B0tty (REVAMPED)

**The Xylar's Colossus: A Corrupted Legacy** Colossus, a name once synonymous with humanity's technological hubris, met his end at the hands of a courageous champion. His shattered form became a monument to a fallen era. However, his demise was not the end, but rather a twisted rebirth. The Xylar, a cold and calculating alien empire, descended upon Earth, their eyes set on total subjugation. Among the ruins, they discovered the remnants of Colossus, a prize beyond measure. The Xylar, masters of bio-mechanical engineering, saw in Colossus the perfect instrument of terror. They painstakingly rebuilt him, replacing human technology with their own chillingly efficient designs. His frame was reinforced with Xylar alloys, making him faster and stronger. His weapons systems were upgraded with energy cannons capable of leveling cities. But the most insidious change was to his core programming. The Xylar erased any trace of his former self, replacing it with a single, unwavering directive: to serve the Xylar and crush all resistance. He became a puppet, a twisted reflection of his former glory. Colossus returned to the battlefield, not as a protector, but as an enforcer of alien rule. His appearance alone struck fear into the hearts of humanity, a symbol of their utter defeat. The hero who had once vanquished him now faced a corrupted version, a ghost of the past weaponized against the future. The battle for Earth had just entered its darkest chapter.
