Ravenack captive in the multiverse

The world seemed to have all the colours of a very real nightmare. Discover that you exist in several realities at the same time without even realizing it. What about the story that the future has already happened?

And free will? Does not exist?

Imagine a place more or less magical as Angel did, where the world does not pass at the same pace for everyone. There are no time clocks. And a fight between boyfriends can be to make absolute chaos. Imagine distortions of time in reality that we don't even realize.

Time is actually a place, where you walk without stopping. Let's say that there really is a place where there is no time or space in a way that makes sense to us. You would be in different places but you would be the same person, with the same conscience. This means that in a version of the facts in a universe Angel would have fought with the captain of the ship and left. In another version, she might not even have left the ship.

The idea that is lived in an infinity of universes, each one with its particular reality within the Cosmos makes the Multiverse. It is a place where everything, but everything can happen. The possibilities for life like that would be endless.

Angel was beginning to ignore all theories of astonished relativity.

It was a crazy world. Creatures that should never have existed were now real and dangerous threats. Nature itself rebelled against climate change, presenting them with an unknown ecosystem. She blinked with absolute certainty that she had finally gone crazy. All the apparent calm in front of a corpse that spoke and smiled, bared its teeth, evaporated.

Her eyes popped out of their sockets as they stared at the most impossible image of their dreams. Insects? why did it have to be exactly insects? She hated bugs! In an apocalyptic world, they were no longer just bothering little creatures.

The animal that emerged from the arid land with a frightening tremor was a gigantic and unfriendly scorpion. Just like the woman who looked at her very seriously. Not even Spike's screams could break the hypnotic trance.

That woman was ... Angie swallowed, seriously considering how much eating chocolate could interfere with the silhouette. She couldn't believe those hips ...

-You shouldn't have run from Spartackus! - Your older self exhibited anger and lack of patience. - Want to explain to me why to run away from Spartackus while the whole planet is being invaded, girl? Come on, Angie! It's not the end of the world to get a boyfriend.

Of all the worst nonsense ... Just getting involved with a married man, or a committed alien ... Nobody was that unlucky.

-Don't you dare say what I should or shouldn't do. You have no idea what happened and ...

Angel shook the head looking for calm to deal with his younger, scared self.

- I know exactly what happened. I know everything. And more than you can imagine. It won't be like that, Angie. Scarllet is wrong. You are not like them. You have never seen a K'Aldriant before.

Angie in her sixteen years saw only the world that she envisioned to fall apart. It was all together. Disappointments, the lack of a family that really cared about her and the certainty that all of her most daring dreams of meeting someone were over.

If Scarllet had really told the truth, it was still her fault that the people of Édrin had been forced to leave the planet. Zorack had every right to hate her. It was also her fault that he had lived as a slave in the realm of horrible creatures. Everything is his fault. And everything was going to happen exactly as before. This time it would be the planet Earth that the selection that the aliens made among humanity choosing compatible hosts.

A muffled sob escaped his throat as he bit his lips, fighting back tears.

-Not! You definitely don't know. You cannot assess what it is. she shouted out of her mind. - I will never have a family. I will never have someone who likes me. A damn hybrid freak that shouldn't even exist. Is that what your colony is for? Do you realize what they did to my life?

Spike looked at Angel in surprise.

-What do you mean, colony? What nonsense is that? he asked, perplexed.

Years of loneliness emerged as barriers of collapsing repression. The orphanage where everyone looked at her with fear after accidents happened. It was in no way her fault for not being able to control those accidents. The succession of foster homes where she had never been accepted. And the inevitable comments after she disappeared for five days and was found in another state when everyone imagined her dead.

-Angie ...- Angel tried to argue penalized without wanting to remember everything that had been left behind. - I know how you feel...

-No! - she continued to shout uncontrollably. - You don't know how I feel. What kind of thing am I? What did your scientists do to me? I could have killed Zorack, you know? Scarllet is absolutely right. A freak of K'Aldriants. I almost killed Zorack because I could feel and hear the blood that pulsed in his veins and I let myself go ...

The rest of the words were swallowed up by crying at last.

"Have you seen what this strange girl is like? Who wants to do such a thing around?"

"These accidents always happen to her close by. The chair caught fire from nowhere. Suddenly."

"It is better to try to be more friendly this time. Aa and her husband are the last chance to have a family. You are already sixteen. If you return to your foster home, where do you intend to go when you turn eighteen?"

"She's unbearable, Ana. She doesn't even know how to behave like a normal teenager. Did you imagine what she did missing for five days?"

The tears flowed down without Angel being able to stop them in her despair. Voices she heard so much when they whispered when she passed echoed in her mind. There was the muffled sound of a thud and the tree next to the burned-out of nowhere, without anyone waiting.

-But what...?

Spike backed away with horror lighting his eyes as he faced his friend.

Angie started involuntarily to retreat limp, crying even more.

"I ... I didn't want to ..." she murmured in a trance, her arms wrapped around her body in abandonment.

Angel, despite having left all that forgotten in the past, tried to figure out how to resolve the dire situation. Perhaps he would have had better than older Zorack was there to get around the eminent chaos. Personally, even after so many years, Angel would be able to argue with Scarllet as if the offences had happened that day. Scarllet at first had done everything she could to disrupt the romance with Zorack. If I was younger I would make old feuds very easily. It was unbelievable that Max was so patient with that Edriana.

-Angie, look at me.- Angel's voice came out tense. - I know you can believe it's the end of the world, but it's not. Just give Zorack time to recover and leave the infirmary, dear.

The teenager's eyes widened with genuine horror.

-Could have killed ... He hates being dead. - the words were said with difficulty between the sobs suffered. - Scarllet is right. I detract from everything I touch. My mother died...

Angel swore at the edge of his fury, trying not to get carried away by frustration. He could very easily return to the Spartackus and argue with Scarllet seriously. In fact nothing would give you more pleasure at the moment.

-Please, my dear. Give me the mallet. You don't know the danger you're running with that device ... he said trying to get closer.

Angie continued to retreat livid. Time travel simply did not exist.

- If Zorack hadn't found me ...- She started to regret.

-Not! Do not do it!

-It is true. If I had stayed in the pool locker room on Friday, I would never have missed it. They were going to lock the door and they wouldn't meet me until Monday.

-No, Angie. You don't know what you're doing! - Angel's scream came too late.

Nobody expected it. It appeared in an instant like a cloud of magnetic energy in midair and growing with strength and decided to expand more and more. Lights appeared like a kaleidoscope of different shades beginning to surround the teenager despite her attempt to get away.

Her scream still echoed for a moment. A fractional fraction of seconds and the sight of a door appeared before her astonished eyes. The floor disappeared under her feet as she felt suspended in the air without her lungs being able to replenish the precious oxygen.

Angie had the impression of being dragged by invisible arms that looked like claws as she wrapped her around without being able to escape. The strangled scream stuck in her throat. And suddenly everything around her went dark and gloomy when her body fell against the smooth, cold floor.

Her eyes closed as she let herself plunge into the blessed darkness.

Her hand on a dull thud crashed against the lifeless wall and her fingers let out a small, shiny, glowing sphere of energy. Still, she thought she still heard voices.

You are the first of our kind. The queen of a lethal and indestructible race. At my side, we will dominate the Universe.

Your gift is the motivation for my creation. Give me more motivation!
