(Don't bother summoning the others. Just don't.)

*TNT rushes outside, JUST in time to see the big event.*

*Quite frankly, the party of people already assembled outside the crypt did not get the chance to even SEE any of their foes, as quite unceremoniously and anticlimactically, they were instantly eradicated by a sudden and brutal voidial breach-a break in reality that suddenly rendered a boundary between the Void and Existence out of play. The void from before barely contains itself between the boundry of existence and its infinite confines, the boundary that did not actually exist and was only pulled back by unknown forces. The others just exiting the Crypt are lucky they weren't hit by that. The eradicated units have been annihilated-there is no feasible method to resurrect them, as they are so utterly destroyed it's impossible to touch them from a past timeline or a future one. Just give up now.*

*An entity comes out of the newly created hole, which reforms into something far smoother than just a broken pane of glass. The entity that came out of it was roughly humanoid, and to those present, was definitely the figure they saw before-the mysterious assassin that one-shotted MOBSTER KINGPIN. The entity is not facing them.*

?!?!?!: ...Welp. That was quick. Honestly, the guys who are toying with the void should have known better than to think-

*The entity NOW recognizes you. The hole to the void is sealed quite quickly, and the entity turns to face you. It wears mottled grey, with green lines painted on. At the distance you are, you see a sigil on his chest, but cannot make out details. The entity wears a roughly skull-shaped mask, with the holes for the eyes exchanged for 'roughly circular patterns of cracks in the bone,' so to speak.*

?!?!?!: ...Oh, I presume you were the ones they were trying to ambush? Well. They failed spectacularly, as is obvious. If you find me familiar...Yes, you've seen me before: MK didn't see it coming either. I'm not here to exchange pleasantries, I have a lot of other stuff to do, so I'll make this quick: I would not consider you a direct ally, but our interests align quite perfectly, as of right now: The group these a**holes came from are bringing back some...Thing that I got some guys to seal up because he was a pain to deal with. You may know it as the Original Time Eater, though that thing is actually just called that strictly due to resemblance, not actually because it's the original Time Eater, that it's even a Time Eater at all, or for that matter, that it actually eats time. I'm pretty sure Time isn't actually edible. VERY non-indicative name on all levels. What it actually IS...That's for me to know and you to find out. But, massive tangent aside, simple task: You, murder it and I'm happy. OK, that and you can't screw with whatever I might be doing, but that'll be simple, really.

TNT:...Uhh, who the fu-who that-who the Freak are you? Great, the Stutter's coming back...

?!?!?!: Just call me The Black for now. It's based off of a rank I held with another group for the longest of whiles...Ah, memories.

The Black: Anyways. A simple deal: You don't screw with my plans and help me keep that Original Time Eater dude in check-or dead, doesn't matter which-and I don't go and wipe your a**es off the face of existence like those other fools AND I reward you with reality-ignoring items that don't cause catastrophic f***ery in space-time. Respectively, of course.

The Black: I obviously have no sway over your trust whatsoever other than the coincidental slaying of some a**hats for you. But honestly, our goals do align, so I would be pleased if you just accepted a temporary...Erm, kind of 'ceasefire,' despite the fact we actually hadn't fired much at each other yet, and we're cool totally here. Your choice. I'm not going to get offended if you don't buy into it. I wouldn't if I were you, honestly. I don't have much time...Maybe a minute or so? I'd make the decision making quick.

TNT: Group huddle.

*Gets everyone to huddle*

TNT:...Ok, Who the f-what that-What the freak is that guy?! I haven't seen such control over the void! Not even a Dark Writ could just pop in and out like that, it takes a few seconds and it might hurt from the contact somewhat-he just blew a hole in with a shot and came out unscathed! And Dark Writs are like, the kings and queens of void control and void resistance! And that's not getting into his deal at all...Ugh.

TNT: Any suggestions?
