Battle of the three galaxies Apocalypse
Chapter 8: What is the Opposite of ascended being ?
As the camera show us the control room , where Loki sit and Weir just stand and thinking.
Weir: what help can you offer us at this point
Loki: not what you expect , but I can offer some light on the truth you might need.
Weir: what exactly happen to Thor?
Loki: Thor? How you know Thor?
Weir: let us say we are old friends. From a past time.
Loki : Thor died a long time ago. In a fierce battle
Weir: well I am sorry for that , really I am .
Loki : we are too.
Weir: so what truth you are talking about.
Loki: you cant engage the hyper drive , not to go where you want to go , it is impossible
Weir: how you know that ?
Loki : we tried it before , even with our technology , something or some other race , have more advance techs that we don't know about that prevent us from even going near that place.
Weir: where you suggest we go.
Loki : we first need to fix your hyper drive it happened to us before , we were stuck unless we fix it.
Weir: let us say we let you fix it , where we would go?
Loki: you don't get told what the truth is , you must be shown, and that is our intention to show you the truth . nothing more.
as the camera show us weir looking at Atlantis , she realize she don't have much choice in this and nod him to approve , as we see the Asgards working on a computer to fix the hyper drive , we see weir standing anxious next to Atlantis .
Weir: you are aware what they are fixing?
Atlantis : they are changing some sub routine to the hyper drive complex, it seem our old conception of time and space is not accurate in this timeline , frankly I have no idea why they are doing what they does , but we need to wait and see
Weir : I believe we shall , I am just wondering what is that truth they are talking about .
Atlantis : I really hope it reveal something good .
Weir: why I have doubt in this
They both look at each other and say nothing. As the city suddenly go to hyperspace . and disappear , in another place in the galaxy , the same planet we saw the skeleton on , the earth is in ashes. Trembling , nothing is holding , the priest we saw earlier is walking the earth checking everything . he encounter the good man we saw earlier , just standing on the cliff of a trembling and vast hole .
Priest : cheer my son , no room in this life for evil , you know that
Man: but he was my friend . how could this happen
Priest : darkness corrupt even the very good souls , try to keep yours intact my son
Man : what will happen to us now?
Priest : now you rebuild , morn your dead, and move on. And try to keep sin out of your lives, or this will happen again.
As they are talking far from them, the earth is moving , something coming out , the skeleton is out .. he have black aura around him , he stand , look up scream, and take a shape of a human with red eyes…. And then he disappear like transporting somewhere. In the background we hear , thx for the job my friend.
Back in space , Atlantis drop from hyperspace. Behind some sort of a moon.
Weir: why we are here?
Loki: I suggest you take a look on that planet , send a ship and look for yourself.
As we see a jumper leaving Atlantis, it approach a planet nearby ,
Weir: on screen …
The screen show weir face .. Atlantis face in horror. Everyone just stand still and look horrified…. The screen turn to show us the view , the entire planet , consumed by skeletons.
Weir: what are those?
Loki: Descended beings , they were once humans.
Weir: you want to tell me they are humans? Those?
Loki : I am afraid so.., but now we must leave , they can detect us …
Weir : get us out of here
As the city go to hyper space again … weir talking to loki
Weir: what happen? , how this happen?
Loki : we are not really sure , but at some point , we were just exploring a solar system , we detected a planet , the same planet you saw now . full of humans…we did not interfere , but they were seem to live you call it life of not so much harmony we left the system , we came back few days later , passing through , we did not detect the same life signs, we looked they were all like this. And then we started detecting planets like this all over the galaxy ,
Weir: I saw skeletons buried in that planet we were on , they were dead not living like those.
Loki : we don't know any weapon that can kill those creatures, we tried. Some we seen survive the vacuum of space even
Atlantis : in our reality , we had Ascended beings, now we have descended ones
Loki: ascended ? what you mean by that
Weir: angel like creature , once human , evolve into some kind of energy like race… called Ascended being.
Loki: as I understand , you are from a different reality? That is quite interesting …
Weir: yes our reality was altered by the reality stone
Loki eyes just got stuck like he was freeze.
Loki : did you say the reality stone?
Weir: you know of the stones?
Loki : forbidden to talk about .. dangerous …
Weir: why ?
Loki: they cause much destructions , and even the most incredible techs can not foreseen there effects .
Atlantis : I have something to say
Everyone look at her and listen
Atlantis : I believe what ever we try to do , we are stuck in this … new … reality , if what they are saying is true , and they are Descended beings, mean we should explore the possibility of …
Weir: the opposite might be true too
Atlantis : the ancients, they could be here
Atlantis : I believe the city exist in a time bubble ,but the reality stone , I don't know
Loki: ancients?
Weir: our pple
Atlantis : I think we should try to reach the ancient city in this time line.
As the scene fade, the city go to hyper space. , back on that planet , the newly taken form human , begin to walk , he shape shift to his old look again , and walk to his friend
Bad guy : told you I will be ok
Good guy: Man you are alive ? how ?
He run to his friend, and hug him as we can see his friend eyes glow in red , and the scene fade to the next chapter
