Meta Essence Gacha in Marvel Chapter 101: My Goth Girlfriends and The Interdimensional Re

....

Hector P.O.V.

"Sorry if I startled you… I just blurted out…" I say, now sitting face to face with Raven on a small table that I put to us.

"Who blurts out a marriage proposal?" She makes a fair point with that bored tone of voice of hers

", apparently." I shrug "I just saw you and instantly imagined our whole life together…"

"..." She looks at and even though her eyes are obscured by her hood, I can see the judgnt on them "I'm starting to regret coming here… Maybe death was not so bad."

"Don't be like that… How bad could it be, really? We go on dates, reading books in dark rooms, your(thicc) legs over mine, chilling, cuddling…" I give her my best smile.

"..." Maybe I'm arrogant, but I will take her silence as her not having an answer to my excellent argunts instead of thinking that I'm a hopeless weirdo.

"But don't worry, I will not force you into anything that you don't want." I say. I have so power over her, so let's clear the air already. "But at the sa ti, you also can't stop from trying…" I smile at her again

"You're barking at the wrong tree… I can't be in a relationship…" She says calmly.

One of the things I notice about Raven is that I really can't feel her emotions with my empathic powers, she really trained well to not leak anything.

"You are aware that you are one Multiverse away from your father, right?" I ask with a raised eyebrow "He has no power over you anymore… You can do whatever you want."

"..." It seems that I talked too early, I just felt so fluctuations in her emotions… Is that surprise, that I'm feeling from her? It seems that her technique to mask emotions is not perfect.

I can also feel… panic? Strange, but I can understand. Sotis when you suddenly acquire that thing that you always wanted, you don't know what to do…

There's nothing much I can do for her beyond smile and allow her to heal. I know that her past is very shitty.

I take her hand over the table.

"You are safe here, Rachel."

"...' I will consider a small win that she didn't pull away.

...

"Hector, if Helena and I switched bodies, and to switch back you would need to have sex with one of us… You would prefer to have sex with in her body or with her in my body?" Shego suddenly asks after I just entered the living room of my house.

"..." I sit down slowly while keeping eye contact "Seriously… Who the hell starts a conversation like that? I literally just sat down!" It's always nice to be able to quote so s~ The situation is perfect too.

"Don't avoid the question… Answer it!" Shego urges while Helena looks at us strangely

"Like I said in the past, I can't be forced to choose… I'm too powerful to be forced into this situation. I can simply switch you two back." I answer calmly. As if I'm gonna walk into this trap… Maybe I can tease her a little though.

"No, no, no! That doesn't work! You can't change us back because we are like cursed by soone really powerful." She argues

"Then I would go after this soone and find a way to deal with this curse…" I deadpan

"No! you are not playing by the rules!" She practically pouts

"I'm Eidolon, woman. I play by my own rules." I declare

"Bleh! Just answer the damn question!" She shows her tongue before urging again

"Why the heck do you want to answer a question without a right answer?"

"Because it's fun…" Won are devils…

"Let show you what is fun~" I smirk and point at her and Helena. "Room…"

Their eyes widen as they see stabbing my finger in their direction.

"Hector, don't you da-!" Helena starts but I interrupt her, twisting my fingers a little, and they pause.

"..." Huhu~

They took a second or two to look at themselves and then a each other, their faces morphing into one of annoyance.

"That's your fault, Shego." 'Shego' says in an uncharacteristic flat tone "Switch us back, now!" She demands.

"Yeah, before that girl kisser starts having weird ideas about my sexy body." 'Helena' says, also with a strange tone coming from her mouth. So weird~ Haha

"No…" I raise my hand to Helena, who is on Shego's body, and then turn to Shego that's on Helena's body. "Why don't you tell then… As my girlfriend maybe you should be the one making the decision. Go on… Choose. Would you prefer that I slept with you or Helena? Hypothetically, of course…"

At the sa ti that I said that I pulled them to telekinetically, making them sit on the armrests of my chair, my hands on their hips.

"This is sooo weird." 'Shego' says while looking genuinely freaked out.

"Indeed." 'Helena' agrees, caressing my hair.

"Don't flirt using my body!"

"Go on, Shego. I will answer after you." It's my ti to urge her.

But she doesn't hesitate "Her in my body." She points at her body

"..." 'Shego' pauses, surprised.

I am too "Really?"

"Obviously, it's a matter of perspective. This way you will not have contact with her body." She says. I think only she thinks that this is obvious "I don't care if you pork her a little… The poor woman is on a dry spell. She needs it."

"Fuck you."

"You are strange, my love." I shake my head.

She shrugs her arms "And I also think it would be strange to use this body…" She adds "Now you, answer!"

I pause and sigh. I hug them tighter, making them get closer as I put my face close to their ears. Then I whisper…

"Obviously the two~" I pinch their waist, eliciting a moan from the two. Seeing 'Helena' moaning is a surprise treat "Don't forget… I can't be forced to choose."

After that, I give a peck on their faces and move fast, leaving the chair and letting them fall in the middle together. At the sa ti, I switch them back.

Blowing them a kiss, I go to the kitchen.

I hear Shego saying behind "I can accept that answer." I can also almost hear Helena rolling her eyes, despite being impossible.

The peace that I sought in the kitchen seed distant when I noticed Shego following . I love this woman and I know she loves , but she also loves to annoy .

"I didn't ask you about that Lady Sif woman…" She says, catwalking through the kitchen.

"Yes, you asked. And I truthfully said that nothing happened beyond that kiss with Lady Sif." I say while grabbing so things around the kitchen to make a sandwich… "Do you want one?" I ask gesturing to the food.

"No, thanks. I'm good." She waves her hand before going back "And is one of those interrogation tactics, you know? You ask the suspect to repeat their story many tis to see if he is inventing things. Checking the irregularities…"

"So now I'm a suspect under investigation?" I chuckle while making my sandwiches. They will be heavenly!

"Always, you manwhore!" She chuckles too

"Don't you think that I'm smart enough to rember all the details of any fake story that I can concoct? Just take my word for it…" I finish my superb sandwich. Beautiful~

"Hm~, those things look good…" Shego comnts while eyeing my sandwiches "Can I have one?" She asks shalessly.

"..." I stare at her with a deadpan expression. "Really? I asked if you wanted one before… Lucky to you I ignored your words and did it anyway." And I shove a separate sandwich in her face, exactly like how she likes it.

She smiles while receiving her food "That's why I love you~" She moans when she takes a bite.

"I'm a prepared guy, and having your girlfriend eyeing your food is a canon event of every boyfriend…" I joke, taking a bite of my own. Hm, yep. I'm the god of food!

"Anyway, going back… did you really not even dip the tip or anything like that?" She asks. Like a dog with a bone.

I don't think she is even jealous, she probably just wants to keep her list of "enemies" updated. I still rember how clingy she was while I talked with Susan Storm.

The "missed-you-sex" later that night was great too. But maybe it can be called "marking-territory-sex" instead.

"Let it rest, Shego. I know that I'm super sexy and irresistible to every female out there." I say cockily, making her scoff "And I will not deny that I was a little tempted by Sif. But I have more self-control than that…"

"Hm, Hard to believe, it was basically the perfect opportunity." She comnts while eating her sandwich.

She is talking about that rule that she established in the beginning.

In the event of hooking up with soone else, I would be rightfully denied of her marvelous green booty for so ti, because I would be slling like the "skank" or sothing like that.

It was a smart move from her, there are few people out there who would make forsake my green goth girl, just for so casual gratification. But the trip to Asgard was really a good opportunity because I would stay away from her anyway.

"It's not because I can and I'm able to sleep with many won, that I will do that…" I roll my eyes.

"You say that now, then you suddenly appear married and with two children." She scoffs "Sotis I wish you are less serious and simply a horndog- Mpf!"

Seeing that this talk is going in circles I decide to do what is necessary to end this… Grab her jaw gently but firmly and steal a kiss.

Best way to shut up a woman… Don't do it if you are ugly.

"Mm~ Mn~" See? She already forgot about our talk, opting to concentrate on our sandwich-tasting kiss.

"Geez, get a room." Helena sighs while walking around the kitchen, she steals one of my sandwiches and goes away without even looking at us.

"..." Shego and I stay rooted in place, or making out session pauses while watching her go away.

"I was only half joking before… She really needs to be shagged." Shego comnts

"And you are saying this to why exactly?" I need to ask even though I have a good idea of the "why".

"Go be the hero she needs and save her from her dry spell. Give her the D."

"Too complicated…" I don't deny anything, I only state that things are not that easy.

"It's always complicated with you." She rolls her eyes "Whatever, let's go. I need help with my own dry spell." She starts dragging to the room

"We did it this morning…"

"Twelve hours is already too long for ."

.....

The next day I took Illyana out of the X-Mansion, I don't think she has seen the outside world that much, so…

"As my new protegé, there's sothing that you need urgently." As Eidolon, I open a portal to an unknown place.

"What?" She asks curiously while we cross the portal.

"Badass clothes, of course." I smile as we arrive at an isolated part of Edna's studio. Around us, there are many and many super-suits on display.

We have to pass through the security check to reach the main part of her studio but there are only so precautions against invaders.

Illyana looks around with a little amazent, she probably saw many strange and marvelous sights during her ti in Limbo, but I guess an artistic place purely dedicated to fashion must be new to her.

"Oh, there you are, darling" We hear her before we can even see her, and not because she is a diminutive woman. No, it's because Edna Mode likes theatrics, so obviously, she has the back of her chair facing us before she dramatically turns around "And this must be your new sidekick… Let take a good look at her!" She jumps from her unnecessarily big chair and walks to us with fast steps.

"This is Illyana, and Illyana this is Ed-" I go to introduce them but I am interrupted by Edna slapping my hand away.

"Shoo shoo! Let introduce myself… I'm Edna, darling." She takes Illyana's hand. The girl is a little overwheld by the stylist's intensity "Oh~, look at you~ Pretty like a doll." She says while eyeing Illyana up and down but with a soft and gentle tone of voice.

Edna can be a little… honest. But she knows that being under the scrutiny of soone can be uncomfortable for a girl, so she goes for the gentle auntie approach.

She takes Illyana around and makes her spin while raining complints on the blonde girl.

"Yeah, yeah~ Beautiful like a Russian winter, and I bet not less deadly!" Edna exclaims "Yes, darling! Now leave it to to show those qualities in your attire! Everyone will know that this rose has thorns!!" She strikes a pose and starts power-walking away, dragging Illyana with her

"Eh… okay…" Illyana answers a little unsure, giving looks.

I can only shrug at her. This is how Edna is…

...…

"So, I peeked in so other universe and saw older versions of Illyana." Now we all are sitting in our respective chairs while watching a screen as big as one you would see in a movie theater. "They are a little too revealing to our 12-year-old Illyana, but they can work as a base." As I say that, the drawing of canon Illyana appears on the screen.

"These are just so very tight pants and top." Edna scoffs

"I like the headdress…" Illyana says from her seat "And the color."

Edna scribbles sothing on the ample armrest of her chair "Then we can keep the headdress. Good, good… We can work around that."

"How about full armor? Without a helt…" I suggest "It will cover the body and go together with her sword…"

"That sounds cool." Illyana says

"It can work… We can use it to add another layer. We can keep the tight suit underneath… Full body, and cover with armor in so key points…" Edna draws the extra details over the images of Illyana "Shoulders, chest, gauntlet and greaves… An armored skirt too. Nothing too robust… Feminine… Strong and graceful!!"

"What about so spikes on the shoulder pads?" Illyana asks, making Edna give her a look

"So you are an edgy teen like him, huh?" She points at . Hey! "At least you have your age as an excuse… Hmpf, let's talk about those spikes later. Less is more, darling~"

"We can make more than one version…" I speak to help Illyana in her fantasies "No problem in having one exaggeratedly evil overlord looking." I chuckle

"We can do that… Let's go with a basic one first." Edna concedes and draws quickly so sketches and concept art of Illyana's future attire. "Black like this emo here, right? And the complentary colors?"

"Hm… Red should be cool. Yellow too… Blue… Red, yellow, and blue are the colors that my brothers use." Illyana says with an indecisive expression.

"More than three complentary colors is too much… Let's go first with red which is the common color of the two." Edna says and starts drawing so highlights on Illyana's armor.

So sharp, so curved lines… All of them are good.

"Better than yellow, we should go for gold… The sa color of your hair but with a shiny light." Edna explains "The blue should be the sa color of your eyes, maybe darker to not contradict the black. We can make red the predominant secondary color… Gold the highlights of the armor and blue in just so details and accessories… Maybe add a belt…"

"Or we can make more than one. Each with a different color." I say "You know that the cost is not an issue."

"That's true. Let's go with that…" Edna agrees and goes back to drawing "We can make each one a different style. The one with red can be the evil-looking with spikes…" She rolls her eyes "The black and gold should be regal! And the blue, soothing… Sleek… Modern… futuristic even!! Hahaha!"

"...is she always like that?" Illyana whispers to , but Edna heard

"I just love my work, darling!" She exclaims "I design to gods made flesh!! By the way, will the armor be made of adamantium?" After such a strong declaration, she goes back to ask professionally and casually.

"Of course. The suit underneath of UMF (Unstable Molecule Fabric." I nod

"Hm, at least the suit we can make easy to wear. The armor will be a little problematic… But I can find a way!"

"You know how I can produce it easily… Go crazy with the design. By the way, I was thinking about giving her a retractable shield in one of her gauntlets… A buckler that folds like a fan."

"Oh, so we are going to the accessories already? Great!"

...…..

Later I bring Illyana back to the X-Mansion.

It would take so ti for her attires to get ready, but Edna bombarded her with normal clothes instead. In her words, Illyana is "too cute to wear anything less".

I help her carry the bags filled with design clothes to her room, she is drinking a smoothie because obviously, the day needs to end with junk food.

"Thank you." She nods at , a little stiff. I guess that she is still unused to being treated well or thanking people.

"It's okay. It was fun for too…" I like training people and seeing them reach great heights. With Illyana is like I'm creating a new character, with a different build. I even chose her skins, haha.

"It's okay for to have all those things?" she raises the bag in her hand.

"Edna is a softie that likes spoiling people. Believe , she was happier giving them to you than you were receiving them."

"Okay then…" She speaks softly

"I will co get you when your things are ready. Bye, Illyana. Brush your teeth before going to bed" I wave at her.

"I'm not a kid!"

...

Third Person P.O.V.

Widowmaker is enjoying her new life. Enjoying a hot beverage in an open café on a cold evening of Paris. She is also enjoying her anonymity, with the use of a trinket her skin becos fair, and her brunette hair… Normal.

The world that was denied to her already welcos her back… It was so easy that it was almost underwhelming.

"What are you thinking with this distant gaze, Alie?" While she was distracted he appears and unceremoniously sits in front of her.

Her new boss, Hector. She can't complain yet, for now, he only gave and hasn't asked for anything. But she knows that is just a matter of ti before he starts using her too, like all others.

"Just thinking that I can finally enjoy the Normal." She says honestly "Who would know that you would miss those small things that you take for granted." She will answer truthfully because she knows that she can't hide anything from him. Better to pass the image of an honest woman.

"I see… Because of your appearance. Pretty common thing between the people that I bring here." Hector nods while tapping his fingers on the table, asking for the waitress.

He got one easily, a rare thing to happen, maybe because he has a certain presence. He is a discreet man, but when he wants to, it's hard to ignore him.

After asking(in perfect French) for a drink and dessert he continues "But your line of thought is a little wrong and defeatist, Alie."

"Excusez-moi?"

"Why should you hide your beautiful skin and hair to be normal?" he smiles at her. She needs to admit that is a charming smile "The goal here is making your skin tone normal to everyone, Alie. Don't settle for less. No need to hide."

"..." He is an ambitious man. But his ambition is weird in her eyes, not born of selfishness. Her lack of empathy makes his actions strange. "You didn't co here only to have a chat right, mon cher?"

"Well, I could have… You would be surprised by my lack of hidden intentions." He comnts calmly "But yes, I ca to pass so tasks…"

"Who do I have to kill?" She asks in a calm voice like she is asking about online shopping

"Just so criminals." He answers in a similar tone "Be discreet."

That's more her style, if he didn't show a dark side, then she would really feel weird.

...….

Rachel Roth(Raven) P.O.V.

"Let's go on a date!" Hector suddenly appears loudly, destroying the quietness and the silence of my new apartnt.

"No." I answer dryly and quickly.

"Okay then." He answers equally quickly and simply sits down.

"..." I try to ignore him while I continue to make my coffee, but his gaze is burning the back of my head. "What do you want?" I turn to him. He is simply staring at with a small smile.

"Nothing. Just admiring you…" He says shalessly "First ti that I'm seeing you without the hood and the magic to obscure your face."

"There's nothing to see…" I'm just plain and boring.

"I have to disagree. You are beautiful."

"..."

"..."

I try glaring at him, to pass the ssage that he is annoying but he simply smiles… Like a dumb labrador. Should I open a portal under his feet?

But I lost all the will to kick him away looking at that stupid face. It will be like kicking a puppy…

"Do whatever you want… I'm gonna ignore you now." I say and go back to sit as far away from him as possible, my book and my mug of coffee floating around .

"..."

"....."

"..."

He is really just standing there!

"Oh, demonology?" He finally says sothing, head tilted to read the words on the spine of the book.

I'm gonna ignore him.

"I compiled a lot of those if you want…"

Ignore him, ignore him…

"It must be different from you Multiverse… A lot of new information…"

Ignore him!

"It is on the shared files in the tablet I gave you…"

"I prefer having a book in my hands…" Shit, I talked!

"I know exactly what you are talking about!" He agrees with my words easily "I have so physical copies here…I can bring the rest later." He says and reaches with his hand inside a pocket space and removes dozens of books from there.

Ignore him…

"Later, I can take you to Kamar-Taj… The Ancient One is a good guy…"

Ignore him.

...…..

The next day, the sa happened…

"Let's go on a date!"

"No!"

"Fine." And he sits down "What are you reading today?" he asks innocently

In a certain way, I appreciate that he didn't force the issue of going out… Few things are as annoying as being forced to do extrovertive activities when you don't want to.

...…

"Let's go on a date!"

"Fine!" I finally agree, annoyed.

"Oh…" He opens a big smile despite my clear annoyance

"But you are gonna leave alone after today…" I put a condition.

"Only for so days." He bargains

"Okay, fine." Whatever, I know him a little better now, so I'm sure that it will not be a torturing experience at least.

He ends up taking on a not-so-small trip around Europe. Instead of romantic places, we visited historic monunts from eras long past…

He really didn't treat it as a date, but more like a school trip, showing the world and telling interesting trivia about it. He is very knowledgeable and smart, I already know that.

I was already thinking that he forgot that he called it a date when the "date" part started.

At so point, we need to eat… and.. and… Oh my god, it's so over the top that I want to cringe into a ball and die.

"A pretty flower… To the pretty lady~" He gave a black rose while exaggeratedly wiggling his eyebrows.

"..."

There was a mont when he put the rose between his teeth and asked for a dance while so street musicians perford… I ran away.

When I saw him going down on his knee, I almost blasted him with my magic!! We are surrounded by people!!! Thankfully he stopped and said that it was a joke!

There is that ti on those geyser-like things on that fountain… Ugh…

"Oh no~ My white shirt got wet~" He said while keeping eye contact with while passing a hand through the outline of his pecs and abs… Biting the lip!!

He even dramatically removed his wet glasses and combed his hair back…

Oh… He is hot…

Azarath trion Zithos. Azarath trion Zithos. Azarath trion Zithos.

"You're impossible…" I groan while eating my food, rembering the sha that he made go through.

His answer is laughing "Would you believe in if I said that that was out of character to too?"

"No." I deadpan at his words

"Pfft, haha. I'm serious… I'm also more of an introverted… But you are worse, sooo… Relatively, I'm the extroverted here. Then I decided to accept the role fully."

"You accepted it too well…"

"I can't deny that it was fun… And seeing you embarrassed was more than enough reward." He smirks

"Ha… Ha… Very funny… Do it again and I'm banishing you to a hell dinsion." Despite my threat, he only laughs.

"I would co back anyway… You're not escaping from ."

"You are really being serious in this whole pursuing thingie?"

"Yes…" He nods easily "Being honest, I normally don't chase won. It gives leverage to be manipulated or even hurt… But I know that you are not like that, so I will do it. And instead of being weird or creepy, I will do it in a lighthearted way… We have ti, I think eventually you will see that I'm quite a catch." He finishes his words winking at .

"Too late in the weird part." I deadpan and he laughs again. This guy is unflappable.

Later he took ho, I was a little anxious thinking that he would try sothing at my apartnt, but he only opened his arms and said…

"Hug?"

"...no."

"C'mon, don't I deserve a hug?" he is not discouraged "It will also be a good test… About your emotions and all that. We can start small."

"..." I can't fault his logic…

"If you really don't wanna do it…" He starts to lower his arm like a sad puppy.

"Argh, fine." I decide to agree.

"Yes!" He celebrates openly.

"..." Is he really not afraid of showing those reactions to ? That honest part seems to be true at least…

He then slowly pulls into his chest, his arms enveloping …

This… this is pretty good.

He is really muscular beneath those loose clothes, shredded… He is warm too. His heartbeat is deep and calm… Wait… It is speeding up…

"..." Because of ? It's getting pretty fast and loud! He really likes !

Azarath trion Zithos! Azarath trion Zithos! Azarath trion Zithos!

...….

Third Person P.O.V

"Finally…" Eidolon exclaims after his portal is successful. He has the right coordinates and everything is stable.

He puts his head inside it and sees that is really what he is looking for.

Finding the Mojoworld was a more difficult task than he thought. Different from when he found Limbo and Svartalfheim, to save Illyana and Jane, the space fluctuations and the trails to the other dinsion are long gone.

His best clue, Psylocke's other body, was kidnapped months ago and she doesn't even know the exact location.

He also didn't have much luck with the Ancient One and his library.

So putting his abilities as a detective to use and so very useful powers to this situation, he finally found it. He researched every disappearance, he used Moody Blues stand power and the All Seeing Eyes of God countless tis to pinpoint the locations, creating a web of the tracks that led to the Mojoworld… Narrowing the area…

And he finally did it.

"I'm a genius." He nods, happy with himself. "Now, we can proceed…"

He first contacted the most interested in this whole thing, Psylocke. Telling her to get ready in an hour.

He also contacted Illyana to pass the ssage to the X-n.

Shego said that she wanted to go to the next "out of the world" mission, Hector warned that it would be boring but she didn't back down so he called her too.

"Should I take Raven?" He considers "This mission will be easy… It's more to show a certain ugliness of reality to the X-n(and lower their faith in the Professor's pacifist ways)… I don't think she needs that. Saeko will also not have fun fighting the Spineless Ones either…"

In the end, he decided to take with him only Shadow, Rover, Groot, and Shego. And Cortana obviously.

Not that he is underestimating the next enemy, he will never underestimate anyone. But he can analyze and recognize that compared with the previous cases, this will be relatively easier.

"Let's aim for that S score." He nods to himself before disappearing.

...

He reappears at the X-Mansion with his group and Psylocke, who is being stared at by Shego like she owes her money.

"Is this leotard really necessary?" Shego asks with a raised eyebrow

"It is this body preference… Believe , I prefer wearing much more layers of clothes." Psylocke answers. Internally, she is still Elizabeth Braddock, a British woman captain of the Royal Guard, not an Asian ninja.

Their last eting left a little of bad blood between them. But Eidolon is keeping an eye open and warns Psylocke to not ss with Shego… She is much stronger now, she only needs a reason to put her in her place.

At the end of the day, Shego is a villain. It's not beneath her to inflict a little pain on people who annoy her, even for petty reasons.

Eidolon goes through all the trouble of knocking on the door of the mansion, as it dictates the protocol.

"Oh, Eidolon. Enter, please. "The one that greeted them is Dr. McCoy, aka the Beast. "The kids are waiting for you."

"Excuse then." The hero says as he enters the house and is guided by the Beast to the living room.

There, he found a peculiar sight.

"This… is more people than I expected." He says slowly, looking at the huge group. Basically, every X-n older than 14 years (with the exception of Illyana) is ready to go.

The hero pauses and holds his chin between his fingers, thinking deeply about sothing… The young people of the X-mansion fidgeting under his gaze

"You know what? You all can go." He eventually shrugs a shoulder and says, to the surprise of everyone.

"Seriously?" Shego turns to him and asked

"Are you sure about it, Eidolon?" Xavier also asks

"The place is not dangerous, but by the little I know, it's big… So I think everyone will have the chance to rescue so people. It can be a good experience." Eidolon says "I will just need to divide it in so groups… But I will do it after we arrive there."

The Professor has his misgivings but the X-n are excited.

"You can also co, Professor. If you want, of course…" Eidolon says calmly "I also warned you guys… It may not be pretty. And it is not a fun trip, act out of line and I will miniaturize you and put you in my pocket." The hero says to all of them

"Can he do that?"

"It sounds a little fun, really…"

So of them whisper, but Eidolon ignores them and makes appear a holo-screen.

"Before we go, allow to pass the info of this mission… This one here is Psylocke." He starts, gesturing to the purple ninja lady. Everyone's attention turns to her, and so boys nod to themselves in appreciation, not that Eidolon can bla them "So days ago she ca to for help. She is not really herself… She switched bodies with another soone, so the one that you are seeing here is not her."

So exclamations of surprise are emitted from the small crowd.

"Now you must be wondering… What does this have anything to do with an interdinsional alien kidnapping people… Well, her body, with the other person inside, was the one kidnapped." After he says that, they understand.

"The other side kidnaps anyone, but it seems they took a liking for people with powers recently… Now let talk about what we are gonna face." He finally turns to the holo-screen, making it change to show a different image from the SCP symbol.

The screen shows so fat humanoid yellow slug-like creatures. Their appearances elicit only so mild reactions from the people around, after all, they are used to strange appearances, so it's not like they will gasp and puke at seeing sothing or soone ugly.

"Those are the Spineless Ones." Eidolon reveals "They live in a dinsion adjacent to ours, and in so way, they are pretty miserable… But that doesn't absolve them from their cris against us." It seems Eidolon has little pity for those people, one would even go as far as to say that he despises them.

He continues "In general, they don't have any exceptional qualities, but the sa can be said to humans, so keep your guard up in case an exceptional individual appears. And talking about exceptional individuals…" The holo-screen changes.

It goes from showing the average Spineless One to showing a specific one, this Spineless One looks more nacing, with a crazy smile and so technological devices attached to his head, they can also see the spider-like chair beneath him, his prosthetic legs supporting his soft body.

"This one is called Mojo… By the way, the place where we are going is called Mojoworld, so you guys can have an idea of who calls the shots there." Eidolon explains

"So he is their king?" Jean asks

"No royalty per se, but he controls the place… You see, a little backstory about this race. Their lives are not that easy… They are called Spineless Ones for a reason, their lower body has zero strength and for a long ti, anything they could do is crawl on the ground with their weak arms. They couldn't do much beyond crawl and survive."

He then points to the image of Mojo in his prosthetic legs "That's why this guy, who is intelligent beyond his peers, has so much power. He created those legs, revolutionizing the world."

"Well, that is a good thing…" Soone says

"Yeah…" Eidolon slowly agrees "If he was not a bad guy. He is the kidnapper."

"I wouldn't have imagined… He has such an innocent smile." Rogue comnts sarcastically, everyone can see Mojo's deranged smile. No one would want to get close to anyone smiling like that, anyone with a smile like that should be put on a list… Every list.

After a little chuckle of agreent, Eidolon continues "Another thing that you all should know is that this world has a strange connection with ours… The inhabitants, the Spineless Ones, received images of our TV directed in their brain."

"What?" Almost everyone says simultaneously

"I'm not sure how it works, I think their brainwaves are compatible and synchronize with our radio waves, but they received images and audios from us directed in their head. In a way, we shaped their entire culture. I guess Mojo got the inspiration for his inventions from us… They admire, fear, and despise us all the sa."

"Despise us? Why?" Kitty asks, confused "We did nothing to them…"

"To paraphrase a book: They are in Hell… looking at Heaven." Eidolon says with a sigh "They crawled through mud and filth while watching us living our perfect lives in TV shows. They started resenting us after envying us for too long."

"So is this guy kidnapping us in a twisted way of getting 'revenge'? His inferiority complex is showing…" Jean says

"Probably yes." Eidolon nods" I also think there are other reasons. I think he controls the others using his inventions and the entertainnt of the shows that he creates with the humans he captures. Panem et circenses…"

"Bread and Circuses…." Ororo shakes her head "He is a tyrant."

"Pretty much… I think that is all. The rest we will discover together." He shows so images he acquired when he scouted "It's a little funny that most of the places are strange versions of the United States. Look, Mojofornia…"

Everyone laughs.

"Imagine a place worse than our California…" Spyke jokes seeing the familiar but still strange landscape.

"So to them, we are only Arica." Dust comnts

"And Bollywood…"

"Well, they know us from movies and TV shows…"

"Now I can't even bla them for hating us."

"ARICAAAH!!"

They all joke in a good-natured way to ease the nerves, they are about to enter enemy territory.

???

The Mojoworld is completely oblivious to what is about to happen.

In the Mojoverse, the base of operations of Mojo, the bigger than average(fat) Spineless One moves frantically around his favorite place… His Command Center.

His robotic legs make tak-tak sounds while he moves around like a hyperactive spider. The whole place is filled with monitors and wires, from top to bottom there is not one place that is not broadcasting a scene from sowhere else.

Mojo moves like a madman, like an addict, from monitor to monitor… Looking at everything with bloodshot eyes. He doesn't want to miss anything. That's why he has hooks pulling his eyelids open, forcing him to always have his eyes open, to never blink.

The majority of those screens broadcast scenes of his shows and programs… Humans and other races in the most diverse situations, all to entertain the masses.

Gone was the era where they only glimpsed at human lives, now they can watch from close. Much closer…

All thanks to him! He is the director of everything and takes a lot of pride in doing so.

So of the screens still show Earth's TV, they capture the transmissions from beyond the dinsional walls… Those images are for Mojo only. He made sure that no one else could see them.

This is modern Earth… This is new content that he will use in a better way. This is an inspiration!

Earth changed! So Mojo decided to adapt too, he will make his own version better and bigger!

His own creation will not lose to the boring original. How can it lose? Life doesn't have a script… It will never be as interesting as what he can do… When he controls everything!!

In one of the screens, a black-clad figure appears… The image is grainy but it is obvious his charisma, his power… Mojo wants this actor too…

He will take him from the competition and use him in a better way.

But he knows that it will not be easy, so Mojo planned for months, and now…

"I'm prepared!" He shouts with great fanfare like a showman, hands to the ceiling, sparks flying from his fingertips.

He is not as oblivious as Eidolon thought.

A.N.: Hello There

Thanks to Marvel Rivals, I pushed forward the developnt of Illyana and Psylocke. If only Marvel could give more influence…

Anyway, a fun thing that I noticed while writing this chapter… Raven's two famous love interest… Beastboy and Damian… The goody and nice guy that adds so fun to her life… And the dark and brooding that combines with her.

Hector is kinda the perfect fusion of the two, lol.

Raven! Accept it! He is your soulmate!
