The Epic of Leviathan

[POV Reo]

"Yes, the scans says that there is definitely life on this planet... I am getting multiple life signs from the planet" Nat said and Jean's eyes shined in excitement. ​​

Even though Nat said that there was life on the planet I still wasn't able to sense anything. It must be because of the distance but I knew for sure that there was life on the planet because in the movie Guardians of the Galaxy Quill was shown playing with some miniature dinosaurs of some kind.

"I wonder what kind of life I am going to find on this planet" Jean gushed out a little kid on a sugar rush.

"Wait let me look for a suitable place to land" Nat said and her eyes turned back towards the hud in front of her.

"Nat... Did you find any odd energy readings on the planet?" I asked Nat since she didn't say anything about energy readings. In the movies Quill used some kind of holographic device which allowed him to see the past or something like that.

But I didn't have anything like that I don't think that I will be able to scan the whole planet with my power at once. Morag was many times bigger than Earth and the orb was very small in comparison but since it must be made of some unknown metal, I could possibly recognise it.

"Umm... There is nothing odd on this planet... At least I didn't find anything with the scans" Nat finished with a small frown on her face.

"Nat, you should look for some ruins" Luna said dreamily and Nat immediately started to search any ruins on the planet. Luna's idea was definitely going to work because she wouldn't have mentioned it if it wasn't going to work.

"I got something but there is a problem too" Nat said and pulled the AI created picture of the ruins on the screen. It was definitely the temple where Quill found the Power Stone.

"What is the problem?" I asked Nat.

"It is submerged under water... and I mean a lot of water" Nat finished and pulled up another AI created picture of the ruins submerged under a few kilometres of water.

I frowned as soon as I saw that... It wasn't supposed to be like this. I didn't know much about Morag but I was sure that neither in the movies or the comics something like this happened.

"This is an oceanic planet... Most of the planet is always submerged under water. Every 300 years the water recedes and the ruins become accessible... If we would have come here after a decade, we would have found the water is receded" Luna said in her usual dreamy tone.

But there is no way in hell that I am going to go back empty handed. Since Luna didn't stop me from coming here that means that I must have acquired the Stone during this time in her visions.

I looked towards Luna and she was already humming some unknown song. Looks like Luna isn't going to tell me how to do it... She wants me to work it out on my own. Hmm... Let's see, I could vaporize the water but that isn't ideal.

Hmm... I could use some kind of Force Field, hmm... I can use my Aegis Shield but I won't be able to keep it activated for hours without a break. All of my reserves are still separate even though I have become stronger. It's like I am stuck in a bottleneck.

Nat can also make Force Fields but she also won't be able hold the Force Field around us for such a long time after all, she didn't have a source of unlimited energy stuck inside her.

My eyes shot towards Jean... Yes, she could do that after all, even when she was weakened she was able to stop all that water during the events of X-men 2 movie. I need her to do something similar... have her build a bubble around us.

"Jean can you possibly build a bubble around us?" I asked her and at first Jean looked confused until realisation finally dawned on her.

"It would have impossible with just me but with the Phoenix inside me it will be a piece of cake" Jean said proudly. Just like I had thought... she could do it with the help of the Phoenix.

"Buckle up, I am going to take us to the surface. Nat, can you mark the best place to land" I asked Nat who nodded her head and she sent some coordinates to my screen.

I followed the directions and the ship arrived right above the coordinates in a blink of an eye. I slowly landed the ship on the ground... the planet looked like a complete wasteland and it was also raining.

The four of us got up from the seats and walked towards the hatch. Since Quill and Rhodes were completely fine on this planet... I think we will be too. We opened the ship's hatch and jumped down to the surface... We didn't wait for the stairs to open up.

I pulled out my phone and opened the space ship app and tapped the button to close the door. This was a nifty little trick Momo had done with the ship's system and added the app to my phone. I looked towards the others and found Luna was already skipping around happily dancing in the rain while Nat was fiddling with her scanner.

"This is the cleanest rain I have ever seen... No harmful chemicals or anything like that in this rain. People from Earth will be really jealous you know" Nat said with a smirk and Jean snorted.

"Of course the rain will be clean... This planet is human-free, after all" Jean snorted once again. I agree with her but humans are still considered a primitive race according to much more developed alien races.

In Elysium we only use fossil fuels when there is no other option. Most of the vehicles and buildings are powered by solar energy... This was only possible because Momo and Fleur decided to use a technology that they had invented in the HP World.

Luna was able to find some of the miniature dinosaurs and caught them for research. Jean was obviously interested in researching about those creatures too. "Can I keep them please?" Luna asked me cutely.

I thought for a few seconds "First of all you need to see if they would be able to survive on Earth or not" I said and Luna happily nodded her head and started to cuddle the miniature dinosaurs.

I wasn't surprised that those creatures didn't fight back, they were already smothered with Luna. Luna did have charm like that around her... She was liked by everyone. After all, she was Luna, my innocent angel.

After a few more minutes we finally started our trek... Jean was calmly holding the bubble around us... She didn't even look winded. After walking for about 30 minutes we found that we were really slow so we decided to increase our pace. Three of us had the ability to fly but she said that she won't be able to fly because she needed to concentrate on the Force Field.

So, we decided that I was going to carry Luna while Nat was going to carry Jean. Nat didn't have any actual flight ability but she had found a way to fly using her telekinesis power. It took us about three more hours to arrive in front of the Temple.

"Wait can you click some pictures for me?" Jean asked and I happily complied with her request. I started to click some pictures of the temple for Jean. When Jean was finally satisfied we entered the temple... The whole place was filled with water and I had already sensed the orb made of some unknown metal.

I didn't know what kind of metal it was... It was never explained in either movies or comics but I am sure that it must be some extraordinary metal... After all, it was able to hold the Power Stone while it also hid all the energy released by the Power Stone.

Since I had already sensed the orb, I easily led the group towards the temple vault. The whole vault room was made was made by some kind of metal but it was different than what the orb was made up of. I used my powers and morphed the vault door to make a path for us.

I remember Quill used a nifty little key to open the vault. Pity... I didn't need tools like that to enter a room that is entirely made up of metal. As soon as the pathway was formed... water rushed inside but none of us had any problems holding our own ground because we were still inside Jean's Force Field.

We entered the room and my eyes finally landed on the orb surround by the safety net. The safety net didn't stop the water from entering... Hmm... They must have thought about something like this happening.

The four of us arrived in front of the pillar and I raised my hand towards the orb and orb immediately shot towards my direction. The safety net did try to stop the orb from getting out but the orb directly flew into my hands. I stared at the orb for a few seconds with an odd feeling bubbling inside of me.

"What is this?" Jean asked me curiously.

"Odd... This thing doesn't have any kind of reaction on my sensor. Its like it isn't even there" Nat said in a slightly surprised tone.

"This orb contains the Power Stone" I said and started to open the orb. It wasn't something hard... I could have directly morphed the orb and took out the stone but that would have ruined the mechanisms inside the orb and I didn't want to destroy it before giving it to Fleur.

The orb started to rotate right above my palm and it started to open layer by layer. The girls including Luna kept watching the whole scene in complete fascination. The orb finally opened and slowly I pulled the two pieces apart and for the first time I saw an Infinity Stone with my own eyes.

The moment my eyes landed on the Stone, the odd feeling bubbling inside me increased by several folds. My insides started to pulse and my whole being screamed at me to grab the Stone. Against my better Judgement I decided to follow my instinct and I grabbed the Stone.

My hand glowed purple but surprisingly I didn't feel any pain and slowly my hand stopped glowing but then I was surprised because the Stone was completely gone and I could feel the Power inside me rising but before I could react I found myself in a familiar dark place.

Looks like God called me up for another chat... I mused and relished the feeling of the Power inside me rising by several times with each passing seconds...

("Tehee" Cliff-kun said cutely and skipped away)
