15 Last Warnings, Phoenix Force, and Susan

Spectre POV: 

"Besides Miek, the moment you land on the planet grab the ship you used to get there and throw it into orbit and as far away from the planet as you can. Do that and nothing should take away everything you love and hold dear."

As I finished that last warning, Hulk's eyes started watering. He nods and starts transforming back into Banner who is also crying about the possibility of finding peace, love, and joy after everything he has been through.

Turning to Thor, I show him what I showed my universe's Frigga. To say he was enraged was an understatement, but he was also proud of what his brother Loki accomplished, and grateful to me for showing him the "vile trickery of the Norns, and their owners."

After that I turned to Logan, or rather James Howlett and erased all the bullet fragments in his brain, all damage to his brain, all brainwashing and conditioning, as well as all memory lapses causing him to remember all of his past, loved ones, enemies, etc.

He did not show any sign of this happening except for his eyes, that like fountains shed tears without stopping, greatly worrying the X-Men, until he explained what happened.

Looking at Scott, I had mixed feelings, I really don't like him, but usually he is mind controlled to act the way he does so..., I erased the brainwashing device implanted on his brain, and the brainwashing done by Xavier, then I erased all the fake or programed feelings he had for Jean. Let's hope he becomes a decent human being after this. After all, he too went through his own personalized punishment already.

Turning to Jean I erase all her limits imposed by Charles, as well as the stunted growth, and lack of control, I erase the memory lock, and the emotional shock brought about by all of these events back-to-back so that she does not lose control. I then proceed to address the Phoenix Force. "So sister, how did you like the punishment for 'He who shall not be named'?"

Surprise clear in her eyes, Jean watched the flames that sprung from and covered her whole body, in slight fear as a voice was projected in the minds of all present through the same flames. "It was satisfying indeed, I thank you for your help with that revenge and making Jean a full host, having restored all her potential and control. What would you like in exchange for this great favor?"

Thinking for a few seconds, not being able to think of something for me, I remembered my Champion and the Champion I have planned to acquire. Aldrif will be the ultimate huntress/warrior, and Yao will be the ultimate mage. Now Aldrif would have no need for a blessing from the Phoenix, but Yao could use that blessing...

Sure, she will have access to Void Force, and Nothingness/Nonexistence Magic through being my Champion and receiving my blessing, but that will not help her at all on the psionic aspect of things, except for defense and attack. However, for information gathering..., well she could work something out with magic, but I might as well get her a boost. After all I can't think of any other use for that favor at the moment, and I would rather answer now.

Wait! Her flames can do one thing I can't..., bring back the dead. But that is usually reserved for her hosts, and I want her to bless Yao, not have her become her host. Especially since Jean will exist after her, and I want Jean to be the main host. Alright I will just ask for a psionic blessing for Yao, after I have made her my Champion.

"In exchange for the favor of restoring your host to near perfect status, I want you to give Yao a psionic energy blessing, after I make her my Champion and bless her myself. Would that be okay with you?"

The flames kept raging around Jean, and started emitting a white glow as they vibrated, while that happened, we could all hear her answer. "That would be okay, Yao is actually very compatible with a psionic blessing. As you have looked out for my host, I will look out for your Champion, and will bless her with psionic abilities second only to Jean and Firehair. This I promise you, Spectre Ouroboros."

Nodding satisfied with the exchange, I expressed my gratitude, before the flames receded back into Jean.

"Alright now that my plans here are done, I am off to explore the prime universe!" I said as I entered the Earth 616 Mirror Dimension, and bolted, right after restoring the blessing of Stephen Strange.

Susan POV:

"This is so interesting" I mumble as I experiment with the dog commands.

"So, Down Boy!" Reed's entire body was slammed against the ground. "Slams his whole body to the ground." Groaning in pain, Reed starts getting up again only for me to add "And Sit Boy!" This time, only Reed's buttock was slammed against the ground, and his body followed, as he was too disoriented to use his elastic powers on his body to not be slammed against the ground. "Slams only his buttock, and the rest of his body follows if he is disoriented. Look honey, I am doing what you love most, experimenting and recording my discoveries!" I said with the brightest smile I have ever made in my life.

Johnny was about to pass out from laughing too hard, and Ben's face was twitching in amusement. 'I didn't know Ben could show emotion on his stone face, but I'm happy for him.'

Everyone gathered around us to see if we were fine, and kept asking us questions, "Guys I need some space, also can someone please explain, what happened here?" Everyone suddenly went quiet, apparently nobody wanted to answer my question, but Jean, who seemed to be the host of one of this Spectre Ouroboros' sisters, came up to me and started explaining.

In a soft sad tone she said, "This is what happened."

...

I was heartbroken, my own husband would rather sacrifice me and his own UNBORN CHILD! To save some elitists, that Spectre CLEARLY stated have no accountability, and presumed did horrible things?! 'Why am I with this man, NO MANCHILD?!' Tears found themselves streaming down my cheeks, as my eyes reddened, and my face flushed.

Hearing all of this Johnny was outraged, and was about to beat up Reed, but other heroes stopped him. After he freed himself, he came up to me and hugged me tightly, and said, "Calm down sis, everything is okay now. Don't worry, Reed will have to be left alone at some point and I will be there when he is. For now, calm down, you were just healed, we wouldn't want stress and other negative feelings to affect the baby's health, right?" He said while smiling at me. Then he said, "Jean, was it?" "Yes" She answered, "Could you release soothing emotions here please, I don't want the baby to be in danger because of all of…, this." He said motioning at Reed and the Illuminati's circle with his chin. "Sure" She answered.

And I started to feel calmer, and at peace. Then I remembered the rule book, and dog commands Spectre gave me, and decided I will put them to good use.

"Rule number 1: No experiments even instructed experiments, without strict supervision and monitoring."

I could see it in his face, the dread of physically being unable to do scientific experimentation by himself anymore.

"Rule number 2: Between family and friends you must always choose family for the positive outcome, and friends for the negative one. Especially if the friends are of the same type this evil sounding Illuminati group is made out of."

This time I could see his guilt, and self-hatred. Good it seems he really learned his lesson.

Rule number 3: You can only bypass rule number 1 & 2 if the universe is in real tangible danger and requires you to break these rules to be able to solve. If it does not require the rule breaking though, you will be shocked for trying to break the rules."

I had to give him an out, as unlike him, apparently, I cannot be so heartless to my loved ones.

"Now Roll Over Boy!" Reed proceeded to spin vertically in place, as his head and feet kept hitting the ground, then it stopped. I was left speechless; it looks like I will have to research dog commands now. Johnny seemed extremely satisfied with the Roll Over Boy command. I have no doubt in my mind, that Johnny will be my main source of dog commands from now on.

Noticing a growing headache, I decided to go rest. I thanked Jean, and everyone else for being here, and left to go back to my bed. As I walked away, I could hear Johnny tearing down Reed with his words, showing a surprisingly clean extended vocabulary I did not know he had. Listening to Johnny make effective use of his education to belittle the man who basically sacrificed me, brought a radiant smile to my face, as I finally made it to my bed and went to sleep.
