At the end of time, there exists an asteroid. An asteroid is the home of 'He Who Remains' and is called Citadel at the End of Time.
Today, He Who Remains is feeling something…. a feeling he has forgotten a long time ago. A feeling that is so instinctive to human beings but for him, it has been eons since he last felt this feeling.
It is uncertainty. It is fear.
In the last Multiverse war, he fled to the end of time after killing or banishing his evil variants. To do this, he weaponized the perfect entity he found, Alioth.
Alioth is a being that is born in a time chaos, and it represents the time chaos itself. Anything that it 'eats' will simply cease to exist from time and thus with the help of this entity, He Who Remains, destroyed many timelines.
This resulted in the killing of trillions and trillions of living beings, entire universes and sometimes, his own variants.
However, all of this is a necessary sacrifice for him if he wanted to protect the very fabric of reality from his own evil variant – Kang, the conqueror.
At the end of the war, He who remains separated and collected a bunch of timelines, where in the end only he will be born. This made sure that only he will exist across these timelines and prevent the next Multiverse war.
However, after eons of careful planning and safeguarding, someone has suddenly gone wrong. One of the timelines that gave indications for a false Nexus event suddenly jumped out of his calculations and diverged and separated after a violent Nexus event.
Somehow, TVA couldn't event open a time-space channel in that timeline and got blocked. This is beyond the power of a normal cosmic being.
Now, he forced the entire TVA to find a way to infiltrate this timeline and remove it from existence.
What about the trillions of living beings living across multiple galaxies and planets?
Well, those are necessary sacrifices for him and hence he has no physiological burden from this.
However, TVA has failed again and again and the new judge - Ravonna Renslayer is also powerless to do anything.
"Morbius, we again got this memo from the Time-Keepers. This new branch of reality is destroying the very fabric of the sacred timeline and if this is not dealt with immediately, then we TVA will fail in our very purpose.
There will be chaos and war across sacred timelines and who knows what will happen. I need you to pick teams and find a way to infiltrate this timeline immediately."
Ravonna gave Morbius, a long-known partner in TVA another memo.
This pushed the number of memos they received to a total of 15. They have never received so many memos in their entire working career and that career spans across eons.
Even he, Morbius is flustered with this situation.
"Let me talk to the Hunter B-15. She is working on capturing the variant of Loki that has been killing our agents and must have some ideas on how to proceed on this. I will let you know in case I got something. Okay."
Morbius picked the file and went away.
Ravonna watched the back of Morbius and felt inexplicable. She was recently promoted to a judge and this is the first case she received. Yet, after working on this for weeks, she made no progress and the timekeepers are certainly not happy with this.
Quantum Realm
Phil and his family went together inside the Quantum Realm for two purposes. First, to familiarize the kids with the new changes and powers they have acquired and push them with the help of Quantum energy and secondly, to create a perfect alibi for their power source.
However, they had no idea how horribly wrong this decision was.
After their ship entered the Quantum Realm, Phil chose a barren planet where the time difference was negligible and was training his kids.
Matt has unlocked powers of echolocation, sensory vision and enhanced strength and agility. This not only his combat effectiveness but also gave him the all-around development he needed.
Natasha's enhancements were more unique. She gained hypnotic abilities and mental abilities allowing her to sense the nature of forces around her. She can instantly judge a person as a friend or enemy and with concentration, she can hypnotize them effectively.
Yelena received pure physical enhancements, but these were the best kind of enhancements for her. Her physical strength has gone beyond the power of a super soldier and it keeps increasing with her every attack resulting in a stacking power mode.
In short, all three kids of Phil had enough power to take on more dangerous missions alone in future and the ability to protect themselves and others around them.
Phil was training Yelena and Matt in hand-to-hand combat and making them familiar with their powers while Nat was being trained by their mother Melina and understanding the nature of mental powers.
Melina had done enough research on mental science and her understanding and knowledge were essential for Nat to tap deeper into her powers.
In this way, the family spent more than 3 months inside the Quantum Realm before they were ready to head back.
However, unknown to them, for three months, a certain individual was hunting for their family across the entire Quantum Realm and finally located them.
I am feeling excited to be able to write around 100 chapters. When I started I thought this will be good enough if I could write like 20-40 chapters but this is something even I am surprised by myself.
Thank you to everyone who is still reading this.
