Victory and Future Dangers
3/4/1945, SSR Camp, HYDRA Fortress
The Invaders had been sitting around each other at the moment when there was an angry noise from Joseph, “About time.” he had snarled, making the Invaders all look towards their comrade, “What’s wrong?” Zarda had asked, concerned for him as he had used the Prism to send the paper towards them, “They declared Steve MIA publicly now, how much you wanna bet The Newspapers do the same soon?”
None of them had thought it was right that they had covered it up, that they had made the man into a secret and only now were revealing the truth, “How much do you wanna bet that they’re going to try and replace Cap?” Toro had asked of them, “A country needs a symbol.” Gwen had told him, “And unfortunately, symbols don’t have the ability to be people, only heroes or martyrs.”
All of them had agreed with that as Namor spoke, “I don’t care.” he said, “Steve Rogers was my friend, not Captain America,” Namor had said, all of them nodding at that with Zarda getting up now, “Well.” she had said, groaning as the Utopian got the kink out of her back, “Why don’t we get back to it?” she had asked, making the group all nod at that as they had got back to it.

3/4/1945, The Royal Palace, Attilan
Blackagar and Medusalith had been walking through the halls when they had seen that there was Astog there who had a pregnant woman with him, “My King, my lady Medusalith.” the photokinetic had said towards them with a bow, “It is always good to see you so…calm.” he had said towards them, making the pair give a look as the woman had smiled, placing a hand on her stomach which made the two look.
“You have a child?” Medusa had asked of him, making Astog nod, “Yes, a young boy that I cannot wait to raise.” he had said and hearing that, the two had looked towards each other before Black Bolt had quirked his brow, “He should be born in August… The Genetic Council had deemed that our genetics would create QUITE the powerful citizen.” he had said.
That had made the royals a bit concerned, all of them knowing that Astog was still thinking on how he would be able to defeat Black Bolt, it only seemed that now he was giving the task to his son, “Have you decided upon a name yet?” Medusa had asked of him, making the woman nod now, “Yes, we had decided that he would be called Mordis.” she had told them.
The two of them had smiled at that, “Mordis Boltastog… a strong name.” The fiance of The King had said towards them, that had made him smile, “Thank you, I expect him to be stronger than myself at least.” he said as they had walked away and as they had done so, both of them had started to think that they were going to have to worry about a future danger right now.

4/12/1945, The Depot, Atlantis
Auran had been working with some of the tech that The Atlanteans had been working with when she saw that there was Byrrah and some soldiers were there, “Well then,Pinkling.” The Blonde had said with a smile, Auran still hating that term, she had white fur and her skin was definitely not pink when they had seen that there was a few more with weapons at the ready.
“Yes, like we agreed, I am leaving to report to my people about Ryūgū-jō.” she had told them which had made Byrrah nod at that, “And if there’s anything you can do about finding Namor and figuring out what he is planning right now, that would be a GREAT benefit to us.” he had said and hearing that, Auran nodded, “Of course, when I have the ability to do as much, then the information will be yours.” she had lied.
She had been watching and seen that Nammu was the type to not trust him and she had trusted Nammu more than him as they had started to move and allow her to get onto the device, “Thank you.” Auran had said towards him, bowing her head now and as she had done so, The Inhuman had started to think on how she was going to find her way back to Attilan, “The Vessel is preprogrammed.” Byrrah had told her.
“You need only to start it up and it will bring you to surface, once that is done, you need to only move the wheel like once would a vehicle.” he continued, making her nod at that before they had went to let her leave, with that, Auran had started to power up the vehicle and take a deep breath as she had started to move it forward now, the vessel feeling like she had been flying like when Aireo used to take her.
It was making the woman take a deep breath, smiling now when he had noticed that there was a few dials and screens, all of them in the Atlantean Language now which was making her wish she had forced her friend to teach her the other language when she had begun to feel a shaking, “Did Byrrah set a bomb inside?” She had thought before starting to look around now.
She had seen that there was a vessel that was approaching her now, one that had looked VERY familiar, “Triton?” she had asked out loud when all of a sudden there was a chuckling in her head, “Close, but no Cigar.” Her oldest friend had said to her, making Auran a bit happy but also a bit worried on why he was meeting her like this or even how he had found her in the first place right now.

4/12/1945, Syrmia, Slavonia
Zarda had been tackling Master Man now, the blonde had been furious as he had went to attack them as well, both of them trying to kill each other as Zarda had went and headbutted him hard, wanting to take the man out as The Utopian had finally went and thrown the Nazi into a stone wall and as she had done so, there was a roar as a creature had shot out with six horns and tentacles for claws as it had attacked.
The creature had grabbed her throat and then went to gore her before Doctor Spectrum had went and shot off his horns, making the creature scream, the tentacles forming and becoming six arms now as the creature had went to deal with Zarda while Master Man had went and flown upwards to attack Doctor Spectrum, the pair of them grappling now in the air.
Spectrum had coated himself in the energy of the Prism, making him strong enough to face off against The Enhanced man had snarled as he had started to punch at him when there was a crack in his protection, seeing that, he had went and decided to go full power as Spectrum had went and created a blast that was with everything that he had before firing at him now.
That had made the Man fall backwards now as Namor and Triton had went and engaged Warrior Woman and some of the others that were there besides their fellow soldiers and as they had done so, the Yugoslav forces that they had started to bring in had marched forward, all of them going to attack the forces that were there, all of them looking around at the damage that was there.
“Move forward!” Namor had shouted towards the others that were there, making Triton shout out as well, tossing one of his Kopis towards Namor as they had went to fight, Master Man, Warrior Woman and The one known as Pluto, the monster facing Zarda, had glared towards them as they had proceeded to move now, heading out to escape from the fight at the moment.

The assembled Allied Forces had all been looking around everywhere before they had seen that there was a few more pushes and they would be able to take care of Hitler and all of the other enemies that they had there, “So, whose gonna have first hit at Hitler?” Joseph had asked them which had made them start to laugh at that, “Me!” “No me!” “Let’s draw lots!” they had all enjoyed this little moment.

4/12/1945, The Needle, Atlantic Ocean
Maximus had smiled as his friend of the longest time had walked in through the hatch that he had designed after he had stolen it and right now, he had begun to look towards them all there before he had seen her, “Auran!” He had said, walking over to hug her while she had been confused by that, “What is going on?” she had asked of him, “Where’s Triton? Why are you here–?” “Hush.” he had said.
That had made her glare towards him, hating that her friend would do something like that to her as she had went and kept her mouth shut for the moment, glaring at him playfully while he had went to sit down, “You see, the medication that was designed for me? The pills that keep Maximus The Mad at bay?” he had asked, making the woman nod at that, “Well, Maximus The Mage won’t be needing them anymore.”
That had made the Inhuman worried, wanting to say something, to calm him down, but instead, Maximus had spoken, “You’re going to see Maximus The Mad the same way as Maximus The Mage.” He had said, making Auran nod at that, “You can speak now.” he had said and hearing that, Auran had smiled, “Did you seriously have to do that, Max?” she had asked of him.
“Sorry, couldn’t help myself.” Maximus had told her, “You’re going to be absolutely loyal to Maximus over Attilan.” he had told Auran, making her smile, “Of course.” she had said towards him, “So what are we doing now?” Auran had asked of her friend and closest ally, “We’re going to create a foothold here.” he had told the woman, “And Black Bolt won’t see it coming.”

4/25/1945, Torgau, Berlin
They had heard the sound of The invading Red Army as they began to march towards the Allied forces, both of them had been looking towards the forces that were there, “Ах! Приветствую вас, друзья мои!(Ah! Greetings my friends!)” The Russian in front had said towards them, “Ты здесь, чтобы наконец положить конец сумасшедшему?(Are you here to finally put the madman down?)” he had said.
They had all started to nod at that, making The Russians nod at that as they had all been wearing some cloth or the like covering their mouths and as they saw this, the Allied forces had been looking towards them all right now as they had looked around before they had seen that there was a few that were eyeing the Invaders, Gwen and Zarda since Jacqueline was with her brother.
They had started to glare at that, disliking it while Phillips had spoken, “Alright lads and lass’s! We’re on the move now! Next stop, Hitler’s doorstep!” The Army Man had told them all, making the group start to either nod or cheer at that as they had started to advance forward, all of them going to reach The Germans first while The Russians had smiled at well towards him.
As they had started to advance now, walking through the streets that had been cleared, all of them were at the ready, they were battered, bruised, but not one of them was going to go down without a fight as they had marched forward, Gwendolyn was playfully bumping into Robbie while Zarda had an ax at the ready as she had lost helmet and most of her gear now.
Her long hair was in a ponytail with a headband and the one piece she had usually worn with boots, Triton had walked up to her, the mask he had worn at full power right now as he had some tactical gear on like the others and his preferred blades, “When the war is over…” Triton had said towards her, making The Utopian give a look, “Would you mind going to Attilan with me? So that we can unite our people?” he asked.
That had made Zarda smile, happy that her friend had still wanted to be there with her, “As long as I can bring Howard with me.” she had said, making him give a look, “I didn’t know that you two were so close.” he had said, making the woman smile, “Of course, we–” she had started to say when there was a shot that had almost hit her in the temple but did take one of the nearby Russsians.
“Снайперы в домах!(Snipers in the houses!)”one of them had shouted as The Germans had begun to open fire upon the group, Torch flying down now whileSpectrum had created a barrier to protect them, “Top! Toro! We need cover!” he had ordered, making the two boys create a flaming tornado for a moment and as they had done so, Zarda and Gen had rushed into one of the buildings.
They had moved inside, Zarda taking a piece of metal and lifting it like her shield while she had slashed at another with her hatchet, the rainbow glow of the fragment of… whatever it was, almost seeming to cut space as she had went to body check one of the men there, looking wounded and tired it had seemed as Gwen had created a wall of light so that she could keep them contained.
As they had done so, Zarda and a Russian with a Flamethrower had started to rush upwards now, heading towards the top while Russian Soldiers had aimed downwards and opened fire, the Utopian had went and covered him as they had started to move upwards now, Zarda going and leaping up now and grabbing a few to pull down now when there was a sound on the other side.
It was fire, it was screams, it was The Human Torch going Flame one while Namor had rushed out to carry the men that were there in his arms, the woman had smiled at that as she had started to look around and then started to realize that there was a lack of strength in the men there, they were all weak, covered in bandages and pain, they had been scared at that.
Seeing them, she had started to pause before seeing that there was some of them holding a White Flag now and that had made her pause, looking around before nodding, until a soldier had went and fired on them both, seeing that, Zarda had turned in anger before she had realized it was one of her own, surprising her and making Zarda start to feel something now.

They had finished up with the ambush and as the group had started to look around, see that there was a few of the others there now, she had went and sat on a piece of broken stone, taking a shaky breath as Gwen had looked at her, “Are you okay?” The woman had asked, making The Utopian shake her head at that, “No.” Zarda had told her, “No I don’t think so.”.
That had made Gwen surprised, she had always been strong, the indomitable warrior that had always been there to help them however they could, she had seemed so… so not herself like that, “Come on, we’re almost done.” Gwen had told her, making Zarda nod, “We’re almost done.” she had said as they had started to move, “Almost done, almost done then we can go home.
The Invaders had started to move now, all of them a bit tired and both a bit tense as they had started to move now, each of them going and looking around at everything with some caution right now, as they did so, each of them had started to hear the sound of more soldiers that were at the ready now and it had made each of them at the ready as they had went to fight them again.

4/30/1945, Berlin, Germany
The Invaders, The Commandos, every Enhanced Soldier from Union Jack to The Blue Blade(Ugh), had come in with their gear at the ready, Jacqueline and Brian with some of the others had all been at the ready as they had rushed into Hitler’s Palace, all of them going to attack right now as Triton had move forward, the air feeling that, he had started to dodge now, avoiding a few shots now.
Triton had went and grabbed a fallen man’s gun and shot, nearly hitting one of his allies, “Move it, Tourist!” he had snarled towards the non powered Superhero as he had looked up and seen that there was Master Man charging and hitting Spectrum, shouting in German as he had crashed into one of the wings that was there, Spectrum had been powering up his prism to burn his face now.
“Just die already you bastard!” Joseph had snarled, going and angry while Master Man had simply taken it before he had smashed his head into the prism, knocking it back and disrupting the field around him, “Shit–!” he had started to say before Master Man had punched him into the gut now, making a new hole in him as Master man had leaned in now.
“Ich weiß, dass das Reich vorerst besiegt ist,(I know that The Reich is defeated for now,)” he had told him, “Ich wollte nur mein Pfund Fleisch, bevor ich mit den anderen verschwinde.(I just wanted my pound of flesh before I disappear with the others.)” Master Man told him before he had went to fly away, holding the item in question as he had flown off and away now.
Joseph had started to bring up a field, putting himself together now with the lost muscle as he had went to join the others, all of them moving forward with a purpose, to finally end the Reich here, they had started to move forward, further and further in to see it all and fight side by side, all of them going and moving to attack the Reich Chancellery right now as they had seen something.
They had seen that some of them had started to run out now, holding white flags as they had seen that there was some fear, and a phrase that had been repeated over and over, “Der Führer ist tot!(The Fuhrer is dead!)” they had said, making the soldiers there between shocked and confused at the moment at what was going to be happening now with him gone.

5/8/1945, Berlin, Germany
“Here’s looking at you, Hitler!” one of the soldiers had shouted as they had been celebrating, cheering now, Zarda among them with her team, the adults drinking while the Synthezoid and children had been smiling and a bit excited right now as they had celebrated and been looking around at it all, “So, what now?” David had asked, making the others all look at him and then each other.
“I’m going Maximus hunting.” Triton had told them all, “I’m joining The Pacific Front, there’s issues with The Lemurians there.” he had explained, making the others all look towards each other before Zarda spoke, “I’ll join you.” she had said, Joseph nodding as well as Jim had gotten up, “So then, when are we going?” he had asked, making the others all smile as they knew that they were going together.
“When this is over, I want to bring you all to Utopia Isle.” Zarda had said, making the group smile at that before Triton had gotten an idea, “How about your future husband?” he had asked, making them all start to laugh and holler at that right about now as they had seen that there was a blush now while Triton had sighed, hoping that his cousin was going to be safe wherever he was.

5/8/1945, Bolt Technologies, Bangor
Maxius had been wearing a black suit with hsi hair in a undercut, glad that he had made sure that his image was never in those comics without a mask on or the like as he had started to look towards Auran, “It seems that we’ve won.” he had told her, making The Inhuman surprised, “What about Pluto and Romulus?” she had asked of him, making the man scoff.
Those two vanished before The War had ended.” he had told her, his eyes and ears telling him everything thanks to the little…impulses that he had been implanting, “If they pop up like The German Enhanced, than I will be genuinely surprised.” he had told the woman as she had finished up with her beating, cleaning up her bloodied and healing knuckles, the woman went to his side.
The two of them had looked down upon the spy that they had found, trying to steal his work, greedy, ambitious, just the kind of man they needed, “Alright, let’s see about turning you to our side.” he had said, his mind already working to convert the man while they had begun to plan more and more for their future so that they would be able to prepare for the defeat of Black Bolt.
