But Ben, strengthened by his Anodite powers, stood firm. His mind was shielded by pure energy, which no one can break it.
"I've dealt with mind games before, Sinister," Ben said calmly, his eyes glowing with Anodite light. "Your tricks won't work on me."
Frustrated, Sinister changed tactics. He raised his hands and launched a powerful blast of energy using telekinesis, aiming to crush Ben with raw force.
Again didn't flinch. He tapped into Chromastone's powers, transforming into his glowing crystal form.
The energy slammed into him—but instead of harming him, it was absorbed. His body pulsed with bright, contained power.
"You're not the first to underestimate me," Ben said coolly, now radiating energy from every part of his crystalline body.
Sinister, caught off guard, took a step back, then clenched his fists and pushed harder.
He summoned glowing energy constructs, massive and sharp, surrounding Ben from all sides, ready to strike.
But Ben remained calm.
As the constructs launched forward in a synchronized attack, he subtly activated Energy Redirection, channeling all of Sinister's telekinetic energy into his own body.
The power flowed into him like a storm—but Ben held steady, absorbing and controlling it.
With a surge of brilliant light, he stood tall—untouched, unstoppable.
Seizing the moment, Ben redirected the energy, which has been absorbed now, towards Mr. Sinister.
However, Sinister, using his shape-shifting abilities, contorted his form, narrowly evaded the upcoming attack. His cellular control allowed him to regenerate from any injuries sustained.
Sinister then summoned his formidable team, the Elite Mutant Force, to join the battle.
"Elite Mutant Force, show him what price he needs to pay, by standing in my way!"
Dark Beast, Cyclops, Havok, Aurora, Northstar, Amazon, and Cannonball attacked Ben, each unleashing their unique powers in a coordinated assault.
Dark Beast, unleashed mutated tendrils towards Ben. Cyclops and Havok synchronized their optic blasts, creating a blinding display of energy.
Aurora and Northstar while attacking Ben, using their speedster ability.
While Amazon and Cannonball soared through the air, aiming their formidable strikes.
Ben stood in his place, he didn't move any little bit. He easily absorbed all the energy attacks. His body flew here and there with the attack of Cannonball and Amazon, but it was not damaged even a little bit.
"You're outmatched, Tennyson. You will soon be beaten," Sinister taunted him.
Ben, glowing with absorbed energy, calmly responded, "The ant no matter how much stronger they become, they will always be an ant."
Dark Beast sees that his attacks were not harming Ben any bit.
The combined optic blasts of Cyclops and Havok were absorbed easily by Ben.
Cyclops shouted at him in panic, "You can't absorb everything, Tennyson! This is the power of mutants!"
Havok also agreed, "Resistance is pointless. Surrender now!"
But Ben didn't even care about them. His anodite powers already can absorb the hell force, so what little this energy attack was.
"I will show you the real powers," He shouted, and using his Anodite powers, he combined their energy attack in a ball shape.
"What are you going to do?" Sinister was shocked seeing the energy ball in Ben's hand, he felt that this energy ball touched him. Maybe, he will die.
Ben replied in a mocking tone, "Why don't you see yourselves."
And then, he threw the energy ball towards him.
Sinister tried to dodge it, but he was unable. The energy ball tore through him, and the villain began to evaporate under the power of the energy ball.
Sinister even used his healing powers to heal himself. But he soon realize, futility of his resistance, and was witnessing his own demise.
His attempts to teleport away only accelerated the process, as he continued to evaporate.
Realizing the inevitable, Sinister, in his fading moments, acknowledged his defeat.
"Although you have killed me, I have considered this situation, and Vulcan will take revenge for me." He whispered before he completely evaporated, leaving no trace behind, erased from the universe.
When the energy dispersed, Ben descended from the sky. The Elite Mutant Force, witnessing the demise of their leader, hesitated, and didn't know what to do. They don't know what is going to happen with them.
Dark Beast, Cyclops, Havok, Aurora, Northstar, Cannonball, and Amazon exchanged glances, uncertain of their fate.
On the heroes side, the X-Men, S.H.I.E.L.D., Fantastic Four, and Spider-Man regrouped, seeing the situation and tending to the wounded.
They were tense a little, but also relieved that Sinister was defeated.
While everyone was in his own tension what to do next.
But then, a powerful sound appeared, and with it. Everyone again became tense.
And looking towards the sound, they see, it was Vulcan, the long-lost brother to Summer and Alex.
OUTER VOID
At the same time on the Outer Void, Oblivion and Death found some of Ben's information.
"So, his first show of powers was when he killed the Apocalypse," Death mentioned, while seeing the complete scenario of the first mutant Apocalypse, how easily he burnt by fre in front of Ben.
"Yes, and he already killed the Galactus, devourer of the planet, while taking the same powers of Galactus." Oblivion agreed with Death, seeing the scenario when Ben became Belactus and killed Galactus.
"Most important, he was even able to kill Mephisto, it's really a great feat till now," Death continued the investigation, while also seeing when Ben killed Thanos.
"And from here he gets the Interstellar Harley, and takes over the Cosmic Ghost Rider powers. It looks like we need to meet him." Oblivion comments, while showing interest in Ben.
"But, where he comes from, and how much he has powers, we still don't know, and for knowing about it, we need to invite our other counterparts," Death said, mentioning the invitation to other of their siblings.
"I don't like them, but it's okay for this situation," Oblivion agreed, although he fought with the other siblings. But there is no problem in meeting for this situation.
UNIVERSE 1295
Havok and Cyclops, surprised by their brother's arrival.
"Brothers," Vulcan said with a nod, and asked. "I received a message from Mr. Sinister. What happened here?"
Havok, still recovering, explained him how Ben appeared here and killed the Mr. Sinister. Now they are going to be sent to prison by the heroes' team.
"I see," Vulcan nodded, hearing it, his gaze turning towards the recovering Elite Mutant Force.
"It seems our family has faced a formidable foe. We'll deal with this together."
"Enough of this hesitation," He shouted, his energy overflowing around him. "We're mutants, and we don't bow to anyone."
The Elite Mutant Force, initially uncertain about their fate, now found relief with Vulcan's arrival.
Dark Beast, Cyclops, Havok, Aurora, Northstar, Cannonball, and Amazon stood with renewed vigor.
While the X-Men, S.H.I.E.L.D., Fantastic Four, and Spider-Man became tense, unsure of Vulcan's intentions.
Vulcan's gaze focused on the opposing forces and Ben.
"You thought this was over? We're just getting started."
Ben looked at the Vulcan with a funny expression.
"So you want to take revenge for Mr. Sinister, well try it," He calmly answered, ready to defeat him like others.
"Who is he?" Peter asked Jean Grey.
"Vulcan was the forgotten third Summers brother," Jean explained to him, she knew his history.
With a deep breath, Jean Grey decided to tell them about his history.
She continued, "When the parents of Scott and Alex Summers were kidnapped by the alien race Shi'ar, it was believed that Katherine Summers was pregnant at the time. Tragically, D'Ken, the Majestor of the Shi'ar Empire, seemingly killed Katherine and the unborn child."
"However," she paused, before continuing, "The child survived. Vulcan was aged to adolescence in an incubation accelerator and kept in captivity."
"When Apocalypse and his Horsemen attacked the Shi'ar empire, they freed the Vulcan."
"Mr. Sinister, recognizing Vulcan's lineage through DNA, freed him from prison along with Deathbird."
Jean explained, showing him the details. "With Apocalypse's blessings, Vulcan and Deathbird fell in love and were ready to be married."
"After the wedding, Vulcan does the first thing, and he kills D'Ken, shocking the entire Shi'ar Empire. He removed D'Ken's crown and proclaimed himself as the new Shi'ar Majestor."
"With Mr. Sinister's influence, Vulcan extended his hands toward the Inhumans," Jean explained, recounting the disrupted marriage of Crystal and Ronan the Accuser, a event intended to unite the Inhumans and Kree.
The Imperial Guard and Shi'ar, under Vulcan's command, violently interrupted the ceremony.
"Gladiator leading the assault on the Kree. He defeated Black Bolt with some assistance from White Noise, and Empress Lilandra was taken captive during the battle."
"Despite Ronan's efforts, he fell victim to a double team by the Imperial Guard."
"Medusa vowed that the Shi'ar would pay for their actions, it was the beginning of the Shi'ar-Kree war," Jean continued, telling him the details, which they had never known.
"Meanwhile, when Gladiator went to deliver Lilandra to Emperor Vulcan, his loyalty unexpectedly shifted. He betrayed the Vulcan and pledged his allegiance to Lilandra."
