were you trying to make me mad?" She asked with a smile. "If that is so, then it's working." Although her face was smiling, her eyes weren't.

'That's payback for trying to get me to drink breast milk.' Kai thought slyly before he flew to the sky toward where the Fantastic Four were.

Reed Richards regrouped with the rest of his team/family after the war.

"The doctor is freaking scary." Johnny complained. He was checked from top to bottom by Kai to make sure he didn't carry viruses from another world. They also had to be injected with vaccines before they could enter the Earth.

"He is really good though. I could barely feel it when he injected me." Susan said, her complexion had become much better than before. If she had drunk the revitalising potion sooner, Kai wouldn't have to berate her and the team, which was something she dearly regretted.

"He makes mine hurt though." Johnny whined.

"I bet that he has a daughter." Ben chided as he felt only a parent would berate them the way Kai does. All of them were scolded by him in the short time they were together.

"Now now, are you talking shit about me?" Kai said as he landed smoothly behind the trio. At that time, Reed was having a checkup and getting his vaccines by Droid 41, a medical droid from the island.

"Are you a mutant?" Johnny asked as he saw Kai's wings.

"No. I don't have the X-genes. You have the mutants in your planets?" Kai replied. He really doesn't have any X-genes as his body was bought through the system.

"Yeah. Professor Xavier, Magneto, Rogue, and many more." Johnny said.

"I see. We will talk more on Earth. You will go back first with the SSV cruiser ship. Earth Fleet has sent one to pick you up." Kai said.

"Earth Fleet?" Ben was intrigued as he too was a pilot before this.

Dawn didn't allow Reed to enter aboard the Arcadia and he would be sent to earth using a cruiser instead. Reed Richard getting close to the Dark Matter engine was a recipe for disaster. The man's intelligence was without doubt but his wisdom stat has been stunted.

"What is the year on Earth now?" Susan asked. Yelena's ear perked up as she was nearby and heard the question. She interjected quickly before Kai could reply. At the same time, Reed walked toward the team after getting his shots.

"It's the year 3011. We are now in the 31st century. Are you from the same period in your universe?" Yelena asked them and acted in a curious manner. Reed, Susan and Ben quickly turned solemn and their faces were complicated.

Johnny however raised his fist and yelled out, "WOO-HOO!!! We're in the future!!!!"

Kai smacked the back of Yelena's head. "Owww~" She whined and rubbed her hurting head while Kai explained, "She is lying. We're in the year 2011."

"Wait seriously?" Johnny was the first one to react while the others were still processing the information. "Then how do you have a spaceship?"

He was confused because they too were in the year 2011, that was, before they were stuck in another dimension with no way out for an indeterminate amount of time.

"You guys don't have a spaceship?" Yelena teased.

"Well…Reed and Doom did make one before. But it clashed with the cosmic cloud and was destroyed. After that we never thought of making another one." Susan said.

"Only you have one?" Yelena asked truly this time.

Johnny replied this time as Yelena's pretty face intrigued him, "Yeah. I think the X-men have one?" He turned to Ben for confirmation.

"No. They don't have it. It could exit the earth's edge of outer space, but it can't be used for interstellar travel."

Reed finally said something after a period of indecision. "How's the peace on Earth?"He was silent for most because he didn't want his family to remember that they were angry at him.

"It's relatively peaceful. Periodic super-villain attack and alien invaders, but nothing we couldn't handle." Kai replied.

" We?" Susan asked.

"The Avengers. And also our VP."

One day after the war, Dawn and the rest of the Arcadia crew were still on Skrullos 3 to help keep the order on the planet. By this time, the news about the crew's might had spread all over the universe.

Odin and Zeus were especially elated after they heard the news.

Inside the Omnipotence city, Zeus in his skirt stood up from his golden satin-silk sheet bed where he was spending some time with his lovers.

"My Son! You have made Daddy proud!" Zeus twirled and celebrated his son's achievement. His patheon had been idle for hundreds of years now. Suddenly, his son's heroic deeds were sung far and wide across the whole universe.

"Make sure he comes to the banquet!" Zeus turned and announced to the other gods. He also sent a thunderbolt toward Hercules to summon him home to be celebrated. In doing so, he had hoped that Dawn would come with Hercules as they were apparently friends now. He even thought of sending Aphrodite to 'convince' Dawn, but he stopped his actions as he didn't want to offend a promising future ally.

"But tell her the news regardless. She is still working as a scribd for the mortals?" Zeus asked.

"I think the word is reporter." Hera answered him as she walked menacingly into his chamber. Zeus was stunned and couldn't hide what he was doing as smoothly as he did before.

"You will be celibate for a 100 years as punishment!" Hera cursed him, both verbally and literally.

"NOOOOO!" Zeus screamed.

A few floors above the Omnipotence city, Pluto narrowed his eyes when he heard Dawn's tales of might. "He may be a problem." He muttered underneath his breath.

Ares, the god of war, showed spite on the mention of Dawn's might after he heard about it. "Let's see if He is truly worthy of admiration when you come here." He said out loud.

In Asgard, Odin was punishing Thor who had lost his muscular figure after 3 months on Earth. The chubby Thor was punished by his father to battle 3 bilgesnipe at the same time without using his hammer.

"What happened mother? What spook father as such?" Thor asked his mother who came to watch him battle.

Frigga smiled softly as she responded to Thor. "Something terrible is happening to my son. And your father has been afraid." She too was afraid of the young girl she used to take care of.

"Odin? Afraid? How?" Thor asked in disbelief. With him being distracted, the bilgesnipe rammed its head on his bulging stomach, flinging him to the colosseum walls.

"Oh that is it. I will cook you personally after I defeat you." Thor declared to the smug bilgesnipe in front of him. But two more bilgesnipe rammed his body from behind before he could be ready. "AAAAAaaaaaa"

His screams became slower by the seconds as he was flung outside the colosseum. Friga let out a light chuckle as she saw it. "Grow Thor. May you survive." She muttered with no one listening to her.

Heimdall the Gatekeeper was tasked by Odin to find where the Arcadia ship's location was. He finally managed to lock his sight on the ship after Dawn had stationed the ship on Skrullos 3 for a day.

"Lady Sif. I found him." Heimdall notified Sif, the female Asgardian tasked with the mission to bring Dawn into Asgard previously. But her mission had changed a day before. Now, her mission was to politely invite Dawn into Asgard.

Odin had schemed to tie Dawn into Asgard whether by marriage or by forceful subordination in his preparation against Hela. Little did he know… Dawn was in bed with his fearful daughter at this moment.

Inside the Arcadia.

"Captain. The matter on the planet has been settled. Reinforcement has come from various parts of the galaxy and we don't need to guard here anymore." Ana informed as she scrolled her data on the tablet.

"Good. Set a path. We will go take one last trip before we get back to Earth." Dawn said. "To Knowhere."

Omake:

"Sleep." Hela muttered at the zombies in front of her.

"Why should we? When it's thriller night?" Ryan suddenly showed up from among the zombies and a music intro started playing.

[Thriller-Michael Jackson]

~AWOOO~

"Is that a freaking wolf?" Hela muttered in disbelief.

The intro music was playing and Ryan started to twist his hips.

"It's close to midnight and something evil's lurking In the dark." He started to sing as he danced.

"Is this really happening?" Hela asked as she turned to Kai. Suddenly, Kai smirked and joined Ryan with the zombies.

" Under the moonlight you see a sight that almost stops Your heart." Kai sang. Hela rolled her eyes and wanted to walked away, but Ryan was already behind her.

Ryan : " You try to scream, but terror takes the sound before You make it."

"I will beat you up." Hela warned Ryan.

Kai : "You start to freeze as horror looks you right between The eyes"

Ryan : You're paralyzed

Hela tried to fly away, but her eyes widened when she saw the new addition.

Dawn: 'Cause this is thriller, thriller night

And no one's gonna save you from the beast about to strike

You know it's thriller, thriller night

You're fighting for your life inside a killer

Thriller tonight

I'm gonna thriller tonight!

"To the right!" Ryan said. He and all the 100,000 zombies danced to the right together.

Dudum Dum dum dudum.

Dudum Dum dum dudum.

After a weird dance score, Hela woke up with Dawn next to her on their king size bed. She breathed a sigh of relief as the unreal experience she had was all a dream for her.

"I had a bad weird dream last night?" Hela mentioned to Dawn.

"What dream?"

"You. Ryan. and Kai dancing together with my zombies." She said cutely, reminding Dawn that he'd owed her 100,000 zombies.

"Perhaps.. A thrilling dream?" Dawn said mysteriously. Suddenly, the music started up again.

Author: Its thriller everyone. Happy Belated Halloween.
