"That's why I came to you," Champ said. He sighed. He didn't have a clue what could have made the moon disappear. All he knew was that it couldn't be good.

Back on the moon, Aurelius woke up again. His energy regeneration seemed complete. He didn't understand why it was so fast. Usually such process would have at least took two days... Being at the max of his capacity, Aurelius decided to scan the planet, in search of possible threats to his mission. In normal condition he wouldn't have taken such an energy consuming action but, since there were a lot of power here, an additional measure wouldn't hurt. Using the newly formed tower as an amplifier to his power, the Avatar projected his consciousness on the little planet. Aurelius knew that this kind of scan wasn't his cup of tea but,for the mission, he had to do everything, even exhaust himself to the very limit.
As he searched the planet, Aurelius found numerous gigantic metropolis, full of what seemed to be... Humans!?! Even in others dimension, humans existed... The Avatar then felt something... Was he relieved by such discovery? He couldn't tell. The tower, without the full concentration of the Avatar to control the energy, started to crumble, crushed by the force of the newly felt unknown "emotion". Protected by his rock made suit, Aurelius simply got out of the dark remains of the construction,unscathed.
A simple conclusion came to his mind. If there were humans on the planet, weapons and unknown technologies were bound to be there as well...

At last, tomorrow was finally here. Eager to work as fast as he could do, Robert ate a giant breakfast in a hurry. He did not knew if he would be back on Earth before supper so he took his precautions. His suit jumped on him as it always did. He picked up his retractable beam sword and put it on the left side of his body. The last thing he needed was his gas mask. After putting it on, Nitro (his hero name) decided to go out. At the moment he was out, he saw it. There was a big black ball in the sky! Gasp, though Nitro, this must be the moon! Nothing good can come of this! Without any hesitation, his body was in the air flying toward the black sphere...

The portals... It was the only explanation for the fast healing of his powers. As he returned to where the entrance of the portal was, the avatar sensed the gigantic mass of energy. No wonder he regenerated so quickly! The portal was sending waves after waves of cosmic radiation to the moon,only for them to be absorbed by a willful host, himself!
It was well known on Terra that cosmic radiations from portal like those could be deadly, even for his kind... If one absorbed too much, he would risk the complete consumption of his essence!

As the sun rose, the moon was visible.
"Well, judging by that big black sphere up there, I don't think it's anybody we've dealt with before. No robotics, either.....we can assume it's either an alien force, or something supernatural, if you don't mind me putting my thoughts out there. It might be dangerous to just go straight up there...." Alex muttered to himself.
"Anyway, I guess I could go. I won't be taking the ship, though. If anything, I'll just be going there to scout out the situation before Skyway or anything else gets involved.....what's that?" He suddenly asked, pointing towards an object that was heading toward clouds. "Looks like some sort of robot.....nope, it's a guy in a suit." He concluded after focusing and magnifying the image.
"Should we stop him?"

"Don't worry about him," Champ said, "He doesn't seem to be causing any trouble, and we have more important business to attend to."

"Well, I'm going up there to see what's up. If something happens, I have a backup of myself here....just needs the files installed to basically be me again, which either KPG or Wakeman would have to do. Anyway, I'll let you know if I find anything!" He said, jogging away with a grin, then blasting upwards.
It wasn't long before he was at pace with Nitro.
"Hey, you going up there, too?" He yelled above the sound of the wind rushing by.

Nitro was singing :''Fly me to the moon'' in his head when he heard a voice. He quickly answered:'' Yes, I'm going on that big black sphere! I don't want to lose time because my suit only allows me two hours without oxygen and it took me 15 minutes to go! You can follow me if you want!''
Finally, he arrived on the moon. It was all black with big craters. He saw something away from him. It was a man in black standing still...

Jakob couldn't care less about the anomalies of the moon. For one, he lacks any way to go up to the moon. For two, there were a squad of heroes everywhere who had flight capabilities, unlike Jakob himself.
He remained at home, target-practicing with a suppressed sniper rifle (it was night time, after all.) He continuously trained his already-good marksmanship.
One thing after another, Jakob thought. Doesn't make sense, though. How can the Moon be covered to the point where it's invisible in the sky? Must be some kind of material that absorbs light completely. Never heard of a material like that.
KPG walked outside, fully-garbed in his suit, and wearing a mask over what was usually his uncovered head.
"HJ, any idea what's happening with the moon?"
KPG looked up to the sky, thought a moment, and said "I'm not sure."
Jakob paused, looking at KPG.
"I assume you don't care?" KPG asked.
Jakob nodded, took another shot.
KPG hummed and walked back inside.

Aurelius was still thinking about a solution when he sensed something in his back. A faint sound lost in deep space. As he turned his great mass of a body around, the avatar realized two things. First, he wasn't alone anymore. Second, the two creature who standed right behind him seemed well armed and ready to fight. Using his shapeshifting abilities, Aurelius changed his voice to a more deep tone. "Get away mortals, this is none of your concern," Even if resorting on such a low method seemed useless, he would let them move first,to test whether or not they were a threat to him.

"Woah, hold on there!" Alex called out. "I'm just here as a scouting mission, and to see if you're some kind of threat to our planet.....are you?" He asked, hesitantly.

A robot. A live functioning android, the avatar smiled under the rock made suit. He was bound to find weapons on this planet after all. "What I am is beyond your comprehension, robot. I am the living incarnation of the shadows, the dark emperor, the avatar of the non-living god. Interfere with me and you'll regret it."
The portal's energy then started to burn him, he needed to use the excess of energy. Using his power, Aurelius made his suit glow, a kind of firework for his "guests". Such cliché kind of approach seemed to work best on the weak-minded. He needed more time to think of a solution, the humanoid were only in the way. The light of the planet's sun seemed to grow stronger every time he looked at it.

"Meh. If you're here to give us a free lightshow, go ahead. If that's meant to impress me, I've seen better. You're not the first supernatural we've dealt with. I don't want to fight you....as long as you don't mean harm to us, we'll leave you alone. I hope that you'll cooperate with that strategy.....wouldn't want a conflict on our hands." Alex replied, in warning.

Wow! though Nitro, it's my first villain! Let's do this!
With a swift movement, he opened his beam sword and dashed on the black guy which was way too much arrogant.
Leave it to me, said Nitro, I'll handle this! He tried to hit the man with his sword so he aimed for the neck...

((OCC: Sorry about the strange post, I modified it.)) The android was way more advanced than what the Avatar had first thought. He had seen trought is strategy so easily. But a robot was still a robot and, no matter how advanced he was, he wouldn't be able to react to pure darkness.
Using his giantic to it's advantage, Aurelius threw himself on the the robot,planning to crush him. But then, he sensed that something was wrong. His body,suddently heavy, fell on the ground. His head was missing. The other man had taken his distraction to his advantage...Very clever.
But has he tried to regain his senses, the Avatar felt that something was odd...He had fortgotten about the portal and now is body was entering a giant meltdown!
"R..run...,said pitifully Aurelius, if you want to live..."
Sensing for the first time in many century pain, the avatar didn't knew what to do.... Retraiting to his heart, Aurelius waited has his external body released the radiations directly into the portal.
