When Chthon checked that whatever John said was true, he was in rage. Unmaker was an entity who everybody hated. He was made to bring peace and later turned out to be a horror show for everybody and now one of his champions wanted to bring that back.
He could never let this happen. Normally he never checked the vampires under him, because he never cared. But this time, one of his underlings had crossed the line.
Chthon then proceeded to kill Dracula himself. A being like Unmaker would never stop. After it is done with the normal universe, it would come for his dimension. And he could never let it happen.
"What a rude guy. Didn't even say thank you." John mumbled.
Meanwhile, Miles was confused about what was going on. The person here seemed to know everything and nothing was astonishing for him. It was like he knew everything. He even knew his own name. Miles had never shown his face to anyone. But here this man looked like he knew their boss too.
"Are you called Phoenix?" Miles finally took the courage and asked.
"No. I am John Jameson. Nice to meet you. Now let's wake them up from the slumber." John said as he saw Raven and Reed who became unconscious from all the pain. He waved his hands and these two who had been in sleep slowly opened their eyes.
And like Miles, it took a few seconds of what was going on, and they sat up straight. They had a look of extreme guilt. All the evil things that they had done in the name of Apocalypse caught up to them.
And they didn't like it one bit. Especially Reed. He had been deceiving his own friends, even his wife and trying to research the Unmaker. Reed was recruited a year ago so he had always known about the Flashpoint.
He knew that Flashpoint was necessary after what the Unmaker did and now he was trying to wake that same being up. This notion itself was the stuff of nightmares.
"Back with the memories?" John asked.
Both of them nodded their heads. Though they didn't know who this person was but from the looks of it he had come to stop Apocalypse. And even if he didn't come to stop Apocalypse they would try to stop him. He was too dangerous for this world.
"Time to see your boss." John said.
"He isn't our boss." All three of them spoke up in unison as they really hated the fact they were under Apocalypse's control.
"Yeah.. Yeah... I know. Just kidding. let's go in." John said as he walked to the door. Other 3 followed behind.
They all stepped through a narrow corridor to arrive at a bigger room. There was a throne at the end of the other side of the room and on that throne sat a grey colored humanoid being,
He looked huge compared to the size of a human and his clothes looked as if they belonged to old times.
It was Apocalypse.
The same Apocalypse of the X-men movie. Well, not exactly the same, at least not as shitty as him.
"Yo! man out of time. How have you been living?" John said as he slowly walked up to the throne. The three people behind him had already become vigilant and ready to attack. They felt violated and wanted to beat the shit out of Apocalypse.
But they constrained themselves. The person who helped them hadn't taken any action. And they needed to wait to see how everything pans out.
"You took away my horsemen." Apocalypse said he rested his chin on his hand and looked at the new person who had appeared. He had seen who his four horsemen were taken away from the cameras nearby.
This person seemed to know of the Unmaker too. And this was a huge taboo for him. He needed to know what this new person wanted. If anything could be negotiated he would be up for it. If not, he would kill this new guy.
"These people? They were taken away by force. We aren't living in slavery now." John said.
Apocalypse clenched his fist when John mentioned slavery. This hurt him right in his feels where he remembered his past and him being tortured in the slave camps for years before he led a rebellion.
"What do you want in exchange for these 4 people?" Apocalypse said.
Miles couldn't stop himself and jumped on Apocalypse. He came close to Apocalypse only to be stopped by his telekinesis.
"A milk mouthed kid wants to take revenge. You are far too young to even come close to me, kid." Apocalypse as he smiled devilishly. But his smile stopped in the next second.
He saw that his right hand was gone.
Cut off!! By a sword wave !! The attack was so fast that nobody even saw it coming. Not even Apocalypse. All he saw was his hand lying down. Even the pain hadn't hit him.
