Beyond Meta Multiverse (Multiverse 2)

Crimson Eternity

Deep in the city of Las Angels, an explosion erupted in the streets as many people ran in all directions, letting out cries of fear as a man dressed in a black jacket and black pants wearing a black mask with red eyes. A black aura outlines his body as tentacles made of a black material manifests from his body as they whipped around. He walks through the streets when a car comes driving down the road. Without flinching, the masked man knocks the car back with his tentacles, sending it flying a few feet right for a dark-haired woman in a black dress holding her baby.

Suddenly a dark-blue figure rushes through the streets so fast it was a mere blur. The car hit the street, it’s windows shattered with glass all around it with the male driver upside down in their seat unconsciousness bruised all over. A hero dressed in a black and blue costume came into view as he set the woman with her baby down about a mile away before running back up to the assailant standing just a few feet away.

“Please, I'd rather avoid innocent citizens dying today” The masked hero responded with a smirk. The villain gave him a frustrated look through his mask, launching all five of his dark tentacles right for him. The arms struck the ground with enough force to crack the concreate it hit, only to find the hero gone.

“Wow, those arms of yours are pretty powerful, too bad they don’t have speed”

“Just who are you?” The masked man responded turning his head to the side but not fully looking at him. The villain morphed all of the hand-like things into one large fist throwing down a fist right for the blue hero with an echoing boom leaving a small crater.

“Aww how rude, normally the villain introduces themselves first then tells me their whole plan” The young hero commented standing inches behind the man. “RRRaagh!” The assailant manifested a 2nd fist, throwing punches head on for his targets. However, the hero easily evaded any coming attack as if they were moving in slow-motion.

Using his immense speed, the hero struck his target 50 times in the hint of a second, sending them staggering backwards like a projectile, impacting a red car parked on the side of the road. “You bastard! Fine, my name is Dark Shadow, I originally came to rob a bank, but I'm good with crushing you here...Come out, Demolition”

A seven-foot buff man in black and silver armor stepped out from an ally facing the blue hero. “Why don’t you tell me your name, I like to know the name of the people I killed” He said in a dark tone cracking his knuckles loudly.

“The names Diamond Swift, you can try to kill me, but from how I see it, you won’t be able to even see me” Taking off at super speed, Diamond moved so fast, it seemed as if time around him had come to a halt, he unleashed a barrage of lightning-fast blows to the armored man’s torso but realized the strikes were having no effect. Just then he found himself get captured by the large brute’s muscular hands. Diamond attempted to escape but even with his powerful speed, it was pointless.

The hero could feel his body beginning to get crushed from the assailant's tightening grip. “Gaah!” A loud crack could be heard as blood ran from the poor hero’s mouth. Just then a figure emerged from the air up in the sky, shielded by the sun’s bright light. Demolition felt a powerful blow to his armored face, cracking the helmet protecting him. Looking down at his victim, he knew it wasn’t Diamond since the hero was locked tight in his grasp and too weak to escape.

“RRRRRggh, I have a hostage, if you don’t come out, I'll crush him instantly!” The masked man watched a few feet behind Demolition as a caped hero dressed in a red and black suit appeared, levitating in the mid of the street about 20 meters away.

“Back off hero, my partner has your precious friend here close to death’s door, if you don’t want to end up like him. I suggest you fly off before I change my mind” The hero crossed his arms, his hazel eyes gleaming in the sunlight. “You must not know who I am”
