Everything takes place in deep space… an empty corner of existence.
??? (Mystery Being):"So… it's you two. From the power I sensed, I expected more."
Darkness:"How did you find us?"
???:"After all these years, did you really think I wouldn't? Your presence… it was like a beacon. That much strength can't be hidden forever."
Light:"Darkness… I thought no one was supposed to know we were here…"
Darkness:"I didn't think they would find us. But their power… it's overwhelming. That must be how."
???:"No need to hide. Let's introduce ourselves.My name… is Ares."
Light:"That's nice and all—but we don't care."
🌌 Narrator:In the blink of an eye—no, faster—Light vanished.
He moved at infinite speed, reappearing behind Ares.His arm morphed into a blade of pure energy and pierced straight through Ares' chest—blood erupting into space.
Ares (smirking):"You think that would kill me?I'm Ares—the god of war and destruction.But I'll admit… you're fast."
Light (shocked):"What the—?!"
Darkness (shouting):"LIGHT—MOVE!"
🌌 Narrator:Light quickly pulled his arm back and leapt away as Ares began to regenerate.
Darkness:"He's got regeneration. A powerful one."
Ares (grinning):"My turn."
Darkness summoned a defensive orb—an energy sphere with star-level durability—shielding himself and Light.
Light:"What do we do if he can heal from anything?"
Darkness:"We destroy every atom of his body. Obliterate him with a multiversal-level blast. It's the only way."
Light:"Got it."
Ares threw a single punch—and shattered the shield like glass.
Before he could react, Darkness appeared above him and sliced his head clean off using a sword forged from his orb.Then—
Light unleashed a multiverse-level blast, incinerating every last molecule of Ares' body.
They made sure the blast didn't harm their own multiverse.
Darkness (panting):"...Wait. I sense another presence."
Light:"But… didn't we just kill Ares?"
Darkness:"We did."
Light (eyes widening):"DARKNESS—MOVE!"
🌌 Narrator:In a flash unlike anything ever seen—not infinite speed, not even time-stopping—Light tapped into a new kind of speed.
Faster than speed itself.Faster than existence.
He dashed behind Darkness—...and was instantly absorbed by three mysterious entities—each radiating power beyond comprehension.
Darkness (turning in horror):"What did you just do to my brother?!"
???:"My name is Hades.These two beside me? You don't need to know them."
Hades (coldly):"And don't worry…You'll be fighting me now."
Darkness:"Why?!"
Hades:"There's no place in existence for beings like you two.You murdered a fellow god—one I knew.So, I took your brother.And there's no way… no way you'll get him back."
Darkness (cracking):"He was… the only thing I had…"
Hades (laughing):"Too bad.He's gone now."
🌌 Narrator:Rage exploded from Darkness like a supernova.
His power spiked beyond reason—rupturing through space.
20 multiverses shattered.Gone.Erased in a blink.
Hades (stunned):"No… his power is… more than I imagined…"
Hades merged with the two powerful beings beside him—growing even stronger.
But now—it was just them.
Two beings.
Alone in the void.
Where everything began.
Darkness (low growl):"You will feel pain like no other."
Hades (gritting his teeth):"Bring it."
🌌 Narrator:Darkness morphed five of his orbs into the sharpest blades ever created.
He teleported behind Hades—
—and stabbed all five deep into his body.
Hades (coughing violently):"Wh—Why do I still feel the pain?!"
Darkness:"Because I made it so you always will.You can heal…but you'll suffer forever."
Hades (screaming):"Impossible! This kind of power shouldn't exist!"
Hades:"Then take this! A cosmic nuke—enough to destroy an entire galaxy!"
He charged a devastating blast—unleashing unimaginable energy.
🌌 Narrator:But when the dust cleared…
Darkness stood unfazed.
Darkness:"Now… I will hit you with one billion punches in less than ten seconds."
Hades (panicking):"No—wait—I'm sor—!"
It was done.
A billion strikes landed.
Hades was still alive… but broken.
Darkness:"You're only alive because I let you live."
Hades (bleeding, barely breathing):"Why…"
Darkness:"So I can absorb you.You. My brother's stolen power.The strength of all you've killed."
Hades (final breath):"You don't understand…There are beings—millions of times stronger than me.No matter what you do…You'll be hunted.You'll be alone.You'll never… get him back."
🌌 Narrator:Darkness said nothing.
He reached forward—
…and absorbed Hades.
His brother's stolen power.Hades' divine might.It all became his.
Now…
There is only Darkness.
Alone.In the endless void.
No stars.No life.No brother.
Only him.
