Secure? Contain? Not for long! (0.6.2)
Noah fell through the portal once more with Wraith now out of his body. Once more he was incapacitated. A moment later Atlas came through the door of the shed with a forklift to pick him up and carry him inside. "I'll stamp your card once you've regained mobility."
Once inside, Atlas took the latticework heart and placed it upon a pedestal. Then, he moved to one of the portals, sliding it sideways. From Fate and Noah's point of view, it looked as though he was rewinding a tape.
He played back the portal "video" until he reached a point in time back in the coffee shop. There, he briefly reached through and swiped a hand across the counter while no one was looking.
When he brought his hand back through, the dust on his finger was glowing. He hit a button to open up the see through floor of the abyss. Currently, the group could see massive serpentine beings swimming in the howling dark around them. However, below that was the light from the two suns orbiting a black hole.
He rubbed his finger on the pedestal with the latticework heart. "Grey has been linked to the observatory's power network briefly. It will allow her nanites to function. Please do not stare too long at the leviathan's offspring. They will drive you mad and I cannot use the shielding and restore Lady Grey."
A moment later the glowing dust was jettisoned into the Abyss and their glittering could be seen drawing toward the gravity well of the stars. One of the massive black serpents attempted to consume the dust, only to instantly be converted into more. No other serpents drew near.
Moments later, the glimmering dust was subsumed by the stars and the black hole. "Now we wait."
