This business is well ended.

My liege, and madam, to expostulate

What majesty should be, what duty is,

Why day is day, night night, and time is time,

Were nothing but to waste night, day and time.

Therefore, since brevity is the soul of wit,

And tediousness the limbs and outward flourishes,

I will be brief: your noble son is mad:

Mad call I it; for, to define true madness,

What is't but to be nothing else but mad?

But let that go.

- Lord Polonius from William Shakespeare's Hamlet, Act II, scene ii

(SKIES ABOVE AUSTIN, TEXAS, 10:45 AM)

After receiving a phone call from Miss O, Omega was on his way to his next destination which he looked down on the ground. He called on his cellphone after he he dialled. On his dashboard, there were verses written on the yellow post-its and the name Fantomex.

" Morgan, please come over here, " he said. Suddenly a mystical portal opened and a young woman in a white cloak popped out playfully.

" Beep beep, anyone need a taxi? " she asked and smiled. Agent Frost aka Morgan Stiller behind the driver's seat. Omega noticed her when he turned his head.

" We have a situation below that we need to find out, " he answered.

" Got it, " Agent Frost nodded. The black Corvette landed on the streets of Texas where he met Agents R and Pryde had come from the black van. They inspected on the streets where they saw a long fautline divided the place.

(SAN ANTONIO, TEXAS, 10:45 AM)

Lunatik was eagerly trying to type in the code symbols into the teleporter as the chaos ensued in the zoo. Suddenly, a large floating vehicles began appear with tank like turrets. A human riding one of the waved Lunatik over and made an evil grin as he greeted.

" Great! You got us past the Arc Net, now this world be ours to shamble! " he beamed. " Lord Thanos and the two Emperors have ordered us for this work."

Then, another human with strange maggot like creatures in his shoulders approached Lunatik and grinned.

" Now, our human oppressors will know the pain we mutants have felt, having to hide on Defyianciel from their murderous Sentinels! " he added.

" Good! We will do this according to plan! "

(SHIELD HEADQUARTERS : TRISKELION, WASHINGTON DC, 11:46 AM)

Walking and monitoring around, the SHIELD Agents busied themselves in the midst of chaos happening throughout the globe. Maria Hill was working on a holographic table monitor when suddenly a visual map of Texas began to show dozens of red dots and more appearing. She turned to Nick Fury who was watching the screen.

" Sir, Texas has become the most highly-affected area, " she informed and asked. " Do we have a protocol for this one? "

" They're invading too. We have no choice, deploy The Sentinels. "

(THE VAULT, ALASKA, 7:47 AM)

Looking around the disastrous environment made by the Behni and Cabal forces against the Hive, an Asian woman was frightened when she pulled off a parks with a SHIELD symbol on it. Then, she walked to a pay phone in front of a roadside gas station to dial a number.

(AUSTIN, TEXAS, 10:48 AM)

Walking around with Agents Frost, R, and Pryde, Omega suddenly got a call which he picked up quickly. The three women noticed the intensity of his voice which he seemed very surprised to hear the caller's voice.

"Nan? What?! Really! Really! " he loudly exclaimed. " Okay, okay, I'm seeing it right now! We still have to find out what's going on. "

" Babe, what is it? " Kitty curiously asked.

" Sentinels...." he lowly answered and dialled on his phone.

" But we fought them before right? "

" Yes, but I wonder why they're being deployed again. "

In Downtown Austin, Coulson and Fitz surveyed the destruction caused by the Gravitonium earthquake which the Behni and the Vex had started moments ago. Suddenly, he picked up his phone and received the call.

" Coulson. Evan? What? But that's been sealed on my order. Talk to Fury? Being deployed now?! " he raised his voice exasperately. " This could add another disaster here! This is getting worse than I thought. I'll call Fury, right away! "

Fury was in the command center when suddenly a phone beside him rang, the African-American SHIELD became annoyed as relented to its incessant ringing to pick up the receiver. Everyone looked at him and eavesdropped.

" Fury! Coulson? Mutha Fuhga...How did you get the number to the very phone! I'm standing next too? Can't you see what's going on there! " he angrily exclaimed.

" Sir, it can make things worse! " Coulson replied. " Commander Zavala warned us about making further attacks against the armored beings called the Cabal, few days ago. And now these mechanical ones called the Vex are consuming every resources and rebuilding large structures for their benefit. They attempted to take the Gravitonium which the Behni took it away! "

" Phil, who the heck is Zavala? "

" He's an ally, sir from another dimension. He's guiding us to stop them. "

" Those aliens make too much problems for almost two weeks, but we need to intervene and defend. That's my order! "

" Exactly, sir. There's more to come! We cannot stop them that easily! "

Chloe Sullivan eavesdropped at the phone conversation as she looked over the battlefield. The Vex Goblins and Behni retreated from the assault by some SHIELD and MIB team aside from the Sentinels.

" These few agents routed two invading armies? How? Who are they? " she curiously asked the man in a white ninja suit.

(FLASHBACK: WATERLOO ST. AUSTIN, TEXAS, 7:48 AM)

A small building signage, " Madame Loha, Palm Reader " was seen by some people walking on the sidewalk. Inside the establishment, a portal opened behind a curtain of heavy beads, a skinny blond walked out of it as man in a white ninja type suit wearing a sleeveless trench coat over it was watching her.

" I was worried that the unit from Satannish faction would get here late. You were never as thoroughly logic driven or purpose focused as our faction dedicated itself to be, " he commented and leaned on a wall as he studied her casually, his right foot placed on the wall behind him to balance himself.

" Fantomex, isn't it? I'm curious why such a lethal force as Thog Faction just doesn't send its own forces to deal with this problem. " she smiled.

" Chloe Sullivan, isn't? Not surprised to see you here. Satannish Faction has always been big about ensuring that every hero they can find vulnerable enough, they place one of their agents with them. And you guys are the ones who employ those notorious Home Wrecker squads, are you not? You very big on thwarting true love. " Fantomex replied with much disinterest with his bland tone.

"And you guys waste your time mocking purity, faith, and worship, " Chloe sighed and shrugged. " I guess you do it because you think it makes you so cool. We just get rewarded with the men we want and revenge on those that stand in our way! Best of all, no one watching realizes how we even steal our men right before their eyes. We stack the deck in our favor, and our rivals are left wondering what happened to their destiny with their chosen lover. Like you don't believe in God, we don't believe in true love. There is no such thing as love, just circumstances that you can created to make another believe you are invaluable to them. A little control is all that is needed to keep a relationship. One has to be made to believe they are reaching up to be with you and you are reaching down being them into their better life. Wouldn't you agree girls?"

While Chloe was speaking, the six other females had entered the shop through the portal. A strangely fur covered woman with yellowish fur and long purple hair smiled nervously.

" I barely started today. Don't ask me hard questions, " she smirked. A dark skinned girl with white teeth smiled brightly.

" Don't worry, Mina... I mean Flirt. You'll pick it up! " she replied.

" Shinobu, this isn't a cheerleading squad. Flirt has either gotta toughen up or die, like I did, " a strangely masked woman carrying the body of a large fish in a net sack hung from her shoulders objected. A woman who looked like was wearing an emerald green version of the Venom symbiote appeared and sat on the chair.

" There's no reason to harsh her excitement, Death Diver, " she interrupted and raised her hands in interjection. Then, a mid thirties woman with flowing long black hair framing her beautiful yet severe face, stood wearing a white outfit that looked like a woman's leisure suit from the seventies combined with a classic Wally Wood space suit from fifties.

" Lady Goblin, we all have to be battle ready, " she added and danced her legs in her bell bottom pants and white go go boots in frustration.

" You prepare her so carefully, Hard Money! " a red headed woman with tattered clothing with strangely nice hair laughed like an insane person which Fantomex found it too annoying for him.

" Blood Red, where's Smoak? " Chloe asked the last one.

" She's helping Ollie work through some things, " Death Diver answered.

" That's no excuse! I was married to Oliver Queen myself. He can be handled. She just takes the opportunity to slack is all. I swear, find a younger version of yourself, help her succeed and she is completely ungrateful. I even arranged for her rival, Laurel to be killed. Still she has trouble! "

" Cute little team you have here. Think they'd last a minute against Thanos? " Fantomex laughed at Chloe which she seemed too uncomfortable at the joke he made. Chloe Sullivan crossed her arms and glared at him.

" Oh please, I've taken on Darkseid! He has formidable army. He makes Thanos look like a pussycat. So, what group of freakish thugs is the purple man using this time. Because I'm not impressed. " she sneered and raised her eyebrows.

" That's just it. He's forged alliances. He's gathered up a huge army to attack the Earth. Even the Kree, the Rigellians, and the Skrull might not have fire power to take him down. And the remnants of Serpent Faction in this timeline have gone over to him. Something's different about this Thanos."

" So he's developing as a villain. What do I care if this is your faction's problem. Ever since the Harvey-verse went down after their multiverse suffered continuity meltdown a few years back, you in Thog Faction have been scared of your own shadows. Wandering the multiverse at large, looking for what troubles you can inflict on stronger factions such as ours. Thog might make up part of the Six Fingered Hand, but he's not the power that our parton, Lucifer is. If Serpent Faction wants to rebuild around this Thanos, I think they're making a mistake. In the long run eventually Thanos will turn on them, and their patron, Mephisto will suffer a loss of prestige as a result. Satannish faction only loses by helping them with that."

Another woman entered, her upper face parts covered in a black cat mask that only revealed her chin and her long flowing blond hair. Everyone was looking at the new comer as Chloe raised her eyebrows in doubt. She was ready to listen to the new comer.

" I can't disagree with you. Serpent Faction and Satannish Faction have been rivals of one another for the longest time. Any loss for Serpent Faction seems like a victory for your guys, " she added.

" So these are Witch Agents that are going to assist us with Cabal Invaders? Kinda cute. Specially like teddy bear girl with the purple hair there.". Flirt objected.

" Teddy bear! I'm a mongoose! You idiot! " a cocky brunette Remnite man in black business suit and a green tie entered and added with an evil grin. " Oh by the way, Hail HYDRA! "

Suddenly, Fantomex angrily glared at the Remnite HYDRA agent as he breathed deeply to compose himself.

" Mister Winchester, we did not bring these ladies from another universe just so you could play "The Bachelor" with them. We need their help. " he sternly scolded and continued , "Ms. Sullivan. This Thanos needs to be opposed by Witch. I think he's gathering Gravitonium to build an omniversal gravity well. And it's already it's having affect on the multiverse, parts of Fox Multiverse have already consumed into the greater Disney Multiverse Cluster. We've got places within this universe talking like The Jedi and Sith were legend. And we're getting more and more people showing up here everyday. Agent Cardin Winchester here shouldn't exist in this continuity, but somehow the RWBY Universe is getting pulled into all this as well.".

" I shouldn't exist? And what's an RWCY? " Cardin widened his eyes in shock and laughed. " I have several versions of me in the multiverse. Here, I am just a HYDRA agent who Jasper Sitwell and General Hale had recruited six years ago! '

" Old Timers are talking here, newb. Look, have Morningside dispatch a team of his horrors from The Crystal Castle. They will travel back in his timeline, tap on his bedroom window and put the fear of organization into him, " Chloe scolded the HYDRA Agent.

" Don't you think I would know to do that. But that's the thing, we tried to find an earlier more vulnerable version of him in this timeline. But we found out from Crystal Castle that the Thanos from this universe is dead, killed in the Thermonuclear War that devastated his people on Titan. There shouldn't be a Thanos here. I think it might be him, he's returned! " The Thog Faction leader blew from his nose in exhaustion and continued.

" Not this crap again! I swear! You in Thog Faction are just like my friend, Lana Lang. Some weirdo shapeshifter girl was obsessed with her and tried twice to kidnap her so she could tie her to her bed. The second time, the shapeshifter died, but afterward she was terrified that she was going to kidnap her again. But to paraphrase what I said to her, I'm telling you now. Mad Sir Thanos is dead. Dead. Dead. Dead. Dee Iyee Aye Dee, Dead. After he caused the Harveyverse to implode and caused a civil war amongst the Knight Agents there, King Mickey cracked a can of chili open and sent seventy seven keybladers after him. They fought with him and fell into the darkness where he was eaten by Heartless, or Grim, or Space Phantoms or what ever you call Anti-Monitor Shadows around here. He is no more!" Chloe stifled a scream, but she could not hold in her anger as she yelled.

" That's the thing though, he sent his minions after Brian Griffin. He was a leader in Thog Faction that tricked him into annihilating his people in the first place. He killed his Exile Soldier team guarding him and they took him captive."

" That does not mean he's Mad Sir Thanos . The Serpent Faction allies he has probably told him to do it, because they know the name Thanos scares the pants off you guys. You're being ridiculous! "

" Fine, don't help. But I've been noticing your faction building that Nu-52 universe. That must take a lot of work. Assembling the people from every time line you've conquered; National Publications, Quality, Fawcett, Charleton, Warner Brothers, Wildstorm, ... Convincing them artfully that they do coexist with in a single universe. Or at least a single multiverse, " he continued as Chloe glared at him. " What you guys are doing reminds me of a sculpture I was watching a little girl make out of nine penny nails. She was taking white paper glue and pouring it on the nails she was trying to adhere to the sculpture, kinda like how you guys try to force all those universes together into a single continuity. The glue would dry and stick to the nails, but not very well and it wouldn't take much to pull one off. Kinda like your continuity creation, everything would be assembled together into one universe, but suddenly someone would recall a memory that belonged to their lives in their previous universe, and it would form cracks in the continuities timeline and soon you'd need to reboot continuity and all start over again. "

"Glue sculpture". Agent Winchester laughed which he understood how Satannish Faction had a reputation for constantly try to fix it where the universes they would claim would fracturing away into different time lines and cause problems . Chloe was angered by his mockery, but she composed herself down.

" So go ahead. Go home. Mad Sir Thanos or not, with this gravitonium well he and his foolish friends are putting together, it will like taking an electromagnet and using it pick those nails right up. Universes will literally be pulled together by what he's creating now. So when you glue sculpture starts coming apart because that electromagnet he built starts pulling your preciously glued together universes away, don't forget someone warned you that you should have done something about it before that happened."

Few minutes later, Chloe and Fantomex lead their team to meet up with the Vex Goblins, a mysterious group of extraterrestrial mechanical beings whom were already at war against Thanos's forces. To their surprise them, they had prepared a feast plus some objects which the machines could use. Cheryl and Mina made faces of disgust as they realized that the Vex were completely unaware what to feed humans as they were making noises. They could see what appeared to be dog soup with collars and license tags in it and roasted squirrels on kebabs. There was a large sauce covered rump roast as well, and speculation was that it was to large to be a dog and too small to be a horse. Someone suggested the possibility that it might be "jogger" and all further curiosity into its possible origins were dropped afterwards.

" This food is.... Is..." Mina grumbled as she felt uneasy to eat.

" Inedible! " Cheryl added an appropriate adjective and grimaced.

" Try the squirrel, I hear people in this state eat it all the time, " Death Diver smiled and shrugged.

" Filthy Overlander, some of my good friends have been squirrels! "

" I forgot you're from a world where squirrels are 4ft tall and wear human clothes. What did you call Lorna anyways? " Chloe sighed.

" She said Overlander. It's what Mobians called humans. They're kinda mortal enemies in her universe. " Lady Green laughed.

" I don't hate all humans, some of them were neighbors growing up. I just hate the ones who act like Overlanders, treating us like stupid
