With Soren on Earth with us, all I had to do was find Talos, and try to convince him not to be a bitch, which was easy enough thanks to my satellite, and my knowledge of his actions in the movie. I mean, the guy had replaced the director of SHIELD by now, which made my search way easier and shorter. Anywho, once I had his location, I teleported to him with Soren, and slapped him for lying to me.

With the bitch slap out of the way, I proceeded to offer him a deal of sorts. He would start being honest, and I would help him fight the Kree.

With Soren on his arms, he accepted, albeit he was a bit reluctant to do so.

"How can I know you won't hurt my people?" Talos asked, his eyes on me.

"You can't. But know this, if you plan on invading Earth, well… you will face terrible consequences, so don't lie… again." I smiled, sending him a very clear message, try something out of our agreement, and the Kree will be the least of your problems.

"I apologize for breaking your trust, but I would do it again, if it means helping my people." Talos replied, holding Soren tight. 

"I can respect that, but know I would do the same. I am helping you out of my human decency, but if I have to pick… Well, you know the answer." I winked, opening a portal to Maria's house.

"I know." Talos nodded, walking into the portal without hesitation, alongside Soren.

On the other side of the portal, Captain Marvel greeted the two Skrulls with a rather awkward smile. "Greetings, Talos."

"Vers." Talos replied in an understandably dry tone.

"I go by Carol now." Carol replied, scratching the back of her head. "It's a long story." she added, seeing the look Talos was giving her.

"Ok." I clapped my hands, getting everyone's attention. "We all hate each other, and that's cool, but we have a Kree invasion to stop. So, ideas on the table."

"Yon-Rogg is probably tracking me as we speak." Carol said as she took a seat.

"We all hate each other? Bitch, I gave you a starbucks gift card." Fury said, narrowing his eyes on me. 

"Fury, head on the game please." I chuckled.

"Next birthday, you are getting a pair of socks." Fury mumbled.

"The Kree have an army capable of leveling planets, what does earth have?" Talos asked.

"I… hmm, I…. we have him?" Fury pointed at me.

"They have me." I nodded. "And Bucky over there." I pointed at Bucky, noticing the hello kitty sticker on his arm. "Haha, that's adorable." I chuckled looking at the sticker.

"You have one on your back." Bucky smirked, tossing me a mirror he had beside him.

"Hmm, when did she do this?" I muttered, looking at the sticker on my back that said, I am a lovely kitten purr.

"Look, adorable or not we have to focus on the task at hand." Maria sighed, rolling her eyes. "I do not want to die so young. Especially not to space Hitlers."

"Hitler?" Talos inquired.

"It's a long story, we don't have the time, but know this, it is an insult." I explained.

"The only way to stop the Kree is by stopping the supreme intelligence." Carol said.

"Well, you can do that." I said.

"Not really, before the supreme intelligence, I have no powers…" Carol sighed.

"What part about they brainwashed your ass is still not clear." I sighed.

"I already know that." Carol shot back, sending me a glare. "But that doesn't change a thing, my powers come from the supreme intelligence, the moment they confirm I am a traitor, my powers are gone."

"Then use that old and rusty brain of yours. If they had the power to grant others the power you have, the Kree would be unstoppable." I replied. "They didn't give you the power you wield. They suppressed it."

Carol looked at me, as if trying to catch a lie, when all of the sudden she growled. "They never gave me anything, they only took from me…. Those bastards!" 

"That chip on your neck?" I pointed to her chip. "It's a regulator, it basically limits the power you can use, without that. You alone could fuck the entire Kree empire."

"She could… what now?" Talos inquired in clear shock.

"She was powered by one of the strongest artifacts in the universe. Her power level is to be expected." I wanted to say over nine thousand, but it felt cheap.

"Do you know how to remove the chip then?" Carol asked.

"No." I shook my head. "I know you can fry it though, by letting your power flow free, but how can you do that? No idea." 

"Let my power flow free…" Carol sighed. "All my life I have been teached to control it, to reign it in… and to top it all, the chip has always been there… I don't think I know how to let it go." oh no, frozen flashbacks.

"Are you okay?" Fury asked, looking at me.

"Yes." I nodded.

"For a moment there you looked like you were about to have a stroke." Fury commented.

"I'm fine." I reassured him.

"Ok, this is the plan… you." I pointed at Captain Marvel. "You try to fry that chip. Bucky, Fury, the Skrull and I, will buy you some time, and you." I pointed at Maria. "You know her better than anyone here, so find a way to help her."

"I can't let you guys fight my fight alone." Carol shook her head.

"Fine." Well if she wanted to do this the canon way, I would be happy to oblige. "Then, we all go and fight together." I kinda felt Captain America right now.

"Sounds good to me." Bucky nodded, cocking his gun.

"I suppose dying in a star wars remake it's as good as any other death." Fury sighed, putting on his sunglasses.

"I am not going." Maria declared, fucking the moment.
