Chapter 40: Chapter 40
The rockets tore through the atmosphere at insane speeds and the enemy ships weren’t able to cope with the speed and got pierced then blown up as soon the future of the Zapiens were launched far away from the battlefield.
Each of this spacecrafts had a special individual colour which was the color of the crystal the baby Zapien inside possessed, one shown uniquely with five personal colors, it was the fastest as every craft was powered by the potential of their mature energy.
Inside was the multi colored space craft was an undeniable human like baby with a diamond shaped crystal embedded into his forehead and back palms.
He quite a unique multi colored hair with half immaculate white and the other light tangerine, he seemed to be asleep and unaware of the things going on in his surroundings.
The space ships began a gradual separation parting to different destinations at the speed of light which was a reduced cosmic speed.
The unique spaceship headed for earth although was still quite far, but suddenly a ball of light appeared out of thin air and rammed itself into the rocket causing it to lose trajectory.
" Oops, to fast " the ball said as a man emerged with multicolored tangerine and black hair, from his appearance he looked like a playboy in a fancy designer shirt and white pants.
His muscles were clearly on display as his shirt was unbuttoned, revealed some stylish tattoos and and earring dangling from his left ear, he floated to the space craft and brought out the child.
" Well thank God I wasn’t late or you could have missed my gifts Ivan " he said before a rainbow colored aura encapsuled the child and fused with his very soul, " You looked more like me than your mom " he said gently floating towards the direction of earth.
" I need you to carry on my legacy in this dimension as I will soon leave, you are my strongest child so don’t hate me for leaving you alone " he said pecking his son on the cheek.
In a single motion space distorted and teleported the father and son duo straight to earth and at the gate of a huge mansion.
He rang the doorbell and immediately a middle aged man in a butler’s uniform appeared with a stoic expression on his face, " Master Carl you are late " he said unlocking the gate " You still surprise me with your speed " Carl said laughing.
The butler silently lead Carl through a neatly kept garden into the white mansion which was emitting childish noises as it was mostly occupied with little children.
As they walked in the occupants ran to Carl and hugged him about five in number all girls, " Uncle Carl, Uncle Carl, Uncle Carl " they said in a melodious union before breaking the melody with multiple questions and request which one couldn’t ever hear but he heard every word from everyone.
" Don’t disturb uncle Carl girls go and play " another voice called out this time of a young female in about her late twenties, Carl who held the child in his arm squatted and was busy petting the hair of one of the girls with his free hand.
" Mabel you still look as beautiful as ever " he said not raising his head to look at her, this made the woman to pout in annoyance " What do you want " she said still in a pouting stance with both of her hands akimbo.
" Your rich senator husband " Carl said leaving the girl to join her sisters and finally looking up to the 5’7 feet beauty, adorned in straight flowing blonde hair and snow white skin, rosy lips, pointy nose and dark blue eyes were few of her many attributes, finally to sum it up he curvaceous shape.
She wore a revealing grand red dress with a long slit that nearly reached her waist, " You are to principled " she snorted, Carl rolled his eyes and stared at her " Were is he ".
" Working " she replied, " Then let’s go, my beautiful seductress " he said care freely as he walked past her, she joined him afterwards " Let me see him " she said taking the child from his hands.
" He looks so much like you, although more handsome and I just hope he won’t be as arrogant " she commented which prompted Carl to grab the child from her hands.
" Don’t rough handle him asshole " Mabel said punching him on the shoulder, a blanket fabricated around the child keeping it warm and comfortable in his father’s arm.
After much talking and walking and taking turns they arrived at a room at the deadend of a hallway before walking in, a man probably in his thirties sat on an office desk typing on a PC.
" Carl wasn’t expecting you this soon, dimensional expedition ended quickly? " he asked not looking up from his computer, " Na, I heard my son’s planet was being destroyed so I came to give him to you " Carl said.
" I already go a full house "
" Ohh, I understand well I could kill one of the girls ".
" Nooo " the man said banging his hand on the table before rising up to look at Carl, " Well then " Carl said as he sank his hand into his chest and brought out his heart drenching the baby with his blood without letting a drop reach the ground.
The blood rapidly sipped into the pores of the boy and soon no evidence of blood spray was anywhere only the hole in Carl’s heart stood as a tale teller, " That wasn’t the main show " he said as the heart turned into two revolving silver orbs and slowly hovered above his hand and went into the boy’s chest.
" Now I am done taking good care of him for me " Carl said vanishing into dust after giving the child to Mabel who stood beside him ever since.
The couple stared at each other with a hint of fear glimmering in their eyes, they knew who Carl was and what he could do if his order wasn’t carried out, " Well we did owe him so taking care of his child shouldn’t be a big deal right " the man said.
The child opened his eyes and stared at his beholder, he stretched out his tiny hand to touch Mabel, " AWW, Benedict look his so cute. " Mabel exclaimed mesmerized by his cuteness, the child turned to the man and stared curiously at him sucking his hand.
" What do Carl say he name was again, ehmm, Ah that’s right, Ivan..., Ivan Armstrong Carl, " Benedict said getting out of his desk and walking to Mabel, " Go get an empty room ready for the newest member of our family " he added.
" Ay, he could share with little Mia " she suggested after a quick thought, " Well then we got ourselves a future heir, one we always planned for " Benedict said walking around the room amused by the child’s smile.
And that will begin Ivan’s stay in the superhero earth were he would grow to face challenges and overcome them through the gifts given to him, to protect those he loves and care’s about.
