AT ONE POINT FAR BACK IN TIME, the Eternals were a mighty group of well- known heroes that saved Earth from dangerous creatures called Deviants. Ordered by their creator, Arishem, to carry out a mission without getting too involved with human evolution.

That order, in the end, broke the Eternals apart. Maybe it was expected that a certain group of four stuck together all these years apart. Venus, Medea, Anahera, and Angélique had always been extremely close.

"Angè! What did I tell you about leaving puppets in the windows!" Venus sighed as she walked into the shared house of four. "It's not my fault the neighbors are scared so easily!" Angèlique called back from the living room.

The four of them lived in New Zealand, in the small town of Tokomoru Bay, Gisborne. The people there were kind-hearted and gentle, but boy, did they know how to party. The four women found a home there, with a beach outside their back door. A peaceful existence.

"Can the two of you shut up! I'm on the phone to Sersi!" Anahera called out from her small office and Venus huffed as she dropped down onto the couch beside Angélique, stealing the shorter women's pack of cookies.

"Rude." Angè huffed and the goddess smiled at her innocently as she took a bite out of the stolen snack. The door flew open once again, a tanned woman walking through the door with a sigh, carrying bags of groceries.

"Can someone give me a hand?" Medea huffed as she walked through to the kitchen, placing the bags on the island. "No." Both Venus and Angélique denied, causing the tanned woman to huff as she walked over to them, and pushed them both off the couch.

"Fuck!" Angè huffed as Venus landed on her and the dimpled woman rolled her eyes as she pushed herself off of the shorter woman. "Now help me." Medea ordered before walking back out the door. "This is bullying. I'm calling Ajak." Venus grumbled as she got up, walking out the door.

Angélique smirked to herself as she grabbed the bag of cookies that she now had all to herself, but the feeling of her heart speeding up made her groan. "Venus, fuck off! I'm coming!"

-_-_-_-_-

Later on in the day, Venus, Medea, and Angélique were sitting down watching one of Kingo's movies as Anahera made them dinner. They had a roster for pretty much everything thanks to the short-haired woman, who liked things to be in order.

"Damnit! Angé, come and get this damn puppet in the window before I burn it!" Anahera yelled out from the kitchen, and Venus snorted as she looked to Angélique with a smug expression, plopping a grape from her bowl into her mouth. "Fuck you, leave my puppets alone.... and they're dolls!" The short woman yelled back.

"Bitch, just move them. The neighbors are terrified enough of you as it is." Venus pointed out as she covered her mouth to keep the others from seeing the food in her mouth— but Angé crossed her arms stubbornly, making no movement to save her dolls. The smell of burning plastic caught everyone's attention.

Venus and Medea shared a wide-eyed look, as the both of them rushed to the kitchen, finding Anahera holding a lit lighter to the doll as she stood over the trash can.

"That better not be my doll, or I'll fucking cut you!" Angélique warned from the living room and Venus groaned, placing her bowl of grapes on the bench.

"If you'd stop leaving them in the fucking windows, I wouldn't burn them!" Anahera yelled back and Medea huffed. "Both of you shut the fuck up and deal with your shit! I'm missing Kingo movie time!" The tanned woman huffed.

"I agree." The dimpled woman nodded, earning a glare from both Anahera and Angélique. "Shut up, V!" The two huffed in unison and Venus glared between them. "Both of you, eat shit." The dimpled woman scowled.
