WHERE ANGELS FEAR TO TREAD - Mod Plot [The Aftermath]
Who| Closed to the Spectre, Galactus, etc.
What| This is something like a "cutscene" of the Spectre-Galactus fight and what follows
Where| Near an uninhabited planet, in a star system near Braal's
When| After all the teams complete their objectives.
Warnings/Notes|
The sun cannon's blast had gone off without a hitch, damaging Galactus' ship and buying the other teams some time, but what followed was an unmitigated disaster. The Legionnaires had hoped they could defend the cannon long enough for at least two blasts, but a single beam of the power cosmic had destroyed the sun cannon and injured most of alpha team.
Then, after the blast, Brainiac 5 had disappeared. Just like that. In a splash of sudden empty space. As if Galactus had looked at him from across Braal's star system and willed him away. Jazmin didn't know if he was even alive.
In any case, after that initial blast, it was up to them. The new Legionnaires. They were the only hope Braal had -- and they hadn't disappointed. As soon as she got the word that Galactus was moving away to an uninhabited world, and that the Spectre had been freed and was gunning for him, Kid Quantum called in a threshold request to the planet where it was all about to go down.
Someone had to go and see what happened. And most of the teams had injured Legionnaires. She figured she could hold out just long enough to see before having to go to Legion World's Medbay. She brought some Legion observation drones with her, so that the whole team could see the final result of their actions.
In this, she wasn't so much a player as a camera-person, documenting what was about to happen so everyone could see. She had no power to affect the outcome of what was about to happen. No one did.
All she could do was hope it would work -- and also hope desperately that she'd find out that Brainy had simply been displaced rather than killed.
"Please work please work please work please work please work please work please work," she muttered to herself as her Kwai guide thresholded her in.

A pause.
"Did you have a part in them going missing?" His voice trembled. "Are they alive?"

He seemed to be looking right into the drones, at the Legionnaires on the other side.
For a brief moment, they saw the vision of some monstrous thing, an ephemeral flashing image of a worm-like being made of stars, curled up in the twisted, broken remnants of worlds.
Heed my warning: the end comes. This universe is where all life must make its last stand. Stop Chronoblivion here or all of time and space ends.
With that, the Time Trapper's purple cloak flared around him and he disappeared.

Brainy turned to look at his team-mate.
"...No pressure."
