------------------Sasha POV-------------

What the fuck happened. I was coercing someone one moment, the next, an apocalypse just start from outta nowhere.

I mean I was doing my thing and after securing a group for transport I suddenly get angry for no reason, and I mean the piss off type. While I managed to control myself, same with the other infested sentient, all of my more simple-minded troop went berserk.

With many of them butchering any of the uninfested prisoners we had, it was a nightmare to look at.

The Overmind was not responding to my hail nor any of the broodmother who had made contact with me previously.

The worst of this situation was somehow the planet was being transformed with me on it.

The creep had spread everywhere in an instant and zerg structure had begun appearing too, the ocean once was claimed beautiful, now disappeared, only leaving behind a thick sludge.

What was perhaps as terrifying and the most beautiful thing of this situation, was the storm in space right above me, terrifying because I could see it from my naked eye from the surface of the planet and beautiful because it covered a good portion of the sky with magnificent light.

As I look at the light show, same with my troop who did not go on a rampage, we could see pieces of burning flesh fall to the ground from the sky. Pieces of meat the size of a house came crashing down all around us with an untold quantity of blood pour down with it.

We took refuge underground from the ‘’debris’’ and by the time there was nothing fall down on us, blood had already risen up to my knee, as we came out of the underground facility we took refuge in, there was something falling from the sky.

A hybrid, the Overmind had made sure I knew what the hell were those and given me standing order if I were to encounter one, to flee if I was not in an advantageous position or if I was to discover a sleeping one to inform him at the earliest.

With the situation going on in the hivemind I chose to stay away from it, maybe if I could gather my troop once thing calms down I would try to capture it.

As I made my plan, one of my subordinates pokes me on the shoulder.

(Sasha) What?

He did not say anything he only pointed the sky. As I look where he was pointing, I saw something nobody would expect to see in the sky.

(Sasha) What the fu*k!

-------------Aojoss POV---------------

- earlier as he arrives in the system-

I am Aojoss, I was given the mission by Narud, first servant of the great Amon to bring a defiant tool back under his control, the Zerg Overmind.

I am ecstatic to be of use for Amon, the eternal one, the true God of this universe. The Overmind from what I know of is a tool created by Amon himself, how dare that beast rebel against him. The zerg are nothing but a tool for the hybrid to use as we see fit, and food if we desire.

Narud had arranged that I received some of the tal'darim to escort me to my destination, a carrier, and some escort.

The one in charge of this little fleet was a protoss named Alarak, he had been sent by his highlord to prove his faith in the eyes of one of the servants of Amon and if his devotion to being found lacking, eliminated.

I found this surprising since every interaction I had with him had portrayed him to be a perfect slave and his praising of my power and position were appreciated. And every time I feel like it the mood, I would boast one of my ability to him and he would praise it endlessly, such a gratifying slave.

I had traveled far to collect the Overmind in some insignificant corner of the galaxy and had the pleasure to encounter some of Kerrigan brood so of course, I took the appropriate step in removing any of the sentient creatures in charge of those, no tool should be able to think for themselves and better to only obey.

It took a couple of hours to clean the filth left behind by Kerrigan, during my interrogation I had learned that they were to meet the Overmind in the next system, this must be a sign given to me by Amon to reward my dedication.

Alarak had given me a suggestion that makes sense by taking command of the zerg brood as my slaves and go to the overmind showing my superiority, if the tool did not immediately cower before my power I would have to do it the hard way.

He shows another suggestion that he would assault the enemy if there would be reinforcement coming in while I assumed the control of the swarm. It was a great plan in my eye since I would be easy to prove my worth to Amon as one of his greatest servants if I could accomplish this.

So when I went in the system, I saw the zerg fleets engaging to some irrelevant humans. If only I have seen that zerg sized planet, I would have been careful and think the of another approach again, which won’t lead to my downfall, but at last, my pride has blinded me.

So when the Overmind had to audacity to speak to me. I of course foolishly projected my glorious being to all to see that it would surely see my greatest and become an obedient pet.

Then I could sense confusion coming from it so I projected my power offering them to become the slave of the most glorious god Amon through me and if they still resist, I just had to force them by just absorb their pathetic and insignificant life to better serve Amon, that the plan at first

For a moment after I spoke, there was silence all around as if time had stopped, then a wave of pure hatred wash over me, energy coming out of nowhere which was shredding the broods I am controlling, the Leviathan I was in, was push on the surface of the planet by an unseen force, as the fall happen the leviathan was torn into piece, only leaving me alone as I made landfall.

As I stood up from the grounds, I unleashed a psionic blast and roared in defiance.

(Aojoss) Who dare!?!

This content has been misappropriated from Royal Road; report any instances of this story if found elsewhere.

As the dust and other debris was pushed away I saw something in the sky.

(Aojoss) By Amon what is that!

-----------3rd pov---------

The space surrounding the planet had been covered in large space cloud which stretching across the system, covering every planet, moon, and asteroids.

The directorate fleets who were still here were unable to move their ship in order to flee, and any tentative made would only result in damage to the truster.

All of the planets in the system and moon had begun the infestation process and in the asteroid belt, mutalisk nests were constructed.

But this is not was made Aojoss and Sasha to be surprised.

It was, in fact, the gigantic singular eye amongst the space clouds looking down to the hybrid. Formed with many different types of energy make the eye seemed to radiate the light of a star, and it had a look of pure hatred looking at the hybrid.

In the Iris of the eye, one could see a human-shaped body, so tiny when compared to the eye surrounding him but it was the true incarnation it had yet completely form itself.

If one looked at what was around the eye, he could see all of the essence gathered by the swarm taking shape of animal and creature of all shape and size, starting from the tiniest insect to the gargantuan space faring monster, also body of men and women took shape amongst the myriad of shape, each having the appearance of the many original being before their infestation.

As this happens, the foolish pet of Amon began to sprout bullshit about it was his destiny to serve Amon for eternity and it should be an honor of the Overmind to be his instrument for his ascension.

Then a booming voice was heard across space reaching all the way to the koprulu and beyond, then image invaded the mind of every sentient being of the galaxy.

(Overmind) your race is nothing more than an insignificant speck of shit, created by an asshole who suffering from a god complex that has been stuck in that shithole of dimension for an eternity.

Aojoss was then struck by a beam of light lifting him and spreading his every limp, he tries to struggle but somehow he still can’t move a single muscle.

(Overmind) and since Narud promised you immortality as a reward for your service, I shall grant it to you instead.

The body of the hybrid began to morph, reshaping itself under the will of the Overmind to becoming something else, Aojoss begin to panic and struggle more using every trick he knows with psionic power, halfway there he notices the psionic power of him were gone, so are his claw, fang, carapace and tentacle, only leaving behind a soft looking creature with a vague resemblance of the former hybrid.

(Overmind) congratulation Aojoss for you being a hybrid trash pet in the service of Amon. You are now an immortal creature incapable of dead, every cell in your body will be able to regenerate you endlessly.

The Overmind had told this with so much sarcasm it was painful to hear it. He then proceeds with a voice with a lot more hatred in it.

(Overmind) As for punishment for pissing me off, you will only know pain until the end of time.

The Area surrounding of the hybrid was in speed up time bubble with a dozen of zergling in it. they proceeded to devour the immortal, then again and again, and again, and again, and again, and again, and again, and again, and again, and again, and again, and again, and again, and again, and again. Then he was introduced to a new terrifying way to feel pain, corroding his mental, and also prevent him from going crazy while still aware of everything to feel this eternal terror.

All of this was broadcasted in the mind of every mind in the galaxy. The view changed and was now looking directly into the overmind eye, burning his image into the mind of untold numbers. It spoke with a regal tone

(Overmind) I, the Overmind of the zerg and the commander of ships large enough to block out the light of a star, hereby make my vow. In the future, anyone that dares to lay a finger on my children shall face the wrath of my entire swarm. Take out one of us, and millions more will rise and strike you down. Destroy one ship, and fleets will rise up against you. So, enemies of the swarm, I suggest you think twice about standing up against me, for the price is beyond your imagination. Let this abomination be a warning.

The hybrid was ripped into the tiniest piece, to only be reform into a screaming heap of flesh.

(Overmind) But to my loyal allies, to those that side with me, I will consider you my families. I will protect you with everything I have and I will hunt down anyone that hurts you.

(Overmind) Join me and live forever or fight me and die. Your choice. For your own sake, choose wisely.

As with that, the connection to everyone mind ceased.

10 min later

---------------Overmind POV----------------

(Overmind) FU*K! (insert foul language that would make a sailor blush)

Ever since I ceased the broadcast, I had not stopped repeating this mantra over and over.

The hybrid had managed to make me mad, insanely so. I had managed to stay relatively sane by taking care of the zerg, by loving them and seeing them as a cute child. Each of them had their own trait and personality that make them so charming to me.

But that shitstain (insert the sound of a hundred baneling detonating on Aojoss and him screaming) had turned the broods into mindless being with their will being bound to Amon will.

That managed to make me lose my sanity.

My power had changed ever since. I was pulling a lot of power out of the void so much that I had to use it somehow, and at that time, spreading my awareness as far as I could be the best ideal I could think other than convert energy to matter since that technique was already capped from the start.

But I fuck up again, connecting my mind to every sentient being did allow me to burn the excess energy but now I am pretty sure the dominion and the golden armada are preparing to go to war against me. I must have traumatized every child in the galaxy … meh, they not mine, not my problem.

The power that came from the void was mixing with my power in a strange way. At first, when I regained my sanity, I was afraid it was Amon doing some underhanded trick to assume control, but it had no taint of his presence coming from it.

And I am pretty sure the geas would protect me if he did. But no, it was more gentle than Amon but as powerful as him, maybe Ouros?

But for now, I have a bag of screaming flesh to mind rape, where the fuck did he come out from and is Narud around there ?.

Oh well, that is disappointing, Alarak had to hull this ass from the Koprulu sector …. Wait Alarak?

My attention immediately began to search for a ship anywhere near here.

The Defense fleets in this system are all dead on board from their brain melting. Oops, I should be careful with releasing that much energy.

A lone Terran ship coming from the dominion space with a powerful psionic presence on board will check later.

Maybe this wa--- no, way too far, that Kerrigan psionic signature and she is leaving the Hyperion for Char.

Ah there you are, still in the next system and he is preparing to leave? Oh, this won't do.

-------------Alarak POV------------

Good riddance, oh did I enjoyed seeing the fate of that miserable creature.

In all honesty, I wanted nothing more than to kill this creature for the entire trip in this backwater sector, but it has been an enlightening experience, just not the one Ma’lash wanted me to have.

Nuroka had approached me recently, he had told me his intention to challenge Ma’lash in Rakshir and wanted my support, but I had been sent away along Ji'nara by Mal’lash before the challenge was issued. He had told me some concerning thing about Amon, at the time I only thought of him as a fool, but the hybrid had raised many questions.

That creature was not a Tal’darim who had ascended like the ancient promise of Amon, it was nothing more than a lie, the Terran station I had picked him up was his birthplace, and was only a couple month old.

Amon had pissed on our tradition and belief from the beginning of our society.

As of right now, I was planning the best way to kill Amon, I had to kill that fool Ma’lash since he had to know this after all. After this, I will take control of the death fleet and kill that traitorous god.

I order to return to Tal’darim space but as my follower did their task alarm started to scream.

A wormhole opens up in the intended direction, releasing a psionic charged gas similar to terrazine, soon after tentacles came out grabbing my ship and my escort suddenly, pulling them into the wormhole.

I opened fire with the carrier guns and drone and managed to destabilize the wormhole, forcing it to close, cutting the tentacle holding my ship.

I stood on the bridge alerted, it must be the Overmind coming to clean loose end, I see a zealot next the main console who look confused.

(Alarak) Report!

(Zealot) Sir! We just lost the fleet.

Before I could respond, news wormhole opened all around my ship. Tentacles sprouted from every one of them to get a hold on my ship.

(Alarak) I will not die before I had my vengeance, prepare emergency warp!

But the ship never had the chance to leave, the tentacles entering the hull would split into smaller one grabbing Tal’darim one by one and pulling them into the wormhole.

After a mere minute there no one left on the ship.

----------Overmind POV-------------

I just gathered all the protoss of the tal’darim fleet and solved them into pods, it was high time for me to look at the protoss essence.

There were vanguards in that lot but I had pulled them out from their chassis.

In their pod, I removed their armor like Alarak full body armor, it would be in the way of what I wanted to do.

The hybrid had given me some base on what to do to reproduce one but if one were to look at the minute detail, it was clear that their engineering had a flaw or maybe it was intentional, who knows. Their design was power before anything else and leave regeneration deal with the damage, that would mean they have a limited lifespan, there only so much high-level regeneration a body can handle before errors started showing up like tumor and such.

The living punching bag I created was built from the ground up to allow this process to extreme decree but it to will one day stop regenerating if I don't correct those errors.

Oh so much work to do happy dance, I have a true hybrid to create and solve in Narud throat. I am getting so many ideas on how to do this.

And let hope working would change my mood, if not Alarak reforged body will be one of a monster.
