A few days later, it was the wedding ceremony of your and Druig's wedding. He had insisted on getting married before you both left Earth with Makkari and Thena, since you offered to take the Domo to find the other Eternals and break the truth to them.

"By the power vested in my by," Phastos frowned to himself as he tried to recall, "The Internet people,"

"Huh?" you turned to frown at him.

"Just roll along with it," he whispered-yelled at you, gesturing with his hand.

"Fine," you turned to the front to face Druig, who couldn't control his smile.

"I, now, pronounce you husband and— okay," Phastos rolled his eyes with a laugh when Druig didn't let him complete and kissed you passionately, his hands pulling you closer to his body while he dipped you back.

Your fellow Eternals cheered for you, Kingo surprisingly ended up shedding a few tears while Sprite and Makkari handed him handkerchiefs. Sersi was beaming, though there was a tinge of sadness to her expression as the memory of her marriage with Ikaris replayed in her head. Thena placed a hand on her shoulder with an understanding expression, turning to look at you with a proud motherly look. 

Pulling back, you and Druig, leaned your foreheads against each other's with closed eyes; appreciating and thankful for the memories and vows you made together.

"That's not Diamond either!" Kingo exclaimed, squinting his eyes at your the ring on your hand to get a better look after the wedding celebrations had subsided.

"It's Blue Sapphire," you explained, "Matches his eyes," you looked up to glance at your husband and he grinned back at you with a wink, hiding the way his heart fluttered.

Phastos had helped make the ring. An intricate thin silver band, holding a gorgeous blue stone that matched the iris of your husband's eyes. His ring had threads of powers that matched your own.

⏲TWO WEEKS LATER

📍SOUTH DAKOTA

"The sudden appearance of an enormous stone figure in the Indian Ocean has left more questions than answers for authorities," a female reporter spoke from the TV in the corner of the living room inside Ajak's old cabin, "U.S. and Australian naval ships are maintaining defensive positions but at this,"

You watched the TV with one of your legs over Druig's knee and he rested his palm on your thigh, chewing your bite of pizza that Phastos had gotten for everybody, who was seated on the far end of the couch next to Makkari.

"You guys did that?" Ben turned to you all with a look of disbelief.

Phastos swallowed after he had finished chewing, "I love you so much,"

You watched your mother converse with Jack in the kitchen, smiling in relief about how she had recovered from Mahd wy'ry. You were yet to recover, but you didn't mind much, since your episodes weren't frequent as before.

You turned back to the TV and continued watching it in peace until the familiar sound of weapon manifestation reached your ears.

Alarmed, Phastos rose to his feet, "Um, can you just—" he placed the plate in Makkari's legs and she did a face of protest as the you three watched him stand up "—Look— One second,"

"Okay. All right," he laughed and walked over to Jack with a nervous smile. "See, that thing is—Okay. Almost gave you a shave and a haircut, didn't she? Stand behind me, actually. Okay, remember earmuffs? Remember how we practiced earmuffs? Thank you so much," Phastos spoke calmly to Jack as the little boy covered his ears with his hands. This seemed to relax him and Phastos turned back to glare at Thena, "You know that your babysitting privileges are completely revoked, right? Like, it's done."

"Thank you," Phastos glanced back to gesture Jack to uncover his ears and grabbed his shoulder, "Violence—hey—Violence is never the answer. Right, T? You gotta always use your brain, hmm?"

"Like you did fighting on the beach?" Thena nodded along sarcastically.

"Your dad spoke calmly and firmly to the bad guy and he had no choice but to listen to me, so no violence," Phastos ignored her words and continued.

"Oh yes, indeed," you walked into the kitchen, stopping at the doorway to lean against it, "Very long talk that even your dad got bored and started fighting,"

Makkari joined the as she slipped her jacket on, "The kid is ten, not stupid!"

"When are you guys leaving? When is that happening?" Phastos signed his words through as he looked from one to another, "That's happening soon, right?" 

You felt Druig press a kiss to your temple as he walked past you, nodding at Jack as he pretended to throw something with a laugh.

"Oh, there's Druig," Phastos put up a nice expression, "Don't know what Y/N saw enough to marry him. Don't go anywhere near him," he warned his son.

"Oh!" Jack exclaimed as he spoke with Druig telepathically, "Yeah!"

Phastos let out a sigh, shaking his head to himself in defeat.

●▬▬▬▬▬๑۩۩๑▬▬▬▬▬●

The Domo hovered just above the ground behind the backyard of the old cabin; it seemed as though yesterday you had all gotten to Earth together, but now you were about to part ways.

Thena was the ahead, walking over to the ship while you, Phastos, Druig, and Makkari trailed a few feet behind with Jack.

"Okay, that's far enough, Jack," Phastos placed a hand in front of Jack's chest to stop him from walking any further.

Jack gasped at the sight of the ship since he had wanted to see it, "Wow, Dad, the Domo's so cool."

"Your dad fixed that with his own hands,"

Jack grinned in excitement, "Can we go to space, too, one day?"

"Let's wait till you get your learner's permit? okay?" Phastos placed his hands on his shoulders.

"Hey, Phastos," Druig stepped forward, his hands clasped together. "Take care. This world is lucky to have you."

"Thank you," Phastos extended his hand for a handshake, "I know you're not a hugger, so — "

Druig joined his hand for the handshake too but then he pulled Phastos in for a hug, clapping his hand on his back. You and Makkari exchanged a surprised look at this.

"Take care," Phastos told when he embraced you in farewell.

"You think when we find other Eternals out there, that they'll accept the truth the way we did?" Druig questioned you and Makkari.

"Hopefully," you shrugged in a vague manner.

Makkari nodded, raising her hands to sign, "Because the truth will set them free,"
