(Nick Fury)

November 28th, 2013
[Location Redacted]
Morning

 

He was going to find whoever did this, and either kill or hire them. Someone has stolen his alien cat! Goose disappeared yesterday. He looked for her everywhere, even in the entire building! His smartphone began ringing; he fished it out of his coat and looked at the ID’s number. It was Phil Coulson.

“Yes, Coulson?”

“Sir.” His previous partner greeted him.

Work was always going to distract Nick, some agents couldn't stop reporting for a goddamned day.  “If it’s not important, I will hang up. I have something rather pressing to do.” Like watching the security camera recording of his apartment yet again in the search for Goose.

“I don’t know if it's important, but I have received some data from NASA you might wish to see. It was fascinating to watch.” Coulson said in code.

When he said that it was fascinating, he meant that he had no idea what was happening with the data but that Nick should look. “Send it.”

He hung up on Coulson and waited over thirty seconds and received the email on the encrypted SHIELD app. He still watched his computer workstation’s screen with the camera videos. Goose had disappeared two days ago. Did Goose possess teleportation? It was the only way for her to leave the building that they had for themselves.

Ping! Nick immediately clicked on the notification icon which slid up from the taskbar and a window opened.

ESA/Hubble
Subject: Mars
Unknown event [Link]

Clicking on the link, a video opened in the picture app. It was a rendered picture of an event caught by the Hubble telescope. The file was quite large, it was 80 Mb; Nick was happy that he always got connected via fiber, his internet was faster than in the pentagon. When the picture finally loaded, he understood why Coulson was so disturbed by it. There was something gigantic covering and blowing a cone of energy onto Mars. “What the hell is that shit?”

But before he could act on the information he just received, something distracted him. 

Meow. Nick turned on the right and saw Goose appear at the entrance of his study. He stood up, yelling, “Goose! You’re back, where were you?! Come here girl.”

(Odin Borson)

 

Spying on Jean and Hela…

 

Odin and Frigga were looking into the scrying mirror in Frigga's magic workshop. The fight between Hela and Jean had lasted an entire day; an entire day where they passed on their responsibility onto Thor and Odin’s ministers. When the fight ended, the two women started to talk, of course there was no sound but they could read lips. It was a skill necessary as Frigga was also the spy Mistress in the royal palace.

Everything ended up like Odin had anticipated it, Jean won… but something had to go awry. It all started when Hela kissed Jean and the redhead kissed her back and the two of them started to get into a heated bout of sexual intercourse. The Queen had averted her eyes from the scene and had forced Odin to stop looking for a time by deactivating her scrying mirror. 

This was the first time that Odin felt like this, like a perverted old man spying on his daughter's trysts with her Beau. But what happened when said Beau was stronger than Odin? It became frustrating how powerless he felt even though he was rejuvenated now. But he also realized that he had no business feeling this way when he hurt his own child like he did. She was an adult and a terrific combatant who surpassed him.

Seeing Jean fight with her on equal ground had been eye opening; she didn't need to use her Phoenix Avatar powers to fight Hela. And Hela at full power, even now more powerful since the realm was restored.

"I told her to defeat her, not lay with her!" Odin was still furious at the girl.

Frigga said, "The heart wants what it wants, husband. But I agree that I didn't anticipate this, Jean is still a teenager and those have control issues most of the time. Do you remember Thor's laying with some of the maids when he hit 150?"

Odin averted his eyes, he remembered that time quite well and had to make sure that none of the maids ended up pregnant, there had been some social climbers amongst them that he had to let go or transfer to some other noble houses.

They came back to spying on the two women three hours later, only to find them under a Vanir-like tent, it's called a yurt, if he remembered it correctly. Jean and Hela were laying on a bed and sleeping entangled with each other. Until the redhead woke up and looked straight at Odin and Frigga and they disappeared from view when the girl said, "No peeping!" 

At least that’s what they read on her lips and the two royals were now only looking at a patch of green grass. "How did she do that?"

(R-18)

(Skippable)

 

Back with Jean…

 

Okay, that happened, I slept with Hela. And I'd do it again! Damn, that woman was a psychopath in bed! I felt a tad guilty too, I betrayed Anna-Marie, rather easily; however there's also the fact that I was stuck in the MCU for ten long years while my other selves would be taking care of everything and everyone.

I don't know how I will make it work, but I will. Hela needed help, a lot of it, she’s been alone for thousands of years and a bit of mental healing was due. I could give her that. Staying all alone… I don't think I would be able to endure it, humans were social creatures. But being a telepath had made me wary of human interactions, it was only the presence of my parents and sisters that made me hold on all those years when I practically stood apart from the other kids as I grew up.

Closing my eyes I could feel the revolution of the planet around the star, a day and a half have passed. It was time to go back, but did I want to go back right away? We could tour the planet while heading to the Golden City. Hela wasn’t sleeping anymore, I could feel her mind waking up as she held onto me. "Hela… we must go to the city."

I can’t believe we’re like this right now… we tried to kill each other -mostly- one day ago. The Goddess of death groaned and tightened her hold on me. "No, this is the best bed ever… How long do you think it’s been since I slept on one?"

Her eyes were still closed as she said this, causing me to go, “Aww.” 

I kissed her brow and said, "I don't want to think about that, I would have gone insane in your stead."

Yeah, I would be plotting my revenge on the one who imprisoned me. Huh, I think Hela was still planning it; using my precog I saw that she was indeed… going to try to kill Odin, and I couldn’t have that. Oh it’s because I didn’t give her mental healing on the way. What happens if I do? Ah, she disinherits him and cuts her father-daughter relationship with Odin. *This is a better outcome, I guess.*

Hela turned on the bed and let go of me, the sheets covering her fell off, exposing her toned and beautiful body. My lust was instantly reignited, I really really wanted to do something about it, but I needed to control myself. "Please put something on…"

Putting my hands on her flanks, I tried to manifest some clothes on her with my powers. However, Hela caught them and pulled me in her embrace, holding me with enough force to cut a normal human in two, she had a serious expression. "You want me that much huh, I know that a beauty such as I is irresistible, but… why are you restraining yourself? Ravish me to your heart's content."

Did I say that she was a narcissist? She was even worse than me, Hela took what she wanted because she thought that she deserved it. Right at this moment, despite having lost to me, she now considered me hers now. I can't have that, I was my own person-

She crushed my lips with her own, not leaving me thinking too much. She broke our kiss and started to finger me and kiss my neck; Hela was clearly more experienced than me in sex, a situation that I wasn't used to. She made me cum in under five seconds with just her fingers.

The triumphant smile she gave me when I climaxed due to her ministration made her even bolder. For once I yielded control and let her have her way with me and focused on giving back pleasure by using my TK to caress her body all over and stimulate her erogenous zones, in particular a construct that penetrated her vagina and started vibrating.

"Oh, yes! Don't stop!" Using my powers I started cheating and slapped her ass, and gobbled her right nipple. I loved her boobs, they were so springy and elastic!

I switched sexual organs, but still kept my feminine attributes, turned the table on Hela and it was her turn to be on her back. Then I sheathed myself inside of her and held onto her wrist with superstrength and started plowing into her then kissed her. Hela wrapped her legs around me, keeping me closer to her body; the bed started creaking as we went at it.

She had been loving the fact that I could switch between woman and man sexual organs at the drop of a hat and said something about us being able to have heirs now. Whatever she meant by this, I didn't want any kids yet. 

Hela started encouraging me by saying stuff like, "Take what is yours! Grind my defenses down! I am cumming! Defile my temple and give me your heirs!" The girl had an impregnation fetish and didn't hesitate to bite me until I bled, something that I didn't hesitate to reciprocate, I left countless marks on her body that had left scars despite her regenerative healing factor. I think that she controlled it…

The thing with girls with superstrength, regeneration and stamina was that their refractory periods were extremely short. I lost count of how many times I climaxed inside of her in just one hour. When I needed a break I used my telekinetic tentacles to work her over, never leaving her unattended for a second or else she would catch me, pull me toward her and sit on my face to make me lick her pussy and ass.

She was domineering and relentless, but I loved making her scream my name. We lost three hours in the morning this way.

3 hours later…

 

I was panting, my chest heaving as weakness momentarily filled my body before a rush of lifeforce revived me, washing out my exhaustion. Hela adapted to the strength of my augmented body in the end, but I won! And the dripping of white seminal fluid between her legs and her satisfied expression made me feel a sense of contentment and superiority. I had to cheat with my powers to keep up and make her climax continuously until she started making ahegao faces at me.

When I stared at Hela, she looked at me in a sultry manner and touched her naked belly in a sensual manner. "Can't we continue, Jean? Don't you want to make me submit under you? Don't you want to… fill me up and mark me as yours?"

Image of her boobs and ass jiggling as I fucked her as if my life depended on it came into mind. The woman was insatiable… She knew exactly what to say to rile someone up or seduce them. I shook my head to allow myself to focus. "Hela… hon, you're distracting me."

"Well of course I am, how am I supposed to incite you into mounting me?" She said crudely after an unladylike snort and a smirk.

I gasped at the phrasing she used; then I scowled at her and said with an exasperated tone, "Put your clothes back on."

She grinned and said challengingly, "Make me."

I closed my eyes and forcefully calmed myself down; I had almost thrown myself at her to slap her and… no it's what she wants. For things to get violent and make me fuck her roughly. My precognition told me that she wanted more sex, because Hela had gone without for so long, she craved being touched and brutalized and defiled by me because she… liked me? I noticed a strange pattern about myself, I attracted the yandere, and broken bird type of girls. This was a bit annoying, but if my experience with Anna, Cindy and Hela was enough to parse from, they fucked like pros.

Reluctantly -That’s not true- I stood up and walked up to Hela, and kneeled between her legs; I could feel a sense of anticipation blossoming in her. I wasn’t beyond denying her. Reaching for her hands, I kissed her knuckles and said, "Honey, I will definitely take you up on your offer to worship your body and savage you for a week. But not now, we need to go, the old man -Odin- is spying on us."

I felt her frustration at me refusing her, but right as I finished my sentence she sprung up from bed and stood in her black and green outfit. "What?! He dares!?"

A big ass shimmering black spear appeared into her hand. I stood up and held onto her shoulders. "Calm down, gorgeous. I know it's a breach of privacy. He will be… reprimanded."

Yeah, no one looked onto my girls and I fucking; this isn’t a porn vid and my name isn’t Paris Hilton or Kim Kardashian! Hela’s fury dissipated right away, but she still looked pissed. "I believe you, but is there naught that you can do about his trespass?"

She wanted revenge and to take care of whatever Odin was using to spy on them. I smiled and said with a smug tone, “Already did.”

I basically phased the tent sheltering us out of the current dimension, at least shallowly, we were still on Asgard. My eyes fell on Hela, and I noticed that she was still in the same outfit we fought in. I couldn’t help but suggest, "Can you put on some color other than black?”

Hela looked at me, then her outfit changed from green and black to red and black, even her magic switched colors. Did she just change her entire color scheme?! I was a bit surprised and it must have shown on my face because Hela proudly pushed out her chest and had a cocktail grin.

I couldn't help but compliment her with a smile. "Oh, red suits you a lot."

"It's my favorite second color, but if I put it on, the blood splatters aren't too visible…" She complained.

My smile froze. *Right. I had to stick it in the crazy gal.*

So this is why men make so many mistakes… and stick to their guns when they see how crazy some women are? Hela moved and wrapped herself around me, asking, "Do you have any beverages?"

When did I become the provider in this relationship? I should be the one being pampered right now… but instead of saying that, I reached from my stash in my pocket space and pulled out a drinking horn full of Mead and I used my budding cryokinesis on it to make it cold, as if it had spent ten hours in a fridge.

Then I handed it to Hela who looked at the jeweled and decorated horn. "Here, this is chilled Mead."

She took it reverently and began drinking it. "Pah! It's delicious, sugary and it’s strong!"

*No shit, this drink would have killed a normal human man. Though I’m still experimenting with the reality stone for alcohol. Maybe I can make alcohol that allows someone to fly…*

With special alcohol I would be able to buy my way into other people's good graces. Sometimes force and blackmail isn’t the only alternative.

"I have a lot of food and water in my pocket space." I practically copied the entirety of the Palace’s larder in my pocket space thanks to the Reality Stone. I won't go hungry for a while, there was enough food for three years.

However, Hela’s announcement dashed my prognosis of my situation. She slapped my shoulder two times and shouted, "I demand a feast!"

*I had to sleep with the bloodthirsty viking space princess.* 

"Yes, Princess." I subconsciously manifested a table and some chairs.

Then I choose to make silverwares appear: fork, knives, ladles, spoon and plates on which I loaded with roasted meat, bread, meat pies, stew, vegetables -mostly potatoes and yams- and fruits. There were also two casks of mead and wine, those were from the King's own cellars.

"Here my Princess, there is plenty there to share." I was hugged strongly enough that if I were a normal girl my bones would be dust by now.

"I like it, you pamper me, your lover, as you should." Hela proclaimed.

She pulled me toward the table and sat me down, and then she sat at my side and began loading a plate for me.

"Already putting a label on our relationship? You move fast." I said, a bit overwhelmed.

When she was done, Hela slid the plate before me. "I won't find anyone better, you're powerful, and easy on the eye, and as thirsty for battle as I am."

I raised my finger to argue with her, then I thought about how I loved using my powers to fight, bleed and maim my enemies… then lowered my index finger. "You've got a point."

"We fought almost to the death, now I know you better than you might think. Here, drink this." Hela said as she put a cup of wine before me.

This is how I spent lunchtime with Hela, and I liked it. She may be brash, arrogant and proud but she seemed… nice, downright caring with me. She was also really touchy-feely, her hands always brushing my skin or patting my shoulder and arms; though I could do without the slapping of my back when she laughed at my jokes. 

But, she was cute in a way, despite her outgoing or self assured countenance, I felt that Hela was being awkward. She must not be used to being in a relationship. When we were done with eating, Hela looked downright dozy and her face was full of contentment. She burped by covering her mouth, when I looked at her, her cheeks reddened and averted her eyes in embarrassment. 

I just smiled at her and decided to do something nice for her. "Do you want a massage and a hot bath?"

She whipped her head toward me, her eyes were full of hope and excitement.  "Do this for me, and I shall reward you handsomely, Jean."

The intensity of her gaze and her Asgardian accent made my temperature rise and my panties wet. "I like your accent when you say my name."

(Hela Odinsdottir) 

The sky
Flying over the Unnamed continent

 

This entire situation was completely surreal; she was being serenaded while flying on a dragon’s back. Her, the ultimate warrior, Hela Odinsdottir? Hela watched as the mighty blue scaled beast she sat on beat its wings leisurely. After Hela’s massage and bath, Jean asked Hela to wait and then proceeded to use her mighty creation powers to give life to a blue Dragon with jewel-like scales the size of a warship and with great wingspan.

Jean gave it the name of Sapphira and began patting it. Hela had been standing transfixed and mildly afraid when she saw the sword like teeth in the Dragon’s mouth. The Goddess of death could feel the magical power radiating from the wyrm, it was like being really close to a star. Hela didn’t think that Jean created this gigantic and apocalyptic Dragon on a whim. *She must want to strike fear in the heart of the Asgardian armies and intimidate Odin.*

Hela tightened her hand around Jean’s waist, listening to her voice as she sang for her. 

“I can show you the world

Shining, shimmering, splendid

Tell me, Princess

Now when did you last let your heart decide?

I can open your eyes

Take you wonder by wonder

Over, sideways and under

On a Dragon ride

A whole new world

A new fantastic point of view

No one to tell us no

Or where to go

Or say we're only dreaming…”

Hela liked it, it sounded exactly fitting as she looked at all the land under them. Asgard having somehow been restored explained why Hela felt this powerful since she arrived. It had been destroyed in the time of Bor, leaving only a little piece of it floating in space. The current continent they flew over was all rolling hills, mountains, primeval forest and rivers. They've already left the plains and biggest mountain where they portaled; and discovered that it was full of small tribes of kobolds, goblins and orcs. 

The Goddess of death was surprised, and only remembered some small old tales about those species. But what she retained from the stories she read and heard told that they were dangerous if they gathered in numbers.; then she thought about it, Asgardian armies needed exercises anyway, and culling those brutish creatures would continue to hone them and keep them sharp.

“How do you like it?” Jean’s voice pulled Hela out of her train of thought.

Jean looked up at her by raising her head, and said head was resting between the Goddess of death’s breast; Hela was taller than the redhead and she loved this position. “The ride? It is a first for me, thank you.”

Shaking her head, Jean said, “No, the planet, silly. I restored Asgard by myself, you know.”

Hela’s arms tightened around Jean as she yelled, “YOU WHAT?!”

Jean slapped the princess’ arms two times, “Hey, that hurt a bit.”

The redhead exhaled in relief when Hela loosened her grip. “Ah, my apologies.”

Her red haired lover continued to speak, enlightening Hela. “Like I was saying… I’m a Phoenix Avatar, Hela. Nothing is impossible for someone of my station.”

That’s what the princess of Asgard couldn’t understand. Shouldn’t Jean be in space and doing her duty, creation and destruction of worlds, fix what needs to be fixed, give life to new species and such tropes? “Why are you on Asgard?”

Jean said nothing for a moment, the beat of Sapphira’s wings filling the silence until the redhead said, “I will tell you tonight, okay?”

Hela could understand Jean’s reluctance to reveal her goals, they’d been fighting to the death and it’s barely been a day. The Goddess of death could be patient, “It’s a promise?”

“Yes it is.” Jean nodded.

It didn’t take much time to reach the coastal area of the continent they’d been living on. In the water, Hela could spy great Krakens and Sea Serpents fighting for dominance and it was awe inspiring.

It was moments like this that Hela was thinking that she was dreaming, that she was still in that cave in Hel, engraving the story of having met a red haired woman who swept her off her feet by defeating her and bringing her back to her world. Obviously her lover had to be someone of superior station to herself, why not a world destroyer with infinite power?

Her heart beat with trepidation just by thinking about it, was this reality or a dream? Because if it was a dream she didn't want to wake up. Jean was warm and full of life and she fucked her like she owned Hela. Hela deep down wanted to be owned but it was still too early for that kind of commitment. 

Sapphira began descending, on a beach with sufficient space for the Dragon to land. The beast roared as it landed onto the sand, raising a sand cloud, creating a mini earth tremor at the same time. "Yay, we've reached the equator."

Hela looked around, they had landed at the end of this beach, the water was blue and around them, large palm trees towered into the sky. She could hear a river flowing behind her and pouring into the sea. Showing that this place was a partially enclosed coastal body of brackish water. "Nice place, could be a good resting spot."

If she had a mind for it, Hela would already be building a summer palace there, it looked quite idyllic. 

They used the Dragon’s wing like a ramp to come down off the beast, then Jean put her hand on the Dragon’s flank. “We’re going to camp here tonight. Sapphira, time to change form, you want food, no?”

“Change form?” The giant dragon clawed the sandy ground, creating a huge gash and started to glow with shimmering blue light all over its body. The huge Dragon’s form retracted as if it folded onto itself and lo and behold, here stood a little girl with white horns, sapphire blue hair and scales on her hands. She was also wearing a brown top and white frilly skirt and brown boots.

Hela asked herself if the disparity in size of Sapphira’s different form were intended to disarm any animosity toward her and force feelings of protection from the instinctual wants of humanoids to safeguard children. Because Hela didn’t want to do anything to hurt her, it was even more evident when the little humanoid dragon curtsied and lowered her eyes. “Thank you for your generosity, Great Mother. Oh and it is a great pleasure to meet you formally, Goddess of Death, Hela.”

Hela turned to Jean and asked, “What in Ymir’s name-!”

Did Jean just create life just like that? She had thought that Sapphira was just a pet Jean decided to make with her power? Doesn’t the redhead realize what she just did on the fly?

“Don’t mind Hela, she wasn’t aware that you could change form.” Jean patted the polymorphed dragon on the head.

Sapphira closed her eyes in delight; and Hela began thinking that the Dragon chose this form exactly for headpats. Jean coughed and looked over the horizon, the sea was roiling as a giant sea serpent emerged. “We’re going to eat one of those big sea serpents.”

The snake was now floating in the air and being knotted as if someone was holding onto it. The intense focus of the redhead showed Hela that it was her who was doing this. “Jean, what are you doing?!” Hela panicked when she saw the monster being catapulted toward them and crashing ten meters from them on the beach. 

Booom! The sand cloud raised by the beast landing was immediately scattered by Jean as she flicked it with her finger.

The redhead looked at the little Dragon. “Is this going to be enough for you, Sapphira?”

HISSSSSS!!! The giant black serpent opened its mouth and breathed a hyper compressed stream of water at them only held off by Jean who turned it into vapor; but it smelled horrible, causing Hela to pinch her nose closed. “I don’t like the smell of its breath. Kill it.”

Sapphira moved forward and cracked her tiny knuckles. “With pleasure!”

Dark clouds gathered in the sky, a flash storm with thunder and lightning created overhead; surprising Hela that the tiny humanoid Dragon could do this. A gigantic Spear of lightning formed from the cloud and descended toward the sea serpent and struck it in the head. 

BOOOMM!! KRAAAAACK!! KZZZZTTTTT!!

The serpent was now deprived of its head, only the rest of its long body remained and it kept moving and convulsing because the electricity was still arcing around it. Hela asked herself, *What manner of being did Jean create? A magic wielding Dragon?*

"Great Mother, could you…?" The Little Dragon contorted herself cutely with a shy smile.

Hela was right, this great beast was a master manipulator… Jean smiled and said, "Time to cook."

Hela couldn’t help but think that it was an impossible task. "Cook? How? How are you going to render a ship sized great serpent?"

Jean glanced at her, and the corner of lips curved into a smile. "Just watch, my Princess."

Hela obeyed and watched as Jean lifted the creature into the air and  said, "We will first get rid of the scales." 

The scales began to fall off the entire carcass and stored inside Jean’s pocket space, then with a finger made it look like she sliced open the carcass of the creature. "Then we open it up."

Multiple fleshy lumps attached to muscles started hanging out of the inside of the body and squelched onto the ground. They were made to disappear and a shower of blood that almost covered Jean and Hela, but the red liquid was made to gather in an invisible bowl. "Get rid of the organs and bleed the body."

This continued for a while, and as Jean was finished gathering the blood, she froze it completely and put it into her space. "We will only get a part of the meat and leave the rest to Sapphira."

"Yes!" The Dragon jumped and turned into her giant form and took the prepared carcass into its maw and started tearing and ripping chunks out of it and devouring.

Jean conjured a thick silver plate and at least thirty kilograms of marbled meat appeared on it. Hela found it fascinating how the redhead was using her powers to cook by pulling salt from the air, spices and condiments to season the meat. Tables and chairs appeared behind Hela and she went to sit; a powerful aroma started to fill the air, it was akin to bird meat but with a tang of salt.

When Jean was done, the silver plate floated toward the table and landed before Hela; a knife came into being and planted itself in the table next to the plate. Two mugs full of red liquid materialized on the table, the redhead sat in turn, Jean grabbed one and yelled, “SKÅL!”

“SKÅL!” Mimicked Hela, not knowing what they were cheering for.

It didn’t matter, they started to eat and… Hela moaned in pleasure at the sea serpent meat. Jean was a good provider and excellent cook! The two women gorged themselves, feeling their body getting stronger. the more they ate, the more power they absorbed. The damage of millenia of imprisonment were washed over in just a diner. But this wasn’t the only thing that was going to happen to the Goddess of Death.

"Hela?" Jean called out her name.

"Yes?" The Princess was holding onto her distended belly.

“Did you feel the power rush we got from this?” The redhead asked, she looked at her hands; opening and closing her fist.

Hela smiled, Jean didn’t know that she could gain strength this way. “Yes, I feel stronger, I am back to at least my peak before I was imprisoned.”

“Excellent, then I can do this." Jean created a ball of fire and threw it between Hela and herself, it expanded and the heat washed over them. The two women ended up naked, Hela then looked at Jean approaching her, taking her hand and sitting on a conjured red carpet with green and red cushions around her. 

Then proceeded to place Hela’s head on the redhead’s thighs. “What, why?” Why was she doing this?

Jean looked her lover in the eyes. “Hela, you and I are going to speak heart to heart. Let’s help each other.”

(Jane Foster)

 

Asgard
The golden city

Jane was being violently trained by this angel lady in the usage of magic. It was always about light and fire, and Jane was sick and tired of always going to Eir for burn treatments. The Angelus Warriors were not able to tire and their strength was on par with Thor without his Hammer.

It hurt and it hurt a lot. Being thrown around randomly like a ragdoll by a winged dog the size of a van was not fun. Despite her growing combat prowess, Jane was still unable to fight like those millennia old Asgardians she lived with. But with a liberating cry, Jane screamed, "I hate you Jean!!"

Slap! Gabriel, her instructor, slapped her ass with the flat of her sword. "Don't disrespect the Lady of Fire."

Jane glared at Gabriel. "Oh, sod off!" She threw a punch toward the angelic being; but it was diverted and she got slapped on her bottom once more.

SLAP! “And don't disrespect me. Why can’t you be like the Sisters of Battle? See how dedicated they are?”

Jane looked at the cohort of Asgardian female teenagers with platinum dyed hair working through drills and helped by Remiel. Jean has inspired an entire generation of girls to emulate her and become warriors or sorceresses; there was an entire new school of magic being created away from the golden city and into the new continent bordering Odin’s lands. Sif and other old timers rather hated what was happening, she would have preferred that it was she who had inspired young girls to follow her example.

“Run! Run as if your life depended on it!” Remiel shouted.

"YES, SIR REMIEL!!" The girls wore red tunics and shorts that didn't hinder their movements. They were running around the training ground with heavy packs on their back. Jane had held onto one of these, it was like holding onto a minivan and those girls were running with those?! Jane had never felt so inadequate before.

However, all of a sudden the peace of the city was broken when a gigantic shadow spread over it.

ROAR!!!

Jane looked up and was blinded by the blue flash of light hitting her eyes. She shielded them and then was confronted with the immense form of a scaled creature the size of an airbus. The alarm rang all over the city at the view of the gigantic beast.

Jane looked at Gabriel and saw her smiling. "Ah the Lady is back."

The human turned asgardian shouted, "No you idiot! That's a Dragon!"

With a deadpan look, Gabriel said, "You're wrong." Deployed her wings and shot up into the sky toward the creature.

(General overview)

 

The remaining defenses of Asgard activated, the thaumic Cannon came online and targeted the large creature. They fired only for an orange barrier taking the shape of octagonal waves of energy to come alive and stop the destructive magical energy to reach the Dragon. Fighters were dispatched and crashed against the barrier or were routed out by the Dragon’s wings flapping with lightning arcing from it.

From the palace a huge golden beam shot out, it was Odin’s Gungnir being thrown at full power, but the barrier tanked the hit of the famed spear. But it was a close thing. A huge gravely voice shouted, “This is fun! Give me more!!”

More cannons came online and this time they fired non-stop. Not until a rain of blue energy attacked each turret with pinpoint accuracy and silenced them but didn't destroy them.

“Stop!” An old voice but strong boomed from the Palace’s tower.

"The beast is sapient." The voice warned again for all to hear.

The Dragon began to circle the palace. "What? Don't stop! Fight me! I want to win the bet! I want my snakey treats!"

The inhabitants of the golden city were mystified by what was happening and collectively stumped. Why was the Dragon asking to be attacked? The voice also reminded them of an immature child not getting what they wanted. 

Their king's voice boomed once more. "Jean, Hela stop playing games and frightening the populace!"

On the training ground some of the guards and warriors understood what was happening, someone was pulling a huge prank on them. It was confirmed when they heard a cold and amused voice reply back, "Awww but it was so funny!"

The sky cleared, letting a blue and cloudless morning take over from the somber stormy one created via magic. The beast in the sky then started to land in the courtyard of the castle where the gardens were located, but it lost girth the more it approached the ground.

It was the maids and the palace courtiers who witnessed four people standing in Frigga's garden with wariness.

(Odin Borson)

 

Palace’s gardens

 

They were finally here, Odin had lost track of them after they went on a tour of the Realms and killed monsters and magical creatures in their way. It frightened Odin but nothing had slowed them down and without meaning to, they accumulated mystical power from the flesh of the creature they ate.

It was how it was done in the Asgard of old, how his people kept getting stronger and stronger. He felt his wife trailing behind him with soft footsteps. Exiting the courtyard’s entrance, Odin looked at the Angelus warrior, Gabriel, holding onto a little waif of a girl with blue hair and white outfit. And sitting on benches were Hela and Jean, hand in hand.

Odin didn’t know what to think of those two getting together; that he didn’t know what such an unholy union would bring scared him. The future was now fully in flux, nothing could be divined and it was terrifying; but he felt his hand being pulled into another one, it was Frigga who was reassuring him. She looked even more beautiful than usual, they’ve been very active in their bedchambers as of late. It wasn’t the moment to think about his and his wife's bedroom activities.

Jean stood up from the bench she’s been sitting on; flowers blossomed and the tree’s leaves became greener. There was a power play happening right now. "Avatar…"

She was wearing an atypical red and gold outfit with some black barely there robes that he would have forbidden her to wear if she was his daughter; the artifact at her right arm shining with the power of the Reality and Space Stones. "As promised, I have freed Hela from Hel… nice place by the way. Oh yeah, I had to do some aftercare before we came here. She was more liable to kill you with a Necrosword than stand before you. You're welcome."

“You have my… thanks.” Odin nodded, still holding onto his spear; his eyes fell onto the red and black clad form of his first born.

"Daughter."

She was on him right away, only held back by some powerful force exerted by the Avatar. "Stop, I am no one to you, I'm over you, Odin!"

Hela was pulled back toward Jean who put her arms around the Goddess of death’s waist. Odin looked at his side, Frigga’s hands were glowing with a magic circle, ready to strike. "I did expect to be repudiated but…"

He shouldn’t have expected to have a cordial conversation with Hela; but he had hoped that she would be cognizant enough to offer her a place back at his table. Wishful thinking; Jean was speaking in hushed whisper to the taller Asgardian woman who was nodding. The redhead raised on her tiptoes and kissed Hela full on the mouth; she settled down and then just glared balefully at Odin.

Hela stayed near the Angelus warrior and the shrunken Dragon, because yes, despite the smaller form the blue haired youngling exuded so much power that she couldn’t be anything else. Jean stood before Odin, stared at Frigga; they must have exchanged greetings through telepathy because the Queen simply smiled and waved at her.

Jean’s eyes found Odin’s lone eye. "As I said before, we're going to leave, All-Father. I have some businesses and war crimes waiting for me on Earth."

Odin frowned. “What?!”

What did she intend to do on Midgard?! Hela laughed, having heard what her paramour planned to do. “I’m suddenly very interested in our visit to Midgard, love!” The Goddess of death yelled out to her.

“We’re gonna have fun!” Jean threw a thumbs up at Hela.

Odin calmed himself down, it wasn’t like he could stop them; he knew when he was outmatched. Actually it was great that these two monsters were leaving, who knows what chaos they would bring on Asgard if they stayed? Jean had already started a cult amongst his people, practically all teenage girls worshiped her. Her Angelus warriors told whoever wanted to hear about her miracles and prowess in combat.

If they stayed, he realized, they would start building a power base that he might not be able to excise from Asgard. Odin wanted Thor to inherit the throne without issue and Hela and Jean threatened that."Very well, I will contact you if anything of import occurs."

Jean tilted her head and smiled cunningly. "We're going to get Thor, Jane and the rest of the gang, see you, Swole Daddy!"

Before she could leave, Frigga threw something to Jean, who casually snatched it out of the air, then a portal of blue light simply swallowed everyone behind her.

*Still irreverent.*

Back with Jean…
Bifrost

 

I stopped walking in the middle of the bridge, looking up into the sky where the real work was happening. I wasn't going to take the Bifrost, it was too flashy for what I wanted to do. I wanted a ship of an imposing design because I had people depending on me. 

Behind me were Jane, Thor, Gabriel, Amora, Lorelei, Hela and Sapphira and the other doggo, Castiel. The crew was already assembled and that’s what mattered. Throughout all the timeline and universes I was looking for something suitable and spacious. A venator class ship? Nah. An ancient battleship? The fucking alphabet was too difficult to learn on those ships. My search stopped on a certain TV-show universe and Immediately took a template of the ship and its systems, then started building it with my own techniques and technology.

“Where are you taking us this time, Jean?” Jane interrupted me while we stood there.

I was inspired and wanted our ride to be amazing. The hull should be a mix of Vibranium/Trinium with an Adamantium skeleton and built with the technology of the Systems Commonwealth. A Glorious Heritage Class spaceship; I loved how beautiful they were. Yes, I was making my own Andromeda Ascendant.

Without looking at her, I told Jane, “Jane, stop whining, we’re going back to Earth. Didn’t you want to take Darcy and Selvig with you when we returned?”

I was giving her what she wanted, her own people in this damn world. I hope they will like being made into Asgardians too…

"Yes, but…" Jane looked at me with an undecided expression. She knew that when I wanted to do something it was as good as done. Why was she hesitating? Ah, she wanted to prove herself first before bringing the others on board. She really needed to get her priorities straight. 

"You're so silly, Jane." I told her by turning to her and poking her shoulder.

Jane batted away my hand and tried to do the same to me. The girl had no fear, at least.

“Calm down everyone, this is not the moment to bicker.” Thor placed himself between me and Jane, not wanting us to escalate this into a full fight.

We have had a tendency to go at it since I've started training her; she was tougher than three weeks ago. Gabriel did a good job of acclimatizing her to violence, Jane stopped flinching and freezing. I was confident that she could wipe out normal humans and other enhanced individuals now. 

Unless I stuff her in a danger room under a time dilation field with Thor and Gabriel she won't get any stronger now. Speaking of Danger Room! Let's get one inside the ship! Hmm, the bridge has no furniture, Let's look for one… Enterprise-F bridge? Yes, it's functional. I made some modifications to the hyperdrive to include this universe and another FTL drive. The most important though was Stealth, Romulan stealth cloaking was the most efficient and advanced I knew about.

“So this is… my brother.”

Thor made the mistake of invading Hela’s personal space, with a smile and a hand held out. “Well met, sister. I hope to get to-”

Hela pushed him away with a finger, making Thor fall off the bridge. I caught him just in time with my TK and brought him next to me. 

“Why is he so weak, Jean?” The Goddess of death asked her paramour. 

The redhead patted the Prince on the arm, he looked at Hela with big puppy eyes full of betrayal. “The guy spent a millenia using Mjolnir as a crutch, it’s not his fault. Odin kept pampering him. He is a good guy, please give him a chance?”

Thor was simply not strong enough to fight Hela right now; I mean after the sea serpent meat? It was a given, even my base body was strengthened by its essence  and inherent magic enough that I could give Steve Rogers a run for his money.

Hela gave a slow nod to me, then turned to Thor. “I will be watching you, brother…”

Why was Thor smiling? Was he that stupid to think it was all going to be alright? He gave her his best surfer dude smile. "And me you, sister."

Hela rolled her eyes and walked toward me to place herself on my right and take my hand. I looked up into her eyes, "That’s so cute, you two need a good fight to get to know each other."

"That’s actually a good idea. Maybe later." She acquiesced and grinned predatorily at the poor puppy prince who smiled back, not knowing what he just invited on himself by not refusing.

My Goth Princess placed my arm around her waist and asked, "So what are you doing right now? You only stay still when you are scheming something…"

"I am making our ride." I simply replied.

"We're not using the bifrost?" This was Jane asking that.

She looked quite disappointed, but I was adamant in not using it. It was too flashy and everyone would look for it. "No, we have enemies on Earth who will try to kill us as soon as we appear. They are our main objective in this reality. I think you'll appreciate our new ride. Just wait until you see it before you pass judgment."

I got back to work, but Hela seemed to want more information, she was tense as if she was preparing for a fight. "This is about the Time Variance Authority you spoke about to me last night?"

I nodded. "Yes, I intend to kill them and erase them from all timelines and realities."

Hela stared at me with a worried gaze. "That’s… very thorough."

Gabriel in her human form walked forward and kneeled before me. "How can I help, Lady of Fire?"

Castiel was at her side in his Husky form which begged me to start cuddling him but I resisted the impulse. "Be your awesome self, Gabby."

My Dragon daughter jumped up and down, attracting my attention. "Sapphira will kill them all!"

Jane looked between us and said, "Murder isn't the only solution…"

Lorelei and Amora stayed well away from us, knowing they were on thin ice. I was about done with building the ship and opened a space portal. "We're going to kill anyone who exits a time portal and time travels a lot."

"But time travel is… impossible, right?" Jane looked terribly out of her depth.

"Wrong again, Jane." I said and entered the blue aperture with Hela on my arm.

Andromeda Ascendant
In high orbit of Asgard
Bridge

 

The Andromeda Ascendant is the tenth Glorious Heritage Class heavy cruiser, built in the days of the old. The Glorious Heritage class, also known as the "XMC", is the most notable class of Warship in the fleet, and one of the most recognizable and visible symbols of the reach and power of the Systems Commonwealth. These vessels are some of the most powerful in the fleet, considered so prestigious that command is reserved for the best and the brightest. 

Glorious Heritage class cruisers are capable of high-endurance, independent operations. XMCs were often called upon to perform disaster relief and refugee support operations due to their spacious interiors and ability to ferry large quantities of emergency supplies and additional personnel, as well as possessing large medical facilities. During peacetime, XMCs are most often tasked with independent intergalactic exploration, charting and documenting the star systems of the Local Cluster, and providing relief for patrols. They are also the preferred platform for first contact missions, given their formidable combat capabilities and their ability to operate without a battlegroup - often critical to assuring potential Systems Commonwealth members that the High Guard comes in peace. Their immense weapons payload makes the Heritage class very good at settling border disputes and conducting combat operations ranging from planetary depopulation to surgical strikes. 

And I was now in possession of it; as I walked inside the operation center I marveled at how spacious it was. It was a large symmetrical room, placed deep within the main hull of the Andromeda. I completely changed the layout though because this bridge was basically a holodeck but the seats were real and command stations provided seating and information displays for the commanding officer and one or two other officers, typically including the first officer. The command chairs were located in the center of the bridge, to maximize interaction with all key bridge personnel, while permitting an unobstructed view of the main viewscreen. 

The armrests of the captain’s chair feature a micro-computer with holo-display which could deploy a haptic hard-light keyboard. The flight control positions were a combination of piloting and navigation which also serve as the slipstream pilot chair. Every other console or workstation was connected to the bulkhead in the bridge. The command center has its own power source and environmental system, which is crucial in case of boarding action.

There were hard-light emitters everywhere, to allow the Artificial Intelligence to interact with the crew; however, there were also androids there to help crew the spaceship. They seemed to all have generic and plain faces; besides Romi, the ship’s AI, no one had that sexiness that I liked in the show.

It was all shiny and purple on the bridge, and when I sat on the captain’s chair; a holo-window opened and booted up with the symbol of the High-Guard in the background. The Avatar of the Artificial Intelligence appeared on screen.

“Captain Grey, please enter your personal code to take command of this vessel.” She said with a blank face.

“Omega, Lambda, Excel, 9.” I gave my Commonwealth System codes.

No one but me knew them as I programmed them when I built this copy of Andromeda Ascendant.

“Checking… Verified. Scanning and loading biometrics… Welcome High Guard Captain Jean Elaine Grey.” The AI blank face became more expressive as she recognized me as its commanding officer.

I felt the others finally braving the portal and entering the ship through it. Hela paid attention to me especially, she knew about my plan and her place at my side. I vowed that I wouldn't betray her and to give herself to me. I will have to find a new anchor for her though, a world as beautiful and mystical as Asgard.

“What is your mission?” I asked her.

The seriously hot Half-Asian avatar appeared before me. “Obey High-Guard  Captain Jean Elaine Grey. Create a New Commonwealth system and seat Empress Silja Silfur on the throne of Terra 618 and its future conquered worlds.”

I gave her my hand, and she took it to pull me out of the captain’s chair. "Yes, welcome to the team, Romi."

She nodded. "Thank you, Ma'am."

When I turned to look behind me, Jane stood in her armor at Thor's side. The others looked like tourists as they watched the bridge's interior. "Jean, is this a spaceship?"

"I told you it would be worth your time, Jane." I smiled at the scientist turned Asgardian.

So right now I was giving access to space to a woman who wouldn't want to go now that she was inside the ship. Was Jane going to stay on-board and study space? Would she want her two other friends to come here too? An Astrophysicist and a PoliSci wouldn't be too much on the Andromeda. I intended to have more crew later. Mostly characters from fictional universes about to die who would work under me.

I knew who I wanted as an XO and a Femme Fatale assistant; I am looking at you Miranda and Shepard. I knew zilch about space travel on a ship and I wanted hands-on lessons by one of the best. And it was Jane Shepard for me, why not the male version? Because I would jump him and want his babies and I didn't want to cuck Hela. Our relationship was fragile, until I made her want to share a woman with me… I wasn't going to push.

"So, anyone wanna tour the ship?" I asked out loud.

Lorelei spoke for the first time since this morning. "Yeah! Let's do that."

It seemed she wanted to skedaddle from Asgard. Before that I gave the chip, Frigga had given it to me, and now I was doing so with Romi who smiled when she received it. "Loading Star Charts and regional data. Calculating distance from Asgard to Sol system."

"9 months and 2 weeks with Slipstream drive; 1 day with Marvel Jump Drive and instant with Blink Drive." Romi added.

"Jump Drive engaged, compensating for acceleration…" Romi took us out of Asgard orbit in the direction of Sol.

Welp, now I know what to use in priority. I turned to the Dragon who had walked toward me, she hugged my leg and I immediately put a hand on her head. "Sapphira, I will show you where you're sleeping, you'll love it."

I floated up with the loli Dragon, caught Hela and the others with my TK and the turbolift's door opened. 

"Thanks, Great Mother!" The being which could eat planets affectionately holds onto me.
