Chapter 26

Damian and Carol flew to the laboratory again, when they arrived fortunately everything remained the same, the Kree were still imprisoned, Monica was playing with the Skrull, Fury and Maria were talking about whether she would join SHIELD.

When they saw that they arrived quickly they approached them.

Fury was grabbing his eye, destiny is something curious, it seems that Fury will be a cycle after all.

'' What happened to your eye? Carol asked bewildered.

'' It's nothing, I just roughed the cat '' Fury said.

The Skrull just looked at him by shaking his head, a rag of Flerken is something serious.

'' Talos, I will go with you, I will look for a new home '' said Carol leaving aside the cat's scratch.

'' Are you sure? '' Talos said with hesitation, he couldn't help looking at Damian, he knew he was his partner and didn't want to bother someone so powerful.

'' Yes, it will be some years and we will also look for another Skrull, Besides, I have unfinished business with the Kree'' said Carol seriously.

'' Aunt Carol, you just returned and left again '' Mónica said, a little sad.

'' Honey, Aunt Carol has things to do, I'm sure she will soon come back, ''Maria said.

'' Monica, I promise you that I will come to your next graduation,'' Carol said, trying to cheer her up.

'' How about talking alone for a moment?'' Maria said.

"Well," Carol said, they really had to catch up.

After walking together to another room they sat each other in front of each other.

''How have you been doing these five years, did Damian take good care of the two of you?'' Carol asked casually.

''Well Carol, the truth is that Damian and I have been living together while you were gone'' Maria said looking at her feigning sadness.

''Forgive me I couldn't help it'' Maria said, almost holding in her laughter.

Carol couldn't help but look at her speechless before looking at Maria with a smile and making sparks in her hands.

Maria couldn't help but look at her cautiously before running off.

''Don't run, I promise it will only be very painful'' Carol said before running after Maria with a smile.

Carol and Maria played for a while before Carol caught her.

''I am glad that nothing has changed among us, I was a little worried,'' said Carol lying on the floor looking at the ceiling.

'' Yes, I'm glad you came back, before, in addition to my parents and my daughter you were my only family,'' Maria said, she really missed Carol.

'' Sorry to go as soon,'' said Carol.

''It's okay, I know you want to help them, if Damian can stand to let you go seeing you warm his bed with those udders, why did they grow on you if they just kidnapped you,'' Maria said as she looked at her with annoyance.

'' You're just jealous, poor Monica, she couldn't eat with abundance, '' Carol said, mocking back.

'' Take care out there '' Maria said seriously instead of answering her.

'' Yes, I will make sure to come back soon, '' Carol said, smiling at her.

''Then let's go, your husband is still waiting for you to say goodbye'' Maria said.

'''Oh but he already gave me the goodbye'' Carol said with a lustful smile.

'' You really became a perverted Carol '' Maria said without words.

'' You really need someone, don't they go through 11 years of drought? '' Carol said laughing.

''That's not your problem,'' Maria said, annoyed.

"Hahaha come on, don't be mad, surely you're using those kinds of toys," Carol said mockingly.

''Fuck you, do you want me to tell Damian that you gave me one for my birthday?'' Maria said.

''It's okay I didn't say anything'' Carol said, she didn't want to endure Damian's teasing if he knew that.

''I guess we should go back, let's not keep the others waiting'' Maria said.

''I guess so, come on,'' Carol said as she got up and helped Maria.

Soon Carol and Maria returned to where everyone was waiting for them.

''Well then we should go, the faster Carol leaves the faster she'll come back'' Damian said.

''I guess so,'' Carol said, a little discouraged about leaving Damian.

Carol walked over to Fury and gave him a comlink as well as telling him it was for emergencies only.

She gave Maria a big hug and told her that she would be back soon.

She finally kissed Monica and gave her a big hug before turning to Damian.

''Get on the ship, I'm coming'' Damian said.

Fury, Maria, and Monica got on the ship and began to prepare everything for the return to land, although they weren't so worried since Damian was with them.

"I'm going to miss you a lot," Carol said, hugging him tightly.

"Me too," Damian said with a sigh.

''But don't worry, I have my plans and if all goes well we can see each other very often with the help of the Tesseract,'' said Damian.

''Can you do that? How?'' Carol asked puzzled.

''The Tesseract is just a shell of something bigger, the space stone, but it's a long story so it will be for the next one'' Damian said, smiling at her.

''Always keeping things from you'' Carol said as she looked at him accusingly in a flirtatious manner.

''I promise when you come back I'll tell you what you want'' Damian said laughing.

''See ya'' Carol said before kissing him deeply.

''I'm going to miss you,'' Damian said after the kiss.

After a loving farewell, Damian boarded the ship.

"Are you finally done?" Maria said mockingly.

''Yes, ma'am,'' Damian said mockingly.

''Well then let's go,'' Maria said as she started the engines and took off.

''By the way Fury, I don't care what you share with your organization or whatever but make sure you watch what you say, greed is a pretty scary thing'' Damian said as he casually leaned back in his seat.

In his hands were not only 2 alien warships but there was also the Tesseract he planned to give to Fury when he became the director of SHIELD not to mention the absurd power he demonstrated, there is never a shortage of arrogant superiors who truly believe that just because they are politicians or important senators no one will mess with them.

A prime example is Pierce who is one of the leaders of SHIELD. He really wanted to demand the Tesseract from Iron Man and Thor. How laughable.

''Is it a threat?'' Fury asked seriously and the atmosphere became a bit tense.

''Of course, I'm not threatening you, you're Carol's friend, I'm threatening SHIELD, if they try anything funny they'll have to find new personnel for their leaders'' Damian said plainly.

''I understand'' Fury said reluctantly, he knew that greed could lead SHIELD to attack Damian and he knew they didn't stand a chance.

''Take my number, if you are in danger of death you can ask me for help, thanks to Carol'' Damian said as he handed him a card with his number.

''Wow, I have the king of the underworld's number, I guess even the president doesn't have it,'' Fury said joking

Damian just rolled his eyes before looking at Monica.

''Did you like the trip?'' Damian asked Monica with a smile.

''Yes, I want to grow up quickly to travel through space like Aunt Carol,'' Monica said.

"Don't you want to be with your father anymore? You're going to abandon him," Damian said jokingly.

''Hm, how about when I'm 30?'' Monica proposed seriously since she didn't want to leave her father either.

''I guess 30 years is fine,'' Damian said with a laugh.

They soon arrived at Maria's house and everyone got off the ship before Fury decided to leave, he had to report back and report what happened.

As far as he knew Fury would become director of SHIELD in a year or two, then he would probably contact him and give the Tesseract.

'' Girls, how about we eat at my house better?'' Damian proposed as he caressed Sassy who approached them as soon as they got off the ship.

"Sure, the food in your house is very delicious," said Maria, according to his proposal, she didn't have to cook there.

"Come on," Monica said.

"Then let's go," Damian said before enveloping everyone with his gravity and leading them to his house.

When the 3 people and the tiger landed they were greeted by two vampires.

''How did it go?'' Sophia asked with a smile.

"Space was great grandma, you should have seen Aunt Carol, she destroyed many ships," Monica said excitedly.

''Well, maybe I got a job,'' Maria said.

They all entered the house and gathered in the living room.

''Too bad Carol is leaving again,'' Sophia said, she still hadn't been able to interact too much with Carol, just breakfast.

"Hm," Ana said unexpectedly.

''Don't worry, I'm sure she'll be back soon,'' Damian said as he took out the Tesseract and began to look at it.

''What is that?'' Monica asked.

Everyone else also looked at it curiously, it was a glowing blue cube after all.

''This is called a Tesseract, and you could say it's one of the most valuable things in the universe,'' Damian said without going into too much detail.

''Why is it so valuable?'' Sophia asked seriously.

''There are only 6 objects like this, this one, in particular, has unlimited energy, if it were known that I have it, it is not incorrect to say that most civilizations in the universe would want to try to snatch it'' Damian said, smiling slightly at them.

Everyone was shocked at his words, it's really scary to think of that kind of scenario.

''Then put it away and stop playing with it'' Sophia said with a frown.

''Don't worry, on this planet they don't even know what it is,'' Damian said.

''Let me see it,'' Monica said as she reached over to take it.

''Sorry honey, you can't touch it, if a normal human touches it they will die'' Damian said, pushing the cube away from Monica's hand.

''Are you serious?'' Maria asked.

''Yeah, well have fun girls I'll go play with the Tesseract'' Damian said before getting up and flying away.

''Well, how about we have lunch?'' Sophia proposed with a smile.

Damian flew into space in the area he left the ships before switching on the communicator with the Kree ships.

''Come out of stealth mode, I'm coming your way,'' Damian said over the comlink.

"Understood," a voice replied.

Damian flew towards one of the ships that revealed itself and entered through the force field that protects from the void.

When Damian entered the spaceship he saw several Kree waiting for him.

''Who is the highest-ranking person on the two ships?'' Damian asked.

''I am sir'' I speak a blue Kree.

''Name?'' Damian asked.

''Las-At my lord,'' the Kree replied.

''I'll tell you Lasat, well, I have some tasks for you,'' Damian said.

"Please tell us, my lord, we will do everything possible to fulfill it," Lasat replied.

''I want you to create storage units for Tesseract energy,'' Damian said as he took out the Tesseract.

"Please follow me, we have to analyze the Tesseract," Lasat said as he gestured for her to follow him.

Damian followed Lasat to what appeared to be a laboratory, Lasat quickly gave instructions to the scientists and they began to analyze the Tesseract, after 30 minutes there were results.

''We can create storage units, we just need some materials that we can find in C-53'' Said a Kree scientist.

''Well, prepare ships to gather materials in a nation called Madripoor, remember to be discreet, I will go with you'' Damian said to Lasat.

He nodded and walked away to speak into his comlink.

''I also want to know if some kind of pulse or signal will be sent if I use the Tesseract,'' Damian said.

''If some kind of signal were sent but very few beings will be able to detect it'' Said a scientist.

"Okay, set up a chamber where I can use the Tesseract without being detected," Damian said.

''Yes sir'' replied the scientist.

''Everything ready Lasat?'' Damian asked as he saw Lasat approaching.

''Yes sir, the ships are ready to please follow me'' Lasat said.

Damian joined Lasat and several Kree soldiers in a medium-sized ship that could be used to carry things.

Soon the ship took off and quickly reached Madripoor, luckily it was night so there was no need to be so careful.

As they were landing Damian called Ophelia and told her to meet him at his location.

Even though Madripoor had only one big city, the territory of the archipelago could still accommodate 10 cities of that big size so they landed in an isolated place and waited.
