CHAPTER SEVEN: FATE.

Khan's statement brought a wave of surprise and anger to the inmates who heard Khan. The inmates knew exactly what meaning his aura carried and did not like that at all. The whole field soon was filled with killing intent and impending doom as the inmates readied themselves for Khan while some charged forward destroying the guardian automatons in their way to know what kind of psychedelic Khan was on, who knows, maybe he was willing to share some.

Khans gaze grew cold as in the dust and two purple dots glowed and he laughed in the chaos.

Suddenly, seemingly out of nowhere, a brown-coloured four-armed alien that looked female and stood at a whooping height of seven meters (twenty-four feet) charged forward at Khans' haughty remark, injuring and killing other aliens that wanted a piece of Khan before her. This was the only inmate who refused an arm wrestling duel with Kevin since she thought of Kevin as a baby not worth her time.

She wore white garments that had four arm holes which she adjusted to look like a crop top and white shorts. She had red tattoos on her body that featured thousands of different alien races. She sports long black hair that sweeps down her shoulders, she has a muscular frame but a very toned and feminine body that makes her look extremely appealing and attractive despite her height.

 She was eventually captured with the extreme force of the plumbers along with the hired help of bounty hunters called EightEight, SevenSeven, and SixSix. It isn't hard to guess from her tattoos that she had committed mass alien genocide. Her goal is to fight the strongest of each species to the death, come out victorious, and tattoo their appearance on her skin. So in short, she goes around challenging different aliens and fighting only the strongest of their kind.

Khan knew of the giantess named Fate and her story. She ironically makes her opponent meet their fate which is her, and her face is always the last thing they see. Her cell was ten times reinforced than the other inmates because of her strength and that gained her face and respect among the inmates. She is strong enough to destroy a mountain as big as Everest with five punches with some strength added but can destroy it with three full-powered punches without using her core energy. She is indeed a formidable foe.

Khan looked up as it took the giant one leap to reach him. The ground did not tremble at her landing nor did the air current change by much, her expertise in movement techniques and combat put her far above almost every creature in the universe. Kevin seeing this, gulped hard and thanked his stars that Fate never took him seriously whenever he would meet her corner and challenge her to an arm wrestle.

Khan folded his hands and looked at Fate directly into her two pairs of eyes.

"You, our battle has been delayed because of the restrictions of this place… But now, I, Fate will get the honour of fighting the next thing to the strongest and smartest creature in the universe since the destruction of the Oren Empire. Prepare yourself, Khan, the Appolexian." Fate exclaimed as her voice generated sound waves that reverberated off everything.

"Hmm, don't give me that bull. Nothing could have stopped you from attacking or challenging me all this time. You only let yourself get captured since you heard I was roped in by the plumbers, you have been hunting me haven't you?" Khan paused as if to create a dramatic feel to the scene. The guardian automatons stopped fighting with the inmates to collect data from Fate and Khans fight to analyze formations and strategies that could be used against them and the inmates all came to a standstill as well to watch the scene unfold before their very eyes.

"I have seen you giving me bloodthirsty looks, you hypocrite! Of all times to challenge me, it's now! Now that escape is a possibility! Are you mad?!" Khan expressed his anger without holding back as his Appolexian traits began to show.

"Haha, you dare call me a hypocrite. You who have crippled entire nations and worlds just for your selfish interests and suddenly got arrested by those playthings called plumbers, don't give that bull! I know there is something here among the pile of rubbish that is stored in this dimension that is of value to you." Fate couldn't take Khans' witty remarks standing, she shot back at him as their stories intrigued every inmate in the field.

"And now is the best time to challenge since you are in a hurry and would want to remove any obstructions in your path right?" Fate said as her battle intent seeped out of her body and the inmates including Kevin fell to their knees out of sheer suppression, the automatons were fine since they lacked receptors to fall under that suppression and continued collecting data.

"I am not fighting you." Khan said uncaringly.

"I knew you would say that…" Fate said as she spread out her top right arm in a come hither motion to a random spot in the ceiling. Khan's eyes flickered at that motion and didn't like what his instincts told him.

The world around the inmates seemed to quake for a whole minute as cracking and booming sounds could be heard in the distance getting closer. A black object that appeared blurry to Kevin because of its speed destroyed a wall and flew right into Fate's outstretched arm.

A black battle axe with gold inscriptions could be seen in Fate's hand with tens of destroyed guardian automatons and dark oil that were still attached to its blade. Fate's energy seemed to sour to greater heights the moment the axe fell into her arms.

"Oh, it's been so long beautiful. You know I had to steal this from one of the treasuries of a famous To'kustar (Way Big). This thing's made of infinitum and Taydenite, let's say it can cut anything and is indestructible. If you don't fight me, I will simply destroy this space and anything you desire here would be destroyed instantly." Fate said as she eyed her battle axe with a longing.

Khan's expression immediately turned dark after that revelation from Fate. He could see the axe and confirm from its texture that somehow, someone had managed to forge two materials that are said to be indestructible into one. Fate simply smiled at his reaction since she got him to accept her duel as she dropped her axe.

"Wrong choice of words Fate."

It was Fate's turn to smile and have a calm and composed demeanor as she looked down on Khan, excited for their battle.
