Chapter 9

She didn't know what to do but listen to Hades and head home. As she was walking to her apartment she was mentally preparing herself for the yelling Richter was going to give her. She took a deep breath before walking in. A brush that she held onto when she saw Howard sitting in the living room with Victor and James.

"What's going on here?" they all stood up and look at Belle.

"Belle, we were waiting for you," Howard said.

"Me?"

"Yes, I wanted to ask you something yesterday, but I didn't think that it would be the right way to ask you," he said. "And after talking to your brothers I got there approval." Howard got down on one knee and open a small box it held a beautiful ring. "Belle McFay Howlett Creed, would you do me the honor of being my wife."

Belle could believe what was happening all she could do was look at him then at the ring. She misinterpret what was happening this morning and she was ashamed of herself that she thought any less from him.

"Ate you sure you want me as a wife?"

"I wouldn't have risk being kill by your brother if I wasn't," he said.

"Yes, yes…" Belle started to cry. "I'll marry you"


That was the beginning of our new life. However came out of hiding and asked my brother's for my hand in marriage. But they're surprisingly approve of Howard, but she didn't know what he had said to convince Victor, but she was happy. Is Howard name was cleared the government announced that he was a hero and not a traitor. And before everyone had announced our engagement. The wedding was during the winter, December 22nd of 1946 to be exact. It was a small intimate outdoor wedding with only the closest friends and family. It was everything that she wanted. Her brothers gave her away and just as they say I do it started to snow lightly into the thin layer of snow on the ground.

Years have passed by, every day it felt like a honeymoon for the both of them, but again as the years gone by Howard start to age. She was worried how others would see them she even started to feel like going on the run again. But Howard continue to remind her that he liked having a young good-looking wife. And the new Shield was formed to protect her. Then she found out something great. She was pregnant with our child months later she was able to find out that she was having a boy. Then the troops were sent to the Vietnam War. Just as she was in her last month she receives a letter. It wasn't a normal letter that change sent her it was official. When she read it her stomach started to cramp.

"Howard! Jarvis!" she yelled. She could hear footsteps coming towards her. Then it happened her water broke. How old was seen by her side picking her up and carry her to the car, as Jarvis drives them to the hospital. I was there that's contractions Anthony Victor James Stark, on May 29, 1970. He was healthy and strong boy. Then she had him in he arms.

"He's perfect," Howard said. "Our son"

"Apó ton ouranó kai sta váthi tis kólasis. Se diatázo na proodévoun kai na prostatéfsei to paidí sas…" Hades appears next to her, she more the baby where he could see the him. "Parakaloúme prostatéfsei ton… Apókrypsi dynámeis tou… méchri pou pilroún sýntrofó tou." (Please protect him… hide his powers… until he meets his mate.) Hades put his hand on Anthony his eyes close for a moment.

"Was that a lullaby?" Howard ask.

"You can stay that," she said. "He's asleep"

"Belle what happen?"

"My brothers have been sentence to death," she said. "I don't know if there alive or if there dead."

"How many wars have they been in?"

"A lot"

"And how many time have they been shot"

"Countless"

"Then they are alive, I know it," he said. "If it makes you feel better. I'll have shield look into it."

"Thank you," she said.


As the years passed by and they got older something change with Howard. And Belle started another set just after, Tony 6 birthday. He became more and more absorbed into his work, that he either her or Tony. She was in Tony's room on the floor showing him Surefire and when he touched her hand the Flames went out, without any thought on Belle part.

"Mama," Tony said. "Eicha kai pali to moiazei?" (I had the dream again.)

"Really?" Tony shook his head. "Ti ekane moi azei?" (What did she look like)

"Omorfi" (Pretty)

"Omorfi? Opos kai I mama?"(Pretty? Like mommy?)

"Nai," he said. Belle hugs him. (Yes)

"Then you are a very lucky boy aren't you?"

"Yes," he started to laugh and squirm as Belle started to kiss him.

"What are you teaching him?"

"Its Greek," she said. "I learn out as a child."

"When is he ever going to bed that?"

"It's good to know more than one language Howard."

Months later he introduced her to Maria a new maid and Nanny that he hired. It wasn't until weeks later, that she saw Howard in the bed with Maria. It was that very next day, she tricked Howard into signing some divorce papers but not letting him know that it was divorce papers. Then she left taking Tony with her. I'll be leaving a note saying that she took Tony to see some family. They went to Greece. Straight to Zeus's Temple Kama they pray as soon as this week and that was the last time anyone saw him for 5 years.


When they resurface again, it only took her a few weeks to locate them. He didn't say a word not until he put Tony to bed.

"We're divorce?"

"You seem to like it that way," she said. "So how's Maria is she a good fuck?"

"You will not talk about her like that!"

"Why? Because she your whore that you allowed in our bed," Howard slap her. Belle look back at Howard to see him holding his hand. The side of her face was cover in adamantium. "I would think twice before trying to hit me again."

"I want you to leave," he said.

"Find we'll leave"

"Tony staying here"

"I'm not leaving my son with you"

"You act like you have a choice," then she felt a pinch in her neck the world became dark.
