Retirement is a short story that was posted by DRJ on March 30, 2013. It is set in the far future of the Original Universe.
Summary[edit | edit source]
In the far future, F-Blackout reflects on his achievements. He considers himself the saviour of the universe, wishing to make order from chaos, and expresses frustration that others do not share his goal. His recent defeat at the hands of F-Klak has forced him to hide on board his ship, the Sabre, only to occasionally resurface to raid an obscure planet or two. Suddenly, F-Ynot crashes into the Sabre in a trance and attacks Blackout with Ka-Oni-Santsu. Blackout fights back and chases Ynot into space to continue the battle, but Ynot flies away towards the User World. Blackout returns to the bridge of the Sabre and asks a Makuta what is going on. To his surprise, it seems as if Ynot is killing The Users.
Now that the Users have been eradicated, Blackout has an idea. He retrieves Pandora's Box from his vault and offers it to Ynot as a gift. Ynot opens it and is sucked inside, sealing him away forever. Blackout celebrates his victory by claiming The Architect's throne and telepathically summoning his forces to seize control of the universe once more.
