"VOLCANIUM SOLDIERS! FRONT AND CENTER!!" Commander Magma yelled to which the legions teleported in saluting. "You better have information we could use to expand the Dominator empire across the universe. Soldier 1126!" A Volcanium Solider with yellow glows rather then orange teleported through. "Give me your report. Now."

"Oh U-uh ok." 1126 brought out a hologram showing a massive silhouette of an unknown ship. "Ship from an unknown universe. They look aggressive as heck and I recommend we don't mess with them"

"Fascinating, I hereby promote you to Captain Duh of the Idiot Brigade!" Volcanium Soldier 351212! A Volcanium Soldier with green glows teleported through. "Show the newbie how it's done."

351212 then brought up dozens of hologram showing multiple ships. "The Vegas Quadrant: Status unconquered. Planet of Chorus: Status in civil war. Planet Harmony: Status unconquered. Conclusion: Dominate."

"That's my boy! See that work, try and do twice that. Why can't you be more like 351212? Especially you two, I'm looking at you 1021114 and 31215."

"The machine I popped out of broke." 31215 replied.

"I could care less your opinion of me." 1021114 replied.

"Well if there's nothing else to be said..." Magma said before turning to 1126. "You have failed me for the last time!" Magma then pulled out his Magma blade slicing him in half before opening a trap door under him. "Now then...GET BACK TO WORK!" All the soldiers scrambled out at 351212 walked of smug jumping out the hanger scanning planets that past by him, none of them Magma praise material, that is, until he saw the asteroid he was falling towards. Landing with a superhero landing he looked up at the massive temple giving off massive amounts of unknown energy, the entrance glowing an ominous red. Walking in cracking his knuckles 351212 paid no attention to the skeletons littered around the entrance, many of them having broken skulls.

351212 was confused at where he was, it looked like he just came to another planet standing on some ground, a large crater in the ground by his right. 351212 attempted to contact the ship to let them know what he found, but nothing came through at all. He put his hand to the ground confused. "It can't be..." he said to himself.

"Shamak leenek tomul..." A deep voice yelled echoing through the area, sounding like it came from nowhere yet everywhere.

"What?"

The voice mumbled a little before speaking again. "Who. Are. You?"

"Volcanium Soldier 351212."

"I know what you really are monster." A voice said behind him prompting 351212 to turn around, his oil freezing cold at the sight of the golden haired boy facing him before bringing his right unbroken arm back. "Ka...me..."

"I-impossible. You shouldn't be here..."

"Ha...me..." A large blue ball of energy formed in his hands.

351212 began to run away in terror before looking back as the boy thrusted his hand forward. "HA~!"

351212 screamed as the beam came right towards him before he tripped.


351212 fell to the ground outside the entrance into the temple terrified before looking up seeing Volcanium Soldiers 31215 and 1021114 looking at him with another yellow one behind them.

"Woah where did you come from?" The yellow one asked.

"You guys wouldn't believe it! I was back on my Earth! The games were going on then that little asshole-"

"Hold on, you were on your Earth? Oh I've gotta see this." The yellow one then walked through as the green one tried to stop him.

"What's your number?"

"17541."

351212 turned to looked at the others. "Do not go in there, it was insane, way too life like- and he's gone isn't he?"

The other two simply nodded.


17541 walked through a modern city confused. "He said this was his Earth, it looks like a Earth but not his."

"Who. Are. You?" The booming voice asked him.

"Volcanium Soldier 17541."

"Lies." He turned around seeing an Alicorn in an evil costume with flaming hair, blood red eyes, and a pure white coat looking at him. "You're the coward that's given me so much trouble." She charged at 17541 firing a fire blast he narrowly dodged before taking out a sword slicing her in two before she dissipated from the hit into nothing.

"What the heck? Is this one of those center of the mind deals?" A rumble shook the ground. "I mean that would've explain Stupid but why use Anti-Matter? It doesn't make any-" He never finished as a closer rumbling shook the ground and he turned around to come face to face with a giant hulking mare in a torn costume. "There she is." He said in a high pitched and terrified voice as she brought a hoof back.


17541 screamed as he was sent fling out of the temple landing in a pile of skeletons, some of the bones piercing him. "Ouch." He simply said as it they didn't hurt.

"Serves you right for ignoring my warning. Told you he packed a punch."

"No it wasn't him it was Anti-Matter, then you know who deck me out the exit."

"Who's you know who?"

"I hate you. And I'm getting the credit this time, we agreed we'd take shifts."


"Everything all of you brought is garbage. Volcanium Soldier 351212 Report." Magma said brimming with rage as Dominator simply sat in her throne behind him. 17541 stumbled out of the crowd to which Magma looked at him. "Either you give me something I want to see or you give up your life."

17541 projected a hologram of the temple showing the massive energy signature it gave it.

"Sweet Volcanium Flames! This source of energy is limitless!" Magma jumped down smiling and giving 17541 dap. "17541, you are the man! We are going to rock the universe like a hurricane! Literally, we're gonna us this energy to build a cannon that'll tear apart whole solar systems like a storm. Location, now please."

17541 hesitated to tell him as he realized what this could do to the rest of the universe, and the multiverse should they get access to it.

"17541, you were built, you can be taken apart just as easily... Where are the coordinates?"

"They're at 26 Shove it by 43 Eat my ass!" 17541 then pressed his purge button wiping all the data from his drive freaking out Magma.

"What?! Stop it! No! Control Z! Control Z!" Magma yelled before the data was erased entirely from his sight. All the Volcanium Soldiers took a step backward as Magma then turned to 17541 drawing his sword. "You...worthless...PIECE OF GARBAGE!" Magma then swung his sword slamming 17541 into the wall before he calmed down. "Toss him into the trash compactor." He commanded before 17541 moved surprising Magma as that hit usually killed a Volcanium Solider.

He slid up to the wall before his arms grabbed his head and pull until it ripped off revealing Alfreda's head beneath it. "Ow~ I'm telling Robot Resources on your metal ass."

"Alfreda!" 351212, 31215, and 1021114 yelled before tearing off their armor revealing Cell, Caboose, and Juan beneath their shells respectively.

Magma blinked as he snapped back to reality at the sight. "How did you idiots infiltrate my army?!"

"You think it's hard to blend it with your morons?" Juan replied. "The real hard part was fitting into those things, and especially going to the bathroom."

"I'm surprised you didn't know." Dominator siad walking down the stairs.

"You knew the whole time!?"

"D-did you not?"

Magma's eye twitched before he simply got up and walked away. "I'll be in my room slamming my face into the wall questioning everything I knew this past week."

"Where did you guys find this thing?" Dominator asked.

"We're actually right above it, Cell was Pinkie was driving the ship before Wander came by and they left for some party. There is literally a stick, keeping the wheel in place."


Dominator, Alfreda, Cell, Juan, and Caboose walked to the temple while Dominator looked fascinated a little. "This is it? What was the problem?"

"Oh you'd be surprised what we saw in there." Alfreda replied before spotting some markings on the side of the temple.

"Ok, I'm gonna check it out then, maybe I'll find whatever's giving off that energy reading."

"Dominator wait the markings say- She's gone." Alfreda said as Dominator vanished into the temple light.


Dominator simply wandered around the room that didn't seem to end, nearly as black as night with several pillars around her. She stopped dead in her tracks as she heard a voice.

"Who. Are. You?" It asked.

"Lord Dominator, the girl that's gonna take whatever you're hiding in here."

"Was that a joke D?" Another voice asked. Dominator froze in her tracks recognizing it as if she heard it her entire life. She turned to see someone walking from behind a pillar. It was a wirewolf, but his body save for his head was covered in ice with icicles sticking out like spikes, his ice blue eyes having an evil and unhinged twinkle behind them. "And Magma say my puns were bad."

"N-no, you shouldn't be here, you should be dead." She said backing away from him before bumping into someone behind her who felt really hot. She turned around coming face to face with a Wirewolf that appeared to be made entirely of stone with some cracks along his body glowing red, his right arm and the tip of his tail made entirely out of lava. "Not so much should be Dominator more of made it seem like. We'll always be there to make you suffer. Sometimes Glacier, sometimes me, but always there to make you suffer. After all, who knows you better then us?"

The world around them changed into one with fields covered in fire. Dominator stumbled around before she looked at her hands, suddenly caked with blood. When she looked up she saw some burning skeletons and moved to them not believing what she was seeing, when suddenly the largest one jumped up grabbing onto her.

"Why did you kill us!?" It yelled, it's voice sounding like gravel on glass.

"I-it wasn't me! Those two monsters killed you all!" She answered back.

"They used your hands! Your families blood cakes your hands!!!" The skeleton roared, it's eyes glowing a fiery orange. The other skeletons began to rise and grab onto her as Dominator heard maniacal laughter, looking around she saw many of the two wirewolves, all around her laughing.

The pain of this moment was tearing her heart and mind apart. "I-I'm sorry!" She yelled. "I'm sorry!"

"Neither sorry nor forgiveness will undo you killing us!"

Dominator blasted the skeletons away as the wirewolves laughter grew louder echoing in her skull as the skeletons simply got back up before yelling at her. "Your true name meant freedom, but you've forgotten it, because you reject it. All though you can't take all the credit. We set it in motion, because we are you, Lord Dominator."

"We are your past,"

"Murderer!"

"Present,"

"Villain!"

"AndFuture."

"Monster!!"

Dominator's eyes started to well up with tears as she fell to her knees, the pain and guilt finally snapping her like a twig, the voice from before returning once more.

"Who. Are. You?"

Dominator simply sobbed, unable to speak coherently through her emotional turmoil before managing to say something but it couldn't be made out.

"WHO. ARE. YOU?"

"I don't know!" She roared out to the sky before sobbing back into her hands. "I don't know..." She repeatedly whispered.

"Don't know what?" A voice asked. Dominator looked up seeing she was out of the temple and Alfreda asked her the question. "Wait a minute are you crying?" He asked to which Dominator responded by stabbing him in the chest with a blood scythe. "Okay I deserved that." Alfreda gurgled as he fell down the temple steps to which Juan laughed at him.

Dominator walked down the steps wiping away the tears angrily, hiding her face from them as she walked by. "You guys can have whatever piece of junk this is, I'm out of here."

"C'mon Dominator, we found it together, we'll exploit it together." Dominator got up right in Cell's face, her own still wet with tears. "You don't know what it's like to put everything you knew behind you, only for some piece of junk to rip it out of you making you feel all the emotions you felt the first time tenfold."

Cell lightly put his hand on her shoulder. "Hey. I've faced my past, and accepted it, it may have kicked my ass in there, but I'm accepting it, if you need to talk, just ask, and I will listen."

"Ok if we're done with the pep talk about feeling insignificant in this vast multiverse as I was saying these marking tell us exactly what's inside." Alfreda said as his wound healed.

"This temple was built to house a massive but evil power inside, only someone of pure good-"

"And that's why both of Me and D failed." Cell interjected.

"Can enter to claim the dark power." Alfreda continued annoyed. "But the catch is that person must have an empty mind so no fears can be manifested by the temple to fight them and break them. That's why I failed because my past haunts me like Ghost Nappa."

"Wait a minute are you paraphrasing empty mind?" Juan asked.

"No it says exactly that." Alfreda replied before what Juan was implying clicked in his head and they both looked at Caboose.

"Were you guys saying something?" Caboose asked. "I zoned out."


Caboose looked around confused as he stumbled through. "Oh wow that was bright!"

"Who. Are. You?" The voice asked.

"I'm Caboose." Caboose replied happily.

"You're...different."

"Yeah I'm blue."

"You have negativity inside your heart, but your mind does not seem to register it, making it impervious to mental attacks."

"Is that you Simmons? You're using big words like Simmons."

"You are unaware of what's around you?"

"What?" Caboose looked around to see he was in Blood Gulch and everyone was there appearing to yell at him but he couldn't hear anything they said at all. "Oh hey, did someone put the mute button on? Is everyone playing charades?"

"You cannot hear them?"

"You can't hear what people say in charades, it's charades."

"Your mind must be so clear that in here it's filters out all that you fear reminding you of all the good that you have accomplished."

"Yeah we beat a bald chairman."

A red glow appeared in front of Caboose as his surroundings vanished. "You are worthy to claim this temple's secret..." It said.

Caboose simply looked at it before smiling. "Ok."


Caboose walked out waving at the others. "Hey guys!"

"Caboose, you're not crying like a baby like I thought you would." Alfreda said.

"Yeah all the people I meant were in Blood Gulch and everyone seemed to play charades at the same time but I couldn't figure out what they were saying and this big voice guy said I was worthy and he told me a lot of secrets about the universe."

"Wait a minute. There was someone else in there? Who in there right mind and iron will could live in there?"

"Me." The deep voice said before a red glow behind Caboose blinding everyone before dying down. It was a Wirewolf a head taller then Alfreda but he had some satyr like features as well, the horns of a ram prominent on his head. "Greetings. Is there someone among you I can speak to with a higher intelligence?"

"Um ok. Right over here. First question, who the buck are you?" Alfreda asked.

"I am the guardian of this temple and the evil power hidden inside. I was tasked to only give it to the one most worthy to take it then destory it so that it may never cause any more misery."

"And for that I named him... Krampus." Caboose added to which everyone did a double take.

"Krampus?" Alfreda asked.

"Krampus." Caboose repeated.

"Krampus." Dominator said in disbelief.

"Krampus." Krampus assured.

"I can't say I care, but he's a better Krampus then the one from that crappy movie." Juan said. "So demon thing-"

"Krampus."

"I refuse to call you that. What is this dark power you we're talking about?"

"The power that is contained inside this temple is two shards of a dark gem simply known as the Apex Ruby."

"Oh boy exposition. That's always fun to hear." Alfreda said as he got everyone down on a picnic blanket he laid out munching on some popcorn.

"Before there was time, before there was anything, there was nothing. But before there was nothing, there was the primordial and chaotic form of Apex, the God of Evil, Death, and Darkness Incarnate. From the darkness that slowly turned into nothing, a big bang burst out creating some of the known multiverse in the few seconds of it's creation. All the energy from that explosion clumped together, which created Alpha, the Goddess of Good, Light, and All Life Incarnate. Apex's form took actual shape and upon gaining sentience, he realized how much of a threat to his power Alpha was, so he battled her. This battle went on for millennium before they realized they could not overcome each other. Apex seeing this created 7 children, each one carrying a piece of his full power, who then fused some of their power together, creating the Grandson of Apex, and God of Chaos, Destruction, and Ruin Incarnate, Omega. Omega attempted to battle Alpha but he was easily stripped of his physical form, cast out from the Multiverse to the void between spaces.
Apex fell into a deep slumber from exerting all his power like that, but not before he copied his full power once again, but into a gem which would be called, The Apex Ruby, he sent it out where it simply flew across the stars before crashing somewhere where it shattered into 41 pieces scattering across the multiverse. Apex's body broke down as he slept, becoming the Black Holes that littered every world. Alpha created the Alpha Sapphire with the same number of pieces to counter the Ruby, and Seven Good from her full power as well to counter the Seven Evils, the Goods names were Virtue: Good of essentially good, having all her sisters powers and helped spread Alpha's message with it: All life is sacred, Everything relies on each other, and everything will become one eventually. My creators even came up with a saying to help support it as well as comfort themselves: I'm one with Alpha, Alpha's with me."

"Get back to the names." Juan said.

Krampus grumbled before continuing. "Serentity: Good of Patience and Calming.
Charity: Good of Generosity.
Godspeed, the Good of Speed, channeling almost the entirety of the power known as the Speed Force.
Gaia: Good of Nature.
Granite: Good of Stone.
And Vortex: Good of Winds.and Each one serving as a counter to the evil of Apex."

"You know it's weird you said the names of the goods but not the evils."

"If you gave me some time between sentences you wouldn't find it weird. Now if you'll let me continue, there was Sin: Evil of Sin itself. The strongest and most cunning of her siblings, containing all of their powers combined.
Malice: Evil of Rage, hate, etc. Able to control those filled with great anger and make his opponents angry enough to control them or make them fight each other.
Avarice: Evil of all greed incarnate. Able to make people feel enormous amounts of greed and able to control dragons with relative ease as well as draw on all greed to increase his own power.
Blur: Evil of speed. A Grim Reaper of sorts taking the Speed of a Speedster just because he wants it.
Hurricane: Evil of storms, able to manipulate weather as she pleased and took a good chunk of Apex's ego, and able to take control of the minds of those that are very prideful.
But the most dangerous of all 7, was not Sin, but the twin evils born from the opposite spectrums of Apex's mind. Their names, were
Magma and Glaicer: The Evils of Fire and Lava, and Ice and Cold respectively."

Alfreda did a spit take with his soda. "Magma and Glacier!?"

"You are familiar with the Twin Evils?"

"Familiar, they're working for f*cking Dominator!" Juan yelled.

"Ridiculous. The Evil do not simply take on hosts moving freely like the Goods, they are trapped within artifacts that are a good representation of them. The First three Evils I mentioned are all sealed in a skull most commonly known as Pandora's Box. Hurricane is sealed in a sphere of electricity called the Electro Orb. Blurr is trapped in a Lightning Rod connected directly to the Speed Force, allowing it to prevent him from roaming free unless a Speedster's residual Speed Force energy remains, as the Time Wraiths and Black Racer will not claim it as that energy is out of their jurisdiction. Magma and Glacier are sealed within a pair of gloves that look just like Lord Domina- I'm beginning to realize you're right." Krampus said looking at the gloves.

Alfreda then turned around to face her. "Okay Dominator here's the plan. I'm gonna take those gloves, burn them, when that's done I'm gonna burn them some more, then I'm gonna kill Magma and Glacier."

"No! It could be just an unfortunate coincidence."

"Well Magma and Glacier were present in your testing grounds."

"Don't you have a reward to give us for passing your trial?" Dominator replied annoyed.

"Forgive me for stating facts." Krampus said before a portal opened as a small single red puzzle piece like gem fell out of it before the portal disappeared.

Alfreda looked at it before cocking his head. "Really? All that trauma and all these skeletons just for a little shard?" Alfreda went to pick it up as Juan tried to stop him.

"Alfreda don't you-" It was too late as Alfreda picked it up before it shocked him causing him to have a seizure on the ground, his eyes glowing an unholy red before Juan got down and stabbed him with a hunting knife in the chest then his eyes killing Alfreda to which he revived, his first act being a Bitch Slap to Juan's face. "Stop doing that!"

"Stop having seizures, and do that again, I'll cut off your fingers, tail, and tongue and turn it into a necklace."

"What happened?" Cell asked.

"I touched it and it give me a hell of a lot of visions of the future. I couldn't make out all of them but I know I saw me fighting with Red Horn instead of that asshole killing me, Derpy wearing Saitama's suit, and even unfortunately saw Shadow Blot and Solar Mare making a baby."

"You sure that was your universe?"

"Pretty sure. I saw one of Juan choking the life out of my eyes while Blood Steel watched bemused."

"Yeah that's our universe." Juan replied.

"Uh guys? I think the Space Pirates from my universe found me." Caboose said.

"Huh. What makes you say that?"

"There's a giant spaceship of death above us." Everyone looked up to see a massive ship that looked Wirewolf in origin above them, a twinkle appeared on a spot on it's underbelly that grew bigger as a massive laser impacted the temple destroying it in a beam of light.


Cell flexed his wings sending the rubble on top of him looking around, the explosion having created a cloud of dust covering everything. Cell looked down to see Dominator under him with a few cuts on her arms and face with a face of confusion. "I don't know if I should be grateful you protected me, or angry because you're on top of me."

"I'd say both." Cell replied getting up and pulling her out before they looked around. "Yo Alfreda. Say something if you're injured! It works either way!"

"I have, shrapnel, skewering, my organs. WHY WAS I PROGRAMMED TO FEEL PAIN!?" Alfreda yelled from behind some rubble to which Cell and Dominator ran over, Dominator snickering a little at all the shards that were piercing his chest.

"Let's see if you find that funny when it happens to you." Alfreda yelled before puking out some blood.

"Not my fault." Caboose said wandering through the dust with Juan.

"Maybe. Silver lining, we learned everything we needed to from Krampus before he bit the proverbial dust with that temple."

"Au contraire." A voice said to which Krampus popped up next to Juan's head now roughly the size of his head.

"You jumped into my hardware didn't you, you digital son of a bitch."

"Self preservation is my 2nd protocol."

"I can already tell I hate you."

"Mutual feelings shared." Krampus then disappeared before a large slamming sound impacted shaking everyone as something lumbered forth. it was a massive Wirewolf, but at the same time it wasn't, it had the blue color schemes of a wirewolf, but it was clearly a different species, what with the large cavity in it's chest, along with spikes on it's body, it's teeth shining through the smoke off the light of it's deadly three glowing blood red eyes.

"A Dog of War. It had to be a Dog of War." Juan deadpanned as some Wirewolves came up behind them and their sides aiming their blasters, wearing menacing armor, one stepping forth with a gloved hand grabbing the Apex Ruby shard off the ground with a smile. "The Apex Ruby, always believed it was a myth, but this will prove a beautiful gift to the Council."

"The Council?" Alfreda asked before groaning. "Alpha damn it it's the Order of the Claw."

"We prefer Omega but whatever comforts you rotting in the bowels of our cells. Crush." The Wirewolf commanded the Dog of War to which he grabbed them and carried them to the gravity lift that opened up where the temple once stood.


Crush dropped Dominator, Caboose, Juan, Alfreda and Cell down into the hole before closing it allowing the lights to turn on showing them the dozens of cells outside theirs, countless Wirewolves and other species locked up.

"We're in Space Prison guys." Caboose said.

"Thank you for waiting so long to say that Caboose." Juan said as he sat on the bucket that was an excuse for a toilet.

"Word of advice Dominator." Cell said.

"What?" She said unamused, having her helmet confiscated and her gloves lost in the explosion.

"Don't drop the soap."

"Cell we're all going to shiv you in your sleep." Alfreda said handing Dominator a shiv. "Ladies first after all."


Dominator's gloves simply laid on the ground of the destroyed temple before beginning to glow, one red and one blue.

"Looks like The Yellow Coward and the Bitch Patrol are on to us."

"Looks like it Glacier, it appears we must take matters into our own claws."

"How? If you look now, we're gloves, all we can do is fly in these dumb gloves."

"I know just the host to get, I'll find her, you go get Malice, he's gonna love setting off this Time Bomb."

The Gloves then lifted into the air before flying off, leaving behind fiery and ice paths like a meteor and comet respectively.

For those having trouble imaging the Dog of War, here's a picture to help visualize. Without the guy on his back
