Alliance Part 2

February 23, 2015

It's been a day since the Inhumans returned to reclaim their city and according to Crystalia's message from the night before, everything seems to have gone well.

The bad thing is that it seems that one of the people who helped Maximus had escaped and took a very important treasure for them.

I know she was referring to the Terrigen Mist.

Also, at one of the A.I.M. bases we found that but it wasn't useful to me and I returned it to them, but not before keeping a small amount for myself.

After all, I must know if my serum can protect my people from it.

She said it will take them three days to stabilize things in Attilan and then they will come visit us.

That didn't bother me, besides the Sentinels I lent them were already back.

Genosha Prison

I am in front of a special cell where Gamora is locked up.

"Looks like you're alright now" I said to her.

Gamora gives me a cold look and says:

"What do you want of me?" she asked.

She already knew, after all she is an expert and she knew that I wanted information, that's why I kept her alive.

"Just that you tell me the latest important news from outer space, as you can see, I'm a country bumpkin who still hasn't left my home planet" I answered while shrugging.

Gamora gives me a strange look and instead of answering, she asks me a bit doubtfully:

"Aren't you going to ask why I was sent and who sent me to your planet?"

"Are you going to tell me?" I replied.

She is quiet for a few seconds before saying:

"I'll tell you everything you want to know if you answer this question. What did you do with the Cosmic Cube?"

"I wanted to destroy it in the first place, but decided against it and kept it" I calmly answered her.

"It can be said that the power of that object consumed you, right?" Gamora said, letting out a snort full of disdain.

I just look at her in silence.

"People like you are the ones I hate the most, since they live obsessed with power" Gamora said again when she saw me in silence.

Shaking my head and with a small smile, I say:

"I really wanted to destroy it, but something went wrong and I no longer had the reason to do it"

"Don't justify yourself, you won't be able to deceive me" Gamora said, not wanting to listen to my explanation.

Seeing that I couldn't convince her with words, I decide to use actions.

"Est, come here" I said.

This confuses Gamora as there is no one with me.

But seconds later, under Gamora's shocked gaze, a figure appears next to me.

It's Est. The girl in just a few days was already mastering her powers and whenever I called her name, she always appeared by my side.

When we arrived, I did an examination of her body with the help of Maya and discovered something interesting.

She is now like a normal human and a part of my DNA circulates in her body.

"This girl is called Est, and before that she was known as the Cosmic Cube" I said to a surprised Gamora.

"Do you need me for something, father?" Est asked. This girl learned to call me that.

"Nothing little brat, I just wanted to see you" I answered with a smile.

The girl walks over and hugs my left hand with a smile on her face.

"Impossible!" Gamora said in a surprised voice.

"Now you understand why I couldn't destroy her, after all she is very cute and now part of my family" I told her with a smile as I gently stroked Est's head with my right hand.

I had found out by accident that since she created her current human form, I had no problem touching her with my 'Imagine Breaker', but still her powers were suppressed.

Gamora is speechless.

"So, now will you answer my questions, space lady?" I asked her.

"Gamora… call me Gamora and yes, I'll keep my end of the bargain" Gamora answered after calming down.

"Nice to meet you Gamora, my name is Alex Wayne" I introduced myself.

Now I finally will know a little about the current situation of the universe.

Gamora is a great assassin in the universe and has traveled to different places, so her knowledge is very varied.

And I'll also get to know a little bit about Thanos.
