"I thought you would support the people of Earth because you like them." John smiled and said.
"Humanity has its own merits. They are arrogant. They think that they are above nature. But there is good in them. Your Avengers have demonstrated that quite a few times now. Making the Earth cleaner, saving people. There is so much potential in humanity. Nothing is perfect in this world. And humanity as a whole embraces that concept."
"True. But all of you won't be approving your stance when the truth comes out." John said.
"They will always listen to me." Ajak said, shaking her head as she was the leader and her command was the last one.
"Ikkaris will kill you." John said while sipping the juice given by Chansey. The juice was really sweet and he was loving it.
"What did you say?" Ajak eyes' went wide when John said that. Her voice croaked.
"You heard me right. He won't support your change of camps and will definitely kill you to stop the others from knowing the truth." John said.
"This is impossible." Ajak said.
"It is what it is, Ajak. When he will listen to your side of the story he won't take it lightly. That is what is supposed to happen." John said.
"You don't know him. He is a soldier. And soldiers listen to orders." Ajak said.
"A soldier that belongs to whom? You? No. He is a soldier who belongs to Arishem. He won't even hesitate to confront Sersi. Forget about you." John said.
"But he has never gone against my orders. Never. In all of thousands of years we have been together. Even on other planets." Ajak said.
"It doesn't matter Ajak. He won't listen. He is a believer of Arishem. A blind believer of a non caring God is a very dangerous thing. Anyway, how much time do we have left for the emergence?" John asked.
"A year or so. I will go and summon the others." Ajak said.
"A year. That is a long time. You don't need to summon them. I will come back to deal with this. Avengers will help you. We can handle the emergence but I want Sersi to handle Tiamat. I have plans for his body. Since they have abandoned this universe, I want to see how Arishem will react."
"Abandoned the universe. What does that mean?" Ajak said.
"Nothing. You will know in due time. But here is a FOCUS that is connected with the Guilty Spark. The moment he attacks you, you can just notify it and Guilty Spark of the Ring will teleport you near my home. Don't confront him. I have very special arrangements for him." John said with a smile.
"No. Please don't hurt him. He has just diverted from his path." Ajak said as she thought John would kill him. He had seen the power of the Avengers in the latest war. Ikkaris wouldn't stand a chance.
"He will get his time to place his ideals. If he is beyond redemption, we will have to put an end to it." John said.
"That is acceptable. But I wish to give him a chance. Since you say he will kill me, I want to see if he does that." Ajak said. Ajak really wanted to give him a chance and see if he could be saved from his false ideals.
"Fair enough. But if he persists, then he will be stopped. But don't put too many coins on your faith. Some people are beyond redemption." John said.
"I understand." Ajak replied.
"Alright then. I am off. I will be back soon. Since I have one year, I don't have much time left. Can't wait to meet Arishem." John said with a chilling smile. He was really waiting to meet Arishem now. John was now on his level and he couldn't wait to see the hypocrite Gods.
"Why do you seem so excited to meet him? He will kill you." Ajak said as she felt weird that John was so eager to meet Arishem. No matter how powerful the Avengers were, they still fell short against the Gods.
"Kill me? Hahaha.. Even I can't kill me. He will get a taste of his own medicine. But that is for the future. See you Ajak in a year or so." John said as he laughed. Ajak felt that John had gone insane. But she had her own thoughts now. She thought John was lying when he said Ikkaris would kill her. He believed in her comrades more than a random guy who just appeared.
But she can't prove that John was wrong. She needed to see it herself, and for that she needed to wait to meet him. She wasn't in contact with him and didn't know how to summon him. So all she could do now is wait.
And pray that whatever John said was a lie, or else it would really go down in an ugly manner.

"Bye Ajak." John said as he vanished. He was back at his old home. His father's home. It was already evening when John reached New York so he was sure his father would be arriving soon. He needed to talk to his father before he left.
As John knocked on the door, Val opened it.
"Hey Val. It's been some time." John said with a smile.
"John!!" Val exclaimed. John hadn't been home for a long time. Val knew that now John was an Avenger and she couldn't be more proud of him. Even though John never admitted it, she could always feel the person in the golden helmet, the famous Dr. Fate was John.
Now most of the people of the world knew of Dr. Fate. Thanks to the Justice League series. But they were surprised that the Phoenix guy was also Dr. Fate. She couldn't be more proud. She hugged him instantly.
"Hi. How are you?" John asked as they went inside.
"I am fine. How are you John? How is life in the Ring? You haven't come home in such a long time." Val complained a bit. John felt guilt as he really had been paying attention to Earth and all the people here. He needed to be more grounded in reality.
Power had made him a little bit arrogant. Especially now that he had the omnitrix. He remembered the last words of the Ancient One. He felt ashamed that he had been drifting away recently.
He needed to remedy the situation.
"I am sorry Val. I promise I will visit often." John said.
"It's fine. I was just being a nagging old lady. You have your own world now in the Ring. You can't always come back home as you have work." Val said as she felt that he made John feel guilty.
"No. I don't actually work much nowadays. It's just that there had been too many things recently."
"I understand. Mr. Mime, can you bring some snacks for us? Thank you." Val said out loud. John was surprised to see Mr. Mime working at their home. He had sent Vulpix to his father before but he didn't know the whole Mr. Mime thing.
"When did father catch him?" John asked.
"Your dad didn't. I did. I watched the Pokemon series. So I personally went out to catch one for housework. I caught one pretty easily." Val said with a hint of pride as she was able to catch a Pokemon with almost no help.
"That is great. You should be a Pokemon trainer." John said.
"Oh please. I don't have that much energy to fight in tournaments." Val said. And as they were talking John's father finally entered the house opening the door. He had a Vulpix walking beside him.
"Son." Jameson said with a surprised tone.
"Dad. How are you?" John asked with a smile after hugging him.
"After all this time you remember your home?" Jameson asked.
"I am sorry Dad, I have been occupied with so many things." John said.
"Yeah yeah. You and your new Avengers." Jameson said. John just smiled at it but didn't deny it.
"How are you Dad?" John asked.
"I am fine. Thanks to Vulpix here I am happy with my life." Jameson said as he took the Vulpix in his hands. The Pokemon cooed after sitting on his lap. John went and pet him.
"Maybe I should get myself some Pokemons." John mumbled. He never caught any Pokemons because he always felt it wasn't required. All the Pokemon in the world were under his control so it was utterly useless for him. But now that he thought about it he needed some companions in his life. Audino was more like a caretaker of the house instead of being his Pokemon.
"You don't have any Pokemons?" Jameson asked as he heard John's mumbling.
"No. I never got the time. While they went to catch Pokemon I was busy keeping the world clean and making sure that Pokemon's weren't treated badly."John said.
"You should get one. Pokemons is a way of life now." Jameson said as he felt really grateful about the new world. He always felt hollow after he lost his wife, but after Vulpix came into his life he felt really happy and grateful for his life.
"Yeah I should. Maybe I will later." John said. They all started talking about their lives and how everything was going on. Before coming here John decided to just show his face to his father and leave but after meeting them he decided otherwise.
He stayed over at their place for the night. They had a good hearty meal together. Val as usual left early in the evening as she had her own family. So John and his father had a good time talking.
Jameson was just happy to see his son after a long time. Recently he had been thinking of moving to the Ring as John suggested. He could always control the Daily Bugle from there and it would be quite convenient too.
