In Another Time, In Another Place...
5,000 years later...
The being was resistant to the heat of the sun. I also resisted it, thanks to Professor Warburton's armor. It charged, holding claws sharp enough to shear steel. I cut left, jets straining with the effort. I raised the gluon gun, took aim and blasted it right in the back. That only seemed to make it angrier. It charged again, this time catching me on the left arm. It was a glancing blow, but it threw me off balance. I recovered quickly, taking aim once more. This time the blast caught it in what can be called a face only by stretching the definition to it's utmost limit. It still wasn't enough. I thought of how I was gonna beat this thing. It would require a tremendous amount of energy. Wasn't there one right below us?
I switched the energy absorption capacitors on. The power would quickly overload the gluon gun, but it would be expelled before any significant damage could be done. I leveled the weapon at the being. The energy reserves peaked, and I fired. The being was hit with over eight hundred megatons of energy. This proved fatal to it, and it broke down into nothingness immediately. Suddenly, I felt something in my pocket begin to move. A Time Stone, followed by the other six, floated out, and began to spin counterclockwise. Just then, seven other gems appeared, spinning clockwise. I began to feel strange. Suddenly, the fourteen gems disappeared in a blinding flash. I was in a blank void. I saw images of people. One was of a young man with a determined look on his face. Another held a girl, who I believed had the most beautiful face I had ever seen.
Then, he appeared. "Well, well, it seems we have a slight delay on our hands. No matter. Our employers will still accept this turn of events, nonetheless." He adjusted his tie, and left. Suddenly, I was pulled down to the bottom of the void. I tried to fight it, but it was too late. I entered the portal at the bottom, and emerged into a whole new world...
