Chapter 248: 248. To the Null World
"I, THE GRIMM KNIGHT LANCELOT, SHALL DESTROY YOUR BUTTOCKS!!!"
"I, GABRIELLE... QUEEN OF THE DRAGONS... SHALL BRING FORTH MY WRATH UPON YOU!!!"
A giant mystical dragon waves its tail and shows its fan to the Grimm Knight as the Grimm Knight slashes the Dragon's throat.
"RAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA-!!!"
In the real world...
"-aaaaaaaaaaah!!!" Gabrielle plays dead and adorably sticks out her tongue on the couch. Miguel tickles her as she giggles.
She sighs in relief. "Daddy? Do you promise you'll get home early?"
"I promise, sweetie," Miguel smiled sweetly. "I'll get home as quickly as I can... Not even a terrifying title card is gonna stop that from happening-..."
Gabrielle clenches her fists as she rode Raphael's back, who gallops his way in the city of Earth Grimm Burnham with Iggy.
"Come on, Kuya!" yelled Gabrielle. "Uncle Lord must be in some cafe like usual!"
Raphael spoke in sign language. "You're alright there, Gabe?"
"I'm scared..." Gabrielle hugged Raphael's back. "That Dad won't come home... Or worse... we're the ones who get hurt... Even Mama..."
"Tch-..." said Iggy. Iggy barks at the pair.
"What'd he say?" asked Gabrielle.
Raphael does sign language. "He says that you shouldn't be such a baby all the time."
"Hey! Iggy! That was uncalled for!" yelled Gabrielle. "I'm just scared! What if Mama and Daddy will get hurt?"
Iggy barks.
"He says that they always get hurt," said Raphael in sign language.
"Yeah... But that doesn't mean that Daddy doesn't need any help!" yelled Gabrielle.
"We'll totally get grounded when they found out, won't we?" asked Raphael.
Iggy nods.
"To Uncle Lord!" said Gabrielle, pointing forward.
Raphael looked around the city as creatures from different nations walked around the streets. Fish from Bikini Bottom, Cartoon Characters from Elmore, Different Creatures from Ooo and Lump Space, Mewmen, Gems, Cryptids, Grimms, and Humans walk around the town.
He spots a cafe where a familiar face drank coffee.
"Uncle Lord!"
Lord's eyes widen. "Wha? Huh? Oh! Gabrielle! Heya kiddos! To what do I owe the pleasure?"
"Daddy needs your help!" smiled Gabrielle.
"Really? Wait... Miguel actually said he needed my help?" asked Lord.
"Yeah!" giggled Gabrielle.
"Whoa... I should thank him-!!!"
"WAIT!!!" Raphael said in sign language.
Iggy barks violently.
"WHOA WHOA WHOA!!!" yelled Gabrielle. "Daddy's... off-world."
"Really? How do I know you're not manipulating me?" asked Lord.
"Because I'm cute!" Gabrielle blushed and smiled sweetly.
Lord brushes his chin. "Welp! That's true! Alright! What does he need me for?"
"Oh! To assemble the Stardust Crusaders, Weeb Town, The Jazz Fusion, and let them join together with some comic book Superheroes and variants from an alternate Universes!" laughed Gabrielle.
"Like who?" asked Lord.
"Deadpool," said Raphael.
"Say no more," Lord stood up. "Let's go get 'em!Now...Where do I assemble the army and where's Deadpool?"
"Psst... Where did Dad tell Mom it was?" whispered Gabrielle.
"The Purple Dimension.."
"The Purple Dimension!"
Lord calls Rick with his watch.
*BURP* "What?" asked Rick.
"Get me Weeb Town."
Meanwhile...
"We're going to an empty planet in a space where a Universe used to be?" asked Bruce.
"Yes. It's the only planet in any of the four quadrants of the destroyed Universe. It's called a Null World," replied Miguel. "It used to be a place where the original Jotaro Kujo lived but was killed by Stefan's original self, Enrico Pucci before he was reborn into countless infinite selves in each of the 11 dimensions.Stefan will be crossing between Purple Dimensions. There's a halt in the Purple Dimension surrounding the Prime Earths and he'll try to cross it to enter our world since Jotaro's world is already destroyed."
"What if we die there?" asked Peter.
"We die permanently..." said Miguel.
"Peter..." said Bruce. "I want you to stay behind."
"No... Mr. Wayne, I'm going," replied Peter.
"I can't risk you dying out there. I made a promise to a dead man that you won't get hurt."
"But, Mr. Wayne... Please! I need... I need to do this... for Mr. Stark... I need... I need to grow up..."
Bruce stares at Peter for a long moment.
Bruce sighs. "Fine..."
"Wait... seriously?" asked Frank.
"Yeah... seriously!? 'Cuz Mr. Stark is way more paranoid-..."
"Kid needs to learn for himself," said Bruce.
"Bruce..." said Barry. "He's just a kid."
"I know..." said Bruce.
"Bruce..." said Clark. "Why would you-?"
"Because Peter Parker deserves to return Tony's favor," said Bruce. "Like how I need to return my kids' favor... the favor of everyone I've ever loved... to help me... I owe them. Peter owes Tony. Everyone owes something to their families... Even if it is just love that is the size of a grain of sand... It's not the family we deserve."
"It's the family we needed," sighed Frank and Clark.
Everyone stands up from their seats each time they spoke...
"I'll stay," said Diana. "I'll lead an army that will hopefully work together..."
"Me, too," said Clark. "You'll need a man of steel, after all."
"I wanna fight, too," said Quill. "We'll stay in the Purple Dimension to defend your world."
"I'll stay," Barry nods. "For Iris... and everyone I've ever loved..."
"I'll stay," said Wade. "For Harley..."
"I'll stay," said Frank. "I'll blow holes in that fucking asshole."
"Who's going with me?" asked Miguel.
"Wait... But... Mr. Reaper..." Prince Josuke gets worried.
"I started this, I'm ending it... I deserve to be in the front line..."
"I'll go," said Prince Josuke. "Since you're going, too."
"Me," said Bruce. "I'll go and kill Stefan. I don't care about rules anymore. I just want to kill him."
"I'm going, too," said Peter. "Mr. Wayne's going."
"I'll go," said Reigen. "The horrors you'll is when you'd likely need someone like me!"
"I'll go!" laughed Goku. "I don't know where we're going, though! But wherever I go is always a good fight!"
"Sure," said Saitama. "Maybe I'll find a really good fighter there as Goku said."
"I'll go!" smiled Shigeo.
"Fuck it... Life's pointless," said Dark. "I was painted as a bad guy even after I saved the world... Who the fuck cares...?"
"I'll go since Dark is going!" laughed Hercules.
"I'll-!" smiled Yuki.
"No, you're staying," said Dark.
"You can't tell me what I do since I'm a woman!"
"I can... since you're a woman-child."
"Aw..."
"I'm going," said Jotaro.
"Me, too!" giggled Irene.
"No. Irene... You'll have to stay here," said Jotaro.
"Aw!"
"I'm going... to bring back my lost familia," said Giorno. "My true familia..."
"If Jotaro and Giorno are going, I'm going," said Duwang Josuke.
"Weird that we're all standing in a circle," said Prince Josuke.
They are revealed to be in a park where everyone is staring at them.
"Hey, look! It's Black Panther!" yelled a kid.
"I'm Bat-!"
The kid walks away.
"Fuck it."
*ring ring*
Diana checks her phone.
"Huh..." said Diana. "Looks like I have a meeting, later..."
"With who?" asked Miguel.
"Rick Sanchez."
"Oh. He's cool," said Miguel. "Do go on."
"You're not asking what it's about?" asked Prince Josuke.
"It's Rick!" shrugged Miguel. "He's in my debt!"
"Right..." nodded Prince Josuke.
Later...
Diana checks her phone as she walked into the cafe.
Lord Marvel lands before Diana.
"Hello, J'Obladi J'Oblada," said Diana. "As a friend of yours told me... I take it that you're a friend of Miguel's who offered to help us."
"Yes," said Lord. "Miguel sent his kids to tell me that you needed an army."
"Yes, we do."
"Sent his kids?" asked Quill.
"I can give one to you..." said Lord.
"Who are they?" asked Diana.
"The weirdest shit you'll ever see..." smiled Lord.
Meanwhile...
Miguel prepares a portal to the Null World in his Reapercave, creating a triangular portal.
"This portal..." said Bruce. "It has the runes I've read in Battleworld."
"Rune of David," replied Miguel. "It can bring you between worlds, Bruce... Ancient Israelites and some dudes called Rock Humans used it to travel worlds."
"Rock Humans? Like Cryptids and Grimms?"
"Cryptids were made by Fortisites. Grimms were made by God. According to a friend of mine, Nick, Rock Humans are the result of a weird kind of Gems called Dark Gems genetically altering-..."
"Hey! Mr. Wayne!" laughed Peter. "I found that part Mr. Reaper needed!"
"So... God is real?" asked Frank, leaning on the wall with crossed arms and legs.
"Yep," said Miguel, adjusting a nut with a wrench. "All-knowing but not that all-good. At least according to what I've studied."
Frank scoffs. "If Matt were here, he'd get a real kick out of this."
Bruce recreates the Mecha Suit he used to defeat Stefan.
"Wait... What is that stuff on that robot's knuckles?" asked Prince Josuke.
"They're Kryptonite Brass Knuckles," said Bruce. "It releases un-ionized particles that penetrate the skin of beings like Kryptonians and Fortisites. Saiyans, meanwhile, gained immunity to this because they grew under a yellow sun. They could be hurt by a new material I've discovered that I surely want to use against Darkseid, in case another version of him attacks us..."
"I thought there was only one Darkseid..." said Peter.
"Darkseid has multiple sentient Avatars across the Multiverse. We just fought one powerful version of him," said Bruce. "There are also multiple Thors, Thanoses, Clarks, and Dianas... Each with an entity that makes all of those variants gods."
"The Null World..." said Jotaro. "We die there... There's no going back?"
"Well, of course, Dark One," said Vegeta. "I am well aware of the rules. We die there, we die forever. No Dragon Balls can bring us back."
"Can Gold Experience Requiem survive?" asked Giorno.
"Yes," said Miguel. "You'll survive because fate is an occurrence in every world: Inside or outside of it."
"Can I control Go Beyond outside the Universe?" said Gappy Josuke.
"Can you control it here?" asked Miguel.
"No."
"Then, no. Wait... actually... probably. Counting the fact that you'd be outside the Universe."
"I'm honestly kinda scared..." Duwang Josuke said, trembling.
"Me and you both," said Bruce.
"Thanks, man! I really thought that-!Why did you just patronize me?"
"I don't fear patronizing a kid. I'm the man without fear."
"Pfft... No, you're not," scoffed Frank.
"Tch-..."
"Well!" laughed Goku. "I'm ready to take these Prime Steaks!"
"No, Goku," said Saitama. "He said Prime Arks."
"Aw, man! Religion!?" asked Goku.
"Right!?" asked Vegeta. "You and me Kakarot! We will bring down this foolish establishment God made where we can't eat his object of covenant!"
"Hey, guys? How do we get there?" asked Mob.
"The portal I'm building," said Miguel. "We'll get there in a jiffy..."
The portal then opens up as he plugs it in. He sees an endless horizon of space before him as the wind flows his trench coat backward. His heart beats faster as his fingers trembled and he began to shudder. "Fuck..."
"RON-KAKAKAKA-!!!"
Miguel's nose began to bleed.
"Hey..." said Jotaro, grabbing his shoulder.
Miguel gasps in fear.
"You felt that, didn't you? Drowning? Being pulled down by something grabbing your leg... just when you went up to the surface?"
"Y-Yeah..." Miguel's lips trembled as he desperately gasped for breath.
"It's okay," said Jotaro. "I've had visions, too, from a past life... His name was Enrico-..."
"I'll be fine," said Miguel, as his hands shuddered.
Bruce squints his eyes, staring at Miguel. "You sure you're up for this?"
"Yeah..." Miguel sighed.
Miguel woges in fear and hissed as he ticked his wing.
"Huh..." said Bruce.
"JESUS!!!" yelled Frank, as he pointed his gun at Miguel.
"OH, DEAR GOD!!!" yelled Vegeta. "THE FUCK IS THAT!? KILL IT!!!"
*BANG*
Miguel's Star Platinum catches the bullet.
"It's me, you idiots! I just freaked out and woged!" Miguel woges back to normal.
"We thought you were lying because... Christ! ...were you ugly in that form!" yelled Vegeta.
"Yeah... fuck off! You have a weird Ape Form I've read about in the diaries!"
"At least it's big and it has a use! What's the use of your transformation, huh!? Symbolism!?"
"At least I don't yell every time I have to transform into a stronger state of self!"
"Oh, that is it! I dare you to defeat me!"
"ORA!!!"
*SPLAT*
Vegeta drops to the ground with a broken nose.
"I didn't even... see... airplanes... shooting stars..." Vegeta whispered on the ground, unconscious.
"He'll wake up in a minute," said Miguel.
"I wanna deck Stefan in the schnozz!" smiled Goku.
"Me, too," said Miguel. "Believe me... I wanna deck the halls in that boughs of holly of his... Sadly, we have to keep far away from him. We're only there to take his Arks as his army will invade Earth, but he will stay behind. We should get there undetected with Rick's Red Portal Gun..." Miguel holds up a portal gun with red portal fluid."Stay on the central finite curve, Miguel..." he whispered to himself.
*PEW*
*vrung*
A red portal opens as Miguel and the entire group enters it. They see the desolated Earth and step into it.
"Holy shit," said Peter. "What the hell happened here?"
"Genocided by a fatalist prick," said Miguel. "Stefan's Prime self... Enrico Pucci. Just because 'it was meant to happen.' I say... I can change it..."
An empty sky with an empty planet floating in the nothingness of black space with a single light source, the last star.
"Jesus Christ," said Bruce.
"I really hope that he's on our side right now," said Frank.
