The Keeper (ザキーパー, Za Kīpā) is an Agent of Destruction in Universe 1. Residing on Sovam, he is the eternal guardian of one half of the Heart of the Dragon.

Overview[]

Appearance[]

The Keeper is a very short, plump alien. He has navy blue skin and ears twice the size of Majin Sesami's hands. He has short black hair. The outfit he wears is silvery-black. His aura is crimson.

Personality[]

The Keeper is a confident warrior who takes his job extremely seriously. While he acts professional for the most part, he is prone to boasting and demeaning his opponents. He will answer any questions his challengers have, in relation to the Heart of the Dragon, before fighting them, and does not withhold any information about the artifact if pressed. During battle, he uses a slow, deliberate fighting style and does not block his opponents' attacks much, as, due to his strength, he does not need to. This may be a sign of arrogance or laziness.

History[]

Insatiable[]

In the second scene of this story, the Majin Marauders arrived on Sovam. They complained that there was nothing on the planet (save for a tower). Elhim was surprised that no one else could sense the huge power coming from the top of the tower. Impatiently, they flew up there, shattering a window with their auras and landing inside. There, they met a short creature (known as the Keeper). Elhim demanded he hand over the artifact. It was hovering, surrounded by a golden bubble of ki, in the center of the room. The Keeper explained that the device he was guarding was called the Heart of the Dragon. They could only take it if they killed him first.

He asked them how they knew the artifact was on that planet. Elhim, Hamash, and Shemash just laughed at the alien. Hocus asked the Keeper if every universe had an artifact. The Keeper said yes. Zalama, the creator of the artifacts, had placed at least one in every universe. Walu asked what the artifacts did, for she could not sense any power coming from the one in the room with them. The Keeper said that each artifact granted the possessor divine energy, as well as certain other boosts, but he was not allowed to say what those were. He also told them that if one acquired both parts of an artifact (such as the ones in Universes 1 and 12) and combined them, they would receive additional abilities.

Elhim boasted that he was in possession of the artifact from Universe 4. The Keeper was impressed and noted that once Elhim died (if the artifact was not passed to someone else), it was up to the the God of Destruction (Quitela) of the universe the artifact came from to retrieve it and return it to its temple. The Keeper noted that since Elhim seemed to be able to travel between universes, it would be quite the headache for Quitela to track him down.

Elhim was done talking to the alien. He challenged the Keeper to a fight. The Agent of Destruction gladly accepted, noting that the Majins were the strongest foes he had gone up against in a long time. He praised them once more for getting the Universe 4 artifact, but noted that he would be a more difficult challenge. He offered to fight all of them at once, and they accepted.

Elhim began by shooting a Transfiguration Beam at the Keeper in an attempt to turn him into bubblegum. The other Majins fired their own Transfiguration Beams, but the Keeper effortlessly dodged the attacks. Then, he attacked with three waves of cobalt energy. The final hit sent Hocus flying out of the window and broke the rest of their guards, allowing the alien to focus on Elhim. The two rose towards the ceiling as they traded punches and kicks. Elhim was barely able to keep up with the Keeper, which concerned Sesami greatly, for he was by far the strongest and fastest Majin.

The others flew up to help their leader, but the Keeper released an explosive wave that stunned them. The Keeper declared that the Majins would soon be dead. Enraged, Maanutar teleported behind the Keeper and pressed a ball of energy to his cheek. It exploded violently, but when the smoke cleared, the Keeper was standing in the same place, completely undamaged. He grabbed Maanutar by the neck, his hand coursing with energy, and squeezed. The Majin's head exploded. The Keeper told the others that the battle would be over shortly and thanked Elhim for returning the Universe 4 artifact to him. He promised to contact Lord Iwan so that he could tell the God of Destruction in Universe 4 where the device had ended up.

Just then, Maanutar rose to his feet, a new head forming. The Keeper was taken aback by that, allowing the seven warriors to attack him all at once. They were not able to do much damage, even though they landed several blows. The Keeper's stamina was slowly being sapped by having to fight them at once, and they began hitting him with more ki, which restored Sesami's hope that this was a battle they could win. Elhim, with his speed, was able to distract the alien, allowing the others to hit their foe.

The Keeper seemed to realize their strategy, for he suddenly shifted his focus from Elhim to Salubi. He fired a ball of Energy of Destruction at the Majin. Salubi dissolved before their eyes. The Majins were stunned. Furious, Elhim threw a ki blast at the Keeper and attacked him. When the Keeper prepared another ball of purple energy, the Majin dodged it just in time, though the attack hit the ceiling and vaporized it. With the burning sun on them now, the Majins began expending their stamina at a much faster rate. Shemash tried to punch the Keeper, but he caught his fist. Purple energy glowed on his fingertips, and a moment later, the Majin had been vaporized. The Keeper kicked Walu and Hamash out of his way and went for Maanutar. The Majin screamed and tried to fly away, but he didn't reach where the ceiling had been before the energy hit him and he vanished forever.

The four remaining Majins regrouped. Since Sesami was the youngest and weakest, Elhim commanded her to attack the Keeper first, to provide a distraction for the others. She charged the Keeper with an energy beam growing in each hand. He jumped towards her, grabbing her by the head tentacle. The man threw her into a wall, ripping off her head tentacle at the same time. Her energy beams released prematurely. The Keeper had no trouble dodging them. She sat up against a wall, her energy spent. Hamash, Walu, and Elhim were charging the Keeper from behind, but she knew they wouldn't reach him in time. The alien fired a blast of Energy of Destruction into her chest, and Sesami dissolved away.

The Keeper focused on the other three Majins. Purple energy glowed on his fists, so they couldn't get near him. It took all of Elhim's strength to dodge the first punch. Hamash barely got out of the way too. Walu shot ki blasts at the alien, doing all she could to help. Hamash feinted to the right, then came in from the left with both feet. The Keeper did not block the hit to his face. Instead, unflinching, he punched Hamash in the stomach, and the poor fellow dissolved to nothing.

Elhim and Walu kept their distance, hitting the Keeper with ki. The three were exhausted, no longer able to fight at great speed. However, the Keeper didn't try to dodge or block the attacks. They did not seem to be doing much to him. He charged them down. Elhim was able to teleport-dodge the first punch, but that left Walu one-on-one with the Keeper. Her ki blasts were doing no damage.

At that moment, Sesami's head tentacle flew through the air, expanding into a web of goo, and landed on the Keeper. He dropped his energy in surprise and tried to tear the goo off of him, but it was no use. A few seconds later, Sesami re-formed. Her body had become shorter, slightly more rotund, her head tentacle elongating somewhat more, and her face had rounded out. She wore the Keeper’s armored silvery-black shirt, though her pants remained the same. Walu was most impressed with Sesami.

Elhim had walked over to the Heart of the Dragon. Seeing that, Sesami became enraged and raced over to him, noting that she was now much faster than before. She claimed the artifact for herself. Elhim would not listen, so they settled it with a fight. The weary old Majin was no match for Sesami with the Keeper absorbed. It only took her thirty seconds to win. Then, she swallowed the artifact. Soon, she began to perceive her new strength. The power felt good. She understood just how strong Elhim was, too, and knew that she was now the strongest Majin. Afterwards, the trio collected Hocus and returned to Universe 7, exhausted and ready to sleep.

In the third scene, the Majin Marauders returned to their homeworld. They sensed no other Majins there. Elhim explained that all of the other Majins had warred themselves to death. He noted that Majin breeding was strictly controlled because the multiverse could not sustain very many of their kind. Those Majins who had not been part of Elhim's group had warred themselves to death while the team had explored Universes 1 and 4. He blamed it on the fact that the Majin elders had been dead for several cycles, and so there had been no one overseeing their species.

Elhim swore that after they visited Universe 2 during their next cycle, he would lead the re-population efforts himself, and it would be done under his terms. Sesami didn't believe it, but Elhim told her it was true - there were no other Majins left, in the entire multiverse, save for the four of them. When he had woken in the current cycle, Elhim had discovered the infighting and had executed the few survivors, as they could not be trusted. By the time Sesami had awoken in her fourth cycle, only Elhim's team had remained. She was shocked to learn that.

Elhim offered to mate with both Walu and Sesami, but the girls refused. He was confident they would change their minds after another cycle of sleep. Walu said she would self-destruct before mating with Elhim. Their leader didn't care. He would make a mate from his own flesh if he had to. Walu said that would be for the best. Sesami concurred. She noted that a Majin pair could sire a thousand offspring in a day if they wished, so their species was not at risk of extinction. Elhim rebuked her for such thinking, as unchecked breeding in the past was the reason for their species decline.

Sesami asked him why they needed to continue collecting Zalama's artifacts instead of focusing on the restoration of their species. He knew she was trolling him. He remarked that the power they conferred felt good and had more value than candy. She agreed. He told them that they would collect every artifact and rule the multiverse. He ordered them to get some sleep. Sesami asked Elhim if he would be joining them, but he said that the older he got, the less sleep he needed, and so he would not need to hibernate as long as them. In any case, there were things he needed to do before he joined them.

Sesami picked up the sleeping Hocus and walked off. Walu, as well, retreated to her favorite hibernating spot, which was fairly close to Sesami's. Sesami put Hocus a bit farther away, leaving him above ground to sleep. When she returned to her hibernating spot, Sesami looked at her reflection in an underground stream and grew dissatisfied. She spit the Keeper out, and kneeling, wrapped her head tentacle around him, choking the life out of him.
