I forgot to add a disclaimer last chapter, so here it is:
I do not own DBZ or anything associated properties.
Yeah, nice and simple.
Oh, and in this story, Whis is in fact the Creator god. This is
not a copy of Captain Space-the first video I watched on youtube
that stated anything about Whis said that he was the Creator.
And while I know this is not true, I still stick with it-hell,
when Captain Space introduced him as the Creator, I was not
surprised in the least. I in fact would've been greatly
surprised if he was not... but I know differently now. It still
sounds cool though, so as I said before, I'm sticking with it,
but thanks to anyone who would've pointed it out if I had not
mentioned anything, for you would've just been trying to correct
and improve this story, which at any time is greatly appreciated,
unless I'm...like...fifty chapters ahead haha!
Now...on with the chapter! Welcome to the second installment of
Return of Evil!

From the Shadows: Part Ii: Elimination
The telepathic conversation cut off-the three people in question
resolving to keep an eye on the goings-on in that universe.

-
Whis knew above all else that this was a time for
preparation-that the people of this universe had years, and that
was if they were lucky. Perhaps, Whis pondered, he would
wait-building up his forces, making final plans-placing people in
a false sense of security. We will not be fooled, he resolved to
himself. We will stay vigilant. I will personally make sure of
that.

-

King Kai's planet...
King Kai had not the slightest idea of what was happening-ever
since Beerus and Whis returned to their place-things had started
spinning out of control.
Who was this-and why was he doing, well, what he was doing?
He was simply at a loss.

Until-
BOOOOOOOMMMMM!

-
After absorbing malevolent being after malevolent being, his grin
widened and widened.
Ahahahahahahahahahah! All the universe's evil beings had been
absorbed, and Herraidous threw back his head, and roard with
uncontrolled laughter-a god-aweful cackle that radiated for miles
around. His power exploded in giant shockwaves-flattening entire
solar systems. This is invigorating! Hahah! Another shockwave
exploded from him-causing yet more devistation. These hravere
will soon know their place-I'd say it's only a couple decades
away before this universe at least is completely and utterly
ruined! It will be done on my first strike back here-they will
not survive me. Now... He consentrated his energy, and vanished
from the seventh universe.

-
Twelfth Universe...
Dominus had just returned from destroying a few hundred
planets-he was a tall figure-with golden metallic armer,
jewellery on him in plenty, and short, spiky hair. He liked his
job quite a lot-to assert dominance over lesser beings was
something he took very seriously. He was by know means a Frieza,
but he still made it clear that he was the god of his universe.
CRACK!
Suddenly, a fist struck the back of his head-as he turned, dazed
as blood trickled down the injury-he saw him. Dark skin,
red-rimmed eyes, fanged teeth, and long, spiky hair that stood
completely virtically upwards. He adorned a tail that snaked out
behind him, and two sharp horns atop his head. He had a normal
sized mouth and nose, but he had powerful triceps and biceps. He
had a tattoo running from his arms, down his shoulders to just
above his stomach. It was in the shape of a hand, with a circle
in the middle. The circle had engraved in it the word
Herraidous. He adorned a smirk of triumph on his demonic face.
CRACK-coom!
The fist struck Dominus's forehead next, and through blurry
vision, he could sense the god-aweful, fowl energy signature that
practically radiated from this new being.
Through the pain coursing through his body, Dominus propelled
himself upwards-bringing his hands upwards to above his head, he
consentrated his energy into one massive orb of destruction.
"Learn your place, whoever you are! Aaaaaaaaaaaahhhhh!" The
energy orb fired from his hands-roaring forwards with the
entensity of an entire solar system. He did not bother with
names for his attacks; for that, in his opinion, was just a waste
of valuable time, especially when you're in the middle of a
life-or-death battle. The blue energy blast crashed against
Herraidous's hand. The roaring and pushing of destructive energy
seemed to have no affect; he chuckled softly to himself as he
wrenched it upwards and out of his way with telikinesis-firing it
away. It struck a nearby planet with a massive eruption of
destruction.
"Wh-wha...!" Dominus was beyond shocked; this was the first time
anything like this had ever happened!
"Cease your pointless struggle-I'm going to send you on your way
anyway, besides, you know you're simply outmatched-there's just
nothing you can do that would prove effective against me." It was
always amusing to watch a "god" submit-to watch the fight leave
their eyes. He relished the hopelessness that now encompassed
Dominus-and he knew as well as Herraidous did that he was simply
outmatched.
Herraidous bought his hand down in a slashing motion, a beam of
dark, sharp energy piercing Dominus through his Chest before he
even had time to register what was happening. Herraidous smirked
to himself as the Hakaishin of the Twelfth universe collapsed,
blood pouring from the open wound.
"Wh-wha...ak...n-not...like...this...!" Dominus's blood was
cascading all over the ground on which he lay in great puddles;
he is not long for this world, Herraidous thought with hunger in
his eyes-hunger for pain and despair and death in those cruel
eyes.
He focussed his energy, materialising a small Ki blast in his
right palm. He threw it, exploding and sending Dominus into the
next life on impact.
Herraidous focussed his energy once again, and disappeared again.

-
Tenth Universe...
Dolosus prided himself on his cunning; the way he went about
destroying planets, he thought, was quite creative. He would
make them destroy each other-plant lies and bring news of
betrayals-making them turn upon each other. This allowed him to
train and improve in power while entire solar systems practically
whiped out each other. He was tall and slender, wearing
camouflaging clothes that allowed him to hide in the shadows.
There was one thing he could not prepare for, however-one thing
that no amount of cunning could've prepared him for.
CROOOOMMMM!
Along with the accompanying explosion, he could feel the energy
signature this new, mysterious being gave off. It was
fowl-evil-tainted to such a level that not even "Pure Evil" could
describe it. He gasped in sudden fear-for he had heard the
legends. No...th-this...can't...be...t-true...! If this was
indeed who he suspected it was, than he had no chance.
The legend spoke of a being unmatchable, a being with cunning
many times greater than his own-a being of destruction-of
darkness-of pure, utter evil. He trembled. Only one, as far as
he knew, had unmachable power such as this...
He simply could not, at present, see any way what so ever out of
this.
Suddenly, one fleeting thought came to him. If he could somehow
divert his attention... yes...perhaps this just may...
Dolosus quickly created a copy of himself-much like Tien's
Multy-form technique, except the clone was completely separate.
Then he gave the clone a little Divine Ki-strength he would
regain with a day or two's rest-and suppressed his energy. He
thought of his cunning-of the thousands upon thousands of times
when things had seemed impossible and yet he, with his immense
cunning and intellectuality had prevailed-for becoming a god was
not easy by any stretch of the imagination. He propelled himself
upwards, keeping low and taking advantage of the shadows.

-
Herraidous laughed to himself as he approached the energy
signature he knew to be Dolosus's. His grin vanished however
when he sensed that it was not his-no, it was just a duplicate!
Oh yes, it was convincing, but he had not mastered that technique
perfectly-the clone's energy signature was artificial. The
Multy-clone technique was quite useful-it was not the same as the
Multy-form because there actually were two separate parts of you.
If one mastered it to a great degree, the energy signature of the
clone would be perfect-indistinguishable from the original.
Dolosus, however clever the plan may have been, his clone was not
perfect.
Herraidous raised his hand, and a dark energy orb blasted
outwards, incinerating the clone on contact with a powerful
explosion.
He pursued the real Dolosus through the sky-now back to being
quite at ease once again.

-
Dolosus turned in mid-air-knowing that to run now would be
totally pointless. And so it was that he met the demonic being
head-on, separated by only a distance of about twenty feet in
deep-space. He tried to think of anything-anything that he could
use to get himself out of this-any plan that may help him
survive. But there was nothing. Absolutely nothing.
Herraidous chuckled-it was a chuckle of pure sadism-Dolosus, for
all his cunning and planning, had absolutely no way out of this.
Herraidous couldn't help but be amused at this hravere's
stubbornness-yes, his plan was clever-he'd at least give that to
him before Dolosus finally succumbed to death.
As humiliating as he knew this would be, Dolosus now found
himself having no other option. He did not like this one bit-he
totally detested this-but it was quite necessary.
"P-please...don't do this-don't kill me!" He sank to his knees
and bowed his head. "I-I could work for you-you could use
someone at divine level, could you not? I could do things that it
would take great effort for you-not the things themselves, but
effort to create a minion that could carry those things out
besides yourself..." He looked upwards, meeting the red-rimmed
eyes above his-staring down at him with something akin to
amusement.
"Firstly, no. I can create beings that can do perfectly well
what I assign them-and I simply cannot trust you not to turn on
me or to just disappear altogether when my guard is somewhat
down. I'm not even going too far into your mind-and I can still
see the deception. Taking all this into account, what do you
honestly think my answer is going to be? Nice try though, your
cunning is, I think, only second to myself and the Creators."
"W-wait! I would not do any of those thing-"
He was abruptly cut off however, as Herraidous, having had enough
of this, blasted him into nothingness with a deafening explosion
that flattened the entire solar system.

-
Seventh Universe...
Check-in Station...
The giant, horned judge of souls sitting at his enormous desk
was contemplating something.
He had been told-not requested, but told-by Supreme Kai that he
was to revive Cell at once-the last surviver and escapee of
Hell's chrisis. He had told him that he himself had received
orders from a higher-up, that something was coming that could
potentially see the end of at least this universe-perhaps far
more.
So he had-he had pulled out a "Life" stamp from one of the draws
and stamped it down upon Cell's profile.
He was contemplating the meaning of this being-who, apparently,
was higher than the Supreme Kaioshin-contemplating what or who
would bring upon them this, if this person was
correct-destruction.

-
Cell-on the Supreme World of the Kaioshin-found that the halo
atop his head had vanished, and grinned, as his bio-electric aura
flared to life around him, blowing the two deities back as it
expanded.
"Hahaha! At last! Whatever is attacking my universe, it'll have
to go through me first, for this is my domain!" He chuckled,
placing his index and middle fingers to his forehead and
disappearing in a flash with Instant Transmission.

-
He reappeared just as a voice sounded in their heads-Cell did not
recognise it, but the others knew it to be Whis's.
To explain things, the telepathic voice started, a being of pure
darkness has just attacked your universe. His name is
Herraidous, and to make things clear, he is the incarnation of
Darkness-all the destruction over the millions of years-all the
people with ambitions to take over the galaxy or whatever they
were-none of that would've existed without Herraidous. For if he
does not exist, so darkness in their hearts cannot manifest.
After absorbing all of this universe's darkness into himself, he
has regained some of his power-all of which he would be
practically unmatchable with. He will likely pretend to
disappear for perhaps decades, but he will be waiting-preparing,
gathering his forces. We all must stay vigilant; or we risk
being unprepared when he next strikes this universe. Being
unprepared against this enemy is certain death-I have fought him
long, long ago, I speak from experience when I say that this will
be the hardest war you have ever fought. For this will not be a
battle-but a war, potentially dragging existence itself into the
crossfire. The reason Cell is alive is because you need to push
aside differences and work together, enemies or not, to even have
a chance of stopping him.
The Z fighters were shocked-but had no time to dwell upon it as
Whis continued.
I trust you can do this-you may not know it, but I was keeping
watch on the entire universe, and saw you-you stood out as a
light in the darkness. I have seen you rise from beings who
thought Frieza and his family were invincible to beings who were
able to contend with Bojack, Buu, Jenemba, a Super Namekian by
the name of Slug, a corrupted Saiyan by the name of broly, and
more. This shows me that you have it within you to keep
fighting, no matter what comes your way.
You're wrong, interupted Vegeta. Most Saiyans, while not as
destructive or mad as Broly, were similar-carrying out similar
deeds-we were almost the same as him-taking pleasure in death and
destruction. So what exactly do you mean? Vegeta demanded.
Yes-you're quite right. However, things will be revealed in due
time, things that were purposely erased from your races
history-things that Herraidous himself removed.
Vegeta froze in shock, as did everyone else.
Train, Whis continued. Prepare, for a war the likes of which you
have never seen is fastly approaching.

-
Author's note: The mind-reading that Herraidous describe, I got
the idea from Harry potter, so just a reference there. The hand
with the circle in its palm, is a design from Deltora Quest-the
Shadow Lord's mark. Dolosus sinking to his knees? Well, if
Divine beings can survive in space and create beings, they,
theoretically, can creat air and sound, and solidity in which to
land on, that idea originated from Captain Space, but it
definitely makes sense, so I think anyone can use it in the right
situation.
Eh guise! Hope you enjoyed the second installment of Return of
Evil, because I certainly enjoyed writing it!
Stay tuned for the next chapter, coming soon!
Next time, on Dragon Ball z...wait...no...I suck at that...so see
you next time...on...nooooooo!
