Story:
Many say that the universe is infinite. Often, they mean this in the sense of space and size. The bounds of the outer blackness that surround our planet stretch out further than our feeble minds could ever comprehend. On the other hand, there is the ever flowing construct of time. One day, when the light is gone, and there is no more of a place we may refer to as “reality”, the ever-present ticking of time shall continue. As time flows, some say events throughout are fated to occur. Only once a certain point is reached do these planned events get put into motion. As time itself is infinite, events are destined to repeat forever in a continuum. Many timelines, with many outcomes, all branching from a single predetermined event. The Doom Marine is our event.
Time and time again, the Doom Marine is required. Without him, the universe would have become infested with demons centuries ago. He is the protector of our universe whether he likes it or not. He is called upon continuously because the threat he faces never truly ends. What if, in this ever looping continuum that branches out a trillion times over, there was one instance where the Doom Marine did defeat the demons of hell once in for all? What if he was able to completely extinguish this foe before ever even becoming what would later be known as The Slayer? Could he finally rest? Would he finally rest? And what kind of power would be needed for such a task?
In our case, this is that timeline. Instead of traveling throughout the mars base, and slaughtering the threats on Phobos and Deimos as he has done countless times, our hero will be plucked from their timeline by some higher power. This power wishes for the Doom Marine to come to peace after all this time. It has become tired of the eternal loop. Now, dropped directly into the bowels of hell, the Doom Marine must destroy the forces of hell once and for all. But will he be satisfied with this conclusion? Can a being born out of hate and rage be so easily satisfied? Or will he take control of his own time?
