Chapter 11: Alien v Alien

'Mark...we need to talk' Omni-man said, but Invincible didn't care; all he was focused on was blood on his farther hand, some of it dripping out. Shaking his head, he refuses his farther to be a killer.

'No!' Invincible said, throwing the punch and sending Omni-man back. He was then tackled, with Invincible holding and grabbing his head.

'Someone's controlling you! Dad! Dad! Tell me how to stop them!' Invincible yelled, but Omni-man expression didn't change.

'Mark...let my dad go! let him...let him go!' Which Omni-man grabbed his arm.

'Stop' He said, throwing Invincible back.

'It's me, Mark; it's just me' Omni-man looks down at his hands, seeing blood all over them. He let out a deep sigh.

'This isn't how I wanted to do this, but I don't have a choice; it's time for you to see where I really come from' Omni-man began to monologue.

'I am from Viltrum, but it's not the planet I've told you about; we have created a perfect civilization, but it took all of our strength, determination, and courage to get there; in order for our people to reach their full potential, we had to remove the week from our society; It was a long and difficult process, when it was over, our population was cut in half, but what emerged from the ashes was unstoppable; by the time I was born, Viltrum was already the greatest empire in our galaxy; we decided to make it the only empire in our galaxy. Once I was enough, I joined the war effort, It was hard, but I believe in our cause; Some species resisted, of course, but no one could withstand us for long. Soon our empire encompassed thousands of planets, but as our territory grew, our forces were stretched thin and our expansion stopped we needed a better, more efficient way to conquer worlds; our most trusted officers were each given a planet to weaken by themselves, I was one of those lucky few; I couldn't tell your mother why I was here, but that time's come to an end, and now we need to get earth ready to join the Viltrum empire' Omni-man could see Invincible tears flowing down.

'Mark, this is good news we can finally do what we were meant to do and be who we were meant to be'

'You lied to me' Invincible said.

'You couldn't know the truth...not until you had your powers, not until I was sure' Invincible, then look straight at him.

'Sure of what?' He asked.

'Sure, you were a Viltrumite' Invincible, just push him away.

'So if I wasn't, I'd just be one more human conquer!? No, this makes no sense; you love me! You love me, mom! I know you do' Omni-man squinted his eyes.

'Do you have any idea how long we live? The older we get, the slower we age, Viltrumite DNA is so pure that you're nearly full-blooded; you'll live for thousands of years, do you understand what that means? Everyone you know and love will be gone before you even look 30, It's not something I want for you; this isn't your world; it's theirs' Omni-man trued to reason with Invincible.

'But we can help them; we can stop war Eliminate hunger, give them medical technology centuries ahead of what they have now' Invincible was silent.

'We've already been doing it; if it weren't for you and me, this planet would be in flames; all we have to do is welcome Earth into our empire, I do love your mother, but she's more like a pet to me.'

'A pet?' Invincible said, confuse. Omni-man places a hand on his shoulder.

'This is the only way, Mark' Mark smacked his hand away.

'Don't touch me!' Mark yelled, flying away a bit, tears still in his eyes.

'Clam down' Omni-man said.
