Chapter 167: 167. Steve's Promise
Alexander took out his 1930 Duesenberg Model J Skiff from the museum as he liked it a lot. Then he headed to the apartment building where Steve lived. It was a rundown building from old times. He only lived there for the memories.
So Alexander had bought it and renovated it to look exactly as it did back then. He also gave a salary raise to Steve. Fury wasn't really paying him well.
Alexander was secretly/Officially the Chairman of SHIELD. Fury was still the director in front of the public. The trial of the council members and Ronan was also going to be held soon.
...
Outside Steve's apartment.
"Where are we going, sir?" Steve asked.
"Get in the car, son. I'm going to fulfill your dance promise." Alexander stated and made some extra engine noise.
Steve just jumped in and they zoomed through the road. He took him to the hospital where Peggy was living her days off.
He entered her room, "Hello, Peggy."
She had seen the events on television and couldn't be happier about it. She considered herself lucky that she was one of those few who got to work under Alexander. But to be honest she was missing her past days. When she was active on the field and beating bad guys.
She smiled at Alexander and tried to get up. "Uncle, It's so good to see you again."
Alexander quickly walked to her and helped her get up. She had grown really old.
Peggy chuckled, "You're older than me, and yet I am the one in bed."
"Haha, I am older than most of the people, child. How are you? How's Steve been treating you?" He asked.
She looked at Steve warmly, "He comes to see me every day. I can't ask for more. I'm giving him classes on how to be bold and hit on girls."
Steve quickly spoke, "Not gonna happen, Peggy. I only have one girl in my heart."
"Oh, you've gotten bold, Steve. Tell me, Peggy. Would you like to join Shield again? You two can be a spy couple. It'll be a fun experience for you two." Alexander suggested.
"No matter how much I want, you can't ignore that I have a dying body." She sadly replied.
"Then let's make you young again." He fiddled in his suit's pocket and finally took out a small vial.
"Ah, here you go. Drink this, Peggy. It's a de-aging potion." He handed it to her.
Her hands shivered taking it. She looked at Steve who nodded at her.
"Just drink it, child. It's a tested product of mine. Howard has drunk it too. Oh, you don't know. Howard is alive. I had saved him and his wife back then. Drink up, now." He urged her.
She finally drank the potion. Soon many changes started to happen to her. First, her hair turned back to black. Her skin started to become smoother and finally, her earlier charm returned to her face.
She moved a little and felt no trouble moving. Although she had no diseases, her body was still old and ached here and there.
Alexander quickly materialized a mirror in front of her. "Look, just like before."
She was shocked by the magic but she had seen many weird things in her life and what surprised her the most was her face. She looked just like when she lost Steve.
She slowly got out of the bed and stood up to check herself.
~This is amazing. I feel so good.~ she thought.
"Peggy, are you okay?" Steve worriedly asked.
Peggy looked at him. Their eyes met for a second. Then she dashed to him and Steve opened his arms to grab her in a tight hug.
"I missed you so much, Steve." She said with her head resting on his chest.
"Me too, Peggy." Steve closed his eyes and enjoyed the warmth.
"Ehem... Should I go out?" Alexander asked.
Peggy quickly released Steve and looked at Alexander embarrassingly.
He loudly laughed, "Haha... What you blushing at. Come here and give the old man a hug you two."
Both Steve and Peggy went ahead and hugged him.
"Ah, I nearly forgot. I am organizing a party at Universe Tower for its opening. There's going to be a romantic dance segment too. Be sure to come." He announced.
Steve and Peggy understood his meaning and agreed to come.
Alexander then left the two to have some privacy. He got back into his car and drove off for Institute for gifted children. He was going to pick Wanda. She had grown up and was experiencing accidental magic outbursts. Max(Magneto) was a loving father and was worried about her. Which is why he asked Alexander for help.
...
Hala, Ex-Kree Homeworld.
Hela had done a great job of smoothly taking over the Kree Empire. She had learned a lot of things from her grandpa that helped her. She also took pride in being Alexander's child. Who wouldn't, after all, Alexander was already the ruler of two of the biggest empires in space.
Everything was going smoothly, she was organizing the new administration with the help of some respected Seraphs.
But her peace was broken when someone came to her demanding an answer to why the Kree Empire was taken over.
Hela and that person were in a stand-off in the air.
"Who are you?" Hela asked.
"I am Carol Danvers, also called Captain Marvel. Who are you and why have you attacked the Kree Empire?" She demanded an answer.
"I am Hela Maxim Universe and I will only answer after beating some manners into you." Hela angrily replied. She didn't like the tone of this woman.
"Then have it your way." Captain Marvel attacked. She was yet to find someone who could defeat her in raw power which had made her too arrogant. But she was wrong picking a fight with Hela.
Hela had been learning magic and fighting from Alexander. She had high talent in both of them and her strength exponentially grew.
*Boom*
Hela blocked the punch. "Weak"
She kicked Captain Marvel in the stomach, throwing her far away. She then teleported just above Captain Marvel and smashed her sword on her.
Captain Marvel had never found herself in a situation like this. Her strength wasn't enough.
"What are you?" She questioned.
"Huh, I am Hela, Goddess of War and Strength. Granddaughter of Emperor Alexander Maxim Universe." Hela loudly proclaimed.
Carol confusedly looked at her, "Wait, you are related to 'THE' Emperor Universe?"
Hela put down her sword, "Don't tell me you're his fan."
"I absolutely am. He is my role model. He has made so many good changes across space. Wait, why did he attack the Kree Empire?" She mumbled.
*Sigh* Hela had become numb to all the fans of her Grandpa now. She had seen so many people like that.
"We didn't attack. It was them. Ronan the Accuser launched an attack on Earth with warlord pest Thanos." Hela informed. She had developed a disgust for Thanos since her Grandpa had told her that the purple man was after her and Lady death's love.
"WHAT? EARTH? IS EVERYTHING OKAY THERE?" Carol anxiously asked.
"Yes, it is. Emperor Universe himself saved it. No lives were lost. We retaliated against the Kree Empire and now took over it. They were bad to begin with. So much racism is still active among them."
Carol took a breath of relief. "Thank you for informing me. I'll be leaving now."
She didn't even wait for an answer and headed to Earth. She wanted to check everything on her own.
...
On Earth, Alexander drove towards the Xavier Castle. While on his way, he came across a girl standing in the middle of the road in Times square. She continuously looked at big food advertisements as she drooled.
She had been standing there and had blocked the traffic. No matter how many people honked at her, she stayed in trance.
Alexander checked her for any problems and sure enough, she was not a human. Her biology was different.
"Hey there. You are blocking the road, child." He shook her.
After a while, she slowly came out of the trance.
"Wa...wahh...what happened?" She looked around her.
"You were standing here for a while. What happened?" He asked.
"Oh no... I did it again." She reprimanded herself.
"What's your name, girl?" He warmly asked.
She suddenly realized someone was talking to her, "I am Gali. Wait, you're that man from T.V."
Her name cleared Alexander's doubts, "Is your father's name Galactus?"
Gali looked shocked, "Woah, how do you know papa?"
Alexander chuckled at her cute expression. She looked no older than 13 or 14 years old and had long black hair and black eyes, "Haha, I am a friend of him. He asked me to take care of you. He told me that your hunger will become uncontrollable slowly. Come with me if you want to eat an elephant-sized burger."
~It seems Rina will have a competition now.~ he thought.
Gali's eyes had stars at the mention of food and followed Alexander. He first went somewhere far in the car and then took her to Phixheim and made a burger for her first.
"But this is a regular-sized burger, old man." She complained.
"Patience, my child." He said and took the burger and her out to the garden.
He took out the big light of Doraemon and enlarged it to the size of a mammoth.
"Bon appetite."
Gali didn't wait and jumped on the Burger and started to eat.
Rina came out and looked at the huge burger and the weird girl. "Grandpa, who's she?"
He ruffled her hair, "That is our guest and will be living here for a while. She has a very big appetite."
Rina looked at the huge tasty burger enviously, "I want a burger too"
