Hild Takes Manhattan: A Senshi Muyo Supplement
Part Four: Intervention
With Silvermane now on board, Hild could now feel confident that Kingpin's position would not come under serious threat while he was busy taking care of her objectives. The terms were simple. Neither party would participate or support an attack upon the other for the duration of the current crisis plus one year. In exchange, Silvermane and his daughter would have eternal youth for as long as they lived. While Kami had initially strongly opposed this, Hild had calmly pointed out that in the grave circumstances ahead, compromises and deals needed to be made and she also noted that she fully intended to balance the tables with a favor or two going to certain of Kami's champions. (Although not at her expense.) In a separate but related matter was the negotiation between Deadpool and Silvermane in which Deadpool settled for an Abyssinian Sorrel Silver Kitten to satisfy his list of demands earlier. The much shaken Silvermane was left very puzzled but hardly in a position to refuse.
Deadpool's antics aside. What the Mistress of Niflheim now planned would; infact, be an important boon to the forces of good but Hild was certain that the recipients of her blessing would feel anything but blessed by the gifts she was to give them. First though she would have to send Deadpool off on an errand. It was one suited to his ability and should provide the crazed mercenary with sufficient destruction and challenge but as important, it would get him out of the way for a bit. Her next objective required a more surgical approach so while she headed for Stark International, Deadpool was off to nearby Westchester.
"Have fun dear!" Hild smiled as she sent him off to play with old friends.
"Oh boy! This is going to be just like old times!" He called back as he went merrily on his way.
She smiled fondly knowing someone was about to have an awful day. That carried same for those she was about to visit. For even heroes are molded from imperfect clay and their enemies would do the utmost to exploit their faults. For example: Tony Stark; genius billionaire industrialist, known to a select few as Iron Man. He was known to even more as a notorious drinker and womanizer. It seemed unlikely even Hild could do much about his weakness for a beautiful woman... Except exploit it to her own ends of course. Actually she had two souls who needed her help. One was about to hit rock bottom. The other just might continue free-falling indefinitely she mused. To facilitate her access to Stark, Hild adjusted her appearance becoming a blonde haired, blue eyed woman an inch shy of six feet tall and with formidable physique. In this guise she confidently strode into Stark Tower. She approached the information desk.
"I need to speak with Miss Potts."
"Ah... Yes Miss Danvers. She's in her office."
"Thank you Steven. Is Stark in?"
"Yes ma'am. He left instructions not to be disturbed."
"What else is new?" She observed sardonically. "Thanks." She smiled briefly and then resumed her mask after implanting a hypnotic suggestion that he forget having seen her. Taking the elevator all the way up to the 89th floor, she walked into the office of one Pepper Potts, overworked keeper of the erratic genius that was Tony Stark.
Pepper looked up at her approach and managed a tired smile. "Sorry Carol... Tony's locked down in his workshop."
"That's all right Pepper. I really need to talk to you... In private."
Pepper nodded and offered a seat as she closed her office door. "So...?" She invited her guest.
Hild smiled and peered into Pepper's eyes. Even a good and strong soul could be caught off guard. Relax Pepper. I'm not going to harm you. You are going to help me help Tony and Carol both. I'm going to see Tony now. In the meantime I want you to make a phone call for me... Then you will go home and go to sleep. When you wake up you will feel sinfully wonderful and full of energy and you will have no memory of today except that you deserve a raise and you need an assistant... Don't worry I'll send her to you later. Hild instructed her entranced prey. Pepper nodded compliantly and reached for the phone.
"Carol Danvers please... This is Pepper Potts..."
Hild smirked and reformed her image into the exact form of Pepper's. With that she slipped out of the office and headed for Tony Stark's workshop. Upon arriving she paused to announce herself... or rather Pepper's self before entering.
"Tony?"
"Ah... Pepper..." He said raising a martini to his lips. "I thought I said no calls... You know...?"
"You did sir."
"I mean, no calls, no interruptions.. Cause I'm like super busy right now..." It was amazing how a man whose breath smelled that strong of gin could manage such a facade of cohesiveness.
"Yes sir... I know that."
"So... why are you here...?" He asked with no real concern for the answer.
"You need me Tony." 'Pepper' grinned.
