Darkness—nothing but darkness. I have no idea how I got here or how long I've been here. I feel nothing, not hunger, thirst, or even the desire to sleep.

"This sucks"
I walk, trying to find light or any sign of life
.
.
.
"Hello, is anyone there?"
Still nothing. No matter how many times I try, no one responds, just me, my thoughts, and the endless echoes of my voice
"Could be worse. I'm not suffering, and even though I've been here for a long time, I don't seem tired or starving; I don't even need to breathe. So am I dead or what."
.
.
I sigh, pushing back my blonde hair as I walk deeper into the darkness, into the endless void I find myself in.
.
.
"Maybe I'm dead, and this is some waiting room before God judges me or something. "
"Hmm, I wonder?"
"Hey, Gabriel, Michael, or whoever else there is, where are you!"
.
.
.
.
"Nothing, huh guess they can't hear me, or I'm not dead."
"Maybe I'm in hell or purgatory because this definitely isn't heaven."
.
.
.
"What if I tried this?"
"System"
.
.
.
.
"No, really? I need to try something else-...
"HELLO"
'Oh shoot"
I hear a voice like thunder that shakes this place and makes me fall backward from the sudden something when there was nothing for so long.
What was that? It sounded like a voice, but did I also hear it in my mind?
"Stop asking foolish questions. We have matters to discuss."
I don't see it, and I can't see it, but I can feel its presence. Whatever it is, it's beyond me and impossible to comprehend.
"What do you want, and where am I?"
"You are in a place that both does and doesn't exist,t a place only beings like I can perceive and interact with.h."
"Did you bring me here?"
"N, your universe ended deleted and erased like it never existed. How you managed to survive and end up here is unknown to me,"
.
.
.
"No, this can't have happened this is just a dream."
But deep down, I know that isn't true. You remember walking through your neighborhood, seeing a strange light and then nothing but darkness.
.
.
.
"It seems you remember now, good. This makes what happens next easier. You are a unique existence; you have become a being outside of time and space. Normally, such things are achieved through Ascension, but you just got lucky. I could leave you here, but instead, I'll give you a chance to live in another world."
I take a moment to process what happened to me and what I am. I could stay here and go insane or go to a new world. That's not a hard choice.
"I would like to leave this place, please."
"How polite. I'm doing very well since you've been so polite. I'll give you a gif.t."
"A gift?"
"Yes, I'll give you the power of your favorite Marvel hero, the Sentry."
"Wait, seriously!! Thank you; that's very generous of you."
"Don't thank me yet. The condition is you will be going to the world of the boys."
Well,p that sucks. Maybe it's the boys, but that's all. L no Godzilla, Darkside, Thanos, or Galactus. Just Homelander evil corporations and corrupt governments. Take away the supes, and it would just be my old world again. But Best to make sure.
"Excuse me, but am I getting the full powers and abilities of the Sentry, sir?"
"Yes, when I send you back, you will be far away from any humans or animals in the Antarctic. You will then consume the golden sentry serum and have the full power of the Sentry and the void. But be warned, your condition is unique you do not suffer from mental illness, but you are technically a part of this place,e and it will merge with your powers in ways that are unknown to me. "
"I see. Well, if there's nothing else, may I go now?"
"Yes, now remember that just because this world is based on the show, there are subtle differences. The supes will be stronger and capable of greater feats that the show couldn't show you due to limits in budget and ability. If it was animated, it would have been more accurate."
"In what way?"
"You'll see now that I'll send you back a week before the start of episode one of season one. Good luck, Tyler."
"Thanks for the opportunity. I won't waste it."
All of a sudden, a portal strangely similar to Doctor Strange's opens, with a frozen wasteland on the other side. As I walk to the portal, I feel something in my pants pocket. When I reached in, I saw a seven-inch bottle with a cap on it labeled "The Golden Sentry Serum." I lightly chuckle.
"Now is the time for vigilance."
