Look at 'em. Millions of 'em. Don't you just wanna stop and dish some out?
Flying at break-neck speed away from the Orienta Shard, he sees them all spread out before him, and it's like he's just joined the New Warriors again, big mouth, but this time he has the muscle to back it up. This time, he really does have that kinda power.

All this time, he's wanted to be somebody, and now he is.
'At this time,' 'at this time'--what better time is there?

Burden? It feels like I've got a star singing inside me. I could do anything.
All this time, he's wanted to be something. Now, he's everything.

All he feels now is rage, and the power fuels it, the rage makes him lose control, fuels the power. It's an unbroken circle, and he follows through and does what feels natural.
He blasts through the nearest bug ship, destroying it and killing every sentient inside.
"Could you, you bugs? Could you?" he screams into the void, and blasts through another ship, leaving a plume of fire in his wake. "Not like the last time! Not like when you took us apart!"
There's another ship, and another. There's destruction. Death by the thousands.
It's his right to bring death to them after they've killed so many. It's justice.
"HOW DOES IT FEEL NOW, YOU FUCKERS? HOW DOES IT FEEL?"

He flies, gathering up speed, energy swirling in a vortex around him, he builds up speed and momentum.
He's going to kill them all. Every last one of them.

So many dead. So many dead and he couldn't stop it. So many dead and he was useless, like he's always been useless, and they all died in pain, they all died horribly, they--
"THEY'VE GOT TO PAY!"
There'd be a crunch, if there was sound in the void, as he rockets through the hull of the largest of the ships, right into the core of it, and then the energy explodes outward. The ship tears apart and shreds around him, a good chunk of it vaporizing in the blast.
For just a moment, there's another star in the Verge System, and its birth heralds the death of many of the last living things left in it.
