Appointment (Virulentus and Volume 0) (06-23-2022)

==Omnigenie’s Temple, Sleepwalker's Wing, Multiverse [06-23-2022]==
The Bethlehem lands at the slightly opaque temple entrance. They’re in the space between, a place between universes. The temple was massive and adorned with elegant décor and plant life. The hatch to the Bethlehem opens up, and Seraph walks out first. He looks around as he waits for the Precocious Squadron and some of the Cherubs follow behind him, as well as the Domination Here Lies Fate. Hellscream, Imperialist, and Bloodclaute all run out and talk about how cool the temple looks. Volume 0 and Virulentus try to take in the sights. The sky above the temple is full of bright lights and luminescent streaks. Stars and space dust swirl around each other and create a sight not seen in their universe. Hellscream turns around and catches their looks of amazement and says, “You never truly get used to it. I missed coming here.” Virulentus responds, “S-so this is where it all happens huh…?”
“Oh stop worrying. You’ll be fine. Polly is actually really cool.”
Volume 0 shifts a bit in nervousness and nods to Hellscream. He smiles in comfort and goads both of them to follow. Seraph puts his hands on both of their heads and says, “Yarad’s right, you guys will be fine. It’ll just take some getting used to.” The rest of the group walk into the temple and see Pollyannus lying down on their side. Their eyes are closed and seem to be asleep. Seraph chuckles as Jehv pops out of his necklace to join him. “Yo Polly, we’re here,” Seraph says while lightly tapping them on the shoulder. Pollyannus slowly sits up and gives a yawn. As they do, the stars above them increase in speed into a light show that is more vibrant and beautiful than an Aurora Borealis. They open their eyes and smile and say, “Ah, Seraph. You’re early.”
“Yeah, usually am. I brought the two you asked for.”
“I see. Then are we ready to begin?”
“I’m pretty sure, yeah.”
“Then we shall start immediately.”
Pollyannus raises their hands and the temple shifts and changes around them and the group. The walls of the temple expand and create thrones on both ends, each with words attached to them. Seraph and the others sit on their respective thrones, leaving Volume 0 and Virulentus in the middle of them all. Pollyannus looks directly at them and says, “You two have been called here today as nominees for the new Aspects in my court. As you see around you, your friends and comrades have been chosen in the past for this position.” Volume 0 and Virulentus quickly look around the room. All of the people around them are looking at them, with their unique halos shining brightly behind them. Hellscream’s halo becomes misty and smoke filled, while Bloodclaute’s coagulates and rushes like a flowing liquid inside the halo. The gears crank and turn inside Tech-Savvy’s halo and a pure white light is seen behind the Seraph. The others also have their unique traits shining brightly behind them. They all smile at the two in the center and listen to Pollyannus’s next words. “Is there anyone in this group of Aspects that object to the appointment of these two?” None of the Aspects raise their hands. Hellscream speaks up, “Cassy and Lexi I feel have done more than a great job. Their powers are amazing. I don’t think anyone matches them at all.” Imperialist nods and and adds, “They helped kill the King With Violet. Cassy silenced an entire beam of energy.” Bloodclaute also adds, “Their strength has increased immensely over the past few years. I think they’re ready.” Pollyannus nods and looks at the Seraph. Seraph simply nods in response and Pollyannus looks back at the two. “Then I shall start. Will Alexis Larsson step forward first?” they request.
Virulentus looks at Volume 0, then steps forward. She begins to float upwards. She takes deep breaths as she’s lifted into the air. Pollyannus stands up and holds their hand forward. They recite, “As the Pillar of Dreams, I, Pollyannus, appoint Alexis Larsson as an Aspect. Namely, Alexis Larsson will be appointed as the Aspect of Toxins.” A beam of light comes out of Pollyannus’s hand and hits Virulentus. She becomes enveloped in the light and after a few seconds is led back down to the ground by it. As it slowly fades away, Virulentus has changed slightly. Her hair is a bit more loose and free, her physique is slightly changed, with her veins showing slightly more. Behind her head is a flow of green liquid inside of a halo. It bubbles and boils as the halo glows brighter. She looks around and a reflection is shown in front of her. She stares at it for a while then looks up at Pollyannus. They smile and move their hand again, a throne is created on the right side of the temple wall, next to Bloodclaute. Virulentus walks over and sits on the throne. She looks at everyone and smiles and finally says, “That wasn’t so bad.” Pollyannus chuckles and then looks over to Volume 0. “Now for you, Cassandra.”
Volume 0 walks forward as well. She’s lifted into the air and hit with the same light that hit Virulentus. Pollyannus recites, “As the Pillar of Dreams, I, Pollyannus, appoint Cassandra Iridesca as an Aspect. Namely, Cassandra Iridesca will be appointed as the Aspect of Supersonic.” The light envelops her and lets her down from the air. As the light fades, changes were more noticeable on Volume 0. Instead of her pupils being swirled, only her left pupil held a strange sigil inside it, while the right has been reverted to a normal eyeball. A large strand of her hair has changed to a shade of light gray. The star and teardrop pattern on her cheeks still remained. Her halo behind her was colored purple at the edges, and inside the halo was a soundwave that steadily pulsed. Another throne is created next to Virulentus. Volume 0 sits on it and smiles at everyone. Pollyannus looks around and says, “You Aspects have done well in my name. You are the ones who will stop the evil that is the Leviathan. You even went out of your way of stopping a different threat to the multiverse without being asked to. I believe you will be more than ready for the Final Plan. And with that, the Appointment is complete. Alexis Larsson, Cassandra Iridesca, welcome to the Aspects, and keep doing what you have always done.” The rest of the Seraphim clap for the two and get up from their thrones. 
Pollyannus smiles and wishes them farewell. He lays back down and falls asleep. Seraph jokes, “He was waiting to head back to sleep.” The Precocious Squadron all circle around Volume 0 and Virulentus and geek out about their halos. Hellscream stares at Virulentus’s halo and says, “It’s just forever moving. It’s so cool. You think my detergent is in that mix?” He is rewarded with a jab to the stomach by Virulentus and a giggle. Imperialist smiles and says, “I think we should head back to Jericho. Our work’s not done. Maybe you can even show off your new looks to the CACG.” Volume 0 smiles softly and says, “Thank you guys, for being my family.” The Squadron all hug each other and walk towards the Bethlehem. The capital ship takes off from the temple, as it fades from view, and seemingly from space itself
