Description In this sketch, a shuttle exits its hyperspace jump and stumbles across a rod shaped spacecraft from an unknown intelligence.

Immediately after, the shuttle was vaporized by the ship's directed energy weapons as it simultaneously fired three positron beams at the near by planet's moons and eventually the planet. Not long after word got out of the ship and its fire power, countless civilizations were destroyed. Every civilization that it came across fought it with all of their might but to absolutely no avail. It held trillions of Von Neumann warships and quadrillions of grey goo swarm drones, each being the size of an aircraft carrier. Because of this, every enemy ship it encountered and consumed was turned into another drone.

The infrequent type 2 civilizations that it came across didn't stand a chance either. Its surface seemed to be indestructible, withstanding anti-matter in any quantity, lasers powerful enough to destroy whole cities, plasma hot enough to equal that of the sun's core, and kinetic strikes worse than the impact of the Chickulub asteroid. As a result, the remaining civilizations fled to the most distant and remote areas of the Milky Way, some even leaving the galaxy entirely. They called the ship "The Doomsday Carrier". During that period, just as all hope seemed to be gone, an interdimensional being who calls himself "The Man of the Hour" visited the political leaders of the remote refugee colonies that consisted of multiple civilizations. He informed them of its origin and what it exactly was.

It was a light-year-long scouting probe that used a white hole for power. It was from a type 3 civilization located in the galaxy NGC 6822. The intelligence that created it had no hostile intentions. The probe's hyper-intelligent AI, as it traveled on an intergalactic highway system, suffered a massive glitch that affected all of its systems and even its autocorrect systems. As a result, the ship became a craft with hostile Borg-like protocols. Despite that the Man of the Hour was only known for annoying and observing, he unexpectedly made the decision to help out. He teleported the craft in front of the supermassive black hole SDSS J010013.02+280225.8 (a black hole consisting of 10 billion solar masses). The probe was eventually torn apart from spaghettification as it surpassed the event horizon and approached the singularity. 

After that, the Man of the Hour was never seen again by any civilization in the whole universe and the fallen civilizations were all restored by his powers to the point where it seemed the probe had never attacked in the first place.

A light-year-long ship? Now that's almost as long as longcat!

Huh, so The Man of the Hour has compassion for mere mortals? That's a relief. Too bad he destroyed the Doomsday Carrier, though. Couldn't he just have fixed the AI?

Well, the thing about The Man of the Hour (that I forgot to mention) is that he also has a unusual sense of humor when, rarely, defeating enemies that primitive life finds to be unstoppable. He likes to see them go out with a bang because the enemies he destroys have an "I'm unstoppable" mentality to make them realize that they were being extremely overconfident. When the Doomsday Carrier was being sucked into the black hole, the ship's AI was probably thinking "How could this happen? I'm the most advanced compared to all of the galaxy! I've should have been more cautious! This is impossible!" After doing this, the MoTH was likely thinking: "Hahahaahahaaa... look who's powerless now!"

...That's actually pretty scary.

At least if you're some supposedly invincible, super-advanced being bent on the conquest or destruction of lesser lifeforms ;__;
