Chapter 203: Back In Race

[You can read 60 chapters in advance and GOT fic on -patreon.com/misterimmortal.]

Since not much of New York City was left, Hector had to move outside the area to find a building where he could hold a press conference. Thankfully, with the help of UGF(United Galactic Federation), he was able to set up a few satellites to ensure the planet stayed connected.

After that, he called most of the prominent news media people to have a chat and make some announcements. It took some time to gather them since most of them were hiding somewhere or had crapped their pants.

Hours later, the big room was packed with a crowd of reporters sitting or standing anywhere they found a place. When Hector walked in, they all tensed up and started barraging questions.

"Calm down, you all. I'm not running away anytime. In fact, let's just sit on the floor as I'm sure many of you are still shaken by what just happened. An alien invasion... it's crazy." Hector waited for everyone to sit down first. "I will answer your questions later; for now, let me say what I want to.

"Yes, I am the same Hector King Washington that you all know from your history books. Where was I? Well, I was in space. Yes, you heard me right. I went there because I feard for this day. During my years of presidency, I came across so many unexplainable things that I can't even begin to explain.

"As you saw today out there, there were sorcerers creating portals to protect people. There were mutants... I call them Gifted Ones, protecting the people. There were also so many heroes. So you see, Earth is not weak; we have just not explored our full potential yet.

"Anyway, one of the things I learned back in the days was that we were not alone. Aliens exist, and they roam among us. We just never found them because they were technologically too advanced. I came to the realization of how weak as a species we were. So I went to space using experimental technology that should have killed me.

"But I survived and saw the wonders. So let me tell you, SPACE IS FULL! Yes, there are millions of other species, some like us and some so advanced that they had empires spanning a galaxy. So now you know where we stand. Any of these advanced civilisations could have come here and killed us.

"In fact, one of them attempted to destroy Earth back in 1997. If not for Earth's heroes, we'd be gone. Luckily, in space, I joined a war, a war against slavery, colonization, and monarchy. We defeated the biggest and the strongest galactic empire and established the United Galactic Federation, a governing body that runs two galaxies. I am a part of that Federation."

Hector calmed down now and let the information seep into their minds. He had snapped his gauntlet before to refresh all people's minds and make it, so they think more logically regarding aliens. He didn't control their minds, however.

After a few cameras flashed, he started again, "We were attacked today by an alien named Thanos. He is a warlord in space, sort of space Hitler. He believed that the Universe was overpopulated and overly dependent on resources. Something his own planet suffered from and eventually got destroyed. So Thanos wished to wipe out half of the life from the Universe randomly. He destroyed many planets in his mad pursuit, and Earth was next.

"Thankfully, I was here on time. With the help of heroes, sorcerers, and my friends from United Galactic Federation, we were able to defeat him." He tried to show a scared face and added, "I don't want to think what would have happened if all this was not here."

He had dropped all the bombs he needed to without making them appear too big. He left out the infinity stones and the fact that he was President of the UGF.

"Sir, what happens to Earth now?" One report asked.

"Nothing. According to the United Galactic Federation laws, Earth has not yet evolved naturally into a space civilisation. We are too divided and under-developed in terms of technology. So we don't fit the category to join the space community yet. However, the UGF will ensure no alien species can disrupt life on Earth anymore without getting involved on the surface.

"It's on humanity now to invest in technology and evolve. We have a goal in sight, and we just need to reach it." He answered. This was honestly the best-case scenario for now.

"Sir, what will the next move be? The whole city is gone; what are your plans?"

Hector looked around, doing his usual theatrics, "Well, it's time to rebuild. New York will be remade, better than ever before. Not just New York but every city in the world harmed by this invasion will be rebuilt. I have some ideas, but I can't confirm them yet.

"However, one thing I would like to add is that I will be running for president this year."

This announcement earned him more reaction than any before. And as he expected, a lot of hands were rising. Hector allowed one smart-looking guy, "Sir, as per your own proposed law, the term is limited to two now. How will you be eligible?"

At that, he grinned, "Well, section 9 of the amendment reads that no person shall be allowed to run for president more than two times in one human lifespan. And if I remember it right, the law that created Baby Bonds also clarified the max-age of an average human as 140.

"I was born on 4th July 1870; right now, it is 2012. This makes me 142 years old, hence beyond what the law stipulates. Therefore, I can legally run for President again for more terms."

(￣▽￣)"(●__●)(•ˋ _ ˊ•)(ಠ▃ಠ)

Jaws fell, and faces were made. It was a low ball for sure, but a legal one at that. Nobody could argue about this, no matter where folks go. Supreme Court? Sure, go ahead.

"Oh, by the way, the current President was arrested by SHIELD for his actions of launching the nukes. He could have killed more people today than the invasion itself. Also, I will be holding another press conference tomorrow to lay the foundation stone to rebuild New York and thank the people who helped the planet. Good night, take care," Hector walked away from the mic and then out of the room.

The reporters were in such a shock that they didn't even try to follow him. They simply accepted everything. However, some of the old journalists just smirked as they were all too familiar with Hector's style. They simply smiled and left.

"That was a brutally honest interview," Diana exclaimed.

Hector chuckled, "They need it. The world has become too diplomatic. So much so that they'd rather hear a lie than hear the truth and have their feelings hurt."

"It's gonna make a problem for your upcoming election."

"Bwahaha... I was president for more than 40 years, Diana. Winning the election is the easy part. Doing a good job is the real test. Let's go; I'm tired and hungry."

...

Wakanda had protected most of Central Africa from invasion. But now, they feared being invaded by other nations.

The Black Panther was now in front of the world, along with the technology of Wakanda. As a result, nearly every major arms smuggler and organization like HYDRA were drooling.

"Baba, they are already trying to find out about us. It's a matter of time before they start knocking down the doors."

T'Chaka was the Black Panther right now. He believed in keeping Wakanda in secrecy, but situations had pushed his hands. He, too, feared the hyenas now, "I know, T'Challa. But we must keep our minds and eyes open to be able to see all the right paths. I believe there is one man in the world who can ensure the safety of Wakanda, Wakandans and the Vibranium."

T'Challa quickly realized whom his father was talking about, "That man? But he's a politician. Why would he help us?"

"Haha, it seems you still need to learn how to judge people better, son. Let's go; we need to visit him."

...

Nebula, the daughter of Thanos, was still alive and currently on the run. Thanos had lost the fight, and the army was gone. There were no other means to leave the planet and return to space civilisation.

Stuck and scared for her life, she tried to make sense of the society and blend in. However, her facial features made it impossible to go unnoticed.

"STOP THERE!"

She was stopped by the SHIELD agents in no time and taken into custody. The best she could do was to cooperate, lest she might earn the ire of the planet's ruler, Hector King Washington.
