It had arrived.

In what would have taken any other spacefarer multiple lifetimes to accomplish, Umbraxis had manifested in the outer reaches of what was referred to as the 'Sol' system, oozing out of faster than light travel a few lightyears off of Pluto. Its antimatter core sparked and sizzled as its gamma emissions began to subside, the dark matter swirling about in space as it attempted to align itself with the orbit of the small star that kept this pile of rubble called planets together, the celestial body flowing and shifting with every pull of nearby gravitational forces. In the distance, beyond gas giants, comets, and asteroids, its target lay before it; a blue, atmospheric.  Even from this distance, life could be felt, its presence sensed by the mass of Dark Matter and energy, scanned over for a preliminary assessment.

What a strange world it was, Umbraxis thought as it scrutinized the planet which was now well within it’s awareness.  The celestial body was fairly young in its lifetime to be recognized on a galactic scale, and at the same time oddly decayed.  In the short lifespan of only a few million years the planet already was destroying its own ozone layer, and subsequently its own life supply.  Most planets that supported life were either a bit older before they began to destroy their own ozone or simply found a source of renewable energy to counteract decaying effects, but not this one.  Was this really the planet the previous race had labeled such a threat?  The entity shifted with the nearby passing of Neptune, its colossal form spreading throughout the black as it slowly expanded its formless dark, its attention fixated on the little blue planet revolving in space, a blue gem in a sea of rocks.  

Its curiosity raised with each second, it had to know more about what made this planet so special.  As it swirled between orbits, its antimatter core began to silently spark and sizzle as it began to pass bits of Dark Energy through it, each atom causing a soundless burst in the eternal vacuum of space.  Inside of it was beginning an extension of its consciousness, one it had used many times before, swirling and massing into a new entity, an ‘avatar’ would be the new form’s appropriate title.  The process took a couple hours, the matter and energy mashing together, the entity’s body becoming a galactic mixing pot of matter, creating its extension to last as long as it needed.  

Until the inevitable end of the world, the same fate countless worlds have shared before it when it is in the eyes of the Great Destroyer.

In an instant, a black projectile left the mass traveling faster than comprehension.  In the blink of an eye the small black mass was singing along the rings of Saturn, hurdling its way through the gas giant Jupiter, smashing its way through the asteroid belt.  

It would not take long for the avatar to impact the planet, and then Umbraxis’ true work would begin.
