As the Deity gathered their strength, Primacon told them what happened with
Unicron and Primus.
"The disruption you all felt was Unicron. He went into Reality, but not alone. Primus went with him."
"But why did Unicron want to go into Reality?" asked Buddha.
"He wanted somewhere to gather his strength without being stopped. He shall eventually return to this place and try to destroy me." replied Primacon.
"Can Primus stop him?" asked Zeus.
"He must do..." answered Primacon.
Oblivion, destruction, cessation of experiment... Whatever you called it, it didn't describe the sensation Primus felt... As he awoke, he realized that Reality hadn't destroyed him. Suprising, seeing as the cocoon wasn't too strong. And Unicron was... What happened to Unicron?
"Unicron? Did you survive too?" asked Primus, not really expecting an answer. The aftermath of Reality was causing disruptions with Primus' telepathy. He couldn't sense Unicron at all.
Unicron had been thrown far from Primus and, being an eternal optimist, believed him destroyed. He had come across a System of planets, which was forming around a Solar body. As his energy was greatly depleted, Unicron went to the System and absorbed energy that the Solar body was producing.
"This is not nearly enough..." thought Unicron. "I know... I shall tear the energy from the core itself!" Unicron grabbed the great Solar inferno and tore it apart, swallowing each energy rich piece. His energy replenished, he rested.
"Noo!" screamed Jilant as he felt the bright, blazing sun he had created, torn apart by a force he didn't feel existed. Jilant had taken charge, and so placed his being in, the inner planet and Star of the system he and 3 others were making. The others didn't feel it as strongly as Jilant, but without the gravity of the Star, their planets flew off in other directions.
"Jilant, are you alright?" asked Primacon, coming up to the shocked Deity.
"Primacon, something happened to the System!" called Luyio, one of the others in charge of the System.
"Something with the experiment? Will this happen again?" asked the concerned Creator.
"Its nothing we did... But it could happen again..." replied Jilant, trying to cover his pain.
"Unicron..."
The Star was replenishing him, slowly, but at least it was. No point letting excess energy go to waste. Primus tested how far out his telepathy could reach, now that Reality was becoming less chaotic. He felt a familiar presence... Could Unicron be still alive? The presence vanished. If Unicron was still around, he could have felt the telepathic tug and moved to not be sensed. Primus needed to find a way to replenish his energy faster... A theorised two Star System would give twice the excess energy. It was a long shot though... Primus drifted off through Space to find one.
Unicron moved as soon as he felt Primus searching. He had to be caught unawares, now he actually was still alive. Primus had to be as depleted as Unicron. And he wouldn't go as far as to tear a Star apart. Primus knew it would damage the Deity in charge of it. Yes, Primus would die here. In Reality.
Hlok had seen Jilant's agony, and was talking to Primacon about it.
"Primus could still exist out there!" she argued.
"If he did, he would have stopped Unicron from damaging Jilant's mind." replied the Creator, "Its likely that he can't continue the experiment. Already, we've seen the planet he was in charge of will go crashing into the fourth planet of the Sol system."
"Everyone has been warned and are going to join the others on the third planet." said Hlok.
"Well, thats one problem solved..."
"Primacon!" called a Deity "We can sense Primus!"
Who would have guessed that they could manage to make a twin-Star system? One wasn't big enough to have reached Yellow status, so had become a wasteful (in an energy sense) Red. It gave off more excess energy then its neighbouring Yellow. So that was good. Primus felt a twinge from his telepathy, but it vanished quickly.
"If only there was a way to speed this up..." muttered Primus.
"Too late for that now!" yelled Unicron as he struck Primus in the back of the head. Primus flew through the Star and almost hit a planet orbiting on the other side. "Now to get you away from this Star's healthy energy."
"I am not depleted enough to lose."
"But I'm not depleted." smiled Unicron as he flew at Primus.
"'Flew through the Star backwards'? What do you mean 'backwards'?" asked Primacon.
"Well, we sensed him go through the Star... Well, backwards. He was facing the way he came from." answered Nemtep.
"How can you be sure it was backwards?" asked Hlok.
"Well, this is a twin Star System, so we've been monitoring it very closely." answered Nemtep. "The configuration is very rare, after all. So we were very supposed at Primus energy passing through."
"Well it can't be a good sign that he was flying backwards..."
Primus kept trying to defend himself, but it was no good. He wasn't used to fighting in a physical body. Unicron punched him in the head, which flipped him head over heels.
"Face it, Primus." taunted Unicron "You are much weaker then I."
"Or maybe I'm just toying with you..." said Primus. Unicron punched him in the ribs then the face before kicking him. Primus was becoming seriously disorientated. But apart from destruction, there was nothing...
"I was working away right under your noses and none of you, not even Primacon, questioned me." Unicron said as he took hold of a moon. "You should all thank me for destroying you. It will remove your chances of someone, with less honourable goals, rising in my place." Unicron hit Primus around the face with the moon, sending him backwards, into the orbital path of a planet.
"Honourable?" scoffed Primus "If thats what you think, then I'm glad your not creating a planet!" Primus moved out of the way of the planet.
"Its a pity you won't stay alive long enough to see the good I will do for Beyond..." said Unicron. "No servitude... Think about it! We don't need to serve, just exist and find our own scientific projects or do anything we choose!" Unicron hurled the moon at Primus. Primus caught the moon and sent it back to its planet. "As far as I can tell, you are the only one who doesn't choose to help Primacon. He has even told me; "Freedom is the right of all sentient creatures". You are inferior. Thats what drives you. You think everything you do messes up, so you want to mess it up before it gets chance." This angered Unicron a lot. "Inferior? Inferior to who, exactly? Not you, thats for certain. Now I think its time for you to die. I will be sporting, so you have a chance to run and possibly 'defeat' me. If you can, I will go back to serving Primacon."
"And if I can't?"
"You cause the eradication of existence. Run."
"The disruption you all felt was Unicron. He went into Reality, but not alone. Primus went with him."
"But why did Unicron want to go into Reality?" asked Buddha.
