Marvel: Upgrading Death

Chapter 134 134 - Nerds Assembled, Celestial Tracker, Dino Corp On Top & Destroying Ego III

####

Dinosia,

Somehow, Marshall's personal office had deteriorated even further. The table was now missing, just two folding lawn chairs were left.

"As far as I know, this research resulted in nothing. It was headed by Hydra's cells and the Soviets."

Marshall lazily stared at Ronald Reagan as he poked his ear to remove the water after his dip in the pool. "Shit, I'm stunned they yanked my hair from that fucking mammoth pen. Those furballs are drowning in the stuff. Doubt it's mine though. I don't shed or shit or piss... wait..."

Marshall sat up straight, a light bulb lighting up. "Holy shit! I don't shit and piss… I didn't even realise. I don't remember when I did it last… Marty!"

He walked over to the window and shouted at Marty, far in the distant grounds, playing with Kael.

"Marty! You ever seen me take a shit?"

"Gruff!"

"Can't recall, eh? Fuck, I never caught that." He muttered and turned back to look at Ronald. "Well, there you go. Those octopus suckers failed because they had no DNA of mine. Go home now, I'm busy."

"..."

Ronald Reagan was smart. He knew when to leave. He just thanked him and walked out, not pushing his luck.

Just as Ronald left, Marshall watched two nerds, Pym and Stark, walk in, their eyes sunken and dark circles making them seem like pandas. In Howard's hand was a metal suitcase.

"Is this what I think it is?" Marshall rubbed his hands in excitement. "My little Celestial Finder?"

"No," Howard said quickly, cutting things off before anyone got too excited. "But this is still a big step forward. It's just a prototype for now. We've located the source of that seed. Bring it back to us, and we should be able to build the real Celestial Finder."

"That's still pretty juicy!" Marshall got closer, "Where's the fucker hiding?"

Hank walked forward, taking the suitcase and opening it. Inside it was a large gadget. It was bright blue in color, had no buttons, just a brick-like thing with a touch-screen covering it.

"We asked around to figure out what a Celestial actually is, and Lady Hela gave us some real answers. Turns out these Celestials left their mark on just about everything in the universe. Their traces are all over the place. We just had to find a way to pick up on them. The seed helped a bit, but not enough. Its source is somewhere in the Andromeda Galaxy. Dino Corp managed to narrow it down to a specific planet."

Clap!

Marshall was ready to go. "Boys, fucking stellar! If you had pussies and a hot face, I would have slobbered all over you. Now spit the location, I'll drag that bastard back. Besides, he dared jizz on my planet!"

"..."

The two nerds frowned, as if disgusted, and activated the scanner and showed Marshall the location.

"No idea," Marshall muttered and made a portal. "But Dino Corp does."

Ego,

Ego was nearly as old as the Universe itself. He was a curious being, and he wanted to find meaning in his life. He was rather ambitious and decided to achieve his desire; he needed to remake the universe via an extinction-level event.

Now, Ego liked to call himself a Celestial. Many others called him the same. But Ego knew that he wasn't really a Celestial. Not even close. But he wanted to be as powerful as they are as soon as possible. And this plan to remake the universe would help.

Sadly, he needed another being like himself to finish this plan. And of all the places he could go to find a worthy offspring, he went to the planet owned by the most insane being in the universe. The one to whom the Living Tribunal yielded, for there was simply nothing else that could be done.

A being that couldn't be killed. A being that couldn't be reasoned with.

And now, Ego watched as the being appeared on the surface of his body, which was the planet itself. The man appeared from a portal, and he knew instantly that this was a matter of concern. He sensed a might as primordial as true Celestials from this creature.

"Damn right! I smell the bastard all over this rock."

Ego listened to the man speak to himself as if there were multiple of them. The more he listened, the more he feared. The creature knew of him, and the Celestials, and… he was hunting the Celestials.

"Sweet Marty's balls! The whole planet's a Celestial's fart."

"..."

Ego couldn't sweat, but he would have if he could. He hoped to remain dormant and hide himself. But the secret was already out. The planet was him.

"Where're you hiding?"

Boom!

Ego watched the insane being punch the surface of the planet, him, and make craters deep enough to destroy ecosystems.

Boom!

"The damn core? That's where you're at?"

Ego watched in horror as cosmic flames erupted from the man's body and started wrapping the entire planet, burning everything on the surface. Then he watched clouds gather and thunder fall, then strange tentacles erupt from his back and smash into the ground, causing even larger craters, kilometers wide and deep.

Then blue energy beams shot through the man's eyes, creating a hole in the ground. And finally, he felt it, a red beam so primordial. It was older than Celestials; he could sense it. When that beam erupted from the man's hands, he felt it in his brain.

The beam formed a straight tunnel down to the core of the planet, which was a massive cavernous area where his brain was hidden, his true self. There was nothing he could do. The man smashed through the rocks, through the traps, and as if he could sense his brain, approached.

Boom!

Fire burned and melted everything.

Tentacles destroyed all structures. The planet had started to collapse into itself.

"Found you!"

Ego never got the chance. Before he knew it, the man was standing right in front of his living brain, the true core of his being. He waited for the man to destroy it, but…

"You're coming with me."

Death… was a mercy he didn't know he longed for.

Dinosia,

The nerds were happy, and Marshall was just as happy. He had placed the massive brain inside a protected, enchanted, and magically reinforced glass chamber in his sacred island nation. His job was done, but he wasn't done with it.

He probed the brain with his abilities and talked to this being. It was called Ego, and he got to learn much from it. About its origin, and its dreams, and how shitty it was as a father, and how dumb it was for even thinking he was closer to a Celestial than a fucking mortal.

Well, it was now a prisoner for Marshall to find the Celestials. Still, he had one more thing to do. He made sure the sanitised, protected chamber was empty first. The entire chamber was white, from the ceiling to the ground, with Ego's brain sitting in the middle in a special glass chamber filled with liquid.

After that, Marshall made a portal, walked into it, and returned with Meredith Quill. Healthy, alive, dressed in a simple knee-length summer dress, her long blonde hair loose and pretty. She came alone, not wanting her son to find out anything.

"Meredith?" Ego's brain showed activity, his voice echoed, and his humanoid body's shape appeared inside the glass chamber, made of electric currents.

Meredith walked closer to the glass chamber, her eyes watery. "I-Is that you?"

"Bah! Quit your goddamn blubbering," Marshall barked, arms crossed as he glared. "Tell her the truth, wanna-be Celestial Hitler. You put cancer in her head to kill her. You planned to destroy the universe and use Peter to do it. You roam worlds breeding stray women for mini yous, tell her."

Meredith Quill frowned, her big grey eyes dripping tears. "Is that the truth?"

There was silence before Ego's voice cracked again. "I loved you too much. I feared… I feared my feelings would lead me astray from my goals. I was to conquer the universe and…"

"So you decided to kill her. Shit, that's true love if Mephisto puked it onto the page," Marshall scoffed from the side.

"Forgive me, Meredith. I had to forget you," Ego added.

Meredith was bawling by then, her light eye makeup ruined in long dark stains on her cheek. She combed her fingers through her hair, making a mess out of it.

"Do you…" She voiced, only stutters. "Do you still… love me? Us?"

"I do! I have never felt the way I felt for you," Ego confessed. "That is why I—"

But before Ego could finish speaking, Meredith turned around and walked over to Marshall, her simple sandals clapping on the floor. She was a tall, slender woman, and with absolute ease, her tear-streaked, pretty face rose and…

Meredith kissed Marshall on the lips. It was intense, rough, with a motive behind. It was dirty, and it was made to be dirty to watch.
