Shattering Humanity-Chapter 120: The Omnipotence N-Eye
From the side woods of the off ramp, heading towards Roronora City. The alien snow is falling. Even though it has been constantly falling for more than 3 years now, there is only a slight coating that covers the asphalt and grass.
Saku emerges from behind a tree and is pulling up his sweatpants after a piss.He joins the rest of the Izanami Division that is currently using the tall, condensed trees for cover.
Dom is still fuzed with one of the enemy soldiers, but he is struggling to keep the form contained and under control.
The fuzion has a 2nd Stage with an oscillating blue and purple aura. The combined body of the two men is twitching, and his body is lightly pulsating with the light that usually engulfs the fuzed body to begin the meiosis-like process to separate them.
Dom: "Aye, I ain’t gunna lie, this is getting hard to hold in. Like a bad shit that I really need to take. I guess one hour is my current time limit."
A smaller, lonesome Iceman appears from the trees and Itsuka cuts it down with no effort at all.
Saku looks over at his goofball Gunner and chuckles.
Saku: "Go ahead. You can separate with that scrub. He’s got no weapons on him and I dare him to pop off his 2nd Stage. The only thing he’ll do is give me another ability."
The fuzed body glows bright white and the bodies begin to separate.
Saku: "His boss will be here in a few minutes. She thinks she’s gunna catch me slippin’."
Itsuka: "So that woman actually used her powers of omnipotent knowledge to spy and intrude on your existence. Which in turn, makes the claircognizance of your Anjell Eye let you know that you had randomly received the knowledge of the universe as an ability? And here I thought the ’collective memory’ of Scylia’s clones was kind of wild."
Saku smirks at her and playfully teases her interest in HIM and his ability.
Saku: "hehe. Nerd."
Itsuka blushes and twirls her hair in embarrassment while Saku quietly laughs it off then shakes his head in disappointment.
Saku: "Not everything, but you actually made it more clear of a description than the eye first gave me. Meteorically, with the ability, the Don and I can ’hear a tree fall in a forest with nobody around’. If we truly were ’omnipotent’ and untouchable like an actual ’God’, we could stop the tree from falling in the first place. She would’ve known not to use her ability on me to intrude on my life. Resulting in accidentally giving me the incredibly useful ability to counter her until the very last second. Using this power to try defeating each other is nearly impossible."
Dom and the captive both wake up next to Taylor. The giant man is sitting against a tree, eating a family sized bag of white cheddar popcorn. There are a few unopened, family size bags of chips next to him.
The ’hostage’, with his teal left eye and right IceEye, looks at his unbound hands, then looks around at the group not paying any attention to him. A gun gets put up to the back of his head to let him know not to try anything funny.
Sol: "Please, I’m begging you, from the bottom of my heart, don’t make me kill you before we give you back."
She holsters the gun and creates some distance between the two of them, and they continue listening to Saku’s lecture.
Saku: "To be omnipotent means you can’t make mistakes. Omnipotent beings are the ultimate form of the perfect lifeform. They never mess up.They have never tasted defeat or felt humility, and they act like they ’know everything’ ever since achieving the status.In theory, they are annoying creatures to be around, who I would hate to exist as."
Sol: "Huh, that ’kinda, sorta’ reminds me of someone..."
Itsuka smiles and blushes at Saku’s humble and truthful opinion. Along with the ’Lil Sister’ of the group continuing to poke at her older foster brother.
Saku: "From what the Don has cleverly named and from my more advanced version of the ability, thanks to my Anjell Eye. It’s the power of the ’Omnipotence N-Eye’. It’s a play on words for the term ’Nigh-Omnipotence’. This ’Don Laban’ has a very ’flamboyant’ way of naming things, apparently. The ability allows us to ’see’ the answers to every question we specifically want to know, but not the invincibility of knowing ’what is going to happen’ or ’what to do next’ in order to survive.
It also doesn’t allow me to know what a person is thinking to themselves or how they truly feel emotionally. Unless it is physically or verbally expressed. There may be some things we can’t share out loud or write down, to relay important information to each other..."
He looks at Itsuka without EyeEngaging but still a serious look.
Saku: "...so we’re going to need to just trust in one another, and do whatever it takes for us all to get back home safely tonight, okay?"
Itsuka nods and then puts her knuckle to her chin in thought.
Saku: "Laban and I have to pop off our IceEyes, use the clairvoyance-like ability and manually think of a question or a specific person to know answer. I won’t know if someone is lying or plottin’ on me, unless they’ve said it, then ask myself, or I guess the eye, ’What is so-and-so doing?’ or ’What has so-and-so done today?’."
Dom gets up, uninterested in the enemy without any restraints that he was just fuzed with, and looks up to TayTay.
Dom: "Can I borrow a handful of popcorn, Tay?"
The giga-man nods and gives his former Squad 32 member one of the unopened bags.
Sol: "How does someone ’borrow’ food?"
Ignoring the question, Dom quickly shoves half of the bag down his gullet and pulls the water from his backpack to wash it down. He takes a loud and obnoxious breath of relief.
Dom: "Tahhaaaaa! So, you know, like, what happens in the future too? Who do I end up marrying?"
The Gunner, without second thought, hands his sports bottle and the rolled up bag of chips towards the ’captive’. After the man doesn’t take it, Dom tosses it at him to catch. The soldier, no older than 25, is amazed from the generosity expressed by this group he tried to kill.
Saku: "Without the ability to see the future of our enemies tactics or without our eyes focusing on what those enemies are currently doing, me and the Don are wide open, that’s why she tries to keep it constantly popped off.So she’s never caught lackin’."
Itsuka: "If there has to be light and dark in this universe, doesn’t that mean that there has to be the ’light’ of an answer to every darkness and mystery within questions?"
Saku: "Yep! So, whatever has happened in the observable universe, I can find out the true cause of events. That excludes questions about the future."
He gets a crooked smirk and his Below Sanpaku appears while looking down the stretch of high-way in the direction of Roronora City.
Saku: "But, that ghetto manipulator has an 8 year old girl, that’s also a left IceEye user, with the ability of ’1 hour Foresight’."
Everyone gets surprised from the reveal of not only an 8 year old with an alien eye, but a Lefty like the Division Leaders.
Saku: "Since she hasn’t used her ability on me, and I haven’t physically seen the power used in front of me, I can’t use it... yet."
Sol: "An 8 year old with an IceEye?!"
Saku(nods): "Yea, and like I said, it’s a Lefty. The little girl and Katsu both got their left eye transfers from alien symbiotes in desperation for any energy source."
Itsuka: "So with her own eye ability, and the 8 year old with Foresight, this bitch, ’Don Laban’ has essentially created an impervious security system using the eye abilities. As long as she checks in with the little girl every hour to make sure nobody has gotten her in the future."
Saku nods.
Saku: "From what I’ve ’seen’, she’s been using her street and Mafia knowledge, along with the combined eye abilities to black mail, bribe, and swindle her people all the way to the top of a thriving post apocalyptic society, that isn’t hiding in fear, but has no right calling itself a ’sanctuary’."
The ’captive’ is listening to the leader of Izanami put all of the Don’s secrets on blast. Disclosing information on the Don even he didn’t know of. Saku looks at the enemy.
Saku: "It has saved people from these horrible monsters in Hell but in an unethical and lazy way.All she has to do is think, ’Who is the most recent person to talk shit about me’. Unfortunately, it’s an undeniable fact, that there will always be people who talk behind your back. Enemies and friends alike. But from the observable and questionable universe’s existence, there is an answer that is also observable."
Sol: "Okay, personally, I don’t think an 18 year old boy should have that possibly perversive power. Does that mean you can invade people’s privacy? You better not ever peak on me when I’m naked you creep!"
Saku: "First of all, I’m 19! Second, don’t flatter yourself. You don’t have anything special that peaks my interest."
Saku blushes and peaks at Itsuka. She notices him trying to look at her tone and fit body and she blushes back.
Saku: "I don’t know everything and I don’t want to. This ability is not as attractive to me as most people would probably see it. Know-it-alls like the nerd Aiden and the try hard Shelly, piss me off. If I use the power to ponder on a question, I will see the actual events that happened, through my left eye, to confirm the actual and undeniable truth that happened. I don’t need to think at all, it’s low-key lazy. I do have the urge to find out how the universe started, but considering the insanity of our actual creation, there are some things in life left probably better off not knowing.
There may also be a limit to how far I can see in the past too, but I’ll have to figure it out later. So far, I’ve gone as far back as a year and a half, when the Don got her IceEye."
The crunching of chips and the gulps of water can be heard and the group looks at their ’prisoner’.
Captive: "That’s when the Boss got her Eyelien. She got her clairvoyance powers a few days afterwards and she quickly rose in power. Now that you mention it, no wonder she never let anyone know her ability or how far Princess Rebekah could see into the future."
Saku raises his eyebrow at the casualness of their ’enemy’, then looks at TayTay as he is finishing a different bag of chips. The Division Leader scoffs and shakes his head at the thoughtfulness of the glutton of the division.
Saku: "As long as it’s a question about the past, about someone or something in the present, and has happened in ’this’ universe, we can visually ’see’ and know the answer. Instead of using weak illusions and mind games on my human opponents like Katsu’s bitch ass, I’m playing 7D chess!"
Sol: "What do you mean? Katsu whooped your ass with his fists last time I saw. You might actually need that Foresight power to see his fist coming next time."
Saku finally gets annoyed and shoots her a look. The young girl looks satisfied from getting a reaction from him.
Saku: "Kick rocks. I saw what he and the blonde gorilla were up to on their side. Daisuki, once again, lied to us, while at the same time patronizing me to try and play the ’good mentor’. He sure does like to lie to us, just to satisfy some type of narcissistic self image he has of himself and create a false sense of unity and trust within all of us."
Itsuka: "Now that you mention it, Mr. Daisuki has had to ’walk it back’ on a couple of the things he’s lied about. He didn’t need to do it to make us cooperate and it also doesn’t come from a bad place. Most of his lies have had justifiable reasons for being said to begin with. Is he really a ’bad mentor’ if he admitted to us about lying in military court. Not to escape conviction, but to fall on the sword for a more intelligent and talented man, with more potential to pass on happiness with their freedom?"
Dom and Taylor are sharing the last bag of nacho cheese flavored tortilla chips while listening to the young woman plea in defense of their ’Head Hancho’.
Itsuka: "Katsu’s father had more to live for at the time. Is Mr. Daisuki truly to blame for lying about who made the order, when he said he would’ve made the same call as the appointed First Lieutenant? Katsu’s family name never crossed the mind of Mr. Daisuki until he saw the old military knife, because of the Mountains ’one name documentation’ policy. It’s actually an amazing result from the probability of possibility. That one of his students he would be mentoring in the apocalypse, is also the son of the man he took the 300 year fall for."
Saku blushes with his arms folded and is looking up at the sky, at a flying object in the incredibly far-off distance.
Saku: "I guess, but forget about that shit for now. Before I went piss, I saw Katsu and Shelly finish a 2v2 against low decorative ranked and unimpressive HFF soldiers.Katsu and Shelly being in different dimensional levels of strength, indirectly killed their opponents."
Saku looks over at Sol, the only non-IceEye user in his Division.
Saku: "Shelly also learned how to ’absorb this snow’ and convert it into a type of physical energy and extreme focus energy."
Itsuka: "Like TayTay’s ability to get energy from the sun!?"
Saku nods. He looks at the helicopter approaching them, still a few miles away. He looks back at Sol.
Saku: "You two better learn how to do that shit more often. It looked like she had to meditate or concentrate on the ’energy flakes’ around her to begin absorbing them effectively. Even when I ask my ’Omnipotence N-Eye’, all it shows is air carrying moisture and ’other forms of energy’ into the clouds. Only resulting in more snow falling, with no other context. See, a fully omnipotent IceEye would know the complete answer."
Sol: "Are Shelly and Katsu okay?"
Saku lets out a long sigh.
Saku: "The feral bitch knocked her battered opponent far out into the ocean using that snow energy and the sharks finished the defeated woman for lunch. I hope they attacked the head first. I’m only half joking here, but if Friend can get an alien eye, I wouldn’t doubt the possibility of a shark being able to bring one of those eyes into the open ocean with it."
