Rangers of The Galaxy

Who's Next?

(UNIVERSE 1)

(MILKY WAY GALAXY)

(CLOSE TO OUR SOLAR SYSTEM)

NEMESIS MAN and DEMOLISH stared at each other intently; the former with an expression of anger, while Demolish was laughing softly; his teeth visible. While they were there, Star and Nebula stared at the duo who were aware of the presence of the goddesses.

“How do you wanna do this?”, DEMOLISH asked

“I'll destroy you… and ladies, stay out of this”, NEMESIS MAN said

Nebula exhales and turns to Star, “looks like it's not the time…not the time for you and I to have our final bout! I'll leave now”

“and tell SAI KOU I'm back”, Demolish said to Nebula as he slightly turned his head. On saying this, NEMESIS MAN took the chance to attack as he sped towards DEMOLISH; about to punch him, but DEMOLISH quickly moved to the side and tries to deliver an attack as well which NEMESIS MAN avoided.

They began to launch punches at one another, not none of them had gotten hit yet.

Nebula was gone already while Star reluctantly heads back to Earth.

.

As NEMESIS MAN and DEMOLISH continued throwing punches and flying around, they began to disappear and appear behind each other trying to deliver counter blows, but this wasn’t working either; it was as if they were equal. But how would this end if they are?

(IC 1101 GALAXY)

Amazing Girl of the 149th Universe was before the god she encountered. He cracked his knuckles and said,

“You don't look tough, but I feel toughness”

“Yes… it'll be the last time you feel a thing”

He snapped his fingers and thunder struck her out of nowhere, and poof, she's nowhere, he smirks.

“over here”, he heard her voice from behind, causing him to turn briskly. She was unscathed, and putting on a smile on her face.

“one thing I avoid is… prolonging a battle when I've played out all the fast ways to end your life”, She spoke with confidence, “I won't need to show all my moves… just 2 percentage would be enough to finish the job… come at me”, she said, but before he attacked, she’d made her move; by moving her were, a rift occurred around the god; causing imbalance, but the latter quickly maintained his stance and with a spread of his arms, lightning rushed in all directions; so massive some destroyed planets, while Amazing Girl simply blocked it with her hands.

Something as weird about what she did; as she absorbed the power and in a flash, she speedily smacked the god, but from behind; then engulfs him in an energy he couldn’t break free from.

“I have attained ultimate power in my Universe… and I have no time to waste with you”

She raised her hands while the god was trying to break free, then she clasped her palms together that it sent out an omnidirectional wave of multicolored energies.

She freed the god, but now taking him by his neck with her left hand, “It's over”, she claimed

But as she was about to hit him with her glowing right hand, something happened.

.

******************

.

Space tore open as NEMESIS MAN and DEMOLISH had fought even into the IC 1101 Galaxy; their movement was so quick that they weren't in the Galaxy again, but Amazing Girl was able to process and see them, but does she know who they are?

The god's hands sparkles lightning and he pushes Amazing Girl backwards as he conjured yeah lighting shaped weapons; throwing one at Amazing Girl

She grabbed it with her hand, but from behind came the god; close to striking her down, but she had gotten behind him; grabbing his shoulder as she moved at normal speed, while he looked slow to her.

Amazing Girl's right hand generated a ball of multicolored energy and she blasted him off.

The aftermath was the destruction of deserted worlds on a straight line and no trace of her opponent.

.

*****************

.

NEMESIS MAN and DEMOLISH were fighting from dimensions to dimensions; bashing each other endlessly and using equal moves at the same time.

“this will never end”, DEMOLISH said

“it will”, NEMESIS MAN replies with a scoff.

(UNIVERSE 1)

(EARTH)

(LONDON)

Outside Mr. Gates house, the alien was still weighed to the ground by Mister Marvel (Stanley) and Star was now questioning the alien,

“What is Nebula planning?”, she asked, “To bring back SAI KOU?”

“RRGH….”, the alien growls.

Star bends and looks into his eyes, then made her decision on the spot; she created a sword of light and swung it to the side; his head was gone.

“You just killed it”, Felicia said

“Yes. I did, because it deserves to die”, Star answered, “we have to shift our focus to Nebula now”

“hopefully Photo power keeps failing if he finds the planet”, Stanley sighs deeply

“so where do we find this Nebula?”, Mr. Stewart asked

.

******************

.

Photo Power was on his knees; on a rock slowly moving in space; he was panting heavily as he had been totally exhausted. He’d tried to get the ring over and over, but kept failing; what's left to do? To give up or keep trying?

He rose up; staring at the planet intently, “This is not good… I thought I could be the ultimate… I saw myself as a very powerful person; easily whooping asses of heroes on Earth, but I came across that Phantom Knight, he handed mine to me; I met the other stranger, and a punch sent me to space; the white ring quest… infinite numbers of soldiers attacked me all at once, and out of nowhere. What do I do?”

.

*****************

.

Adaptoid was in space, holding a small circle device in her hand, on it was displayed figures 1 to 5, with 1 and 2 being red, while the 3 other numbers in color black. She’d dealt with Phantom Knight, and Sapper, now who's next?

She clicked the number 3, and it began to display something on her screen; from some writings and inscriptions to a picture; a picture of a mighty and gigantic looking cosmic being. She smirked and looked closely; taking note of every detail, and immediately, she disappeared and appeared in a Galaxy half ruined; the most common thing was rubbles suspended in space; these rubbles are actually large rocks though.

She'd appeared before the mighty being she viewed earlier; Adaptoid sighs, staring at this cosmic being who looked more like a machine, but isn't a machine; linings on his body glowed red, and he could crush a solar system in his palm at this current size.

He was aware of Adaptoid's presence, and she knew he was, so she levitates to his head level and spoke first,

“I am Adaptoid… the one who makes sure vengeance is assured—”

“Hoi”, he cuts in, “what have you come here for?”

“To question you, Howzar… as to why you destroyed races, lives… all innocent lives you destroyed… why did you do it?”

Howzar was silent at first, “I did no such thing… I was greeted by unwanted guests who did this in our battle; if you've come hoping to take me down, you'd only be destroying the remains of worlds with living beings”

Adaptoid grins and closed her eyes to think, “I'll have to move to the fourth”, she thought, “he doesn't deserve to be punished… he's been justified”

She opened her eyes and replied, “I'm leaving now”. So she clicked to cancel the number 3; moving on to number four which she was about to check, “Who's next?”, she said to herself.

(SOMEWHERE IN NOWHERE)

(ON AN ISLAND)

Phantom Knight being here alone was meditating; his legs were crossed and his eyes shut. He maintained a straight face and was looking into his past; the very reason why he is what he is.

Being a formidable warrior who helped the kingdom against Viking raiders and other powerful kingdoms, he was one of the King's guards, and thus protected the throne directly, but there were enemies who plotted against him; with claims that he's been too favored for be now has power over them. They made sure the whole kingdom rose up against him, and this instigated his actions.

He looked down on everyone, knowing he's more than just a mere human, he was a superhuman. He killed everyone in the whole kingdom; hunting them down when some even tried to flee.

And he never truly knew who he was until his actions attracted extra terrestrial beings he called gods, they punished him for his actions by putting him on a world where he’d be trapped in a cave; yet he broke free and killed every last person on that planet before going back into the cave.

He watched over a special sword; carved out of the unknown (it wasn't revealed to him) and stayed years; no food, no water. He was no longer a man, but like a dark f**king spirit.

The visions aren't too clear right now; he can't remember all the details, but that should be enough for now.

.

Phantom Knight opened his eyes and stood up; saying to himself,

“I know how to leave this place…”, he smirks, “I must die!”

.

*****************

.

Meanwhile Sapper was still suffering the eternal punishment Adaptoid gave unto her; screaming in pain as she was being lashed over and over again; pain enough to cause death, but death couldn’t come.

Daniella Tucker; one of the Rangers of the Galaxy was in a room; laid on a bed and probably asleep because it was dark already; she rolled to the side like she felt uneasy, then again her eyes twitched, her fingers moved and she suddenly jerked up, only to be blasted by a green beam of energy which pushed her back and caused her to vanish slowly; she tried to yell, but she couldn't, she was gone.

The assaulter was none other than Nebula Crane; revealed to be smiling while on the bedside, but before she could leave, everything slowed down and in a flash, Naomi Green (Swift Racer) had sped into the room to block Nebula's way.
