Ron Stoppable was living his greatest Dream…
He was sleeping Blissfully in bed while curled up with Kim and Sheila…
"!"
Ron was also HAVING a dream in which he was being shown The Prophecy.
'Ron!' a voice said.
'!' 'Huh?' Ron.
'Ron Stoppable… you MUST PAY ATTENTION! … My Time Is Short!'
Ron woke inside the dream… and saw a man… with white hair… a masked warrior… dressed in a three toned uniform. The mask, shoulders, gloves, shorts, and boots were Midnight Blue… the trunk and legs were Scarlet… a Gold star was in the center of his chest… a metal band glowed on each wrist…
'Dude! You're Mar-Vell! Uh… I mean…'
'Relax Ron… who I am is not important now… we WILL have some time later… You must come with me and read the FULL Prophecy…'
'Full Prophecy? What FULL PROPHECY?'
'The one that was left behind by The People… Come!'
Mar-Vell took Ron's hand and suddenly they were inside… a… structure?
'This is the home of Uatu The Watcher… we have his permission to be here and to look at his Reliquary.'
'Uh what's a rel…'
'It's an Artifact Museum…' Mar-Vell said.
'Oh!'
They floated over to a pedestal with a Black stone Trapezohedron that had glowing veins running through its matrix. The Stone had a scaled, dragon headed, four hoofed animal carved into one facet… and a scripture carved into an adjoining facet. 'The animal is called a kylin…' Mar-Vell touched several studs on the pedestal and a hologram of script appeared.
The Prophecy:
Hakka Translation
'When the world is in its direst hour the most humble of us shall become the greatest of us by helping his friend and will receive the greatest treasure: True Love'
Another Translation from the Chintamani Stone, a relic of The People (An ancient Starfaring Race) in Uatu The Watcher's reliquary:
'After the War of the Gods… Transcendent Evil shall rise from the ashes of defeat… it shall attempt to eat the heart of the Multiverse… The Champion of ALL Life will Rise again… as the most humble of us… He Will be guided by the Soul of the Last Champion and by his Friends… when it is TIME the choice will HAVE to be made… IF the Champion succeeds… he will receive a GREAT GIFT…
The Evil shall rise again on his Homeworld… A Blue Demon will attempt to destroy men where they TRULY live… He will be aided by those that are servants of the Twisted One… to no avail… When the Root of Life trembles at the Twisted One's Touch… The Champion shall step forth and do battle to save his friends… If he SUCCEEDS he shall receive the great treasure he has fought for since The War Of The Gods… True Love.
If he fails… all shall die.'
'…'
'…'
'Uh… Are you sure you've got the RIGHT dude?' Ron.
'Yes.' Mar-Vell GLARE.
'ok… just askin' is all… uh what's it like?'
'What?'
'What's being dead like? Does it hurt?'
'! … Yes… and No… I miss being able to hold my wife and son… Yet I may see what they see and feel what they feel when I look through the EYE…'
'Sorry… if I could, I'd do what it takes to get you back to them.'
'Just like you did for your Aunt Bobbi… Thanks.'
'No prob dude… we're in this mess together.'
'Time to go back… don't worry… the knowledge's burned into your soul. And you'll NEVER have to face this… Alone… I'll do what I can.'
'…'
"!"
'Cool… I'm ready.'
The two warriors looked at each other and each gave the other proper measure.
'Ron… if you EVER meet him… tell Rick Jones… thanks.'
'I will.' I'll make sure to talk to your wife and son, too!
Ron returned to his body and went back to sleep… with a HOPEFUL smile on his face.
