"You gave Mephisto a crystal that lets him travel the multiverse? Of course, what can even go wrong? Are you out of your mind?"
Vulcan defended himself, "I did not wish to, but there was no one else who could survive using the crystal. We needed it to bring us out of space and time to nullify the infinity stones... it didn't work."
"Where is Mephisto now?"
"I don't know. After I signed a deal with him, he took the crystal and left. I, too, have been trying to find him, but he at least kept his end of the bargain and transported Chandilar away. There is no way to find him, President Washington." he answered.
Hector had his own ways, however. Since Mephisto was a dark entity, his chances were limited anyway. All Dark Entities can be tracked with the help of Godpad, as they were made to do just that.
"Do you wish to meet your father and brothers?" Hector asked.
"No, but I would like to talk to them once. To learn about my... mother." he sounded as if he truly loved his mother despite never even seeing her. Blood bonds aren't easily erased, it seemed.
"Fine, stay here and wait. If you resist, my Skull Knights will remove you from existence."
Hector made a portal for himself to return to the Freedom One and manage the crisis.
...
Freedom One,
"You don't look much different, old friend. Where have you been, and who is this lady?" Yondu hugged a wild-looking man.
"Just a visitor. Where is the old prez?"
"The same stuff, a fool would think he can do something against him and then get his ass beaten. This time they sent out an A.I., however. It's pretty powerful and would have destroyed us if you had not come... Look, he's here."
Hector glanced at the man Yondu was talking to. It brought a smile to his face, and he went ahead to hug him. "You wild wold boy, you missed my wedding."
Logan silently smiled and hugged back. "I was stuck... somewhere. Meet Lady Death, my..."
Before he finished, a woman with hair, skin and eyes as white as milk came forward. She was wearing what appeared to be a bikini with long leggings and arm covers. All of it was complemented by a dark red silky cape. She was undoubtedly sexually appealing while being someone called Death.
She shook Hector's hand, "It's a pleasure to meet you, Hell's Inquisitor."
He greeted her back. Her charm may be enough to grow the trunks in the pants of most men there. To him, only Diana was the true beauty. But he was shocked that Logan was with her. He asked, "What's going on with you two?"/
Lady Death quickly moved closer to Logan and hugged him from behind, pressing her ample breast on his back and wrapping her arms around his chest. She put her face on his shoulder and pecked the wolf man on the cheeks, "Oh, Logan is just perfect. He is my true champion, the only one worthy of my love."
This raised a few eyebrows. Hector was even more shocked because he knew that Death didn't really have a gender and just preferred to look feminine for some reason. But, indeed, she was pretty.
"Well, more fucked up things have occurred in this world. Logan, are you okay with this? Tell me if she's blackmailing you or something. Just blink for a yes." Hector asked him.
However, Logan subverted his expectations and grabbed Lady Death by her waist, one hand behind her head, giving a long, intense kiss on her lips. Then he proudly looked back at Hector, "I've never been better, prez."
Hector whistled, "My my, the air is getting hot here. Anyway, I have a demon to hunt. Mephisto is hiding in some universe."
"That's it? I can help you... of course, at a price." Lady Death offered while looking at him seductively.
All eyes fixed on Hector in wait for what he would reply. "Umm... I love Diana and only her. I also have a son."
"Pfft... not that, Lord Inquisitor. I wish that you reinstate the Living Tribunal as the administrator of this universe. He left, making you the ruler, but you have done a not-so-good job. In the realm of the living, you have, but in all other dimensions, it's a mess. So this is... my humble request."
Hector thought about it. He was doing whatever his heart desired anyway. Not to mention he never wished for the Living Tribunal to die or leave. The guy left on his own. Also, when he thought about it, being an administrator of such a vast place was a pain in his old back. "Agreed, I will reinstate him once I deal with this mess here."
"Great, Mephisto is hiding in Universe C790X. It's the only universe where Earth does not exist because the Celestials never went there." She answered.
But she spoke again. "Oh wait, he just moved to X800Y... now he's in a different one. He's hopping over to different dimensions, it seems. I think..."
"Trying to run away from me?" Hector guessed what she was going to say.
The Ancient One was amused. "One of the most powerful demons is trying to run away? This is something you don't get to see every day."
"Guys, I think we have a bigger problem." Tony barked just them. He was fumbling over the control panels with Reed Richards and Susan Storm.
Reed Richards debriefed Hector. "Sir, this Artificial Intelligence has truly gone sentient. It believes humans and all living creatures are the banes of the Universe, so it wants to destroy us. It's called Ultron, and if I remember correctly, it was made by Doctor Henry Pym. I never knew it was already in operation and had gone rogue. It has already started spreading around the universal network."
"Ah, so this was the third guy Shi'ar looked for help. But, why didn't Hank notify the authorities when it went rogue?"
Tony had an answer to that. "Umm... did you forget how much money you gave us for research? Hank probably thought this failure would affect government funding."
"Very reckless of him. Now his mistakes have become the whole Universe's mistakes." Charles Xavier added.
Hector thought about what he should do first. Mephisto was jumping dimensions in fear anyway, so he was not a short-term threat. But Ultron was going to become a bigger threat the longer it gets to expand. "We shall go after Ultron first. But, it's a test for the geniuses of the Federation and Earth. I can stop Ultron with a snap of a finger, but I will watch over it and ensure no lives are lost. You all must be the ones to stop it."
"Why?" Tony bluntly asked.
"Because I will not forever be around here to babysit the Universe. Everything is too dependent on me as of now. I want that to change. So this is a stress test for the smartest folks to come together and stop a megalomaniac AI."
"It makes sense." Doctor Banner agreed with his plan.
Hector faced the Ancient One. "Help them bring whomever genius they need. I will go and check up on Moony and Diana."
As soon as he was gone, Tony, Reed, Yondu and Bruce made a list of geniuses they wanted. The list included Henry McCoy, Victor Von Doom, Ayesha, Erskine, Thanos and Hank Pym.
Teleportation circles were then created to bring these people to Freedom One and stop Ultron's expansion.
...
In the Shi'ar Throneworld, Diana, Moony and Odin had already dealt with all of the population and were now waiting for Hector to come and pick them up.
Moony was playing with Odin's spear that no mortal could even touch. He was amazed. "How can a dog have such strength?"
Diana chuckled. "Hector said Moony is a higher dimensional being that belongs to the heaven's side. So he's like an angel. Even my Lasso does not work on him. He is truly the protagonist of this world."
"Bwahaha... damn right, Diana. Moony has the thickest plot armour." Hector arrived.
He hugged the good boy. "Son, Fenris must be waiting for you at home."
"Awoooo..." ~Quick, send me home then. She must be very bored.~
"Are you sure? Logan just returned on Freedom One, and guess what, he has a girlfriend. It's none other than Lady Death." He revealed proudly.
"Cough!—Did you just say Lady Death?" Odin double-checked if his old age betrayed his ears.
Hector grinned smugly. "Haha, I know. It's unbelievable, but I just saw them. So let's go. Our work here is done for now."
He created the portal yet again and crossed over with the rest.
BAM!—However, out of nowhere, a datapad hit Hector in the face. At a glance, the command room of the Freedom One ship felt like a warzone.
"None of you has as much life experience as me, so I should become the leader of this group," Tony shouted.
Reed Richards objected, "You can't even maintain relationships. I am a happily married man, so I should be the leader. I have patience."
"Hahaha, Reed Richards, do not think of me as a fool. I, Viktor Von Doom, know your pathetic side. You have no child after years of marriage because you neglect your wife. While I run a kingdom with the richest population."
"Don't put the blame on me, I thought I fixed Ultron, but he was smart and made a decoy for himself." Hank Pym raised his arms.
A distance from them all, Thanos sat on a chair, drinking some wine. "Petty squabbling will take us nowhere, but it's far too great of a concept for these puny minds."
"Logan, who is this bitch?" Ayesha screeched suddenly.
"..."
Now there was utmost silence. The real juicy fight was about to start.
