"Okay, it's brainstorming time. The stone demands a sacrifice." He called the team closer to himself.
"YOU! YOU KILLED HER FOR NOTHING?" the male alien was still there, shouting at Hector. He even launched himself towards him and punched his chest, only to break his fingers.
Hector silently, but coldly glanced at him, "No, she sacrificed herself so that I might 'consider' letting you go. I have considered not letting you go. Go and meet your wife in hell."
He lifted the man by his skull as if he were a basketball and threw him away like garbage. *THUD* The body turned into a heap of dead meat.
"HOW CAN YOU? You killed him!" Diana protested.
~Ah, I forgot she's from DC. Everyone is an entitled ass there.~
"Of course I killed him. You wanted me to let a child enslaver go? No, thank you," Hector replied. He would never act softly when it came to his ideology. Not even for a hot goddess.
"But you don't have the authority to judge who dies and lives," she argued.
Moony burst into laughter at that, "Wowowowo..."
Hector, too, "Haha, actually, I do have that authority. I will tell you how later. For now, I have work to do. And lady, I do not kill innocent folks. I kill enemies who are soldiers or criminals. Unlike your Universe. Can you tell me how many died in Zod's attack? Tens of thousands, right? How many died in stopping Lex? Or Darkseid? Do you get me?
"Collateral damage is everywhere, while my track record is great. Ask Jean,"
Jean nodded heavily, "Yes, Grandpa's great. He stopped genocides, and changed the world for the better. He's been given 3 Nobel Peace Prizes already. Even Professor Moony got one."
"Yes, now calm down. You will understand later. I'm supposed to kill folks like them. Now, brainstorm. How do I get the stone without sacrificing Moony?"
"WOWE?" Moony repeated his name in dog language. He did not know that his ass was on the line for that stupid stone.
"Does someone really need to die?" Adam wondered.
Just then, Hector had an idea, "YES! From what I know, soul stone is supposed to be sentient. So it most likely doesn't want sacrifice, but rather a person to be mentally prepared to make a sacrifice."
*WOOSH*
He ran faster than Moony could see and grabbed him from his belly, lifting him in the air. Moony started to fight his hold, ~NOOOO... DADDY! I DON'T WANNA DIE!~
*KNOCK*
Hector silenced him down, "Fool, I'm not killing you. Just go with the flow,"
He walked towards the edge of the cliff and looked down. There was a stone stage on the bottom, and god knows who made it for what. But he roared at it, "Watch me, Soul Stone. Cut the crap and surrender yourself to me, or I will rip apart this planet if that's what it takes,"
And then he jumped, Moony still in his arms.
"GRANDPA!" Jean, Yelena, and shockingly even Natasha ran to the edge in worry. Adam was calm; he had trust in his boss. Diana didn't know him or felt attached to him enough to care. Not after he just killed someone so blithely.
"IT'S OKayyyyyy..." Hector's diminishing voice echoed as he fell.
It was a pretty deep cliff. Moony and Hector were even talking the whole way, although the good boy was terrified due to what he had heard before.
*BOOM*
Hector contacted the stone slab with full force. His body already weighed hundreds of kilos due to his adamantium update to the bones. Having Moony in arms made it heavier. The force at which he fell was like an orbital bombardment.
The cracks spread in a radius like cobwebs, releasing a cloud of dust from the gaps. Sadly, for the alien husband and wife, their bodies turned into meat pastes.
He put Moony on the ground with a thud as well, and that seemed to have done the deed, as the stone slab completely shattered, revealing there was nothing below it other than a deep dark fall.
"HAHA... So there you are, stone." Hector bellowed in laughter.
His shiny white beard fluttered upwards, and his coat spread around like a parachute. It was a good multi-kilometre deep fall. Unknown how deep it would go.
"Ah! There it is." he saw a shining yellow light straight below him. However, as he moved closer, he felt some sort of an attack on him. The stone was supposedly being hostile to him.
Though the attack only made Hector laugh out loud, "Bwahaha... foolish stone, you dare mess with Hell's Inquisitor? My soul is immortal."
"GRRR... WUF!" Moony added his own insults.
*BOOM*
Once again, Hector touched the ground, though he made a bigger circle of destruction this time. The stone illuminated the place. It was a simple small cave, enclosed from all sides.
Sitting at the centre, the shiny, juicy soul stone remained on a protruding platform. He walked towards it without any reservations. "You're mine now. No matter how much you fight."
He picked it in like he was pinching something. "So small, yet this little shit has so much power."
~DAD, can I lick it?~ Moony asked him.
"Sure,"
*Lick*
ಠ▃ಠ
"UWAAAA..."
*Sigh* He patted Moony's back, "There you go vomiting. Is it that bad? Let me try too."
*Lick*
ಠ▃ಠ
"UWAAAA... Ugh... my god, who knew infinity stones are this bad." Hector, too, vomited beside Moony. Perhaps, they were the first people to vomit on this planet, let alone in the home of the soul stone. They absolutely tainted it.
The Soul Stone, however, understood what Hector was talking about. It was angered at being insulted and tried to attack Hector even more vigorously. Yet, both just kept vomiting, ignoring its soul powers.
The Soul Gem was sentient; it had a desire to collect souls, and the two mad lads just killed its appetite.
*WOOSH*
"Hell's Inquisitor? I want answers. Who are you?"
Just then, Wonder Woman flew down and gently landed. Her lasso was radiating beautiful light, making her face and body shine. When Hector cleaned his mouth and looked back, he felt mesmerised. Heck, Moony was awestruck too.
But Diana's face was completely serious. Hence, Hector took a serious tone as well. He simply put the stone in his coat's inner pocket and helped Moony by patting his back. Dogs take longer to vomit than humans.
"It's what it says. My official identification as a cosmic entity is Hell's Inquisitor," he replied.
She suddenly moved her hand and put the ring that hung around her neck as a locket onto her finger. Then a green light came out of it, taking the shape of two chairs.
Hector blurted in amazement, "You got the Lantern's ring too, amazing."
He wondered why Wonder Woman had all these things. He even noticed Batman's belt on her waist, and the red cape she had was most likely Superman's.
Wonder Woman took a stricter stance at this, narrowing her gaze, "How do you know all this? You mentioned Zod and Darkseid before. Who... or should I ask... what are you? A demon from hell?"
But then she glanced at Moony, not sure if he was really from hell. How can someone so cute be from there?
Sighing, he took the remaining seat, "Fine. It's time for your crash course on the levels of universes."
"I am not from this Universe. Not even from this Multiverse. I am like you, from outside of this Multiverse. However, I am not like you either, who comes from just another Universe's infinite iterations. I am an Omniversal being. Here, let me show you a chart."
Hector brought out a simple thing he created long ago to teach people, "See this, at the bottom is a Universe. Then there is the Multiverse. Until now, they all had walls separating them. But, next comes the Omniverse, a giant container in which everything you can imagine exists. Now, outside is the reality of the true god—the one who runs everything as the administrator. I just call him old man.
"No matter which Multiverse you are from, the god above all remains the same."
Wonder Woman looked at the chart with focus and listened sharply. "You mean to say that Yahweh and others are not the topmost people?"
"Oh, you mean the Presence? No, he's not. Like in this Universe, Yahweh is just another Skyfather, the same as Odin and Zeus. The true god is much above them, as there is only one for the entire Omniverse."
"Then what are you?" She asked him.
"WOOOWOO!" Moony barked suddenly, pushing Hector's lap with his paw.
Sighing, he took out the shiny soul stone and gave it to him, "Fine, you can play with the stone, but don't lick it again."
Moony nodded responsibly and started playing catch with it. The stone was not happy. It couldn't even harm Wonder Woman for some reason. It was a day full of shame.
He focused back on the damsel in distress, "Simple. Each Universe has its own hell and heaven. Likewise, each Multiverse has its own hell and heaven. Like that, the Omniverse has its ultimate Hell and Heaven. I am the third in command of the Omniversal Hell. My job is to exorcise multiversal and Omniversal dark beings. Hence, Hell's Inquisitor.
"What you see right now is merely a constructed vessel for my soul. Because my soul is too powerful to even step foot in any universe without breaking it apart. I am limited by this human body. Otherwise, I am basically god. I'm more of a grey character with a good heart rather than my bosses, Satan and that masked maniac ruler of hell. But, they are also doing their job.
"The demons you know are more like evil beings who interfere with the mortal world. We, the real deal, don't do that. We do our jobs, play in hell like normal beings, heck, demons in hell even have families."
"Then why are you here?" Another question arose in her mind.
He sighed and relaxed back, "Haha, that's the funny part. I was bored with my job, so Satan sent me here to relax. But seeing the misery, I decided to change some things for the good... my way."
This brought hope to her heart, "Then, can you send me back to my home universe? It should be easy for you?"
"Ugh... that... I'm not sure about that."
"Why?"
