Location: Federal Space Research and Interstellar Travel Agency (FESRITA)

"Luke, only your son who is an hybrid will be able to go through that portal." A towering man called Elijah Stokes who looked forty and had a blue patch worn over his right eye said to a young man that was in front of him.

"But how do you know that sir? All the people that we carried out the simulated inter-dimensional travel test on all exploded into bits before they could even surface at the desired location."

"So how will my son be able to withstand the enormous pressure that he would face in that inter-dimensional portal?" The young man who was Luke Thorne by name, asked with strangeness and perplexity in his tone.

"See Luke, your son has thousands of Kron particles within his body and that Vlessleract energy. Those two things are things that no one in our world will be able to contain in their bodies and not die from instant explosion of their bodies into bits."

"But your son who was exposed to a large amount of them from the explosion of our Matrix Energy Fusion Containment machine didn't die. Instead, he absorbed all the particles and energy into his body. Whereas the others who were close to the range of that explosion were reduced to nothing by the energy and particles that rage and shot about in that area" Elijah Stokes said.

"I know sir. But till this day, he suffers greatly from their unending effects on his body. Sometimes, he could suddenly feel nauseous, have severe headaches and other times, his entire body will begin to ache badly."

"I am his father, so I have seen him in many of his worst conditions. While you haven't sir. And you won't know the immense agonizing pain that he goes through sometimes because of the particles and energy in his body." Luke said.

Elijah Stokes shook his head.

"You have to understand, Luke. This isn't about him or about us. It's about our world which is nearing extinction."

"Our powerful satellite-mounted sensors have shown us that we only have about a thousand more years before our world, which would have been entirely depleted of all the resources it possesses, will implode. Our world will collapse upon itself"

"That's terrible news for us, Luke. Although it sounds far. It isn't actually. And this is because of the rate at which the metals and minerals at the core of our planet which keeping it in balance are being rapidly depleted."

"So we have to send your son to that parallel world where that strange mineral dropped out from to our world. We can't keep wasting time, Luke. We have to do this." Elijah said, stating his points.

Aii!

Luke sighed.

"Alright. I will talk to him." He said.

"Good!" Elijah Stokes said and began to rub his beard.

Then before he could leave Luke's presence to go attend to other things, Luke suddenly said "And I want you to please talk to General Evans for his permission to implant the T-612 Dominator in my son's body"

Elijah Stokes's eyes widened in shock from Luke's request.

"What? That's a multi-trillion dollar project that you want to put into your son's body. I really don't know if General Evans will agree to that."

"However, I understand why you asked that. So I will help you talk to him. And I believe he will agree to it. Just keep your mind at rest and do your best to convince your boy." Elijah Stokes said and then turn around to walk to the exit door so he could leave the agency.

Although Luke was happy that the T-612 Dominator would be implanted into his son's body, he was still however unhappy with what the Station Lieutenant just asked him to do; to send his son to a far and distant world that's believed to be parallel to theirs.

But that was his only son the lieutenant wanted to send on some highly dangerous mission to some really faraway world that they had not even the slightest idea about.

Aii!

Luke sighed again.

Then he turned around to go meet his son, Maxwell Thorne, where he and many others were being trained in close-quarters combat by their combat instructors.

He entered into a Jet Pod and pressed a certain button.

And as soon as the button was pressed, rubber straps shot out of some mini-hatches in the pod and wrapped around Luke to secure him in place.

Swoosh!

Immediately the rubber straps bound him in place, the Jet Pod shot out at extreme speed towards a certain distant place where his son and many others were being trained.

Many minutes later when the Jet Pod arrived at the location where his son was been trained, Luke came out of the Jet Pod when it doors automatically swung open for him.

Then he walked into the large training facility where his son and many others were being heavily trained in combat.

Max, which was also short for Maxwell, perceived his father's scents from far away and then began to search the whole place for him using his sharp and powerful vampiric vision.

And when saw his father, he immediately went to meet him.

"Dad, what are you doing here?" He asked with strangeness radiating off of his question.

His father had never come in here before to see him. So he was surprised to see his father in here.

"Son, I need to speak urgently with you. I know this is going to be very hard for you. But I want you to know that if you ever do this, you will be immortalized."

"People on the surface of this planet will surely worship you as their savior. You will become like a god amongst us. I know you will want that, right?" Luke asked with a smile in his face, trying to fully capture his son's interest.

Max's stare of astonishment intensified.

"Really?!" He asked.

"Yea" Luke replied.

"Hmm. Alright dad. Please go on." Max said.

Then his father, Luke continued "As you know already, a really large piece of a strange, unidentified mineral dropped from a massive, unstable wormhole to our world. But this mineral was tremendously useful to us. We could use it in numerous number of ways."
