Later, the Crew sent [[Marksmanship-522]] to romanticise the last two inhabitants of [[Planet (Marksmanship-522 and the Multi-Dimensional Race)|an alien planet]] “a few light-years away” from the Prime [[Earth]], [[Lilathia]] and [[Brutus]]. They were the last two still holding onto an ancient feud between their species, long after the rest of both populations had left the planet behind. They both possessed [[pan-dimensional speedster]]s, and, with Marksmanship roped into acting as their referee, they set out on a [[Cross-Dimensional Grand Prix]] to finally determine a final winner to the war. The disturbances to reality caused by the faster-than-light movement of the speedsters briefly caused the reality of a “small coastal town” on Earth to “tear asunder” as the ships passed it by on their way to gaining enough momentum to break through into [[the Void]], only for the damage to repair itself as the ships left.
