[A/N: PRAISE THE HOLY NUMBER 69!]
"Woof!" Moony was excited, showing it with his random barks and jumps.
Ancient one looked at the good boy that was taller than her, sure he was cute and sweet but... teach him sorcery? It just sounded too wrong to her. So she tried to ignore what he said, guessing he meant something else.
"Umm... what? Do you want to learn it? I mean, we have very good portal abilities." She asked, sounding panicked.
Hector shrugged, waving his hand and patting Moony's big head, "No no, my magic is already very strong. And I have my own teleportation ability, I just reserve it for emergencies, or else you lose the charm and element of surprise."
She once again looked at Moony, this time her eyes met his. "You... want me to teach your dog sorcery? Can he learn it?"
"He sure can sniff the magic out so I don't see any reason he can't," Hector argued. He was dead serious about this.
"Master, are you seriously considering doing this? This is madness, we don't even have a sling ring that will fit his... aw... cute paws," the monk, possibly her assistant, was angry and also fawning.
Moony knew that this was the moment to make it or break it, so he silently sat down and attacked them with the best puppy face and eyes he could make. "Awooo..."
( )
Ancient One was bald but her smile sure was radiant and had a charm. She grinned and rushed to hug the fluff, "Fine, I will train you to be the best sorcerer ever... do you want to be our first animal Master... or even Sorcerer Supreme? Yes, you will become that one day."
( _ ) Just then, Ancient One's assistant felt a disturbance in the air, ~W-why do I feel my position threatened?~
Hector laughed and lit a cigar, "Bwahaha... This is good, Moony, be good with your teacher. I will check your progress every week."
"Will you be coming here every week?" She asked, delighted to have such a strong character be available.
"Of course, Moony is my son, so I can't leave him alone. And there might be another mad man who may come to find Moony. Don't be too harsh on him. By the way, I want your help with something else. This one is about time. I need to use your Time Stone to look at the future of a certain woman." He requested like a gentleman.
"I do not own the Eye of Agamotto, the Universe does. For me, it is useless now, but for you, maybe it can be of use. Come with me. Master Bruce, please start earnestly training Moony. I will be taking the classes personally later," She ordered her student who had a white beard and hair. Honestly, Ancient One looked younger than all and was older than most, she was the ultimate trap.
He followed her into the wooden building, even more ancient than the Ancient Once. She took him deeper into the sanctum. They arrived at a door that had the map of the world.
"Do you know how to use that object?" she made small talk.
"Not really, but it won't be a problem. It only affects mortals." He replied, still looking around the room.
*Cough* "Then, here it is." she took the eye of Agamotto out of a metal box, only accessible with spells.
Without further ado, he picked it in his hand and took the Time Stone out. There was no need for him to worry about touching it. It was like a simple pebble for him. Closing his eyes, he tried to sense the magic in it.
The stone didn't need sorcery to look in time, just a simple understanding of the laws of nature was enough. This he had plenty. His goal was to check the future of current Agent Carter if he didn't put her in hibernation. The result was, no future Steve came back and she died of old age in 2014. He also found the exact location where Steve was stuck.
Not just that, he tried to check what kind of Universe he was in, was it strictly movies, or with shows, or even bigger, the Comic Universe. He was not able to come to any conclusion, however, as he had no idea what to look at. Maybe Galactus, but for that, he'd need to know where to look. He had no idea about this.
*Sigh* "Thank you, Yao. This will help me with a few things. It's time I head back now, take care of Moony, don't let him eat too many treats, sometimes he gets greedy and forgets how quickly he gains weight." He handed her a list of dos and don'ts.
"I will treat him with dignity and respect. He is certainly not a simple dog." She gave an official bow.
"I just might. Take care"
With the future seen, he kissed Moony's head and headed back to the United States. A country to run, a legacy to build. He wondered how people would treat him in the age of superheroes when they see him still alive and kicking.
"Sir, do you need anything else?" The pilot asked him before heading to the cabin. There were only three pilots as staff, one also part-timed as cabin crew. The plane was a small one that the Air Force used for Presidential transport. It was a Lockheed VC-121, not a very big or luxurious plane. He didn't like travelling in it as it didn't represent his image enough.
Still, he had ordered the U.S. Air Force to purchase a long-range 707, the Boeing C-137 Stratoliner, to become the new presidential transport aircraft. It was big and upgradable. It will be the first Air Force One. No one really raised brows at the purchase since Hector travelled a lot.
Soon enough, the plane was in the air, flying over Europe. The ideal route would have been to go over the USSR and then the Arctic, but since his presence was so threatening, he avoided entering USSR airspace, lest they launch the nukes.
He got up to pour himself a drink. It was a secret trip so he had not brought any staff with him. "Gah... I'm gonna miss Moony now. I already do,"
"Maybe I can give you company until then?"
A feminine voice resounded in the noisy cabin. Hector looked back towards the lavatory. "Who the heck are you?"
The woman seemed old but one who aged well, she was white, possibly American. Had a look of pride and power written on her face. She walked towards him, knocking her heels on the steel floor, "I am Alexandra Reid. You are a man very hard to meet, Mr President."
He shrugged, "Well, since you've already snuck up on the plane, take a seat. You want a drink?"
"No, these wines don't taste good enough for my buds. I like the ones I saved during my days in Constantinople, they are still ageing. I will send a bottle to you as a meeting gift." She said, sounding graceful.
Hector shrugged and started poking his ear to scratch it, "Your loss, I got this one from Hitler's bunker. The bastard had good taste. Anyway, now I know your name, so tell me why I should entertain you instead of killing you?"
Hearing a man speaking about killing her while appearing so carefree was the first for the woman. She was used to being the one in the seat of power, "I... there was a woman a long time ago who lost her beloved daughter and travelled east to find answers. She learnt from great masters and found that there exists a secret world with immortality, dragons and mystical powers.
"She decided to use those powers, so she left with four others. She lived for centuries and developed a vast emp..."
*Yawn* "The flight is 13 hours long, I wanted to sleep. So be quick, I'm not going to hear your monologue this whole time. Tell me one thing, why are you here? What do you want?" He questioned her.
"Cooperation. You are the strongest and most influential man in the world. We will give you 30 per cent of the cut. We are talking about billions of dollars in your pocket every year. Our business involves the sale of anything, from drugs to arms to clothes to furniture. You will be helping us enter markets taxless, saving much of the cost..." she was again interrupted.
"How much is your total operation worth right now?" He asked her.
"It's worth 69 Billion, with my four other friends, we operated around the world." She revealed.
Hector nodded, humming to himself and rubbing his long bread, "Ah, what a fine holy number, 69. Anyway, care to tell me what made you think I would agree?"
"You are spending money from your own pocket on various projects. With more money, you can do more. What you will be getting is going to be clean money."
"Hmm... what made you think I won't kill you right away for trying to bribe me?" He questioned again.
She shifted in her seat uncomfortably, not liking the piercing grey eyes of Hector, "Because we are in the sky and I have planted a bomb in the lavatory."
"BWAHAHAHA... Ah, my stomach," He burst into uncontrolled loud laughter, for a whole minute he kept laughing. This was the weakest ever threat he had faced.
He quickly pressed the button to call the cabin crew. Immediately an Air Force lieutenant came, "Sir... WAIT!"
He was shocked to find another person, Hector waved, "Son, code 69, you know the drill."
The lieutenant ran back into the cabin and locked it. Then the plane took a nosedive for a few seconds before once again stabilising. Hector kept his gaze on a light on the pilot cabin's door. It turned green from red. With that, he grinned devilishly.
*BAM*
At lightning speed, he extended his arm and grabbed the woman by her hair, then slammed her face down on the wooden table, cracking it up, "GOD DAMN, YOU PROUD BIMBO!..." *BAM* He lifted her again and slammed it once more.
"You dare to bribe the President of the United States of America? YOU? Puny little creature. Do you want to scare me with a bomb? With height?" He threw her back on her seat and pushed away the table.
*BOOM*
He pulled back his arm and plunged it straight at the metal floor of the plane, making a big hole, enough that one could see the mountains below. He then grabbed her again and slammed her head out of the hole.
Her face was already bloodied, going further pale, this man was mad beyond imagination. The plane was heading down, she could see first hand as the air brushed past her face so strong she could not breathe. Fear and dread took her heart, she only had longevity, not extreme strength.
Hector pulled her back and lifted her up so she was face to face, "Listen up, you done fucked up by coming to me. You thought I didn't know about the Hand? How you are none better than HYDRA?
"Haha... foolish woman, I am already 10 steps ahead of the world. Now, I am going to take all those 69 Billion and your entire fortune. Then I will build orphanages and schools around the world for sweet little innocent kiddies. But first, I shall burn you and take your ashes to K'un-Lun and gift it to them in return for friendship.
"You thought you were making a smart move infiltrating the plane? Hah, you only brought your doom years quicker." He pressed her neck harder, making her eyes go red and big, nearly popping out.
He was a giant man and her neck was no more than a little twig in his palm. But what shocked Alexandra Reid was that even when so violent, he was so calm. ~I... the world is being fooled... this can't be human.~ she thought.
"Ghk... p-ple-ase..." she breathed out words.
"What? You said please? Fine, I won't kill you." He released her, throwing her on the floor to cough and gasp for air.
Hector took his seat again and drank the remaining glass of whiskey, "I won't kill you, but this crash surely will."
Her face paled. She was fucked beyond any doubt.
