---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
My form started top phase out of the visual spectrum as my existence was spread over the UNSC's entire timeline and parallel timelines. Then with a crisp pop I emerged within the headquarters of the Military command of the United Colonies of Earth. Hundreds of different technicians worked away on their consoles as generals and other high level government officials discussed topics in relation to the stability of outer colonies.
Conversations continued for a small period as they eventually turned in my direction and looked shocked. All parallel timelines followed the same path, all had the same reaction... as each version of me was reacting in kind to the various minor variations. Some generals swore whilst the same in another version were utterly cold and silent. Variations where there was no such thing as the UCE had no-one to speak to so I removed my communication with that timeline.
Many soldiers started to pour out from the various corners of the room, a red light bleating above as the sounds of guns being readied resounded. With my level of power it was like a kid pointing a flashlight at a threat thinking it will help. Waving my hand I unmade all of the firearms, their previously whole guns suddenly plopping into hundreds of individual pieces. The Generals drew their pistols and started firing, only to find that the bullets they fired were turned into bubbles.
'Heh, now I understand why Thanos smiled at seeing that happen with Quill.'
"Who are you!?"
"Get me Master Chief and Doctor Halsey."
I made my tone cold as they writhed under the unexpected situation the power I held. Many soldiers were looking at me in trepidation as my display left them without any form of protection. The parallels followed a similar path as my powers made sure there was no variation that got too out of hand. One was even the use of the Halo in an attempt to kill me, a foolish idea... I squashed that possibility immediately.
"What do you want with them?"
They had already sent some of their staff off to get who I asked for, they were now trying to ask questions so they could get greater perspective on what my goals are. It didn't matter if they knew or not, so I answered him..
"I am going to explain what I am doing to those that have the chance to understand. Then, they will explain to you in simpler terms."
They fidgeted and seemed to grow concerned as the fetching of the two requested individuals was taking some time. The worry was soon quenched however as a rather good looking Dr Halsey and the indomitable Master Chief stepped through the same door escorted by four soldiers who still held their weapons. Entering into the room Chief immediately scanned it for threats and dangers, identifying me immediately as his hand tensed towards his gun only to stop. I had aided this version of the UNSC in protecting Earth and stopping the war. The Veritas Imperium had done immeasurable favours for this universe and my soldier's existence in one timeline made them appear in multiple different parallels at the same time... It was hard to fully explain.
"Emelia?! It that you?"
Halsey walked over calmly, with the confidence of a civilian in an unknown situation. She wore a rather gentle smile as her platinum blond hair blew with the exhales of the ventilation systems in the room. John-117 stepped up behind her with his helmet affixed completely, Cortana no doubt speaking to him.
"Haha, yes Halsey. Sorry about the change of appearance."
"Ah, do not worry about it too much, you still look mostly like yourself... Just wasn't expecting you'd take my hair colour."
"Wasn't intentional, haha."
"Well, i'll have to ask how that happened at some point. What can we do for you?"
"Ah, that, yes... I have come to make this entire multiverse conjoin with another. Specifically, my current multiverse where my Imperium exists."
Her expressions cooled down as her brain sped through the possible issues, the consequences, the possible reasoning behind it... Then her eyes snapped up onto mine, her intelligence no doubt leading her towards the inevitable answer.
"We are becoming a part of your empire, aren't we?"
The rest of the people in the room turned even more quiet than before, their expressions turning to shock, surprise and anger. Many of the officials of the UEC looked livid, their power coming into question, the suggestion of this making idiocy rush to their heads. Fortunately for them Halsey was the one speaking at this current moment otherwise their leadership would have been culled somewhat.
"Yes, that is my intention."
"Why?"
"Because I have extended multiple hands to you and your people and you have not been willing to work with me. Stubbornness within your leadership has lead to me having to do this instead. My conflict with greater entities needs allies and support but you did not reciprocate our efforts... Thus I am left with only one option, conquering."
"Hmm. I have been telling them that they needed to reach out to you more... Fucking idiots! Huu, for my part, I submit myself to the Imperium's rule. Along with me I order all Spartan Units to follow."
"WHAT!? Halsey, you have no authority to make such an order!"
One of the generals yelled out at her, veins showing in his neck as his blood pressure rose. I could see and feel the pumping of his heart increase as the adrenaline within his system spiked, he was ready to fight. It was at this moment that John-117 stepped forwards and pulled out his firearm, the elegant sleek frame pointing in the direction of the general as a muffled voice called out within his helmet. Yeah, challenging Halsey who was the singular most important scientist you had in front of the man that almost treated her like a mother sometimes... Not a bright idea.
"M-master chief! I order you to lower your arms!"
The muffled voice finished and soon gained clarity.
"I don't follow your orders... Your actions are in the benefit of yourselves, not the people of the UEC."
*Clap* , *Clap* , *Clap*
Everyone turned to face me, most of the generals and officials wide eyed as I simply clapped at their shenanigans. Halsey sighed and patted Master Chief on the shoulder, causing him to lower his weapon.
"This was a good play... But currently the other 1 million parallel versions of yourselves have accepted the deal. You are the only ones left. Perhaps you are the most privileged and comfortable?"
Silence.
"It's fine. Halsey, you are now the governor of this the colonies and this Earth until you can find a good replacement. Generals, sorry for this..."
With my final clap their bodies and the bodies of every official that I knew would decline was jettisoned into the void, their souls plundered by me as it served to further my powers just that little bit more. I was over playing friendly with detractors who were stubborn and suicidal because of their own greed or need for power. With the majority of the Government cleaned out within each parallel there was now only the future rule of the Veritas Imperium.
"I don't want to govern... That's way outside of my field of expertise..."
"Then I will give the governance to my daughter. That's fine."
"Sure! Anyway, does this mean that I can study your technology now that we are a part of the Imperium?"
"Hahaha, i knew that was where your interests lay. I have someone to introduce you to in our combined multiverse, once I am done."
"Sounds fun."
John stepped up next, his voice conveying through his helmet.
"What about me and the Spartans?"
"Well, you can become citizens and stop fighting, or, you can join the Military as a special Unit. You would be given the best equipment that we can give you... You'd need to train on this equipment but that could easily be done. Hell, I'll even give you Alpha Team to train with."
"Alpha Team?"
"The Black Ops of our Imperium. The best of the best."
"Genetically modified?"
"All humans are evolved in our Imperium. They are called High Humans and they not only have superhuman physical traits but they are all superbly efficient at skills and magics."
"Magic???"
"Haha, you'll have fun, as soon as you get to the new Multiverse and become a part of the Veritas Imperium proper you will receive the evolution too."
"Now, sorry to cut this short but I have a multiverse to move and combine, so... See yah soon!"
...
Reality warped around me as I appeared i the void outside of the Halo Multiverse. Universes in the trillions glimmered and sparkled as the disk of star matter and pure creation energy swirled in circular patterns that would trump the most beautiful of celestial explosions or implosions.
Bringing my hands forth I called upon the powers of my newly gained abilities... First Magic, Kaleidoscope, Magic Blue and Arc of Embodiment... All were grasped onto by me as I pushed my eyes to see beyond spatial limitations and temporal fluctuations. All the way to the multiverse that Terra and the Veritas Imperium resided. There was no light around me until my hands started to generate cerulean light, the photons so intense that it trumped any stars and could only be fought by the creation of a multiverse. A big bang so to speak.
"Let there be light..."
A truly enormous drain on energy ensued as the Multiverse before me was bathed in the newly generated light from my abilities, the space around it collapsing in onto it and snapping it away from where it currently sat. Propelled towards the Star Wars Multiverse I started to control it's trajectory, slowing it in pivotal moments as I began to create a bridge between the two Multiverses that spanned an entire one hundred Universes in size. Sound didn't exist out here in the nothingness, but the spectacle was divine. Two Multiverses in the threat of colliding and destroying one another were made to hum in tune and begin a dance.
Both Multiverses were now weaving around one another as the two combined into a greater whole, the bridge between the two cemented by the one hundred newly created Universes that were forged by my magic. Worlds of an entirely new splendour emerged, asteroids smacked into moons as stars combusted and formed in quick succession. Creation of entire swathes of Universes completed in one snap of my fingers.
In an undecipherable span of non-time, I watched the entirety of my new creation spinning and twinkling amidst the chaotic tides of nothingness. My time had come, my time to show Existence that he deserves nothing. Just like us little 'ants', he deserved nothing and thus he will lose everything. I will be the one to do this!

'... Let my plans come to fruition... I am not hiding my moves anymore, Existence!'
I clapped my hands once again and teleported into my newly formed multiverse, my third mission soon to be complete as I did something that would forever change the power scale of the force within Star Wars.
'It's time to become the Force itself.'
