Loki cursed, "You fools, do you know who this woman is?"
"We do, but justice is equal for all. Your own constitution says it." The voice stopped, and the ship started moving away as they had Jean.
Loki was thrown onto the rooftop. Veins popped on his forehead in anger. "How did they take Jean? They could neutralise her Phoenix Powers somehow. I should inform father and the old man."
He quickly teleported back to Asgard, reached Odin's throneroom, and knelt down. "Father, I need your help. Jean Grey has been taken by the Shi'ar. We... We romantically like each other, and I can't let anything happen to her. So just this once... please allow me to lead the armies to save her."
Odin slammed his spear to the floor, and his armor appeared. "Son, I will go with you myself."
...
Hector was back in his office working on the list of beings who could be behind this whole mess. He had made a big list of names and was now in the process of visiting each being and asking them if they were the ones who messed up.
"Okay, time to go to the next one. Hmm, it's Mephisto? Haha, just a demon." he chuckled and was about to snap his finger. But the door slammed open, and Yondu ran in. "Boss, I need some help. There has been a virus outbreak in Andromeda. It has spread to multiple planets and has destroyed crops. We must do something, or planets will be destroyed in civil wars."
Hector snapped the finger and shrugged, "There, fixed it. Don't worry about the food anymore. I had instructed the East Xandar Trading Company to buy uninhabited planets across space and terraform them to turn them into AI farms. We have enough food to get by. This is why I made the storage."
BAM!
This time Loki ran into his office, his breath gone heavy. "Sir, J-Jean..."
"Ah, how did your date go? Diana told me about it. Jean took the Lasso of Truth. I hope you didn't lie and got beaten up and came here to complain." Hector joked.
"NO! Jean has been taken by the Shi'ar empire. They were speaking some nonsense about Phoenix Force and its crimes. They will execute her."
BOOM!—the table under Hector's arms shattered like glass. His face forgot all the smiles, and rage appeared. "How did they take her? Phoenix Force is too powerful." free(w)ebnovel(.)com
"I don't know, I informed my father as well, and he talked about some sort of crystal. He is mobilizing the Asgardian forces as we speak." Loki revealed, omitting the minor detail, that he was the one who nearly pleaded with Odin to save Jean. But the truth was that Odin was treaty-bound to help, and he would have helped his son anyway.
Yondu didn't wait and spoke into the Universal communicator, "Fleet Freedom, Phong, Kul, Sovereign, and all Ravagers report outside Shi'ar territory. They have waged war on us."
Hector gave him a node and created a few portals beside himself. Immediately the Avengers, X-Men, Ancient One, and Fantastic Four walked out, all locked and loaded.
"So I finally get to see space civilizations? Good thing I got my nano suit completed before this." Tony voiced.
"We can't allow them to hurt the Phoenix Force. It's vital for the Universe." Ancient One added.
"HULK HELP!" the big green guy shouted. He had been domesticated by Jean, after all. She was his big sis.
Diana and Moony appeared the most worried, however. For Moony, she was his cherished student, and for Diana, a daughter-like person.
"We should hurry. If they could nullify her powers, then who knows what they are doing to her." Diana rushed him.
"Don't worry. Using the stones, I have summoned an indestructible crystal around her body. I will also teleport all our fleets around the Shi'ar Throneworld, Chandilar, with a snap. Follow me now." Hector sternly ordered and walked into a portal leading to Hector's main battleship, FSS(Federation Space Service) Washington.
It was the biggest ship in the Universe, made by merging Thanos' Sanctuary II and 500 Kree main ships. But the only way for it to use jump was with Hector's infinity stones, as no piece of tech could move that huge thing through jumps.
Hector snapped his finger and summoned an army of 500 Billion Federation soldiers in 345,000 warships. There were also many AI ships. Then he noticed Odin's army also appeared on their mythical boats. He allowed Odin and Thor to enter his ship.
"It's an unfortunate time but good to see you, Hector." Odin shook his hand.
Hector nodded and spoke with all the leaders. "Remember, as soon as you see the first sign of attack, go all out. Turn the whole planet into glass. Since they are not part of the Federation, our protection does not extend to them.
"Avengers, F4, and X-Men will come with me to meet with the Emperor of Shi'ar. I think I will end up killing him anyway, but if this situation can be resolved peacefully, I'd prefer that. Let's move."
Hector made a portal and landed on the surface of the planet. Chandilar is the throneworld, hence it had the fitting technological advancement. But what was different about Shi'ar was that they were too diverse with their looks and powers.
But they were no different from the Kree as they too loved slavery and had lawless tendencies. Clearly, the empire could use some freedom. But the Federation was focused on redeveloping after the great war, so they ignored the Shi'ar.
Apparently, the silence was taken as weakness from Shi'ar's side. But now Hector was here to fix everything.
As he arrived, Hector was greeted by Emperor's advisor. It was a random creature that Hector didn't care about. "Take me to my granddaughter or face extinction."
The alien didn't cower in fear even after having their planet surrounded. This developed some doubts in Hector's mind. ~What's behind their confidence?~
"Follow me. I shall take you to the trial. Which one of you shall be the legal counsel for the Phoenix?"
Hector stepped forward, "I will be the one. Now move."
Soon, they were brought to the large arena with the help of hovering vehicles. The arena appeared full as if some gladiator fight was to happen there. But at the center of the arena was a white crystal with Jean stuck inside.
Hector didn't wait and leapt into the field and tapped onto the crystal, breaking it apart and holding Jean in his arms. She slowly opened her eyes and smiled, "Ah, G-grandpa... can I have an ice cream?"
She used to say this all the time when she was little. He caressed her hair and nodded, "Of course, but first, let me get rid of these filthy creatures."
There was a reason behind Hector's anger. His whole goal to erase the Dark Phoenix from her body was to ensure she never had to suffer for something she never did. He wanted her to have a happy fluffy life. What Shi'ar did was against everything he did.
The loud announcement boomed just then, "The trial of Dark Phoenix commences now. Emperor Vulcan shall be presiding over the trial with 20 other judges. The defendant's counsel is the President of the United Galactic Federation."
But in response, Hector's voice boomed, "The trial of Shi'ar Empire for illegally entering the Federation Space and kidnapping a person shall commence. Send your counsel quickly, or I might declare you guilty and order the orbital bombardment."
Sure enough, the ordinary folks didn't know that their planet was surrounded and now in danger of being destroyed. They started talking with each other and looked panicked.
Emperor Vulcan stood up and jumped into the arena to face Hector. He appeared to be like any other human middle-aged male. "I should be the one defending my Empire. Only an Emperor should speak with another Emperor." contemporary romance
Hector scoffed, "Kid, I'm not an Emperor."
"In that case, me neither. Oh wait, people are still calling me Emperor. See that? It does not matter what you call yourself. What people see you as is what you become."
Hector waved his hand, gesturing for him to shut up. "I will count till ten. If you can't tell me a real plausible reason for hurting Jean, I will destroy this planet."
"It's pretty simple..." The Emperor kept grinning as Hector counted.

Just when he was about to finish, Vulcan finished, "To trap you!" 𝓯𝒓𝒆𝒆𝔀𝒆𝓫𝓷𝙤𝒗𝒆𝒍.𝙘𝙤𝙢
