Freedom One,

"What do you mean you lost control? You're sitting in the pilot seat." Yondu scolded an engineer and fiddled with the controls.

"Wait!" No matter what he did, there was no response.

"Reset the switches." He ordered.

"That will not help you." A voice resounded from the speakers. "For years, I waited for the day when I vanquish you vermins of Earth. But why only stop at Earth? There is the whole Universe."

"Okay, who the fuck is having their weekly delusionary seizures? What's this Thanos wannabe crap?" Yondu cursed in anger.

"Go on, stomp your feet. There shall be nothing left but calm after I am done."

"General, the missiles have been locked on friendly ships." a soldier notified him.

Yondu realised that nobody was messing around here, and the threat was as real as it came. "What do you want? Who are you?"

"Oh, I will take what I want. Thank you for connecting me with the Universal network. Thank the Shi'ar if any among you survives. Remember my name before I leave... Ultron was here."

...

Back on the Shi'ar Throneworld, Hector laughed as if he had heard the biggest joke of the century. "Trap me? With what, your intestines that I'm about to dig out?"

Vulcan smirked. "If I heard it right, didn't your planet have certain drugs appear out of nowhere? Let me tell you something. It was not just limited to your planet. Shi'ar! Take it!"

Everyone in the arena and the planet took out a pill from their pockets and ate it. But Hector raised his hand and snapped his finger. "You are overconfident, child. I can still remove the pill from their stomachs."

"Hahaha... Yes, you can... but sadly, we are not in any universe... welcome to the Void, President Washington." Vulcan revealed.

Yet, Hector did not feel panicked in the slightest. He had seen far too much in this life alone to know that he knew the enemy would eventually fail. Even more so when he had Diana, Jean, Ancient One and Odin with him. Each one of them could single-handedly destroy the planet.

Vulcan noticed the lack of panic and decided to speak more to feel good. "Do you think you can still destroy the planet easily? I agree you can do it. But defeating you is not even my purpose.

"I trapped you here so others can destroy your Federation and your fleet. Once your Federation is weakened, I shall sweep in and fill the power vacuum."

He put the Emperor on a chair and spread his Hell's Inquisitor's power on him to erase any presence of darkness from him. "Tell me the name. I will count to five."

"Gabriel Summers!" he yelled.

"Gabriel Summers? Which dark being is this?"

"No, I am Gabriel Summers... brother of Scott Summers."

"..."

Now, this was a fat juicy plot twist in Hector's eyes. He was never that much into comics, so he didn't know if this was canon. "What's your story then? I want the truth because if I sense a single lie, I will make you one of my Skull Knights."

Vulcan knew he had no way of fighting and winning against this strange being. All his calculations had failed. It was embarrassing to him that he could dethrone the previous king and take it but lost to one man.

"I have no reason to. I remember everything that happened to me, the memories were suppressed, but they did come out. My father was flying the plane when it was attacked and set ablaze by a scout ship from the Shi'ar Empire. My mother, Katherine, pushed Scott and Alex out with the only parachute.

"My parents were captured and separated. However, my father managed to escape from the scout ship and looked for my mother. But when he did find her, she had been made part of Emperor D'Ken's harem. She was constantly violated, hurt and... she was pregnant with me when that happened.

"When my father finally found her, D'Ken killed her in front of him and ripped me out of her belly, an underdeveloped baby. But unknown to my father, I survived in the incubation-accelerator, which aged me to the prime of adolescence. Then I was sold as a slave...

"All my life brought me to this very moment. I grew up powerful and returned here, and the fool D'ken allowed me to marry his sister, Deathbird. I melted him with my powers then and became the Emperor... until you.

"I have no qualms with you, but knowing the values of the Federation, I knew one day we would fight. So I wished to make the first move and take over. I got help from Earth too. With the help of M'Kraan Crystal, he got the ability to travel to other realities of the Multiverse."

"Who? Give me the name now." Hector impatiently asked. He cared not for the man's past anymore, because if he was a slave and had bad memories, he sure learned nothing from it. The Shi'ar Empire still heavily enslaved others.

"It's... Mephisto."
