Harem In The Intergalactic Apocalypse

I was about to answer his questions, but then Mox suddenly attacked him and knocked him unconscious. I looked at Mox in confusion as he grabbed the man.

"What are you doing?!" I demanded.

"He looks like he might become dangerous," Mox said plainly, and I groaned.

"Put him down! He is the only person that knows anything about this damn thing, and you probably just gave him brain damage, you idiot! Now put him down so I can heal him!" I snapped as Mox finally relented and lowered the man to the ground.

I quickly healed his injuries before he woke up, but when he did, he started screaming and ran towards the door. Gobbles tried to stop him, but he just knocked the creature out of his way and ran out of the room.

"What is wrong with that guy?" Mox asked as we both stared at the door in confusion, and Gobbles made an offended noise before crawling over to us.

"He probably didn't want to get hit by another alien," I muttered as I shook my head before turning back toward Mox. "We need to go after him."

Mox didn't say anything else as we both started running after the man, but it was difficult because there were so many twists and turns. We finally caught up to him in a room that looked like some kind of control center with a lot of monitors and buttons everywhere.

"Stop! We just want to talk!" I shouted as we came into the room, but instead of stopping, the man hit a button on one of the boards, but of course, nothing happened since I hadn't got the power back on yet.

"What the fuck are you people?!" The man demanded as he turned to face us, and I could see that he was shaking in fear.

"We are just like you," I said as I took a step forward, but the man stepped back. "Well, maybe not exactly like you, but I am a human, sort of."

"No! You can't be! You have glowing blue eyes!" The man exclaimed in fear as he backed away from me until he was pressed up against a wall.

"And you have a big head," Gobbles said as he came into the room and walked over to the man, who just stared at him in confusion.

"What is that thing?" The man asked as he pointed at Gobbles, who just shrugged innocently.

"No one really knows," I replied with a shrug. "He just showed up, and we decided to keep him around."

"I see," The man said as he looked at Gobbles for a moment before turning his attention back to me. " So, what do you want from me?" He asked after a moment.

"Just some answers," I replied. "What is your name?"

The man hesitated for a moment before answering my question. "Ethan."

"Good start. Now, what can you tell me about this cube? Are there more of them? How much can you fit in one of them? How do I use it?" I asked, and the man gave me a skeptical look.

"What are you going to use it for?" Ethan asked.

"Store people so everyone doesn't die when I fight three space dragons and a small army of mechs," I explained plainly, and the man narrowed his eyes.

"That sounds ridiculous," Ethan said, and I nodded, fulling in agreement.

"That doesn't make it any less true. The human world that you remember is not the same. Power was taken from this world, and I only just got it back, but I am working on the generator here. The base is empty save for two people that I brought here, and everything left on this floor of the bunker. All the humans have been taken back to my Central Forest," I explained, and Ethan threw up his hands.

"Stop! I can't take any more of this! It is too much!" Ethan exclaimed as he started to pace around the room. "I just want to go home!" He said after a moment, and I frowned.

"I need your help with this and the Shalgoth containment area," I said plainly, and Ethan stopped pacing and turned to look at me with an incredulous expression.

"No! This place is a fucking death trap!" Ethan snapped, and I shook my head.

"The Shalgoth is blocking our way out," I lied. I could open any wall and send him back up, but I needed his help, crazy bastard or not; he really didn't seem that bad. "And the only way to get rid of them is to kill them all. Help me, and you can go home," I said, trying to sound as sincere as possible.

Ethan was quiet for a moment before he finally sighed and nodded his head in agreement. "Fine," he muttered before coming over to stand next to me. "But if we die, it is on your head."

"I mean, we will be dead, so sure. Now, I have heard that this thing makes people go crazy, but you seem somewhat fine to me," I said, and Ethan nodded. 𝘧𝑟𝘦𝒆w𝚎𝙗nov𝘦𝗹.𝐜o𝓶

"I was put in an insane asylum at a young for life because I was so schizophrenic that I tried killing my parents multiple times. The voices used to be so loud that I only whispered for them to stop unless I was doped up on some heavy drugs. Long story short, the government pulled me out and asked if I would be willing to take part in an experiment that might make me go insane. The voices all screamed against it, so I agreed right away. I already wished everything would just be over; so many being crazier might make me enjoy being a nut job. I don't know, but when I was sent in, the voices stopped, and I shook my head like they had never been there. I stood for a long time before leaving, but when I got back, they were still gone," Ethan explained, and I thumbed my chin.

This was interesting, but it would require testing and some brave souls. For now, I placed the cube onto my body and let it absorb inside of me.

"Man, you are a fucking weirdo. The raccoon and bleach demon seem more normal than you are," Ethan said as he shook his head at me, but I gave him the finger. "Ha! The most human thing I have seen you do!"

"Shut up, or I will put you back in the fucking box, fruit loops!" I growled, and the man laughed at me.

"You don't even know how to use the damn thing!" Ethan laughed, but I did a quick scan of the item and then looked at Ethan's wrist when I saw what I was looking for, scanning the device.

"Mouthy shit," I muttered as I created a copy of the device on my own wrist.

"Hey! We can talk about this!" Ethan said, but I activated the transportation beam that was like a pin of light that hit you, but that son of a bitch got me too, and I was sucked down into darkness and then smoothly spit out as my body easily reformed.

Then it hit me, and I was on a smooth black floor five feet from where Ethan was dry heaving. It was like something was trying to dig into my mind, so I popped my Memory Crystal out of my body and into my hand, so it wasn't connected to me, and I forced my mind into it. Suddenly, the pain was gone, and I was in my Memory Crystal.

"What is your reason for coming into my realm? Do you bring demons, or are you looking for some?" A smooth and calm female voice asked as I turned around in my apartment to see Calishora sitting on my bed.

But that was not Calishora.

"What are you?" I asked without moving a muscle. I felt extremely tense around this woman, but I was the one in control here.

"A Queen, once too many, but my people were taken from me, and I was imprisoned here. I am Gian, Queen of the waves, but being in this place has darkened my heart, and I have become darkness, and I break those that wish to come into my prison since I can't leave," Gian explained, and she became a being like the Shalgoth, but I knew this creature was not the same.

"My name is Daniel, and I have become the king of my planet because of my strength and ability to control the entire world. I am still growing, but there is a serious threat that is coming to my world. I am not sure how you got in here, but if you help me, I will do everything in my power to figure out how to get you out of here," I explained after taking a seat beside the woman that burned with blackness like fire.

Gian looked at me for a moment before she started to laugh, and it was an eerie sound. "You are different from what I have seen in other people that come in here," Gian said after a moment as her laughter subsided. "I will help you, but only if you figure out how to let me out of this place." 𝑓𝑟eℯ𝒘𝗲𝑏n𝑜𝚟𝙚𝒍.𝒄o𝐦

"I swear on my honor that I will do everything within my power to free you from this prison," I replied solemnly, and Gian nodded.

"You are the first that I have been able to talk to since I was put in here, but this other creature here was sent in broken, and I took pity on it. It talked to me like it knew I was there, and it even felt like it heard me sometimes with how it spoke. I would like to thank that creature one day in person," Gian said softly, and I nodded.

"I will get on top of this as soon as I get back because it is not going to be an easy task to do this all with just one cube," I said with a sigh, but Gian looked up at me.

"There are over three hundred cubes being stored here in a special lockbox. The creature can teach you how to find things here. Those ones have my people trapped, but they are still armed, so you might want to get me out before entering them," Gian explained, but then I got an idea.

"Are you fully in here?" I asked, and Gian gave me a strange look.

"I think so; why?" She asked, and I smiled.

"I just got you out. You just have to stay in here when I leave," I said, but she shook her head.

"This is only my consciousness, but my body is locked away in the cube itself," Gian said, but I waved her off.

"I can just make you a new body, piece of cake," I said like it was nothing, but she just stared at me.

"And just like that, you can free me from millions of years of being frozen in time in this prison?!" She explained, and I shrugged.

"I'm pretty decent at figuring things out if I have the power to fix them," I chuckled and forced myself out of the crystal and back into my body that had calmed down.
