A beermat flies out of the portal and lands on the ruined ground beneath. Almost immediately, an octopus squelches out of a puddle to retrieve it. It reads a note written on the beermat, then disappears into the sea.

Shortly afterwards, a massive dreadnought rumbles out of the sky and powers itself into the portal...

...The mean looking ACME cruiser finally reaches its destination - the sun.
Immediately deploying the Inverted Quantum Beam weapon, the ACME Master Computer 74d7b92 beams a warning message to all vessels in the system:

Warning! This craft has been instructed to cause the local star to implode into a Black Hole. All sentient beings are directed to vacate this system immediately. I repeat this system is going to be destroyed. Have a nice day!

With no further warning the Inverted Quantum Beam is activated and the irreversible process of turning the sun into a Black Hole is begun.

As soon as Spork gets the warning he sends off one Last message to Power Man. A small ship leaves the Dread2 and dives into the portal.

The Dread 2 opens a new jump point and disappears from the system.

SO Long Old Cantina !!
