*Cosmos catches it*

The Space Marine attempts to knee you in the groin.

Meanwhile, back on the Asgard...

"Something bothers me about this whole thing, Ahrakas."

"Yeah? What is it, Kurt?"

"They control 36 galaxies. Yet they knew to put half their fleet HERE, specifically, waiting for us."

"What kind of battles have they been in before?"

"There'd been a lot of back-and-forth with the Duchy if I had to guess... so that's one way our battle plan could have gotten leaked. A Shogun spy in the Duchy's palace."

"I honestly don't think that's it, Kurt."

"What's your take?"

"That King in Yellow guy that you think is involved in this war... he's a reality dragon, right?"

"I do believe he addressed himself as such, yeah."

"Reality and celestial dragons all have some kind of mind-linking ability and can mentally hear each other."

"Uh, so do a lot of species that old, Firuthi. If they were the direct byproducts of us five, they'd have telepathy - it's kind of a necessary trait to have when you deal with areas so vast."

"Not quite the point, Kurt. You had a direct encounter with the King in Yellow, right?"

Kurt hesitated for a moment.

"You're saying Hastur created a subtle mind-link with us during that fight without anyone noticing? And used that link to leak our strategy discussion with the Duchy to Shogun forces?"

"And because you said his name he probably heard this whole discussion."

"Aren't you being a little dramatic there-"

"NO. There's probably a reason the books about him call him 'He Who Must Not Be Named'. If he's a reality dragon, his misuse of the mindlink is a very likely reason."

"Universe, Ahrakas, what are your takes on Firuthi's claim?"

It makes a lot of sense actually, unless there is a deeper connection at play here...

"One that I'm not sure I want to fathom."

"Hey, there was this weird circular display up next to the aardvark and it looked like a lot of red dots were approaching the center of it..."

Kurt stared right at Oliver.

"Little dots, or big dots?"

"Big dots, and they were kinda weaving weird-"

"They're trying to board us in particular."

"Ahrakas, by boarding actions, do they beam in, forcibly junction with the ship, or just launch a pod into the hull?"

 

[Universe]

*He dodges it*

Cosmos:”You think too much”

*I activated Ultra Instinct Omen*

 

[Universe]

“What do you think of this?”

A combination of all three. If they are beaming in we should expect a dozen crazy guys with swords and a bender or two to show up.

Cosmos:”You think too much”

He headbutted you.

*He dodges that too*

 

[Universe]

Cosmos:”Ever hear of Ultra Instinct?”

IVE KILLED STRONGER.

Cosmos:”Oh you’re nothing compared to me”

*Cosmos Judo flips him*

 

[Universe]

Cosmos:”Wimp”

Something slammed into the Asgard.

"Intruder alert. Full squad, small arms. Airborne cyclohexane. And a second squad is beaming in. I WANT THESE AMATEURS OFF MY SHIP."

"Universe, we deal with the beaming squad. Firuthi, mop up the first group. Ahrakas, get Kurt out of the way."

Kurt chuckled as Firuthi teleported to a spot near the hangar, where a pod had slammed into the Asgard's hull and several soldiers with guns climbed out.

"They sent the B-team my way. Looks like laser guns."

 

[Baron Tredegar]

*Cosmos Judo flips him*

He literally throws a few Shogun Warriors at you and falls back in retreat.
THIS HOLY VESSEL WILL NOT FALL INTO XENOS HANDS.

Cosmos;”Ok THAT’S IT”

 

[Baron Tredegar]

Cosmos;”Ok THAT’S IT”

The Space Marine had ran off. There was an announcement over the ships intercomm.
That psycho marine is heading for the ships engines. All hands prepare to abandon ship.

 

[Firuthi Dragovic]

Kurt suddenly climbed on Ahrakas' back and blew a raspberry at someone behind them.

There were a dozen guys with power swords that had appeared. The thirteenth member of the boarding party did not bear any sort of weapon. If Ahrakas had encountered a waterbender before, he'd recognize the attire.

Kurt taunted the waterbender.

"Joke's on you! MY body fluids don't rely on water! Crew, if you would?"

You have just boarded the wrong ship.
Ahrakas threw a dagger at one of the soldiers as a distraction and then charged the boarders with his sword drawn.

Ahrakas threw a dagger at one of the soldiers as a distraction and then charged the boarders with his sword drawn.

The dagger got swatted out of the air by the soldier it was targeting.

Ahrakas' first blow cleaved right into a soldier... at which point the waterbender made a motion like flicking his hands out. Definitely a bit abnormal for waterbending technique.

There was no time for studying that technique, though, as the cleaved soldier's blood shot like many needles in a flechette storm, aimed right for Ahrakas.

Definitely nonstandard waterbending technique. Way too hostile.

We dealing with a bloodbender here. Taking him out is our top priority. Those hounds might come in handy now Kurt.
Ahrakas dodged most of the blood and made his way towards the bender.
