47 Chapter 47

I appeared within a pure white room. White walls, white ceiling, and floor. Everything was white. Wait...

I looked around, my cloth was a white straitjacket but my arm was free, a white chair nailed to the floor, a white door...

Why am I back here? What happened? The last thing I remembered was trying to run into the speed force... Wait, is this the speed force? Why does it look like the Asylum?

A click suddenly came from the door to the room and I immediately tried to enter speed time but failed. I don't have my speed. Fuck.

The door fully opened and the nurse, the first person I killed and ate in this world walked through. She looked at me and smiled. The smile coupled with her hollow black eyes chilled me to the bone.

"Hello and welcome to the Speed Force, Rick Brandon, or should I say Carnage." The woman said, walking toward me.

"Speed force? So I am in the speed force. But, who are you?" I asked her while stretching. If I have to fight this woman again, I am confident in winning.

"Us? We are the speed force." The nurse said, closing the door behind her.

"So I am talking to the speed force? The source of my powers?" I said, confused.

"Yes." She said, still smiling at me. "Do you like this place? We thought you would like it since it was the place you gained your speed." The nurse said as she looked around before looking back at me. "How much do you know about the speed force?"

"It is the source of my speed?" I said, standing still and looking at her.

"Yes. You are correct... but also wrong." The woman said, still smiling at me with her hollow black eyes. "Let me tell you a little history. When the first subatomic particle sprang forth from the Big Bang to form reality as you know it, we were there. When the last proton decays, stops vibrating, and plunges thee universe into heat death, we'll be there too."

"So what's is your power?" I asked.

"We are a cosmic force based around velocity and movement and one of The Seven Forces of the Universe. We representation of reality in motion, being the very cosmic force that pushes space and time forward." The nurse said, suddenly appearing right in front of me, our nose touching. "And you are our first avatar." She said, in a demonic voice.

"Oh fuck!" I shouted, jumping back, my heart beating faster than the speed of light.

"You are who we chose to be the new avatar. If you fail the test, you will stay here for all of eternity." The woman said, black tears flowing down her hollow eyes and the room collapsing into itself. "If you pass the test, you will be able to go back to your world with faster speed and who knows, become my Servant."

"What is the test?" I asked, trying to stand straight as the world around me bend.

"The test? The test?" The woman glitched and appeared in front of me. "You have to kill them all. Kill them all again." It said, with a shrill.

I suddenly appeared in a wide Colosseum, the Colosseum where C-1 fought Goliath, with thousands of people sitting in the audience.

"Carnage!"

"Carnage!"

"Carnage!"

"Carnage!"

They all cheered simultaneously while stomping their foot. I tried to vibrate my hand but found out I have no speed, only my Kree physiology.

I looked toward the two iron gates that lead to the Coliseum, waiting for it to open up. What will I be fighting? Can I win?

Both the iron gate rose as the Colosseum became eerily quiet that you could hear an ant crawl. The ground started to rumble and stones within the Colosseum started bouncing.

Soon hundreds, if not thousands of people rushed through the gate. I looked at all of them, the electronic guy I killed, the guard of the guard who I bit of his fingers, mister freeze, Black... Oh fuck.

These are all the people I ever killed after coming to this world.
