Alex and the others stared in shock at who they are facing up against. The being in front of them is, while it looks strange, it is very dangerous nonetheless. Alex and Rex can sense the power it is exhibiting. The power is so dangerous. It is slightly more powerful than even the Symbiote God. While Rex is worried about that, Alex is just plain enraged at his guess here.

"You...You're the one that brought us here, didn't you?!"

While Alex can't see it, he sensed that the king is smiling under the mask.

"You have been believed to be a threat to my master. You have defeated Knull, which my Matser has hoped he would do to you, despite the fact that master hates him. For your punishment for interfering with Creation's end, I, The Hanged King, will have the Ambassador of Alagadda bring about your greatest suffering."

As he spoke this, a black mist than formed next to him. It than began to twist and turn like a tornado, causing everyone to hold their arms over their faces to avoid getting dirt in their eyes, as they are suddenly back to their normal clothing, and are mask less. Alex, however, just kept looking, and sees what is happening right inside the tornado. Inside of the tornado is a humanoid figure coming out of the hole. Alex could make out the outline as a male figure rising up. It was taller compared to the human of average height. Rex was looking rather afraid.

The vortex came out spinning for a total of 10 minutes, before finally dispersing into a rather very violent shockwave. As everyone looked at where the tornado used to be. But the smoke is blocking their vision so they can't see. When the dust settles, everyone saw who was there.

The humanoid, while it doesn't seem to be as strong, it is still powerful nevertheless. Alex could sense immense insanity from whatever this thing is.

"Ahhhh...it is finally great to be back here again. I now have more victims to play with right now. Let us see how much suffering you can all TAKE!!!"

He than raised both hands, creating metal blades out of complete nothing, and launched them at the group! Alex summoned his shield, and catches some of the blades coming forward, before getting hit in the stomach and in the leg. Venom takes the hit, but he pulls them out like it is completely nothing there. Blue Beetle brings in his own shield, and get many of them away, though he is later tired from blocking. Rex, however, was not great. Because of what he has been through with the daughter one of the Lords, his shield didn't hold and he has been pierced multiple times. As he gets the blades out, his injuries started healing. But he still feels pain.

Breach summoned portals around Skwydd and herself to avoid them. Once everyone recovered, minus Rex who is still feeling pain, the Ambassador looked slightly irritated.

"Hmmm...now I know why the Hanged King said that you are difficult to destroy. No matter. I will make work of you soon enough."

He than raised his hands. But instead of bringing something else to attack them, he thought in this thing instead.

The Ambassador than brought in copies of the original beings. They all look so horrifying. Alex, however, was not worried.

'I have a feeling that this is not simple copying. This is something else...it is something way more...fearful.'

The ambassador than commanded them. He waved his hand and spoke out to thin.

"Get them, and give them torment."

The other beings charged at them. Alex got ready his blade, but then the copy does the exact same thing.

Both Alex's clash blades against one another. The evil one's eyes glow a menacing red, as the original Alex is struggling against this strange copy.

"Do you honestly think that being with the humans is the greatest choice you make?"

The copy than pushes him the original back pretty far.

"You could have been king. Think about it. Everyone in one body, one mine. You'd give the world a second chance to live in life."

But the original Alex than spoke this out to him.

"The only curse is you."

He than charges at the copy, who than gets into a stance and charges fast. But the copy made infected around the original, and made them go into a predatory state against the origins Blacklight.

Madness Venom than extend his left arm and brought in appendages of mouth, and tried to devour  Venom and his host, Flash Thompson.

Venom than made a shield out of his left arm, and charged  at the copy in a enraged state, roaring with anticipation. The 2 Venoms charged at each other at full speed, and each punched one another. The punches caused a shockwave that made a large crater under the 2 Symbiotes' feet.

Venom than liquifies his biomass in the ground, and summon 2 leech-like creature that are formed from the biomass. Unfortunately, Madness Venom backs away. Venom than stopped the attack, and uses a bit more range to even the odds.

Madness Venom, however, does the same, but with his heads. The 2 attacks cancelled out, and each retreated back again.

"When we are through with you, we will torture you. All of your loved one will die before your eyes, while you watch with helplessness!"

Venom roared and attacked again, now with much more fury. Madness Venom grinned and launched at the same time too. But as they jumped, Madness Venom made an arm blade, and swipes at Venom. Venom dodged it, but than he sees that the copy is fighting similar to Knull's way of fighting against his opponent whenever he uses his sword.

"This is not good, Flash."

"I know. Just do whatever you can to stop him."

Venom nodded his head, and charged at the mad copy.

The 2 Blue Beetles are that seen fighting each other. Blue beetle pulls out his mace arm and hits the larger and evil Blue Beetle. He had taken considerable damage. But the large Blue Beetle than charged at the original. The original than flies up in the air. But the copy grabbed the original by the leg, and slammed him down hard into the ground.

"Hah. You think you can get free will of your own. You're nothing more but a tool for the Reach."

Jaime than gets up, and surprised attacked the giant man. He than used his chest cannon, and blasted him, hard.

"I am no one's took! The scarab and I, we are buddies that watch out for one another! We will defeat you and the king!"

He than activated flight mode, and sped right into the copy, who fell down hard.

Rex was having a time more easier than everybody else. The attacks of this copy are so slow to hit. It is just the size that is makes hitting difficult.

Rex than leapt into the air, and summoned the Smack Hands into him. But the copy used his left hand and slammed to the right. This caused the 2 punches to make a thunderous clang.

Rex than ducked under the clone, and cuts the Punk Busters. While he didn't exactly get it all the way, he was able to damage it with a considerable hit.

Before Rex could do anything else, the clone than kicks Rex with its own left Punk Buster, catching Rex off-guard, and sending him flying. Rex than rises above the ground, and looks rather angry.

Rex than charges at the clone and activated his own Punk Busters, but the Clone has a surprise attack for Rex. It raised his hand and summoned a domed cage. This cage resembles the cage that Mekahne used to trap the Goddess of Flesh, Yaldabaoth. As Rex tried to get out of the strange cage, the clone than charges forward, and tries to strike Rex. Rex, however, pulls off his Block Party, hereby protecting himself. Rex than skidded back, as he looked at the clone. Rex than got out both Smack Hands and Punk Busters, as he goes back to fighting against the deformed clone.

Skwydd is using whatever he has to beat his clone. The clone himself proved to be very formidable. It can even split its arms to make a cage.

Skwydd than used the ink and try to take for cover. The clone, however, pulls off an unexpected move, and manipulated it. He made the ink turn into a tentacle, and tried to ensnare Skwydd in it. Skwydd than jumps out of the way, and tried to cut the clone in half by using his arm tentacle. But the clone tried the same thing, and each of the tentacles wrapped around themselves.

Skwydd than reels it in and tried to attack the clone. But the clone than punched him in the face, skidding him back 10 feet. The clone than lunges at the original, but Skwydd jumps away, and attacks back ferociously. He did a barrage of tentacle cut attacks, sprayed ink in the clone's own face, blinding it, and finally wrapped it around and slammed it into the ground.

The clone, however, is still fighting him. And Skwydd takes on him.

Breach is seen fighting her own clone. The clone Breach is trying to summon portals and drop rubble on her. But the original Breach used her own portals to get out of the way, and land somewhere safe from them.

Breach, in fear, than summons a portal towards the clone. But the clone made its own portal, and sneak attacked. Breach, however, saw this, and used a portal under her feet. She than jumped next to the clone, and proceed to go hand-to-hand.

Breach used her human-sized arms and punched the stomach of the clone. This made the clone angry at the pain, and used her large arms and punch the original. Breach holds her own arms and blocks the large punch, but was skidded 15 feet.

Breach looked up front, but was not prepared for a lock coming at her face. She gets hit and landed on one of the walls. She than stood up, shaking from the pain she felt. She than looked at the clone, with eyes glowing red.

"Face it. You do are not a real thing. You are nothing but a tool, a power for our master. Give up, and submit to the Hanged King. It is your only true fate having."

The clone spoke to her. The clone's voice was menacing and scary compared to how the original speaks in hers. Breach was unsure what to think at first. She believed that she was a tool, and the clone's probably right. She used her powers to fulfill her own personal desires. She steal, take, and store anything in her pocket dimension, and never cared about it, just to add her collection. She thought she was lost...













...Until Rex came for her.

As she remembered, Rex and Alex were there for her, along with the other friends. She remembers that she wasn't the only being that is similar to a monstrous being. There are others to. But they still helped her, despite how she looks outside, not caring what she is. And she remembers that she helps them back in immense gratitude. As she remembers all the things that has happening in her life, the good one...she...laughs?

"Hmhmhmhmhnhmhmhm....hehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehe...hahahahahahahahahahahahaha..."

The clone noticed, and realized that something is wrong here. The clone was actually starting to freak out, rather badly.

"What...What is it? What are you suddenly laughing now?!"

The clone is actually afraid. She thought that she was striking fear into the original. But as it turns out, this table is flipped around.

"That I was what I used to think at first. I always thought that I was just nothing more than a power. All I did care in my life was stealing, never caring about the many innocent lives that existed outside. But it was when I met both Alex and Rex, that it all changed. They all cared for me, tried to hide me from the foundation. Whenever I was in trouble, they will always do anything that they can to protect me, regardless on how painful it is. They had protected me from my death a number of times. Now...it is my turn to return the favor, by making sure you are erased!"

Breach than put both of her large hands up high, and slammed them both together, similar to a clapping gesture. Suddenly, 2 portals came out of nowhere, and actually began to trapped the clone inside. As this happened, the clone then felt her own life began to slip very far, as both her eyes and mouth began to shoot out red light, and holes appear on her chest.

The clone than begins to scream, frighteningly.

"AHHHHHHHHHH!!!! AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHhhhhhhhhhhhhh..."

As she screams, her voice is getting weaker by every second...until the clone has finally been erased. The clone has become red particles of Red Light, and also turned to red dust. Alex saw this, as he realized what had just happened, and what the clones are.

'I get it now. The clones, they are playing on our personal fears, and formed from our greatest personal nightmares. So maybe...let's see what my clone fears the most."

Alex than looks at the clone, but the clone looks a bit angry when he sees the original is smiling.

"Why are you smiling, faker?"

Alex chuckled and spoke back.

"I should be asking you...Faker. You think that you are way more powerful than me, thinking that you can bring me to your knees. But you should realize something...we are both the one and the same being. We both have each other's skills, and we both see the memories of who we consumed. The difference is that you use your power for a very selfish agenda. But me...I use my power to bring back what I had lost. And that is something that you don't actually have. So tell me this...who is the true enemy here?"

The original growled, but than he began chuckling at Alex.

"Hehehehehehehe...clever. You actually realized how our beliefs are different. Than I should say this. That I am going to make sure...you're consumed alive."

Suddenly, the clone than began to change form. It is glowing Red, and mouth is becoming more and more wider. As he completes the transformation, this is what he looks.

The clone now looks way more hideous than ever before. The head has a wide grin, with some one strand of flesh attached to the jaw, and almost resembles a skeleton. The skin becomes as pale and black as a decomposed corpse, with blue eyes that are now glowing faintly. Many parts of the body is glowing a hideous red, and all have large veins. The clone than took out its blade arm, and sprints directly to the original Alex. He than jumped into the air, and tried to slice the original in clean halves.

Alex, however, anticipated this, and grabbed the blade with the left claw. He than used his Whipfist at the right, and sliced the arm off. The clone than changed to the Whipfist, and tired to kill him at the head. But Alex used his left hand to grab it, and reel the clone in. This caused the clone to fumble forward, and Alex sliced the Whipfist with his Arm Blade. The clone than brought out his hammerfists and prepared to pound down on the original. But Alex to used the Hammerfists, and ripped the clones off of him with effort. The clone than went down, and began to turn to dust. But as he did, he looked at Alex and chuckled out.

"Welcome to the top of the food chain."

He said, before crumbling down into nothing more than dust. Alex looked at where his clone stood, before turning away. Rex was also able to make short work of it, even when he did not do what Alex and Breach had done.

Madness Venom and Evil Beetle couldn't believe what they are seeing. Their allies have been killed by their original counterparts. But before they could do anything, Breach, Alex, and Rex all came in and destroyed the other clones.

Skwydd was having a bit of trouble with his own clone. But just as he was about to attack, the clone than suddenly gets attacked by two red disintegrating portals. The portals than closed in on Skwydd, before violently exploding.

The Ambassador looked in immense disbelief, as he is shocked at what he is witnessing.

"Impossible..."

Than, he screams in agony, as the group is blinded by another bright light. And than, finally...












...it's silence.
