Chapter 2: A cosmic birth

<p>...<br/>In a place filled with darkness, darker than the void itself. Laid a huge glowing ball of light.<br/>The ball of light emitted a brilliant radiance that cut through the surrounding darkness, illuminating the space around it. <br/><br/>Its vibrant glow seemed to defy the very nature of the void, creating a stark contrast between light and darkness. The ball of light pulsed and shimmered, captivating anyone who gazed upon it.<br/><br/>As the light radiated from the ball, it revealed intricate patterns and swirling energies within its core.<br/><br/>It was as if the ball contained the essence of creation itself, brimming with untapped power and infinite possibilities. Those who approached could feel its warmth, a comforting presence in the desolate darkness.<br/>That is, if they're able to approach it without their soul getting burned from the heat that the ball of light is releasing. <br/><br/>Indeed, the intensity of the ball of light's radiance was not only blinding but also carried an immense heat that could consume those who approached without caution. Its scorching brilliance acted as a barrier, preventing it from being destroyed before it hatches.<br/><br/><br/>However, after some time, the ball of light started to shake violently.<br/>As the ball of light convulsed with a sudden and intense energy, its trembling intensified, causing the runes on its surface to blaze with an unprecedented brilliance. <br/><br/>The heat emanating from it surpassed anything previously witnessed, rivaling the scorching intensity of the sun's core.<br/>But abruptly, as if commanded by an unseen force, the ball of light ceased its tumultuous motion. <br/><br/>The runes settled, their glow fading to a gentle radiance, and the overwhelming heat dissipated, leaving behind an air of stillness.<br/><br/>Yet, unbeknownst to all who witnessed this spectacle, a transformation had occurred within the ball of light. <br/><br/>Deep within its core, hidden from prying eyes, a shift had taken place, altering the very essence of its being.<br/>The ball of light, once a source of untapped power and heat, had now merged with a soul. A soul of a human no less. <br/><br/>No one could ever imagine that this ball of light, which was actually an egg of a celestial. would merge with a human soul, A soul which was from beyond the source wall no less.<br/><br/>The merging of the celestial egg with the human soul traveled across the cosmos, rippling through the fabric of existence. Every cosmic being, from the mightiest celestial entities to the humblest mortal creatures, felt the shift that had taken place. <br/><br/>The very essence of their beings stirred in response, as if an invisible force had awakened a long-dormant connection.<br/><br/>Celestial beings, who dwelled in realms beyond mortal comprehension, sensed a disruption in the cosmic balance. They turned their attention towards the source of this disturbance, their cosmic senses attuned to the subtlest of changes. <br/><br/>They sought to understand the nature and implications of this unprecedented merging that had occurred.<br/><br/>Simultaneously, humans who had lost touch with their primal instincts felt a deep stirring within them. The merging of the celestial and human had rekindled a dormant connection, awakening their latent awareness of the vast cosmic forces at play.<br/><br/>It was as if a forgotten part of their being had been awakened, a primal instinct that had long been suppressed in the modern world.<br/><br/>However, as quickly as the disturbance appeared, it just vanished. Mortals thought it was their imagination, But the cosmic beings, who had cosmic sense,<br/><br/>knew that this wasn't normal nor something that was supposed to happen, they tried to peek at the place where this wave of energy appeared from. But just as they tried to see through, they felt something.<br/><br/>In their quest to peer through the veil and uncover the truth, the cosmic beings found themselves confronted with an incomprehensible power. The force that repelled them carried an overwhelming aura of annihilation, a force so potent that it propelled them back at unimaginable speeds, hurtling through celestial bodies in their path.<br/><br/>Planets and stars, once vibrant and teeming with life, succumbed to the cataclysmic aftermath of the cosmic beings' expulsion. They were reduced to debris and ashes, their existence snuffed out in an instant.<br/>__________________________________________________________________________________<br/>Deep within the confines of the celestial egg, Marcelius, the had died, his soul that had fused with the celestial egg, remained unaware of the chaos and destruction that had unfolded in the cosmic realms. Sheltered from the external tumult, Marcelius existed in a state of inner solitude and introspection.<br/><br/>As Marcelius slowly regained consciousness within the confining darkness, a wave of confusion washed over him. The remnants of his previous memories clashed with the unfamiliarity of his surroundings, leaving him disoriented and uncertain of his current state.<br/><br/>Blinking his eyes, Marcelius was startled to witness the cosmic patterns reflected within his irises. <br/><br/>It was a sight that defied any rational explanation, leaving him to question the very nature of his existence. How could he, a mere mortal, bear the marks of the vast cosmos in his eyes? The realization only added to his bewilderment.<br/><br/>Running a hand through his hair, he couldn't help but notice its transformation. The darkness that shrouded his locks appeared deeper than any void he had ever encountered. It defied logic, raising more questions than answers. <br/><br/>What did this signify? How had his hair become an embodiment of such mysterious depths?<br/>The luminous glow emanating from the space around him intensified, filling the air with an overwhelming heat that threatened to overwhelm his senses. <br/><br/>It was a temperature that no ordinary human could withstand, yet Marcelius found himself still standing, his confusion mounting.<br/>In his attempts to understand his situation, Marcelius grappled with the most fundamental question of all—his own humanity.<br/><br/>Could he truly still be considered human? Or had he transcended the boundaries of mortal existence, becoming something entirely different? The answers eluded him, buried beneath layers of uncertainty and perplexity.<br/><br/>But then it hit him, he used his cosmic senses unconsciously, but could still 'see' what his cosmic senses felt. Soon, he noticed a strange planet... It looked like Earth.<br/><br/>So, he expanded his senses, but with a motive this time, which covered every inch of the supposed 'Earth'. When he was trying to do that, he felt a force fighting him. After struggling for hours, the opposite side stopped which allowed him to see everything.<br/>Soon, he noticed a newspaper through his senses. So, he controlled his senses to 'see' the contents of the newspaper. And oh boy was he shocked!<br/><br/>He saw a familiar name... A very familiar name. then it hit him, the 'name' had a HUGE role in the MCU.<br/>'Tony Stark'<br/>-------------------------------------<br/>Word Count: 1109<br/>-------------------------------------<br/>A.N: Sorry because he wasn't actually born in this chapter, but the next chapter will be VERY good!!!</p>
