Chapter 347: Hela Visits Asgard (III)...
[New York, Sanctum] (Earth Zeta 71)
"What is the status, Stark?" Strange asked while drawing some kind of runic formula on the floor.
"Scott and Hope said that it is possible but currently they have no way of navigating through the Quantum tunnel" Stark said while he floated inside the room, he was wearing a high-tech suit made up of nano-machines.
"Can't you make something?" Strange asked suddenly looking up towards Tony.
"Currently... I don't know, I would have to read through their research materials" Tony said with a thoughtful look on his face.
"Dr Strange, you said that it would be possible to travel to that dimension through your Mirror Dimension, right?" Agent Natasha Romanoff aka The Black Widow asked Strange in a neutral tone, she was sent here by Nick Fury to help them with whatever they needed. They needed to get back those Stones.
"Yes, that is what I wanted to do... and travelling through the mirror dimension would have been easier but someone is actively sabotaging my anchoring runes from the other side" Strange with a deep frown on his face...
"Who could possibly do that, Strange? I thought you were the best" a woman dressed in a red and blue suit asked Strange with a laid back expression on her face. The woman had short blond hair on top of her head. The woman's name was Carol Danvers... aka Captain Marvel.
"I might be the best in this world but there could be someone else better than me in their dimension" Strange said with a frown on his face. "And anyone with above-average sorcery knowledge could destroy my anchoring runes" Strange said blandly.
"It could be the Sorcerer Supreme of that dimension... didn't Charles's group say that she was on good terms with this Leviathan guy" a tall man said nonchalantly, he had had a beer in his hands. The man was known as Star Lord throughout their Star System, his real name was Peter Quill.
"Shut up!! I am about to power up these runes..." Strange said everyone stopped speaking, the runes flared up and started to glow brightly... for a few seconds, the runic circle kept pulsing strangely... anyone could tell that the runes were trying to stabilize...
After a minute, the runic circle finally started to rotate and a smile appeared on Strange's face. "What, did it work?" Stark asked in an excited tone and Strange nodded his head.
"So... we can go into this dimension now?" Carol asked and got up from her seat.
"No... we would need 6 more runes like this... but I want some information before doing that..." Strange said and started to draw runes in the air... the runes kept floating in front of Strange and after a few seconds a smile appeared on his face.
"The Time Stream in their world is very slow when compared to ours... in our world, two months have passed since Nimrod came back... but in that world only two days have passed since then" Strange said and grinned.
"That means that we could prepare ourselves better before going into their dimension..." all of a sudden a furry raccoon dressed in a spacesuit exclaimed loudly. The raccoon's name was Rocket.
"Yes... I should inform Director Fury about this development" Natasha Romanoff commented off-handedly.
"By the way, didn't you say that the Sorcerer Supreme of their dimension was destroying your anchors?" Carol asked with a frown.
"Yes, but I connected this anchor to a very different location..." Strange said cryptically and everyone became curious after that.
"Where?" Stark asked with a small frown.
"The Moon" Strange said with a smug look on his face and everyone nodded their heads in appreciation. "I am going to meet Charles, I will need his help to pinpoint the locations of the other anchors" Strange said and a sparkling golden portal formed in front of him...
[POV Reo]
"So, what are you going to do with the hammer?" I asked Hela curiously.
"Dunno... I simply wanted it so I took it" Hela said with a shrug and threw Thor's hammer into her shadow... for a moment Hela's shadow rippled and the hammer disappeared.
"What was that??" I asked pointing towards her shadow.
"A simple storage space... it isn't that big though... I could only store a few things in there" Hela said with a smile and grabbed some popcorn. "I simply can't stop myself from loving this thing" Hela said in awe.
"Popcorn does that to you..." I said in a sagely tone while nodding my head. We finally walked out of the city and I cancelled the disillusionment charm I have placed on both of us.
After leaving the Throne Room, Hela said that she needed to visit her father and some other location... and according to Zelia and Death, Odin wasn't inside the palace... Hela said that she doesn't want to attract any more attention because she no longer cared about Asgard... so I used the disillusionment charm on us to hide us.
Yes, strong people would have been able to see through our illusion but most of them were busy with the Throne Room incident. When I finally deactivated the disillusionment charm, Hela started to look around and her eyes were glowing eerily.
"Zelia!" Hela growled out and within a couple of seconds, Zelia appeared out of thin air...
"My Lady, I saw you going out of the city so I decided to wait for you here" Zelia said and bowed her head. Wow... she is acting like a dutiful maid...
"Enough of that... lead me to Odin" Hela rolled her eyes when Zelia bowed her head once again. She nodded her head, and she started to float up in the sky... "I can't fly" Hela deadpanned.
"Don't worry... I will carry you" I said while floating and I extended my hand towards Hela, she grabbed my hand tightly and I started to follow Zelia while carrying Hela, it wasn't that hard for me... after some time we arrived in a complete wasteland.
Zelia pulled out an odd-looking key from her robes and an ethereal door with several chains flared up into existence... Zelia quickly unlocked the door and the prison disappeared leaving behind a weak Odin, chained up in ethereal chains.
Surprisingly... I didn't feel any kind of power coming from Odin... "Why is he like that?" I asked Zelia who looked towards me with a stoic expression on her face but her only eye was filled with fear.
"I made the faux body absorb all of his powers... I didn't want Odin to have access to his powers" Zelia answered my question in a somewhat shaky tone... I wonder why is she so scared of me... previously, she had completely ignored me.
"Good idea, Zelia. We can't have him running away now, can we?" Hela said and kneeled down beside her father. "Hello, father. How have you been?" Hela asked Odin with a smile on her face? While Hela was chatting with her father, my eyes were on Zelia.
"Why are you so afraid of me Zelia?" I asked Zelia who shuddered after hearing my question.
"...I have finally recognized you from Odin's memories... you are one of the Cosmic Entities that has been residing on Midgard..." Zelia said and I simply nodded my head and didn't say anything more to her.
"Hela..." Odin breathed out with quite some difficulty and his voice was really raspy. "How did you get free?" Odin said slowly.
Hela didn't answer him and looked towards Zelia. "The fucker is going to die... he looks so weak" Hela said but Zelia simply shook her head.
"No my lady, I am continuously giving him my own energy so that he won't die..." Zelia said with a small smirk on her face... Hela simply nodded her head and a green circle formed in her hands and after that Hela also nodded her head.
"You are right... he won't die... keep treating him like this" Hela said with quite some venom in her voice. "Well, father, looks like you aren't that happy to see me... I will visit you after some time... maybe then you will appreciate my visit..." Hela trailed off and stood up.
Hela signalled Zelia, who nodded her head and locked away Odin once again. "You can leave Zelia... oh... you won't mind me visiting Odin's vault do you?" Hela asked and Zelia frantically shook her head.
"No, my lady, everything is yours... you don't need to ask me" Zelia said and flew away... Hela kept watching Zelia's retreating form and burst out laughing.
"I can't believe that she had grown up so much... well, good for her" Hela said with a melancholic look on her face.
"You sure that you don't want to rule Asgard? She is giving Asgard to you on a silver platter..." I asked Hela and she shook her head with a smile on her face.
"No... I really wanted to rule Asgard but to be honest... I have lost that passion... after Death told me that Ragnarok is going to happen no matter what... so I decided that it would be better to give up on Asgard and I believe that ruling Asgard would be quite boring" Hela said with a small smile on her face and extended her hand towards me.
I took her hand the next moment I found myself in some kind of treasury... I felt really odd after being turned into smoke by Hela... "That felt really bad..." I choked.
"Ah... don't be such a baby... you are a Cosmic Entity..." Hela rolled her eyes and approached a giant wolf laying on the ground... the wolf wasn't moving and it was pretty clear that it was long dead. It must be Fenris...
Hela placed her hands on the wolf's fur and started to caress its fur with a gentle look on her face. "I am sorry, girl... I should have been there... I am sorry, forgive me Fenris" Hela said while caressing the wolf... her eyes were glittering with unshed tears...
Hela backed away from the giant wolf's body and greenish-black smoke started to ooze out of her hands... Hela screamed and slammed her hands on the deceased wolf's body... the wolf's body started to pulse with green light and only a few moments later... heartbeats could be heard from the wolf's body and it started to breathe.
Hela pulled back her hands and she released a huge sigh... the wolf's body stopped glowing and the wolf started to whimper painfully... the giant wolf snorted loudly and slowly pulled herself up from the ground... "Yes, girl that's it... you can do it" Hela said and the wolf mewled and finally got up on her feet.
The wolf turned around and started to lick Hela's face... "Fenris... I am so glad that you are back... I won't abandon you again" Hela said while caressing it's muzzle. Fenris's eyes finally landed on me and she started to growl aggressively.
"Down girl... he is a close friend... he is the one who freed me" Hela said admonishingly and Fenris stared at me intently and a friendly grin appeared on her face... if you can call it a smile... Fenris lunged towards me and started to lick my face...
"Stop... stop..." I protested but the giant wolf seemed to ignore my protests... after some time she finally stopped licking my face and started to nuzzle her head with my face... I reluctantly started to caress her.
"Reo, Fenris... It would be great if you two could back up a bit... I want to bring back my soldiers too..." Hela said loudly and both Febris and I backed away quite a bit... she is definitely a smart girl... Hela started to release huge amounts of greenish-black smoke... when the smoke finally covered the whole room... I glint appeared in Hela's eyes. "Arise..."
