In a strange and boundless space, where various colors adorned the scenery and infinite lights shimmered at immeasurable distances.
There stood a gigantic mansion built upon an enormous piece of land, with several bright minerals exposed below, giving the place a fantastic appearance.
The piece of land was enclosed by a translucent white barrier, allowing only the outlines of the construction to be observed.
Stepping inside the barrier made its appearance clear and distinct.
The mansion was primarily made of a golden material that emitted a supernatural light, combined with various other materials that gave it a mythical and luxurious touch. Only the white brick road leading to the entrance spanned the extension of a solar system.
The brick walls surrounding the mansion measured 2 light-years in height, and the gate, made of an unknown silver material, glowed with several mysterious runes.
In the center of the gigantic garden, surrounded by trees that could easily reach space if placed on planet Earth, there was a fountain that spouted water seeming to contain entire galaxies in a single drop.
Beside it, two gigantic humanoid dragons sat at a table, sipping tea made from the mysterious water and herbs that shimmered in various colors.
The scales of a dragon shimmered black like the very void itself, with some purple and red lines carrying an aura of destruction and death, adorning its body and wings that appeared capable of covering an entire universe, making its appearance even more fantastical, like an incomparable divine creation.
The other dragon, on the other hand, displays scales that gleam with a silvery hue, evoking a sense of mystery, with green and white lines carrying an aura of creation and vitality, inspiring those who witness such beauty to worship this being.
In a deep, velvety, masculine voice, the black dragon spoke, "Darling, the tea is exquisite." He took a sip, reclining in his chair and closing his eyes to savor the divine flavor.
In response, a beautiful, soft, and mature feminine voice sounded from the silver dragon, "I was fortunate to find these tea leaves in an independent space while wandering through the universes of the druid sector." She said, pouring another cup for both of them.
Only the voices of the creatures seemed to distort reality, causing the ground, reinforced with numerous runes, to vibrate.
"Mama! I want some too!" Suddenly, interrupting the divine scene's harmony, a boy's voice came from the table—precisely from a large white egg next to the teapot.
"You're still just an egg, my boy. Let your father enjoy this drink in your place. BAHAHA!" The black dragon teased, playfully poking the egg before taking a sip and releasing a booming laugh that distorted space.
"Zephyrion! Don't mind him, my son. Soon, you will hatch and get to try many new things. I'll make this old bag of bones work hard to find new delicacies for you." The mother immediately reprimanded him while consoling the curious and adventurous son.
"In fact, I learned something interesting recently, and I'll show you!" The boy's voice sounded again, this time animated and eager.
"Grrrr..." A soft growl came from the egg when suddenly...
POP
A small puff of smoke emerged, quickly dissipating thanks to the parents' breath, who, for a moment, felt their primordial souls leave their bodies.
"Look at me! Hahaha!" The transformation surprised them both.
The egg now somehow had eyes and a mouth, like a character straight out of a cartoon. Below the egg, a small energy figure with arms and legs appeared.
"Hmm, impressive. That's my son! You're using that thing called... Celestia, what was the name again?" The father inspected the figure closely, fascinated by the various embedded runes and formations.
"Toon Force," the mother quickly replied, taking her son from her husband's claws before he accidentally breaks the egg.
"Hahaha!" The little egg was now having fun, running in its father's claws with its new orange energy body.
Seeing their son in this comical form, both parents burst into laughter.
...
"THIS IS SO GOOD!!!" The egg exclaimed with each sip its mother gave it from a cup half its size.
"YAWN I'm full, Mom!" The satisfied egg returned to its normal form, wanting to take a nap.
"I can't wait to venture through the multiverse with our son!" Zephyrion said, moving his chair closer to Celestia, who nestled against his chest.
Opening her enormous, sharp-toothed jaws, Celestia yawned.
"YAWN After this scare he gave us, I'm tired." She said, closing her eyes.
Seeing Celestia closing her eyes, Zephyrion also decided to rest.
...
Day and night alternated in this mansion, where they had their own sun and moon.
After millions of years, the couple was still sleeping peacefully in the garden, with a large egg on the table in front of them.
Imperceptibly, during all this time, a tiny speck of dust floated toward the mansion, undetectable by anyone.
It passed through the barrier and the gate as if they didn't exist, crossing the mansion until it reached the garden. As if drawn to something, it slowly moved toward the egg on the table.
When it was a few meters from the table, suddenly space felt heavy, and time seemed to freeze, causing the dust to halt.
"Mama, Papa, is this the legendary dust from the divine realm and the mortal realm?" The egg was brought to life, walking closer to the tiny particle but wary of touching it due to sensing danger.
The couple opened their eyes, emitting an unprecedented pressure that made the entire space-time around the mansion visibly tremble.
The family seemed to awaken as they sensed something approaching the egg, bypassing their barriers and senses.
"No, my son. There shouldn't be even a speck of dust here." Zephyrion extended his claw, grabbing the particle and seeing various runes and control formations inscribed within.
"Then what is it?" The egg backed away from the particle, picking up on his father's tone.
"My dear, are you sure I'm not hallucinating? I see primordial and divine-level runes and formations of mind control, domestication, and enslavement?" Celestia's voice turned icy, and her draconic eyes began to radiate power as her mood changed.
"No." Zephyrion disintegrated the particle with his powers, then rose with a roar.
"WHO DARES TO TRY AND ENSLAVE OUR SON UNDER OUR VERY NOSES!!!" His roar filled with hatred and anger resounded through an immeasurable space, reaching almost all nearby factions.
"Oh my, they even tried to control me with this level of spells and formations." The great egg looked disdainful, twisting his mouth.
Before her husband could fly off to find the culprits, Celestia stopped him.
"And what if this is their Plan B and C? We need to protect our little one. If they can bypass our senses, they might have other methods to take him hostage." Heeding his wife's words, Zephyrion quickly regained control, feeling an anger a million times stronger than his.
"Relax, Mama, I can defend myself. In the worst case, I'm good at hide-and-seek!" The egg reassured his mother, showing bravery, despite never having been apart from them since his existence began.
"That's my boy! Let's proceed with the plan before they try something else." The father said, before bursting into laughter.
The mother smiled, happy yet sad, seeing her son put up a strong front. After all, he had never been separated from them since he came into being.
The black dragon extended his claw, delving it into the storage space and pulling out a small golden ball. After inspecting all the rune systems and formations, he said, "First, let your mother work for a moment before we send you through the void in this thing."
Celestia nodded, and two silver magic circles filled with rotating runes appeared in each of her golden eyes.
In an instant, all possible outcomes appeared before her eyes.
"Darling! I found an anomalous thread for our son!!! HURRY NOW!" Suddenly, she became frantic.
Hearing his wife, Zephyrion's purple eyes shone brightly.
"What is it?" The egg started to ask but was interrupted as his father grabbed him, placing him inside the ball, which promptly took off at unimaginable speed.
Even faster than the two dragons.
"Did you pass on the information not to get angry at us?" Celestia asked, concerned about the quickness with which they sent their son away.
"Of course! Now we have many beings to annihilate." Zephyrion's teeth began to grow, and he emitted a deep growl.
Celestia's eyes emanated a killing intent so intense that plants in the garden began to die, only to recover through the formations.
The two jumped and, in an instant, crossed the mansion's barrier.
In the void, two humanoid dragons appeared, their scales forming armor with neon lights running through them, giving them a technological appearance.
Suddenly, they both began to shine, transforming into their full beastly forms.
Within seconds, two Western dragons each with two gigantic wings emerged.
They appeared nearly identical, their scales and lines adorning them differing only in color.
And Celestia's horns emanated a silver glow, forming a main structure that branched out into smaller ones.
Anyone with even a basic understanding of time would recognize that they resembled timelines.
Zephyrion's horns were not branched but thick, curving out and approaching each other at the tips.
ROAR ROAR
Two extremely furious roars echoed.
The gods, immortals, supreme mages, and various other beings at the pinnacle of the multiverse, new and old, would remember that even at the top, there were beings not to be provoked. And because of the mistakes of a few, everyone pays the price.
