I own nothing...

Chapter 0: The forge reawakens?

The room is dark... nary a single sliver of light to be found beside the light of a computer monitor screen in which a single... entity of sorts is tapping away at the keys on the keyboard. There is silence beyond to clacking of keys on the keyboard, until an alarm alert goes off. The entity springs up from its seat, shock and befuddlement present on its face as it rushes out of the room, down the hall, quickly heading to a room with a plaque on the door that read "Celestial World Forge".

The entity bursts through the door utterly alarmed as the forge was lit, the heat slowly rising as a worker fanned the black starry night-looking flames hotter. The entity then shouts at the worker, "Stop! What the hell are you doing #787?! Shut the forge down!"

The worker, not stopping what he's doing, merely states over his shoulder to the entity, "Sorry boss, no can do. The work order was approved so I need to get started on building the new world design."

The entity, angered by Worker #787's words, merely reached out with a red tendril and grabbed Worker #787 around the waist and brought him closer, the entity's anger palpable as he hissed out, "Under who's authority were you told to build a world without my permission?"

Worker #787 looked terrified as he merely said, "L-Lord Carnage945... You were the one who signed off on the work order..."

The entity, Carnage945, looked confused before he saw a piece of paper sticking out of Worker #787's pocket, which he plucked from said pocket and chose to read it over. As Carnage looked over the nonredacted parts, he looked both mortified and furious before saying to Worker #787, "Are you telling me... That my idiotic ADHD-riddled brain... Had thought of creating a CYOA?! And of WORM no less! I haven't even the slightest clue about the canonical knowledge and continuity of Worm! Let alone it's sequel, Ward!"

Worker #787 winces as Carnage shouts his frustrations before saying "Sir...? There's more to it than just Worm..." Carnage turns his head to Worker #787 and growls out, "And what more is there?!" Worker #787 winces as he says, "It's a crossed world..."

Carnage goes silent before saying slowly, as if he had misheard the worker's words, "What did you say...?" Worker #787 winces again, especially since Carnage's tendril was tightening itself around him a bit. "The world is crossed, sir..." Worker #787 says while looking nervous. Carnage merely has his tendril drop Worker #787 and says, "You have 10 seconds to explain what singular world is crossed with Worm that will supposedly help me create whatever this cluster fuck is..." Worker #787 immediately jumps to his feet and says quickly, "5 worlds, sir..."

Carnage looked like he was about to have an aneurysm before he asks, "5 worlds...? What 5 worlds...?" Worker #787 looks utterly terrified as he says "RWBY, Highschool DXD, Supernatural, My Hero Academia, and the DC universe...?" Carnage has reached an all time high of anger and frustration as he grabbed Worker #787 by his own belt, removed said belt and proceeded to chase the poor worker around the forge while shouting, "Get your ass back here so that I can make you into a sacrificial lamb! You want this damn amalgamation to live then you'll live through it yourself!!!"

"My lord! Please! Control yourself! Remember your blood pressure!"

"I'll show you blood pressure! Get your ass back here!"

Carnage chased the poor worker up and down the forge until he stopped and looked at the work order, his eyes showing a look of contemplation as his eyes raked over the paperwork... 'Could he even do this anymore?' was the most prominent question in his mind... "Am I even capable of doing stories anymore...? Can I even hope to actually start and stick to this...?" Carnage thinks to himself for a little while longer.

"I suppose I can give it a try... If all else fails i can just send the idea to someone else with better talent." Carnage takes a deep breath before heading to the forge, placing the paper inside of it and watching as the paper turned into a small sort of round rock. "The die has been cast... Let us hope that who ever reincarnates into this world, will be able to save it despite everything they will face." Carnage says one last time...
