Lost In Time (Druig)

Chapter 31: The Former Prime Eternal

POV; Chloe, whom remembers herself being an Eternal, created by Arishem as the Supreme Leader of the Eternals.

Babylon, 575 B.C.

As I already hoped for, the Eternals have won the fight against the Deviant Enkidu, in front of the Ishtar Gates of the greatest city in the world right now; Babylon.

I just watched them from afar on top of a hill outside the city, but still, it's cool to see them fight from another perspective.

In my years on this planet, I have witnessed some Deviants also, who were potentially not spotted by the Eternals, or were lost somewhere else on this planet close to a city where they lived. So, I had to take care of them myself, and save the humans instead.

So by that means, the humans have already met me, and probably created some stories about me, as I constantly switch places to be with the Eternals in secret.

Babylon is a beautiful city if I have to be honest. I think it's the peak for humanity as we speak, and I wonder what kind of miracles they will create when they advance. I guess I'll have to wait a little longer then.

Because the Eternals have won the battle against the predators, they and the locals are now celebrating their victory with a party in the center of the city. The humans seems to be blessed with the sudden arrival of their saviors.

It makes me happy to see the humans, as well as the Eternals, so happy. They are also blessed with the presence of the humans, and I especially see this with Sersi, as she likes to spend her time with the humans the most.

That's why she's dancing with the locals right now, to let the light shine over her whenever she smiles, as Ajak and Ikaris are watching them from the balcony.

However, it wasn't taking too long for Ikaris to finally walk away from his leader, and luckily enough, he didn't see me. This is really the closest I have ever been to the Eternals, and I like to keep it that way.

I know their Domo is located somewhere here in the city, as I have seen it before whenever I walked passed by to go to my residing place, but I haven't stepped foot into it just yet.

Luckily I don't have to. It's because of Arishem's power and my design, I can summon my suit whenever I want. It's not really part of my psychokinesis powers if I'm honest, but it's how Arishem created me.

So, that's what I'm wearing right now, but with a cloak to keep my suit secured, while my headpiece is in full sight.

It's the way I want to let Ajak know of my arrival, even tho she can probably already feel my presence.

"I already thought you might be here." I suddenly heard Ajak's voice speak as I stepped closer to her, while Ikaris is luckily gone. I smiled a little, knowing I am right this time.

I made my way next to her on the balcony, hearing loud but joyful noises coming from below, as this balcony has a view on the plaza.

But after a long time, the leaders finally got each other in plain sight, as we smiled towards each other. I have never been so close to an Eternal before. I knew when I started my mission it was only Ajak I can be close to.

"You know I like to keep an eye on you, and even if I am not here because you don't need my advice, doesn't mean I can't check up on you guys whenever I want." I said, and because of my words, she chuckled a little, both looking downwards from the balcony.

I like to take risks sometimes, but I'm still careful, don't worry. That's why I'm also wearing a cloak, instead of me being in full armor.

As I watched the Eternals from the balcony, I see Kingo, Gilgamesh and Sprite are seated next to each other, laughing while having a drink.
