Detective Dickson 4 : Shadow of despair

A formidable plan

Hundreds of years before the birth of Larias, the infinite multiverse lived in constant fear of a mighty entity, his origin unknown by all lower beings, he was called various names, Merchant of death, Master of Fear, Lord of darkness, Shadow king and so much more. He had the physique of a human man, a grey strange face and he wore a black feathery coat, the remaining part of his body was clothed in black miasma.

He ravaged various life forms, murdering everyone in his path who he thought was not worthy of the gift of life, everyone (humans, microbes, giants, vampires, werewolves and all creatures that ever existed) trembled and were scared by this terrifying quiddity.

"Shades of boredom, how's it hanging" came Ixonquious voice as he stood facing the fearful esse, they were both present in a universe called Universe AI, but they weren't standing in a spherical planet, in this universe, all the planets were flat as a table, also, it's planets were one of the most durable in all creation as it weighed eight hundred and seventy nine tredecillion tons in mass. Ixonquious was surrounded with his comrades, Dracula, a six foot tall vampire, he had dark hair which came down and brushed the sides of his face, dark eyes reflecting intensity and seriousness, his skin was pale white, he was dressed in a long black cloak which even covered his feat, Mina and Drala appeared to be close to the same height, they were both beautiful women, Mina was blonde haired with blue eyes and a clear, smooth skin while her counterpart was black haired with brown eyes and an even supple skin tone, Drala was dressed in a black latex suit which made her curves and shape more profound, Mina was dressed in a long purple cloak with different designs, she looked like a medieval mage, except she didn't wear a hat. Ixonquious was dressed practically the same as Han Solo from Star wars.

"You are just five pathetic mortals, you don't stand a chance against me" The fearful entity says, as he spoke, his words carried a great dread and fear, they were in an area with growing vegetation and greenery, even more exquisite than the Amazon but as the entity had finished speaking, all the plants around instantly vanishes to nothingness, now they all stood in a desert, it had instantly changed the nature of the entire universe(the universe being Infinite in size and incomprehensible in magnitude) not just the planet to be one vast barren land.

"Dude, you are so intense, I wonder how your wife copes, ooh I forgot you don't have one, you are just a lonely sack of boredom" Ixonquious jokes.

"Heeeeey, why am I always forgotten, this is no longer making sense" screams a voice, it appeared to be coming from Ixonquious left shoulder.

"Hey, Kubol was up, why do you sound like you want to cry" Ixonquious grins. Kubol was about seven centimetres in height, he had a human body physical structure but in his face, he just had one big eye and a mouth, he was dressed in a strange brown outfit.

"I am always being forgotten whenever we go on this quests, even the villians don't recognize me, I feel so useless" Kubol says, tears filling his eyes.

"Cheer up" Mina says.

"You ain't that useless, you display stupidity from time to time lighting up our mood" Drala says in succession.

There was a scowl on Kubol's face, he didn't like what was being said about him.

"I honestly don't understand why Ixonquious carries you along, even the dust on my heels has proven to he of far more use and wonder what's more perplexing, the dust has no use" Dracula says aloud, his face reddening.

Kubol's eyes even got more teary, as he looks over at Ixonquious' face, he wanted to hear a compliment.

"Y'all, you don't have to be so mean, Kubol is useful sometimes, remember that one time when he.... that one time when he..." Ixonquious says aloud closing his eyes and trying to think of something useful Kubol had done

"Yeah, remember that one time when he took my gold coin which fell under that new construction back in the Cyborg planet of Universe X."

"That was me, I used my telepathic abilities to get it, Kubol got lost and we had to spend seconds trying to rescue him, valuable seconds where we could have saved countless galaxies from demise" Drala says her face getting flustered.

"You impudent mortals, you stand before me and chatter, I shall have you pay" The entity voices aloud.

"Ooh yeah, shades of sadness, I totally forgot you were here, man, you know like your appearance, you are damn insignificant and unnoticeable" Ixonquious smiles.

"Am I really this useless" Kubol says aloud tears wetting his eyes.

"We will talk about that later, right now, we have got to stop this entity" Mina says aloud as green runes appear on her two palms.

Dracula dashes to the entity, he was stopped midway by an invisible being, Dracula jumps back with caution, right before him, a perfect replica of himself appears, similar to the entity, the replica was cloaked in darkness. The entity was just gray and black in appearance, he wore a feather coat and a strange black attire.

"One of his tricks? Let's test the versability" Dracula thinks as he morphs into a bat flying.

The replica smiles at him as it morphs into a bat too.

"Owww, shit" Dracula frowns.

"Y'all, Ladies, remember the plan" Ixonquious says aloud as he vibrates his left arm as fast as he could, he makes contact with the space around him, a singularity appears sucking everything up into it, it was a black hole. Ixonquious appeared unfazed, even the two ladies. Kubol was still on his shoulders, he appeared to be locked in despair.

Ixonquious smiles as he jumps into the black hole, another black hole reappears behind the entity, Ixonquious smiles at himself, he clearly thought he had the edge. He makes contact with the entity but it vanishes into whip of darkness.

He feels a sharp piercing pain through his guts, he turns and looks backwards, right there was a woman, she had a strong physique, it was impossible to see any other parts of the her as she was all cloaked in darkness. A small blade was in her right arm which she used to pierce Ixonquious, a long whip materializes in her other arm.

"Damsel, I see you into S & M, well, I am too, how about we quickly run off and have a quickie" Ixonquious says with what he hopes was a charming grin.

The grip on her weapon is loosened, though it was just a moment but that's what Ixonquious needed, he pulls out and connects his fist with her face,she staggers backwards crashing against the ground.

"Bet you didn't see that coming" Ixonquious smiles, he looks around, he was sure he had seen the entity around. He then put on his internal scan, instead of being in the desert that was created, he was in a realm of absolute darkness.

"A pocket realm, what a way to distract, dang, this is supposed to be my thing" Ixonquious smiles as his body turns golden, he expels a burst of power instantly shattering that realm to bits, Ixonquious looks around, now, he was back at the desert, he could see his comrades fighting, Dracula was battling a shadowy replica of himself, Mina was facing of a buff shadowy figure and Drala was facing a strange shadowy figure, it had six hands and each were equipped with long claws. Mina disappears, she reappears close to Ixonquious.

"See, who just decided to come back to reality, you spaced for two seconds" Mina says as the buff figure appears, he was holding a large club, he makes a lunge for Mina but his club hits an invisible barrier which causes him to move backwards.

"Wow, I was out that long, I thought I broke out almost immediately" Ixonquious says with a sly smile.

"By the way, where's Kubol."

"While you were spaced out, the lady you were in combat with helped herself to Kubol, she's going to meet up with her Shadow King" Mina says aloud.

"Nice, then the plans coming along well, what she doesn't know is that when she hit me, I placed a few talismen on her too" Ixonquious smiles.

Turning over to the shadows battling his friends

"Now, let's get this over with."

Ixonquious dashes to the buff figure, it swings at him but Ixonquious dodges with no sweat, he placed his right arm on left knee.

"Guys, y'all might wanna hurry with the foreplay, I got my own in position" Ixonquious says aloud.

Dracula smiles as he transforms to a giant, his replica to does but Dracula transforms back to a bat, dashing at him, he makes contact with his left arm.

"Took y'all long enough, I was growing bored of this" Drala says aloud as she extends her right arm, the shadowy figure she was battling draws close to her, she places her hands on her chest.

"My liege, I have brought the tinios as you requested me to" the shadowy woman who was once battling with said as she now approaches the fearful entity, she held Kubol in her left hand, he sat on a throne, the entire scenery of the area was grey and dark.

"Got ya" Kubol says as he places his hands on her little finger.

"What the..." The shadowy woman was about to say but a force pushed her outward sending her to the infinite beyond, where she once stood. Ixonquious, Drala, Mina and Dracula was now present, Kubol smiled as he leaps on to Ixonquious right shoulder.

"I prefer right, bitch" Kubol shouts aloud.

The entity had a perplexed look on his face

"I am an omnipresent being, I reside in the hearts and minds of every creature, I am everywhere, I have been watching your schemes, you were supposed to be playing into my trap not me into yours."

"Well, yeah, yeah, stop boring us with all that dumb talk, we both know it's boring like the one who has been speaking" Ixonquious smiles at him

"This isn't the first time we came in contact with each other, you always detect my plans cause your consciousness resides everywhere in the multi-verse but your physical form limited to one, your consciousness which is also bound by your limited knowledge, we have a telepathic empress here" Ixonquious grins as he turns towards Drala, looking back at the entity

"She had connected us all to be able to view each others thoughts without us even speaking about it, I just had to show her a few other body signals, also we were using hand signs in our minds to communicate our plan, even though you were present, it didn't make sense to you cause we did it in bits not just at once, we scattered our planning across hours, days, weeks so it wouldn't be obvious at all, also some times, we'd do fake hand signs that meant nothing in case you tried to piece everything together, you had publicly told us you would be here but we knew it was false, you resided in this realm where only you or your generals could access, you sent your three generals after us as I predicted, also, you manipulated Dracula's shadow to show that exact replica of him with his exact abilities, experience and personality, I was aware of this, we all communicated that..."

"Even if you did, there's no way you could have won, I watched Kubol while he built those talismen, he were so lackadaisical about it, ignoring the project for weeks and coming back later" the entity says aloud, his voice wore amazement.

"Relax, shades of dullness, it was all part of my plan, we communicated it with each other, we have always had you in a checkmate, the only thing holding us back was that we hadn't moved our piece yet and now we have."

"Even if you used those talismen to send my generals to the infinite beyond, I still exist and I am perfectly invulnerable, there's no stopping me, you foolish mortals" The entity says as the throne he was sitting vanishes to dust, he's now on his feet, he had never expected what would happen.

"You don't give me enough credit, there's a reason why no one has been able to outsmart me yet, it's because I am the best at what I do" Ixonquious smiles.

"And what's that" Mina says shooting a cautious grin at Ixonquious.

"fucking pussies" Ixonquious says with a sly smile as he nods his head.

"This won't be good" Kubol thinks as he leaps off Ixonquious' shoulders.

Drala dashes towards him, lifting up her left leg, she hits him in between the legs.

"Oooouuuuccccchhhh" Ixonquious screams as he lands on the ground rolling, yet, Drala didn't stop, she keeps hitting him vehemently on the ground, Mina comes to join her too.

"These mortals really are haughty, they are in my presence and see how they act, like I am nothing to be feared, I shall wipe them out of existence now" The entity thinks as he now faces them.

"Meglor, that can't work on us, we had a little visit with the mistresses too as you are aware, we have their favour to defend against a hax like yours, though it can wipe out the infinite multiverse if you so desire but it's useless against us" Dracula says as he now faces the entity.

Meglor was amazed, that was the first time he ever heard anyone say his name.

"Yeah, as you can guess, the mistresses even disabled your omnipresence for a while, you just weren't aware, it's high time you say your prayers" Mina smiles, she had stopped hitting Ixonquious.

"So we brought you a present, it's single use, that's why your generals didn't get a taste" Ixonquious who was on the ground said smiling.

"Rrrrrrrr Rrrrrrrr Rrrrrr" came the sound of a vibrating pink dildo in Drala's right arm, it had just appeared and was about nine inches long and it's girth was about two inches.

"The greatest sealing device in existence, it can even seal a god but as Ixonquious said, it can only seal one creature."

Meglor shifts back in visible horror

"Don't peg me, I don't do such."

"Come on, man, be open to new experiences" Ixonquious smiles as he grabs the dildo from Drala and leaps at him, Meglor stretches forth his right hand which he used to grasp Ixonquious face turning Ixonquious' body to nothingness.

He feels something in between his ass buns.

"I knew you are immune to Drala's mind manipulation, sorry for you nigga but what you just killed was an afterimage dud, I created one as you made contact and also teleported instantly, though your consciousness can perceive everything even behind you but the mistresses also blessed us with a few perks enabling us to be able to match and contend with you, that's why I could get the jump."

Those were the last things Meglor saw before he vanished into nothingness.

Ixonquious holds the dildo up.

"Whoo, that was a blast, wasn't it guys, let's go to planet Reko of Universe 27 and have pizza, I am starving."

"We need to secure the seal device, Meglor must never be allowed to return" Mina says with a grave look.

Kubol jumped on Ixonquious' left shoulder

"Yes, I agree with the lady."

"Same" Dracula said in unison.

"I agree with them, though Meglor's generals have been thrown into the infinite beyond which distance away from creation is far beyond even infinity, said that only the celestials can comprehend the distance and nature of it but we are dealing with Meglor's minions, they posses incredible abilities and can most likely make it, we need it to be in safe hands" Drala says concern written all over her face.

"Okay, fine, fine, I see your point" Ixonquious smiles as he punches the air, the space rips and a blue wormhole appears.

He throws the dildo in it and almost instantly, the wormhole disappears.

Everyone had startled looks on their faces.

"How could you do that, we are supposed to take it back with us" Drala and Mina retorts angrily in unison.

"Calm down, pretty faces, if his generals manage to make it back, they would first approach us for the seal, also it has no energy signature so they can't track it so I simply sent it to a world far ahead in time and space which had a lot of that constructive makeup in stock" Ixonquious smiles

"And guess what, I don't even know the place so I am totally blank, also the multiverse is constantly evolving and growing, it's flawless logic, it'd be nearly impossible for them to find and if they do, we will just beat the crap outta them again."

"Well, that's quite logical though I wouldn't call that flawless, it has his drawbacks" Drala says aloud.

"Don't be such a wuss, woman, I already lost my appetite for pizza, I am thinking threesome, hours of intense smashing" Ixonquious smiles as he turns towards the two ladies with a sly and creepy grin

"How about we venture on one?"

The two ladies flare up in anger as they dash towards Ixonquious pummeling him to the ground.

Kubol jumps on Dracula's shoulder almost immediately

"Care for popcorn" Dracula asks.

"I'd love some" Kubol smiles, a small bucket of popcorn appear in Kubol's arms and a big bucket appear in Dracula's hands, they smile as they watch the ladies manhandle their team leader while enjoying popcorn.
