In the deep dark void was there to figures wrapped in a vast whiteness.
A masculine silhouette and a femini
"It's good to see you again," whispered a deep, gruff, masculine voice.
"En," replied a soft, meek yet commanding voice.
The man was tall, close to 1.8m tall, with black crew cut hair that was white at the temple and streaked horizontally. He was wearing what navy blue Tibetan monk robes with bandaged straps on his wrists and just above the ankles and 10cm (±4 inches) below the knee. He had a long crimson-scarlet cloak with a standing collar long enoung to stretch from just the sole of his shaolin monk martial arts boots to the halfway mark up the back of his hand. The most peculiar thing is that he had this eye-like amulet hanging around his neck that draped down to chest below his chest from a chain. All in all he looked like a... A.... I dunno... A mage? Wizard? Sorcerer? Anyway he had a stoic expression that immediately melted when his gaze landed on the woman.
The woman on the other hand was what we would call mesmerizing. He figure was tall, she was just shy of 1.7m, and lean. Her skin firm yet soft. She had a black full-body leotard as the base of her costume? On top she had golden gladiatrix boots, what appeared to be a golden wrestling title? Over he abdominal area with a glowing golden orb in the center. The leotard emphasized her mighty bosom. She had a thick golden necklace from which a mighty golden ankh hung. Her face would be mesmerizing! You're probably wondering why "would be" rigtt? Well that's because she had a golden Roman-gladiator styled mask-helmet with no openings except for the eyes. The eyes which you could not see – all there was whitish-gold light shining from them. The light was endless but it felt like it could see through your soul.
These two beings could be said to be of the most powerful in most omniverses, they, however, choose to hide their power because their job requires them to look after their designated zones. And due to these designations they are restricted to how much power they can exert and even when the threat is big enough that it requires more power for them them to exert they need to manipulate events and other beings jn order to counter the threat because they are that powerful.
And after more than a millennium's worth of millenia their horrific schedules of saving and protecting and keeping order they found time to see each other again.
"Oh my dear Steve, how I missed you!" sobbed the woman with a quivering voice.
"I've missed you dearly too, my little mother of backwards-magic. Haha!" the man's voice boomed into the deep abyss. The man moved to hold the woman but she slightly resisted. The man gazed into her eyes? Light? Nevermind! The point is he grabbed her firmly and with movements so slow that a snail that could overlap him a couple hundred times but that's irrelevant because it seemed as if space and time were removed from his path and slowly but surely removed the mask-helmet. Showing the women's goddess-shaming face in all her glory. Whom does she look like?... Well that's for another time.
They stood there silently in each other's tender embrace. When the women finally looked up she gazed into the mans storm-gray eyes and spoke, "I need you Steve. Even for people as powerful as us, a thousand's worth of thousands is long a time for us. And that's how long we've been separated! Do you realize that?! Do you?! Do you?!" The woman questioned with an unsteady voice but a firm tone.
The man responded with a gentle tone," of course I do. Did you forget that I also missed you? And I need you too so for the next century we're going to be together every second of every minute of every hour of every day for 36500 days (excluding leap years👀). The woman smiled and kissed him lightly.

And so 90 years past and the man and women were lying in a bed with nothing but a thin silk blanket that separated their name forms from the external environment. The woman got up to got the bathroom to go freshen up before moving to the kitchen in the to make breakfast.
As she got to the bathroom her magic fluctuated distorting the vast whiteness and ripples through the deep black void. The man appeared from nowhere and caught the stumbling woman.. "Are you okay?! The man asked with a voice oozing anxiousness solemnity. The woman gave him a weak smile and closed her eyes. After half a minute she opened them and whispered something.
"What was that? What did you say?" The man struggled to keep calm. The women spoke again – a little louder but still inaudible.
"I still didn't hear you! What is it? Did one your zones get attacked? Destroyed? What is it?" The man was getting frustrated now. The woman in her own frustration due to the man's constant nagging screamed:
"I'M PREGNANT!!!!!!"
"Wait! What?!" the man was stunned and only after a minute of blankness did he recover and looked at her and picked her up screaming, "I'm going to be dad! Woo-hoo!!!!"
He started pampering her even more after this.
____________________________________________
9 centuries later on a planet far far away, was a man that was preaching up and down outside what appeared to be a hospital room. Inside you could hear inhuman screams and another voice saying, "Push! Push! And last one!"
"AAARRRGGGHHHH!!!!!!"
After that last horrific scream a nurse came out and called him in.
Inside were people dressed in greenish turquoise outfits. The man's once panicked expression faded away and soon became one of love and care when his gaze landed on the women and the child, his child, THEIR child, in her arms. She was slowly rocking him back and forth. "What are you name him?" The doctor asked them whilst staring at the couple.
The man gazed at the woman and she stared back as well. She slowly nodded.
"He's shall be: Faust Xenos!"
"It's a lovely name my dear. Hi there little Fausty! Hi there!" The baby stared at his mother with eyes the gleamed with intelligence as she spoke childishly to him.
"Thank you everyone for your assistance but we must be on our way," the man gazed around him and gave a slight nodd and before the doctor and nurses could realise what was happening the couple along with their new born child vanished with the memories of them. Only a feeling of accomplishment inside them.

With the family.
As soon as they arrived both of their expressions turned but melted as they saw their minutes old son trying to imitate their expressions. They gave a little laugh but once again turned solemn.
"This poor child. One who was not supposed to exist. Due to us being his parents he is highly intelligent. I checked now he is as intelligent as a toddler but can't speak due to undeveloped vocal chords he can't speak or else in sure we'd have a full blown conversation with him. By the time he's 5 he's IQ will be over 9000," as the man spoke the women interrupted him,
" But with such a high IQ doesn't that mean–"
"Fear not my lovely. Due to our powers, our domains per say of Protection, Order and the Mystic Arts and Balance he's EQ will match he's IQ. Perfect right?"
"That's a relief, and if it's like that I expect a lot of daughters-in-law and grandkids alright? But for the main problem..."
There was a long and deafening amount silence. After a couple of minutes of this silence the spoke, "We can't raise him or he'd die within a matter of days. We have enemies far more powerful than these foolish readers can imagine."
"I agree with you but what can we do?!" The women replied with all the anxiousness in the unknown universe.
The man responded stoically, "I know this is going to hurt but we need to send him away so he can grow and become strong enough to protect himself and those he loves. But where to? I don't know!"
"I think I do. I say we send him to that wizarding world with all those schools. He could build a foundation there for he was magic and gradually make his way to us."
"Perfect! We could send him to a family of ascendants that live there! This is great but we must not dawdle. We must send him away now before *They* get wind of this."
"En. Let us begin."
They started chanting in indistinguishable languages and this carried on for a good few minutes.
"Be good my boy! Grow up strong and come find us when you're ready! And don't worry about the family you're going to, I've already contacted them. They'll take good care of you!" The man's voice boomed as the Cosmos was warping around the baby boy.
"Be safe my little Fausty! Bring lots of daughters-in-law when you see me! I expect lots of grandkids! You here?! Don't over do it okay? Now we've both left you some things that you'll discover along the way! Now go my liitle boy! Go and become the Greatest there ever was!"
And with that the Cosmos warped completely around the baby boy and he vanished in a flash!
