THE PRESENT - AUSTRALIA
The gang was now at Australia where some of the other Eternals decided to come and stay, walking into a house that was located in the place they were at.
Gilgamesh opened the door for his friends and was wearing a white and pink cooking apron, "What took you so long?" He questioned Ikaris, walking away to his stove when no one answered, "You know if you don't answer me that's fine."
"I've been excited to see you." A cheery voice on the camera man said.
Gilgamesh turned around, "Who the hell are you?"
"I'm Karun, Kingo's valet." The man replied, holding up his camera.
"Oh valet, like Alfred in batman?" Gilgamesh pointed over at the cameraman, smiling. Karun smiled big and nodded his head in response.
"Gilgamesh. The deviants are back." Ikaris said seriously.
"Yeah, no shit. I could of used some help." The cooker sassed back.
"We were attacked by deviants in london too." Sprite inputted.
"Even Ikaris couldn't kill it." Sersi said, making the said male turn to look at her.
Gilgamesh looked amused, walking forward, "You couldn't?"
Ikaris head was to the side, embarrassed, "I was distracted."
"Sure man." Gilgamesh teased, laughing then went to grab his pie out of the stove, "Hey, you guys wanna try my pie?"
Everyone had sad looks on their faces, "I'm sorry Gil. Ajak's dead." Ikrais spoke after the silence.
Gilgamesh stood stun, shaking his head as he couldn't believe it.
"It's true buddy. We lost her." Sprite spoke, as the cooker dropped his pie and took a sit on a chair, not believing that their leader was dead.
After Gilgamesh calmed down, the group went to see Thena and successfully did when the goddess didn't put much of a fight in that trace of hers, thanks to Gilgamesh and Sprite.
"Where's (Y/N)?" Sersi asked, sensing she was here somewhere as the woman's presents was strong.
At the mention of (Y/N)'s name, Thena and Gilgamesh shared a look.
"She's up there." Gilgamesh pointed towards a large hill, "And trust me guys, she isn't in a very good state since Druig has left."
All the Eternals there had a solemn expression on their faces, knowing how much (Y/N) cared about Druig and how his absences has damaged her.
Sersi and Ikairs made there way up the hill (Y/N) was on as the others got food ready for when they came back down.
When the pair arrived up on top of the hill, there sat on the ground meditating, legs crossed and fist together was (Y/N).
Sersi and Ikaris looked at each other then back at the woman who was focused on meditating.
"(Y/N)... we need your help." Sersi softly spoke, trying not to startle the girl, "The deviants are back again and.."
Before Sersi could finish, (Y/N)'s eyes opened to be shown with bright white ones.
(Y/N) stood up with her eyes still being a bright white, then they turned off back to her (E/C)'s eyes, head down as she talked, "I know Ajak's dead.. I felt it and I know the deviants are back." Her head lifted up and smiled at the two in front of her, though her smile didn't reach her eyes like it normally does.
"I've missed you guys."

Everyone was back in Gilgamesh's house, everyone either hugging or patting (Y/N)'s back as they reunited. This including the cameraman who (Y/N) thought was funny.
While the group was talking, eating and laughing, (Y/N) noticed Sersi change in emotion, so the (H/C) reached out and grabbed her hand, squeezing it.
Sersi turned to her and gave her a small smile, squeezing back. Something that all the Eternals adored about (Y/N) was that she was always there for them in need.
"Are you alright?" The (H/C) questioned quietly.
"Yeah, I'm okay don't worry." Seris replied back just as quiet.
(Y/N) nodded her head, squeezing the girls hand once more and went back to eating.

The yellow candles lit up the room the Eternals were sitting at, the day passing brought night time.
"So you're saying we're basically fancy robots and our past memories are stored somewhere... in space?" Kingo raised an eyebrow.
"And Arishem made the deviants." Seris replied quietly, holding onto (Y/N)'s hand on the table for comfort.
"I'm sorry Thena, you tried to warn us." Gilgamesh said, his facial expression fallen.
"Last time Arishem reset your memories something must've gone wrong." Sprit said, shaking her head.
Kingo turned his head towards her, "What do you mean?"
"Well..." Sprite started, "That's what the Mad Wy'ry is isn't it? All this time Thena was remembering all the other planets we were sent to and everyone dying during convergenes."
"I thought we were heros.. turns out we were the bad guys." Gilgamesh commented.
"We aren't the bad guys okay? we've helped the celestials expand life across the universe, that's not what bad guys do, that's what good guys do." Kingo said to everyone as (Y/N) watched Ikais move around uncomfortable, the woman knew something was up though she would let it go for now.
"Every time innocent lives are sacrificed for the greater good it turns out to be a mistake." Sersi and (Y/N) made eye contact, nodding to each other, "We have to stop the convergence."
"Sersi.. we have no right to stop it." King said, staring between the two woman opposite him.
"There has to be a way to for it to add merge without destroying the earth... We just have to delay it until we figure out how." Sersi spoke, hands gesturing as she talked.
"Could Druig control it's mind.. maybe put it to sleep?" Gilgamesh questioned as (Y/N) went stiff as the mention of the Druig's name.
"Put it to sleep? are you serious?" Sprite said appalled.
"Gilgamesh asked Druig to put me to sleep once." Thena tilted her head.
"So I could take a vacation to Fiji you know?" Gilgamesh fired back, shrugging his shoulders.
"We're talking about a celestial, okay?" King raised his voice to his family.
"We have to try.. we're not gonna let everyone on earth die right?" Seris looked around the room to everyone's faces, "And besides we have (Y/N/N) with us."
Everyone in the room eyes moved to the said girl, making (Y/N) shrink in her sit, trying to escape their stares.
"On a serious note (Y/N)... are you sure you want to see Druig after what he did to you?" King asked gently, all the Eternals having the same thought.
(Y/N)'s face hardened, her lips becoming a straight line, "That doesn't matter, what matters is we find everyone first."
The Eternals all gave each other looks at (Y/N)'s words, though deep down the (H/C) wasn't ready to see Druig, she wasn't ready to face her greatest weakness.
