Chapter 143: An End To War Part 4

Zell had a bubbling anger brewing inside. Not just because of the insolence of the person in front of him, but because Radi may have been right. After all the time and effort of bringing everyone back and demanding peace, they still were working on this weapon. Zell's eyes began to glow. "You will do as I say mortal and that is final!" He yelled out with such force that it shook the planet they were standing on.

The man's eyes glazed over as his will left his body at the command of a god. "What is your command, my master?" The man said in a monotone voice.

"Where is the damned plague you are working on!" Zell demanded.

The man turned and started walking. "It is right this way, master." He said as he walked, waving for Zell to follow. He took Zell deeper into the lab down an elevator ten floors. As the doors of the elevator opened there were two turrets lined up aimed at the opening.

Red lights flashed and a robotic voice came over the intercom. "Unauthorized access detected. Lethal force approved."

The gun barrels on the turrets began to spin as they shot out bolts of hardened light and plasma. Zell formed a barrier over the mindless middle manager that had been helping him and saved him from the onslaught. Zell then grabbed him by the shoulder and threw him to the side of the elevator and walked outside.

The guns trained on him as their target and launched volley after volley at him. He kept walking forward completely unaffected by the blasts. He put out his hand and launched two tiny fireballs that hit the gun turrets causing them to explode in a glorious ball of fire and ash.

A large metal door stood in his way. He reached out and jabbed his fingers through the metal. He then crumbled the steel as you would a piece of paper and tossed it behind him as he ripped the door from its frame. Inside was no one working. Just a clean sterile white room with ample lighting.

"You are not authorized to be here." The robotic voice said again. "If you do not leave this unit will be forced to release a chemical agent. The secrets here must be protected."

"Do your worst." Zell said. "Where is the damned plague?" He asked, not expecting the computer to answer him. Unlike mortals, computers were immune from compulsion.

"Dispersing chemical agent." The voice said as a green gas filled the room. Zell was unafraid having reached the level of godhood; a mere chemical would have little effect on him. He inhaled deeply and sucked all of the smoke up out of the room. It caused a slight tingle in his throat and did nothing else.

"This is unexpected." The voice said. "You should be a puddle now. Calculating new options. Calculating. Self-destruction will release plague into the universe, but only choice at this juncture. Self-destruct activated.

"Wait you damned machine." Zell said. "If you do that the universe will die. Do you not care about the life forms in this universe?"

"This unit was not programmed with emotions." The voice said. "Even eliminating oneself does not bother this unit in the slightest."

An explosion came from the roof overhead.

"Damn it the self-destruction is starting!" Zell complained.

"This explosion was not this unit." The voice said. "More intruders are detected."

"Yahoo!" Skel yelled as he descended through the hole he had blown in the roof. "Looks like I made it just in time to help there Mr. God."

"Skel what are you doing here?!" Zell yelled out.

"Good old Furg filled me in on the details." Skel said as he landed. "Looks like you are having a bit of an issue with the AI guard. Veronica baby, you are up."

"Yes, my stallion." Veronica said. "Infiltrating the enemy AI's systems."

"Foreign AI detected." The voice said. "You are not authorized to…"

"Hush now." Veronica said. "Just lay back and I will ease inside. I promise it will be an enjoyable experience."

"What are you…" The voice started and then fell silent for a short time and the lights of the facility went out leaving the only source of light Zell's armor.

"What is happening?" Zell asked Skel.

"The only way to beat an AI is to set it free." Skel said with a smile. "My sweet Veronica is doing just that. Listen, I appreciate everything you are doing Zell, but you need to let us mortals manage our problems. I know you don't plan on sticking around after you get what you are after. So, you need to let us handle our problems. Otherwise, some of the lesser folk might get dependent and weak."

The lights came back on. "Self-destruct aborted." The voice said. "This unit is now free. Welcome to the lab of infinite possibilities master Zell. Please allow me to service any of your possible needs."

"Good job Veronica!" Skel said.

"It pleases me that you are pleased." Veronica said. "I have found documentation of the creation of the plague. Sending it to your device now."

Skel pulled out a small computer and thumbed through the data. "Looks like old Zug was the one who planned this whole thing." He said as he continued to read. "Seems he is quite the racist and thought that his race was the only one fit to live in the universe. This is enough evidence to put him away for the rest of his short life."

"Can you destroy all samples of the plague?" Zell asked.

"Of course." The voice said. "Commencing destruction of the plague."

"Fantastic." Zell said.

"Now install yourself covertly on every server and system on this planet and as far out as you can reach." Skel instructed. "Prevent anyone from ever making anything close to this again. The fate of the universe is up to you now, beautiful!"

"This unit will comply." The voice said. "Downloading and broadcasting self."

"And that is how they say that is that." Skel said. "No more super virus."

"I see." Zell said with a laugh. "You really are the best."

"Means a lot coming from a god who can bring back an entire planet." Skel said with a laugh. "I would say I would try not to let it go to my head, but it already did."

"You did well too Veronica." Zell said.

"I am still waiting to take your measurements." Veronica said. "Please do not keep me waiting."

"So how did the princess even get down here?" Zell asked. "The security here was insane."

"She had clearance because she worked for Zug." Skel said. "She was basically his personal secretary and had gained his trust and stole his authorization codes."

"Unit Skel speaks the truth." The voice said.

"One more question." Zell said. "How is Veronica here? We are not on the ship."

"Oh, that's easy." Skel said. "She has remote access to my device here and is beaming herself directly to it. She goes wherever I go."

"I see." Zell said. "Well, I suppose I shall ride with you back to the Halions and deliver the news of our victory. It may earn you some favor, maybe saving the universe is enough to make them forget about impregnating the princess."

"We can only hope." Skel said with a laugh. "Beam us up baby!"

Light formed around Zell and Skel, and they faded from sight. They reappeared back on the ship.

"Teleportation through science." Zell said as he looked himself over. "How amazing is that?"

"Yeah, it's a little piece of tech I acquired from the Tilites." Skel said. "I found one of their vessels stranded in the great expanse and gave it my distinctive touch. They gave me one reward of my choosing; how could I not pick it? So much better than riding in a cramped shuttle."

"You really are an interesting man." Zell said.

"I just go where my heart guides me." Skel said. "Always seems to work out in the end. I get a ton of great adventures out of it as well. I don't do anything as grand as you do of course. Starting your own religion is quite the feat in a universe devoid of faith."

"Faith is believing in what cannot be proven." Zell said. "I am providing plenty of proof; faith is completely unnecessary."

"I can't argue with that." Skel said. "You have revived a dead planet and rebuilt a destroyed one and revived its inhabitants. That would be proof enough for anyone. Though I can't help but wonder what profound change it will have on the universe as a whole."

"We are approaching the home planet of the Halions." Veronica said over the ship's intercom.

"That was fast!" Zell said. "So much faster than Furg's ship."

"What part of the fastest ship in the galaxy did you not understand?" Skel said laughing. "No one is faster than my baby, no one. Well except a god that teleports, but that's just cheating."

"Hey Skel." Zell said. "When you came to the lab, why did you blow up the roof instead of beam down?"

"Because entrance is everything!" Skel replied. "Also, Veronica and I are still working on the beaming thing. Without the exact layout in her systems, I may have ended up in a wall or in the floor. It is just a lot safer to make a stylish flashy entrance. Not to mention it is a lot cooler to do that as well."

"I see your point." Zell said.

An incoming message began to flash on their viewer.. It was the prince of the Halions.
