Marvel: Breezing Through History as an Eternal

Chapter 44: The Lord Seeks Judgement, 1193 CE

[Helen’s POV]

As she was locked up in a rather empty room again, Helen started to hear shouts from the outside, while she didn’t know what was happening, she might have an idea on what, or rather, who caused the debacle.

Her eyes lit up as she heard the shouts. “Pluto’s here!” she murmured excitedly. She stood up and walked towards the door. She checked if it is locked, and unfortunately, it is.

“Hey! Any guards outside?!” shouted Helen, trying to hear a reaction.

No one answered.

She listens for more than a minute if there’s a movement noise from outside, and to her surprise, there isn’t any.

“Pluto must’ve really caused a scene for the door to be unguarded huh…” she murmured.

She stepped back a little bit, gathering her strength to her body. “Alright Helen, you can do this, you’re strong enough.”

She then ran towards the door, slamming herself and making the locking mechanism break.

“Well…” Helen breathed as she examined the broken door. “That was easy.”

She looked around the hall, it was empty, it seemed that a lot of the servants in the palace had evacuated along with the royals.

When she was trying to find an exit, she saw a body was being transported to the inside of the palace. She hid around the corner, trying to see who was dead.

She failed, as the body was covered in cloth, and men surrounded the body.

So, while the men were distracted, she snuck out from that part of the palace, and continued to find the exit of the castle.

As she was walking through the halls of the palace, the ground continuously shook, as if an earthquake was in progress.

“What is going on outside…” she questioned herself as she stopped, waiting for the earthquake to stop.

As soon as the ground stopped shaking, she continued, she explored the halls, trying to find the exit to no avail.

“This place is like a labyrinth…” murmured Helen. She tries again, scouring the halls while watching if there’s any guards from the edge of the hall.

A couple of minutes later, she finally found it, but there was one problem. She could hear voices from behind the big door, and from what she could hear, the voices sounded like Paris.

She clenched her fist as she remembered what Paris and her men did to her. Humiliation, they tainted her, she couldn’t shake the experience of it, she had nightmares because of that.

She wanted to find another exit, but it must be far away from where she is. So she risked it. She opened the door slowly, trying to not make a noise, and she snuck out from the door, slowly sneaking at the back of Paris and his men.

But then she saw something. She saw that Pluto was being bound by strange devices in the middle of the battlefield. She didn’t like what she saw at all. She couldn’t quite see Pluto’s face, but she is sure of it, it’s Pluto.

As she saw the scene, she panicked, and stumbled, making a loud noise while at it.

As soon as she stumbled, Paris and his men turned, they looked surprised, how can this woman get out?

“Men! Bring her back to the palace!” shouted Paris.

“No!” Helen cursed, she tried to run, but the men were faster. The men grabbed Helen’s arms roughly, and they were starting to drag Helen to the palace.

“No! Pluto!” she shouted as loud as possible.

She tried to break free, but she was only a queen, she was not a warrior, so she couldn’t.

But then, a deep voice full of rage sounded from the battlefield.

“You… fucking… MONGRELS!!!!”

A golden wave of energy exploded in the middle of the battlefields. Cracks started to appear in the walls, Paris and his men were thrown away. Helen was slammed against the wall.

And before they knew it, the defenders couldn’t believe what they saw. The entire battlefield has suddenly turned gold.

[minutes before]

As Pluto and the others faced each other, they continued to talk to one another. Ajak’s side were beaten up, Sersi is full of wounds, Makkari is hurt, and Ajak is tired from all the healing.

“Please get out of the way,” said Pluto calmly.

“We can’t do that Pluto, you know that.” answered Ajak.

“If you’re worried that I will attack the civilians, don’t worry, I have no plans on doing that.”

“And we’re supposed to trust you?” questioned Sersi as she tried to stand up, ignoring the pain. “You killed the prince.”

“It was a miss.” said Pluto nonchalantly. “I was targeting the cunt beside him. But it’s not like he’s not guilty either.”

“He’s trying to protect his city Pluto.” Ajak said.

Pluto chuckled softly and added. “Not enough. He could’ve surrendered Helen and his brother to avoid war. But he chose his brother’s head rather than his people’s lives.”

“If you were in his shoes and Helen was Paris, would you do the same?” questioned Ajak.

Pluto’s face contorted as something was coming from the sky. It was his spear, returning to his arm. “Bring her out of this.” said Pluto as he stabbed the ground with his spear, resting it.

“Let’s go back, Pluto…” pleaded Ajak. “It’s not worth the consequences.”

Pluto narrowed his eyes. “What about Helen then? I just leave her? Who knows what they might have done to her… if they–”

“We can’t interfere with human affairs Pluto, you know that…” cut off Ajak.

“He’s right Pluto,” said Gil. “Come on man, I don’t want to fight you.”

Pluto closed his eyes, and breathed the air that was full of dust. He grabbed the bident and said. “I’m sorry Gil, but I cannot stand idly while Helen was suffering. She is someone precious to me…”

“Why are you so attached to her?” asked Ajak curiously. “It’s not like you…”

“I have my reasons.” hummed Pluto. “She made me feel human. She made me feel… alive.”

Ajak nodded. “I understand… but I’m sorry Pluto, we can’t allow you to proceed.”

As soon as Ajak said that, he felt something was approaching from behind him. He quickly turned his head and body around, and grabbed something from the air. It was empty, but he could feel it.

“Your Illusion won’t work on me Sprite.” said Pluto coldly.

Pluto then slammed Sprite’s head, who was still invisible, to the ground, and it made the ground cracked.

“STOP!” shouted Ajak in panic. But Pluto didn’t listen.

As soon as Sprite’s Illusion broke, he saw the bleeding face of Sprite. “It’s rare for you to fight Sprite…” said Pluto, he then whispered to her ears. “Or do you want Ikaris to see you?”

Sprite’s eyes widened, and she tried to break away, to no avail. Pluto stomped Sprite’s stomach, making her clutched her stomach in pain.

He sat on top of her, and she punched her face repeatedly. It was so strong that the ground shook repeatedly, as if an earthquake was in progress.

Makkari then tried to save Sprite. She dashed toward Pluto, and slammed her body to Pluto repeatedly, as she slammed, she ran away, and she ran towards Pluto to slam her body again, beating up Pluto.

Again, Pluto then grabbed Makkari’s head, and slammed her head towards the ground. Pluto then grabbed his bident that was on the ground. He stood on top of Makkari, and he made a stabbing stance on top of her, intending to pierce her stomach.

But then, something suddenly grabbed Pluto’s hand. It was a handcuff. He wanted to break free from it, but couldn’t. He turned around, and saw Phastos, his face pale, he seemed like he was in a hurry.

Pluto tried to use his power, but couldn’t. He tried to break free from it, but again, he couldn’t.

“Nothing personal Pluto.” Phastos said. “Cosmic Energy sealer.”

“Release me, Phastos.” commanded Pluto.

“Pluto, let’s go back. You’ve crossed the line.” said Ajak, walking towards Pluto. He was still handcuffed, and she hugged him.

“I know Helen means a lot to you… but we have a rule to follow.”

“Stay away from me, Ajak.” said Pluto. “I will ask one more time. Release me.”

“It’s over, Pluto.” said Ikaris as the string that imprisoned him disappeared. “We’ll bring you to the Domo”

“But Helen–”

He didn’t continue his words, as he saw her. Helen. He saw her in the palace, struggling to break free from the grasps of men. She looked desperate. Pluto could see it in her eyes. Pain. humiliation. Sadness.

“No! Pluto!” he could hear Helen’s shout from afar.

Something inside him triggered. Something… restless. Something… rageful.

His face looked calm, but Ajak could feel something was wrong.

He took a deep breath, and he stared at the walls of Troy hatefully.

“You… fucking… MONGRELS!” roared Pluto as he easily broke free of the handcuffs. His eyes glowed golden, and an explosion of cosmic energy suddenly burst from his body, throwing everyone down a couple of feet away.

The walls cracked, the air became heavy, and the army in the back of Pluto was running towards the ship, to seek shelter.

The defenders however, saw a golden field. It was the Golden legion of Pluto. Hundreds of thousands of constructs appeared before him with different shapes and forms.

“This is bad…” Gil murmured as he stood up, helping the others. “We need to stop him before he kills everyone in the city!”

Pluto was now standing straight. His eyes were golden, and he was expressionless.

“The lord seeks judgement..” said Idemnon calmly, appearing beside Pluto. “And so the judgement day shall begin.”

Asterion was standing tall. And roared to the Trojan warriors, inciting fear in their hearts.

Paris, who was watching the events unfold, could only stand and despair at the sight. “What have we done?”
