8 Fear

What I'm about to do will probably kill me

To understand this better you must first know that after my near-death experience at the hands of Kang, I started training with my powers and testing my limits so that such a situation can no longer happen.

Let's start with what I found out, first my power is a cheat

Joke aside, I discovered that once the matter of the gems of infinity is removed, I have no limits as regards my powers apart from my imagination

I also discovered that I can create a dimension, in which I can use my powers, which I have used to store my items and I will use it as a refuge, in case I have to hide from an enemy

Despite everything, I will not make the same mistake of believing myself invincible

This is why I started preparing myself for any eventuality

For example, I have modified my body so as to make it essentially immortal in addition to the fact that I have created two barriers that defend me that are always active

The first barrier has a radius of 10 meters and warns me if someone has crossed it, as well as telling me whether the person who crossed it has bad intentions towards me or not

The second barrier instead has a radius of 6 meters and serves to prevent any attack of any kind from being made inside it towards me.

But it doesn't stop there, because I've also come up with a plan in case I lost my power or they get blocked

Which consists, in creating a suit that only I can wear and that allows me to have super strength, the ability to fly, allow me to go at the speed of light, the ability to make myself intangible, and finally just because it was cool I made it similar to Green Lantern costume

You are obviously wondering why make a suit while I could just make this power mine

Well, while I was experiencing the limits of my powers, I tried to understand if losing them also brought the loss of the changes made by it

So to understand more, I created a room within my dimension in which my powers are blocked

In retrospect, it was a bad idea as I would not have been able to know if the dimension I created would cease to exist if I lost my powers.

Thank god it didn't happen

However, thanks to this experiment I discovered that the effects I create with my powers such as the barrier or making my body immortal vanish, while objects that I create with my power such as the suit remain.

Do not ask me the logic of this, because I am the first who has not understood it

In addition to the suit, I also created a sword with a very similar appearance to medieval swords, capable of cutting anything along with a cloak that allows me to enter my dimension through it

Having explained this let's go back to the point where I am about to make a stupid decision

That is, to go to another dimension to see if my powers work and if they don't work, see if the objects that I created work in other dimensions

You will say rightly that I already know that they don't work

But the truth is that I'm not so sure, since having managed to create one dimension I should in theory be able to use my powers in other dimensions as well.

You are wondering why I'm doing this since I am likely to die if I fail

Well the reason is simple and it's called Dormammu

Who is Dormammu?

Let's see how I can explain it in a simple way

Dormammu is a kind of interdimensional entity that makes Kang and me look like ants

And coincidentally, this entity wants Earth

But now you will be confused as to how the Earth survived such a guy

Well, I don't have a clue as I know about this threat from Kang's memory and he didn't know much either.

Even trying to use my powers to find out more, I only discovered that the Earth is protected by some sort of barrier that prevents Dormammu from entering our dimension

But I haven't been able to figure out who or what is keeping the barrier up.

Certainly, you'd be wondering why risking then if the Earth is already protected

Well, investigating more I came to discover that the barrier protects the Earth from destruction at the hands of Dormammu but nevertheless, he can send some of his power through one or more people

So if I want to protect the world sooner or later I'll have to deal with him, and I better be ready in that case

For this, I'm trying to understand my limits in other dimensions

To start my interdimensional journey, I have created a kind of machine that can open portals to other dimensions, and as far as I'm concerned I have on me my suit and cloak on, along with my sword that I keep behind in my back.

"Ok let's do it"

Turning on the machine it starts to light up, and then no more than a second later a sort of blue and black portal opens in front of me

Trying to go to the portal, I realize I can't move

Alarmed, I searched the room for the presence of an enemy and prepared myself for a confrontation with those who immobilized me

Only to understand that the reason I'm not moving is that I'm afraid

I'm afraid to go because there is a risk that there is something or someone on the other side of the portal that could kill me

But my worst fear is, that if I were to die my life would be amount to nothing and no one would remember me

"No, I have to stop with these thoughts, I have to stay positive"

Trying to calm down I say but the reality is that it is of little or no use, since my body still refuses to move

I'm pathetic
