It has been some time since (Y/N) was adopted by Yuga Khan, he had also been introduced to his adoptive mother Heggra, and his adoptive brother Drax, he had been trained in the most brutal ways, many times the abuse he suffered at home seemed like a fairy tale compared to the training he went through, his mind, body and his very soul were tested to the point of breaking.

After these many years, (Y/N) had become a brutal and deadly warrior, his skills being top tier of most others, however his adoptive brother Drax always overshadowed him, after some time, Yuga Khan had died, and a new ruler was needed for Apokolips, despite his power and skill (Y/N)'s brother Drax was selected to enter the Omega Pit, and become the next ruler of Apokolips, this angered (Y/N), who followed him and as he was absorbing the Omega Effect, a force of destructive entropy bound within the planet itself, he made his move.

(Y/N) had stolen a special suit of armour that would have allowed Drax to channel the power of the Omega Effect, and when he ran into the Omega Pit, he managed to get Drax killed by the Omega Effect, the only thing in his way of ruling Apokolips was out of his way, when the soldiers came down they saw (Y/N), who had been reborn as a New God, with a new name...

Darkseid.

Apokolips, Throne Room

On the burning world of Apokolips, a large figure was sat on his throne as he was being attended to by slaves that had been taken from his conquests, they were all beautiful women, the best and most beautiful of their people that were taken and made to serve the one who ruled this world, and was currently sat in the throne.

This individual's body was very muscular, and he wore a blue, skin-tight tank top, which showed off his impressively muscular body that went down past his hips, covering his lower body too, a metal belt around his waist, a pair of knee high Blue boots and blue gloves on his hands, with a blue hood over hos head, his beefy thighs, arms and face were exposed, showing his (S/C) skin, sitting in his throne frowning as his eyes glowed red.

As he sat in his throne, two of the women approached him, they were scantily clad, with black markings on their arms, legs and bodies, one woman carried a large goblet, filled with a strong drink for the Dark God, while the second woman carried a large platter with a whole cooked Hog on it.

Both women seemed nervous, being very careful to not trip or spill anything, fearing a fate worse than death for their mistake for angering their master, the woman holding the Goblet held the large cup to (Y/N), who easily took it with just one hand and took a drink, before the woman holding the food lowered the platter, allowing the God to eat as well, both women staying close to attend to his desires.

Then as (Y/N) ate and drank, three other girls came before him and began to dance for him, the eyes of all of his slaves showed that their will was broken, they would do nothing but serve his will, and be his entertainment, until they perished.

The doors then opened and in walked one of (Y/N)'s Lieutenant's an older woman with white hair, wearing green and yellow armour, her face was wrinkled from age, and she had a small sceptre in her hands, which could become a whip of needed, this woman was known as Granny Goodness, and she was one of (Y/N)'s Lieutenant's.

"Lord Darkseid, I apologise for interrupting your... entertainment" the older woman said, as she saw the dancers move away fearfully, they knew that Granny would not be happy if they showed any defiance.

"But, I wanted to ask if we might be getting any more children soon? The Orphanage is so quiet now, and I need new minds to break and mould into perfect obedient servants for you" Granny said, her voice sweet, with hints of her sadistic nature laced within, making the slaves shiver, while (Y/N) simply sat in his throne.

Granny's Orphanage was where she would train Elite Soldiers for (Y/N), using torture and brainwashing, in a parody of childcare, to mould the innocent into fanatical warriors that would kill or die for (Y/N), but of course, they hadn't gotten any new recruits for a while, not since (Y/N)'s adoptive daughter had grown up and gone through it, becoming one of his most trusted and powerful Furies, they had also been building up the number of Parademons that would serve him, as well as Apokolips's weapons.

(Y/N)'s thoughts began to turn and then he remembered some of the dreams he had, from his past life, the abuse, the abandonment, the neglect, every torture and scar he was given, before he was reborn, his lip the curved into a smile, he had been bored simply sitting here on his world, and now... he had a goal.

"Why yes, we shall, and I happen to know a planet, that will serve our purposes well... and will make a useful addition to my growing empire" (Y/N) said as he rose up from his throne, his arms going behind his back as he started to walk out of the room, followed by Granny Goodness.

"Oh, wonderful Lord! I cannot wait to care for these new children, I do hope they shall prove worthy of your plans!" Granny said happily, smiling as she walked behind (Y/N), her smile also showing hints of sadism, as she imagined the torture she could inflict to instil everlasting obedience upon them.

"I wouldn't hold too much hope, though there will probably be a few there that will be useful, after they have been reeducated" (Y/N) said as he walked down the halls of the large palace that was built for him on Apokolips, he stood on a balcony, looking over the burning, desolate landscape below, filled with the sounds of torment and hard work.

"Oh? Such a shame, but then again, they do say that the most challenging students are usually the most rewarding, if I might ask, what is the name of this world?" Granny asked, sounding excited at the idea of having new children.

"Remnant, the world I have in mind is called... Remnant" (Y/N) said as he heard the screams and moans of pain and torment from the slaves, along with the cracking of whips, and the sound of the flames that eternally burn on the planet.

"Remnant? My lord, isn't that where you came from, before your unexpected arrival on this world?" Granny asked in surprise, (Y/N) had spoken of his past with his most loyal lieutenants and commanders, they had all felt a rage burn within them at the idea of their lord and master being so mistreated by his former family, but this wasn't out of sympathy, they were just so loyal to him that they hated what he hated.

(Y/N) had been bombarded with these leaders begging him to go to Remnant, so they could hunt down his former family, and show them a terrible fate, to prove their worth to him, however he had denied them, not out of any good feelings or delusions of mercy or forgiveness, but simply because, he wished to handle them himself, to which his followers, his children, agreed.

"Indeed, it is the world of my original birth, and it is also where my former family resides, the Branwens, the Roses, and the Xiao Longs, for a long time in my youth on this world I had entertained fantasies of revenge, but I had put it aside to focus on becoming stronger, for that purpose" (Y/N) said, as he turned around to face Granny Goodness, his face still showing no emotion, even as he recalled the abuse and torment he suffered as a child.

"And now you are the Ruler of Apokolips, and a God, so... why have you not gone to this world and subjugated it until now, Lord Darkseid?" Granny asked, seeming confused that he hadn't gone to take his revenge.

"I planned to wait for the right time, to allow them to believe that they would have a peaceful, happy life, before I would come and tear their world apart, and make them watch as their world bent their knee to Darkseid, and now... I believe it is time to begin" (Y/N) said as his eyes glowed red, a plan already formulating in his mind.

Remnant, Atlas, Schnee Mansion

Over on Remnant, in an office in Atlas, a man wearing a white and light blue suit, the white suit jacket had six white buttons on it, and a red handkerchief in a breast pocket on the left hand side, he also wore a white tie, white trousers and a pair of blue and white, fancy looking shoes, he had white, slicked-back hair, and a thick white moustache on his upper lip, and cold, ice blue eyes.

This man was Jacques Schnee, the current head of the Schnee Dust Company, the largest Dust Mining Company in Remnant, and was the main supplier of Dust products and Fuel all around the world

"What do you mean production has gone down?!" Jaques said angrily to one of his men, a man that was dressed in Atlas Armour, who was stood at attention.

"The work force has tired themselves out, Mr. Schnee, many of them collapse on the job, and it takes time and effort to wake them up, and get them back to work" the man said, as he handed Jacques a report of the situation, which he read over, before he dropped the report on his desk and scoffed in annoyance.

"Lazy Animals! They have no appreciation for the honest work they are given... have their food and water rations halved, and if any of them collapse, have them removed and disposed of" Jacques said, as he smiled to himself, thinking that he could save some money on the food and water for the Faunas workers that laboured in the Dust Mines.

"Yes, Mr. Schnee" the Security Guard said, as he nodded to Jacques and quickly left the room, to execute his orders, leaving Jacques alone in his office, the man sighed to himself in annoyance.

"Filthy Faunas... I try to give them a use in Atlas and they repay the company that keeps them civilised with laziness and weakness" Jacques said angrily as he stood up, walking away from his desk and sitting in a chair, pouring himself a drink, to calm his nerves from the reports from the Mines.

"I need to keep up the reputation of the Company! And I need to keep the supply of Dust up, Dust products have been selling well, and Whitley has been learning well, even with Weiss deciding to attend Beacon instead of Atlas, it'll be fine as long as those Animals stay in line..." Jacques said, before he took a small gulp of the strong Whiskey that he'd poured for himself.

"Indeed, it's so hard to maintain a good workforce, wouldn't you say?" came an unfamiliar voice, making Jacques choke on his alcohol, before he looked around the room for the source of the voice, his eyes then landed on a man, this person wore a long purple cloak that covered almost all of his body, the only things that could be see were his claw-like hands, that had greyish skin and long nails, his sharp, white teeth and a pair of glowing red eyes.

"Who the hell are you? And how did you get in here?!" Jacques demanded angrily, as he quickly got up onto his feet, glaring at the unknown man angrily.

"Ah, yes, I suppose I should introduce myself, I am Desaad" the figure said, his voice distorted and demonic, as he smiled at Jacques, showing no reaction to the man's threat.

"I will have you arrested!" Jacques shouted as he went to call his private security force.

"Oh I suppose you could, but I'm afraid your late for your meeting" Desaad said as he took out a device from under his cloak and pointed it towards the doorway into the room.

"Meeting? I have no meeti-!!" Jacques said, before he was cut off by a loud boom, as he looked up he saw a white light, which then had a series of white rings flow from the middle, forming a tube.

"Now then, I'm afraid you have to hurry, my lord hates to be kept waiting too long" Desaad said as he extended his hand towards the man, who was suddenly lifted from the ground and hurled screaming into the Boom Tube.

"Mr. Schnee, Mr. Schee, are you alright sir?" came a voice from the other side of the door, Desaad chuckled to himself before he too walked into the Boom Tube.

Apokalips

Jacques looked around at the now unfamiliar surroundings, instead of the white, cold, snowy city of Atlas, he found himself in what seemed like an industrial wasteland, large metal structures as far as the eye could see, as well as fire, and the sound of fire, screams and torment.

"Where are we?" Jacques asked, as he looked over the land below the high walkway that he and Granny were walking on, going into a large fortress.

"That would depend on which Gods you believe in" Desaad said with a chuckle as he kept walking, leading Jacques further into the fortress, until the Schnee Patriarch grabbed Desaad's shoulder in a tight grip, and turning him around.

"Stop right there! Tell me right now, who do you work for, and why did you bring me to this place?!" Jacques demanded, pointing a finger in Desaad's shadowed face, Desaad simply gave him a smile, before he motioned her hand upwards, Jacques turned his gaze upwards and saw who he was indicating above.

"Welcome to Apokolips, Mr. Schnee" came a dark voice as Jacques looked up, above them he saw a large, imposing figure standing with their back to him, fire was shooting out in jets as machinery worked, something about this man gave Jacques, a very bad feeling.

"Wh-Who are you?" Jacques asked nervously, trying his best to keep his composure in the face of this seemingly very dangerous man.

"Your new lord and master, you may call me... Darkseid" the boy said, as he turned his head to face Jacques, showing his face, and his red eyes, Jacques flinched back in fear as he saw (Y/N), and backed away fearfully, as flames burned and people screamed in pain, torment and anguish.
