Chapter 30

Everyone has gathered in the Council Chamber to hear about the news from all the A.I. that have found out where the ships were originally from in the hopes of finding the Grand Paradise System. Everyone take their seats as the holograms of the A.I.s are waiting for everyone in attendance for this very important meeting.

Ruby whispers, "Did they finally find it?" to her sister.

"I hope so." Yang whispers back, "I have no interest in being out in space for the rest of my life."

Magnus sits behind them and whispers, "Can I join in or is this a private party?"

The two sisters just look at him before shaking their heads.

"Sorry." and he retract himself.

Everyone is sitting down quietly as they prepare for whatever news the computer lifeforms have discovered with tension in the air with many having high hopes. Church clears his virtual throat before speaking.

"Okay." he sounds serious, "With everyone here, we got some major news. Good news is that we have discovered the source of these ships and..." he pause for dramatic effect, "We have finally discovered the Grand Paradise System! We're gonna head to our new home!"

Everyone applause with some giving wild cheers as they finally found a new system to call home.

"But there's more." Church interrupted the cheers.

Ai then speaks, "Turns out that it is a long trip for you flesh types because it will take at least a month to get to. Mostly because two of the solar systems have turned into black holes so we have to go around to avoid any of its gravitational wells."

The map of the galaxy appears that shows the route.

Delta speaks, "The ship does have advance systems to pass by strong gravitational wells, but it is fast enough for us to reach there. If we leave now, we will be there by Earth's New Years Eve. Executing propulsion systems now."

Everyone can feel the ship moving as it head towards the route programmed by Delta as it heads towards the position needed before warping.

Aqua then speaks, "However, we have detected a few beacons along the route that may require-" She suddenly pause, "One of those beacons is heading straight towards us."

"What?!" Magnus is surprised by this news, "That shouldn't be possible! There shouldn't be any sentient life that-"

A meteor breached through the hull and into the Council Room as everyone take cover with the huge hole sucking out some air that nearly caused everyone to be pull out into space. Good news is that the shield turned on to stop the breach with some that are in the air falling back down as Protoss Probes immediately get to work to fix the hull breach.

Flame says, "That beacon is here now."

Everyone is shaken up a little as they get back up. Then they all turn their attention towards the meteor that crashed through that seem rectangular in shape with the front having a bit of a diagonal slant. However, there is something metal underneath that seem man made. The rocky debris around it started to crumble to reveal some sort of bizarre space shuttle. Some of it is charred, some of its wings have been destroyed along with the tail, but it is revealed to be a craft of a sort with yellow coloring that have been peeled or reduced to patches. Yet on that ship, there is a symbol of a black fist on it that Magnus recognizes all too well.

"Holy shit!" Magnus yells, "That's a Thunderhawk Gunship with the Imperial Fists symbol on it!"

Remuru isn't all that impressed and is upset, "Yeah?! Then who the hell was piloting it!?"

KonoSuba's Aqua is furious, "Whoever they are, they're gonna regret ever being alive!"

The door opens up as the pressure inside is released as it lowers to reveal a shadowy figure that is very tall close to Magnus' height. In the light, they see someone in green power armor with parts that look like it has scales, golden and black trimming, a skull of a reptile with wings on his chest, a dragon-like skull on his left that is holding a pelt of a reptile, and a small halo behind the man's obsidian colored and bald head with red eyes.

"Greetings, new friends!" he says with a cheerful and friendly attitude.

"VULKAN!?" Magnus says in surprise, "IS THAT YOU?!"

"Magnus! How are you my big, red brotha!?"

"You know this guy?" Weiss asks.

"That's Vulkan, my brother!"

Many are shock to hear that particular detail.

"Aww!" Ruby finds it adorable, "A family reunion!"

Vulkan extends his arms out as he approach Magnus, "Come here and give me a hug!"

"No no! I would rather not! You're hugs are known for- AAAAAAHHHHHH!" Vulkan squeezes the life out of Magnus. "MY FUCKING NON-EXISTENT SPINE! AAAAAAAAAHHHHHHH!"

"That's enough, Vulkan." Another figure appeared out of the ship that is wearing a very large suit of armor, Centurion, with the colors and heraldry of the Imperial Fists with the only expose part being his head that has white hair and large mustache. "You are hurting our brother."

"ROGAL DORN!?" Magnus is even more surprise despite the pain, "WHAT THE- HOW- WHY ARE YOU ALIVE?! YOU'RE SUPPOSED TO BE DEAD! WHERE THE FUCK HAVE YOU TWO BEEN HIDING!?"

Rogal explains, "I managed to escape with Vulkan when the organization responsible for this empty galaxy was too busy sending all of our sons to unfathomable wars. The two of us found this Thunderhawk and have been resting for an unknown number of years in the vast emptiness of the void. We did have some of our sons, but they suffered a horrible fate when we heard their last vox transmission."

"Well that MAY explain why I haven't been able to detect you two. I could barely detect anything in hibernation. Not to mention that- AAAAAAAAHHHH!" Magnus screams as he gets hugged by Vulkan again. "WOULD YOU PLEASE LET GO OF ME!?"

Vulkan lets go as Magnus catches his breath.

Ozpin intervenes, "How about you three catch up in another room while we discuss on finding our new home?"

"Fine." Magnus is annoyed, but agreed to as the three Primarch brothers left.

Vulkan chuckles, "We have much catching up to do."

Some people murmur about what just happen and would like to know more about the two newcomers.

Windy says, "Settle down everyone, please settle down! We have some important news about our new home and move as fast as we could."

Delta appears on the large map that is now spinning to show everyone.

"As our Ignis friend Aqua was saying, we have detected multiple beacons along the path. Considering we have detected beacons of the Genesis Ship, the pod the Ignis and the teenage newcomers came in, and the colony ship, we have also detected a few beacons after expanding the range, they may require assistance."

Theta then speaks, "We're gonna need every available person with skills, knowledge and more in order to create the home we need in order to survive in this strange galaxy we are currently in."

Eta speaks, "Not to mention that we still don't know much about this galaxy. But judging from what we manage to piece together, there are still a multitude of shipwrecks that may contain some data we might need to learn more about this galaxy they killed each other for."

Santa, the alien AI not the holiday figure, then speaks, "We managed to learn a bit from some of the other ships along with various technologies despite some of the corrupted data we have to fix. We could use them to upgrade the ship for better scanning, propulsion and more. However, we also need materials and solarite in order to create and use them. Which could take a little longer."

Everyone discuss this situation in whispers as they wonder if it is the right way or should they just gun it. True, there are people yet Magnus also stated that he couldn't detect any psyche that is hibernating unless he is in a close proximity to be able to detect, which he had to learn when investigating the Yu-Gi-Oh! pod. Yet he did say he didn't detect any in the first place which kinda contradict about his psychic powers. Some question whether or not his psychic powers are fully working at all. But that aside, they return their focus on the beacons and wonder if they have enough to store all the multitude of pods they have to unload in their new home. Some believe that they could be helpful in creating a new civilization or a bunch more along with any new technologies. Others believe that they should reach the Grand Paradise System first before recruiting any more people in building. Yet some are suggesting that they should remain behind to try to map out some of the systems where those beacons are.

Church then interrupts these discussions, "This is a very important decision. Before reaching the first beacon, we all should vote on what to do if we manage to find any more ships or people in hibernation. In the meantime, decide on what the fate of these sleeping people should be. Wait, recruit them, have someone stay behind and investigate the systems they are in, or leave them behind until later. You guys have seven hours to vote. Think carefully. That will be all."

The AIs and Ignis flicker out and into the database while Church return to his own body. Everyone leave as they try to figure out what to vote on.

"So, what are you gonna vote for, Ruby?" Yang asks as the team leaves.

Ruby has some thoughts about it. "Well, I say it is wrong to leave people behind if there is anyone out there. I don't like the idea of leaving someone behind yet we might try colonization in the future."

Tucker speaks, "Well I say we leave them behind till later. After what happened to me, I don't wanna take any chances. I do like having sex, but only if I'm in-charge. NOT the other way around." and then leaves.

Blake speaks, "We shouldn't leave anyone behind. Yet there are pros and cons to this. True we can spam in plenty of food and necessary resources needed in order to house, feed, and whatever necessities needed. However, the bigger the population, the more we might get overworked along with a possible uprising for those that want to seek power. On the other hand, we do need skilled scientists in order to decipher much of any form of ancient technology and how to obtain resources we cannot create. Such as solarite. This is a difficult choice."

"I have to agree." says Weiss, "We could get valuable scientists like Jimmy Neutron and Dexter that we discussed earlier, yet more people means more problems. And we already have enough people already."

"Guess we'll have to decide on what should do when we reach the first beacon." Yang says.


The Warp

In the Warp, everything is starting to shift. Change into what the people on the Spearhead of Hope should believe the Warp should be. All the daemons, souls, the entire realm being transformed into something completely different.

"Ow..." Tzeentch is in pain as he is transforming. "Guess this is the end then. The end of our current existence. I would like to say it was nice knowing everyone, but to be honest, for the first time among the countless eons, I really hate you assholes."

"I hate you too, asshole." Khorne says. "I always hated every last one of you."

Nurgle is displeased, "I don't like change."

Yet Slaanesh is excited, "I for one am more than excited about this new change. I can't wait to see what new form I shall take."

Everyone slowly start to transform with many being in pain yet Slaanesh enjoys it. Tzeentch slowly transforms into a humanoid raven creature with tinge-blue wings and elaborate feathered crest on his head that have a pattern similar to eyes that are light blue in color. He then started to wear a white robe that makes him look like a sage as a staff with two raven heads appear with a white crystal ball that had the blue flaming symbol of Tzeeentch. Khorne started to become more like a human with white pale skin, two jagged obsidian horns on his head, red flaming eyes, and wearing obsidian black armor with his symbol on the chest plate and a red cape with his symbol on it. Nurgle start to become thinner has he takes on an appearance of an old man wearing rags and torn robes with a necklace made of dried worms that form his symbol while wearing a skull mask and holding a scythe. He is now so thin that you can barely see his bones yet is also hunch back with a few mushrooms growing on it. Slaanesh is transformed into a purple skinned maiden with white hair and golden horns in her head while also having a thin tail with crab pincers on it. She is also wearing a woman's Greek toga that is golden in color with her symbol holding it all together.

"Whoa!" Tzeentch went, "Look at us!"

Khorne takes a gander at his new appearance with a mirror, "I like the armor. But why isn't it brass? And yet I feel less...angry. There's no hatred in me."

Slaanesh takes a look, "Look at the size of my boobs! And this toga is so comfy and sexy!"

"At least you're the same as ever. Wait, do you still want to cause agony?"

"Mmmmmmm... No. I just wanna have sex and have a good time while also making works of art and make lavish parties."

"Guess you're the same... I think."

"I'm alright with my old man appearance." says Nurgle as he look at his new form. "People do call me Grandpa Nurgle, so it does make sense."

Tzeentch points at the realm, "Look!"

The Warp is transforming into something completely different. The Eternal Swamps have been transformed into forests with only a small amount of swamps in it with endless green with only a small amount of decay. The Mansion of the Plaguelord is transformed into an Italian-style mansion that is overgrown with plants and a few destroyed windows. The Garden of Blight is now home to beautiful plants with giant mushrooms that make it look like an enchanted garden from a fairy tale. Septic Isle has been erased from existence as it is replaced with a mass graveyard with tombstones with his symbol on them.

Slaanesh's realm has become a huge continent that look like artistic inspiration with vast forests of flowery trees with the sweet scent of flora and honey in the air. There are even plants that sprout paintings of events of joy and happiness along with those of fulfillment and satisfaction. Crystal clear waters with fish that change colors and sparkle. There are many architectural structures that are modeled after Rome with the daemons transformed into sexy nymphs that like to dress up in the most wonderful fashion, eccentric, or just run around in the nude with lots of wine and sweets. Gold and jewels scatter about as everyone just toss them around like confetti while in happy mood with many souls appreciate the treasures as they also toss them up. Flowering meadows and rivers of wine can be found all over with many chariot races.

Khorne's realm became less of an infernal wasteland and more of a battlefield wasteland with weapons and armor scattered about along with tattered banners being blown in the wind. Massive fortresses of brass and obsidian with huge towers of flames up in the air. Massive mountains made of skulls are as high as they can be with blood seeping out from the eye sockets to produce rivers and lakes of boiling blood with bubbles producing embers that burn whatever gets close to it. Yet in these killing fields, knights in brass or obsidian fight each other with the sound of war cries and cheers of battle as they all clash in epic battles. Yet in the fortress, singing and drunkard thrashing can be heard with the feasting of various beasts and food in celebration of their hunts and battles. Yet whenever a warrior dies, they reappear in whatever fortress or war camp they represent. There are even green forests home to the most dangerous animals and carnivores that prowl for anyone that trespass.

Tzeentch's realm is still the same yet have humongous bookshelves filled with various books on spells, magical recipes, alchemical recipes, magical beasts, and all sorts of knowledge along with volumes about people and their fate. However, the Blasted Wastelands are not wastelands anymore. Instead, they are replaces with a chaotic mess of different environments such as deserts, forests, volcanoes, oceans, meadows, and all sorts of places with magical particles can be seen as far as the eye can see. Not to mention that people can gain all sorts of magic in these places that are home to various spellcasters can gain power. Not to mention that any spell, pending of the type of spell, have its effects and firepower multiplied in these environments.

"So this is our new place, huh?" Khorne says.

"Not bad." Slaanesh says, "But what happened to all of our negative parts?"

Not too far away, Malal or Malice or whatever the destructive creeps name is supposed to be, started to grow in size as every bad part of the Chaos Gods being transferred into his being as his own realm start to take shape. If you thought the original version of the Realm of Chaos was a shit hole, the one that Malice claim to be his domain is even worse as every terrible aspect is multiplied tenfold as anarchy and destruction reign. And so, the four Chaos Gods became five with the main four being seen as the good deities while Malice is seen as the force of evil. A devil, or some incarnation of Lucifer, Satan, or whatever the head of hell's name is suppose to be due to being confusing on what the asshole's name is. Now, it is a new era for Chaos.
