"Daddy! Daddy!" yelled a little boy, running towards a man "I love you daddy!". "S...Son! You still love me, even after what I did to your mom & sister?" the father asked his son, hugging him. "Of course daddy, I'll always love you." replied the son, hugging his dad. "Thank You son, but I do have one question for you." said the dad. "What is it dad?" the son asked, looking up at his dad. "Do you still love me now?" the dad asked, as he began to dig claws into his son's back. "D...Daddy...Y...Yes...I still do" the boy said, as he died. "Good! Hahahaha!" the dad laughed, as he then eating his son's dead corpse "Mmmm, Delicious".

"Hey Moonstone" siad She-Hulk, walking over to Moonstone. "Huh? Oh, Hi She-Hulk, have a good night sleep?" Moonstone asked. "Yep, although the ground wasn't to comfortable. What about you?" replied She-Hulk. "Not really, I had a horrible dream last night" answered Moonstone. "Oh! What about?" asked She-Hulk. "Hiho fellow teammates" said Beta Ray Bill, walking up to Silver Surfer & Ultron "Where's Abomination?". "He said he was goin' for a walk" answered Ultron. "Okay, cause need to talk to him" said Beta Ray Bill. "About What?" asked Silver Surfer. "It's nothin'" replied Beta Ray Bill. "'Kay" stated Silver Surfer. "Wow! That's a horrible dream!" yelled She-Hulk. "Yeah, I jus hope he doesn't find me here in space." replied Moonstone. "Me either. Say, where is Abomination?" asked She-Hulk, looking around. "He said he was going for a walk" replied Moonstone. "I'm going to find him" said She-Hulk. "Why?" asked Moonstone. "Because" replied She-Hulk, running off to find Abomination.

(Why...Why am I here? Why is any of us here? & why did I have that dream?! Of all dreams?!) thought Abomination, as he walked past some boulders (What is the meaning of all this...) he said as he got cut off by a voice. "I found you" said She-Hulk, walking up to Abomination. "You found me? Why were you looking for me?" asked Abomination, confused. "Well, I wanted to see what you were up to" replied She-Hulk, walking up to Abomination. "Well I'm up to nothing, I'm just pondering why we're all here, & why I don't act like the thing that I was on earth." replied Abomination. "That is weird. Not even Ultron is acting the same. I don't know what's going on, all I know is that the answer to all this, lies within' Eternity, whatever that means" said She-Hulk. "Hmm..." went Abomination, as he thought intently. "What's wrong?" asked She-Hulk, seeing Abominations stern face. "Nothing" replied Abomination, still keeping to himself. "You can tell me" sated She-Hulk. "How's Beta Ray Bill taking his species destruction?" asked Abomination. (Something's definitely bothering him, he changed the subject really quick) thought She-Hulk "He said that until he sees it with his own eyes, he's not gonna believe they're dead". "That seems like the best thing to do" said Abomination "You know, your not acting the same either, you know that?". "How so?" asked She-Hulk. "Because, back on earth, you would never had hung out with the likes of me, let alone team-up with me, the same with Moonstone, & Ultron" answered Abomination. "I actually didn't notice that, huh, oh well" stated She-Hulk. "Hey, what was that "Nothing" you were talking about earlier?" asked She-Hulk, looking at Abomination again. "I don't want to talk about it" answered Abomination. "Later?" asked She-Hulk. "Later" answered Abomination. "I look forward to hearing it" replied She-Hulk. "It's getting late...I guess, we should head back" said Abomination, looking at the sky. "Your right, let's go" answered She-Hulk.

"Look who's back" said Silver Surfer, seeing She-Hulk & Abomination return. "Hiho" said Abomination, as he & She-Hulk returned "Hey Beta Ray Bill, I see you changed outfits". "Yep, I like my regular clothes better" answered Beta Ray Bill. "Your awfully cheery Abomination, what happened between you two?" asked Moonstone. "Nothing, all we did was talk" answered Abomination. "About what?" asked Ultron. "About why we're here. & stuff like that" answered Abomination. "& What did you conclude?" asked Silver Surfer. "Nothing" answered She-Hulk. "Did you talk about anything else?" asked Moonstone, as if she was interrogating them. "No" replied She-Hulk. "Sure" stated Moonstone. "Look Moonstone! Nothing happened! All we did was talk about why we're here, that's it! Nothing else!" yelled She-Hulk. "It's okay She-Hulk, I was just giving you a hard time, settle down, sheesh" responded Moonstone, stepping back. "Sorry" replied She-Hulk. "I'm tired" stated Abomination, as he went to a spot, & laid down "See ya guys tomorrow...I guess".

"Mommy! Mommy! Help me, Daddy turned into a monster!" yelled a Little Girl, as she ran towards a woman standing in front of a sink. "Monster? What do you mean sweetie, he's probably just playing a game with you" replied the Mother, as the little girl held on to her leg in fear. "No Mommy! I mean he's turned into a monster!" yelled the littler girl, pointing to a monster in the hallway in front of the kitchen. The mother's eyes turned to horror as she saw the frightful sight of the monster. "Wha...What are you?! & What have you done with my husband?!" yelled the Mother, holding her daughter tightly. "Your husband? Hahaha! Little lady, I am your husband!" laughed the Monster, as he ripped the Wooden Kitchen doorway off the wall. "Cecelia! Run!" yelled the Mother, as she slightly pushed the little girl in the opposite direction. "But, Mommy!" yelled Cecelia in return. "Run!!" the Mother yelled once more. Cecelia started to run to the other door to the Living Room, as she opened the door, she turned around & saw her Mother's corpse being eaten. Cecelia's whole body trembled in horror at the gruesome & awful sight. "RAARRGGHH!!" yelled the Monster, as it jumped towards Cecelia. "AHHHH!!!" yelled Cecelia, as the Monster lunged for her. The Monster landed on Cecelia, crushing her, & instantly killing her. The Monster then began to feast on Cecelia's dead corpse, & with an evil smiled it said "Delicious".

Next Day, "Good Morning. if it is Morning, everyone" said She-Hulk, as she woke-up. "Good Morning She-Hulk" greeted Moonstone. "Huh? Where's Abomination?" asked She-Hulk, seeing everyone at camp except Abomination. "I'm guessin' he's on another walk, he wasn't here when we woke-up." replied Silver Surfer. "Huh, I'll go find him" said She-Hulk, as she got up & ran to where her & Abomination talked the previous day. "Abomination! Abomina..." yelled She-Hulk, getting cut off by seeing something big & green in the corner of her eye. She-Hulk turned & saw Abomination sitting on a boulder staring at his claws, like he was in fear. "Abomination?" She-Hulk whispered to herself. (I never want to go back to earth again. There, I'm a cold-blooded monster. Here in space I can be me) thought Abomination (But...Why? Why are these dreams coming to me? I thought I buried those parts of my monstrous past for good?). "Abomination, you okay?" asked She-Hulk. walking up to Abomination. "Huh? Oh, Hey She-Hulk" Abomination said, a little startled to see her. "Are you okay?" She-Hulk asked again. "I...No I'm not" answered Abomination, looking away. "Can you tell me about it?" She-Hulk asked, concerned. "No" answered Abomination. "Why?" She-Hulk asked. "Be..Because, Just...Because" replied Abomination. "That's not a reason" stated Abomination. "Fine! It's because I don't want you to hate me!" yelled Abomination. "You don't want me to hate you?" asked She-Hulk in astonishment. "Yes, I don't want the person I love, to hate me" confessed Abomination. She-Hulk fell to her knees in shock. "You...You love me?" muttered She-Hulk. "Yes" answered Abomination. She-Hulk got up from the ground & smiled "I could never hate the one I love". Abomination was shocked. "You love me?" Abomination asked. "Of course" said She-Hulk, as she smiled. "Abomination smiled "Then...I'll tell you".

"I've been having dreams of my past, a part of my past to be exact, a past that I never want to remember" explained Abomination. "Why?" asked She-Hulk. "I'm getting there" exclaimed Abomination. "Oh, Sorry" replied She-Hulk. "It's Okay, Now as was saying..." Abomination began to say, as he paused. "What's wrong?" asked She-Hulk. "N...Nothing, It's fine. Now as I was saying...again, It's the part of my past that I want to forget. I thought I had buried these memories for good, but I was wrong." explained Abomination. "Uh huh?" went She-Hulk, in suspense. "Oh! Sorry, In my first dream, a little boy was running toward me yelling "Daddy! Daddy!" & he hugged me. I said "Do you love me, even after what I do your mom & sister?", the little boy replied "Yes" then..." a tear ran down Abomination's cheek "...then I pushed my claws into the kid's back, then in a monstrous tone I asked "Do you still love me now?" the kid died, &..." another tear ran down his cheek "...& I ate his dead corpse!" Abomination yelled in self-disgust & sorrow. She-Hulk's face turned to horror "Th...That's horrible!". "I know, & what's worse is that kid was my son" stated Abomination. She-Hulk's face turned white "Wh...what happened to your Wife & Daughter?". "That's what I'm about to tell you. It started with a girl, my daughter, running to her mom, my wife, yelling "Help me! Daddy's turned into a monster!", all of a sudden a monster, me, stood in the doorway, I attacked my wife & my daughter. Then...Then I ate them." explained Abomination. "Th...That's Aweful!" yelled She-Hulk "Did you do this upon your own free will, or was it the "monster" that did it?". "What do you mean?" asked Abomination. "Was your mind intact when all this happened, was it you that did this, or was it the mind of monster in which you were trapped that did this?" replied She-Hulk, tears coming down her cheek's. "I honestly don't know" answered Abomination. "Well until we know..." began She-Hulk, wiping away some tears "...I do know one thing we can do.". "What is that?" asked Abomination.

3 hours later, "She-Hulk, can you keep everything I told you & these things, secret from the others? Including Moonstone?" asked Abomination, setting down a tombstone, that was engraved: NADIA DORNOVA BLONSKY, BELOVED WIFE & MOTHER 1972-2006. "Yeah, I can keep it a secret, even from Moonstone." replied She-Hulk. Abomination & She-Hulk stood there, looking at three tombstones. The first one said: CECELIA BLONSKY 2001-2006. The Last one said: DOLTON BLONSKY 1999-2006. "She-Hulk" said Abomination, still looking at the tombstones. "Yes?" asked She-Hulk, also still looking at the tombstones. "Thank You" replied Abomination. She-Hulk looked at Abomination & blushed, then she turned back to the tombstones & said "Your Welcome". 10 minutes had past. "Well, we better be gettin' back" stated Abomination. "Yeah, your right, let's get back" agreed She-Hulk. She-Hulk & Abomination turned to walk back to the camp, holding hands. All of a sudden, a giant machine appeared in the sky. Silver Surfer saw it before anyone else & whispered to himself "Galactus".
