" So that was it guys, I know you guys have many questions.s after watching this long. So now we will take a break, you all can freshen up and have something to eat.

"Thank god I was starving to death" came the voice of Blob for the first time, to which the mutants deadpanned at him.

THE THEATER

Galacta snapped her fingers and motioned everyone to move out in a row, Everyone moved out slowly while some stretched themselves after sitting for long hours. Soon everyone were out of the main theater, now they were standing in a large lobby with multiple groups of luxurious seats and tables. On one side of the lobby was free for all buffet food counter, and adjacent to that was area for a mini bar lounge. A mysterious figure, cloaked in the attire of a bartender, commanded attention from behind the counter. Their celestial appearance, resembling a beautiful assembly of stars and nebulae crafted into a mortal being, exuded an otherworldly allure.There were other faceless men and women wearing hotel staff uniform, Everyone looked at them uneasily.

Valeria's gaze filled with unease as she glanced at them, seeking refuge behind May. Her brother, Franklin, too, hid behind his mother after seeing such beings. Valeria tugged Galacta's hand and asked her uneasily.

"Who are they?" she asked with an uneasy face that made her look like an innocent child.

'SO CUUUTTTTEEEE!' screamed Galacta internally as she gushed at Valeria's cuteness, she quickly corrected herself.

"Oh , These guys are the servants and helpers of father, The One Above All. You can call them Voidlings," clarified Galacta as she nodded towards Valeria. She then looked at everyone in the giant lobby and said,

"They will be your caterers here, but don't underestimate them. If you even cause a sliver of trouble here they will make you dust in a matter of  seconds." warned Galacta as she looked at everyone, but there were still idiots many in the group and first one to speak up was Scott Summers.

"These creatures can't do shit to me! I will burn them to smoke!" said Cyclops with an air of arrogance, Jean and Emma slapped their foreheads with a sigh and some of the sane mutants looked at him weirdly.

Suddenly one of the faceless beings stepped before him and placed his hand on Scott.

*puff*

Suddenly Cyclops turned into a sparkle of white dust, everyone's eyes widened with shock and fear as the being has turned Cyclops into dust in mere blink of an eye. 

"Scott..." gasped Charles Xavier  as he saw one of his favorite pupils, getting killed before his own eyes. Some idiots who were going to support his claims shook with fear and were glad they didn't voice out about their opinions.

With a sigh, Galacta uttered her triumphant words: "I told you so..." Suddenly, a dazzling burst of light filled the entire room, revealing the abrupt appearance of a man clad in pure white garments.

"Am I late to the party?!"asked the man with a big smile, his teeth sparkling.

"Kind of? "Cyclops got dusted," replied Galacta with a shrug.

"Hey you can't do that to the guests here!" said Beyonder in mock scolding tone, he then snapped his fingers and with another flash of light Cyclops reappeared but with a terrified face, soon he collapsed on his ass. The mutants gathered around him and helped him to stand up, 

"You are a fool for challenging these  beings in their own domain, Scott," scolded Jean while Emma looked at him, displeased. The others who had seen the power of the beings shut up quickly. 

"Hey Beyonder, could we have a private conversation before I leave?" Galacta asked, as a sparkling grin spread across Beyonder's face and he nodded in agreement. They both flashed away to parts unknown, so everyone decided to take refreshments.

A female voidling walked before May and bowed before her, she then motioned for May to follow her. May looked at her confused as she didn't know what the being was trying to say, the voidling then pulled out a placard from somewhere.

"Please follow me...?" read Valeria aloud, May nodded and looked at the people with her.

"Would you all like to give this old woman company?" she invited Valeria, MJ, Felicia and surprisingly Nick and Maria. The others agreed, but Maria looked at her superior, Fury too agreed, and they all followed the voidling. 

The villains walked to find seats in the other corner to grab seats, the heroes too started to form groups and look for seats. Susan looked at her daughter who was with May in a separate seating area than any of them. She has certainly made a grave mistake this time. Not only did she lose her daughter, but Peter as well. She should have trusted her children and Peter when they insisted that Otto had taken over his body. However, she foolishly dismissed their claims as ridiculous. Franklin grasped her hand gently, his small smile spoke volumes. He empathized with his mother's thoughts, feeling disheartened by the growing division between Valeria and Susan. 

Jennifer was sitting alone at bar in her She-Hulk form, having a drink in front of her. She gulped it down in one go and asked for another and the bartender refilled her glass. She was thinking about what was revealed during the viewing and most importantly Carol's treachery, she can't believe her own best friend sabotaged her relationship. And speaking of that friend, Carol walked towards her in apprehension with Jessica following behind.

"Jen..." called Carol in a sad voice, Jennifer ignored her and continued drinking, but now more aggressively.

"Jen... " still got no response from her

"Jennifer...." this time Carol laid her hand on her friend's shoulder but suddenly Jen stood up and swatted her hand away. Jen then grabbed Carol's neck in her hand and lifted her up. Jessica quickly tried to calm Jen down,

"WHAT!? What Carol!!" asked Jennifer in rage, as her eyes glowed green.

"Can....Can we...talk?" choked out Carol.

"What's even their to talk?" snapped Jen. Jessica tried to get an angry Jennifer's attention to which she was successful after a short while.

"Jen calm down, we don't want to anger these voidlings," said Jessica as she pointed towards the bartender. Jen looked at the voidling and found him holding a placard that read,

"Please refrain from violence unless you want us to take action against you,"

"*sigh* Sorry," she said as she dropped Carol down on the ground and transformed down into her normal form,  She sat back down on her seat and received another drink from the bartender.

"Thanks," said Jen, she noticed Jessica sit on her left and ordered her preferred drink. Carol stood up and rubbed her neck and took a seat on Jen's other side.

"I deserved that...." said Carol sadly but Jennifer ignored her, after a short while Jen asked her in a low sad tone,

"Why?...why did you do it?"

While the friends were having heart-to-heart, the villains were having there own conversation. In another corner, around a round table group of villains were either standing or sitting.

"What do all of you make of the future events that has been displayed earlier?" asked Norman as he looked at his fellow leaders and rogues.

"In the spirit of admiration, I must commend Doctor Octavius for achieving what we have long struggled with," Red Skull declared in his deep German accent, while Otto, occupying Peter's body, responded with a wicked grin.

"You have to admit now Norman, I am far superior in doing what you all unable to do?" slightly mocked Octavius.

"Are you still desperately seeking my validation, Otto?" Norman calmly retorted, a mischievous smile slowly reclaiming his face, further fueling Otto's anger.

"No, I wasn't trying to get rid of Peter like all of you,"Norman denied any intentions of eliminating Peter, countering the belief held by everyone. His sinister grin revealed his wickedness, intensifying with each passing moment.

"Explain, Herr Norman?" asked Red skull curiously while others started to feel uneasy at his smile.

I recognize Peter's potential, whereas you view him as a threat or adversary. However, I am determined to challenge him and help him understand that the world loves to see heroes fall. I see him as a potential heir to my legacy, my own blood isn't compared to him" clarified Norman with a grin but was disgusted at his last word, his son was no match for what Peter could be.

"Interesting viewpoint Norman," said Madame Viper as she showed interest at Norman's claim, she was not the only one even Monica Rappaccini was interested now.

"hmph that goody two shoes Parker can't be menacing at all," said Otto in frustration and rage.

"oh Otto you haven't you seen the future yourself," was the only thing Norman said with his wide grin, making the villains around him shudder.
