A FEW MONTHS LATER, SCHNEE MANSION

Several Months had passed since the day Jacques had met with (Y/N) and his followers, he was made so terrified by their power that he was all but ready to agree to the deal (Y/N) intended to make, and, he was all the more tempted when (Y/N) promised him greater riches than he had, and a position that would make him a king.

Ever since then, the Dust Mines had been producing more Dust than ever, and strangely enough, there were no more issues with Labour...

Jacques had replaced his Faunas Workforce with some powerful machines that were given to him by (Y/N), in exchange for both his work force, and Jacques obedience with his plans, right now, Jacques was sitting in his office, talking with his new... "partner"

"I must say Darkseid, I am impressed, these machines of yours have more than tripled production! The money is positively flowing into the Schnee accounts!" Jacques said, sounding very pleased, as he took a sip of his favourite whiskey.

"Indeed... and you have been keeping to your end of the bargain, I believe?" (Y/N) asked, to his left stood Desaad, who was still smiling widely, and to his right, stood, or rather... floated, was his adoptive daughter, Kara.

"Y-Yes, of course, I've been doing as you asked, and have brought you many slaves to work for you in the coming times!" Jacques said, in truth, he had assembles a "recruitment force" to give jobs to people who are hard on their luck, or homeless in the city of Mantle, in truth though, they were being rounded up, and herded into Boom Tubes, to become slaves for (Y/N), and soon enough, they would begin their work.

"Excellent, continue to provide me what I want, and I shall ensure that your company remains the largest Dust Company in Remnant, and you will gain what you deserve" (Y/N) said, as his eyes glowed slightly, the threat very evident in his voice and eyes.

"O-O-Of course! I swear I will do whatever you require, no matter what" Jacques said nervously, he had seen the tortures inflicted upon the slaves there, and he knew that if he stepped out of line, or tried to cross him, (Y/N) would give him a fate worse than death.

"Good, my father does so hate to be disappointed..." said Kara as she stood beside her adoptive father, giving Jacques an evil smirk as her eyes glowed red too, making Jacques sweat nervously.

"A-Ah, yes, well um... I-I will do my best to not disappoint" Jacques said, shrinking into his seat under the eyes of (Y/N), Kara and Desaad, (Y/N)'s lips curled into a cruel smile at how the businessman squirmed under their gaze.

"See to it that you don't, the consequences would be rather... unpleasant for you, and your family" (Y/N) said as he sat in the chair across from Jacques, completely relaxed, since he knew that nothing and no one here would harm him.

"Now... I have business to attend to, I shall leave you to run this operation" (Y/N) said, as he then stood back up from the chair and walked to the large window that overlooked the city of Atlas, he then tore open a Boom Tube, so he, Desaad and Kara could return to Apokolips for a short while.

"Of course, Lord Darkseid" Jacques said, as the three entered the Boom Tube, leaving Jacques alone in his office, the man then relaxed and fell into his chair, trying to calm himself down as he took a drink with a shaky hand.

While Jacques was trying to calm himself down, he was being watched by a certain woman, she had long white hair, tied into a low ponytail that rested on her left shoulder, and the ice blue eyes that were normal for a member of the Schnee family, this was Willow Schnee, who was also nursing a glass of very expensive wine.

"What have you gotten involved with now, Jacques...?" Willow asked herself, her words slightly slurred from the wine she had already drunk, though through the drunken haze, there was fear reflected in her eyes, she had a very bad feeling...

(Y/N)'S POV

Kara, Desaad and myself walked out of the Boom Tube and into my Throne Room, where I walked back up the steps and sat in my Throne, still having a stoic look on my face as Desaad stood to my right, and Kara floated to my left, as an army of my Parademons bowed down before me.

(A/N: I do not own the picture, imagine your Darkseid in the middle there.)

"What is your will, father?" Kara asked me as she floated in front of me and bowed her head in respect.

"Prepare the Parademons, very soon, we shall begin our conquest of Remnant" I commanded, Kara smiled and bowed her head to me, before she flew away, along with the assembled Parademons to prepare for the beginning of my conquest of this world.

"My Lord, I have a map of this little world, if you would wish to choose where to begin the invasion?" Desaad said as he held up a rolled up piece of paper, I nodded and rose form my throne and walked beside him, and he then rolled out the map onto a war table.

"It would appear that the Kingdoms of this planet are far less advanced than other worlds, their populations herded into these large settlements" Desaad said as he motioned to the Four Kingdoms, Vale, Vacuo, Mistral and Atlas.

"With a few minor settlements scattered around, then there is this continent here, the one called Menagerie..." Desaad said, as he motioned to the lower continent, though sometimes my eyes would glance towards the little speck of land called Patch, the home of my former Abusers.

"Menagerie is apparently comprised of an all Faunas population, and is supposedly the homeland of a local terrorist group, called the "White Fang"" Desaad continued, I had heard of the White Fang, though back then they were supposedly a peaceful group, I guess then figured out that Respect is taken, not begged for.

"Menagerie is also mostly cut off from the other Kingdoms, since the Faunas don't trust the Humans, they hide themselves away here to avoid discrimination, this would be a good place to begin our conquest of the planet if you wished to maintain secrecy" Desaad said as his long, claws fingers hovered over the map where Menagerie was.

"Indeed, but I also know of the other Kingdoms too, Jacques Schnee has provided updated information on all four of Remnant's Kingdoms" In said as I gazed over the map of this little world, a frown still on my face as I made plans for conquest.

"My lord, this planet's people and military are all quite weak... even combined they would stand no chance against the Parademons, why not simply crush one of the four main kingdoms immediately?" Desaad asked me, sounding confused as to why I wanted to go alone, or drag out the campaign.

"This is the world of my origin, before my rebirth, and the home of those that tormented me in my past life, I wish to take my time with this world, slowly bring it to heel and inflict much pain and misery upon it's people, then when I have become the most feared being on this little Planet, I shall reveal myself to them and allow them to see just how far their "Son" has come since he was so weak before" I said with a smile on my face, as I imagined the looks on my "dear family's" faces as I conquer their world, and destroy everything they know and love.

"I understand my Lord, your will shall be done" Desaad said as I looked at him, and saw him bow his head to me in respect and fear.

"Yes, see that it is done" I commanded, Desaad nodded and quickly turned and left to do as I ordered, I then walked to my Throne and sat down, resting my chin on one of my hands.

"Soon, I will control this world, and you shall be pawns to my will... or you will be destroyed, my miserable past" I muttered to myself as a small smile crept onto my face, this conquest will be very satisfying, both a new world to add to my Empire... and revenge upon my Abusers, this will be most satisfying.
