For the fans who wanted a Guardian's of the Galaxy crossover one shot, I started to do points and it turned out much longer than I anticipated so it'll come out as a new story with the same name. This chapter is a prequel of it.

It's an Tokyo Ghoul x Guardian's of the Galaxy x Avengers crossover.

Prologue

Everything living within the universe has a natural predator and for that universe there was only one species that no one ever wanted to meet.

It didn't matter how strong you were, it didn't matter how much you ran, it didn't even matter if you hide. One encounter with these deadly creatures means the end. Survival is slim and if you do survive... watch your back because they'll never let up on the hunt especially when they are starving.

They lurk within the darkness, their vibrant blood red and black eyes glow as they prowl for unsuspecting victims, their resplendent kagune that can cut through the toughest of steel sways alluringly behind their backs during the hunt.

Ghouls are definitely not the type of creatures you want to mess with. They live on through the death of others, a cruel race that only seek to devour other worlds.

Despite the legends of brutality surrounding the ghouls, not all of it was true. Ghouls were not constant warriors of war rather a lot of them preferred to scavenge for food instead of mass killing a whole race, ghouls did not live underground but built amazing architectures where they lived. Ghouls also loved growing and cultivating different coffee beans to satisfy their cravings.

They lived on their home world, Gaupaillaer, which was a beautiful paradise similar to Midgard.

They were ruled by their king who was noble and benevolent yet harsh. Anyone who disobeyed his law or orders were swiftly executed by his own hand, without mercy.

He assured his race that there was no shame in their existence and that they should be proud of who they were. He was the epitome of strength and bravery to them, everything a king should be. Every battle led by him meant victory, all except one.

The King went up against the Goddess of Death, but neither emerged victorious. They fought for days which turned into weeks which turned into months before finally collapsing from exhaustion. Intrigued by the strength and skill exhibited by the other, the two decided to spare the other from death before promising to meet in the midst of battle once again.

And so they did, again and again and again.

Years rolled by and not once did one emerge victorious. Despite the long and exhaustive spar, the two became good... acquaintances, neither friends nor enemies as they could understand one another at levels others could not.

Both were heirs to the throne, both were Generals of war; they lived and breathed for a fight, both had little to understanding on other emotions like love or personal kindness, they had the same philosophy; Strength is the Key for Victory, if you are Weak then you Deserve to Die or be Conquered, both of their childhood were moulded by their father's; to be only an obedient soldier. 

Eventually, the two had a child together, Princess Karianna of Gaupaillaer and Asgard, the daughter of the first One Eyed King, Bileygr Kaneki, and Princess Hela Odinsdottir.

Gaupaillaer celebrated the birth while Asgard grew terrified, they wanted nothing to do with the parasitic monsters of the universe so Odin made a deal with Bileygr. Gaupaillaer must swear an oath never to visit or invade Asgard and Asgard shall do the same with Gaupaillaer, the only ones excluded from the oath were members of royalty.

But Odin could not contain his distress, his subjects constantly bombarded him with their fear of Ghouls and even the counsel expressed their fear of the girl who was simply just a new-born. Given the chance to grow into an adult, she will certainly become a fierce and unstoppable warrior that could become a danger to Asgard so Odin made his choice and committed an unforgivable sin.

What did he do?

You won't find out until later into the story.

Gaupaillaer - It is Norse for 'to eat gluttonously.' I was going to use a Japanese version, but decided to go for Norse. It make sense since Ghouls are known for their diet of only eating others.

Ghouls - Rather than the predators of humanity, they are the predators of the universe. A species that can only devour other species, kind of like the Boglodites from Men in Black 3. They still can't eat normal foods, plants or animals. They still only need to eat once a month and the rest of the universe thinks of them as monsters even though they're not.
