OCC Hela
I own nothing that is marvel.
"Thoughts"
"Speech"
(New York general hospital 1970 Howard Stark POV)
Howard Stark paced one the hallway outside of his wife's hospital room. Maria had been in there for so long but the doctor assured him it was normal for giving birth. He just wanted it to be over so he could go home, he had work to do. Another loud yell and then all he could hear was panting then a nurse came out and told him he could go in.
The first thing he saw was his exhausted wife holding a small bundle in her arms smiling down at there child. Walking around to her side looking at the baby he saw a small tuff of dark brown hair and brown eyes just staring.
"Isn't she beautiful Howard." Maria said with a huge smile holding the bundle closer.
He was under the Impression baby's cried more but he was not complaining. Locking eyes with his own daughter he noticed her mouth curve down wards as she looked at him almost as of the was trying to scowl at him. Maria didn't notice and just kept smiling as the doctor came over with a clipboard.
"Congratulations Mr and Ms Stark you have a healthy baby girl." The doctor said going through some papers.
"When can Maria leave with the kid?" Howard said trying to move this along.
The doctor looked at Maria then me "she should be good to go in a few hours no problem." He said then left the room.
"Howard! Come over here and hold your daughter!." She yelled while holding out the baby to me.
I took her in my arms getting one more good look at her and she still was frowning at me almost like she somehow already knew me and disliked me. I try and smile at her but as soon as my lips curve upward she turns her head away.
"Did she just ignore me?" I thought as I looked at the side of her head and handed her back to Maria.
"Well Maria ill just go make sure everything ready." Howard said taking a brisk walk out of the room.
That baby scared him a little for some strange reason.
(Stark mansion night Hela POV)
"At least my new parents don't seem terrible." thought the only person in the room.
In a large room with a crib we see a just born Antonia Maria Stark staring at the ceiling of her room. But that was not her original name just the name of the person she was reincarnated into. Her first name from her first life was Hela Odinsdottir, goddess of death, and Odin's executioner.
All she could do was lay there this was not her first reincarnation and it may not be the last but like all the lives she lead she will try to enjoy it the best she could.
That was the deal she agreed to so she could leave her imprisonment on helheim. About 500 years in and she would have done anything to leave. Then a man in a robe appeared out of nowhere and said he could get me out. Only problem is I would have to leave my power behind and be reborn again and again on Midgard as a human until my power returned on Odin's death. She had experienced a lot and lived many different lives and seen life from many different perspectives. So she supposed she learned, always trying to live new ways.
"Ugh why can't Odin just drop dead already it's been so long." She was not sure what she would do once she got her power back but the first thing was to go to Asgard and get her giant battle wolf. She may not care what happened to Asgard itself but her fluffy boy was coming back with her.
She stoped caring about if she ruled anything after her tenth go at life. What was the point of ruling people who were scared and hated her? Seemed like to much work and a waste of her time. But Odin would never trust she changed her mind on the whole 'slaughter everyone who opposed me' attitude.
But that train of thought was for another day being born not five hours ago was exhausting so sleep sounded good for her newborn born body.
(Stark mansion 10 years later Hela's POV)
There were 3 things Antonia stark knew for sure.
One Maria Stark was a saint no question about it. She could handle Howard on his more than often bad day and Toni when she being kind of a brat. Still smiling and loving the whole time.
Two Howard was a huge asshole with an obsession for blond guys named Steve Rogers. As proven by when Maria would try to set up family time for them all only for him 5 minutes in to say this was a waste of his time and hop on a plane and spend 2 weeks looking for the American flag lookalike.
At least she stayed and played piano with Maria having a grand old time with her new mother.
Three being a genius had a lot of ups and downs. She may have had an advantage being a millennium old goddess but when you reincarnate you always get some new skills. This one came with an easy way of learning engineering and science like it was reading a picture book. That was an up the down was everyone always expected the best from you and anything less was viewed with dissatisfaction and judgment.
Except from Maria she loved me no matter what.
But life for her as a Stark was fine she had great mother and did not want for anything. being a family richer then some country's was fun. She loved going on shopping trips with her mother even if they bored her most of the time. She also enjoyed reading the many books of the Starks personal library even if Howard dislikes her being in there when he needs a book. But life was good she could say this was one of the best lives she has lived so far.
Oh and how could she almost forget the nicest butler in the world Edward Jarvis the man who was dealing with Howard Stark longer than any of them. He was a calming presence among the house that always seemed to know what to do to lift anyone's spirits. He and his wife Ana were some of the best people around and he acted like a stand in father when hers was off in the arctic playing search party.
"Toni!" Mom yelled from the kitchen that women sure had a set of lungs.
"Yes mother?" I yelled back making my way down the vast hallways of the mansion.
"Ana made some cookies so hurry while they're warm!" She yelled back making me hurry a little faster.
"Don't yell in my house!" Howard said probably in his study grumping around.
"Howard don't be a pill and come spend time with your family." Mother said trying to coax him out.
"Im busy." Was his last reply as I walked into the kitchen.
"Well then more for us isn't that right Toni?" She said smiling at me.
"Of course mother I would hate to share." I replied in an even tone of voice.
Ya life was good
(Grave yard 1991 Hela's POV)
What was that old saying cherish what you have before it's gone. Because that seemed to hit home more than ever as they lowered the casket's of my parents into there graves a trail of tears rolling down my cheeks.
She was home from MIT for Christmas break spending some time with Maria before Howard and her went on vacation somewhere. They were saying there farewell when Howard made some off handed comment about how she was being immature and they got into a huge fight that she could not even remember. They left with me hugging mom for what I did not know was for the last time her waving goodbye as they drove off.
Then I got a call from the police not 6 hours later saying there was an accident on the road involving my parents. I rushed over to the hospital where they were and they were pronounced dead at the crash sight. They told me my father was drunk while driving swerved and hit a tree killing both of them in an instant. I'm not ashamed to say I cried over my mother and cursed my father for killing her if I had my magic I'd bring him back just to kill him.
So here I was standing in a grave yard over my parents graves staring as they filled them over with dirt with my father's business partner next to me.
"Take all the time you need to mourn." Obadiah Stane said walking away from her after patting me on the solder.
Apparently he was to run the company till her 21st birthday when she was to inherit the shares of Stark industry's her father willed her, guess he didn't hate her as much as she thought.
Walking over to my best friend from MIT James Rhodes and his mother she immediately wrapped me in a hug saying it would be alright roadie joining in sayin how sorry he was for me. This helps but I'll always miss my mom.
(Las Vegas Caesars palace 2008 Roadie POV)
I watched the crowd as the intro for the award ceremony played getting ready to give Toni her award hoping she was ready to give a speech on what an honor it was to get an Apogee award.
"Now to present the award Stark industry's military liaison James Rhodes." The intro ended prompting me to walk to the podium.
"It is a distinct pleasure to give my friend and great mentor this years Apogee award to miss Toni Stark." The crowed starts to clap and I start to look for Toni but she is nowhere to be found. Stane stands up making his was to the podium and says something about how she is always working but I know that's probably some BS.
Making my way to the casino floor I just look for the biggest crowed where she will most likely be I see her playing craps with scantily clad women around her. It was no secret she swung both ways not that she cared if anyone knew but this was putting a hat on a hat.
(She looks like Hela but with dark brown hair and light brown eyes)
"You are unbelievable." Getting her attention from the table she looks at me surprised to see I'm here.
"Oh they roped you into this." She said in practically a monotone voice she had adopted ever sense her parents funeral.
"They did not have to rope me into anything, they said you would be honored if I presented you with this." I said handing the glass award over to her.
"I am honored, not like I have any of these floating around." She states with a small smile grabbing it away rolling the dice in her other hand.
"Blow for good luck?" She says holding up the dice for me. I slap them out of her hand and onto the table rolling a snake eyes.
"Well that's over, terrible luck you got there lieutenant colonel Rhodes." She says which is practically laughing for her.
"Don't be late tomorrow." Trying to remind her of the weapons presentation we where going to.
"You wound me Roadie when have I ever been late?" She says acting like it was absurd even though it's happened a hundred time's before.
I give her a look that says she can't bullshit me and she gives me an amused look back. "Just try not to be late."
She nods and walks away I make my way to my car and I see her jump into a limo with a blond women knowing she would definitely be late tomorrow.
(Toni Starks Malibu house next mourning Toni's POV)
Waking up next a blond reporter that was slamming me in the paper was not one of the best ideas I have had but she was attractive. Untangling myself from her making my way to the kitchen at 6 am to get coffee after throwing on whatever was laying around which happened to be an AC/DC T-shirt and some sweat pants. Making my way down to my workshop/lab to get a start on some projects letting Pepper deal with the naked women I left in my room.
Odin and Howard always hated that I liked women as much as I liked men but they could shove it I stoped caring about that stuff along time ago. Moving over to the holo interface pulling up some work and blasting some rock music over the speakers. after a couple of hours of tinkering was fun for me in this life held a special place in my heart.
Speaking of special place in my heart I hear the glass door open to the lab and the click clack of heals moving at me knowing Pepper was less than enthusiastic about getting rid of my late night sexscapades. Instantly the music goes silent making me look over to her.
"I took out your trash miss Stark." Ouch she was using miss Stark so she was not happy hopefully I can get her to relax before I leave.
"A bit harsh don't you think Pep?" I said trying to lighten the mood.
"You did not have to deal with it so you have no room to say anything Toni." She said looking at her tablet. At least we where back to Toni.
"Sorry Pep bit you know how I am terrible at the goodbyes and all that." Again trying to get her to smile.
It did not work as she just ignored me in favor of bringing up my schedule going over it with a raised eyebrow.
"You were supposed to leave for the airport an hour and 30 minutes ago." She states looking at me like I am an idiot.
"Ya but it's my plane so I'm technically not late." This also did not amuse her as she just stared at my some more.
"Also what do you want to do with the very overpriced art you what to buy, you know the Jackson Pollock you were biding on?" She brings up looking over to me.
"Buy it and stick it some youth center in the city." I told her, I remember that Pollock dude he was a jackass serves him right if his work is just hanging somewhere that's not an art museum.
"Ok now that that's settled go get ready before James calls and asks where you are instead of your plane that should have left close to 2 hours ago and be carful." She says poking me to getting me to move.
Finally walking to the stairs doing as she asked giving her a small smile "it's just a weapons demonstration what's the worst that could happen?."
