Inevitable_One

@flucks: This, for starters:

There's actually quite a few space locations/characters, but like Q said, sci-fi stuff tends to have brief flurries of activity, and then people seem to lose interest.

This one can be tossed into the Xeno Pit. He might provide decent entertainment.

Strategically irrelevant.

Now this is entertainment.

@ren_: Writing concisely can actually be genuinely challenging.

@maverick_6: Why stop there? ;)

For all the good it will do you. ;)

@no_one_: @schlampe:

"What do you mean, 'he's here?'"

A glowing crimson gaze all but skewered the very soul of the unlucky subordinate who had been selected to bring messages to the Inevitable One, this day. The unfortunate one knelt, his gaze fixed firmly on the floor, as he held up a holoprojector displaying what appeared to be Leo in one of the many disreputable cantinas to be found on the planet below. "There is...no explanation, Your Greatness..." he stammered, "AI security sensors detected both combatants leaving the system, but gave no indication that either had returned, until this image was transmitted by an informant."

Zedracus was silent, drumming his meaty fingers on the armrest of his throne, as he pondered this new development. His servant remained silent and still, and would do so until given further orders or dismissed. The Betrayer of Delos' strategic mind weighed two possibilities: that one of the combatants for whom he had bounty hunters scouring multiple galaxies had somehow evaded all notice in returning to Eristes, or that this was some manner of deception. Either was equally plausible; the full limits of the mysterious interstellar gladiator had by no means been established, and the Inevitable One had his share of enemies, both personal and relating to his status within the Abyssal Imperium.

"Send a full squadron of Grizzlon heavy assault soldiers to...invite the stranger to meet with me," he finally commanded. "If this one is truly the same one that so damaged the moon, he should have no difficulties with them. If not, he will no longer be a concern."

Within moments, the Lord of Battleworld's orders were obeyed, and a drop ship carried the demanded squadron of the shaggy ogres, clad in heavy armor and armed with enough weaponry to level reinforced bunker, stomped towards the bar where Trinity and Ruby were located. Zedracus' glib remark about an "invitation" was solely for his own amusement; one did not send Grizzlon troops for a task of such subtlety. Without any warning, the lead Grizzlon leveled his rocket launcher and sent an inferno anti-armor rocket streaking towards the establishment.
