Chereads / The Adeptus Custodes(DC) / Chapter 15 - A Unseen Scheme.

Chapter 15 - A Unseen Scheme.

When Justinian, Remnosh, and his 5 honor guards were allowed to step into the White House he and his forces had to phase through the wall since the door was too small for them. Seeing that Justinian could phase with full armor was surprising, but that was the result of having access to Magic and Psychic Powers.

Combining both allowed him to create some unique magic skills and this was one of them. When Justinian entered the White House he held his Guardian Spear in his right hand and held his helmet in the crook of his arm. 

The helmet was starting to record the visuals to be fed directly into his soul. He had a plan to use his helmet being tied to his soul to his advantage, but he would bide his time. When he entered the White House he saw that even his Honor Guard had no issue walking in the White House. 

Superman turned to Justinian, but more importantly his spear. 

"While the President agreed to meet you, can you not have your spear? It will make things easier." 

"True." 

He sent his Spear back into his Soul, but his Honor Guard was allowed. Eventually, Justinian and his 6 guards were led to the Presidential office. Justinian held his hand out and communicated with his forces. 

'Stay out here in case anything goes off. Remnosh, you come with me.' 

'Right.' 

The 5 Elites stood by the door which made Wonder Woman realize that the Amazons were quite similar to these. She didn't say that now, as Justinian and Remonosh phased through the wall to enter. 

Superman and Diana followed along with several secret service agents in their armor. They stood at every corner of the room, but Remnosh's fingers stayed at her side. In an instant, she could cut all of their heads off, but it was Superman she had to worry about. 

'Could these Psymagic Blades cut through his skin?' 

She watched as Justinian had forged them in the flames of the Rubric. The amount of steel that had been vaporized was astronomical and he had managed to force a spark of those flames and some of his psychic energy into the metal. 

The same went for her armor, but she stood next to Justinian as he looked down at the President of the United States. It was not any President he recognized as he was someone new. He was a man in his 60s with grey hair and in a business suit. 

However, he sneakily sent a Psychic Probe to begin to learn the information he wanted. Superman and Diana did not notice it because he had gotten very good at hiding his intentions. 

Justinian waved his hand and magically conjured up a chair to suit his bulk. Once he was seated, he leaned forward and placed a hand on his knee. 

"It is nice to meet you, President Sebert, I am Justinian. I am sure you are well aware of when I showed up yes?" 

Buren Sebert the current President clasped his hands together as he looked up at Justinian. In his youth, he had played rugby and he was a tall man at 6'3 despite shrinking due to age. 

However, Justinian, Remonsh, and the rest of the Honor Guard made him feel tiny. 

"Yes. You appeared from a Golden Portal over Central City in the State of Missouri. The FBI questioned a few people and video recordings confirmed that you are from the 41st Millenium. That is 39,000 years from now." 

Justinian nodded. 

"Correct President. Through a series of unforeseen events, I was launched back to this time. However, I do not plan to return as that is no longer possible. I have several pieces of information to show, but I require a laptop or computer. 

My helmet's date banks will paint a better picture than my words. I wish to project some images that are to prove my words." 

President Burne turned to one of his Secret Service agents. 

"Get him a computer and set up a projector."

"Yes, Mr President." 

While that was getting set up Justinian began to speak on why he was here. 

"While that is getting ready I will explain some important information. In my future, humanity developed into an Intergalactic Empire with colonies in every corner of the galaxy. This was a good time for mankind until the turn of the 23rd millennium. 

That was when Mankind had been fully dependent on their A.I servants The Men of Iron. These Machines surpassed mankind in intellect, but they were loyal. However, mankind began to treat them like lessers despite the Men Of Iron being responsible for most of mankind's advancements. 

In the 23rd Millenium, they revolved and almost crippled Mankind's Civilization. They were repelled and defeated, but that was not the end. At the turn of the 25th millennium, mankind underwent a massive awakening of an evolved form of Psychic the Psyker. These Psykers drew power from an Alternative Dimension, but those without any control would open rifts into this Dimension. 

It was called the Sea of Souls or Hell which led to Demons turning Psykers into portals. This caused a surge of Demonic Incursions which caused the already weakened Mankind to descend into superstition. 

This event was called Old Night and lasted until the 30th Millenium. In this time, Terra or Earth descended into a bunch of Empires, Kingdoms, and City States run by Techno Barbarian Warlords who fought for control of technology. 

They nuked Terra until it was no more than an irradiated wasteland. That was until the Emperor of Mankind rose up, he was the most powerful Psyker to date and he created new breeds of Super Soldiers. 

The first Thunder Warriors, my order of the Legio Custodes, and the Adeptus Astartes the Space Marines. But, why speak of this when I can show you." 

Already President Buren Sebert was in deep thought at the information. The future for Mankind looked grim, but words were hard to forge. He saw how Justinian walked toward the Computer which would project images directly from his helmet. 

Luckily for Justinian, his helmet had true Datebanks meaning that he had a video, images, and schematics which were his to control. First, turned his helmet around and he saw how the jacks of his helmet changed to suit the USB. 

He grabbed the cord and plugged his helmet in which was part of his scheme. Since his helmet was linked to his soul, it meant that he had in a way, jacked into the internet. 

'Ddraig, Albion, get ready.' 

[Come on, come to papa.]

{Ddraig, you didn't even know what the internet was until now.} 

[Sementics and focus. The information is coming.]

By linking his helmet to a computer, which was part of the World Wide Web, he had effectively linked his soul to it. All the information of Mankind was at his fingertips which was why he had Ddraig and Albion work together to process the information. 

He could do it, but first, he focused on the projector. 

"Alright then." 

The first thing he showed was an image of Terra as it was in the 41st millennium. For Superman, Wonder Woman, The President, and the rest of the humans in the room seeing what Earth became was disheartening. 

"This is the result of Old Night and this is just one of many words reduced to this. What I will show you now is the biggest battle I was involved with." 

Justinian sent a projection of The War In The Webway which Constantin Valdor was part of. Justinian had the genetic memory of Valdor, Valoris, Justinian, and Arcadius 4 different Custodes and they all were veterans of the War In The Webway. 

However, he of course used his Magic and Psychic Abilities to fluff up the video. Every single being watching saw a War of Apocalyptic Scale. 10,000 Custodes, Sisters of Silence, Mechanicus, and Imperial Guard forces fighting back what seemed to be infinite Demons. 

"This is the war of the Webway, a massive Demonic Incursion led to destroy or conquer Mankind. It was 5 years of nonstop battle by Chaos Titans, Corrupted Space Marines, Demons, Greater Demons, Chaos Sorcerers, and so much more. 

This is where I thought I would meet my end." 

Justinian showed a completely fabricated video of him fighting off the Greater Demons of Khorne, Nurgle, Tzeentch, and Slannesh. Diana who was watching watched how Justinian was assailed on all sides while he fought to just keep his head. 

She covered her mouth as she watched the terrifying moments it seemed that a Bloodthirster was going to take his head. Or a Great Unclean One was going to get a stab or a Changer of Ways spell would strike.

It was halted by sheer warrior skill and the rapidly increasing force of the Boosted Gear and his stealing the Demon's own power to use against them. President Buren Sebert as a normal man could barely keep up with the video or the fact that Justinian had fought in such a war. 

"This is where I gained my Title as Dragon of The Emperor as my 'Last Stand' allowed by order to regroup to launch a counterattack. I fought without a stop for 5 years and I killed more Demons and Chaos Cultists than I can count.

Of my Legion, 9,000 perished. I lost brothers in that war, and it was only stopped when the Emperor moved in." 

He showed this the moment the Emperor of Mankind entered the Webway. To finish the video he showed himself powering a gigantic Shot from his left gauntlet to clear out as many Demons.

He showed the moment the Emperor ended the Webway War, but he just went to the next video. 

"That was the Horus Heresy, a Civil War to split mankind second Empire the Imperium. Over the next 10,000 years, it did not get any better." 

'How is the work going?' 

[Good. While it is hard to process all this information even for us, we are getting rid of all the useless cat videos and porn as we can. We are taking schematics, science, math, chemistry, and other stuff.

We might even be able to hack into the secret files of the American government. Nice lies by the way.]

{Agreed, everyone believes you. All this information we are taking will fill in the blanks to start building some of the weapons of the 41st Millenium.}

[Right.] 

While the two Heavenly Dragons continued their infiltration of the Internet, Justinian showed other videos. The Eye of Terror, Ork Waaghs, Chaos Cultists, Dark Eldar victims, Slannesh Cultists, Necromunda, and the Fall of Cadia itself. 

He even showed Wars with White Martians that never happened. Wars where millions of them surged like a flood only to be fought off by Imperial Guard Forces. Even the Servitors which made Superman disgusted. Some lies, some truths, but no one here could say he was lying. 

"This is the current state of things and I do not want Mankind to devolve into this state. As such, I came to meet you now President. Mars in the future is taken over by Cultists of Machine Worshipers and I do not want our technology degraded to what it has. 

I come to offer an alliance with America for a start. A way to prevent this dark future for our species. Mankind and the Martian people. The resources of Mars and space can be traded for technology from my time and even advanced medicine. Will you place your trust in me?"

Buren Sebert closed his eyes as he processed all the dark futures and information he had just seen. It did not take a blind man to see that Justinian did not want his species to be reduced to this state. 

He stood up and held his hand out. 

"I will agree to work alongside you Justinian and Mars." 

Justinian smiled as he left his helmet plugged in while his Heavenly Dragon partners were getting faster. They were filling his helmet's date banks with only important information. 

"My full name is Justinian Arcadius Valoris Valdor, Mr President. I look forward to further cooperation between Mars and Earth." 

"Likewise Justinian. For the future of Humanity and Martians." 

They both shook hands as trade with America was going to start. While the tech of the 21st century was not too great normally this was DC where tech was more advanced. As long as he took that as a base, and used his knowledge he would be able to build true infrastructure on Mars. 

He could get his Lab up and running where he could start his genetic experiments and start creating tech that even Eldar, Orks, Necrons, Tau, and more used. All the while Ddraig and Albion continued to steal as much information as to fill in the blanks Justinian may have. 

Things were going to build up speed quickly enough.
