Chapter 22 "It's a pleasure to meet you, Lilandra," Jean said as she shook the Shi'ar female's hand. "And you as well, Jean," Lilandra replied. "Harry has told me much about you." "Oh?" Jean asked with a raised eyebrow at Harry.
"Nothing too personal," Lilandra assured. "It's just...easy to tell he is very much in love with you. I must confess this isn't how I pictured meeting my boyfriend's other girlfriend. And that's a statement I never dreamed of giving."
"Relax, Lilandra. I was just teasing. I trust Harry completely," Jean said. "Please take a seat."
Harry, Lilandra, and Jean were sitting in the communal sitting room shared between Harry and his many lovers at the Institute. Lilandra sat across from Jean and despite the fact that Lilandra was older than the redhead and a princess of a multi-galaxy empire, Lilandra still felt like the less powerful of the two. The redhead had bonded with the Phoenix, an entity of power beyond imagining. On top of that Jean was stunningly beautiful.
"So did the blood tests all check out?" Harry asked.
Lilandra had been given a sample of Jean's blood to study. But Harry had placed a spell on the blood which allowed him to track it at all times and destroy it if used for any purpose either Jean or Harry would find distasteful. Harry had actually eliminated any trace of the influence Harry's seed had on Jean's physique so nobody would be able to figure out how she was able to survive bonding with Phoenix.
"Actually...everything happened just like you hinted at," Lilandra admitted. "I gave a portion of the blood sample to our lead scientist. But at the same time I had another scientist verify the results. Our lead scientist in our Earth facility reported that Jean wasn't hosting the Phoenix while the independent verification confirmed she was. It seems the Hellfire Club is trying to come back. I'm monitoring our lead scientist and anyone he is connected to nefariously to see who is involved. We want to root their insanity and greed out of our operations on Earth. How did you know?"
"I find it is best not to ask him," Jean said. "Sometimes he will just get a hunch and follow it. With his technology once he investigates something he generally finds out what he wants to know."
"But where do the hunches come from?" Lilandra queried.
"Harry has let us study his culture from his old universe...those of his mates who he trusts most intimately... and we have noticed something in the culture. Particularly powerful wizards and witches always seem to get hunches like Harry," Jean explained.
"Though not all followed their hunches," Harry interjected. "I once heard a theory that all of my kind had some subconscious form of Divination but only the most powerful are able to get anything useful from the ability. Our subconscious filters the infinite possible futures into most probable outcomes."
"Fascinating," Lilandra said. "Isn't he just," Jean replied with a smirk. "Every day I spend with you I learn something new." "Let's just hope you feel that way after a million years," Harry replied. Jean and Lilandra spent quite a bit of time chatting and getting to know one another.
The X-Men materialized on top of a skyscraper in Cleveland to see a group of Friends of Humanity radicals attacking a hospital which had pledged to provide medical care for young mutants who couldn't afford their own care.
"How dare you interfere with the business of the Friends of Humanity," Rick Thompson shouted. Thompson was the leader of the Friends of Humanity attack force and the only radical not wearing a mask. "We are trying to right a great wrong. Open fire, men. Let's slaughter these gene-jokes."
Jean held up a telekinetic shield to block the enemy attacks. Harry held Jean's hand and layered an arcane energy field into the backside of her TK-shield which allowed the attacks of the X-Men to pass through the TK-shield unstopped.
"This is almost too easy," Bobby declared. "Bobby, you know better," Rogue chastised.
As if Bobby's statement had angered fate, no less than four of the radicals plus Rick Thompson screamed in agony simultaneously. The screaming radicals transformed. Rick Thompson was transformed into a hulk- sized brute of muscle and anger. Another one of the radicals, Bob Selmy, was able to project purple energy blasts from his arms. The other powers varied. Jean grunted as Thompson's first punch hit her TK-shield. She grunted again when the second punch came and a crack developed in her shield.
370
"This is ridiculous," Ororo sent to Harry and his girlfriends. "There is no way five mutants could develop simultaneously from such a small population."
"I completely agree, lover," Harry replied. "I do believe there is a foreign power at work here. Lily is already tracing the source."
"What do I do about the shield?" Jean asked as more cracks developed.
"Send the shards into one of the opponents. We will engage as a team," Harry directed.
Jean sent the shards of her TK-shield ripping into one of the radicals and tore the radical to shreds. Harry physically engaged with Thompson. While it was clear Thompson was strong it was also quite clear that Thompson was very unskilled in using that strength. Harry didn't have much trouble distracting Thompson while keeping an eye on the fight around him.
"Harry...it would appear Elliott is the one who enhanced the radicals," Lily informed her creator. "Is he doing it consciously?" Harry questioned.
"It does not appear so. His powers are reacting to his desires," Lily explained. "I do believe he will figure out something is up soon. He isn't unintelligent."
The fight swiftly wound down as the X-Men defeated their opponents one by one. The X-Men were much better trained in their super-human abilities in no small part thanks to Harry's influence. Harry webbed up Thompson and delivered a blow that knocked Thompson out cold.
"You were looking pretty good out there, Elliott," Kitty complimented Elliott.
Harry's gaze zeroed in suspiciously on his girlfriend at that comment. He reached out through the intimate connection he had developed with Kitty and felt the foreign influence upon her being. Harry dissipated the influence and mentally showed her what was happening. Elliott had desired Kitty and his powers had responded to make her flirt with him. Kitty was repulsed but had learned enough to not immediately react verbally. This exchange all occurred in a matter of moments.
"Thanks, Kitty," Elliott said. "You looked pretty damn good yourself."
Then Harry activated his teleportation system.
Elliott glanced around and found himself sitting in a room with a chair facing Harry. There was nothing else in the room but Harry and the two chairs they were sitting within. There were no windows. The only source of light seemed to be a half dome of light situated in each of the four corners of the room at the ceiling intersection with the walls.
"This isn't Earth," Harry announced. "Not Earth?!" Elliott said with surprise. "Where are we?"
"I have many facilities I maintain off-world in this universe. I brought you here Elliott because your powers are growing out of control," Harry said. "Do you know what I am talking about?"
371
Elliott was quiet for several moments before he said, "Just now with Kitty...I was thinking about how attractive she was. And then it was almost like she was flirting with me."
"Yes," Harry confirmed. "So you are saying I made her do that?" Elliott clarified.
"You heavily influenced her with your abilities, yes," Harry confirmed. Elliott shuddered in revulsion.
"Thank you for pulling me out of there," Elliott said. "Can you teach me to control my abilities so that it doesn't happen again?"
"Yes," Harry confirmed. "But it will take hard work and years." "I can wait," Elliott said.
"Yes you can," Harry agreed. "You are now immortal given the nature of your abilities. You will only age if you want to once you hit a certain maturity level."
Elliott appeared stunned at this revelation and rightfully so. "Oh wow," Elliott said. "Well I don't want to think of that right now. When do we start my training?" "After I show you around and you've had a chance to rest up," Harry answered. "Follow me."
The two men left the room and stepped out into a complex surrounded by a super-strong clear polymer. The view Elliott beheld was of a planet with thick colorful vegetation not far off from the complex. The view was truly alien. Elliott thought that if nothing else things wouldn't be boring.
Back at the Institute
"Where did you take Elliott?" Scott asked Harry curiously after Elliott disappeared via the transporter network.
There was no accusation in Scott's tone.
"Elliott has been subconsciously manipulating reality without noticing it. I just caught on to what he was doing and have taken him somewhere secluded to train," Harry explained.
"What has he been manipulating?" Colossus questioned. "That really isn't important," Jean said. "His abilities just need refinement in isolation."
"Fair enough," Bobby agreed. "Though the last event he manipulated seems pretty obvious now that you pointed out he did it. Those Friends of Humanity goons going x-gene altogether like that was way too out there."
"Bobby, you are learning to observe and use that frozen brain of yours. I'm surprised," Rogue teased.
372
Bobby stuck his tongue out at Rogue before he left to be about his business. The others grinned at Bobby's expense before breaking up to do the same. Only Harry's girlfriends knew where Elliott had been taken.
"You look troubled, my friend," Harry told Colossus as Harry encountered the Russian in the hallway of the Institute. "What's up?"
"I just had a very troubling encounter with Kurt," Colossus replied with a distracted expression.
"Define troubling," Harry prompted.
"He almost ran into me walking with a backpack. When I attempted to simply ask him where he was going he treated me with hostility and told me he had nothing to say to me. I warned him not to treat me so poorly because my patience was wearing thin. At that point he shouted at me that he had had enough while leaping at me. He teleported away moments before he would have reached me," Colossus explained.
"So this has been going on for some time now?" Harry questioned.
"Yes," Colossus confirmed.
"Do you have a suspicion why?" Harry questioned.
Colossus was hesitant to respond for several moments but finally admitted, "I think it started when Kurt discovered I am gay."
Harry was thoughtful for a short while.
"Ok...I feel pretty confident that Kurt's new relationship with you is due to his highly religious background. He won't be the last religious person you encounter as a homosexual who despises you for being gay. You need to respect his right to his beliefs. And he needs to respect your right to yours. I am guessing that the backpack means he intends to leave the Institute. If he does return do you think you can still work with him on the team if his future interactions with you are cordial but not friendly?" Harry asked.
"I am uncertain," Colossus replied. "I can only try and see."
"That is all anyone can ask. Perhaps with time Kurt's feelings may change," Harry suggested. "Treat him cordially and if he comes back I will ask him to do the same in his interactions with you."
"Thank you, Harry. Talking with you always makes me feel better. You are religious yet you don't treat me any differently than before," Colossus said.
"Yes...but I don't follow the bible word for word. Some people do take the bible or their other holy books word for word. Above all else I respect the rights of others to believe what they want to believe," Harry replied.
Harry and Colossus parted company. "Kurt is not currently in the Institute. Do you wish me to guide you to him?" Lily asked her creator.
373
"Not at this time," Harry said as he entered his personal gym he shared with his girlfriends. "We'll give him some time to cool down."
Harry was treated to the sight of Jean warming up doing an abdominal workout. Harry so loved to watch his fiery-haired lover work out her abs. Ororo was working out next to Jean. Ororo was bent over doing an exercise that worked her gluts and thigh muscles.
"Hello, handsome," Jean purred at Harry with a smirk. "You sensed me coming," Harry replied which caused the two ladies to laugh. They had arranged themselves to present him with an enticing view. "Oh...you haven't cum yet," Jean assured. "But you will." Harry had a very pleasant workout.
Harry and Susan arrived in the mall where Sue and Reed had been shopping moments after the incident had broken out. Harry had cloaked probes tracking all the members of the Fantastic Four. Susan had been reading when Harry had alerted her to something being up so hadn't been terribly busy. The source of the trouble was readily apparent as people ran from one department store in particular. Harry and Susan were invisible. Sue and Reed were observed running into the department store.
"Be advised...I am detecting travel between planes within this universe," Lily informed Harry. "The plane I am now exploring is vast but was artificially created."
Harry telepathically relayed this news to Susan. "Why are you using the term plane instead of dimension?" Susan asked.
"Because a plane isn't quite the same as a dimension," Harry replied. "Planes are very similar but the laws of their physics are alterable by the creator. More often than not planes are artificially created but not always. I have occasionally heard of planes that seemed to be natural or accidental. The mathematics that describe the properties of planes are complex. I can define them later if you would like."
"I would like that," Susan agreed.
The scene that greeted Harry and Susan was definitely an alien sight. Several beings sat upon red floating aircrafts of some sort that looked like hovering motorcycles. One male being was humanoid and green like a plant and called Vykni. Another female alien was also humanoid but blue and called Threshold. A massive furred creature was called Magnificent Beast. A pink female alien composed of malleable energy was called Dreamcatcher. A male who looked relatively human wore green armor and was called Grail Fountain. An unconscious alien male known as Tesseract was secured to one of the parts of the air cycle. It was then that Harry realized the group's transportation, the red air cycle, was alive and called Sky-Eater. Harry sensed another powerful presence but couldn't immediately see it. The group was called Seed Nineteen.
"We did it! No Ravens and No Bombarders. We got away clean! I told you there was a world here," Magnificent Beast declared.
Sue and Reed were hiding invisible just around the edge of the entrance to the department store observing the
374
scene.
"But why did we even come this way, Seed?" Threshold asked as she held a small glowing crystalline entity floating above her outstretched palms. Harry sensed a higher form of communication pass between the powerful entity he had sensed, Seed, and Threshold. "Explain what you mean by higher priorities."
"We didn't get away clean, not even close," Grail Fountain said while addressing Threshold and staring at a hologram his armor was projecting. "Tesseract is unconscious and Sky-Eater is hurt, deep hurt."
"No, Fountain," Beast cried. "You must help him or I will never pilot another air bike again if Sky Eater dies."
"Can you save him?" Threshold questioned. "Truth, he's hearing the Call, Thresh," Fountain replied. "The call of The All." "Then help him to die," Thresh ordered.
At that point a security guard did a really stupid thing by running up and telling the members of Seed Nineteen to surrender. Unfortunately Seed Nineteen were soldiers bread in the middle of a war unable to understand the guard. Harry and Susan's bio-net AIs were translating for them.
Seed translated for her unit. Still Threshold as the leader of Seed Nineteen and her unit thought the humans around them were potential enemies. The confrontation escalated to gunfire. Thresh absorbed the bullets. Vykni possessed abilities very similar to Gwen's mutant abilities and summoned up a golem comprised of the debris from Seed Nineteen's arrival. It was at that point that Sue and Reed decided to intervene. As the golem moved for the security guard, Bob Tedson, Sue encased Bob in a force-field. Reed crushed the golem in half like a snake.
"Ravens?" Vykni questioned.
"Or powered indigenes," Thresh said. "Seed is too excited to speak sense. The girl is a Weaver while the other is trans-fleshed. Dreamcatcher," Thresh prompted.
The pink energy being flew at Sue.
"No problem," Dreamcatcher declared. "If her fields are permeable to light, or ideas, or emotions, they are permeable to me."
At the same time Threshold used the bullets she had absorbed to down Reed. Harry made sure both Reed and Sue were alright. Both were.
"Don't you just love when people monologue and reveal their weaknesses," Susan sent to her boyfriend referring to Dreamcatcher.
"Yes...you remember how to make your shield impermeable to telepathy like we practiced?" Harry questioned.
"Yes," Susan confirmed. "Nice work, Thresh," Fountain complimented his leader.
375
"Was it? These were seedling warriors just like us. It does not make me happy to bring them to harvest," Threshold said.
The sound of sirens was heard in the distance approaching. "We have to get Tesseract back to Halcyon alive," Threshold said. "Dream, cloak us." "But Sky-Eater," Dreamcatcher began to protest. "Do it," Threshold overrode Dreamcatcher. "I pull rank." "Yes Threshold. I'm sorry," Dreamcatcher said the last to Sky-Eater.
Then Dreamcatcher shifted around her teammates causing their forms to blur into that of humans. Seed Nineteen left. Harry tracked them with cloaked probes. Seed Nineteen had left behind Sky-Eater. Seed had also bounced out of a pouch that was part of Threshold's body. Part of the military contingent assigned to liaise with the Fantastic Four showed up shortly after led by Lieutenant Lumpkin. Sky-Eater and Seed were taken back to the Baxter Building.
It didn't take long for Seed Nineteen to realize that Seed had been lost and to come after her. Beast, Fountain, and Thresh took on the guise of children with Dream's help as they rode up towards the top of the Baxter Building in an elevator after having bypassed security downstairs.
Ben and Johnny were the two members off the FF set to face off against Beast, Fountain, and Thresh.
"Oh god," Johnny screamed. "I can't control my powers. I'm going to go nova!"
Ben punched a hole in the wall and directed, "Get outside."
Johnny leapt out through the hole and flew off while Ben turned back to face the trio who had dropped the act of being children.
"For Tesseract, for the World-Tree, for the All," Beast shouted as he rushed forward and delivered a powerful uppercut to Ben's chin that sent the stone-man hurtling back into a wall.
Ben didn't waste time on verbal responses. He picked himself up and rushed at his opponent. Ben's return uppercut was just as powerful sending Beast hurtling through a wall.
"You may be able to hit hard but I doubt you can take what I wield. I am able to harness any weapon ever granted to a living being," Beast boasted as claws lengthened out of his fingertips as he rushed Ben.
Harry had put Ben and the other FF members through some minor training though. Ben deflected Beast's first strike with a forearm and ducked under the second slash. Ben took Beast to the ground using Ben's own superior weight to take Beast down. The claws tore at Ben's back for a moment but the angle was no longer right for a penetrating jab. But even those shallow cuts soon had Ben unable to move. Beast pushed Ben off and got up.
"Neurotoxin?" Thresh said questioningly.
376
"Yes. But that won't finish him. His physiology is resilient. I could finish him but it would take time," Beast replied.
"Leave him," Thresh commanded. "He is not our objective and your neurotoxin will take him out of the fight."
Harry and Susan watched as Dream took her three teammates invisible before the Seed Nineteen unit entered the lab where Sue was working with her father on Sky-Eater. Reed was in another lab working with Seed. Sue sensed the attack coming in time to shield against the laser energy sent by Thresh.
"She sensed us before we became visible," Fountain exclaimed disbelievingly.
"She is a Weaver," Thresh pointed out. "I am out of the laser energy I absorbed downstairs. She is yours Dream."
Dream rushed forward and stuck her hand in Sue's head. "Oh no," Dream said moments later. "We've made a terrible mistake. We are fighting the wrong people."
"It's about time they realized that," Susan sent. At the same time the bio-net AI's of Harry and Susan alerted them to the arrival of another group of travelers from the same plane Seed Nineteen had come from. "Oh shit...I never envisioned a form of life made out of that."
"Live long enough and you'll realize life takes an infinitely diverse number of forms," Harry replied.
They were speaking of the being made of neutron star core matter contained within a force-field. Harry immediately initiated an evacuation protocol he had set in place within his teleportation system. All living beings within a very large radius were immediately teleported away. Those within sight of the inter-planar travelers were replaced with very convincing holograms each of which was independently generated by probes the size of a marble. His intervention was just in time too because a moment later the neutron-being unleashed a blast of energy that would have killed hundreds if not thousands. When Harry and Susan refocused back on the room they were in they found Dream explaining the identities of the FF to her teammates. Reed chose that moment to enter carrying Seed's crystal. Harry chose that moment to make himself and Susan available.
"Who are you?" Thresh demanded as she turned to face a new potential threat.
"They are friends of ours," Sue interjected. "I was wondering where you guys were at."
"We've been around," Susan assured. "You were never in any real danger."
"We did not detect you," Fountain said in disbelief.
"Am I correct in assuming this being and his followers are not your friend?" Harry asked as he projected a hologram of the neutron-being.
"Gallowglass," Thresh said in alarm. "What is he made of?" Sue asked.
377
"Neutron star core matter," Harry answered. Sue and Reed both sucked in a hiss of breathe in alarm. "What is the objective of this Gallowglass?" Reed questioned.
"Gallowglass is a high ranking member of the Acheron, a vast empire of planets in our plane of existence. The Acheron is ruled by an evil tyrant known as Thanos. We freed Tesseract from the Acheron prison planet Sheol. Gallowglass will do anything to get Tesseract back," Threshold explained. "If you get us to Gallowglass we will try to correct our mistake in leading him here."
"Do not tell them about my teleportation technology," Harry instructed the FF telepathically. Aloud he said, "We can take my ship."
Susan picked up Sky-Eater using her force-fields and led the group to a nearby retractable window. A sleek looking silver arrow-shaped starship appeared. The starship was the size of a large yacht but inside it could expand to hold as much space as was needed.
"What is this ship called?" Ben asked curiously. "The Arrow," Susan answered as she set Sky-Eater down in a clear spot.
As soon as everyone was onboard the Arrow took off heading towards the park where the remaining members of Seed Nineteen had set up camp. As soon as the park was in sight it could be discerned that Gallowglass had already arrived and achieved his objective. An inter-planar portal had been opened.
"We must not let them escape," Threshold urged as she stood viewing the outside world through a hologram along with the rest of her teammates, internally quite impressed with the starship.
"Relax, I can pursue them," Harry said as he took the Arrow into the portal.
The Arrow emerged from the portal into space in front of a nasty looking massive starship shaped like some massive creature complete with a gaping maw full of sharp teeth.
"That looks like some massive twisted shark," Ben noted.
"It is an Archeron Firedrake-Class ship," Threshold explained. "It is a bio-ship...part organically grown," she added.
Harry took the Arrow into the maw of the bio-ship and the jaws closed behind the Arrow. "We have encountered bio-ships before," Reed said. Just then a crimson energy weapon lashed out at the Arrow but the Arrow's shields shrugged the attack off. "Your ship's shields are very formidable," Threshold said impressed. "What is Gallowglass doing?" Susan asked as she noticed the neutron-being gesturing towards the Arrow.
"He's using some kind of neutron-based-energy to try to crush our shields and tear the ship apart," Harry said as an alarm began to go off on one of the ship's control panels for when manual interface was desired.
378
"Can he do it?" Beast asked. "No. But if he keeps trying the resulting energy back-lash will vaporize this bio-ship," Harry said.
"Including Tesseract," Threshold said grimly. "We will have to go out and retrieve Tesseract before that can happen. How long until Gallowglass causes an explosion?"
"Not long...but I can distract him," Harry assured. "You seem pretty confident in that assertion," Threshold said. "If he says he can do something then he can," Sue assured.
Threshold nodded and led her team out onto the Firedrake. Immediately Seed Nineteen followed by the FF began to engage the Firedrake's crew. Harry leapt forward and delivered a punch to the force-field over Gallowglass' jaw with enough force to stagger Gallowglass without disrupting the force-field.
"You are strong. That is impressive," Gallowglass said. "But I am made of neutron-degenerate-matter." "I know," Harry assured.
"Then do you know what happens when I lower my force-field," Gallowglass said as he pointed the finger- tips of his right hand at Harry and lowered the force-field slightly.
Harry held up his left hand and opened a wormhole to the core of a star a few light-years away. The stream of explosive energy that shot out of Gallowglass went through the wormhole and was dissipated harmlessly. Gallowglass tried moving his palm but Harry was faster thanks to Lily. Lily could sense Gallowglass's smallest movement and cause Harry to move the wormhole aperture accordingly.
"Is that all you have?" Harry asked.
Gallowglass stepped forward and delivered a punch to Harry that saw Spider-Man needing to reinforce the personal shielding Harry always kept up in fights. Harry and Gallowglass began to fight hand-to-hand. It was obvious Gallowglass was reasonably skilled in some type of physical combat practice but not as skilled as Harry. Harry was merely trying to keep Gallowglass distracted while the others extracted Tesseract.
"Harry...I can take out his shield," Susan projected confidently. "I have studied it to find out what I needed to know. Tesseract is back on the Arrow."
"Time to die now, Gallowglass," Harry said before leaping backwards and landing next to Susan.
Harry wrapped his arm around Susan's waist preparing to teleport her to the Arrow the moment she began the shield draining process. Once started Susan could maintain the shield drain from within the confines of the Arrow. Harry took Susan to safety and moments later the Arrow rocked as the Firedrake exploded spectacularly and took out several nearby ships of the same make.
"You always know how to show a girl a good time," Susan said to Harry before kissing him gently.
379
Smut Scene Lead-In
Harry looked over as the door to his personal science lab opened and Threshold walked in. The blue-skinned beauty glanced around the lab for a moment with the eyes of a soldier assessing threats and potential assets. Harry had entered his lab to start scanning this new plane in more detail while Seed Nineteen searched for the coordinates to their home planet. Susan was showing the Seed Nineteen members how to perform the search using Harry's technology.
"What can I do for you Threshold?" Harry asked.
"I believe you can help my people a great deal, Harry Demire," Threshold said. "From what I have observed so far you are a warrior without equal. Your seed is precious and must not be wasted."
Threshold had come around a lab bench to Harry's side and stepped closer to him.
"Please call me Harry. What exactly are you proposing?" Harry questioned.
Threshold stepped closer and cupped Harry's package through his pants.
"Then call me Thresh. I'm proposing you give me your seed," Thresh said as she slowly rubbed her fingertips up and down Harry's hardness.
"It comes at a price," Harry whispered as he moved his mouth closer to hers but without going all the way. "Name it," Thresh said while getting her mouth fractionally closer to his.
"Once you start taking my seed you have to keep doing so regularly for the rest of your existence in this life," Harry announced.
"Deal," Thresh said as she closed the distance and kissed his lips hungrily. Clothes were quickly discarded after that. Begin Smut Scene
Harry entered Thresh's blue and pink quim with guidance from her firmly grasping hand. She hissed and threw her head back with a moan as his hardness burrowed into her sleeve. He was impressively large when compared against the average of her species and he stretched her insides to her limits. Thresh loved it and squeezed her inner muscles tightly around his organ. His mouth was upon her neck tasting her flesh. With a growl he started rocking his hips backwards and then forwards again. His groin bounced off of her mound and sent a wonderful wave of motion through her body.
Thresh's snatch was hotter than the average human woman's feminine core. Her slickness slid and clenched around his frenulum as he pumped his manhood to and from her deepest embrace. Her neck flesh tasted sweet and sent a spike in his primal desire for her. He drew his head back to look at her and gazed at her beautiful features. Her blue complexion and red mark in the center of her forehead made her look exotic. Her eyes met his and he saw hunger, need, and most of all enjoyment flash through her gaze. He leaned back further. Thresh set her hands on the lab table as she leaned back slightly which gave him an unobstructed view of her physique. Her abdominal muscles were sculpted from hard work. Her breasts were full capped with a darker purple set of nipples. Harry reached up and felt the fullness of her breasts. A purple liquid oozed slightly from her nipples. She reached out and drew his mouth down to one of her nipples. Harry drank the purple liquid and found it to be sweet and delicious. The liquid sent a fire into Harry's belly that saw the pleasure generated by her pussy moving around his length intensifying many-fold. Harry groaned as he released her tit. He found Thresh gazing down at him with a satisfied smirk. He stood back up fully and looked down to where his prick was pumping to and from her gash. He saw her meaty lips stretched widely around his shaft.
380
Thresh felt very desired as her partner gazed at her stretched flower. Already she felt his pre-seed leaking into her. She too gazed at his body and found him to be sculpted perfectly. Even his thrusts showed the movements of a true warrior. She used her hand placement on the surface beneath her and her leg-hold from having her legs wrapped around him to start thrusting her pelvis towards his groin as he sent his spear driving into her. This served the purpose of getting his manhood even deeper into her core. The massage his shaft was giving her inner walls generated more heat from friction and stretched her more deeply. Thresh loved it. She groaned and moaned louder. Harry's eyes closed momentarily in rapture. She squeezed her inner muscles even more intensely. She wanted his seed so badly. She wanted to see him lose control and spill his essence into her. By her count he had stroked over a hundred times into her. No male had ever lasted this long within her. Then Thresh sensed something different. She sensed power flowing into her from him. Her eyes flew wide as she felt the energies of the universe with energy densities she had never sensed before entering her body. He was a reality bender.
"By the infinite," Thresh cried out as her pleasure flooded her senses without her actually being able to orgasm.
Harry could tell Thresh was sensitive to arcane energies. She was able to tell the moment he pushed his energetic essence into hers and began manipulating her essence as easily as he manipulated her physical body. Harry grasped the energies of her pending release and held her climax at bay. He continued to pump her tight pussy with relentless motion. She lost track of all sense of the passage of time and indeed the universe around her. Harry transfigured the lab table into a bed and laid her back. He lowered himself onto his forearms and altered his angle of thrust so that he was moving down and up on top of her. Her legs remained locked around his backside as he continued to slide between her creamy thighs and into her center. Her eyes had closed at some point. He gripped the edge of the mattress for leverage as he continued to move within her. Her eyes opened at a moment when he was just focusing mostly on enjoying the slickness of her flower. The look she focused upon him was one of awe. Her fingertips slid up and down his biceps before trailing over his chest and down to his abdomen. She looked down to where they were joined...to where he was skewering her gash. He could feel the intensity of her experience as he made her his.
For Thresh this had stopped being about just getting his precious seed to help her people and had become something so much more, something transcendent. She would have his seed. There was no doubt about that. But she realized she was also going to get so much more. Just from what she was feeling now she knew she was about to experience the greatest moment of her life thanks to his prick filling her and massaging her. She was craving it but wouldn't rush it.
"Fill me with your seed...when you are ready," Thresh whispered pausing to gasp in joy partway through. "I am yours to take your seed...whenever you want me. Now and forever."
Harry leaned down and brought his mouth next to Thresh's left ear where he whispered, "Cum for me now, beautiful. Writhe and cry out while impaled on my cock as I empty my hot batter into your pussy."
As if his words shaped reality Thresh felt what had been holding her back free her. Her vagina clamped down on his shaft as he pushed his manhood fully into her body. Ecstasy surged through her entire form starting from her sex and coursing through her belly, her bum, her breasts, and everywhere else. She screamed and writhed beneath him, calling out his name. He pressed her lower half down as he let his semen spill into her quim which greedily drank it up and continually massaged his pulsing prick wanting more. He injected her deeply with his seed just like she had wanted and she loved every second of it. Her orgasm didn't abate for over a minute longer than she had previously thought possible. She clung to him as she shuddered and shook. Gradually she started to come down as did he.
Thresh opened her eyes to find her new partner staring down at her. He was still fully hard within her satisfied snatch. He had a gentle pleased expression on his lips. She couldn't resist but to lean up and kiss those lips.

"You are gorgeous," Harry informed the sweaty female as she caught her breathe.
"I desire you so very much," Thresh replied in kind. She glanced at the doorway and asked, "How much time do you think we have before others come looking?"
"As much as we need," Harry answered. "I'm manipulating time in this room." Thresh wondered if she would one day get used to his power levels. She hoped not.
"Good...I love feeling your weight on me...feeling you in me. Let's stay like this for a while," Thresh suggested.
Harry nodded and let himself settle more fully onto her. She initiated another kiss and they remained together for a long while like that.
End Smut Scene
Harry and Threshold re-entered the main section of the ship after a very fun time to find the members of Seed Nineteen and the FF standing near Ben Grimm with obvious concern for The Thing. Ben was clutching his head as if in pain.
Harry and Susan's bio-net A.I.'s immediately alerted the couple to a potential threat of significant strength as Ben stood up tall and turned to face the group.
In a voice not his own Ben said, "You may approach the presence, Reed Richards. We have much to discuss before this body's energies are exhausted."
"Who are you?" Harry asked even as he felt Thresh shudder next to him.
"Thanos," Thresh whispered with extreme alarm. "What is he?" Reed demanded, outraged that this foreign entity would invade his friend.
"Reed Richards," Thanos said. "I have been searching for you for a thousand years but until you shifted into Acheron space a mere few hours ago I did not know your name."
"Either prophecy or time travel are involved here if he has been searching that long before Reed's birth,"
Harry sent to Susan. "Or both," Susan replied. "But knowing the exploits of the FF like we do I think we can bet it is likely time
travel we are dealing with."
"Agreed," Harry replied. "Lily, can you gradually boost the strength of Ben's essence without giving Thanos any power boost?"
"Yes. I believe I can," Lily confirmed. "Do so," Harry ordered. Meanwhile Reed had engaged Thanos in further conversation. "You aren't as powerful as you want me to believe you are," Reed informed Thanos. "The storm troopers,
382
torture chambers, and the executions are all an attempt to keep those in your domain suppressed."
"If I gave these people freedom it would only let disorder and chaos into the universe," Thanos stated. "These people give up their freedom willingly and thank me for it."
"Somehow I don't think that is the case. I think you are deluding yourself into believing that," Reed answered back. "Why is it that you are here on this ship?"
"I would commission you to build a device for me to replace something which I once owned," Thanos explained he projected a fiery colored hologram of a cubic device above his palm.
"Leave my friend's mind and then I will give you my answer," Reed replied. "This friend can't be happy in this body," Thanos said.
"Ben's physical state isn't important here," Reed interrupted. "If you obtained this cubic device what would you use it for?"
"I would use it to erase the wills of the many," Thanos explained. "I would overwrite the erased wills with my own."
"Fuck off," Reed replied.
"I think you don't have sufficient incentive," Thanos said threateningly as he extended essence out towards Johnny and then reached for Johnny.
"No," Thresh cried out.
Faster than most could blink Harry was in front of Johnny and had caught Thanos/Ben's arm in a powerful grip.
"You should be dead or dying," Thanos said with surprise. "What are you?"
"I get asked that question a lot," Harry said even as Thanos tried pulling Ben's arm back. But Harry was strong and had his spider-enhanced palms which could grip strongly. "I think it's time for you to go and Ben to wake up. Begone!"
Thanos' presence flew from the ship with a burst of Harry's power.
"Are you ok, buddy?" Reed asked Ben as Harry lowered Ben to the ground.
"Yeah...that was not fun," Ben said.
"You ejected Thanos," Thresh said with awe while staring at her new lover, an awe mirrored by the rest of Seed Nineteen.
"He was an ass," Harry replied nonchalantly.
"Thresh, we have problems," Fountain reported just as Harry received an alert from the ship. "I'm detecting a universal weapon in the area."

"Something is trying to pull us down to the nearby planet," Harry said as he focused on the controls of the Arrow.
"Can you resist it?" Sue asked.
"Yes. But doing so could cause what is pulling us to explode. Something pulling us this strongly could have disastrous consequences for the planet below and possibly more. I'm going to land the ship and investigate," Harry said. "Huh."
"What is it?" Reed questioned.
"It's causing a merging of the portion of this plane on the planet nearby with a portion of Earth from our plane," Harry explained. "I would love to study this technology."
"No you wouldn't," Beast said.
"But you'll get your chance," Thresh said as the ship touched down in the region of the planet effected by the so called universal weapon. "We are coming with you. You won't face that alone. Dream, stay here with Seed and work on getting Tesseract up into battle form. We may need him."
The group left the ship and found an armored humanoid male wielding a glowing device shaped vaguely like a battle mace. This device was the universal weapon.
"Ronan," Thresh whispered to Harry.
"Reed Richards, Harry Demire, Sue Storm, Ben Grimm, Johnny Storm, and Susan Storm of Earth. You all stand accused. According to the law which I embody, you will be judged. Along with the world that gave you birth," Ronan declared.
"Scanning the designated universal weapon now," Lily informed Harry. "This might require considerable time. I am sensing an artificial pocket dimension within the plane Ronan comes from within that weapon."
"A dimension within an artificial dimension...fascinating," Harry mused. "The judgment zone is sealed. I will accuse, and then I will judge. In the name of my father, Thanos,"
Ronan said. "What have you done to spacetime?" Reed questioned.
"I have welded this region of spacetime to a matching region of spacetime on Ironwater," Ronan replied. "Two worlds will watch as your sentence is passed."
Ben was tempted to step forward and smash this guy's face in but he stood back and waited to see what Reed and Harry did. Ben was learning that the smash first approach was not always the best. Unfortunately Johnny was not learning as quickly. Johnny reached out with his flame power and attempted to melt the universal weapon.
"Take this," Johnny cried as he made his attempt.
"Your efforts are futile. The universal weapon can control any energies it samples. Heat is only agitated air molecules. Flame is only oxidation," Ronan said as he used the universal weapon to shut down Johnny's
384
abilities. It was then that the members of Seed Nineteen chose to join in on the attack.
"I do not know that we can overcome him without Tesseract fighting on our side," Thresh informed her new lover. "The universal weapon is formidable."
"I think you may be surprised," Susan told Thresh. "Harry has that affect."
Harry leapt towards Ronan while summoning the enhanced sword the wizard favored the most. Harry's leap ended with Harry bringing that sword down on the universal weapon and the sounds of two alien alloys clashing rang out like thunder. Windows shattered for miles around and the discharge of energy threw everybody but Harry, Ronan, Threshold, and Susan from their feet. Susan had shielded herself and Threshold.
The two weapons remained locked together for a moment before Ronan tried sending a blast of energy through the universal weapon at Harry. But the energy was absorbed into Harry's sword and seemingly dissipated which caused Ronan's eyes to widen in surprise.
"That is not possible," Ronan said with a strained voice as he fought against Harry's strength.
"Anything is possible," Harry said just before Ronan spun breaking away from the lock and attempting to swing the universal weapon (u-w) at the back of Harry's head in what would have been a fatal blow.
Harry ducked the swing and delivered a powerful side kick to Ronan's mid-section that sent the accuser flying back into a nearby building. Harry leapt after Ronan but the accuser had recovered enough to get up and continue the fight. The two super-beings danced then in a display of martial skill that saw those watching impressed and feeling outclassed.
"Should we intervene?" Thresh asked Susan.
Threshold realized she had only known her new lover a short amount of time. Thresh would defer to Susan's judgment in these matters. Thresh also noticed that Dream had managed to wake up Tesseract returned to their side. Even then the other members of her unit were helping Tesseract to his feet.
"No. Harry is gauging Ronan's weaknesses before making a move. I think Harry is about finished with that," Susan assured while never taking her eyes off of the fight.
As if Susan's words were prophetic Harry deflected Ronan's next strike and moved faster than anyone watching could follow. Harry's sword was through Ronan's neck. Ronan died instantly and Harry removed the bloody sword. Harry immediately activated the teleportation network to take the u-w away. Susan came forward followed by the others. Susan immediately pulled Harry in for a kiss. Then she turned slightly while maintaining her left arm around Harry's waist. Thresh also decided to reward Harry with a kiss.
"You are a very skilled warrior," Tesseract told Harry. Harry merely nodded in confirmation. "A great blow has been struck against Thanos this day. I can already feel Ronan's weld coming undone. We must return to Ironwater."
Tesseract looked questioningly at Threshold. "His seed is valuable. I will remain with Harry for the time being," Thresh announced.

"I will provide her transportation to and from your plane when necessary," Harry assured. Tesseract nodded his understanding and said, "Farewell." The other members of Seed Nineteen echoed this sentiment as did the members of the Fantastic Four. "Come on...I'll show you where I live," Harry told Threshold as he offered her his hand. "I would like that," Thresh agreed with a small smile and taking his hand. Thresh couldn't help but think life was about to get more interesting.
