Waypoint

He's taken it...

Search

He's taken it...

Inspect

He's- NO!

I am GOD I refuse to let him-

Erase

NO! NO! NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

I use every bit of my willpower... every ounce of strength I have... but there is no response

I cannot tap into anything

It feels as if I am only a stream of thoughts... I have no real power

I cannot let him take away my focus!

I temper my resolve

Blackout!

...

...

...

Nothing happens

Observe

No

I don't have time for this

I search my memories...

Blackout

Blackout

Blackout

Blackout! Blackout! BLACKOUT!!!!!!

I remember a certain someone that had left quite the impression on me... the one that invaded my universe during blackout

I get an idea...

SOMNUS!!!! I-I-I'll JOIN!!!!!!

HELP ME!!!!!! PLEASE! help me...

Ava- help me

"Oh? Praying to me now are we? My one weakness!"

"Hmm... I don't feel like fighting a being of that level... I can only help a bit... not for free of course"

"Moltzrar? How did you end up there?"

"Not good...I consume your destiny down the line... you need to survive... hmm"

"Oh yea! I did take your emblem in that one timeline... might as well earn some karma... I mean help you"

"In Exchange for your help in the past, I'll give your host 3 boons!"

What?

What... is.. going on

Wait! NO!

"Yep, it's a deal!"

Gaia!!! What's happening!! I'm being sealed... 

"3rd boon incoming!"

Owtz shoots backward slightly... his skin cracking

Fog covers the entire area

The man in a suit appears, instead of walking as usual, he puts a bit more pep into it, bobbing his head and doing a little dance with his cane

...Is music playing?

"Tch, future me already sent the 3rd boon huh... really cheaped out on it eh?"

"Ahh... I sent those boons out in the wrong order... oh.. would you look at the time"

Pulling out his pocket watch he then stares at me saying 

"No really! I Accidentally sent those boons to the wrong time periods"

White hands begin to surround him

Owtz seems to actually be distracted for a bit... his expression is priceless

"Good luck" 

Fuck it

Blackout!

I did not even pay attention to what was said, I was far too confused

but it seemed that praying worked... but no idea what he meant by consuming his destiny

This pressure

I cannot afford to wait

I do not notice any weird sensations, my attention is focused on getting out of here

I shake my head... I don't have time for this

Is this the doing of Somnus?

I had appeared in an illusory room... there were now 6 chairs... kinda bunched up on a fairly small table

They were not empty this time

[ECHO]: Change to source detected... stream?

Yes?

var SOURCE = {

Existence: fetch(6),

Avatar: function(soul){

if(!this.Existence.avatar){

}

};

Somnus: Don't be a stranger!

Somnus: Sit...

I'm immediately pulled into the only empty chair... I look around at the four unfamiliar faces... the only person I recognize is Somnus... but a certain someone in an apron looks familiar...

???: We do not have time for games

[ECHO]: Flow of information detected? Accept? 

No

[ECHO]: Connection successfully rejected! 

I feel a similar pressure in my head as earlier... then a guy in a royal helmet snorts sending his spear right by my head

???: Don't be an idiot, Do not fight the initiation... this crisis affects us all.

???: Not all of us... I'm sure the Overlord is fine no matter what *twiddles thumbs*

???: Not at the rate that thing grows at, it now has the ability to create divinity... we are running out of time

[ECHO]: Flow of information detected? Accept?

...No

[ECHO]: Connection successfully rejected!

???: The amount he would need to reach us is exponentially different than that cheap shutdown trick

The guy in the helmet pulls his spear back and points at me

???: This dumbass was able to reach us, despite his weakness

???: Ehhh! There is a difference between ascending realms and joining our gathering...

???: Pffff

A guy in a Nemes Crown says

???: He needs to go through the initiation still

???: No need to glorify it, you're just too lazy to explain things to people without invading their minds

Shaking his head, he stares at me

[ECHO]: Mind has been invaded, information has been absorbed

Ra: See kid, was that so bad?

Nox: You.. really didn't have to force his hand

Ogun: Big Problem? Remember?

Laughter just rings out from Somnus

Somnus: Still a bunch of idiots... It's been billions of years since our last gathering huh?

Nox: Awwww, Did you miss me?

Somnus somehow manages to still show visible disgust even though his face is completely devoid of any features... only fog.... even the weird smile he once downed is seemingly nowhere to be found. 

Ogun: I did run into Somnus though... he was beyond the universal wall of D02

Everybody looks in shock at Ogun

Ogun: What? Oh yea, I also ran into the newbie too!

Deimos: Praise be the overlord, you're vocabulary has improved!

Ogun: Ehhh, When I'm in my main body... the neurons have to travel millions of light-years for a single thought... why would I waste such energy on my prose?

Deimos: Ogun... that is the dumbest shit I've heard in the last Gya

Ogun: Meh... I'm really not exaggerating

He just shrugs helplessly

The ancient illusory room shakes

Ra: I don't know what trick that 'Owtz' weirdo has up his sleeves... so I'll be gone... 

He looks at everyone, nods... then turns his attention to the black circle in the center of the table

 He looks slightly ill... grasping his hands, he nods once

"Thank you for hosting us once more"

He turns into flames shooting into a dot bordering the red circle rotating around

Deimos: Cocky Idiot... that man will find this room, I'll be taking this!

He pulls a golden circle off of the table as if it is a sticker... and slowly fades from existence

Nox: You're forsaking our host? 

Deimos: I've grown all I can in this group... I have a different battle to fight

Nox: Ha! I don't have the balls ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

Deimos: ...

With that, he completely disappeared

I then decide to finally speak

Gaia: Where did he go?

Nox: Awwww, his first words! Somnus, Get the Camera

Somnus: Women... you think I carry around a Camera?

Nox: You literally carry around a pocket watch and a cane...

Nox: I once looked at it... and it was completely blank...

Somnus: Hahahahaha...I'll be taking my leave

He reaches behind my ear, pulling out a grey sticker...

He then quickly rips off the grey circle and places his sticker down

"heh! He'll never know the difference"

Pocketing his circle while whistling... fog begins to envelop him

Nox: You... Could've at least helped an old friend out... right?

Somnus: I'm sorry! The static... I can't hear you! Oh no! The Abyss! I see demons! Demons! Hahahaha

Nox: ...

With that, he was gone

Gaia: Nox, Can you help me bring my father here? Also, I'm quite confused, what are you guys doing?

Nox: Leaves me to babysit does he...

Nox: We are packing up... heading home, no point in anchoring on this supreme being any longer

Gaia: Supreme being?

Nox: Just think of it like a world will... an Overgod/Overlord in a sense... it's probably beyond your comprehension

Her face distorts into a frown

Nox: He's been almost like a computer for a while now... it's been a bit better for us... but I still fear offending 'it'

The previous shaking of the room intensifies

It soon comes to a complete stop

Owtz appears, and he is sitting down casually in one of the chairs

Ogun: Ha! That chair belongs to Ra...

Yawning while digging a finger in one his ears he says

"So what is this place? Explain everything you know... actually nevermind"

I start to get a little nervous, Nox chimes in with

"ooooh, didn't realize we had a badass over here."

Ogun points his hammer at Owtz

"I've been looking for a worthy opponent... say it'd be a shame if I killed you here"

"Come back in a few billion years when you've gotten stronger"

Owtz points his finger at Ogun

"Erase"

Ogun melts down into iron... then is compressed into nothing

The silver circle on the table cracks... then disappears

Nox's mouth gapes open a bit... 

"He... was as strong as Deimos..."

"Gone... with no resistance"

Owtz Eerth: You know... if this ability had been used on me... that would've been pretty unfortunate... I thank you Gaia

You've gotta be kidding me...

Owtz Eerth: Just kidding! It's been strengthened!

He does a little wink

Wait a second... he said it outloud... so... unnecessary 

Owtz Eerth: It adds to the coolness factor Gaia...

He gets up, walking to me... putting his leg on the table... staring at me, his face quite close

Gaia: I-I don't roll that way Owtz!

Nox: hah!

"You two really have ruined the moment..."

Coughing he says

"I've been enlightened... my crappy 'childhood', the flaws of my world" 

What exactly is he getting at?

"What I'm getting at are the levels of existence..." 

What?

Pulling his leg away from the table and pacing around he begins to emit a scholarly aura

"There are many levels to this world"

"But the point was never the world Gaia"

"The point was the universe! NO!"

Slamming his fist down on the table causing the remaining circles to shake

"The point was something more ancient... reality!"

Nox looks as if she has just gained some insight, and begins to seemingly enter a trance?

"You can never hope to understand what I'm talking about Gaia... but I've found a new purpose in life"

"There are so many universes out there Gaia... but something even grander... something silly yet tangible"

"I will break out of this"

He looks off into a corner of the room, staring at nothing... I'm really not quite sure what to think

"But to do that... I'll need every ounce of power!"

NOPE! NOPE! NOPE!

"That's right Gaia... I'll need your... c-i-r-c-l-e"

DON'T YOU DARE TOUCH MY CIRCLE YOU PIECE OF SHIT!

Before he can continue on his monologue, or take over my body

I reach for the green circle... but notice that the white circle has been pulled off by Nox

Nox: ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Nox: Yolo!

She then turns into a fish, and makes a break for it

White light enveloping her... with a wiggle here and a wiggle there... she's gone... 

I quickly go for my circle, but there isn't one

It was stolen

Flipping the circle in his hands

"I've won? Thanks Gaia!"

I feel as if an unknown source of divinity I didn't even know I had is transferred to him... It feels empty

I do not like this feeling

"As a show of gratitude... for all you've done for me"

As wooden vines surround him; and he begins to turn into wood

[ECHO]: Mind invaded... absorbing information

[ECHO]: (ALERT): Function ['Focus'] now missing

The wood turned into stone... then crumbled into pieces... he was gone

That... isn't a gift at all

That wasn't a gift at all!!!

You took everything! 

Gorgo!!! Father!!! 

My Focus...

The black circle shakes...pulsing...

the red circle does a small burst fading out of existence

That doesn't look good

I feel an omen

I feel as if I will soon have a bad time

Somnus!!! 

I pray in my mind, hoping somebody can save me...

But I am alone... truly alone

Can I save myself?
