Apocalypse Game

Part Two: War Time

A/U: This is truly where the story takes off from, nothing is held back now, not even my characters anger which is and will always be his downfall.

Chapter Nine

The last words that I had uttered had been help before I had passed out due to something unknown, and that should of closed the Bridge, but it didn't, now as we pick up again, truth is exposed.

"JOHN!!!" Screamed Lady Q, "Speak, to me, say your all right."

"Let a doctor through!" commanded Strange, "Let's see what happened here."

The small crowd parted and let him through, he knelt down and examined me using psi and regular powers, he looked disturbed at first then frightened.

"I have read his mind," Strange said, "He had a psi-link with Calvin and what you just saw was Goldwood would getting hit with what Calvin was hit with as he was killed by Demoness Mara!"

"No..." uttered Lady Q as she fainted.

"This is grim, this is grim indeed," said Q, "I have fought against her from time to time and the only reason I'm still alive is because of the Three."

"IS THERE NOTHING WE CAN DO?" aksed Galactus "IS JOHN GOING TO DIE AS WELL?"

"No... I don't...huh?" Q said looking at my body which was getting up.

"Calvin died," I rasped out, "I will will go and kill the one who did that!"

"John, be sensible," said Q, "You cannot expect to win against his killer, she is stronger than you, stay here and recuperate and let Strange go and deal with her."

"NOOO!!!" I screamed, "It's my fault he died, he was brash and brave, two things which make a great hero, but don't make for good lessons, she will die as a sacrifce and a lesson to the darkness!!"

"But..." Q sputtered, but with the look that he saw from me he knew that he couldn't stop me.

With that I turned and blinked out into that world.

"You did the right thing Q," said Strange, "John's power has grown because of that blast, his aura has changed, it's mysterious though, his aura is remarkably close to that of Thor, but Thor's dead."

"No," said Lady Q regaining conscience, "Thor died, but his soul split and part of it resides in John and part of it resides in the child called Moke of the Starship Excalibur."

"What?" said Q, "Your saying that we could draw Calhoun and co here?"

"Idealized is that," said Yoda, "Other's as well there be that help might come from, a select crew from the returned Voyager is now part of Special Ops, help they might if we can convince them."

"Let us work on the matter at hand first," said Q, "Goldwood went in to another world burning hot and angry, Strange would of been better, Goldwood might kill her, we can't allow that."

"Hope there is," muttered Yoda, "In the young and old alike, he will not kill her."
