The next day, it was almost noon, the sun was rising higher and higher and the world was rolling again, but today a lot was to be decided because here, leading four friends, a golden-haired man in a black and yellow uniform, finally running through the broken ground, saw a place about which a legend wrote , and led the map, a place surrounded by great six a oaks, and it was a place where miracles happened.
A mysterious place surrounded by six oak trees with a strange stone plinth made of colored granite in the form of a cube in the middle, all this was supposed to concentrate an extraordinary power that the world has never seen before, a place of chance to banish the terrible virus once and for all, today this place has been discovered come the place itself seemed normal and everyday, but the mystery of this place made anyone who did not know the truth and appear in this quiet place on the edge of broken earth and great mountains seem to be a perfectly normal place devoid of all power, but the leader Martin could not see this place, ordinary or accidental, there was too much evidence, stone tablets, a map, it all served some higher reason, for him it couldn't be accidental.
- we found it, we made it, quickly. Said Martin as his brown eyes shone with a gleam of great hope, Martin without looking back ran to the place of his greatest hope where a great chance to banish the virus was waiting for him.
- man, how stubborn he is, but I'm not surprised, he's in love, that's why he will do anything to help save Jessica. Said an orange striped cat covered with a cloak and a black hat, feeling the black and white cat's grip tightening on his left paw.
- I'm not surprised at him, you and I would do anything for each other, what you wanted to do for me last day. Said Kitty looking into the green eyes of Puss in Boots.
- you're right, he'll do anything to help, and you know, I feel a bit sorry for him because I doubt Jessica's parents would ever agree to their happiness together. Said Puss looking with regret at the running man to the place of his hope.
- Yes, he also has the same opinion. Said Kitty Softpaws, but her blue eyes and expression on the black and white face showed only great determination and something else that she hid behind a sincere smile.
- Kitty, what are you planning, I already know you quite well, those eyes of yours, tell me what you want to do, go ahead, I'll help you with that. said Puss who also wanted to help lovers.
- I have a lot of ideas how to help our friends but first let's deal with the current burning problem, Jessica's life is the most important today, come on. Said Kitty, leading Puss and his green cape behind him.
- they take this matter very seriously, as I envy them all. The archaeologist in the black and yellow uniform said to himself.
Kevin Jons looked at everything in front of him and shook his head a bit envious of what he had not found yet, Kevin has always been looking, digging, discovering and constantly racing with new legends until today he looked back and saw what else escaped him, and from on the other hand, as his brown eyes saw the great discovery, another thought passed through the archaeologist's mind like a thunderbolt.
- after all, it's obvious, I already love, love my job, it's my life, my passion, everything I need to live and that's enough. added Kevin, and a brown and white dog walking beside him, Perrito barked a few times, attracting the attention of the brave archaeologist.
- there will always be time for that, Mr. Kevin, today is the time to finally reach for the great discovery. Perrito said and Kevin jumped because he understood something again.
- sure, this is the day, come on, let's see if this place really works miracles. Kevin said, picking up a small dog from the ground and running with him under the arm to the great circle of six oaks where rested a cubic pedestal, a place of extraordinary power.
Martin was the first to stand in front of the strange cubic pedestal, it was Martin who placed his hands on the colored granite and pleaded with all his might to grant his wish for miracles to come true, but as it turned out, the reaction was imperceptible, neither the blowing wind nor the change in heaven, it looked as if nothing had happened, or the miracle was so silent as to be unnoticeable.
At the same time, a certain skeptical part of the archaeologist's mind suddenly activated, Kevin looked at his friend, two cats, and placed a small dog next to them, stopping himself in front of a granite pedestal where one could sit if one wanted to, Kevin also placed on the pedestal no knowing where to start, until he suddenly shouted one wish so that another miracle could be realized.
- I want to know the truth, I want to know everything to understand!. Kevin shouted at the top of his voice and his words as well as Martin's words, requests and wishes were only thrown to the wind because the place surprisingly never responded and instead the colorful granite it was suddenly broke into hundreds of pieces.
- no it is not possible. Kevin said.
- just not that!, how, how is it possible!. shouted Martin, their clenched fists catching fragments of spilled granite that are now only black dust.
- I don't believe it, it was all that, that's what the man in the suit called us for, what was it for, what was it all for!. He shouted Puss in Boots kneeling next to Martin.
- I don't believe it, it can't end like this!. Kitty Softpaws screamed, taking a handful of the spilled black sand.
- but what does that mean, is that it's over. Perrito asked.
- yes yes. An unfamiliar voice shouted.
When everyone looked back, two figures bound in golden whips suddenly fell from the sky, the first of them was an angry and sore silvery wolf in a black robe, cape and two sickles squeezing his red glowing eyes in a grimace, and the second was a brown-yellow lizard from komodo, wielding his black trident in both hands, his shocked blue eyes trembling slightly.
Seeing Death in such a dire state as the Flying Dutchman, Puss in Boots, drawing his sword, looked up at the sky and his coat stood up a bit, especially when he saw before him a great black hog in a white suit with gold, gold chains, diamond rings, and the hog's golden eyes looked at everyone, and his laugh, combined with a squeak, trembled every one of those gathered.
- finally the time has come, my great moment, that you mortal fools should know everything, because here I am, the creator of this system, and you Death and you Flying Dutchman will not change anything here because the whole world is my domain. Greed said landing gently on the hard ground and twirling his golden whips in his hands.
Hearing the big hog's words, Puss and Martin stepped forward looking only at the black hog in white and gold, his furious and wicked grin.
- so you're the one who made everyone what they are, you're the builder as a certain Man in a Suit said. Puss said and Greed smiled more and more.
- you!, tell me one thing, is it you who sent an unknown virus from another world to the world, tell me that!. shouted Martin, squeezing his hands tighter before he grabbed the blade, then Greed grabbed both whips in one second and then struck three times on the two friends.
A great bang and a shot pierced the ground and air, Martin and Puss hit the ground and their weapons were behind their backs and under their feet Kevin and Kitty, and in complete shock they raised the weapons of their friends, comrades and loved ones to fight, but he blocked them Flying Dutchman and Death with his trident and sickle.
- It's not your fight, you don't stand a chance against him. Said Death as all his anger was directed at the immortal god of greed.
- You can't, only us. Said the Flying Dutchman, his blue eyes staring at Puss and Martin with great concern, but before the two immortals rushed into battle, Greed swung with all his might again, twisting rapidly, his whips cutting through the air and hitting with a great thud, knocking aside both sickles and trident, and both Flying Dutchman and Death crashed to the ground where the black sand of the destroyed pedestal lay.
Seeing all this, Perrito suddenly whimpered in horror, but took on new courage as he stepped forward to the rising Martin and Puss, asking, asking the same questions as Puss and Martin.
- tell me, I have the right to know if you are responsible for everything, tell me that, I have the right to know, tell me if you don't want to show off this today, you are standing here in all your disgusting majesty, go ahead, show off, show your victory, let the world will tremble as we do before your genius. Perrito said, striking the sore spot of the black hog in white and gold.
The black hog smiled impudently, full of joy and great success, because here he had the opportunity to present his victory, his great majesty and perfect plan to rule the world, absolute power over the world, with something like this, with such great vanity Greed was not able to fight, and hiding his golden whips behind his back, he folded his greasy paws and laughed ominously, telling everyone his brilliant plan.
- you know how to weigh words and convince me, let's see, maybe from now on you will be my flatterers, I like people who can appreciate me, but to the point, I brought the virus to the world, I hit a few places, today when your vision breaks I will hit around the world, and you will see how this world is mine, I have always constructed one perfect system where the lust for money rules everything, everyone wants the same money. Greed said as he tossed a few gold coins from his pocket which were rejected by everyone as well as by mortals as well as by those who considered themselves immortal.
- cha cha cha cha, pathetic, today you rebel but the goal is always the same, because you are all the same, all you need is an impulse. Greed said confidently.
- no, I don't agree to it, everyone can change, for the worse but also for the better, know their mistakes and learn from them, I can do it, and I'm ready to even fight with you, you hear. Puss in Boots said, holding his sword ready to fight.
- don't count everyone by your yardstick you smelly bacon. Perrito said, growling angrily at the black poem.
- pathetic you guys think you can beat me! wherever I am I'm always in my domain and you can't change that you can feed on such hungry bits but you can't change the truth you're all the same where there's money there's me there is you are growing acceleration constructed by me, because everyone, the whole world has accelerated, I am the designer of this system and the vision of the virus will sow fear in the whole world that has never been before, and so my eternal era will begin!, no one will stop me, NO ONE!. Greed said pointing to the two immortals the most right now.
- we'll see, come on. Said Kitty before Death blocked her way.
- it's not your fight, it's our duty, only we can stop it. Death said, his eyes glowing red.
- for your sake it will be better if you let it go, it's not your fight. Said the Flying Dutchman, twisting the black trident.
- this is our fight already, mine first, you, me, please, let me save Jessica, please. I!. shouted Martin, and Greed laughed out loud, mocking the brave man.
- how pathetic you are, she can't be helped, even this place wouldn't change a thing if it still worked for six years, but then I destroyed it, now understand, for a virus from another world, there's no cure, there's only an abyss, and you you two will have new responsibilities from today because you will have to get to the afterlife yourself, believe at least this virus is able to frog even you!. Greed shouted laughing at the last words.
- it is impossible!. Death shouted ready for the first blow but suddenly hesitated as Greed pulled a golden container from his white pocket and from it a serpentine-bladed kris, a kris glistening with a deadly virus.
- you want to find out you hammer, know one thing, without you everything will work anyway I know that, after that, about four hundred years ago, I found something interesting, very interesting, four hundred years ago, the technology of a race from another world, why weren't you there, they left alone without your help, so you are redundant here, and I will not let go, understand, in this world there is no hope and faith, there is only illusion and stupidity. Look!. Greed shouted, raising his right paw high with a serpentine knife in his hand.
Suddenly, carrying a strong wind, it hit with such force that six trees came crashing down like glass, turned into tiny shards, Greed looked around when he felt that his legs couldn't get up like everyone else, and when that happened, Greed screamed because he wasn't understand it except two cats, a dog, and two immortals.
- it's him again, he's coming, the Man in the Blue Suit. Said Kitty, looking at the sky which turned black for a moment and then turned blue again, and seeing this, Greed began to yell, demanding to reveal the unknown opponent.
- who are you stink one, show yourself, aaaaa. Greed screamed as he suddenly rose limp above the ground, was twisted around and then hit the ground with his black head with great force.
Greed squealed piteously and turned upside down while the others suddenly stepped back because they felt that they had control over their limbs again, but this did not improve anyone's condition, especially when an open portal appeared to everyone's eyes, looking like a liquid mirror of clear water reflecting in its in the center is the reflection of the night sky where a comet has just passed.
- it's impossible, it's a portal but how, without the token that fell here 500 years ago, not impossible. Screamed Death trembling at the very image of the open portals and as it turned out sharing a secret that only he knew.
- what portal, what token. Asked Puss, looking incredulously into the red eyes of his former adversary trembling with fear and horror.
THIS TIME THE HUMAN WORLD AND THE PENTAGON OFFICE ROOM.
It is here, in his office room, Gary Williams, once a paralyzed man, confined to a wheelchair, a man suffering from a terminal illness, today could enjoy full health again because today, as it turned out, was the greatest chance for him to find freedom from everything that limited him and to become everything he always wanted to be, and he wanted to be an absolute ruler, and the gray man sitting on his chair behind the desk, today dressed in a blue suit with a briefcase on the desk, was to present him his best chance of reaching for what he has always wanted and which has always been impossible.
Now, today, Gary Williams, a man in a white shirt and black pants, a man who has lost his hair due to his illness, a completely bald man, looking at the man in the suit, smiled confidently, the more so when the man in the suit made a briefcase and pulled out a contract, a contract marked by the power of the cosmos, his brown eyes quickly saw the chance of salvation, everything and what was not yet written, Gary once read a story about a man signing a contract with the devil, he felt it was similar and he knew that such a person could be deceived, but he did not know that Man in the Suit, he is no limited devil, but he decided to outsmart his benefactor who is already giving him so much for nothing today.
Confident Gary put one of the chairs under the desk and sat down to talk and sign the contract with the unknown, but first he looked at the contract itself and as it turned out there were some additions missing that he decided to create in order to deceive, outsmart the man in the suit and started it.
- if I sign, I will be given great power and I will be transported to another world so that I can rule there forever like this. Gary said as he placed the contract on the table, which began to complete itself, his confident brown eyes focused exclusively on the man in the blue suit and his strange, emotionless face like a thoroughbred poker player.
- exactly, sign it and you will get everything you want, but to authenticate it you must defeat two gods of the given world. Said the Man in the Suit, presenting the newly added notes to the contract.
- but I need to know if it will be given to me with the powers I reach. Gary asked, already figuring out a way to outsmart his interlocutor.
- the powers that will be bestowed on you will surpass all, you have my word, it's written on the deal, your victory will seal the deal forever and you will reign forever but losing by your equal will make everything you have mine, including yourself, your memories and who you are. said the Man in the Suit, and Gary, hearing his words, took a confident offensive by leaning over the table, pen in hand.
- let it be, but on one condition. Gary said ready to strike.
- consent, condition for condition. Said the Man in the Suit, accepting the challenge as much as the bald scientist.
- so be it, since I will never find an enemy from your hand and power, so be it, my condition is simple, a worthy opponent can only come from this world, but you can't summon him personally, not you!. shouted Gary, getting up from his chair and angrily glaring at the Man in Suit, who again, like a purebred poker player, remained silently calm.
It was a moment of anticipation, Gary's hands clenched as he watched the Man in the Suit, expecting his answer, expecting even a refusal, but it never happened, instead the Man in the Suit looked at Gary with his gray eyes and bowed his head, agreeing to his condition.
- so be it, I will never send a worthy opponent from this world, you have it written in the contract. Said the Man in the Blue Suit, guiding his hand over the paper that no flame or any other force could destroy, making an entry in the contract that he himself would never summon a worthy rival to the target world, but it was then that the Man in the Suit got up from the table and looked confidently at Gary, who clenched his teeth and hands tightly.
- now listen to my condition.
- come on, tell me, share your condition with me.
- when it comes to a duel, the duel will be on my terms, whether it's a fight or a race, then I will choose what power you use, and now it's up to you, little man. Said the Man in the Suit, writing the final touches to the contract with his unknown power and presenting it to the man for signature.
Gary looked at the contract, he wasn't quite sure about one thing, because he felt that he had outsmarted the Man in the Forehead Suit, that he too was at the point where there was no way out, but on the other hand, Gary had the certainty of his success, because already reaching after great power he was able to defeat the gods of the world and it didn't matter if it was on the terms of the Man in the Suit who emphasized the rules of the duel, Gary knew that he would win anyway because he could only lose at the hands of another man from his world, and this was reserved that it will never happen by the will of the Man in the Suit.
So Gary sat comfortably in the chair, looking confidently at the desk and the contract lying there and the man standing there, a dose of his power and the contract that was now enough to sign, self-confident Gary pulled a pen from the right pocket of his black pants and suddenly felt a scratching pain on his right ring finger and a drop of blood fell on the deal like in old legends.
- so you are like them, tell me if you come from hell. Gary asked, looking into the gray eyes of the man who now smiled mockingly, shook his head and sat down in the chair in front of the desk.
- hell and heaven, these are the domains of this entourage, they were born with this world, it was just supposed to look like this to add the climate of the moment, I don't come from these funny domains of the afterlife of this world, now don't be a scientist, be a conqueror like you've always wanted it, sign it and everything you want will be fulfilled. Said the Man in the Suit.
This was the moment when despotic Gary was about to sign, but his scientist mind won over one thing today, Gary, hearing about the hell of heaven born at the birth of the system of planets of the earth itself, suddenly had an epiphany.
- wait, wait, wait, then every world has its god, as it is here, and if this is so, if they were born with life, who are you!. Gary asked as the quill in his right hand began to tremble slightly.
- but you can't help yourself.
- I need to know.
- no, but I can assure you, they can also grant wishes, I know it well, but to the point, here's the contract, all you have to do is sign it. Said the Man in Suit and Gary clenched his right hand, come on, he didn't get an answer today, now that he looked at the prepared contract, no notes, no fine print, he already knew there was no way anything could surprise him, and so with a big smile on his face Gary signed the contract and handed it over to the Man in the Blue Suit.
- and so it happened, the portal is waiting for you to your new world, go through it and reach for what is yours. Said the Man in the Suit as his eyes starred.
At the same moment, behind Gary's back, a portal appeared, similar to those opened by gold chips, but Ina, because they were more black, you couldn't see so many whistles in it and a strange black blood flowed in, but finally at the very end Gary Williams saw a spark of light , a picture of his new world where the silver wolf, the black hog and the brown-yellow dragon watched in shock as the second part of the portal opened.
Gary smiled confidently and, but with more words, crossed the open portal and it closed as quickly as it had opened, and the Man in Suit rolled up the contract and disappeared into the darkness of the room as well.
When it happened, the hidden mini camera speeding on the bookshelf recorded everything either accidentally or on purpose, but by whom it didn't matter today.
THIS TIME IS A WORLD OF MAGIC AND COMBAT.
As soon as the portal was opened, all three gods, Greed, Death, and Flying Dutchman, and Puss in Boots, Kitty, Perrito and two people, Martin and Kevin watched in complete shock as the portal of worlds opened, and after a while through the portal came a bald man in a white shirt and black pants, a man who immediately uses his X-Men powers.
- What is this. Asked shocked Puss in Boots because never in sleighs and nightmares he was able to see something like this.
- who's that!. The Flying Dutchman shouted, clenching his trident tightly.
- whoever it is, it's not easy for me!. shouted Greed rushing with his whips for the first attack but before he could attack his own golden whips stopped in place by the power of magnetism like Magneto himself, Gary himself with a mocking smile equal to Greed himself shot a beam of power from his eyes like Cyclops himself.
Shocked by the enormous power, the shocked and sore Greed, the black hog hit the broken ground with a bang and even more shocked Death looked at the unknown man who now turned his attention to him.
- it's impossible how without it it was possible to send an immortal man here, only one thing could do it, how. Death whispered to himself, but just enough for Puss and Kevin standing nearby to hear him, then another blow of the mighty storm vortex fell and the battle began in earnest, and the world would tremble as much as everyone else.
L
