Marvel: Mr. President

Chapter 276: Mutant War



Chapter 276: Mutant War

[You can read chapters in advance, OP and GOT fic on /misterimmortal.]

"Have you gone mad, Fury? I do not wish to be the President anymore! I am trying to unite the world, not roleplay world war two!" Hector tore the appointment letter signed by Congress.

However, Fury was just a messenger. "Sir, as far as I know, we need you. Yes, the world is safe as long as you stand here, but still, we need someone to unite us. America is the strongest nation on the planet, and if you don't come, I don't think people will agree to eventually let go of their nationality to become one with the planet."

Hector grunted vocally, not liking this unilateral decision. But the thing was already made public, and if he denied it now, then the people might come to hate him, call him a traitor. Funny enough, he didn't consider borders and nations, as United Terra was one single unit.

"If I take the office again, then other nations might not trust menations that are a part of the United Terra right now. That will destroy all my work." He argued.

"Congress has agreed to let you hold the office of the UN President-General simultaneously. The world is at war already, so it's not like the UN veto can do anything as the two UNSC members are on the opposing side." Fury explained.

Hector looked at the papers and sighed. "This much work will be the death of me, man. Fine, but don't expect me to always be present in the White House. This war is only starting, and the enemy has not yet launched their own mutant units."

Since he had already decided to leave the universe after uniting the planet, he decided to give this job another try, this time slightly differently. But he had too many things to focus on this time, and thankfully, he was going to be using the infinity stones to the fullest.

There were no demons to fight anymore, but only the demons of the mind, greed, and the other deadly sins.

There was no new big oath-taking ceremony. It was simply announced in the news that Hector is the President yet again, temporarily, however.

...

Avengers Tower

The Avengers was not just a small team of elites anymore. But instead, it had many more heroes from around the world. However, Tony, Captain, and Natasha were the leaders of this whole faction of nearly 300 superheroes.

"Okay, since the old man is going to return, he will likely ask us to help him. I'm sure there are mutants and other superpowered people working for the enemy side as well, so we have to think about that. As for the normal war, I believe the soldiers got that covered." Captain Rogers, in reality, General, was leading the heroes.

"Well, it's only a few Asian countries and Russia that are against us. Nukes are useless anyway, so that leaves mutants. We need more people to overwhelm them." Tony noted down.

The real problem was that China was also standing against the United Terra, as its government didn't want to let go of its control yet. Although they were not participating in the war directly, they were going to be sending their mutant talents to Russia.

This posed a challenge because China alone had more population than Europe and the US combined. Thankfully, the United Terra was more valuable at this point as it covered all of the American Continents, Australia, most of Europe, Africa, and another big population giant, India.

This provided not only enough soldiers to Hector's criminal army but also gave thousands of mutants trained to fight.

However, in this war, Hector was going to sit back a little and not do everything on his own. He will guide the superheroes to act, while slowly showing himself getting weaker.

Hence, he had taken out that walking cane again that he had received as a gift from the Native tribe years ago. Then, in his first televised appearance in weeks, he appeared older for some reason.

He was outside the Avengers Tower, where he was supposed to address the media before he went in to plan the Mutant War.

With his reading glasses on, light makeup to look old that lovely Diana did, and using a cane made sure the world saw Hector as someone who had grown too old now. He didn't, however, hunch his back as that was too beneath him.

The journalists were all silent when Hector stopped in front of the mic, showing respect to the old legend.

"Once again, I have become the President, this time without wanting to. They say I am their Lucius Quinctius Cincinnatus, but I don't know. I was not a farmer.

"But, this war has started that I must end. I was going to do it anyway, but it seems Congress felt it would be better if I led the nation right now. In reality, I was already leading the nation in this war as the President of the UN and the head of United Terra.

"Alas, I'm here. I will assure you that this war ends with the least bloodshed possible. I will ensure the whole planet is united by the end so we may sign the joining letter of the United Galactic Federation and finally become a space civilization.

"I'm old now... so I hope this is the last war I have to fight. I've honestly had enough and wish to retire now. Have a good day. I shall go and plan for the coming war. Keep an eye on the news updates for quick information."

Hector didn't take any questions this time and slowly walked into the Avengers Tower.

...

He looked around at the room full of heroes. They were going to be keeping the world safe after he was gone. He was at least optimistic about it for now that they were adequately fit to do it.

"Steve, I'm afraid you're going to have to lead troops in Europe again," Hector ordered.

Steve sighed and chuckled. "Like the old days? I'd like it if Bucky and Peggy could accompany me."

"Sure, take them with you. Now, for Tony, I need you to head the new division I have created. I call them Earth Sentinels. They are loyal to the planet instead of the nations. They are the best men trained to kill with armor inspired by space technology.

"Jean, you will be leading the various mutants with the help of Xavier. You will talk with everyone and help all those who are facing enemies too strong. "

"What about me?" Asked one tall, red-masked Deadpool.

Hector honestly had no idea what to even do with this guy. "Just don't mess things up and destroy my name. Go back to Africa and work there."

"But I am done with all of them."

"Then do it again. Just stay out of Europe for now. My trust in you is less than my trust in Logan to not drink." Hector ordered the man down and moved on. "Magneto, your job is to create shelters for the people that live near the enemy lines. You can take a team with you for protection. Also, do not worry about killing enemies. This war is for peace, and it needs blood."

Yao nodded at the side, being one of the Avengers at this point. She would have originally said that wars are stupid, but being Hector's friend had clearly changed her in American ways. "Bloodshed is the price for the coming peace. But, how much is the real question."

Hector thumped the cane on the floor and looked around. "I will not be fighting in this war personally, as I have some other things in the background to deal with. So I leave this to youbest of luck. Move out!"

Immediately the heroes started leaving the building in various Shield quinjets. Hector stopped Logan, however. The man had only returned from Mars and was enjoying some time relaxing.

Hector went to Tony's bar and poured a drink. "How are you, pal? I hope you liked the red planet."

Logan grunted. "I hate sand."

"Bwahaha understood, my Anakin Skywalker. Anyway, I wish to talk to you about something important. Logan, my friend, it has been a great ride all these years. It was fun. It was emotional, and also badass.

"But, I'm afraid my time is coming, old wolf,"

Crack!

All of a sudden, the whiskey glass in Logan's hand cracked. The wolf looked at Hector with a plain face and asked. "Are you not well?"

"I am well... but this universe isn't."
