Captain Marvel: My Mother (BOOK II)

Chapter 41

“ It is not flesh and blood, but heart which makes us fathers and sons. "

        – Johann Friedrich Von Schiller

(Paris, France: 3:30 AM)

After the elderly half-Kree woman was put to sleep in her room, the Kree-Lizard hybrid sleeplessly spent time sitting on the rooftop and thinking about so many things. His father descended from the skies and walked over to his son after he spent time monitoring.

" Master, is that how you observe the entire planet? " Amnon curiously asked and instantly stood-up. 

" I have been doing it for several centuries, son, " Methu-Selah smiled and stood beside him. " Ever since I got enlisted back in the Kree Imperial Army until now. "

" So, you put your pure dedication out of this, " he said and changed his topic. " I have a lot of questions for you. " 

" Go on, Amnon, " his father nodded and smiled. " Take your time in throwing me what you have in mind. " 

Amnon-Selah spent a long silence and deeply thought of some enquiries to his father. It took so much time when the Kree Eternal patiently waited for him. 

" So, first question, how old are you? " 

" In Kree or Earth years? " 

" Earth years, " the Kree-Lizard hybrid intently smiled. 

" Is it normal to ask a man how old he is? " his father grinned and chuckled. " That seems too impolite and ridiculous to do that. "

" Just for curiosity's sake. I didn't mean to…"

" Fine, " the blue skinned man heavily sighed. " I am around 1,900 years old. "

" Okay, it's fair enough that you have experienced a lot and gained such great wisdom. " 

" Go ahead, ask me anything. "

Amnon scratched his scaly chin and nodded, " Right. Second question, why are the Kree and the Skrulls long time enemies?  Do they have a chance to reconcile or something? " 

" Son, that is a good question, " Methu-Selah nodded and took a deep sigh. " The Skrulls were once peaceful beings who wanted to keep in contact with various races for trade and alliance. Because of that terrible mistake of our race, the Kree has developed that intense hatred against them. " 

" I don't understand, Old Man. Why? " 

" The Skrulls chose to gain allies with the plant beings called the Cotati which they also resided in Hala. So, our people thought they had betrayed us. " 

" Hmmm, that was a senseless and stupid issue they have, " Amnon commented. " I mean, I have understood that the Kree are one of the most powerful races in the universe. This is really absurd and ridiculous. " 

" I agree with you, son. Forgive me for our fellow people's stupidity and narrow-mindedness for such horrible fascist and uncivilized militaristic society. " 

" Right, I have seen that too here on Earth. What they have done to these people is driving them insane. " 

" You have another question in mind, Son?" 

" Thirdly, how come you have a lot of aliases and alter-egos? " 

" Remember what I have told you, I have been hiding from them and journeying throughout the cosmos? "
