After snapping this puny god's neck, I didn't expect to hear a high-pitch scream of anger and sadness. I turned with the rest of my children to see a skinny, child writhing with emotions. I smile at her recognizing her to be Atlantia, the weapon that will help me save the universe. I nodded at my children to restrain her thus acknowledging that she is the weapon that I have sought after for over a year now. I watch as she sees my children approach before unleashing a wave of power. My children flew back hitting walls or the ground hard. She walks forward with power radiating over her.

"You killed my father." She gritted out walking toward me. Then she began to sing.

Ocean hear my cry

let your power in me shine

Reverse the clock

heal what was once was fine

Save the who was hurt

Change the fate's design

heal what once was fine

bring back what once was mine

As Atlantia was singing, she continued to fight my children like it was nothing. She was able to easily disable each one without killing them which could easily be ironed out but I was amazed at her and I hoped she would survive the ordeal she would go through as my weapon because I would very much like her to be my daughter if she would allow me to. Once she finished singing, I felt a burst of energy blow off toward the puny god in my hand. I reflexively drop him from the shock and he crashes to the ground. Shockingly he opens his eyes and breathes. I look over to Atlantia in time to see her eyes radiating a pure white color that could almost be called pure power radiating inside her. The power faded back to here regular black eye colors as she collapsed weakly to the ground. I walk over to Loki leaving Atlantia alone.

"Interesting," I mutter before addressing the entire room,"Loyalty may be your fault ,child. You have the power to easily defeat me but you chose to save your father instead of "saving" the universe although your view of saving is the wrong one."

"You are killing millions of lives." I hear Atlantia weakly grit out,"That is not saving the universe, that is killing it." I walk away from Loki and toward Atlantia.

"You are blind at the moment but after I use you to help me control the Infinity Stones since it is known that you are the only one who can hold all 6 stones without dying because of your heritage, I hope I don't drain you of your powers too much that you die and I can adopt you as my daughter. I can be a real father to you instead of your the ones you call father or mother even though they are absent all the time." I gently grab her chin and gently tilted her head to make her gaze meet mine."You will see what I see if you just open your eyes to the future. I know it hurts and it is scary to see that much death especially as a child. I think some people forget you are actually 14 years old since you have to act so much older because of what is expected of you and because of the events you have experienced. Anyway, the deaths must happen if people want the universe to survive." She shakes her head out of my grip and shakily stands.

"Since you know so much about me, you know I am not going to go down without a fight." She exclaims before unleashing a wave of power that knocks me to the ground. I hit the ground hard and I was disorientated but then out of the corner of my eyes, I could see Atlantia gripping her stomach liked it pained her. I was very confused.

"Are you hurt child?" I ask her approaching.
Her eyes snap to meet mine and I see her visibly shake as she tried to summon energy.

"I...am...not...in...pain...but...you...will...soon...be."I hear Atlantua gasp out. It finally dawns on me what she has done when one of my children approached me.

"Great Titan, there are no people on the vessel. The entire vessel is empty but there are signs of people who were here. How did they escape?" Ebony Maw asks bowing before me.

I turn back to Atlantia who has now collapsed back to the ground. "You used your powers to bring the people to a safe place and came back here to fight us. You overused your powers trying to save everyone." I say to her understanding,"A noble gesture. Stupid, but noble. I guess I was right when I said loyalty was your fault." I turn toward the Black Order," Time for you to go to Earth and find the stones. I will bring Atlantia to a safe place where she can recover and be ready to be our weapon." With that I walk over to Atlantia and after taking a sedative from one of my minions, I inject it into her system even though she was so weakened she really did not need it. I pick her up once she goes limps.

"Say goodbye to your daughter gentlemen. She is going to live a lot longer then you guys." I say smiling at the two gods before using the power stone to blow up the ship and the space stone to teleport myself, Atlantia, and the Black Order away from the explosion.
