The Fastest Man Alive

Emperor of the Pandoran Empire

Letting out a slow breath, I leaned back onto the headrest of the bed as I surveyed the moon below the space station. Currently, the ladies and I were on a quick deployment on the space station positioned over Titan as a waypoint. This would work as an active buffer to keep any of the nasty little space bugs off the planet or any little bio-plague.

Paranoid? Sure! But the name of the game was the survival of my people as we spread out amongst the stars. Anyone that decided not to dock at the space station was going to get one warning before a missile got rammed up their ass from behind or an orbital satellite taking them out by a tachyon laser.

I was not playing with the safety of any planets that would be under my control. There are just far too many science fiction movies and animes out in the wild, would just let any little shit enter and exit the atmosphere, and then it all goes wrong.

The shifting of the warm body at my side pulled me out of my thoughts, dismissing the reports on Vodan. The planet had successfully transferred out of that pocket-like dimension allowing us to close the connection to the cosmic train. Honestly, the fact that a dimensional portal on earth led directly to a Celestial’s area of influence really had me wanting to shit a brick.

There were some beings alive that just transcended all and I honestly did not want to tangle with any of them. Yet, I knew that it was only time until I met one of the galaxy’s big assholes and got into a fight for my life. The fact that Attuma a two-bit Namor bottom feeder had gotten his hands on a cosmic weapon just meant there were enough variables around to drop on my head and fuck up the situation plenty.

Smiling at myself, I pushed those thoughts aside because such things were the spice of life when you lived in Marvel; just the scale was a lot grander. A tanned arm wrapped around my waist and pulled the body that it was attached to closer. Shifting from the orbital view, I turned my attention to the head of red hair mixed with the blonde on my other side.

Jean’s mouth curled into a smile before she pulled herself up my body to rest her head on my shoulder. Gwen let out a grumble as she rolled over and tried to pull the blanket closer to her form. Jean’s hand curled its way across my scalp as her other hand went around my waist. I was letting out a light hum at the contact of the fantastic feel of her fingers rolling across my scalp.

“You’re not still upset are you?” Jean asked as she placed a kiss on my shoulder. Shaking my head as I smiled at her, I summoned over the tablet as I decided to show her what I was working on. A mental command activated the holo-tablet bringing up the planet of Vodan.

Jean let out a gasp as she pulled the tablet closer so that she might get a better look at the hologram. “It’s beautiful.”

My chest rumbled with a small chuckle as I then flicked my wrist, with that motion, my mission report appeared. I watched and waited on Jean as she read over the reports, but that changed when Gwen started to grumble before sitting up to join us. She rubbed her eyes for a second before her bright blue orbs shone with intensity.

Her hands snapped forward pinching and twisting the hologram as she pulled the medical information towards her. Shaking my head, I settled back to rest on the headboard as one read over the newly discovered medical understanding of a new world as the other read over newly found archaeological discoveries.

Both of them took some time to review and soak everything in while I watched the moon that also doubled as a planetoid. Gwen was the first to finish, flicking away the hologram, she slung a leg over my waist and straddled my lap.

A delicate hand trailed across my face shifting my view from the planetoid below as Gwen grinded her warm core against my hardened member. She peppered my face with kisses as she rocked back and forth on my lap, but I could already figure out why she was trying to butter me up.

Honestly, if I was ruled by my second head everyone would know about using honey traps to defeat me. Returning the smile, I accepted the kisses as I pulled Jean in and she straddled my other leg. We went back and forth for a time, our tongues entwined before I decided to break the news to them both.

“I really appreciate the time honored tradition that all women seem to know about blowing a man to get him to automatically agree, but I already brought the planet and set it into orbit.” I smoothly said, causing the both of them to pause in their actions.

They both paused mid-action before their eyes lit up with excitement and they squealed. A wave of my hand changed the holographic view of the outside to that of the space station sitting over the latest planet in the solar system. They both looked out at the blue-green planet with clear excitement on their features. Jean gave me a sharp telekinetic tug, but I passed her being in charge as I scooped her up into one arm while I picked up Gwen with the other.

Turning around, I took my two trouble makers to bed one more time, there was no such thing as it being far too early in the morning for that.

A few hours after our little bedroom escapades found us sitting in Jean’s command room listening to today’s reports from all over the kingdom. As I listened to the gathered information from Sage with one ear, I read over the reports sent to my personal omni.

From what I could tell, Raven had taken it as her personal mission to figure out how the demon summoners had been able to get around the wards in place. I felt that the sensors weren’t tuned finely enough, but I was also of the mind not to go all big brother and get into people’s personal privacy with the type of sensors that were available to my Empire.

All that was in the way of me crossing such a line was a command before scanners capable of X-raying and logging a person’s last five kin, meals they ate over the last week and if they had a bad knee while also reading off the serial number from a female’s UDI were placed. With the number of super-geniuses at my command, we had scanners like that and so much more.

So even with all of that at my command, it was difficult to find a balance between proper security and being big brother. Yet, something had to give because I refuse to let demons invade once more or allow any summoning for that matter outside of the mage towers.

My woman was happy that we had been able to deal with the situation but couldn’t get why it upset me so much. They didn’t have the outside context of the type of death universe that we were in, but I did, so I was not happy with the situation at all.

My frustration with that situation was pushed to the side as I got to the report where the United Nations was sending me a summons about the new planet. I stared at the report that contained a copy of the summons for a moment before snorting in derision. Shaking my head, I forwarded it to my ambassador before continuing on with the rest of my reports; chucking at their foolishness. The only reason I would show my face to those gits was to put them in their place.

And unlike last time, I don’t believe that they will have an emergency to save their hides from me. Gwen nudged my shoulder “What’s so funny?”

Smiling at her, I turned the screen of the omni connected to my wrist. Gwen read it for a few lines before she also burst into a chuckle. Jean looked up from what she was working on and I just sent her a copy to read over. Jean snorted then rolled her eyes at the report with a shake of her head.

With a huff, I watched as she went back to read over an archaeological request from a college on Pandora. Gwen stretched out before laying her head in my lap before pulling my hand to rest on top of her head. With a hand going through Gwen’s hair, I read over the update on Vodan. The planet had already finished the transfer with proper alignment within the solar system, but also with enough distance not to cause havoc with the Earth’s tidal system.

Honestly, the last thing I needed at this moment was something to go wrong with Earth while all of my eggs were in the same basket. From what I could read, everyone in the Empire was beyond excited for the upcoming expansion. Hell, even those in Atlantis were excited and made it known that they were far happier under my rule over that of Namor.

It was honestly exciting times and that’s not even with the announcement of what Jean had discovered here. Of course, the rest of the family knew and certain advisors were in the know; but other than that, things have been pretty hush-hush over the discovery of a titan.

Yet, the only bad taste that this discovery left in my mouth was the Star Fox situation, granted it wasn’t Jean’s fault since the man had been a serial rapist even in the source material. If I wasn’t mistaken, he pulled this same shit with a lot of married women and a few men before he got caught and then tried it with She-Hulk. Unfortunately, she never got to kick his ass after that night, but she did try to put him away for the rest of his life.

Note that I said try, well that failed because of course normal prisons can’t hold Eternal offsprings nor the brother of Thanos himself. So his death would be the only outcome of his little attempt and I had to be happy with it. Jean did do a great job of immolating the man after all to the point that not even an echo of his soul was left behind so there was no way that I could complain about it.

There was a ping from the side but it was ignored as I kept one hand flowing through Gwen’s golden locks. A second ping came but that one was also ignored as well. The third ping had me finally put what I was doing to the side as I looked upwards and towards the panel on the wall. A mental nudge from me had it turned on and the irritation that I was holding evaporated.

The com line was from one of my flagships the Infinity, and this one’s commander was Accalia, a female Lycan from Australia. If memory serves me correct, since I could remember everything perfectly, her ware form was that of a large Jaguar, gold with black spots.

In the bottom left of the screen was her location and I could see that she brought the Infinity flight group that she commanded into orbit around Titan. Good, I was the big gun sure, but there was just something viscerally stimulating to others when they saw that you also carried a big gun.

The natives might think I am afraid to use it and damage the lost city, but they were wrong. Hell, they don’t even know how fucked they truly were with how Skyfox had burnt those bridges. Those bridges were so burnt the poor fools couldn’t even comprehend how close they are from a Warhammer forty K style Exterminatus.

Then again, this was Jean’s Op, and I was going to let her run things. That’s why I said nothing when Accalia’s eyes scanned the room, widen as she saw me, before she locked in with Jean’s. Good, this was Jean’s outfit, and even if I was shagging her rotten and tossing around commands from time to time, this was still her command.

My fingers flowed through Gwen’s golden locks as I listened to Jean with one ear. Smiling down at the beauty in my lap, I gave her a wink before reading over some of my business holdings. Emma, my other beautiful blonde, was turning out a fortune for the both of us. From what I could see, Emma wanted to take Vega with her as she ran with a new idea for Frost International.

Besides that report, Sage had gathered the numbers for all of the moving parts. Profits would go up about thirty-two percent while the cost would go down with the lower international prices. Shaking my head at it all, I sent back a reply to cut that profit increase by twenty percent and put the money back into paying employees more. Even if things would get cheaper with creation in different parts of the world, I really didn’t want to become one of those nasty conglomerates.

I already had my nation, my women, and all of the space travel a science fiction nerd like myself could ever want. Then again, there was also the little fact that I was already so rich I could buy out a few space Empires with all of the accumulated wealth. The exploration ship hadn’t made it to Nova space yet, but with the materials available, combined with what I knew, there was an absolute certainty that my Empire would become a fiscal superpower.

It helps to have a lot of matter manipulators within the Empire.

Humming a tune, I looked up as the discussion about the movement of troops came up, ten thousand spartans, huh?

“My Queen, all that we would need is an appropriate landing zone, or teleportation waypoint, this way I can have the troops moving out within the hour.” The commander spoke, as the holo-image on the wall shifted.

Jean tilted her head before flicking a finger at the map located on the left-wing of her desk. The map shifted to change what it was showing, the shift was from the orbital showing of Titan down to a surface view. From what I could tell, the moon had already been thoroughly mapped even if it wasn’t extensively explored.

The map shifted before Jean gave the map another flick causing a red marker to appear on the map.

“You can drop a teleportation beacon here,” Jean replied while entering a few commands into her finished work. “Then we can set a gate since this isn’t a combat situation, I want this moon fully under our control within a week. I’ll make sure to contact some minders to check to see who was loyal to Skyfox and those who were under his command due to his powers.”

Understanding what she was planning, I nodded my head as I looked over her plan of conquest. I honestly didn’t think that Jean had it in her to conquer another civilization; but then again, what Skyfox had tried to do was beyond the pale and turn about was fair play in my book. He tried to fuck her and she was about to fuck whatever little kingdom he had tried to build out here in space.

Gwen shifted on my lap as she heard more and more of Jean’s plan. Her head cocked to the side and I could already see her mind formulating solutions.

“We should separate the kids out that carry his genetic structures,” Gwen said as she shifted my hand from her hair to underneath her shirt. A light dusting of pink colored her cheeks as she continued to speak. “From my initial scans a few of them might be experiments.”

That interjection alone brought the room to silence: then the air shimmered around Jean as her hair levitated with small flares of fire from the ends. Raising an eyebrow before letting out a huff with a little frost spell mixed into my breath.

Jean’s hair lost its flames before relaxing and she sent me a smile from her desk. Gwen rolled her eyes at us before activating her own omni and flicking a few disturbing reports our way.

“Kinda already went over these with Sue. but some of the genetic structures are far too uniform to be anything other than man-made experimentations.” Gwen supplied as she pointed out a couple of sections for us to look at. Without knowing what it was that I was looking at, it could have taken more than a few minutes to figure it out. Yet, with Gwen already color-coding it and pointing out the markers, it was easy to see the lego brick-like nature of the changes.

“Were either of you able to figure out what he was trying to do?” I asked, leaning forward in my seat.

Gwen shook her head before pushing me back in my seat, “No, but it’s clear he has been trying to amplify their powers.”

Yeah, that brought a distasteful look to my face. “Alright, well I recommend that you have a minder check them out, I would hate to admit them into the Empire and find out a few had triggers in their heads.”

Jean looked at me then tilted her head in thought before speaking, “That’s actually a valid point since I did find a trigger link to a Thanos for rebirth.”

My breath caught cold in my throat as I sat forward while pulling my hand from beneath Gwen’s shirt.

My full attention was turned to Jean as a small scowl rippled across my features. “Are you positive?”

She looked at me with squinted eyes before I felt a mental knock against my shields. “Yeah, he even had a psionic location shout attached to his mental plane.”

Jean connected mentally and I sent over not only my worries but also what I knew about Thanos and what he might be up to. Her eyes widened before her hands started to fly across the control panel before her. There was a flash of red from the central control console before she sat down with a huff.

Gwen was clearly confused as she looked from Jean to myself for answers. “Ahh, what’s going on, and who is Thanos”

I let out a sigh as I read over the hologram, “A massive big bad out in the wider reaches of space.”

On the hologram hovering over Jean’s desk read this: Subspace Communication sent one way to the far reaches of space. Zeron one hundred hours:

Just staring at the large blocky red lettering pissed me off something fierce, but I had to let it be. She didn’t know and I was too busy giving appreciation to her lovely thighs to have remembered such fine detail from the comics. Hell, with how often shit was retconned before my death, how could I have remembered such a thing.

Turning to her, I just shook my head, “Did you at least stop the psionic broadcast?”

“Ohh yeah, that was easy,” Jean replied with a dismissive wave of her hand.

“Nodding, I got up from my location as I read over the information Raven had just sent me. “Alright, I am going to go deal with this, but I want you home before Christmas and New Years’.”

Gwen shook her head at me, “We won’t be here that much longer, I want to see my parents and Jean’s coming back with me kicking and screaming if I have to drag her.”

Jean of course did the very mature thing and stuck her tongue out at Gwen from her desk. Shaking my head at them both, I first picked up Gwen laying a lip lock on that had her legs wrap their way around my waist.

After a while, I sat her back down on the couch while her face blushed a scarlet red. Before Jean could blink, I was upon her, hands filled with ass as I held her posted against the wall. Nipples hardened and pushed against my chest as she let out a squeak moan for Gwen to hear.

Walking around the desk, I put Jean down next to Gwen who was still blushing scarlet from our tongue battle. With a chuckle, I turned and gave my supercarrier commander a minor solute which she returned. Turning on the spot, I ran through the wall separating the inner workings of the space station with space.

Pausing on the other side of the viewing window, I gave Titan one last derisive look before crouching down on the side of the space station. Slowing my breath, I waited for the seventy-two-degree turn of the space station before kicking off hard. The space station barely shifted as I took off at a hard pace towards earth.
