I don't own the Incredible Hulk, this is a fan fiction only.
The Red King couldn't possibly be happier than at this very moment. The threat to his rule would be taken care off in a swift and efficient manner. Sure he had to use the spike once more and his shadow found out the truth of her family's death. In the end it did not matter to him at all, since the only one to be able to oppose him was now dead, the Sakaarson or otherwise called green monster was dead and he could not wait till he had him as a trophy on his wall.
The prisoners arrived looking like the had lost all hope of living and right next to him was the hover platform carrying the one and only green monster's dead remains. He switched his on board communication link and decided to let the people hear the wonderful news from him.
"People I am very happy to tell you that the traitors are in custody. You do not need fear for your safety as they will be dealt with in an efficient and crowd pleasing manner. The public execution of these traitors will be available for all to enjoy. The only sad thing is that their ring leader will not be executed with his followers. After all you can't kill that which is already dead."
The Red King wanted to get a look at the face of the green monster so that the people could see the look of anguish in his face. Instead he felt hand grab hold of him and Bruce's eyes opened and looked at his confused face. "It seems that the news of my demise was not entirely accurate. I however can't say the same about you."
Bruce ripped off the shield off the armor and threw him against a wall. "How is this possible, you were supposed to be killed by my bomb. Nothing could have survived that except an oldstrong and you are not even from this planet." Bruce smiled at him and walked slowly to where he was.
"Atomic fire is something that knows me as well as if I was her own child. I survived things that have killed gods. Your little firecracker didn't even give me a tan. I will however tell you that spike you tried to infest me with was painful for about twenty minutes. I had worse pain from food poisoning. "
The Red King didn't like the sound of what he just heard. He tried everything his armor had on it, blasters, mini missiles and even a full blast from his own flame thrower that made the one the death's head guards look like a kitchen lighter. Nothing worked and Bruce was not going to stop coming towards him.
The Red King had to use the strength augmentation on his armor to fight the green monster hand to hand but that didn't stop Bruce from tearing the armor to pieces. He slowly and methodically stripped him of his armor. The people could not believe what they were seeing. The formerly believed invincible Red King was being defeated by the green monster like it was nothing at all.
"Tell them the truth about the Spike or I will." Bruce held him by his neck with one hand. The Red King fearing the worst confessed that the spike were a parasitic lifeform he created to help him appear to be the Sakaarson and accomplished his ambition of ruling the world for his own personal enjoyment.
The people who heard this felt betrayed and those that were once loyal to the Red King now wanted nothing more than to see the very same man they were loyal to die horribly for what he had done. Bruce smiled as the people called for his execution and the immediate release of the supposed traitors.
The Red King had however other ideas and he activated all the obedience disk he had planted in every armor his entire military was wearing. Immediately he ordered them to kill the traitors and the green monster. With a flick of her wrist Caiera released every single one of her friends and they all attacked the guards knocking them out and removing the armor chest plates freeing them form the control of the disk.
The Red King knew that he was going to die and if the strength of the man holding was any indication he would die horribly. He begged, pleaded and even cried as he swore that he would live the rest of his days in his service and he would be his slave to command. He only asked for one thing over and over again and that was for him not to kill him.
Bruce smiled and looked at the crying mess the tyrant was. "Please Hulk, don't be like me. Please for all that is holy don't kill me. Please I beg you don't kill me. I want to live. Everyone deserves a second chance don't they? I deserve the chance to redeem myself."
Bruce could no longer stand the cries of the fool so he looked at him one final time. With a cold glare in his eyes he smiled. "I am not the one you need to be afraid off. I will not kill you, the pleasure of seeing you punished for your crimes is not mine. It belongs to someone else and she will decide your fate."
Bruce tossed him in front of Caiera and now he was truly scared for his life. He had unleashed the very thing that killed her entire village and he even told her showing he had no remorse about doing it. "Caiera you are my second, my shadow you can't kill me. You swore your loyalty to me and me alone. You can't abandon your honor and kill me. I know you and you will not be able to kill me."
Caiera looked for something in her belt and as she took hold of a small pouch she too smiled. "You don't need to fear me. I will not stain my hands with your putrid blood. The thing you need to fear is your legacy." As the pouch was opened and the contents come out and began to fall on his hand. The Red King could not believe what it was, it was a spike pod in perfect condition and he was infected the minute it touched his skin.
The people cheered as they heard him cry in pain as the spike infection took hold and spikes began to grow from his body in such a horrifically painful way. He ran outside of the arena where he was and called for every Death's head guards. When the first of the units arrived he ordered that they go into the arena and killed everyone there.
Citron having linked with them upgraded their AI programming to self aware analysis status. They all analysed the order and decided that eliminating the spike infection was more important than to follow any other order at the moment. In horror the Red King watched as his own death's head guard turned their flame throwers on him and burned him to ash in a matter of seconds.
The people were happy that he suffered the same fate many of their loved ones had been forced to endure. The Death's head guards came to the arena and kneeled in front of Citron as their new central AI prime. If Citron had one question it would be if the warm and tender feeling he was experiencing was the thing they called happiness. He did ask Bruce and he smiled and told him it was. He went further and told him it was an emotion everyone should also get the chance of feeling too.
Citron was already warbound but now he swore that he would help Bruce to promote the safety and happiness of the people on the planet till the moment he was no more. Bruce was happy to hear it. He asked him to send his units and found a single unfertilized egg from a queen native.
Citron and the guards looked everywhere and the initial suspicions was correct. Spike had killed all the females of the Natives and thus all the future Queens. So when they found the egg they brought it to Bruce. Bruce using the equipment in the Red King's former lab he devised a way to synthetically spread his blood across most of Sakaar. The vegetation would begin to grow immediately and the planet would become a garden world in a few months.
The other project was to save the Natives and to find his friend Miek someone who would make him happy too. The process didn't take more than a few days and Miek after a long time met the female that his friend managed to save from the foolishness of the now dead Red King.
The female turned out immediately fell in love with Miek and so did he. He and her were some very happy natives. The two left to form their own little hive. The day the left they looked at Bruce and Miek had to say his farewells. "Miek never dreamed that Houlku would do so much for Miek. Miek will forever be grateful to Houlku for all the things he has done for Miek. The thing is Miek needs to know why he did so much for Miek?"
Bruce smiled at him and told him. "We are hive aren't we Miek? Why do you need to ask why I was willing to help you brother? Be sure to come back to my wedding. I can't very well have my brother miss my happiest day now can I?"
Miek jumped up and his mate was smiling as she saw her mate hug the big Green man. "Miek will be there Houlku. You can always count on your brother Miek to be there for Houlku and his hatchlings."
Caiera and Bruce indeed lived many days what you might call dating. Finally he asked her to marry him and as she gave him a bone breaking hug she accepted to being his wife. Hiroshim became the head of the shadow order and thus head priest. He was the one to conduct the wedding and the coronation of the new King.
Laveen would eventually marry with Eleora and they both would serve in some capacity in the government Bruce began to make. Laveen would be in charge of the military and Eleora would be in charge of the civilian law enforcement division. The two planned to marry a few days after their friend Bruce. They simply didn't want to steal their friends moment.
Korkus was made chief guardian and manager of all mineral deposit mines on the planet. Thanks to his people's technology mining was conducted in an environmentally safe manner and he eventually found a way to create more of his species thanks to his friend and brother Bruce Banner. The people that had been once the plague of the stars had found a home, a home they would protect to their dying breath.
Caiera looked stunning in her new armor and Hulk looked rather handsome in his own suit of armor. He did complain that he felt like a howler monkey in a tin can. Caiera told him that the only thing he needed to really worry about is if she found him cheating on her. "If I find my husband has been keeping another Lover. I swear that there is no stone in the underworld that will save you from my wrath."
Bruce smiled at her and pulled her close to him. "We are not even married and you are already thinking the worst of me. Trust me my beloved wife I would never betray you." Bruce was about to kiss her when he heard someone clear his throat by pretending to cough. "Bruce, you can kiss her all you want but that is after the ceremony."
This caused everyone watching them laugh as they saw them both blush. The ceremony was beautiful and very moving. Caiera would remember this day as the day she finally found the love of her life and was the happiest woman on Sakaar. "Now that is taken care off we need to proceed to the coronation."
Bruce didn't quite know about this. "Are you sure that you want me to be king? The last one was not exactly good for the people. Actually he was simply not good at all." Caiera smiled and asked her husband why was he hesitant.
"People have called me a monster most of my life. Now you want me to lead your world. I moved from one fight to the next and for once in my life I have no clue as to what I should do next? "
Caiera held him close and she smiled at him." You are the Sakaarson. You saved the people, brought life back to our barren world, and have made so many happy. Don't worry so much husband. You will not have to do everything alone. I and the warbound will always be there to help you. We are all in this together and I will always be there to help you. "
The day ended with Bruce ascending and accepting his rightful place as the next king of Sakaar. The one that everyone once called Hulk, the green monster, even Houlku was not the benevolent Green King and by his side the White Queen. Hiroshim could not be happier to see that the prophesy was being fulfilled at long last.
