บท 16: The Mother
I made a mistake last chapter and compared the Veriteans with Osmosians. What I meant was the Celestialsapiens.
Also since it seems to fit, I took some time to check out Warhammer 40k just a smidge. And I can see the MC going there, but there is just so much lore. Like for real, I spent like hours getting to know some things and still don't know anything. So a good story would probably be impossible, but I could see him become a Grey Knight or even a Librarian Astartes .... who knows?
_________________________________________
I was teaching my children about the Force. I was showing them how to reach a deep meditative state and what to do when you have achieved that. Centuries have passed since they came to be. As 'newborns' the Veriteans weren't suitable to practice the Force just yet. A few centuries was nothing to them.
As long as they were connected to Veritara, they had eternal youth. Not immortality, like me, but as long as they wanted to, they could stay alive fine. They grew up and matured over time and during this time, I used my time to begin the construction of our city. I had planned this a long time ago, but since I didn't want to just choose a random planet, I waited until Veritara had been created. So I am doing it now.
I want to make Veritara a safe haven for my species, which I have come to see as my children now. They even called me as such, even though they see me as more than just their father and hang on my very lips to understand more about the universe. They are all rather curious, but each of them has his or her own personality. And that makes it so much fun to interact and listen to them.
I taught them about the history of the Universe and this galaxy especially. I wanted them to know their way around the galaxy and should they ever choose to leave Veritara, then I would not stand in their way. I could of course tell them and even show them that Veritara was the best planet in the entire Universe, but they would have to make that experience on their own.
.
I felt them reach deep meditation very soon. They were all eager to finally learn about the Force and how to 'use' it. I say use but I mean 'live' with it. The Order that I will create and am already in the works of creating, will not follow either 'side'. I teach them how I learned about the Force and how I 'use' it. They have patience, which is rare for such young ones. I say young because they still have hundreds of thousands of years to live if they want.
As we were meditating, a powerful and malevolent feeling pulsated through the Force and the galaxy.
"Pfff"
"Burgh"
"Kuuugh"
I saw my children puke out of disgust and pain. The being that had just been created was a malevolent and disgusting creature. Only focused on destruction and chaos. I could resist that feeling since I was just that much more powerful, but even I could feel the danger this creature posed. I felt my anger rise. It had to be this woman. The Mother, who had just become Abeloth. They didn't manage to keep her in check, and I specifically told them that I would return. She dared to harm my children, that was unforgivable.
"Calm down.", I said and had the Force soothe them all. The way I used the Force was different from how everyone else did. It followed my will. And sometimes it knew what I wanted before I did consciously. Our bond had risen tremendously and I don't think that any 'Chosen One' could come close anymore. I had grown more powerful and in the last few years, I have noticed a change inside me. But more on that later.
When I saw that they had calmed down, I stood up. It was time to pay them a visit again. They f*cked up badly right now. And I was going to show them just how much so.
.
"Father, where are you going?"
"I will have to pay a visit to the one responsible for what just happened.", I explain.
"Can we come with?", Cecil asks.
"It's going to be dangerous.", I say and wait for them to make their own decisions. I am not going to watch over them for their entire lives. They will have to start making their own choices and this is a good time to start.
"I would like to come still. If you are going to fight, it could be useful for us to see how it plays out."
"So you see this as a way to learn how to use what I teach you?"
"Yes.", they all say.
"Very well. We'll take the Explorer. You will stay on the Explorer and not come out, unless I say so, is that understood?"
"Yes, Dad."
"Very well. Let's go then.", I say and a portal appears in front of me. We all step through. Once we're on deck, I sit down on the command chair and channel the Force through the Explorer. We don't have the time to use hyperspace, I want to go there right now.
"Open a portal for us, dear. I'll send you the space-time coordinates.", I say to Explorer. She has gained full sentience and has declared to identify as a female ... *sigh*
"Okay."
I transmit my thoughts to her and show her the point in space-time where I want her to open a portal. I focus and slowly a giant Force Storm manifests in space. I transmit my will, and where I want to go and a moment later ... a giant portal opens up, revealing the planet where I can feel the core of the problem being.
[Picture]
The Explorer makes its way through the portal. There are slight tremors which I can feel. The powers that are being thrown around in the portal are immense and would make anything other than myself and the Explorer pop like a balloon. A short while later, we are just above the planet where I met the Ones AKA the Celestials before. I can feel a battle going on down there. It seems like Abeloth is playing around with the Son and the Daughter. Well, let's have a look.
Another portal appears in front of me and I step through. But before that, I address them once again.
"For those of you who follow, know that there might not be a chance for me to save you. This is your own decision, so choose well.", I say and then step through. The portal closes after me. They can ask Explorer to open one for them as well, if they want to follow me. But if they stay there, the Explorer can show them what is happening on the big screens. That should satiate their curiosity.
.
I appear on a battlefield. I see all three of the Ones fighting against the Mother. It takes all of them to handle her. But the Father seems to be capable of handling her in the state she is in right now. I guess, the process took a toll on her. But even at full strength, the Father should be capable of handling her together with his children.
The abomination that was once their 'Mother' looks disgusting. I can feel the rotten use of the Force and the wound that it left. She has taken a big part and imbued it into herself. What a disgrace and an affront. She is immortal it would seem, but she is also crazy. I should be happy that there is finally someone that is immortal beside me, but the smell and the feeling of rot, I have right now, make me want to puke.
She is far gone and there might not be anything I can do to get her back. Maybe ...
"RRAAAAAAHHHHH", she screams as she fires powerful Force Lighting at the Father. He blocks it with his hands though and slowly pushes it back to her. She screams and shouts constantly and it is making my ears hurt.
"You weren't supposed to drink from the Font and neither bathe in the Pool. But what you weren't supposed to do under any circumstances, is to do BOTH!!", the Father shouts and I can hear the hurt in his voice. He seems to have feelings for this woman. Or the woman she was before.
A massive amount of Force telekinesis smashes into the Father and he grunts but holds on. The children are back up and are about to do something. I stop them though. They look at me and recognise me immediately. They haven't grown stronger, since I met them. What a waste. Immediate and massive powers for all their potential. But I guess I understand. They weren't immortal in the beginning, just like her.
"Enough!", I say and use the Force in my voice. This makes both of them stop at once. The Father looks at me and then suddenly has worry in his eyes.
"Y-you. We were-"
"I don't care.", I say and walk towards the woman. She has weird tentacle fingers and tries to break out of the command I just gave her. I came to understand that I could use the Force with my voice and simulate 'Cursed Speech'. It's not the same of course, not yet. I am only using the Force to make them stop, by influencing their brains. But I can see this evolving into something similar to 'Cursed Speech' one day.
"She did both, didn't she? She drank from the Font of Power and bathed in the Pool of Knowledge."
"I'm afraid so."
"I hold no prejudice towards you. Chaos is as much part of life as Order. But you represent something vile and rotten. Let's see.", I say and put my palm on her face. I use Psychometry to gain all the information about her. I see her life flash before my eyes. I see what happened to her and her feelings towards the Celestials. She really saw them as her family and they did as well. But then she was worried about dying and did both the things that she knew the children did.
And I see something else ... in that moment when she drank from the Font and bathed in the Pool, the power she gained all at once, killed her and destroyed her soul. She is a living corpse right now. An abomination that has no real feelings anymore, but functions on instincts that only dictate her to destroy and corrupt. She is a cancer right now.
*Sigh*
"How unfortunate.", I say and then begin to pressure her with my telekinesis. The pressure rises and rises and just as she is about to burst, there is an explosion right in my face that makes me shoot across the planet.
*BOOOOOOOM*
Some of my upper body has been blown away by the massive and powerful blast. A moment later, my body has regenerated, but my clothes are gone. I stand back up and feel the power of Abeloth running a rampage. I flash towards their location and stop her from killing the daughter. She seems to be somewhat resistant to the Force as well. That makes sense ... she is technically dead after all.
"AAAAAHHHH", she screams again and uses her powers on me. I feel a powerful Force Push coming from her. I focus and direct a wave of power at her feet. Controlling the plants, I make them wrap around her limbs. She struggles and loses focus of me, giving me time to advance. Before she could push the plants, I used to bind her, I channelled a lot of power through the plants and had them pull her apart from all sides.
"RRRAAAAAAHHHH!!", she screams again and a massive explosion of telekinesis blows all the plants away. She is truly powerful, and I am impressed. Immortal, a resistance to Force abilities and still powerful in the use of the Force. That is a nightmare to fight ... for everyone else.
I still have my hands behind my back. I am not using my hands to wield the Force. I am not even the one defending and attacking. I transmit my plans and at the same moment, powerful and dangerous winds start to pick up and smash against Abeloth. As the power and speed of the winds increase, four tornadoes form around her and lose in. She is again screaming in denial and while she uses her power to hold the tornadoes off, I have already started the next part of the plan.
I can't use Force Sever on her. Force Sever is an ability that severs the connection of someone to the Force. This would mean, they lose the ability to use the Force again. And while powerful, it won't work on her, since she is dead already and her connection to the Force is not based on midi-chlorians.
.
The four tornadoes are still closing in on her. I focus and a moment later, hundreds of different 'imperceptible' spears made out of pure Force energy are formed all around her in the air. The power they emit catches Abeloth's attention. That was inevitable. For the first time in a very very long time, I bring my hands to the front and put my fingertips together, while leaving space between my palms. It looks like a prison.
I knew what she was going to do. After all, I have mastered the art of Shatterpoints. So when she tries to teleport away, to escape this danger ... she can't. I knew what she was going to do and locked the space in a very wide area around us. I am very focused right now.
*WWHOOOOSH*
The spears are fired and impale her from all sides.
"RRRRAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHAAAA", she screams in great pain. Those aren't normal spears, but spears made out of pure Force energy and my vitality as well. As a being that is dead, this is very painful to her. Then the last piece of my plan commences.
The Celestials have already been thrown through portals and are off-world right now. And they better, because in a moment, it will be all gone. Around the screeching Abeloth, a structure begins to form. All around her until a 'cocoon' is formed.
[Picture]
And then ... I clap my hands.
*Clap*
The cocoon begins to glow and then ... the mother of all explosions is heard.
*BOOOOOOOOOO-------------OOOOOOOOMMMMMM*
