Purgatori laughed, she found Superme HYDRA very amusing, maybe she'll keep her around for a while longer if nothing else she can make her laugh. "Because your daughter has been very loyal to me. I'm not above rewarding those that have earned it." this was only one of the many rewards Jessica had earned "Or if I'm in a good enough mood." which was rare but could happen and they would be rewarded with something it just all depended what was going on at the time.
The blood goddess looked over at Viper "Let's just say I'm a very good business woman." She just made some very nice deals with these men in order to get them to work with her what those deals were stayed between her and them. The bigger question is would she keep her word when everything is said and done that remained to be seen, it's not like they could actually do anything to her. By the time they realized they had been used everything would be changed and they wouldn't remember anything. In other words, it could all just be free labor for what she wants done or it might not be it really depended on her mood
"Because none of you seemed to realize the cosmic cube is cracked it's power is draining that is why I brought the others in instead of just using it to change everything. It doesn't have the power to do something so large scale." She waved her hand and a massive alien looking machine with what looked like a chair in the middle that would come into play much later. "I'm sure most of you are aware of the little gifts that have been randomly claiming hosts and the few that already had hosts." She made images of the artifacts appear in front of them, including the one that had once belonged to Superme HYDRA before Jessie had disappeared with it as well as its blue twin. "I have the other artifacts, but we need the one's they have. Once we do, the world is going to get a whole lot better." with that said a number of people walked in carrying the other artifacts, including Jessie "The coin of Solomon, The unknown 13th artifact, The bloodsword, The Wheel of shadows, any my favorite Pandora's box." As she listed off each of the artifacts they were claimed by the machine locking them into their chosen place. "And of course we can't forget the spear of destiny."
Purgatori handed the cube to Jessie "What power is left is yours to use." taking the cube Jessie thought about all the things she could do with it until she settled on something. Using her own powers she brought James down into hell before he realized what was going on Jessie pulled him into a deep kiss the only reason she had done it was just to piss Midori off nothing more than that. She then used the cube to change his appearance and his mind just enough that he wouldn't try to return to his home or Midori at the same time she changed her sons made them older and no longer James children they were now the son's of Anubis another god she had fooled around with. That done, she sent James to earth, no one would know what he looked like or knew where he was other than Jessie and she wasn't telling anyone. The cube turned dark as it died and was no longer of use to anyone.

Supreme HYDRA was growing sick of Purgatori's laughter and how she was constantly amused by Supreme HYDRA and whatever efforts she put forward. This was one of the many reasons why she didn't like immortal beings. They didn't seem to think anything was a threat. "If you see fit to reward me for my good behavior and loyalty at some point, Purgatori, I would rather not be turned into a demon. I would not deny myself power, but I draw the line at being a demon."
A good business woman? Viper raised her eyebrow at that. She was well aware of what that meant. Purgatori always had multiple plans going at one time, whether they were seen or unseen. Viper knew she was a brilliant strategist, but still, the people in this room were not the type you double-crossed without having a cunning backup plan in case things went wrong.
Much of what was said regarding the cube was a surprise, and it made both Viper and Midori wonder if anything in this world and universe had been caused by the leaking cosmic cube. It was a possibility, and one they didn't really like to think about. As for the machine and the artifacts, that did explain the sudden chaos that had been happening on Olympus recently. The only thing that wasn't shocking was the lone chair at the center of the machine. It wasn't hard to figure out who would be sitting there once all the items were assembled. "And how do you expect to get all the artifacts into your possession? The bearers don't seem to keen on giving them up," Viper stated.
Midori paled upon seeing Jessie given the cube. She tried to prepare for the worse to happen, but the results were nonetheless unexpected. Seeing James suddenly there, kissing Jessie as he was changed enraged the goddess. Before she could act, her husband was gone, off to who knows where, and the twins were changed as well. That had been the final straw. Using her speed, and with her emotions getting the better of her, Midori leapt from her her seat and slammed herself into Jessie, stabbing a small golden dagger into her side. It wasn't a killing blow, but it certainly would hurt. Not finished, Midori whirled around, her herald staff growing to become proper bo length as she dealt blow after blow in rapid succession upon the woman's body. Finally, anger receding, she pinned Jessie against the wall. "What did you do with my husband? Where did you send him?" she growled.

"Shame, I think you'd make a wonderfully sexy demon." Was Purgatori worried that Viper would get mad at her over that not really she usually spoke her mind on things unless of course it was something she didn't want anyone to know about then she'll either not say anything or lie. "But if that's what you want so be it." she wasn't going to force anything on the woman unless there was reason for it or she just wanted to get rid of her.
"Their hosts and hosts can still die. More importantly, their heroes and what do heroes love to do? Save people. Which will take care of most of them except for the Angelus and Witchblade hosts. I'll be dealing with them myself." she explained Viper wasn't the only one who could put on a convincing act and like what was said before none of the others had seen her human side which made things all the more easier to deal with. She gave Black Adam a slight nod before looking at the others as he got up and left. "Victor will deal with Circe and her lot while Helspont will deal with Asgard. Adam and Darkseid will deal with the rest while Lucifer keeps what artifacts we do have safe down here until we're ready."
Baal, let Midori attack her, she did block a number of blows before she was pinned to the wall, grinning at her she grabbed a hold of the other woman's wrists. She didn't try and push her away instead she kept her from moving. "Do you know what Baal was the god of before his death?" She waited a few seconds "Give up? Its storms!" She sent a lightning bolt coursing through Midori's body. "Unlike your mother who coddled you your whole life mine taught me how to be smart and out think my enemies." She stepped past Midori stopping to pull out the knife from her side letting it drop to the ground. "If you want your husband back get to your feet and start walking, he's in one of the realms or maybe he's here in hell? Who knows, oh wait I do but after what you did I'm not telling you which one or what he looks like now." she turned to look at her mother for a moment before looking at Midori's "Think of it as the ultimate game of hide and seek and your it." with that she disappeared along with Seth and her sons if Purgatori wanted her for something she'd let her know.

Viper just rolled her eyes as Purgatori continued to tease and flirt with another version of herself. "Would you just like me to take her to your bedroom so you can sleep with her and get it over with?" Was Viper truly mad? No, not really. There had been plenty of times where she had walked in on Purgatori occupying herself with other women. Sometimes, if Viper were in the right mood, she would join in, but that was a rare occurrence. Supreme HYDRA meanwhile just looked unamused. "You haven't turned your little green haired pet into a demon, so why would you do it to me?" she asked, though she really didn't give a damn about the answer.
"Some are heroes, Purgatori, but not all. Sif is hardly one and we know nothing about the one who wields the ice stone," Viper reasoned, though she knew it would fall on deaf ears. But the idea of Victor Von Doom handling a woman like Circe? That amused Viper and she looked forward to seeing such a battle, if there was going to be one. As for Lucifer watching what artifacts they had, she hoped that Purgatori had safeguards in place in case he decided to double cross them all.
The lightning hurt as it coursed through Midori's body. That much was obvious. She was staggered by the power, but refused to fall, not wanting to give Jessie any further pleasure than she already had. She let her blather on and on before finally growing tired of it. "I will find him, Jessie. I will find him and bring back," she said as her would-be sister disappeared. "After all, I like games, contests, searching, and traveling." Hermes had been the god of all those things. "But first…" Midori took her mother by the hand and whisked away to Olympus in the blink of an eye.
Once there, she quickly introduced Ophelia to Circe and asked that she keep her safe while she was away. She would still be her messenger, but her first priority was finding her husband. Remembering Purgatori's threat, she kept her mouth about the plans she witnessed. Giving her mother a kiss on the cheek, Midori's clothes changed, her eyes became hazy with a golden glow, and she was off, running down all the roads in every realm as she searched for her husband.

Purgatori raised an eyebrow before pulling Viper to her "You are the only you I want no one else." Yes, she had slept with other women, but that wasn't about love it was more like a show that she owned them. That was the difference between her and Viper the other woman was more for fighting to get what she wanted Purgatori usually went through the women to get what she wanted. She'd get the women to fall in love with her making it easy to get to their husbands or boyfriends then she'd have whatever it was she wanted be it money or something else. Purgatori had no problems, fighting, but she usually didn't want to draw attention to herself, she wanted to stay unknown for as long as she could. "I think it's time you dropped the whole Greek Goddess thing and come and be by my side full time." She leaned in so only Viper could hear her "I don't trust Midori as far as I can throw her even less so her mother and I want to keep you safe."
"Sif is a hero of Asgard. Just because she doesn't protect the earth doesn't mean she isn't a hero. And we do know who has it. It belongs to one of Circe's time tossed children his name is Dante." Purgatori had her spies watching everything and reporting to her almost every day with what's been going on over there. "And I can easily cut Circe's power in half." She held up a small vial with a bright red liquid inside "By taking her wife out of the picture. She just needs to drink it and Zarda will no longer be herself." Black Adam returned blood splattered on him that belonged to a former host of the Rapture. He walked over and placed the necklace with the other artifacts. "We'll have them all before you know it."
Jessie expanded her home creating a wing for her mother giving her everything she could want or need, the only thing was it was Egyptian. She would pretty much live like a queen while she was here the only thing she would have to learn to deal with was the servants were all women and naked Purgatori's law. Jessie was used to it and the old Egyptian gods didn't think it was anything weird. "I hope you like it and if you need anything just ask someone will bring it to you."

Viper couldn't help but smirk. "Only me? Not three of me together with you in one bed?" she chuckled. "I might manage to make you monogamous after all." That was more of a joke than a reality, but odder things could happen and had happen in their relationship. But she wasn't quite expecting the next thing Purgatori said. "Are you saying you want me to move in with you? To Hell? As another god or a demon?" As for not trusting Midori or her mother, that was an obvious no-brainer, but there was a softness to her voice that Viper had never heard before, or at least not very often. "You're honestly worried, aren't you?" she quietly asked. "I'll do as you ask. Besides, it was getting boring up there anyways."
Closing her eyes and with a roll of her hand, Viper's body shimmered, hair turning from green to black, and a golden orb briefly appeared in her hand before disappearing. That surprised the woman. She didn't think it would just go away like that. "Hopefully they won't notice it's back too soon," she commented before giving Purgatori a look. "I know he's one of Circe's children, but as for what he can do exactly, we are clueless. Unless you have literally had spies following him the moment he dropped out of the sky." That made Viper wonder how much she had been spied on. "As for Sif, last time I checked she wasn't on Asgard, nor Olympus. It's possible she's gone questing for something or just went off to slaughter some damn giants."
The vial of liquid caught Viper's attention. "What does it do, exactly?" If it were anyone else, Viper would also have asked how she would get Zarda to drink it, but that woman enjoyed putting a lot of things in her mouth. "We should prepare for war if the former host of that is still alive and lets others know what's happened," Viper advised. Black Adam may have been splattered with blood, but heroes had an annoying habit of surviving a lot of deadly things.
As for Supreme HYDRA, she didn't mind the Egyptian decor, though the naked female slaves would be something to get used to. Unlike her other self, she was not one to prefer women over men. "It will do for now, but I will admit that I am at a loss of what I can do now. I think the roles have been reversed. You have become the leader and I am the servant." It was a definite change, but she figured it could be something she could get used to, so long as it was her daughter she was helping. "I doubt being a mortal in Hell will be of much use. Tell me what to do, and I will follow your orders, Jessica."

"I am monogamous you just aren't around enough when I'm in the mood." Purgatori wasn't one to cheat, but when she wants sex and her current lover was busy playing good little goddess for a pain in the ass well she had to look elsewhere for her needs to be met because she couldn't always go there. "To Heliopolis as my Apep." Being the goddess of snakes was a much better, fit for her than the goddess of wisdom. "At the moment, no Jessica is keeping Midori busy with her games, but when that's over with there's a chance she'll talk. She will come home one day to find her children and husband dead their souls will be taken to the 8th level of hell. You can't even imagine the torture they'll go through down there."
Purgatori sat watching Viper remove her godhood "I wouldn't worry about them finding out they do know we've been seeing each other for years. They'll probably just think you finally moved in with me." She placed her hand on Viper's chest passing on Apep's powers to Viper. She had a different way of passing on powers a lot better than just orbs where anyone could take one and make themselves gods. "With this going on, of course I have spies up there telling me everything that's going on." She wanted to know what was going on everywhere to make sure everything was going her way. "Sif is on earth with her future wife spending time together." Finding Sif wouldn't be a problem with that rock she stood out like a magic sore thumb.
"Zarda is already mad, this will just make it worse, she'll be too busy lost in her own mind to be any help to Circe. If we're lucky she might even help us." She thought about what Viper had said "How would they know who was behind it? Yes, Adam took it, but they don't know where he went. Besides, if Adam is angry enough he'll probably kill anyone who wanted him by himself." He had killed many after the death of his wife when he started world war III.
"You are not a servant. You are my mother and you don't need to do anything." Jessie sat down on one of the couches hoping her mother would join her "For starters, we aren't in hell this is Heliopolis the home of the gods of Egypt. How about getting to know your grandchildren? And being a grandmother. I'm sure they would love to know more about you and the things you've done."

"I'll make sure I'm around all the time now. And even then, if you wish to have someone join us, depending on who it was, I would not say no." Viper embraced Purgatori, letting go of tensions she didn't know she held, finally able to relax. "Eighth level of Hell? Isn't that set aside for the fraudulent?" Though not well-versed on her Bible anymore, Viper had read Dante's Inferno. For a moment, she shivered, thinking about what horrors would await the children before remembering herself and who she was with. "You're right, I don't want to imagine it."
Receiving Apep's power was not a comfortable thing. Viper's body ached as she was filled with it. Her muscles burned and, rather than there being a flash of light, there was one of darkness. She blinked, opening green eyes that were briefly slitted like a serpents. Her hair was still black, though it now fell to her waist. As for her face, it was still marred, though the scarring was a dark green with gold iridescence. Clad in Egyptian finery, Viper felt more nimble and lithe than ever before. Any aches and pains she had before were gone and if she had been a world class gymnast before, being the goddess of snakes meant flexibility and speed had improved even more. Pulling her into a tight embrace, Viper kissed Purgatori deeply. "I think I like this much more," she smiled, showing sharpened canines. "Would you like me to go after anyone or would you rather I stay by your side and watch?" No matter what Purgatori's answer would be, Viper would be perfectly content with the answer.
Driving the sea goddess mad? She chuckled at the thought. "You will make the queen of the gods frantic with worry. I saw her when she entered Asgard. The woman was haggard, looking decades older than what she does now. She would not eat. She merely wept over the woman she thought dead." Looking around, she saw the room deserted save for the two of them. Walking over to the machine, Viper trailed a hand over it. "Will I be your queen when you remake the world? I know this will only work for one wielder and I do not wish to be forgotten by you." Was she worried about such a fate or being changed by the magic? Absolutely.
"My grandchildren? The ones who are adults now? I hardly know where to start wit them," Supreme HYDRA stated, sitting down next to her daughter. "You know that I'm not the same woman who was your mother. Hell, I am not the same woman you left ten years ago. I am not the type to be a grandmother. I am sure you have told them all about me anyways." Things like family made her uncomfortable. Before it had just been her and Jessie, but now? Now she had three grandchildren to handle and to tell the truth, she did not know where to begin.

"Good, I hate sleeping without my snake around." she kissed Viper's chest before pulling away at what she said "Only if you believe the stories of a mortal who has never actually been down here then yes the eighth level is for the fraudulent. But if you want the truth from someone who has been to all but the ninth level, then no the eighth isn't for the fraudulent it's for the worse of the worse. The ninth level is for the primordial demons the oldest and most powerful not even Lucifer messes with them. Gazing upon a pure blood would kill any who wasn't a demon, unlike the rest of the demon's here they would just drive you mad." Purgatori explained, but Viper didn't have to worry about being driven mad or dying she was protected and the pure bloods stayed on the ninth level.
Purgatori watched as Viper gained her new godhood "It suits you more being the goddess of snakes rather than the goddess of wisdom." she looked Viper over enjoying how Egyptian clothing look so much better on her than Greek. She also knew Viper would be more flexible which could make things fun in the bedroom. With herself having been turning into living blood, she didn't have to worry about pulling something or breaking anything she could make herself just as flexible. And the canines were a plus kind of cute really. "I want you by my side let the other's do the dirty work. No need for them to know about you just yet."
"And now she'll have to deal with a woman whose mind is more broken then she's worth keeping around. Should make things fun to watch Zarda babble on about nothing and unable to raise a hand to help the others in this coming war." Purgatori followed after Viper wrapping her arms around her "That chair isn't for me, it's for the codex of the universe she will sit there and die there then everything will be remade. You won't be my queen you will be my Empress and we will rule this world together."
"You get to know them like any other person would. Yes, they do know about you they respect you. They have asked many times if they would ever get to meet you to them, you are a legend the most badass person alive." The only reason why they haven't said anything now was because Jessie didn't want to overwhelm her mother. "I know we're different than we were before hell I almost married another god. Anubis. I thought it was true love until one day I came home to find him with some blonde bimbo bent over the table. Never saw him after that probably ran off with her." she laid her head on her mother's shoulder "After that mess I met Seth and started over but never got close to him like I had with Anubis. Even less so now that he seems to think I'm going to have ten thousand of his children. As far as I can tell that wasn't a joke." In other words Jessie was a single mother much like her own mother. Yes Seth did help her from time to time when he wasn't off doing whatever it was he did.

"I promise that you'll never sleep without your snake again. I'm through with pretending to be good," Viper responded, leaning in to catch Purgatori's lips. She stopped when told what the eighth level of Hell was for. Did she think sending children there was a bit extreme? Perhaps just a tad, but then again, perhaps she would be able to convince Purgatori and Jessie to send them to someplace else, or put them to better use as slaves. "Snakes are wise in their own right. We see things and know things that others don't normally acknowledge," she commented softly. "I won't lift a finger until you tell me to do so, I promise." She'd rather not ruin the plans that were already set into motion, so Viper decided that she would be good and let Purgatori do as she liked.
She smiled as the red skinned woman wrapped her arms about her, wiggling her body ever so slightly. "I'll keep my hands clean and I will happily be your empress in this new world of yours." In fact, she was looking forward to see this new world that was planned. "Can we keep Zarda and her wife as pets or slaves?" she asked, turning around in Purgatori's grasp in order to deliver a deep kiss upon her lips. Talk about world domination had always put Viper in the right mood.
"You've made me a legend in your children's eyes?" Supreme HYDRA smiled at that, though she tried to ignore the prideful feeling that was bubbling up in my chest. Holding Jessie close, she tried her best to reassure her about decisions. "Men, even gods, make horrible, horrible mistakes. Don't worry about Anubis and the women he chases. You are better than anything he deserves and desires. As for Seth.. perhaps I can persuade him not to make you bear so many children." Jessie knew how persuasive her mother could be, but perhaps it would be different, seeing as how she was mortal and Seth wasn't. "I'm glad you are safe and well, Jessie. I'm happy to be a grandmother also. I missed my little girl," she told her softly. Jessie was the only one Supreme HYDRA would dare show this soft kindness to. No one else had seen this side of her.

Purgatori nodded "Being good doesn't suit you. You're so much better being a naughty girl." the blood goddess didn't have to be a mind reader to know Viper didn't agree with what she planned on doing to Midori's children should she run her mouth to Circe and the others. She'll be rethinking that if this goes sideways and she's being punished by that whore. "They are. Just don't be fooled by those who pretend to be your family, they aren't and they won't care about you." She hoped Viper didn't believe that her time tossed children actually cared about her because they didn't Purgatori could see that they were just humoring the poor woman. "Good so many more fun things you can be doing with those fingers." she smirked.
"Very good you naughty girl." She said to the wiggling snake in her arms. It wasn't really that hard to get an idea of how the world would look if you have seen where Purgatori lived now that's pretty much how it'd look when she took over the world only on a much larger scale. "You can do whatever you want with those two. You could beat them every day if you wished." while kissing Viper the blood goddess picked her up and carried her over to the table sitting her down on it. All this talk got Purgatori in the mood to be naughty.
"Of course I did. You did many great things no one else was ever able to do even here." she wrapped an arm around her mother "I know...I just want to find him and castrate him for hurting me so bad." she figured that would be a fate worse then death "I nearly died having Seth's first children I don't want to think what would happen to me if I had anymore." she held her hand out a glowing gold ball of energy appeared in her hand before she pressed it to her mother's chest causing it to disappear inside her. "You've done so much I think you've earned the right to be immortal." Purgatori gave Jessie the right to make people immortal after everything she had done for her, but Jessie never used it in all the years she had the power to do so until now. This was probably the only time Jessie would use it.
