Among the debris of Planet Blade, Infinite was slowly drifting through space, a trail of blood following from behind.

Infinite: ...*Slowly opens his tear filled eyes* Mom... Dad... Crystal... Luna... Flame... Smesh... Turco... Cristina... I'm so sorry... I know... It's all over, now... And GodJackal is nowhere to be found... Fuck... What kind of hero am I...? I've failed everyone... I've failed my family... I've failed the Wonders... I've led the world to it's end... Maybe I should of just died and rotted away back when I had the Phantom Ruby... Then none of this would of possibly happened... Yeah... That sounds about right-

Something big slowly approached Infinite from above, but he didn't care.

Infinite: ...

It was a spaceship, and Infinite was abducted into it.

Infinite: H-huh...?

???: ...How fucking dare you say something like that.

Infinite: Wait... You again...?!

???: Yeah, it's me. And I am fucking disappointed.

Infinite: I-I've tried my best-

???: No, it's not that, you dumbass. Those words... Those fucking words you said... They disgust me and everyone else...

Infinite: ...Everyone else...?

A man wearing a lab coat walked into the room and slapped Infinite across the face.

Infinite: OOF!

Avalon: That felt good.

???: Settle down, Avalon. I know, everyone on board is mad but there is no need to hit him. 

Avalon: W-what?! Why?! Did you not hear what he-

???: Shut up, Avalon! Let me deal with this...

Avalon: ...Fine...

Avalon walked out of the room.

Infinite: ...

???: I remember telling you not to give up, and that's what you're doing right now... 

Infinite: ...

???: Don't give me the fucking silence. 

Infinite: ...

???: Oh, keep that silence up and I may as well put you out of your goddamn misery-

Infinite grabbed the mysterious person's hand and twisted it.

???: Agh! Fucker!

Infinite: I've had enough... Just TELL me... Who the FUCK are you...?!

???: ...I guess I can reveal my name and where I come from... But not my origins...

Infinite: ...Go on...

???: My name... Is Volt.

Infinite: Volt?

Volt: That's right. I've been here since Shadownova escaped the Unknown. I've been watching from afar.

Infinite: But why...?

Volt: ...I guess I should also say that... I work for a company known as Atlas.

Infinite: Atlas?

Volt: I'm... A time traveler.

Infinite: What...?! Another one...?

Volt: Mmhmm...

Infinite: What year do you come from...?
