I flew back into a stone wall behind me that collapsed on contact. Her kick had power behind it.
I saw this going differently in my head.
Stupid child. In my avatar version, I'm weaker than my real form. You should have the same weakness as me.
Now you tell me?
Don't let your guard down, we should be physically stronger than any Asgardian.
She got up once more and came back limping to attack me. I hit her with my forearm and she flew off to the rocks nearby. She tried the same move again, but this time she wasn't limping. It seems her leg had regenerated. I didn't have to move a single foot in any of the times she came at me. Little by little her wounds healed, and she came more and more ferociously to attack me. But it was always the same conclusion, she would fly away and crash into another solid wall.
"Are you done?" I asked.
"Aargh!" She charged at me again and I moved this time and with my hand, I grabbed her leg and sent her flying to another of the nearest planetoids.
What should I do now?
HAHAHAHAHA! Aren't you impotent?
You are useless.
Watch out!
She threw a piece of an asteroid at me, and I went flying to the ground behind me.
What do we do now? She ain't listening.
Don't ask me. You're the one in charge, remember?
Useless piece of—
Another gigantic piece of the asteroid came at me and I destroyed it with a single blow of my forearm as I got up.
She's a live one, isn't she?
I dig her.
I know. I can read your mind, remember?
We may as well call it our mind?
Don't be a fool, child. I am going to find a way to undo this on my own.
Good luck, but in the meantime, I have somewhere to be, so can you stop interrupting me?
As you wish.
She jumped in front of me - with two swords in her hands - but this time I didn't move. I allowed her to stifle her rage with everything she had and vent her anger towards me. She pierced me with two swords each time furiously in vain as they only left-wound holes in my armor that regenerated as fast as she could remove her swords from my body. Up to the time, she got tired and sat on the floor.
"That's not doing anything to you, is it?" She queried.
"No." I tried to keep my voice silk and intimidating like Dormammu's when speaking, but she seemed not to care much.
"It could be worse." And the entire time she was with me until now, that's when she first smiled.
"What do you mean?" I said as I walked away with my back turned, trying to prove a point.
"If I'd killed you, I'd be stuck here alone by the looks of it." She groaned.
It would appear that the fight had exhausted her physically.
"What is this place?"
"This is my dimension, The Dark Dimension. Here I can do anything. The dark dimension is the source of my power, which is a place beyond time. It is a strange and hostile universe in which time does not exist in the same way it does within the regular universe."
If I had a face, I would have grinned. Everything was going to shit, but at least something came out of it. I hope it lasts and is not a temporary thing. I turned around to face her once more.
"Why are you telling me the source of your power? What if I betray you and take it from you?" She croaked.
"You can certainly try." I dared.
"If you bow before me and pledge your loyalty to me, I won't have to." Her tone soon changed in between a sassy and provoking one.
"Oh, assuming I would. How do you plan on getting out of here?" I asked.
Her facial expression changed suddenly as her eyes widen, and she stood up immediately.
"I hoped you would know how to exit your own dimension?" She coaxed at me.
"Indeed," I replied the moment I raised my hand, then she reached out and grabbed my hand, stopping me.
"Wait," she walked slowly in front of me, looking at me closely without fear and with a confused face. Her eyes stared at me and quickly sought an answer, an answer she couldn't find, "how do I know I can trust you?"
The answer was something that she would never deduce by herself, or so I thought.
"What would you gain from this?"
"Everything."
After confessing my plan to her, I stretched out my arm again and showed her all the figures floating in space. Humanoid forms covered in shadows with only one red eye where their two eyes were before. Gradually they changed shape and formed again. For some reason, I felt nothing for those poor souls who were now the Mindless Ones. Maybe being inside this body took away my emotions, or maybe I was just always like this.
"These are those who have become one with my dimension and achieve immortality."
"Why am I not turning into one of them?"
"Maybe is because you are already Immortal? Who knows? Who cares?"
"Well, I care! I won't become one of your minions."
"I expected as much."
I placed my hands behind my back like-a-badass. Because why not?
Are you planning on converting her?
You again.
Well, do you?
Perhaps I need allies.
I see.
Come on, help me out here. I need to get out of this place. Tell you what you help me and I help you? Deal?
A favor for a favor?
I'll give you my word and you know I am not lying since we are connected.
Very well. If you want to use my powers — which you already know from your universe — you only need to think, and it will happen like you did when you flew earlier.
That's it?
Yes.
That was easy.
Now, if you excuse me, I have some planning to do.
Wait! What do you want in return? Dormammu? Hello?
...
"Hey! Stop spacing out!" She screeched.
My conscious came back once again, and she seemed to have moved away from me.
"I was contemplating. Now, what is it you truly desire?"
I stare back at her with my arms around my chest.
"Revenge," she strolled back towards my side, "...my brother, Thor, I want him dead."
"Interesting." I grabbed her by the neck with one hand and lifted her with all my strength. Of course, she tried to fight but she couldn't and soon stopped resisting and just screamed as the skin around her eyes changed to dark purple. I dropped her on the floor. She was gasping, and out of breath, she tried to crawl away from me.
"There's nowhere you can hide from me in this place."
She stopped for a moment and stood still before slowly getting up. And attack me again. But a kind of light-green shield formed in her hand and exploded, sending her flying backward. She stood on the ground, looking at her hand in shock.
"What did you do to me!?"
"I gave you a power-up. Your brother right now is too strong for both of us to handle. I gave you the ability to use the Dark Dimension Magic, which is like Eldritch Magic."
"W-What?"
"If I remember correctly, there are three types of energies in this multiverse, Personal energies, Universal energies, and Dimensional energies. Supposedly, you should now be able to use magic by using my dimension as an infinite source."
"You're bluffing. Nothing is infinitely powerful."
"Perhaps, I am. Care to try?"
"No. I want to test my limits."
"Excellent."
"By the way, I already knew of Eldritch Magic, and how to use my energy to use Necromancy, I only needed a source of power like the Eternal Flame to cast it."
"Then, let's focus on how you can open an Inter-Dimensional Gate. Very similar to how sorcerers use Sling Rings; they channel extra-dimensional energy from other dimensions to open a door to a specific place in the Multiverse. Now try to channel the power of my Dark Dimension to your whim."
"Where to?"
"Where do you want to go?"
Hela looked back at me and smiled with a dark, mean smile.
Are you sure about this?
I have something to confess, I like bad girls.
But it's too bad that you don't have a physical body.
Curses.
