Hector stood in the war room, waiting for the first stats to come in. This will define how fast he needs to go and how prepared the Kree are for this war.
Peter, Gamora and Natasha were acting as his assistants, helping him keep a record of everything. Unfortunately, Yelena was too young, and it was better she didn't read reports of a thousand people dying because a ship got blasted.
"Grand General, General Wolverine has given the status, he has cleared off 15 planets already, and no large scale battle has happened," Peter said.
Gamora further added: "General Yondu cleared off his sector as well, one battleship lost, ten crew lost. General Kul has also cleared his sector, no casualties were reported, but one transporter ship was lost. General Adam has the best campaign, already cleared two sectors and nothing is lost. He used his own powers to destroy the ships from within. General Phong has also cleared his sector, and he's going on his own with the spacesuit and punching holes in enemy ships."
Hector then faced Natasha, as she reported, "General Zebulon has reported three ships lost, 1,200 casualties. General Topher is still pushing into the enemy. They are facing a space battle. The Skrulls have also gained positions by taking over many of the Nova Empire's assets. They are still in the middle of grouping all their forces. No response has been seen from the Kree Forces yet. Our fleet is the biggest and is supposed to face the most might of the Empire."
"What about Jean? Where is that little girl?" He asked her.
*Cough*
"I'm not little anymore, grandpa,"
"JEAN? What are you doing here?" Hector turned around, only to find Jean happily sitting and eating Oreo. Updated from novelbIn.(c)om
"Grandpa, I don't have to be there at all times. I can teleport, after all. And I can get a better look at the situation from here as you get all the information. For example, I will head to General Topher as there's a space battle going on." She argued and soon finished the packet.
Then she got up, and her body caught fire, soon to vanish along with those sparks. Hector simply sighed, "I should be more strict with kids,"
Diana chuckled, "And you need to be less strict on yourself. Look at your forehead. Lines of wrinkles, those are signs of overwork and frowning too much,"
He instinctively touched it and felt some patterns, "Well, I'm immortal but still an old man. Oh, Diana, how much I envy you,"
"Haha, believe it or not, I actually look much older. Look at my face. You can see some age lines," she still complained.
Hector cursed in his head, ~Damn girl, you're beautiful enough to be the wet dream of every teenager even after being this old.~
"You don't have white hair, though, so that makes you still young," he countered.
But before Diana could say something, Moony jumped on Hector's lap, his forehead creased in worry, as he barked continuously, ~Daddy, I got white fur everywhere; I'm old? How old? Am I not handsome anymore? Will bitches still love me?~
He tried his best to control his laughter at the last words and kissed the good boy on the head, "Boy, you are the most handsome good boy in the universe. I'm sure you will find someone."
"What did he say?" Diana asked.
"Nothing, he just thought he's very old due to his fur. He can be very dense sometimes,"
A few metres away from them, Peters was feeling envious, "Man, when I'm old, I wish to look like them."
Gamora scoffed and moved away while snarkily taunting, "Then stop eating french fries every day,"
Triggered, Peter ran after her, "HOW DARE YOU! You just disrespected the staple American diet!"

Freedom One,
Hector's fleet was making steady progress towards Hala. However, they had to face a few skirmishes as Kree Ships would come to harass them and delay their move.
The Kree were planning something, and Hector knew this. So he also kept his fleet at all times on a high level of alert.
*BEEP BEEP*
"Another distraction?" Hector annoyedly asked.
Peter looked at the screen of the navigation officer, "Nope, it's a single small ship, too small, actually... and weird."
"Weird?"
"Um... it looks like an egg,"
"..."
Hector's mind went into overdrive, and a particular person came to his mind. So he quickly moved to look at the screen. As he expected, this was the worst-case scenario. ~This fucker, he had to come now. Did he strike an alliance with the Kree?~
He glanced at Diana, "Shield's up,"
"Always ready, Hector,"
He turned back to face Peter, "Son, do you trust me?"
Peter saluted, "With my life, my soul and my body, old man,"
"Good, then whatever happens now, do not be swayed by feelings. Keep a clear mind and listen to me as well when we go to meet that ship."
"Who is in it?" Peter inquired.
Hector grunted in response, "A man with inflated Ego,"
