The Corrector
Disclaimer: I do not own anything with the exception of the Corrector and the Interferer.
Author's note: You may want me to explain where these guys are.
Correcter: I'm fairly certain they do. And why is it that you decided to set the first chapter through the antagonist's point of view?
KL: Because Joseph, I want them to understand the Character first. Otherwise, the'll just think he's another jack**s trying to serve his own selfish desires.
Correcter: Good point.
KN:Getting back on track, I set this in a super-dimension where everyone can see all the other dimensions. This dimension knows exactly what happens in all the other ones, and can also see ours. Although they are quite advanced, they are sympathetic by nature, and logic for them isn't as common as morality is for us...
As Joseph A. Rhode dragged the renegade John Langston through the dimensional hallway, he remembered how they had gotten into the mess they were currently in...
"Johnny, this isn't a good idea."said Dr. Rhode. "Joseph you worry too much. This plan is safe. I go in, fix the errors in reality, and every thing's a-OK."replied the often mistaken Scientist. "But, according to my theory, if you do that, the entire universe will be destroyed by a paradox. There is a 20-80 chance of you either changing the universe for the worse, or blowing it up. I don't think changing a few things is even right. For one thing, things are the way they are, they can't be changed. You can't change the Past, you can't change the Present, but you can control your Future."soliloquised Rhode. "Blah blah blah. Turn it on will you?"demanded the impatient Langston. "Fine, but if anything happens, I'll use the weapon."decided Rhode, pulling out a Walther P-38 outfitted with all kinds of weapons.. "Good idea."agreed Dr. Langston. As Dr. Rhode activated the vortex, the machine clicked and whirred as a blue energy began to envelope the scientists. "I knew this was going to happen. An overload, I should turn it off."said Rhode."No! We can lock it down and send me through!"defiantly replied Langston. Before Joseph could produce a counterpoint, the machine fired a bolt at the weapon. The energy shocked and transformed it, allowing it to take on numerous forms. Langston grabbed the weapon, and as he did, it's energies fused to his own. As the energy filled his body, his eyes turned a sharp blue, and his hair became snow white. "John!"shouted Joseph as another bolt enveloped him. Soon enough, several of the necessary control fluids began to leak out of the machine, and were struck with the lightning bolts. The fluids moved almost with a life of their own and flew into Rhode's mouth. He forcibly ingested them, and as he did, his body shook as muscles formed where none had been before. Soon enough, the lean scientist became much more muscular, and was sucked into the vortex...
Three hours later...
Joseph groaned, he felt like he had been struck by lightning. Oh right, he thought,I was.He looked around and found himself in an endless hallway, with a long series of doors. A few feet away, he saw Langston, changed by the accident, and grasping the Weapon. "John! Are you alright?!"he asked his unconscious friend. "Yes, I'm fine. Where are we?"asked the now snow haired Langston. "We appear to be in some kind of dimensional nexus. Each of these doors is, I hypothesize, a dimensional gateway. The Weapon looks a bit different."."It is. It can become any weapon now. Don't ask how I know this. I just...feel as though the Weapon told me."replied Langston. "Fascinating. It would seem as though that explosion rendered you connected to the Weapon, and me infused with the Power fluid. I seems to have also given us the power to go between dimensions at will."replied Rhode. "Well, is seems we can finally fix those problems now."."Wait just a goddamn second! Didn't I tell you what would happen?"stated a a furious Rhode. "You never showed me any proof! Why should I believe you!"angrily replied Langston. "Because you should have faith in me."said the exasperated Rhode. "Faith? What use is faith, when proof is all you don't have? No, from today, I am no longer 'John Langston'. From now on, i am, the Interferer. He who rights all wrong. I can finally be a true hero! Goodbye old friend, I may miss you, probably not, though." said The Interferer as he ran into the Darkness. "No! Wait, John!"pleaded Rhode in vain. Oh shit, Thought Rhode,If he changes something and it goes uncorrected for more than fifteen minutes, something really bad's gonna happen!
As Rhode ran after the Interferer, he realized he should have an interesting name as well. How about the fixer? Nah, too retarded. Maybe the Hero? Not fitting enough. Wait, what about the correcter! It's perfect! As he tracked the Interferer, he noticed his lab clothes had shifted into that of a west coast Police Officer. He was intrigued, but had no time to stop and check out his new clothes. When he checked how fast he was running, he found it was super-sonic. Strength and speed. Perfect, like a Mako and a Great White mixed together. Continuing to run down the hallway, he realized he would have to fix all the corrupted universes, meaning that he would have to kill anyone the Interferer had met. Lets pray this works! He thought as he ran through the first door, marked: Revenge of the Sith...
In Revenge of the Sith...
"That man's threat was genuine."said Mace Windu."Follow his orders must we, for have no other choice, we have."said Master Yoda. "Not quite."said a different voice. A man wearing an unrecognizable uniform ran towards them. Pulling out their lightsabers, the tried to use the force on him, but somehow his body was nullifying it akin to an yrsalamiri. He grabbed master Windu's lightsaber, and before any of them could react, he decapitated the Jedi Master. The other Jedi, excluding Skywalker raced towards him, trying to defeat this unknown menace, but he repelled them with such speed they couldn't attack. As they were continuously striking, he deflected all their blows with unimaginable speed. First, he sliced his lightsaber through Master Ki-Adi-Mundi, proceding to mutilate and maim the remainder, until only Yoda and Kenobi were left. Skywalker had ran off to get help. "Why are you doing this!?"half asked, half demanded Kenobi."Because, I must correct all the Interferer wronged. If you stay changed, your universe will collapse, and cause collateral damage to all the others. If I kill you, you'll just come back, good as before."replied the Corrector. Kenobi and Yoda, sensing the truth in his words, deactivated their weapons, allowing the Corrector to run them through. Noticing Skywalker was gone, he ran down the hallway with tremendous speed. Reaching the end, he found Skywalker's fighter was gone. Taking a literal leap of faith, he found he could now fly as well. With breakneck speed, he flew towards Skywalker's fighter, which was only about a mile ahead of him. Going faster and faster, he landed on top of Anakin's fighter. Having no time to explain, the Corrector sliced his blade hrough the back of the Jedi Starfighter, destroying it's repulsorlifts and sending it plummeting. Good, thought the Corrector, As soon as he hits the lower layers, he'll have no more air, and this universe will be safe. Where to next? Predicting the Interferer's actions, he figured out where to go to next, Punisher: War Zone...
In Punisher:War Zone...
"He's gone."said Castle, looking into the door. "And so is Microchip."said a voice. Punisher turned around and saw a Cop break Microchip's neck. "MURDERER!!"shoted an enraged Castle, firing an AK-47 at him. As the Punisher and the Corrector soon found out, the Correcter was as indestrucable as diamond. Running towards Castle, he grabbed his gun and shot the Punisher in the head. "You thought that skull distraction was gonna work on me?'said the Corrector to the Punisher's corpse. Where to next. Let me think what's the most depressing non-drama out this year...
In The Dark Knight...
As Gordon looked out onto the street, he found no trace of the mysterious black garbed man. Rather, he found an arm around his neck, breaking it like a toothpick. Easy enough. Thought the Corrector. Running through the door into the MCU headquarter's, he saw that Batman had shown up and witnessed the Joker's demise. Racing around this room, he grabbed one of the Cop's guns and shot Dent and Dawes. Running and breaking the Spines of anyone he could find in the room, until only the eponymous Dark Knight was left. Batman, wearing a Kevlar suit, was of course immune to the bullets, and the Interferer found his strength level was equal to that of his own. In an intense struggle, the Corrector decided to explain to Batman. "Look, the Universe has been permanently changed by that man who killed the Joker. It I don't kill you-"before he could continue, he was punched in the jaw by Batman who, due to having witnessed this man kill about 20 cops, Harvey Dent, Commissioner Gordon, and especially Rachel Dawes, not being a Jedi and therefore being unable to understand this was the truth, ignored him "SHUT THE HELL UP!!! I WILL KILL YOU!!!"screamed the enraged vigilante. "Then you leave me with no choice. Grabbing the Dark Knight, the Corrector ran with such tremendous speed that the Dark Knight couldn't get off. Soon reaching the west coast, he continued to run accross the Pacific until he reached Hawaii and found Kilauea. Throwing the Dark Knight in, he thought he had succeded, until the Batman grabbed his leg an tried to pull him in as well. "I,"said the Corrctor kicking the Dark Knight in the face,"Have had!"he continued, kicking again."Enough of you!"he said, finally kincking the Batman into the fiery mountain.
Now outside the dimensions in the hallway, he kept running after the trail the Interferer had left. He kept running at speeds rivaling those of the Flash, until he saw the Interferer, nearing Star Trek: The Original Series. "Langston, you've caused enough damage!!!"shouted the Corrector. "Damage? Have you undone all my reparations?"."Reparations? What kind of goddamn fool are you. This is what needs to happen!"Shouted the Corrector. "I don't want to hear your lies!!" The Interferer finished his statement with a bullet fired at the Corrector's head. Easily dodging it, the corrector continued to run. The Interferer switched his weapoon to an energy sword from Halo, and lunged at the Corrector. His response was to grip the Interferer's neck, and said to the struggling Interferer:"It's time to take you home, John."said the Corrector as he carried him home...
KN: So, what'd you think?
The Corrector: I find it somewhat odd that this has less to do with the pop culture characters and more to do with your characters.
KN: Is that so? Well in that case, I should add some other characters in. My concept was how many people wanted a stroy to end differently? When I was much younger, I thougt so many stories should end differently. After all, who didn't think Beast Machines should have ended fdifferently?
The Corrector: Too true, too true.
KN:These two were mostly just prequels, so from now on I'm going to set them almost entirely in the character's universes.
