Chapter 237: Vacation in Hel
[You can read chapters in advance and GOT fic on /misterimmortal.]
Hector was at the end of his 2nd year of presidency. This meant Fury could run for president twice after he finished this one. But he needed to garner some support first. Luckily, Hector had already given him an idea and was in the middle of getting it done.
After all, it''s the little people who go out to vote. It''s the average American that''s important and should be important, not the interests of corporates. Since the government was free from all corporate lobbying and pulls, congress passed a bill with a full majority.
Yes, Hector had fucked the whole American political side because he didn''t belong to any party. Besides that, he had created his own third party, and most of the well-experienced politicians had left their sides and joined Hector''s.
So when the bill to increase the minimum wage in the country was proposed, it quickly got all the approvals and passed with ease and much media fanfare. Then Fury came on the first televised speech, which was being redirected from his YouTube channel.
"I understand that many of you are confused about me. Most of you don''t know me. Well, let''s just say I used to be the head of an international agency that has worked to keep an eye on everything alien and unexinable in this world. I was its director, and the agency is known publically at this pointSHIELD.
"I am d President Washington thought I was worthy of sitting in this position and working for this country I love immensely. I wish not to disappoint him, so I will not be changing his policies. Instead, I will be promoting them more and introducing more things.
"One of them is to increase the minimum wage so the quality of life in this nation can improve. I believe there should be nopany that pays so low that the workers can''t afford to pay rent and buy food in the nearby neighborhood.
"So yes, I increased the minimum wage to 13 dors per hour. Anypany paying less than this will be taken care of with a lovely fist of freedom. Take care."
Fury pressed the end stream button and looked at his secretary. "How did I do, Agent Hill?"
"You should grow a beard, I think. You will look more intimidating then." She advised.
"Hmm, you''re telling a ck dude with an eyepatch that he''s not intimidating? I feel I''m more intimidating than the old prez."
"Well, I don''t think he was trying to act intimidating. He justughs, is tall, muscr, has a long beard and the respect fro-"
"Fine-fine, stop with this, your wet dream talk. I will grow a beard. Now give me those new files."
...
Hel was a region of Niflheim that served as the home of the dead who were neither honored nor dishonored. It was not and for punishment but a resting ground for the dead.
And in this exact ce, Hector arrived with his little family. Their task was to find H and get her to at least be less destructive. Hector knew it was a pipe dream to think she could suddenly turn good.
"Fenris, can you smell her anywhere?" Hector asked.
The cherished she-wolf sniffed around her and tried to sense her old master. However, even after minutes, she felt nothing. "Wuv."
"It''s okay, don''t be disheartened. I''m sure she will be around. I will find her in no time." He patted the girl and used the infinity stones to look around.
"Hmm... she''s above us?" He muttered and looked up all of a sudden.
Diana was faster, however, and took her shield out of nowhere to block the imminent strike from the sky. It was some sort of dark ck pointy de. "She seems angry."
"Well, anybody would be after being locked for five thousand years. Let''s try to talk to her. Fenris, you should also try."
The she-wolf proudly and bravely barked toward the sky, letting out her feelings in the hope that H would hear her and maybe stop to listen to what they had to say.
Moony was the brave boy stopping the rain of those ck spears from hitting his girl. Hector didn''t help there as Moony needed to get some browny points this time.
"I am getting out of here now!"
Boom!Hnded on the ground, making a small crater. Her hair was open and disheveled; her face showed signs of madness. "You are not leaving this ce alive!"
"We''re here to take you out, H." Hector straight-up revealed his intention.
Now, this was like telling a lion that you came to it to get eaten. She was left stunned. "What do you mean? Odin didn''t send you to kill me?"
"Haha, why would he do that? No, I came here because this little wolf girl was missing someone." He pointed at Fenris.
Fenris quickly ran to H and sniffed her hand. H, too, seemed mentally stunned as her eyes widened at the scene. After all, she had cared for Fenris since she was a little cub. And seeing her with the cute headband created feelings in her heart she had long forgotten.
"Who resurrected you?" She asked.
Fenris pointed her nose at Hector. Then she started rubbing herself on H''s legs. "Wuwuw."
"She says she misses you. Anyway, do you want to get out of here? I can offer you a great deal. You get your freedom, and you get to live with Fenris. Start a new life and be happy." Hector offered her.
However, his words disgusted her, for she was the goddess of war. "I shall only sit when I kill Odin and take Asgard for myself."
"Well, that''s not going to happen. I know Odin is a bad father. He messed up another kid of his. But he''s not a bad man by heart. You wished to plunge the nine realms into war. He had to stop you. I believe it was not good to lock you away for five thousand years, but what has passed may nevere back. Besides, your species is immortal, so five thousand for you is life fifty years for humans. So take my offer ande with me."
"Suppose I doe with you. How will you ensure that I do not betray?" She asked him, trying to gauge his strength.
Hector smirked and punched the air. In an instant, a st of energy resonated, creating six colors of the infinity stones and the ck color of Knull powers.
"Who says I will allow you to remain this powerful outside? From now you''re going to be an average Asgardian with no powers. From this moment, you shall not have any divinity or affinity with death and war.
He shruggingly replied. "You will pose no threat to Asgard or any other world. So now the choice is yours, do you want to live the rest of your time here or somewhere else outside. If it was me, I''d choose thetter. There is so much great food to taste, stories to hear, and ces to see outside. Just enjoy the wonders of life."
H quickly tried to use her powers and attempt to attack him. However, nothing came out of her hands. No magic or ck spears. "What have you done?!"
"As I said, you are now powerless... the goddess of nothing, just a in Asgardian."
"I do not ept this."
"I''m not even asking. You''re stuck as a normal Asgardian whether you decide to live here or outside. The choice is yours. Come, Moony and Fenris, let''s tour Hel while she''s thinking."
Dumbly staring, she saw as they left one after the other. Whoes to Hel to sightsee?
But now alone, she tried her best to summon her powers again. They used to work ording to her will before, but now she felt utterly powerless... weak. It disgusted her, but there was nothing she could do.
Not only that, she felt a change in her mind. She could not feel the same lust for blood and battle anymore.
The horror dawned on her mind then. "He has truly taken away everything that made me H."
...
Now, Hel was not a in itself. But instead, it was just a region in the realm of Niffleheim. It held various ces of interest and served as one of the many realms of death across the cosmos. There were ces like Elysium and Valha here, the ces that interested Hector.
So they first went to Valha, the ce where heroes and honored dead went.
The gates to this special region opened for him with a twist of his hand. Then the scenes inside left all four mesmerized as a somewhat festive atmosphere spread around. Thendscape was full of greenery, and the buildings seemed simr to old medieval viges.
There was music simr to those one heard in the Viking movies. There were men and women drinking andughing merrily. Some were even sparring with each other.
Diana was amazed by the ce. "This is fascinating."
"It''s boring. But I need a drink, let''s see what Viking heaven''s ale tastes like. There,d, bring me some ale." Hector ordered one man.
But the Viking turned around angrily and took out his battleax. "Eivor of the Raven n heeds no orders. But fight me and win, I shall offer you ale as a friend."
"Bwahaha... Let''s do it then, vor of Raven." Hector folded his sleeves and prepared to fight. "I''m going to enjoy this vacation."
