Conception.
That moment where a new life begins. At it's most basic, core, scientific definitions it is when an egg is fertilized by a sperm and then the "miracle of life" begins. That single moment where you begin to forage ahead on that great path called destiny. Not knowing what lies before you, what you will see on this great adventure. You can do anything. Be almost anything. That's what they'll tell you. Your destiny, your own personal life plan, it will be a grandiose thing! Never before will anyone achieve the greatness that you will!
Sometimes, people don't know any better. Sometimes, they're definition of greatness is more in line with horrific and terrible. They things you will do will not be spoken of with reverence, but in hushed whispers of disgust and sadness.
It's almost funny who things have turned out. How it has all built to this. Mommy and Daddy just had the fight of their lives! It was SO CLOSE! If only, IF ONLY Daddy had pulled it off, if he had stopped Mommy. Then this wouldn't have to happen. Then I- I wouldn't have to happen.
But it will.
I will still happen, despite my efforts.
I suppose my conception began all those years ago. Daddy was so young then. It was his one of his first times there. His crazy band of misfits. They fought their hearts out that day on the planet. But as bad as they wanted it, HE wanted it more for them. The one the planet hates. The one who is banished forever. The timeless one who turned them all into rubble just for his own vanity.
I can't imagine Daddy would know that Kang would not only win him a match, but then again, Kang was always underestimated by the Watchers. That horrific day when he first sacrificed the Playoff Planet, just to beat the Slaves. He said it would reform, knew it would. For that is the destiny of the Planet. To house all the death and combat. The playground of the barbaric.
But what if all the devastation the planet holds doesn't want to just stay there? Suppose, just for a second, that piece doesn't go back to where it's supposed to. That it remains in the vast cosmos. It's no longer an island. It's now a STAR! A star that still aches from the cruelty the Watchers bestow on it. It still rages about the mindless slaughter of it's common, indigenous people. It wants to lash out at them, to HURT them. But what can it do? It's just one tiny speck out of millions. One small sperm. Swimming.
Just like the fish says, "You've got to just keep swimming" so Daddy's space sperm swims for decades and decades. It's conscious connection to the PlayOff Planet remains intact. But this, this one little star will change things. It will. It has too.
The pain of it's people MUST STOP.
And then one day,Daddy hears the cries. The cries of the one who is rich in glorious pedigree, but still empty inside. The one who's pain is equal to the anger that Daddy has.
Yesssss. Kismet. Perfection.
DESTINY.
So Daddy alters his course. Sets down for his perfect match. And crashes and burns into the stratospher Where he lands at the feet of Mommy. And he cries out
"You! No longer must you feel the suffering you do! I hear and see you! And I-I love you for who you are and what you and I can accomplish. So, so many will pay for our pain. Join me and together we will rewrite this universes destiny with it's own blood."
And Mommy- he thought for a second. Yes, yes he has had a good life. But trophies are meaningless. Victory comes at a cost, and this is one he tires of paying.
"What do you ask of me?" Mommy whispers. Daddy tells Mommy, and so it begins.
Mommy smashes Daddy into bits. Grinds him down. Breathes in the Dust of the Star that was once an island that was a Planet destroyed by a madman in 2012.
Mommy changes. He begins to form. THe advance of his power sTrippINg AwaY All tHAt USEd to reMAIn of boTH PReviouS forMS.
Daddy and Mommy. Male and Female. Sperm and Egg. MadNEsS DescendING.
STarDUst asCENDING.
RISE UP STARDUST! And fall, fall down Watchers.
So yes, we aLl KNow Now that DAddY SLeepS With KANG, but whaT TeAMmaTE Is MoMMy??

Cool beans.
Freaking awesome start.
Though now my nerves have started their standard complete and utter freak out.
Crap.
You may end up jiggling yourself to death before the end of this. Be careful Friend, stay hydrated.
Possible. Either that or I will finally learn how to phase through matter Shadowcat-style.
That'd be harsh!!
Great start Seeney, cannot wait to see where this goes.
This seems to be going the way of Bruce Jenner---chopped off penis to come, boobs in place.
The FFL is different, chop off one dong, two shall take it's place.
HAIL FFL!! HAIL FFL!!
Little FFL Trivia.... So far there have been 12 battles between the Horsemen of Apokolips and TEAM, with the Horsemen having the advantage at 7-5.
However, TEAM owns the Postseason record of 3-1.
