Meanwhile, in the town, a young Captain with long, blond hair, blond beard and a horse walk around Paris trying to find the Palace of Justice. It's where Thanos is most of the time. But this young Captain is Captain Thor who has just come home from war. He's been away for some time. So long that he doesn't recognize anything around him. While trying to find the Palace of Justice, he sees three Gypsies dancing and playing instruments. The two dancing Gypsy girls are (Y/N) and Maddie. Sisters. Maddie is (Y/N)'s younger sister. She has brown hair, brown eyes, tan skin and glasses which she had to find.

You can't always find glasses that are right for your eyesight. (Y/N), however, had (H/L) (H/C) hair, (E/C) eyes, (S/C) skin and was quite a beautiful woman along with her sister. They were dancing to earn money for everyone in the Court of Miracles. Home of the Gypsies. Thor put some money in a hat that was displayed to pay the Gypsies. Thor noticed Maddie and really took a liking to the young sister. Unfortunately, a Gypsy boy warned them that guards were coming so they ran for it. (Y/N) took the hat full of money and ran but some fell out.

Maddie took it from her sister and quickly grabbed the coins but some guards caught her claiming Maddie stole the money when she earned it. The sisters knocked them down before running for it. Thor saved them from the guards by moving his horse and having him sit on one of them. One of the guards threatened Thor but he revealed his sword and armour. That's when they recognized him and took him to the Palace of Justice where Thanos was having someone whip the old Captain of the Guard.

Thanos saw Thor, "Ah, so this is the gallant Captain Thor, home from the wars."

"Reporting for duty, as ordered, sir," Thor said respectfully.

"Your service record precedes you, Thor. I expect nothing but the best from a war hero of your calibre."

"And you shall have it, sir. I guarantee it."

"Yes. You know, my last captain of the guard was, um, a bit of a disappointment to me."

A whip-crack and a scream disrupt Thanos. Thor appeared startled at the crack.

"Well, no matter," Thanos said, "I'm sure you'll whip my men into shape."

"Uh, thank you, sir, uh, very, uh, trem- uh, a tremendous honour, sir," Thor said being polite.

They walk and talk in an open area.

"You've come to Paris in her darkest hour, Captain," Thanos said, "it will take a firm hand to save the weak-minded from being so easily misled."

"Misled, sir?" Thor asked curiously.

"Look, Captain. Gypsies. The gypsies live outside the normal order. Their heathen ways inflame the peoples' lowest instincts, and they must be stopped."

"I was summoned from the wars to capture fortune tellers and palm readers?"

"Oh, the real war, Captain, is what you see before you. For twenty years, I have been taking care of the gypsies, one by one," On each of the last three words, Thanos crushes one of three ants on a tile, "and yet, for all of my success, they have thrived," he flips the tile over, revealing scores of ants scurrying around underneath, "I believe they have a safe haven, within the walls of this very city. A nest, if you will. They call it the Court of Miracles."

"What are we going to do about it, sir?"

Thanos slams the tile back down upside down, and turns it, crushing the remainder of the ants.
