I was relaxing in my home in my favourite chair. A glass of pineaple juice was within my reach. I took a sip of it and relaxed into my chair. I had some time to kill before I had to go to my office. So I took my phone and surfed the net. That is when I saw there was a new trailer of the Avengers Endgame. That was my favourite movie you know. After watching the trailer I sat back. That was mind blowing. I couldn't wait for the movie to be released. The marvel movies changed my life altogether. Iron man inspired me to pursue an Engineering degree.
Still it was very difficult for me to watch most of the heros turning to dust in Infinity war. It was a huge cliff-hanger at the end of that movie. Suddenly I had a pain in the heart that I could not bear. I tried to call for help but all that came from my mouth was a gurgled sound as blood began to pour out from my mouth. Oh man I am having a heart attack. With that thought everything faded to black.
The next time I regained my conscious I was in a white world. It was stark white not even a speck of dust. I am not a religious person but the situation I am in is beyond my understanding. I started to doubt myself. Maybe I am not dead. Maybe I am just dreaming.
"Stephen my son, you are not dreamong. You are unfortunately dead." said a voice
" What.. who is there. Show yourself." I screamed panicked
"I do not have a form my child." the voice said
"Are you god." he asked tentatively
"In a sense. I am a primordial my child. I travel throughout the multiverse watching life grow anew while I stay enternal." the voice said
"The multiverse theory is true." he asked
"Yes indeed. There are many worlds wothin worlds. Reality within reality. An endless space of multiple universe, never ending, infinite." the voice said
"What do you want with me." he asked tentatively
"From time to time I travel to different worlds and select a soul that takes my fancy. Have you read fanfiction stories." the voice asked excitedly
"Uhh, yes" Stephen answered
"Well, then you are familiar with the self insert stories are you not. You humans are a crafty bunch. So many ideas and imaginations. Thanks to your wonderful race beings like me can have so much entertainment. Anyways what I was coming to say was that you have been selected for a unique opportunity. You have the proud prevelage of being inserted into a fictional universe." the voice said
"What but I don't want to do that." he said
"Oh then what do you want to do now that you are dead." the voice asked
"Mmm, I don't know." he answered truthfully
"Well then I see no problem. Besides you will enjoy where I am sending you. " the voice said
"Where are you sending me" he asked
"Your favourite universe Stephen. The Marvel Cinematic Universe." tthe voice said grandly
"The MCU. You can do that." he asked excitedly
"Oh yes. Now I will give you some knowledge about yourself as well as all that you need for the challenges that you will face soon.' the voice said
" Now wait just a moment. I have not agreed to anything." he said hotly
" Oh come on. I know you are basically jumping up and down in joy in your mind." the annoying voice said
"Fine you got me. Besides I have nnothing to do now that I am dead. So who am I. Tony stark, Thor, spiderman are my most favourite." he said eagerly
"There are many such self inserts my dear Stephen. Let's do something different this time." the voice said
"Is it Loki." he asked
"Sorry he is already booked. No you will find out soon enough. Now be careful. I am giving you a life time opportunity here. So don't waste it away by doing silly things. Now enjoy the ride." the voice said
Then the white world cracked and shattered like a glass. A tear in space formed infrint of him and sucked into it. Stephen felt as if he was being squeezed through a tube. He lost all sense of what was happening around him.
Finally he regained his bearings. He felt really cold and weired. He tried to raise hos hands but there was no feeling. He couldn't even see anything. That's when a wave of memories assulted his mind. When those memories were processed he finally realised where he was, or rather who he was. He concentrated and with a surge of light he formed a humanoid body in the space he was floating aimlessly. He looked down and saw his true form. A white bluish coloured gigantic brain floating in space.
He was reborn as Ego the dad of Peter Quill of the Guardians of galaxy. He couldn't believe it. He was a freaking Celestial. A race of beings that predates the formation of Marvel Universe. This was all good and well but the immediate problem was he was floating in space. There was no meaning to this lonely existence. He didn't know how long he stayed there. Time had no meaning and he worked the full time to use his powers to propell himself.
But as time passed more and more of his powers surfaced. Just like Ego said in the movies his mind began to expand and his powers were beginning to be refined. With cosiderable effort he began to manipulate the molecules around him and constructed a sphere around the brain. He coated the sphere with thick metal plates to increse the armour. With this done he created a rudimentary propulsion system and began to navigate the space.
But no matter where he searched he could not find any life forms. To distract himself from falling prey to depression he studiously experimenyed with his powers. With rigorous practice he was finally able to master molecular manipulation.
The very next thing that he did was to master his power over light. This was more complex than he thought it would be. Because the light that he had was not just some mere light. It was more like a collective chords that could absorb or transfer energy. So he decided to test the limits of his power on a star. If Thor could withstand the power of a star then as a Celestial he can go beyond that.
On his quest to find life he found a lone star with no planets near it. He extended his light chords and send them towards the star. The first many attempts were failure as its structure lost its integrity once it passed a certain distance. But he still tried again and again. After each attempt paseed he was able to push the distance further and further. Finally after so many attempts he was able to project the chords to the star. Then with a thought he began to absorb the energy from the star. He began to map the material composition of the star and began replicating them into his own spherical cocoon. The precious metals that formed in the star were now availeble to him now. He stoped feeding off the energy from the star and began his journey anew.
Again the endless space bored him to death. But with the materials collected from the star he began to form a space ship around himself and used this ship powered by his energy to travel the universe. This allowed him to cover vast distances faster. After a long time of travel he came across a sight that filled him with joy. A ship jumped into his location.
He studied the ships design and recognised it from the movie Thor the Dark world. A ship of Dark Elves could be seen infront of him. He immediately propelled his ship towards them. The black ship open fired upon him but no damage could be done upon his person. He launched his light chords upon the enemy ship and brought it under his command. He sucked in the power of the ship and made it a floating construct in space.
He formed himself inside the ship in a humanoid form. The dark elves rushed in with there guns and began firing red energy blasts. But all of it passed harmlessely through his body.They stopped firing and looked at each other confused.
" My turn." he said.
With a snap of his fingers, his light spread across the ship spearing into every single Dark Elves in an instant. They all fell dead on the floor. He collected all their bodies and dumped them into space. He landed his brain into the ship and after that he powered up the systems of the ship. With the ability of the ship to access jump points he set the coordinates of Earth from the data bank of the ship. The dark elves called the Earth as Midgard and from the basic information in the system it was a backwater planet with no technological advancements. Then there was a whole lot of information regarding Asgard. The dark elves are now at war with Asgard. This made him realise that he was so far back in time as Odin himself was not even king of Asgard.
That was a little disappointing as he would virtually sentencing himself to some very boring years in Earth. But his yearning for his home planet could not be denied. So he engaged the jump point and entered near a point in space near Earth. With ease his ship descented down towards the European continent. He chose the future Russia as his landing ground.
Once ship landed he stepped out and set his feet on Earth and breathed in the fresh air. Around him birds chirped and the sound of a stream flowing could be heard. Taking a deep breath he launched himself to the sky and flew around with a scream of joy. He observed the many mountains that littered across the landscape, the birds that flew in the sky, the animals that were peacefully sleeping and playing with each other. He enjoyed all of it for some time but returned back to the ship and landed upon it.
He have centuries to spend now. Until the human race is a little developed he will not be interfering with them . So he cloaked his ship and took his brain and began to dig into the Earth. He will be creating a sanctuary for all his works that he was about to do and to do some very interesting things to this land.
He placed his brain down deep into the Earth. Then with a powerful surge he began to exert his influence across the land. A powerful wave of power swept along the land. Every trees, plants and even grass came under his influence. He left out the humans and animals from this process. He began to create natural barriers like huge mountains and rocks around his position for some safety measures. Forests with thick trees began to grow around him under his influence. There was virtually no limit to his power as anything and everything came under his control. Now that he was connected with the world he could easily influence and reshape it to his designs.
But all these can be done at a later time . Now he will be going to a long sleep. His integration into this planet must be completed and this is the best way to do that. After a few hundred years he will wake again. Then the world will be shaped in his desire. Until then Good night Earth.
