*Supes_POV*
I started pummeling at a rapid rate on the creature's head. It wreathes painfully on the ground still shrieking and tries to flings its claws and tentacles at me in an effort to stop my attack.
But it's attacks are too slow for me and her body is too large, which resulted in me just avoid her attacks and keep the smackdown going.
Suddenly I find a rhythm and increase my speed even more. With her every shriek and with my every punch, I got even more angrier, I had a craving to see more blood, to hear more of its pained cries, it was as if I wanted to destroy this creature completely.
My eyes started going hot, and suddenly all I could see was red. Seeing that red world, I stop abruptly and close my eyes and go as far from the creature as possible. Then I take the seal of clarity out and activate it.
The golden color covers me whole and I start meditating, my whole being feels exceptionally peaceful, I have clarity of mind and then in this state, I do find an anomaly.
What I could feel was the presence of some foreign emotions, I could perceive them as colors, more specifically 2 different colors but I am unable to pinpoint where they are, who they are, or what they are.
Not worrying about the bright golden light covering me, which had made me a beacon for the creature to attack in this dark surroundings, I think rapidly about what had happened until now, all the odd events that had taken place, and all my knowledge of DC on these two colors.
One of the colors is Violet which is much more in quantity than the other one. My increasingly lusty and open behavior, one of the prime example being the forceful way in which I had sex with Mercy Graves.
That night when I went back to the Fortress, I did think back and found my behavior odd and learning from the recent encounter of the book, I checked my whole body and mindscape but found nothing odd. I even asked Jor-El and Tala for help but they too couldn't find anything wrong.
In the end, I just considered it me being overly horny after doing it with Lena, and Mercy being that hot resulted in me losing control. Reading her thoughts also might have spurred me on to be more forceful. But now this purple color definitely explains it all.
The other color is Red, which is very less in quantity comparatively. How I got angered so easily just now, and how I got increasingly violent for no reason at all are the only proofs I needed.
Like I had no reason to battle such a creature, as with my speed I could just take the Trident and go back out. So this whole situation felt way weird.
It's good that I had this Seal of Clarity or else just like last time I would check after this event and find nothing wrong with me. And then I would probably just think of it as me wanting a good fight.
Well, even if I know what's causing it, I can't do anything about it. It's not even necessarily a bad thing, as this is different from what the book did. This is primal, more like an instinct of your being.
Purple and Red, Lust/Love and Anger/Rage, seeing all the connections and facts the most probable cause that I can think about is the Predator entity and the Butcher entity.
The 9 entities of different colors corresponding to their respective emotional spectrums. People of the DC universe usually harness the power of these entities by a lantern and a ring, they are often called the Lantern corps.
But the entity itself also can provide power to its champion and in some cases can even possess a person to gain control of his/ her body.
So it seems that 2 entities are trying to contact, bless, test, or possess me. I get why I was chosen as I am Superman, but I don't get why so soon.
There is still time for the first green lantern of the earth to be chosen and the prophecy of Blackest night that they are afraid, won't happen until much much later.
Now that I think about it there is a solution right in front of me. The Trident of Neptune would be able to solve my problems quite easily.
Now that I know of the problem and the solution, I keep these thoughts aside and open my eyes, deactivating the seal. I look at the creature who instead of coming in my direction went to the opposite, probably trying to heal herself.
I do start feeling some unknown anger towards the creature, but knowing it's root cause, I am able to suppress it easily. I go to the ruined temple, and see the golden three-pronged Trident of Neptune hovering in mid-air.
It was constantly emitting some kind of minor shockwave in the surrounding. The moment I laid eyes on it, I could tell that it was very powerful.
There were two more things set aside on a complete platform nearby. One of them was a conch and another was the gold and green Aquaman suit from the movie.
Realizing that I am going after the Trident I could see the creature rushing towards this place "You won't be able to wield the Trident, Poseidon will never deem you worthy."
"The era of Old Gods have long passed, now is the time of the New Gods."
I extend my hand and grab the Trident tight.
In brightest day, in blackest night,
No girl shall escape my sight!
Let those who wanna steal my bride,
Beware my power, Superman's might!
