PART 1 ~ PART 2 ~ MASTERLIST

~~~

Y/N walked towards the large platform in the middle of the room with the remaining of the Avengers, all in their rather cool looking matching time heist suits. She had to admit that she felt pretty badass, walking alongside the world’s mightiest heroes, going off to save the world like it was any other Tuesday for them.

After the young girl found out the formula of time travel and showed it to Tony, they had created a steady device and explained the idea to the team, which everyone quickly agreed with. They had been split up into three teams to go back in time and gather all six infinity stones before Thanos could find or use them. The teams were split up into Natasha, Clint, Nebula and Rhodey to get the soul and power stones, Thor, and Rocket to get the reality stone (or ether I guess), and Scott, Bruce, Tony, Steve and Y/N to get the Time, Mind, and Space stones.

The team now stood on the platform, putting their hands together as Steve performed his motivational speech, Y/N clung onto every word, still shocked that she got to suit up with them, and also a bit nervous. But she knew that she had the proper training if it came to it and if worse comes to worst, she has a quick solution handy in her pocket, one that she’s been carrying around for years.

“One round trip each. No mistakes, no do-overs,” Cap spoke as he looked around at everyone in the circle. “Most of us are going to a place we know; that doesn’t mean we should know what to expect. Be careful, look out for each other.” Y/N looked beside her up at Tony, who smiled reassuringly at her. “This is the fight of our lives, and we’re gonna win. Whatever it takes.” Steve finished his speech as they separated hands. Y/N looked over at Nat and gave her a smile, to which she returned.

“See you in a minute,” she says winking over at her mentee. She rolled her eyes but laughed. Suddenly the machine above them started to whir and spin around, and the mask on Y/N’s suit came up to cover her face. She felt her breathing start to go heavy but soon relaxed as Tony gave her hand a squeeze. She felt her body being compressed down into the size of an atom and swept away into the quantum realm, trying to control herself and following the lead of Tony just in front of her.

Before she knew it her feet hit the ground below her and her knees buckled from underneath her. As she regained her balance and looked up, her eyes went wide as she took in the scene in front of her. Just a few feet away, she saw the original Avengers, formed in a circle and gearing up for the infamous battle of 2012 against Loki. Y/N almost let out a squeal, remembering watching them do their work on the news when she was younger.

“You alright there?” Tony asked as he gave the girl a teasing smile. “You look like you’re about to explode.” Y/N shook her head but smiled back.

“Yeah I just, wow I was such a fan of you guys when I was younger,” she said as she watched on as they parted ways and did their own thing to take down as many aliens as possible. She then looked back up at Tony and smirked, one that reminded him of himself. “You guys were so much cooler back then. Now you’re all like, big old grampa’s.”

“Woah!” Tony said, giving her a playful look of pain as he grabbed his heart as if she had stabbed him with her comment. “Ouch, you know I understand why you would say that for Cap, cause he’s literally like, 100 years old but for me?”

“Guys we have to focus here,” Bruce caught their attention before Y/N could come back with another snarky comeback. “God sometimes I wonder how the two of you arent’s related, you’re like the same person nowadays.” Tony rolled his eyes, looking back out onto the street.

Before they could try and cross the street to get to the Stark Tower, a giant and raging green Hulk came down from the ground, pounding robots into the ground and flinging them around like ragdolls. As the group looked back at Bruce he covered his face, embarrassed of what he used to be. Steve told Bruce and Scott to find Dr. Strange and the time stone while he, Tony, and Y/N went up to the Stark tower to get the mind and space stone. As they got in and saw the past Avengers, Steve departed to get Loki’s staff, containing the mind stone, while Tony and Y/N worked on getting the Tesseract.

Y/N hid out in a small conference room out of sight, since Tony didn’t want her directly participating in the mission, much to her demise. She opened her laptop, which she disguised as a briefcase. She quickly typed in the password before pulling up multiple programs on the small screen, including a camera view from Tony’s glasses and a controller for a small robotic device she’d use to slip around without being realized.

“You sure this is gonna work, kid?” Tony asked quietly through the comm, causing Y/N to roll her eyes.

“Yes, Tony. I’ve been working on this model forever, I know what I’m doing,” she sassed back, looking through a small camera on the spider-shaped device she originally created with Peter. “Just remember I’m the reason we’re all here. I’m not just a pretty face, Stark.”

“Yeah yeah,” he mumbled as he watched his past self pack up the Tesseract in a briefcase. “Ok, spider-girl, release your little spiderling.” He says dramatically as the spider crawls from his pocket and makes its way onto the roof. Y/N chuckled at the nickname before focusing on controlling the spider-robot, the decoy lowering itself onto past Tony’s shoulder without anyone noticing. She couldn’t help but let out a little squeal at her excellent work. She watched through the small cam as the Avengers (excluding Hulk, who was told to take the stairs) made their way into the foyer of the building.

Tony watched along as his past self walks along with the other original Avengers and Loki. Alexander Pierce and his crew walked towards them as present-day Tony gave Y/N the signal to drop down. Y/N dropped the spider drone into Tony’s beard and then down onto his chest, the almost microscopic robot slipping through and into his arc reactor. She explores for a while until she finds what Tony had told her would cause the distraction.

“Is this really a good idea, Stark?” Y/N asked worriedly, not thinking of the consequences until then.

“Yeah, sure. It’ll only cause me to go into a tiny cardiac distract,” Tony stated casually, and Y/N’s eyes widened immediately, stopping the robot.

“What?!” She says, shaking her head. “Okay, no. No no no no no. I’m not gonna do this, we can figure out something else it’ll be fine.”

“Y/N, hey, calm down,” Tony says, his voice going lower. “Don’t worry, I’ll be fine. I mean I’m still here, so that’s gotta mean something right? If I died I wouldn’t be here.” Y/N scoffed at his words, but still, her hands were shaking, not wanting to hurt someone she had gotten so close to. She couldn’t bear if anything happened to him.

“No shit, Sherlock,” she whispers back into the comm, but loud enough for him to hear it. He rolled his eyes and continued to watch as Pierce tried to snatch the case away from his hands. “Time’s running out, Y/N. Pull my pin!”

“Okay, okay, give me a second.” She said as she maneuvered the tiny device to the said area with a small pin that helped keep everything in the arc reactor together. “But if you die, Tony, it’ll be your funeral. Literally.” She comments back to try and defuse the tension she felt. He quietly gave her another reassurance before giving the signal. With the small metal pinchers, Y/N pulled the cord in the arc reactor and through the other camera through Tony’s glasses she saw past Tony fall to the floor just as Pierce was taking the case containing the Tesseract from his hands.

The metal case fell to the floor with a hard clank and 2012 Tony followed soon after it, shaking slightly on the floor. Pierce and his crew members, as well as the other Avengers there, kneeled down beside him and tried to figure out what was wrong.

The small metallic robot climbed out from Tony’s reactor and pushed the case over to Tony, who was disguised as a staff of security. He discreetly picked it up and began walking away from the scene as medics began rushing to help the famous billionaire on the floor. What they didn’t know was that they weren’t as discreet as they thought.

“Good job, kid. Meet me in the alley, I’m gonna-” but was cut off as a big green angry hulk burst through the door, knocking down Tony and flinging the tesseract out of its case and down the hallway. The bright blue square landed right at the feet of Loki, who looked down and quickly picked it up, using its powers to teleport him out of the tower as people were too distracted running in terror.

Thor tapped his hammer against Tony’s chest, causing him to stop shaking and blink frantically, looking at his surroundings. “Where’s the case?” Y/N heard him ask. Her face dropped as she moved to drone to look all around the room, finding no clue where the Tesseract or Loki himself was.

“Fuck this,” she mumbled, working her computers to try and get into the security tapes, looking for what might’ve happened to either of them. “That wasn’t supposed to happen, was it?"

Tony sat himself up on his elbows looking around to see people screaming and running away from the Hulk, who was screaming about no stairs, and to his other side, officers looking for Loki and the Tesseract. “Shit.”

Y/N quickly packed up her computers and put them back into her bag, running out to meet Tony at the alleyway where they had come in. She found an abandoned car parked beside it and saw Tony already sitting in its head in his hand as he observed the destruction outside.

“What the hell happened, Stark?” She said as she got into the back seat. “We had the Tesseract, where did it go?” Tony sighed, closing his eyes as he responded, trying to keep calm.

“I don’t know what happened, Y/N,” he said tensely. “I know we had it but now we don’t, okay? Something happened, I don’t know what.”

“Well, you better fucking figure it out!” She yelled, her ears going red as she got more angry by him not seeming to care. “Did you not hear what Cap said? No do-overs! We fucked up so what are we gonna do now!”

“I don’t know what we’re gonna do!” He screamed back turning to face her. He sighed, running a hand down his face and closed his eyes. He stayed silent for a bit, using the silence to calm himself down. He knew she was only acting like this because she was scared. And honestly, he was too. “But we’ll figure something out. I promise. Everything will be okay.”

Y/N gulped to hold back her screaming, not wanting to rant to him about every little thing that had already gone wrong, and how she was starting to lose hope. Then Cap jumped down from a balcony, one hand propping up the shield while the other gripped Loki’s staff.

“Cap,” Tony caught his attention. Steve saw them in the dirt-covered car as he walked towards them. “We’ve got a bit of a problem here.” Y/N scoffed, shaking her head as she let her stress get the better of her again.

“A bit of a problem?” She asked sarcastically. “More like we’re in deep shit!” She said getting out of the car and slamming the door shut with surprising force. Tony rolled his eyes. Steve looked between the two, his eyebrows scrunching up in confusion.

“What happened?” he asked, looking at Y/N. She laughed ironically, starting to pace along the alleyway.

“We lost the goddamn Tesseract is what happened!” She said as she aggressively kicked a piece of debris on the ground. “It’s gone and now the plan isn’t gonna work. We don’t have enough Pym particles to go back again. It’s over, we’re done.” She leaned down and sat against the wall, leaning her head back.

“Are there any other options with the Tesseract,” Steve asked, causing Y/N to roll her eyes at his always enthusiastic goody-two-shoes energy.

“No. No there’s not,” she said annoyed as she stood up and walking over to him. “You said it yourself, there are no do-overs. If we use that last Pym particle, we’re never getting home.”

“Well, if we don’t try, no one else is going home either,” he stated. Y/N sighed, squeezing her eyes shut as she leaned against the car. She knew he was right. But what was the use of going back again to get the stone if they couldn’t get back in the present to put it in the gauntlet?

“I got it,” Tony said suddenly, getting out of the car. Y/N’s head shot up as she stood up and followed him as he got out of the car himself. “There’s another way to get the Tesseract and acquire new particles. We’ll take a stroll down memory lane. Military installation Garden State.”

“Why were they both there?” Steve asked, causing Y/N to look between the two as they continued their conversation. Tony shrugged.

“They were both there for a…” he trailed off as he thought. “I have a vaguely exact idea,” he defended himself. Cap gave him a look, the same one he gave Y/N when he caught her doing something she shouldn’t have around the compound or when she sasses one of the other team members a bit too much.

“How vague,” he asked.

“Woah, okay, what’s going on?” Y/ finally butted in. “What are you guys talking about? Where are we going?” She asked eagerly as they started entering in the time date and coordinates.

“Correction, we’re going. You’re travelling back to the present to give this to the others,” Tony said as he handed her Loki’s staff. Her eyes bulged out as she stood up straighter.

“Tony, I can help. I’m not letting you guys go alone, I’m coming with you,” she stated strongly as she put her suit up. Tony shook his head.

"I trust you with this, kid, okay? get back to home base, we’ll be there by the time you get back.” He said as he and Steve put up their own suits. He took her hand and entered in the present-day coordinates to get back home as she looked at him like he was crazy, which she currently felt he was.

“What?! But Tony-!” She started, but before Y/N could argue, she felt the ground sweep from under her feet and she was being sent back to the present day, Loki’s staff still held tightly in her hand.

As she regained her balance, she looked around the room, seeing that everyone had their respective stone’s, including Tony with the Tesseract. But something seemed off. She did another swift headcount of everyone and realized someone had to be missing.

“Where’s Nat?” She asked, looking around at everyone’s confused faces before looking at Clint, whose eyes were red and glassy. She watched as he looked up at her, shaking his head slightly as a fresh tear rolled down his face. Y/N felt her chest tighten as her mouth opened slightly, letting out a shuttering breath. She knew that face, she wore the same expression five years ago.

She felt tears well up into her eyes, not even thinking of losing a mentor, someone she considered family during the process of getting those who were snapped away back. She felt tears starting to form in her own eyes as regret and sadness took over the whole team.

~~~

The team had taken a quick break to take a moment to mourn their friend, to some even their family. It was odd to not have Natasha around, making small sarcastic quips at any person in the room when you’d least expect it. Y/N quickly splashed her face with water, making the tears on her face earlier vanish as she went back into the room where Tony had just completed the infinity gauntlet 2.0 and everyone was arguing over who should snap their fingers.

“What do you think is coursing through my veins right now?” She heard as she exited the ladies bathroom just beside the room. She leaned against the doorframe as she answered.

“Cheez Whiz?” she asked sarcastically as she came up to stand in between the god and Tony. Thor looked down, confusion on his face as he pointed at her and she, in return, gave him a sly smile.

“Lightning,” he emphasized. Y/N sucked in a breath and averted her gaze as he looked expectantly at Tony, who let out a sigh as he pinched his eyebrows together in concentration.

“Lightning won’t help you, pal. It’s gotta be me,” she heard Bruce say from behind her as he walked to the group. She listened intently as he continued. “You saw what those stones did to Thanos; it almost killed him. None of you would survive.”

“Well, how will we know if you will?” Cap said seriously. Y/N looked at Tony, who looked down at her and gave her a knowing glance, that showed he knew it was true. Y/N nodded slightly as Bruce continued.

“We don’t. But the radiation is mostly gamma. It’s… it’s like I was made for this.” The team looked around before Tony stepped out and started explaining the rules of the stones.

“Remember, everyone Thanos snapped away five years ago, we’re just bringing them back to now. Don’t change anything from the past five years,” he said and Bruce nodded, looking at his arm which he prepared to hold the gauntlet in.

The team around him suited up. Y/N felt the cool nanotech of her newly modelled suit slide over her skin, occasionally catching a thin hair. The spiderman-inspired outfit was of the colours white, black, and magenta, with fine reflective webbing details along the side of her arms, legs and torso. She stood behind Tony as he created a protective shield in front of them and Clint on the other side of him.

Metallic barn doors shut around all doors and windows in the room and around the compound. Bruce put on the glove holding the infinity stones and immediately began to scream in pain, doubling down to the ground as he struggled to push his fingers together to snap.

“Take it off! Take it off!” Thor said as he stepped towards Banner, who was still struggling to stay upright. Steve held out his hand to Thor as a sign to stop.

“No, wait! Bruce, are you okay?” Steve asked as he looked at the green giant. Bruce continued to moan but nodded slightly. Y/N stood back further as she heard Banner scream loudly and saw his fingers coming closer together and finally the sound of the metal hitting metal in the snap.

There was a surge of power that almost knocked her over, stumbling to catch her balance. She heard a loud thump as Bruce’s body finally collided with the floor, unconscious. Many people ran towards him to help but Y/N just looked around. She felt her feet carry her to the window as they opened again, seeing birds chirping happily outside.

“D-did it work?” Y/N mumbled as the mask of her suit disappeared from around her face. Everyone turned to look at where she was, seeing multiple new birds coming into sight, planting themselves on a nearby sapling. A phone started to ring, and Clint walked over to his cell vibrating on the glass table, a picture of his beloved wife displayed on the screen. He picked it up and started talking to her.

Tony walked over to Y/N, placing a comforting hand on her shoulder, bringing her attention over to him. He wore a giant smile and even looked like he was in tears. He squeezed her shoulder as she let out a gasp, hand covering her mouth as the biggest smile spread across her soft features. She laughed softly, in disbelief but so happy. Tony matched her actions and pulled her into the biggest hug, and she felt comfortable as she placed her head on his chest.

“We did it, kid,” he mumbled into her messy hair, feeling her locks dampen with his tears. “We finally did it. They’re back.” Y/N laughed again into his suit as she pulled him closer and hugged him tighter, closing her eyes as she felt true relief finally wash over her entire being. But of course, that wouldn’t last for long.

Next thing she knew she was being flung across the compound while a missile hit just outside the window. She felt herself fly through multiple layers of brick and glass, piercing her skin and knocking the breath from her lungs. She coughed heavily as the dust from the rubble entered her system, trying to balance herself enough to stand up and analyze the situation.

“Tony?!” She screamed, looking for the older man that she was just in contact with. “Tony?! Cap?! Thor?!” She screamed any name that came to mind, hoping for someone to hear her, and possibly give her an explanation. She was limping, pain shooting through her ankle whenever she out the slightest pressure on it. It was definitely broken. She felt the metallic taste of blood entering her mouth, and she was scared to say she didn’t know where it came from, her now bleeding nose or the small cuts that littered her cheeks and lips.

“Y/N?” She heard a voice say and sighed with relief. From the dust came Clint, holding something in his arms, the Infinity Gauntlet. “Hey, I got you, you’re okay,” He reassures her as he puts an arm across her back and under her arms, supporting her weight so she can walk. “Tony, I’m with the kid, she seems okay.”

“Is he okay?” she asked quietly when Clint found a safe spot. He looked at her and nodded.

“yeah he’s fine, but almost had a heart attack when he couldn’t find you,” he says, offering her a smile before his face went stoic again. “But he’s here. Thanos. He found us.” Y/N’s eyes went wide, her eyebrows furrowing into a line of confusion. She blinked a couple of times as she processed the new information.

“What? But– but Thanos i-is dead? He’s dead! You said he was dead!” She screams as she feels her heart rate quicken, her breath refusing to meet her lips as if it was stuck inside her throat. Clint reached down and held her hand, rubbing his thumb against the back of her hands as a calming method he has seen Tony use on her before.

“I know, I thought he was gone too,” he whispered, looking back at the dark tunnel before turning back to her. “But this is a different Thanos, he followed us from the past.” Y/N felt her throat close up, dark thoughts filling her mind. Fuck. This was all her fault.

There was a sound that came from down the tunnel, almost like a snarl. The pair went quiet, looking towards the source. Clint slowly took out an arrow from the collection he kept on his back, placing it in his bow and shooting it straight down the line, the end glowing up– revealing about ten or twelve alien-looking dogs. Y/N let out a breath as the two scurried to get up. Clint held up her weight as they ran, eventually settling to pick her up as he ran from the dogs.

As they came to a split in the road, Clint threw her to a different path, signalling for her to run and hide as he continued to run down the other path, provoking the dogs to follow him and leave her. Y/N limped down the path, using the wall to support her as she hopped along. Soon she came across a mop of messy hair frantically looking around the rubble.

“Tony,” she tried to say but found that her voice was scratchy and weak. “Tony, I’m right here.” The said man turned around the stress on his face leaving as he saw the girl he was looking for. He quickly wrapped an arm around as Clint had earlier and walked her away from the scene.

“God, hey kid. You hanging in there?” He said, checking the area before leading her to a small space of coverage under a piece of rubble that looked like it used to be the floor. She nodded in reassurance before grabbing his arm and pulling him back up.

“I need you to take me to our lab, now,” she said urgently and he obliged, not even thinking of asking why. He directed her to a small metal door attached to a broken piece of wall, typing in a code on the damaged keyboard before pushing the heavy doors open.

She rushed over to her part of the lab, the barely working glass screen table popping up and she quickly punched in a few passwords before looking in a locked drawer for one of the small viles kept safely there. Tony looked from her face to the small tube, confusion painting his face as he watched her pop the lid, hesitating before bringing it to her lips and gulping down the small amount of dark red liquid.

Y/N felt the iron tasting liquid slid down her throat as she swallowed it uncomfortably, immediately feeling the effects. Her eyesight went black and her head started to spin. She went to grab the nearest object her hold herself up, the dizziness and broken ankle not being the best combination. Tony rushed to her side, grabbing her other arm.

“Y/N, what the hell was that,” Tony said, concern laced his voice as he watched the girl groan, squeezing her eyes shut and throwing her head back. She gulped before answering in short breaths.

“That answer may vary between poison and what I like to call a spider-serum,” she replied, sarcasm still in use through her pain. Tony looked at her with bewilderment in his eyes, as this was not a project approved by him or not even one they’ve talked about. She gritted her teeth together, continuing to moan out in pain as she collapsed to the floor, Tony calling out her name.

As Y/N got her self together, she placed both hands on the desk in front of her nailed into the floor, using it to pull herself back on her feet. She felt everything in her body changing, she could hear the blood rushing through her veins, she could smell the smoke from across the battlefield outside the reinforced metal door, she could feel the small hairs on Tony’s arms tickling her own as he tried to shake her out of her trance.

“Y/N! Kid come on, snap out of it. What the hell was that?” He said as he continued to shake her. She was going to bring a hand up to slap his own away but instead found them stuck to the table. As she tried tugging again, the steal table breaking off the floor while still sticking to her hands. Y/N and Tony looked in shock.

Y/N then began to laugh, her eyes wide in disbelief. She widened her hands and the desk fell from her palms, crashing against the floor. “Holy shit,” she whispered as she looked at Tony, who was looking from the now broken table to her. “It worked! Oh god, I can’t believe it actually worked!” She screamed as she jumped up and down and headed towards the door.

“No no no, what the hell was that?!” Tony asked. Y/N rolled her eyes, still smiling as she impatiently grabbing his arm and dragged him outside towards the fight. She smiled at him, a great look of success overgoing her as she showed him the potion she had been perfecting for the last couple of years.

“Well, I took a blood sample of Peter’s and checked it to see what kind of stuff the spider had injected into him,” she said as Tony gave her a weird look. “Don’t ask how I got it, I don’t really know either. But as I analyzed it further, I had an idea to take the sample and separate the effects of the injection, and used it to create a serum that would give me powers similar to Peter’s, using the poison of his spider to create powers of my own.”

Tony looked at her mesmerized, then looked at the stash of dark red vials in the drawer. He lifted his eyebrows and nodded, impressed beyond words of the young girl’s discovery. Then he paused and looked back at her. “Wait, so you technically drank spiderboy’s blood?” He asked suspiciously. Y/N opened her mouth to respond but didn’t quite know how.

“I-” she paused, closing her eyes and shaking her head. “Okay, no, we don’t have time for this conversation right now. There’s a giant purple grape out that waiting to be slain.” Tony nodded and soon the two headed out the door without any further questions, saluting each other before Y/N darted off at an irregularly fast tempo.

She felt the wind blow rapidly against her hair as she ran through the bad guys, dodging hits with swiftness. Of course, she wasn’t fast like Pietro but definitely was faster than she usually was, which proved to be a great advantage while on the battlefield. Y/N saw Tony, Thor and Steve fighting against Thanos in the background as she thwiped out a web and flew into the air, grabbing one of the Chiari and slamming it into another group coming towards her.

She continued to fight when suddenly she felt a tingly sense that made her head shoot towards Steve, watching as he stood up by himself, his shield broken in his hand, as he prepared to single-handedly fight the titan. Y/N ran towards him when she heard a voice in her comm, that definitely wasn’t from anyone on their battlefield.

“On your left…”

She seemed to distantly recognize the voice but couldn’t quite place it. That is until a portal appeared beside Steve, made of orange sparks that she had remembered. There, the king of Wakanda, T'Challa, his younger sister, Shuri she thought her name was, and another girl who was dressed in a warriors uniform and a shaved head, holding a golden spear stood beside the king.

After that, portal after portal began to form around the atmosphere, with more battleships, superheroes and warriors of all kinds of countries and galaxies appearing through them and getting into their battle positions. Y/N smiled proudly before running up to the giant team and taking her place next to the Wakandian princess, lunging down into the iconic spidey stance and getting ready to avenge the rest of the universe. She looked at Steve as he watched everyone take their places among him.

“Avengers…” he starts as he holds out his hand and Mjolner flies into his grip. “Assemble!”

Battle cries and the sound of machines whirring and flying filled the atmosphere as they ran towards the alien army opposite of them. Y/N flicked out her wrist and grabbed onto one of the giants floating motherships and swung low to the ground, knocking out multiple enemies at once. Once she landed on the ground she continued to fist fight them off of her one by one, like Natasha had taught her for so many years.

But as good as she was doing at the moment, it wasn’t hard for her to get overpowered when a bunch jumped on her back at once, knocking her down to the floor, struggling to keep them from ripping out her skin. She tried to push them off, and successfully webbed some to the ground to keep them off of her, but it wasn’t enough to handle them all.

“Hey, watch out!” A boyish voice sounded through her comms as all the aliens were kicked right off of her, giving her a chance to stand up and fight off the rest, her rescuer standing behind her, back to back, as they both slung down the dogs and threw them across the battlefield. Y/N stabbed some with her pincer things Tony put on her back.

Once they were gone, Y/N grabbed the boy behind her and pulled him into a quieter place as she unmasked herself, looking expectantly at the boy. “Peter?” She said, her voice breaking as she looked at the Iron Spider suit, which disappeared from his face, revealing his unruly curls and a just as shocked look on his face.

“Y/N?” He whispered, disbelief in his eyes as she saw a single tear escape his brown orbs and gently slide down his cheek. He looked the same, but at the same time looked more mature, and she was relieved that he had seemed to grow while he was gone, or else the near future situation would be a bit awkward. “W-what are you doing here?” Y/N giggled a bit, feeling her own hot tears sliding down her dirt and blood covered cheek as her delicate hand went up to grab his own, wiping his tears.

“I came to save you, dummy,” she joked. Peter smiled at her, placing his hands on her waist. Although it wasn’t as long for Peter in the soul stone as it was for Y/N while on Earth since he was in a coma-like state pretty much the whole time, he had missed her honey-coated voice and sickly sweet smile. He had waited too long for this.

They watched each other for a little longer, analyzing the small details that had changed around their faces since the years passed before Peter leaned down and attached their lips together for a very long-awaited kiss. Y/N squeezed her eyes shut as her hands trailed back to rest on the back of his neck, playing with the small hairs at the nape of his neck as she felt the cold metal of his suit brush against her fingertips.

As they parted, he leaned down and pressed his forehead to hers, her sweat mixing with his as they kept their eyes closed and smiled at the feeling. Even though they were in the middle of a war, Y/N has never felt more at peace than that moment while she was in his arms.

Suddenly she felt the fine hairs on the back of her arm and the back of her neck stand up, and without thinking she extended her arms and traps the alien running towards them in one of her webs, throwing it up before pulling it back down to the ground, crushing it.

Apparently, Peter felt it too because when she looked back to him he was already looking back at the now-dead dog. His head turned back towards her, his mouth hanging open a bit as he let out a breath, a beautiful smile painting his lips as he grabbed her face, looking her in the eye.

‘God, I love you so much,“ he mumbles as he brings her mouth up to his again, this kiss a bit more passionate than the last. Y/N laughed into the kiss as she brought her arms around his neck and played with his hair. She pulled him back a bit, their noses still brushing against one another as she pecked him on the lips.

"I love you too,” she whispered, looking into his eyes with such adoration he almost exploded right there with the adrenaline he was feeling just having her this close to him. He smiled wider as he pecked her on the lips; once, twice, and a third time brought her into a proper kiss.

“Y'know as heartwarming as this moment is, you lovebirds realize we’re still fighting a war,” someone said from behind them. They quickly pulled away, stepping back from one another to face Tony Stark, a smirk on his lips as he examined the blush on the young adult’s faces, bashfully looking away from one another.

“Oh shut it, Tony. I deserve this at least,” she shook her head as she looked at the perfect boy beside her, someone she had known pretty much her whole life and had been in love with for just as long. Peter smiled at Tony and walked over to greet him, excited to see his mentor again after so long.

“Mr. Stark! Holy cow you will not believe what has happened to me,” Peter began to ramble as he walked up to him and started to do his usual over-exaggerated hand gestures. “Do you remember when we were in space? Right? And I got all dusty? Well I must have passed out and Dr. Strange said we went to the Soul Stone and we were in like a coma for like five years, and when I woke up, Dr. Strange was there too and he was like 'it’s been five years we have to go’, and then he started doing that yellow sparkly thingy, uh, that he does and… what are you doing? …oh.” Peter stopped when Tony wrapped his arms around him and pulled him into a tight embrace.

Tony felt such a great sense of relief as he hugged Peter, never realizing that the kid was like his first son until it was too late and having to wait so many years to hear his voice again. He placed a kiss on his cheek, in a fatherly way, and opened his eyes, smiling at Y/N who looked so happy.

“This is nice,” Peter said before they pulled away, Peter turned back at Y/N and smiled at her, his grin reaching his sparkling eyes. Tony patted his shoulder.

“I think it’s time we get back into battle,” he stated, his mask going back over his face as he got his repulsors ready. “You two don’t take too long, and NO funny business.” The pair nodded as he flew back into the air, going to help Banner or the Hulk. Peter turned back to Y/N.

“Wow, this is so awesome,” he said as he walked back to her, holding her arms as he admired her suit, which looked similar to his. “You’re like, my spider-girl sidekick.” Y/N laughed and pushed his chest playfully.

“I’m nobody’s sidekick, Parker,” she said. “But I can be your… partner?” Peter smiled and blushed. He bit his lip as he looked her over again, his grin contagious.

“In what way?” He asked, trying to sound sly but sounding more scared of the answer. Y/N laughed and walked over to him, wrapping her arms around his waist.

“In whatever way you want me to be,” she said, kissing his cheek before putting her mask back on and saluting him before swinging of back into battle. Peter stood there with a red blush crawling up his neck and feeling breathless, his smile growing wider if that was even possible.

“Awesome,” he muttered before his mask also went over his face and he went to go help as well.

Y/N was swinging over the battle, occasionally knocking out an airborne enemy in her way if she had to. She scanned through the people fighting, looking for anyone who needed help. But then her web was seemed to be disintegrated as she fell hard onto the floor, another lazer like beam hit right beside her just barely grazing her shoulder. She saw the witch people? (that’s what Tony called them at least) started to make barriers which she quickly ran under. She looked around for Tony and Peter, but couldn’t see them. Until she heard the latter’s voice through her comm.

“Help! Somebody help!” He said, sounding panicked and she heard his grunts as he tried to fight off the aliens. Without thinking of the possible dangers she ran out to help him, her spider-senses helping her locate him. She saw him under a bunch of the aliens and shot a web up.

“Peter, duck!” She said as she rammed through the enemies, knocking them over like bowling pins. She grabbed Peter around the waist and tugged him into her as she shot a web and took them out, grabbing onto Mjloner which had flown right above.

“Aw, thanks, Y/N,” Peter said as he put his head into her neck, which she couldn’t help but blush at. She thought it was cute how their roles were sort of reversed and he was just so baby.

Y/N continued to ride onto the hammer until she saw that it was heading straight towards one of the flying motherships. Her eyes went wide as she looked for a way to get off. She saw Valkerye, one of Thor’s friends, and called out for her as a warning before throwing Peter up so he could get the gauntlet back to Scott.

Y/N then stood on the small handle of the hammer before using her web to fling herself forward, jumping up to get on top of the ship as the hammer continued to destroy it from the inside. As she jumped off and landed surprisingly gracefully on the ground, she looked up to realize that the ships were no longer firing at them, but at something in the atmosphere above.

Y/N squinted before watching a figure move at lightning speed straight through one of the ships firing at them, exploding the whole thing. Y/N smiled, knowing who it was as she ran down to help Peter up, who had just almost been hit by one of the beams.

“Hey, you alright?” She asked softly as she grabbed his arm and helped him get up, him going to get the gauntlet which had escaped his grip after falling. He nodded, his mask going back as hers did.

“Yeah, yeah, all good,” he reassured as he held onto her shoulder for support. “That was so badass, by the way. When I was like, stuck, you know, under those aliens. And then you came and was like wham! and like kicked them off and then you just sorta like picked me up and then you just like threw me onto that flying horse, which is crazy. But you like saved me and that was so cool. Like really cool. Thanks.” Peter rambled as he looked at her in awe, which she gave a sweet smile in return.

Before he could comment any more someone landed right in front of them. Captain Marvel smiled and nodded at Y/N, as she returned the gesture, and looked at Peter, who was still holding tightly onto the infinity stones. Peter looked at her with wide eyes and in awe.

“Hi I-I’m Peter.. Parker,” he said shyly. Captain Marvel smiled at him, looking between the two teenagers.

“I know,” she said as she gave Y/N a knowing glance. “Hey, Peter Parker. You got something for me?” Peter looked at the gauntlet before looking out at the army that was racing towards them, feeling scared at the moment.

“I don’t know how you’re gonna get through that,” he said as he delicately handed the glove to Carol as the other female Avengers and superheroes gathered together around her. Y/N felt immediately at home and looked over at Peter reassuringly as Wanda landed by her side.

“Don’t worry,” Y/N said with a smile as her mask got on and Okoye, T’Challa’s head of king’s guard, finished her sentence for her.

“She’s got help,” she said, and the group of them began to run like hell towards the growing army, all doing their own thing to slam through and take down the enemy. Y/N webbed them down as they tried to attack her sisters and knocked them over as she swung by. She saw one of the bigger monsters making its way towards her, and effortlessly picked it up and threw it into the rest of the aliens making their way towards her at a fast rate.

As she continued to fight off the enemy, she felt a strong surge of energy pass through her, making her stumble slightly. As she regained her balance, she watched as the aliens that were once running straight for her turned into dust, disappearing into the wind. She squinted her eyebrows, looking around for who had snapped before she felt the hairs on the back of her neck stand up, warning her that something was wrong.

She followed her senses to find Tony sitting against a piece of debris, extremely pale and barely moving, his arm and part of his face burnt off. She felt her breathing stop as she stumbled towards him, muttering his name as she collapsed in front of him in front of all the other Avengers.

“T-Tony? Tony! No!” She said as fell in front of him, going to grab his hand with both of hers. She hadn’t felt this type of heartbreak since 2018 when she had lost Peter, her mom, and the rest of her friends. But this time she was losing her father.

“Hey, kid,” he said so quietly she wouldn’t have heard him, but she was practically hugging him by now, clinging onto him as a silent way of asking not to leave her. As she heard his voice, an ugly sob ripped through her as she buried her head in his chest as a form of comfort.

“Tony, please not you too,” she asked quietly, squeezing his hand so tight that the metal surrounding it had started to cut into her palms, but she could care less. “Not you too, please. We need you, Tony. I need you, and Morgan, please.” She couldn’t even finish before breaking down.

“Mr. Stark? Can you hear me? It’s Peter.” Peter asked from behind her, shocked to see Y/N holding onto him and crying into him. Tony weakly looked up and brought his attention to the original web-slinging spider. “We won, Mr. Stark. You did it. You did it, sir.”

At the mention of his name, Y/N finally looked up towards Peter, and he felt his heart shatter looking at her already bloodshot red eyes and the tear tracks that were a bright contrast against the rest of her face, which was covered in dust and blood. He walked over to her and wrapped his arms around her, gently pulling her off and into his own arms.

“No, No! Let go, please! I need to help him. Please. No.” Her voice got quieter as Peter held her closely, her back pressed against his chest as they both watched him. Tony looked between the pair, and although it hurt him to see the tears in their eyes, he was happy that they would be able to work through it together. He looked up at Peter and nodded his chin towards Y/N.

“Take… take care of… of her,” he whispered, causing a sob to come over Peter as well as he nodded vigorously, holding her tighter against him if that was even possible at this point.

“Of course, yes always,” he said as he felt salty tears run down at a rapid pace. “I’m sorry. I’m sorry, Tony.” Tony tried to give him a smile, tried to give him a sign that everything would be okay, but found that he couldn’t.

Then Tony looked at Y/N. He remembered the last time she was like this, and it hurt him that he had to cause her the same pain. But he cared for her and knew that this was what had to happen to keep both of his daughters safe. “I love you.”

Y/N’s head fell as she heard the three simple words come from his mouth, leaning into Peter as she tries to control herself, trying to look strong in front of him, knowing who worried he must be already. “I love you, too, dad.” She whispered and nodded, reaching out to squeeze his hand one more time before Pepper came to his side. Peter carefully pulled Y/N back, her collapsing into his lap and crying into his shoulder as he rubbed her back tried to keep in his own tears to be strong for her but ended up letting go and crying into her soft hair.

“Friday?” Pepper asked, her hand on Tony’s chest as Tony’s hand was placed gently on top of hers.

“Life functions critical,” the AI responded. Y/N felt like she was gonna be sick. She couldn’t think she could breathe, how do you even breathe again? Because she couldn’t quite remember at the moment. She listened to Peter’s heartbeat and used his rising and falling chest as a model.

“Tony? Look at me,” Pepper managed a smile at Tony as he groaned while turning to look towards her. “You’re gonna be okay, you can rest now,” she said as she put a hand on his cheek, gently caressing it before placing a soft kiss to it. And after that, the light on his chest went dim, and it took everything in Y/N not to scream like the day she found out Peter wasn’t coming home for dinner that night.

She felt Peter shaking around her, choking on sobs. She knew he would try and act as a support base for her, and he always liked to put others before himself. But she just held onto him, her hands going up to his messy hair and carting her fingers through the strands as a silent way to tell him that she was there for him too.

The Avengers and other heroes and warriors who had teamed up together to fight kneeled down, showing their respect to another beautiful life taken. The chaos in the warzone had gone quiet, a moment of silence taken in honour of Tony Stark.

And just like that, he was gone, just another figure of history in the textbooks. But to others he was a friend, he was a teammate, he was an idol, he was family. And God knows that he wouldn’t be forgotten for what he was, a hero.

~~~

The funeral occurred a couple of weeks later, only close friends and family were invited at the small gathering at the lake house where he lived with his family. It was odd, walking into the house and feeling so much dread in a place she considered a getaway just days before, a place that brought her such a feeling of happiness and relief.

She sat quietly in a soft chair in the corner, trying to process everything that was happening and everything that would come with it afterwards. She had just finished watching Tony’s video to his family, which Pepper insisted included her, and felt heartbroken at the thought that it would truly be the last time she saw him, ever again.

“Hey,” his soft voice said as Peter crouched down next to her, a hand on her knee as he gently squeezed. His eyes were red and puffy, just as hers were, and he wore a black and white suit that looked nice on him, though it seemed an inappropriate time to comment on it. “They’re starting the service soon, um, by the lake. I think we should go.” Y/N nodded, standing up from her chair and taking his hand in her own, finding comfort in his warm and soft grip.

The two walked out to the deck, one that she had so many memories on with the rest of the Stark family. Peter brought her to stand beside him and his aunt May, who smiled at Y/N and squeezed her hand. Y/N smiled back, but it came out as more of a grimace. They stood just behind Happy, Pepper and Morgan, as Pepper leaned down and set the wreath onto the lake, in the middle it had Tony’s original arc reactor from 2008, with words engraved into it.

‘Proof Tony Stark has a heart’

She found humour in the words but also wondered why anyone had ever thought otherwise. Sure he was a bit egotistical and petty sometimes, and often took to bragging when it came to being one of the smartest people on earth. But if you had known him like I had, she thought to herself, you’d know that he was one of the most caring people ever.

She watched as it floated away down through the calm river, eventually turning into a speck in the distant, covered by trees and the glistening light reflected off the water. Y/N gulped harshly as she tried to keep her tears in, not trying to break the strong personality she had set in stone for the past five years, but nonetheless couldn’t help a few of them slip from her eyes.

When the funeral had ended Y/N went to greet the others that had attended, wearing her best fake smile as people commented on how sorry they were for her loss and she did the same for them. She had gotten many embraces from people she did and didn’t know, and shared small laughs and memories with them.

After Y/N got tired of talking to everyone she tapped Peter, who had stayed by her side through the whole day, and told him she was going to get a drink of water. Peter had insisted on coming and held her hand as they walked away from the crowd and to the cute lakeside cottage, Y/N had considered home for so many years. On the small bench beside the door sat Happy with little Morgan in his lap, who sprung off and ran towards the girl with a bright smile on her face.

“Y/N! Y/N!” Morgan chanted happily as she ran closer, arms stretched out. Y/N smiled genuinely at the young girl and crouched down, picked her up as she ran into her chest and resting her on her hip. She brushed her nose against her soft cheek and placed a kiss upon it.

“Hi, baby,” Y/N said as she bounced Morgan. Peter looked at Morgan with a grin as well, since it was honestly astounding how similar she was to her father. Morgan giggled and played with Y/N’s hair as they had a small conversation and Peter could only watch on in awe. Then Y/N turned Morgan to face Peter. “You remember who this is, don’t you? It’s uncle Peter!” Y/N said, looking at Morgan and then smiling up at Peter, who felt like he was about to cry again just hearing those words.

“Spidey! Spidey!” Morgan screeched happily as she leaned over and made grabbing hands towards Peter, asking him to pick her up. Peter smiled widely before taking her from Y/N’s grip and holding her on his own hip now.

“Hey there, nice to finally meet you,” he said as he rocked slightly and Morgan placed her head on his shoulder, wrapping her small arms around his neck. Peter felt like he might explode from cuteness overload.

“Yeah. Daddy and Y/N says that-that you is the bestest,” she says as she played with the collar of Peter’s shirt. “You’re my favourite superhero! But after daddy.” She says as she smiled up at him. Peter raises his eyebrows and nods, letting out a laugh as he continued to talk with her. Soon the girl was falling asleep on Peter’s shoulder and the two walked inside to put her down for a nap.

Peter gently placed her down on her bed as he put a few stuffed animals by her side and covered her with the pink, fluffy blanket at the end of the bed. He kissed her forehead as Y/N went to place another on her cheek.

“Love you 3000,” she mumbled in her half-asleep state, and Y/N smiled, feeling tears brimming in her eyes as she replied.

“Love you infinity,” she says as she kissed her head. Morgan smiled in her sleepy state as the two stood up and exited the room, closing the door as quietly as they could to not stir her. Peter pulled Y/N into a hug, rocking them from side to side as he felt her tears start to make his shirt wet, but he didn’t seem to care. He kissed her temple and gently grabbed her chin, guiding her to look up at him as he smiled down at her.

“You know, I love you infinity,” he mumbled as he leaned down to brush against her lips. She laughed, his presence making her feel so much better since he really was her saviour. She shook her head, scoffing.

“You’re such a dork, Parker,” she said as she looked up at him, smiling for what felt like the first time in forever. She didn’t know how he had that effect on her, but then again she wasn’t complaining. God knows she needs a bit of relief. “I love you infinity too,” she replied after leaving him hanging for a while, and she stood up on her toes to press her lips to his, the kiss soft and short but still full of emotion.

As they broke apart, he pressed another kiss on her forehead and pulled her into his embrace. “You know what would make you feel better?” He said into her ear, which she replied with a ‘hm?’, asking for him to continue. “If we went home and binge-watched that Shane Dawson conspiracy theory video you told me about the other day.” Y/N scrunched up her eyebrows and looked up at him, a soft laugh passing her lips.

“Right now? Are you serious?” she said, shaking her head as she jokingly pushed his chest. He also chuckled a bit.

“What?” He asked, taking her hand and backing down the hallway. “C’mon, Y/N, you know how long I’ve waited for this video! You can’t just tease me with it!” Y/N raised her eyebrow as she watched Peter bounce a bit, begging her with his adorable brown puppy eyes to come with him.

“Well, you know what? There’s actually two, and they’re an hour and a half each” she whispered, causing Peter to groan and throw his head back. As he looked back up he was smirking, his tongue swiping over his teeth as he looked at her.

“You’re gonna be the death of me,” he whispered as he tugged on her hand and pulled her away, Y/N following a giggling mess as he brought her to Aunt May’s car and drove them back home, both excitedly discussing different videos and movies and other events that Peter had missed while he was gone.

Even though it meant sacrificing a lot, and even though she was still devastated about Tony and Nat’s death, Y/N felt as if everything would be okay as she lied on Peter’s chest, his strong arms wrapped securely around her as they watched the movie long conspiracy videos together. They exchanged small kisses and soft words, and even feeding popcorn to each other cause they were that grossly sweet kind of couple. And Y/N had finally found her hope.

The Darkness Between Stars

Charles, Erik and Moira arrive back at the base just as Shaw kills Darwin. In that moment, exposed to Darwin's terror and pain, Charles snaps, and lashes out in pure rage. When he comes to his senses, everyone he loves is terrified of him, and there's a soft, kind voice at the back of his mind telling him everything will be all right.

But how can it be when a man lies dead at his feet?

My contribution for the @cherikzine, Bookends of the Same Soul, featuring dark!Charles and a fix-it of Darwin’s death - thank you so much to the organisers, I had such a great time ^_^ If you still want to get merch and a pdf of all the incredible content, you can find it all here, please have a look! Thank you so much to @ikeracity for beta-ing! Read on AO3 if you prefer!

The silence in the car was more awkward than it ever had been between him and Erik, had been since they’d left Russia. For the thousandth time, Charles considered… just a little peek. Just to see what Erik was thinking. Instead, he stared out of the window at the gathering dark as they drove back to the base.

What he’d seen in Emma’s memories was terrifying. Fantastic, to be able to see the past through the mind of another telepath, but the things he’d seen were horrifying. Shaw truly was a maniac, and even Charles’ firmly held belief that everything could – should – be achieved without violence was shaken.

At least they’d been able to get an early plane home. For a while it had seemed like they’d have to spend days in Russia before catching a transport back, and with tensions high between the children and the agents, Charles hadn’t been keen on that idea. Perhaps he and Erik could talk before they were sent off again on their next mission, clear the air between them. Charles stole another glance at Erik’s stoic face, wished he dared hear his thoughts.

And then reeled as the wave of terror hit him. “Oh, God, Raven… Moira, please drive faster – Shaw’s at the base… he’s found the children.”

He didn’t know how he survived the next few minutes, even on that short last leg up to the base. He clung to Raven’s thoughts, trying his hardest to reassure her without letting his own abject terror through to her mind, trying to reach the others. Erik held his hand outstretched, his power at its limit, hauling the car along the road faster than it could possibly drive under its own steam.

They tumbled out of the car, raced through the corridors, past dead bodies that Charles could barely notice, so fixated was he on getting to the children, getting to Raven.

And then, as they ran into the grass square in front of the common room, they saw Darwin, his skin glowing, his body burning to ash, and Charles screamed, fell to his knees as he heard Darwin’s terrified voice in his mind. He frantically tried to reach out, his entire being focused on the young man in front of him, trying so hard to adapt, to survive. Dying.

Shaw turned to go even as Darwin’s body drifted as ash on the air. Turned with a smirk as Erik raced forward, screaming at him, and Charles knelt on the grass, dug his fingers in the earth and broke.

It’s not so hard, he told himself so many times. You just have to be better than them. You have to show them that they’re not getting to you, don’t be angry. Anger never solved anything. You have to be… serene. Smile. They want to see you weak, they want to see you broken, don’t let them see that. You are serenity. You are peace. You are calm, and they can’t reach you here.

Charles’ power flooded out of his body, lashing in every direction, as vicious as a solar wind, and the only thought in his mind was vengeance.

He stood as everyone around him fell to their knees, all but the man who’d killed one of his people, his children. Shaw stood where Charles held him, every line rigid and vibrating, every thought one of fear. Charles forced his mind into every nerve of his body, in control of every twitch. His grief burned through Shaw so that if he’d been able to move his mouth he would have screamed with pain, every fragment of his soul raw and exposed to Charles’ fury.

He forced Shaw’s muscles to do his bidding, moved his legs and turned him around. Forced him to walk up to face him as his rage continued to roar through the minds of everyone nearby.

It took an effort to wrestle back some control, to release his friends – his family. Erik and the others slumped, whimpering and exhausted, but Charles had no time to care for them right now, not when all his care and all his attempts at goodness had got Darwin killed.

He snarled at Shaw, then snapped his fingers, and Erik stood beside him, breathless and terrified. Charles turned to him, frowning. “You don’t need to be afraid. He’s harmless now.”

He forced Shaw to march jerkily over to Erik, standing him still in front of the boy he’d tortured. “He’s yours,” Charles said. “I know you want to kill him. I know what you were planning all that time. I’ll hold him still, you can put the coin through his head now.”

“Charles,” whispered Erik, turning distraught eyes on him.

“What are you waiting for?” Charles snapped.

There was something prickling at the back of his mind, soft fingers, a butterfly emerging, and he shook it off. Twisted his grip on Shaw’s muscles so he fell to his knees at Erik’s feet. Erik staggered backwards, horrified.

“Do it!” Charles yelled, and Erik flinched. Turned his face away, but not before Charles saw the tears forming in his eyes. It infuriated him. “He’s here! He’s yours, kill him, isn’t that what you wanted? He killed your mother, he killed Darwin!”

--going on where am I—

Charles shook his head hard, trying to dispel the gentle sensation in the back of his skull. There was no time for gentle, no time for kind, not when men like Shaw still existed. Why was Erik not doing what he’d always wanted to do? Charles was helping him! Making it easy for him!

“Charles, please,” Raven whimpered.

Charles turned his snarling face on her and she cringed back. Something flared in his mind, something howled in anguish and wept, and the soft sensation held it, gathered it close. Charles wiped his face, forced back the sob, embraced the rage, dug it out of him, filled his entire self up with it.

He reached out with a thought and ended Shaw’s life.

Shaw fell as Charles’ power retracted from his lifeless form. The world took a deep breath, watching him, and Charles screamed.

Hey, it’s OK, kid, you’re OK, come here, I’ve got you.

Charles fell to his knees. The sensation in his mind grew larger, warmer, spread through his mind and wrapped him close. “What are you?” he shouted, clutching at his head. “What are you?”

That’s it, let it all out, but try and aim away from the others, yeah? You’re scaring ‘em.

The burning was like dragon fire, his rage a flame through every pore of his body, but the long breath was ending, and he felt empty. He clutched at the ground and sobbed. “Who are you?”

It’s Darwin… I hope you don’t mind. Look, come on, now, let’s get you up. You’re alright, man.

Charles opened his eyes as horror rushed through him, dousing the rage. He stared around at the circle of people, at his family… at all of them watching him in terror. At Shaw lying dead on the ground, because of him.

“Charles,” Erik whispered, approaching him slowly, arms held out like Charles was a wild beast. And he was… what else could he be to have torn someone’s life from them like that? What kind of monster was he? How could any of them stand to look at him?

Because he was a danger to them. They couldn’t afford to look away, they had to watch him to keep safe, of course. Charles clutched at his chest as the hole appeared inside of him, pain and grief and guilt burrowing deeper into his flesh than anything he’d ever felt. He stumbled to his feet, and Erik, strong, powerful Erik who wasn’t afraid of anything, flinched back from him.

Charles couldn’t hold himself together. He felt the fragments of his soul shattering further, ground to powder, and he ran from their fear, from everything that wasn’t hatred, because they should hate him. He was a monster. There was no way back from this.

***

You don’t want to do that, man.

Charles jumped and pressed the heels of his hands into his eye sockets, trying to stop the continuous flow of tears. “It’s for the best,” he said, and turned the key in the ignition.

You know, I’m starting to figure this whole stuck-in-your-brain thing, Professor – I’ll make you come back.

Charles slumped over the wheel and let himself succumb to sobs, his body shaking, curling into itself.

Darwin’s presence in the back of his mind seemed to pulse affection through him. You’re alright, Prof. There you go. You’ve had a real rough day, huh?

“Please, please don’t be kind to me. I don’t deserve anything like that.”

And what gave you that idea? Darwin asked, a gentle frown in his voice.

Charles took a shuddering breath. “I killed a man… I just… I ended someone’s life.”

He felt the impression of a shrug. He had just killed me so… excuse me if I’m not mourning the guy.

“I hurt the others,” he whispered. “I… I lost control, I hurt all of them. I’m a monster.”

No, you’re not, Darwin said, and Charles could hear his conviction, just couldn’t accept it. I’m not saying that it’s OK to lash out like that - it’s not - but you’re not a monster.

Charles just wept, wishing he could believe him.

You know, I can feel you being all self-loathing, right? C’mon, enough of that. Plenty of people in the world who’ll hate you, you don’t have to do the job for them.

“I just… he just grabbed you… forced you to swallow all that energy and…” Charles gulped. “Oh God, are you OK, Darwin? I’m so sorry, I’m being so self-centred, and you actually… you died.”

Darwin took a deep breath. Or it sounded like he did, strange, the things a mind becomes accustomed to. Well… I thought I had, Darwin said. I thought that was it, no way could I adapt to that. But then there was your mind, so different to all the others, so much more space, and I just… I didn’t even mean to. My consciousness just hitched a lift.

“I’m so sorry this happened to you, Darwin.” He shook his head. “I wish we’d arrived sooner, we could have… could have done something.”

Looks like you already did something, Darwin said, amused.

The cold, sick guilt flooded through him again, and he lifted his feet onto the seat, wrapping his arms around his knees and wishing he could disappear, be nothing.

No, you don’t, Darwin said briskly. I’ve done that, and it’s better to be here.

Charles tried to control his breathing, tried to hold back his selfish tears, because Darwin was dead (was he?), and Charles had no right to feel like this, no right at all!

That’s not what I meant, Darwin sighed. I’m just… trying to make you feel better. But sometimes that means allowing yourself to feel worse for a little while. You don’t have to pretend that you’re OK.

Somewhere under Charles’ ribs, a leak turned into a flood. Charles sank into it, drowned in it, and yet somewhere around him he felt kind thoughts, patience and comfort. He didn’t think he’d ever felt that in his life.

***

A sharp tapping woke Charles, and he startled hard, banging his head on the car window.

“Why are you sleeping in the car?” Erik asked.

Charles opened the door and climbed out. He stood in front of Erik, his head bowed. “Uh… I didn’t mean to,” he said.

Erik stood, silent. Charles shored up his mental defences. He didn’t want to hear anything, none of what they were thinking about him. Especially Erik. As much as he deserved it, he couldn’t bear to hear Erik hate him.

“We need to leave,” Erik said at last. “Moira’s trying to clear things with the CIA, but there’s a lot of ill-will towards us.” He cleared his throat and shifted on his feet. “Ah… we need to… Moira suggested it would be best if they didn’t remember us.”

Charles blinked up at him. “Oh… yes, of course. I’m…” He swallowed down his immediate question – how could they possibly trust him? With any of this? Why weren’t they hounding him out of there? “Umm… yes, lead on.”

Erik nodded and turned, sharp and jerky. Charles followed, hoping that somehow he could make up for what he’d done.

See? That wasn’t so bad, was it? Darwin said.

“If you say so,” Charles murmured.

Are you going to be able to do what they want? Take everyone’s memories away? You’ve got a hell of a headache brewing up here.

Charles would cope. He would cope with a lot worse than some piddling migraine if only to win back a modicum of the trust he’d betrayed.

***

“They need somewhere to go,” Moira said afterwards, brisk and practical, and if Erik hadn’t dived into his life in a blaze of fire and passion and fury, Charles thought he could have loved her. “We can’t stay here, but a lot of these kids have nowhere else to go.”

Charles would have checked it with Raven. He wanted to check a lot of things with his sister, but she was staying well away from him. He couldn’t blame her. “I have somewhere we can stay,” he said softly. “If nobody… if that’s OK?”

Moira looked at him, met his gaze, and nodded. “Thanks, Charles. Don’t tell me where it is – plausible deniability and all that.”

She turned to go, and Charles clenched his fists. “Moira, wait.”

She stopped at the door. “It’s OK, Charles. Really. I understand.”

He hung his head and resisted the urge to wrap his arms around his chest as she walked out.

You know you have to tell them about me, Darwin said.

Charles swallowed hard. “How do I tell them? They can’t possibly believe me - I wouldn’t believe me. They’ll think I’m lying just to be able to stay around them!”

Darwin shot him a buzzing sensation, a bit like a pinch. You’re making an awful lot of assumptions. How about you give them a chance?

“I should give them a chance to get away from me,” he muttered, but he knew Darwin was right. It wouldn’t be fair on any of them to grieve Darwin when he knew he was still here.

They were gathered in the parking lot, every one of them with bowed heads. Alex was holding a hat, just a battered up old flatcap, and the way he was clutching it, Charles knew it must have belonged to Darwin.

He cleared his throat as he came closer, glancing up for just a moment, then ducking his head again. “I, uh… have something to tell you all,” he said. He could barely raise his voice above a whisper. “When Darwin was…” He trailed off. “Umm… his consciousness seems to have… latched on to me.”

There was silence for a long moment. It was Hank who broke it. “Well, he did say he could adapt to anything.”

The group seemed to let out a long breath. “What does this mean?” Sean asked. “Is he stuck there? Are you just gonna be, like, two people forever?”

I think my body will start reforming soon enough, Darwin said, sounding so ridiculously casual about it all.

“He thinks he’ll get his body back,” Charles said. “It has to reform, so it may take some time. I just… I wanted you all to know.”

“I bet we could speed it up,” Hank said, grabbing the hat from Alex’s hands. “I know a guy, McCulloch – he’s been doing some incredible work with stem cell research. If we can get Darwin’s DNA, we might be able to give his body a head start.”

Alex looked up at Hank, and then at Charles, his eyes red-rimmed and desperate. “Is he really safe?” he asked Charles.

Charles nodded. “As safe as he can be,” he admitted.

Alex let out a long breath, and the slightest hint of a smile formed on the corners of his lips. “Wow. That’s… yeah, OK. Wow.”

Hank put the hat in a bag that Moira handed him, and rushed up to Charles to tell him all he knew about this new technology in Ontario, and how if they could get an egg cell, perhaps they could replace its nucleus with that of a cell found in a piece of Darwin’s hair, or something. Charles smiled up at him, relieved beyond belief that at least one of his friends had overcome their fear of him. The power of science.

Even so, the drive to Westchester was awkward at best. Charles was still determinedly keeping his telepathy clamped tight, but he could still hear some of the awe that leaked through when Charles led them up to the mansion, his head bowed under the weight of his own childhood memories.

At least here there would be plenty of space to hide. That had always been the one advantage of this cold, heartless place.

***

I wonder if it is actually possible for me to die

, Darwin said casually as they watched Hank set up the pioneer samples of human cloning.

It’s something I’ve wondered for a while.

“I suppose you’d even adapt to ageing,” Charles murmured, his eyes fixed on the petri dish. Hank glanced at him strangely, but left him to it, as most people did since… everything.

The dynamic of the group had changed in subtle ways. Angel was gone, whipped away along with the other mutant by Shaw’s teleporter. Moira had gone back to the CIA. Alex followed Hank constantly, demanding information about the procedure, asking for the chances of success, fetching and carrying for him and trying to predict Hank’s needs so he could bring Darwin back that little bit sooner.

Look at him, Darwin sighed in Charles’ mind. He’s looking fine today. Someone should really tell him.

I’m not flirting with your boyfriend for you, Charles replied firmly. You’ll just have to wait and do it yourself.

Charles slipped out of the lab and through the corridors, a ghost in his own house again. It was a role he’d worn smooth over his entire childhood, easy to return to. Raven seemed to have done much the same – Charles had barely seen her over the last few days.

It was Erik who’d taken on Charles’ old role. Erik chivvied the children to dinner, encouraged Hank out of the lab, suggested they start to train their mutations, learn their limits and stretch them. He was gruff and reluctant, where Charles had been eager, but he was a natural leader. It was mere days before everyone looked for Erik when they needed something.

Charles wasn’t sure whether to be glad, or desperately sorry. He’d stolen Erik’s purpose away from him when he killed Shaw, and he could feel how lost Erik was some days – even with his telepathy bound tightly around him. At least being in charge of all these untrained mutants was giving him something to do. But it certainly can’t have been what Erik had in mind when he joined them. Had Charles trapped him in this new role, too?

***

Charles, Darwin called, and Charles woke up with a gasp.

“Darwin?”

The voice came again, from far away, and Charles realised that Darwin’s warm, comforting presence wasn’t in the back of his mind anymore.

Charles threw clothes on and raced downstairs, into the lab. “Darwin? Darwin, are you in here?”

In here! he called, and Charles pulled the door open on the incubator. There, in the petri dish, sat Darwin, only an inch tall.

So, turns out my DNA doesn’t need that many cells to get started on adapting, Darwin said cheerfully. Don’t suppose you could let me out?

Charles laughed. The muscles in his face that pulled his lips into a smile ached from disuse. He put the petri dish on the floor, lifted the lid and stepped back. Darwin started to grow – within moments he was standing in front of him with his old wicked grin, and Charles wept.

“Hey, Prof, don’t cry now, c’mon. It’s all going to be alright.”

Charles wrapped his dressing gown around him and led him into the kitchen, calling out for Alex and the others in a voice still afraid to be raised. They emerged one by one, staring at Darwin in wonder and joy, crying and hugging him, and in Alex’s case, refusing to let him go.

Charles stepped back and missed him, missed that easy affection in the back of his mind. And then instantly felt incredibly selfish. God, he disgusted himself, he truly did! He turned to slip away, and bumped straight into Erik.

“Sorry,” he murmured, hunching his shoulders.

Erik put his hand up to balance Charles. They stood awkwardly close for a moment, not looking at each other properly. Charles hated it, hated what he’d done to them, to their easy friendship. To the children’s innocence. He took a sharp breath and tried to slip past.

Erik tightened his grip on Charles’ arm. Charles looked up, wary, meeting someone’s eye for the first time in days. “I should…” Erik frowned. “We should talk.”

Charles slumped further, but nodded. Surely they were going to ask him to leave now? He deserved it, anyway.

They walked together out into the garden, down the wide steps and towards the balustrade. Charles leaned against it, staring out over the distant satellite dish in silence, trying to work up the courage to speak. How does one even apologise for something so huge?

“I’m sorry, Charles,” said Erik, and Charles’ head snapped up to stare at him.

“What on earth do you have to be sorry for?”

Erik hunched his shoulders, fiddling with that coin of his again. “I failed you. You gave me the chance to do what I’ve been working towards for half of my life, and I… I choked.” He swallowed. “You must think I’m such a coward.”

Charles grabbed his hand. “I don’t, God, Erik, how could I think that of you?”

Erik frowned. “I had Shaw right in front of me and I still couldn’t do it. You had to do it for me.” He looked up at Charles, meeting his gaze with deep, sad eyes. “I never wanted you to be in that position – it was my dirty work to do, I wanted to keep you out of it. All of you, and now…”

“I thought you must hate me,” Charles blurted. He let out a long breath. “I keep preaching this… pacifism, and then I went and used my telepathy in the most horrific way. I invaded all your minds, I hurt you, I terrified the children and then I… I went and killed him. In front of everyone, I just… I killed him.”

Charles started trembling, the shock of what he’d done washing over him once again, only this time, he was alone in his mind. There was no-one to comfort him, no-one to pull him back from the horror – but then Erik’s arms were around him, and he was so warm, his mind blanketing Charles’, even as he sobbed so hard he could barely stand up on his own.

Erik’s fingers stroked through Charles’ hair as he cried, hushing gently. He didn’t try to say anything, just stayed, comforted him in a way Charles had thought couldn’t possibly be real, patient and compassionate and protective.

“I’m sorry,” Charles whispered at last.

“No more apologies,” said Erik, his voice almost as rough as Charles’. “And no more hiding yourself away when the children need you, either. Your sister needs you.”

“I didn’t think they’d want me anywhere near them, not after they had to see that.”

Erik held his face, tilted it back so he looked up at him. “You did it to protect them, they all know that.”

“And I hurt them in the process – I had no control,” he reminded him.

“Then learn control,” Erik shrugged. “Or rather, learn to embrace that rage, direct it and use it. Don’t pretend it doesn’t exist.”

Charles sighed and nodded, leaning against Erik’s chest. He wondered how long Erik would allow him to stay this close. When he’d push him away, clingy, needy Charles.

“Never,” said Erik fiercely.

Charles’ head snapped up. “Oh, God, I was projecting, I’m so sorry, Erik, I just—”

“Stop assuming I want to push you away,” Erik said, wrapping his arms around him.

Charles relaxed once more, his body softening in increments as he leaned into Erik’s embrace, resting his face against Erik’s chest. Erik pressed his lips to the top of Charles’ head. The world turned on its axis, and the sun would rise again.

“You were right about him,” Charles whispered after a long time. He gathered his courage and pressed closer, craving that contact.

Erik didn’t push him back. Instead, he pulled him closer and ran his fingers down Charles’ spine. Charles felt like he was feeling the sun for the first time in his life. “What do you mean?” Erik murmured.

“I thought we could stop Shaw peacefully. Put him in prison, make him answer for his crimes, but… I saw him, all of him. There was no part of him that could feel any remorse for what he’d done.”

Erik sighed, cupping Charles’ head in one large hand. “I’m just so sorry you had to do something so against your morals. It was my dirty work and I… I failed you.”

Charles pulled back and held his face between both hands. “No – Erik, not at all. You took on this burden, but it should never have been yours. I don’t…” He took a deep breath and closed his eyes. “I don’t regret killing him,” he admitted. “I regret hurting you all, I regret losing control like that, but… I think it was the only thing that could have been done.”

Erik shook his head. “I never wanted you to be exposed to it. I’m already broken, I was prepared to kill him.”

Charles felt something settle inside his chest, a serenity like moonlight on the great ocean of rage he’d been suppressing all his life. “Shaw didn’t deserve that from you,” he said softly. “He’d already taken so much from you. Why should he have that as well?”

Erik held his gaze and pressed Charles fingers up to his temple.

“Are you sure?” Charles whispered.

Erik nodded, and Charles’ powers fell into his beautiful mind with a gasp like he’d found his way home. A swirling, wordless maelstrom of grief and vulnerability and hope, of possibility, of a need to protect Charles, and a desire to be able to rely on Charles, equals at last. And under it all, a great pool of rage, and a warm serenity, and two men at the balance point, holding each other.

Book 1 Chapter 29 The blade of Marmora

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=COB6-PrmqjE

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dd212H6kjEQ

Allura found herself in the middle of a very familiar flowery field. She looked around the field looking for father or her mother but there was no one there.So she started walking in a random direction in the seemingly endless field of flowers. As she walked through the fields of her home world she thought what the other would think of her home. How would her parents react to her new friend. Then she remembered that she was ten thousand of years old and that even if Zarkon never died and became evil.she would have never meet any of her team.An most of them would only know her from history books and maybe some of them wouldn't have been born. This made her a upset and then she became more upset because She was one hundred and twenty five when she was put to sleep coran was six hundred and forty and nothing was wrong with that because altean should live for about a thousand years. Shay and rax would live as long as her. but the rest of her friend would die before she would made it to her two hundredth birthday even jay who was half altean would only live to be four to five hundred if he was luck. She couldn't help be feel tears running down her face as she thought about this an how lonely it would be and how she would survive it.

Maybe she would look into what kept Zarkon alive for the passed ten thousand years. She continued to Walk and as she did she saw something in the distains.So she pick up the pace and ran towards it . As she ran she noticed that’s she was looking at the back of a the statue. despite it being only the back it looked familiar and that was weird. She started to slow down she saw a stair case and started walking up it her foot steps echoed through out the empty world. when she made it to the top she saw flowers all around the statue. she had to walk around it as she did she started to notice that the statue was of her” Ok this is weird but that’s ok this is a dream” She thought to herself .Ok no this is not ok even if it was a dream the amount of detail on this statue was super uncanny. when she finally made to the front she saw hundreds of flowers in front of a morally she could read what it said saw she walked toward it and what she read punched her right in the heart

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ecdYeRJYdzE

“This morally is to remember the life of Princess Allura. The woman who died to not only save are universe but millions more. She was kind, loved, A strong leader, a close friend, a great sister, A loved daughter, A badass bitch who took nobodies shit, the blue paladin , the first person to see me as a person not a machine , the love of my life, an amazing Aunt, the one who gave me a purpose in life, the savior of my home, the only boss I respected , My best friend, But most of all she was family and I pains us that she’s gone an could never see the universe she worked so are to save. So its up to us to keep her dream alive

If she wasn’t crying before she was defiantly crying now. What could have lead up to this how did she die. this dream was starting to feel more like a memory the longer she was in it and that scared her. As she was thinking about this she heard foot steps come from behind her. She turned to look at who was behind her and what she was herself a older version of herself which was weird because she was dead in this world. but there she was older with a few scare on her face a burn mark on the left side of her face, her hair was short and she was wearing a pink version of her dress and holding a bouquet of Altean flowers

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PoAeFpUB1hA

As she looked at her older self her older self started walking toward her with a bouquet of flower in her hands. She watch as older self walk and noticed that she was no longer at her memorial . Now she was at a beach the sand was well pick and the water was orange and she watch her older self start walking toward several tombstones. She watched as her older self placed a flower by each one of the head stones then she pulled a worn out note book from one of her dress pockets opened and started reading . But there was a small problem Allura couldn’t hear older self as they read so she walked next to her olders self to read what she was reading and saw that the book was blank then she look to the head stone but before she could see who those belonged to Her older self fell to the floor crying

“ Why dose everyone I love leave me. Why did they deserve to die this was my fault i’m the reason the banished were released in the first place I should be dead not them Why them “ Older Allura cried

Allura watched her older self cry for a few more before she turned back to look at the head stones she could read and read them out to her self

“ Takashi Shirogane, Adam Shirogane, Hunk garret , Joseph A. Sorin, Pidge holt, Lance McClain and Keith kogane” Her heart was torn in two as she continued to read each name of her friends, She started to wonder if this was a dream or a memory because it felt so real when she was walking through the flowery and she felt like she had been to this beach before but she couldn’t tell when or where she had seen it

“ Why didn’t you save them”

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YYb9kSCkjE8

Allura turned and looked at her older self just standing there their head done looking at the floor “ What did you say “ Allura asked her older self

“WHY DIDN’T YOU SAVE THEM !!!!”Her older self yelled ,

Allura looked at her older self and saw that her eyes were pitch black and she was walking toward her slowly. Allura started walking backwards scared that she might be attacked by her older self “ I’m sorry I don’t know what happened I only just got here “ She said as she was backing up she felt some one grab here leg and started to pull on it. So she looked down and saw Shiro half melted body sticking out of the ground there eye were also pitch black. Terror filled Allura as she watch as Adam came out looking similar to Shiro. Then came Hunk ,followed Jay and everyone else as they all started to grab her legs and started pulling her down into the ground

“WHY DIDN’T YOU SAVE US Allura. WHY DID YOU LET US DIE Allura “ They all said in unison as they were dragging her into the ground.

Allura struggled against all of them pulling on her but half of her body was already submerged in the ground and she was starting to panic as the rest of her head was being pulled under the ground in to darkness . She felt that she was no longer being pull but now she found herself floating in complete darkness. she looked around she opened her mouth to say something but no words came out. Allura looked for an exit to this place and saw more darkness. But then she heard the sound of something tearing behind her so she looked to see a giant crimson eyes starring at her followed by the sound of more things tearing apart and more eyes appeared each one a different colors . She felt unnerved by all of this but it got worse as the eyes started laughing loudly and the laughter kept getting louder and louder the longer she floated there then the eye in front of her started to tear out reveling teeth and a voice came out

“ it’s time to eat “ the eyes said before lunging at her

Allura wake up screaming and crying. allura was breathing heavily as her heart was racing the she felt something on her shoulder she jumped and looked ad saw the mice all looking at her worried

“ Sorry for worrying you all it was just a bad dream. Nothing to worry about my little friends” Allura said wiping away the tears and petting the mice as they were comforting her As she was leaving her room to take to Coran about her dream. But before she could do that her phone chimed with a message from Adam saying that Shiro was awake

Some time later in the green lions hanger Allura walked in and saw most of the crew standing there waiting for her to walking. But the moment she walked into the hanger. Allura had a flask back to her dream and saw everyone with pitch black eyes and half melted causing her to step back in fear before everyone turned back to normal.

“ Allura are you alright?” Shay asked worried for her friend

“ i’m fine thanks for asking shay “ Allura lied “ So Shiro your up “

“ Yes I have and I’ve been fill in on what has happen the last three day by beau so you don’t need to worry about that .But I need to ask Why did it take you getting captured for us to learn that Zarkon was once the black lions previous pilot?” He asked

“like the fact that Your father and the other paladins blow up planet Daidazaal “ Adam said

“Or the fact that zarkon still had a connection with the black lion” Keith said

“I’m sorry for I just what to protect you all from voltron’s dark passed. So you could form the bond with your lions with out any problems and the fact that zarkon was the past black paladin doesn’t matter anymore because your the next black paladin “ she said trying to reassure Shiro and everyone else who looked disappointed with her

“ well the black lion doesn’t think saw. But that doesn’t matter right now because I remembered something important bout how I escaped from the empire a Galran man helped me “ Shiro explained to Allura everything that had happen during his escape and what the man had told him and explained why his arm was linked up to pidge’s computer and beaus current body

Allura face was a mixture of confusions, Anger and fear .mostly Fear because maybe the galra that helped shiro might be leading them into a trap “ Ok I was with making an allies Isara and the Queen slayer because Jay had convinced me after he and the others fought the Red Queen. But one random Galra who just so happened to be there to help you and told you about this location to met him there but there incepted with a extremely complex encryption \ code that needs three people to decrypt it and I know you all to well by now to know you all want too go there to see if this one galra can help us. By the goddess this sounds like A jay plan” Allura said as she rubbed the bridge of her nose

“ Yes it does but we need to find out if we can trust this man” Shiro said

“ Ok I will trust you on this but if it turns out to be a trap I will never let you live this down. You know what where is he I want to hear is opinion on this matter

“ Jay is grading the homework the boy have hand in ” beau said

“ I just texted him about everything and he said it was a bad plan but ”Lance said as he was looking at his bright orange phone

“See even he knows this is a bad plan “Allura said

“But do we have a better plan at the moment we know Zarkon is tracking us through the black lion. So we can’t just go straight to the rebel base with out Zarkon following .So maybe this person can help us ?” Shiro said

“ Alright then I’m not happy about this but i will follow your lead on this one but if this turns out to be a trap” Allura said wanting Shiro to finish her sentences

“ it’s on me it know” Shiro said

an hour later Else where

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fqZxVCbYXMw

Jay was sitting at the kitchen table of the Prometheus He was wearing ateal tank top and pair of gray sweat pants his hair was tied in a bun and wearing his glass. He was finish grading all the work the boy had finish he had neglected to do this earlier meaning all the for Fitz had done when he first got here was starting to pile up now along with Bastion and Usamu start home school tomorrow he really need to grade this.But then his music stopped by an alarm going off telling him it was time to pull dinner out of the oven. Thank you hunk for the cook book. He thought to himself as he pulled the lead of f the pot full of crabs and craw fish that he bought from haven. He empty the pot of remaining water and placed the contains of the pot in a huge bowl and realized that he made to much Hey maybe. Ace and the other would like to join then for dinner. He cleared the table of all of all the tables and papers. then he walked out of the kitchen and leaned over that railing and yell

“Boys time for dinner!!!!” he yelled from the balcony of the second floor only to be meet by silence . Jay noticed that the hanger bay door was open. So he started to walk down the stairs into the living room and out into the hanger bay. Jay saw the familiar blue moving walls that belonged to the wormhole meaning that they were moving to a specific place he didn’t know where. But that didn’t matter right now . He started walking towards the hanger bay door knowing that the boys would be there looking out into the worm hole. He walked passed to two parked rebel ships and found three boy standing there looking in aw at the bright blue wormhole long with Ace , N7,Rolo and Nyma

Jay cleared his throat Getting the attention of everyone “ it dinner time boys”

“AW Come on dad can’t we eat after we leave the wormhole and see where were going “ Bastion said

“Please” Usamu

”Yeah let’s see where were going then will eat” Fitz pleaded

“ Yeah man let them see where were going “ Rolo said jokingly

“ Yeah Dad lets see where this wormhole leads” Nyma said playfully

“ Don’t start you two” Jay said as he tapped his foot Looking at the two “Now it’s dinner time boys”

“AAaawwww” the three boys groaned

“ Don’t you groan at me your three. I have done that most of my childhood and it never worked so don’t waste your breath on groaning. “ Jay said a little annoyed

“Yeah waste your breath on this “ Ace said as the castle of lion had arrived at their destination which was a crazy field full of huge blue crystals

“ Ok dinner can wait this is pretty cool” Jay said just in aw of what was in front of him

“ i have seen hundreds of crazy thing in my life but this this is breath taking” Ace said

Jay felt some one pull one his hand so he looked over and saw Usamu “What is little buddy ?” he asked

“ Can we eat dinner out here with the other” Usamu asked with the most innocent look on his face

Jay looked do at the his youngest son with his big puppy dog eyes Jay couldn’t saw no to that face the he looked to his other sons who were doing the same thing “Ok just stop looking at me with those puppy dog eyes” He said as he put his had hand on Usamu face saw he would stop starring at him

“ YAAaY” the three brother yelled

Back on the bridge

“There seem to be no sigh of life here Sorry love” Adam said as he was looking at the bio scanner

“ Maybe number 5′ and 7′s decryptions was wrong” Coran said

“ Hey are decryption is solid “ pidge said angrily

“Why am I number 7″” matt said sadly to himself

“ then why isn’t anyone here then” lance asked

“ They may be hiding in side the crystals “ Keith asked

“ There is a one hundred percent chance they aren’t hiding in the crystals because they are highly - Airlock four as been forcedly open ” beau when quite for a few second before coming back yelling “ intrude alert intrude alert”

“ Alright team suit up” Shiro said

“ I have notified the other” Matt said as he ran out of the room bow staff in hand

Back in the hanger bay

Everyone commutator when off telling them of the intruder

“ Boys Get back to the house now” Jay said in a more serious tone then usual as he grabbed his Bayard of the ground

“ Ok Dad” Bastion said as instinctually grabbed Usamu by the hand and ran toward the Prometheus

“ What’s going on Dad ?” Fitz asked confused

“ So one broke into the ship and please for your own safety and for your brother get back to the house “ Jay said as he and the other were heading out

“ Don’t die out there “ Fitz said as he ran back to the ship

“I will ” Jay replied as he left the hanger bay with the other,

The five were walking down the hall wall weapons drawn. As they walked the sound of blaster fire,the sound of metal hit the ground and metal slamming against metal. the fire ran towards the sounds an turned the corner Saw several sentries cut to ribbons and Matt who was fighting off a tall masked figure wielding a curved blade that was cutting into Matt’s bow staff

“ Matt get down “ Ace yelled as she and the other raised there blasters and opened fire

Matt let go off his bow staff and hit the ground as the bolts started flying only to miss or be deflected by the hood man. But as the team kept on firing the masked man started to move back wards as he block bolt after bolt and he was far enough away matt tried grabbed his staff and swung it at the figures feet hoping to knock of balance but the moment he tried to grab it the staff was kick up into the air and was grabbed and as the masked figure spun around an throw it at the fire squad and nailed N7 in the chest knocking her back in to a wall. Matt felt anger rise in him as he watch his friend hit the ground So when the bolts stopped flying He jumped up and throw a punch only for it to be caught followed by be throw just like his bow staff into his teammate knock over Jay and Nyma.

As Rolo and Ace charged the masked man. Ace had pulled out her own collapsible bow staff and swung them only to be meet by the figure’s blade. As two were now locked with each other.Rolo land a hard kick to the figure’s side Causing the figure to let out a groan in pain.But Before Rolo could pull his metal leg back felt the figure grab it then he felt his leg being twisted and felt it being disconnected from his body causing him to stumble back do to the sudden loss of balance. Ace watch as her teammate fell back follow by a sudden push of force knock her backward follow by a Rolo’s disconnected foot hitting her in the stomach knocking her to the ground .

“ Hey Shit head Look over here” Matt yelled

The masked figure looked toward him and the other four standing there with their blaster now locked on him with half a dozen sentries standing along side them followed by the sound of more people running toward the area. the masked figure looked behind him and Saw the red blue and yellow paladin turning the corner Bayard drawn . then he looked down the hall next to him and saw the Green and Black paladin with two balmerans and another human

the black paladin then walked up to him an asked“So are you the one who save me “

The mask figure removed his hood and his mask disappeared to reveal a galran man. But before he could speck. Allura pushed passed Shiro An Adam and slammed him into the Wall with a huge and violent thud

“Who are you and why are you here “Allura yelled a little more aggressive then normal

“ woah boss calm down we do need to kill the guy”

“Yeah Allura that sound like it her the poor guy

“ Allura calm down this is the guy that saved me “ Shiro said trying to calm the princess down

Allura looked to Shiro then to the other looking at her a little surprised by her sudden burst of violence , She realized this and let the man go

Sometime later everyone was standing around the cuffed galra

“ Ok who are you and Why are you here” Allura asked with an edge of anger in her voice

“ my name is Ulaz “

“ And why are you here” Allura said with a little bit of edge to her voice

“ Ok Allura lets calm down “ Shiro said

“ And lets not repeat questions please”

“ first Jay be quite and second I will not calm down when there is a quiznaking Galra on my ship that could have killed us” Allura said

“ if I wanted to kill you youd by dead already “ Ulaz said

“Are your Galra threats supposed to win my trust “

“Hey Princess lets no antagonize this guy please” Hunk asked just a little uneasy

“ Hunk can you please not act so scared in front of are prisoner. it makes us look lame” Lance said

“ Ok Where are you from and are there more of you?” Adam asked ignoring Everyone else conversion

“ I am alone on this Base “ Ulaz said calmly

“ What Base there was nothing here when we got here.” Pidge said

“ move your ship deeper in to the cluster and we will find my base“

“you think your going to get me to destroy are ship just because you say so .”Allura said

“ I agree with Allura this doesn’t feel fright” Keith said

“ I agree with Keith but he’s right this looks like a trap also again there was no base on that showed up on the scanner” lance said

“Maybe there bending reality “Matt said

“ I mean it’s not out of the realm of possibility we have dealt with weirder things while fighting the empire” Ace said

“ Yeah but they would need to have advanced tech which they have but they would need a molecular storage unit which Shiro arm dose have. But it would need to be hooked up to a massive power sources” Hunk said

“ Maybe the base is power by an advanced fusion engine “ Jay said followed by beau over the comms

“I have detected a spatial disturbance “ beau said from the bridge Causing everyone to look at Allura wait for her to give an order

sigh” Coran move us in slowly” She said annoyed by this new development.

“ Alright Princess” coran said as he slowly moved the castle of lions closer the disturbance and the moment they got right up next to the disturbance space seemly swallows the castle of lion into a weird purple space with a base in the middle of it

“ Holy shit you were was right matt” Jay said surprised

“ There bending space this is amazing ” pidge said just as surprised

“Now that you see my base do I have your trust?” Ulaz asked

“ For now. “ Allura said

Later in the red lion all five of the paladins,Adam and Ulaz were flying toward the small base at the center

“ So there a more Galra that aren’t with the empire” Keith said just starring at the base in from of him

“ oh have you met other members of my order” Ulaz asked surprised

“ No we met a group called the Queen slayers have you heard of them?’ lance asked from the back of the red lions cock pit

“ Only by reputation “ Ulaz said as the red lion landed next to a small ship

As everyone started walking out of the red lion’s cock pit . Shiro before leaving he contacted

“ Hey Jay Just in case this is a trap Cab you and Val flying around cloaked I just want a little bit of coverage ” Shiro asked just a little worried

“ the moment you guys left the castle We left the castle. An it’s good to see that your just as consumed as me” Jay said as The Valkyrie felt the space pocket

the team walked into the base and followed Ulaz to the control room of the base

“ So what are you doing here any way and what is your orders name” Shiro asked

“ We are called the blade of Marmora We are trying to return the Galra Empire to it’s Former glory by taken down the current Empire from the inside” Ulaz said as he was tipping into the console he was in front of

“ Wait you have agents on the inside of the empire” hunk said suspired

“ Wait are you Guy the reason the Blue lion was on Earth “Adam asked

“ Yes one of are agent had to relocate the Blue lion when Zarkon had found it Twenty years back” Ulaz said replied

Shiro and Adam looked straight at each other the moment Ulaz said . Then they looked straight at Kieth who was just starring at Ulaz Blade

“ Uh Ulaz what the blade on your back for ?”Keith asked

Ulaz grabed the blade an turned to face Keith with the blade in hand the blade was curved with a purple sigil on the hilt “ it a ceremonial Blade give to member of my order”

“ Neat “ Kieth said as Ulaz turned back to the console .

On the Edge of the Crystal field the Valkyrie sat a top of one of the bigger crystals in her Human form

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s7dTBoW5H9k

“ Do you need to eat so loudly”

“Yes I do Val I spend four Hours cooking this meal I will eat as loudly as I want but I will try for your sake “ He said as he bit down on A crabs Shell with a loud crush

“you did that on purpose “ She said

“Yes I did. Also where did you disappeared to yesterday after Fighting the Queen Once we landed you just flow off ?” Jay asked as he grabbed a crawfish from the box he packed for himself

“ I went to the red Queen’s corpse to see what I can get from it” She replied

“ did you get anything from it?”

“ Yes a new weapon from it’s just the same as the tail but as a whip“ Val said

“Ok then will test that out later. “ Jay said as he leaned back in his Chair as a Screen appeared warning them something was on it’s way here “ oh no here come trouble “jay said as a new robeast exited from warp half a mile away. It was just a giant head with a rocket engines on it back and bottom with small Arms.

“ Hey we got company “ Jay said over the come as he watch the robeast open it’s mouth and started to in haul Crystal

“Ok how do we handle this” Val asked as She was getting off the crystal and reactived the cloaking system

“ We distracted until the other get here “ Jay said as he move the Valkyrie closer to the robeast and fire three shots and quickly moved in deeper into the field of crystals as the shots land causing the robeast to look in the direction the shots were fired from and Saw that nothing was there only to be hit by three more shots. it turned it’s body opened it’s mouth and fired a massive beam of destructive force erupted from it’ s mouth

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p9YM1KyZ25s

“ oh shit “Jay said as he narrowly dodged the blasts And the resulting explosions the beam caused “Ok that’s new and we need to move “ Jay said as the cloak deactivated from the shock wave knocked it off line .Revealing the Valkyrie to the robeast.

The robeast opened it’s mouth again and started in hauling again pulling More crystal in to it’s mouth . the Valkyrie move to the side quickly to avoid being Suck into the robeast mouth. He fire a bolt into one of the crystals being sucked up causing a line of explosion leading start into the robeast mouth sending it backward. So it closed it mouth and Charged Straight toward the Valkyrie .Val took control and started moved deeper into the field as the robeast followed tanking ever explosion it caused as it slammed into ever crystal in it’s way

“ Jay where are you?” Shiro asked

“ I’m coming your way with a friend please get that shoulder cannon ready “ jay said

“ Ok” Hunk said as he slammed his Bayard in to the slot summoning the sun crusher

“ Wait what dose he mean by a friend” Lance asked As jay came from the cluster of crystal quickly followed by a huge explosion and the giant head robeast

“ Shoot it shoot it” Jay yelled as the Valkyrie noise dived down wards

Hunk fire the Cannon Straight into the robeast Face pushing it backwards into a cluster of crystal that exploded when the robeast collided with them leaving a smoke cloud obscuring the view of the robeast.

“Did we get it” Lance asked

“ Don’t stand still “Jay yelled as a purple light came from the smoke cloud and started pulling more crystal and Voltron long with them

Voltrons thruster roared to life and tried to get out of the robeast in hauling but only slowing down there decent into it’s maw.

“ Jay Help !!!” they all yelled

Jay Rocketed toward the Robeast and stabbed the Spears head into the right eye to no effected “Shit that did work I hope this whip helps” Jay said as he hit the new button on the table as a hilt appeared in The Valkyrie’s right hand followed by Val whipping her hand forwards send a red energy chain wrapping around the red lion and the moment that happened Jay fired up the engine flying passed Voltron Trying to pull them out of the tracked beam “ Come on Val” Jay groaned as he felt the beam chain being pulled taut

“ I’m giving it my All” she groaned

“Pidge Shield “ Shiro yelled

“On it” Pidge said as the back wings detacked and made the shild Followed by a particle beam slammed into the robeast maw cause a inter Explosion knock it out for a few second Allow Pidge to Slammed the into it Low jaw Followed be Voltron Push the offline Robeast into A huge Crystal . Voltron moved Backward a way from the Robeast with the shield still imbed in it’s as it was reactivating

“ Light it up” Jay Yelled As The Valkyrie , The Castle of lions And Voltron Fire on the Robeast Causing the Crystal it was next to explode.

“ Did we get it this time Lance Asked as the Shield was Returning to them

“In coming “ Shiro said as another Beam Erupted from the Cloud. pidge raised the Shield to block the Blast but as she was doing that Jay welled over the Comms

“ Counter!!!” As the Valkyrie Flow in front of the Shield Wings close and absorbed the blast completely, and fire a stronger beam back into the cloud causing more explosions “ Hey Val How do I summon that Bow We never you “ Jay asked as his Bayard appeared in his hand as the Key slot raised up “Ok Guy When that thing opens its’ mouth again We hit it with Everything We got “ Jay said As He slammed the Bayard into the Slot and A bow appeared replacing the hilt in The Valkyrie’s hand raised and pulled it left hand back summoning up an bride blue Bolt of Energy

“Alright” Shiro said as the Sun Crusher Appeared Again

The Robeast Came out of the smoke Sparking from the massive explosion it was in the middle of turned it head Away from the two enemy in front and started to in hauling a huge cluster of crystals in to it maw for a few second closed it’s mouth looked back to the Valkyrie and Voltron moment it opened it mouth to fire

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DqzmVvga_so

Shiro Yelled “Now” As Hunk Fire the Sun crusher and Jay released the Energy Arrow. The two beam spun around each other and combined into one Huge bolt of Energy that Scream across Space at lighting Speed straight into the robeast Mouth. Robeast closed it mouth instinctually Followed by it’s body expanded then imploding Causing A blind light to erupted from the blast

“ Team Voltron Six the empire Zero “ Lance Yelled in excitement

“That was more stressful then it should have been”Jay said as he leaned Back into his Chair

“Yes it was “ Shiro said doing the same

A few hours later the Castle of lions were leaving the Area to keep Ulaz location Safe from the Empire

“ Thank you the information and for saving Me” Shiro said to Ulaz over a commutation screen

“it was my Mission there is no need for thanks and I hope We meet again Goodbye “ Ulaz replied as the Screen turned off

“ So Where to next princess?”

”I don’t know We can’t go to the Blade or the Rebel base with Out Zarkon following us” Allura Said thinking About their next move

“So were going to fly aimlessly until someone us need are help them while Shiro try’s to find a way to disconnect Zarkon from the black lion ”Jay said sitting in front of Allura as She piloted the ship

Varian’s Creation

A quick drabble about the moment when Varian turned Rudiger into his feral form for the first time. Pretty angsty (and some physical pain on the part of Rudiger), but hopefully an enjoyable read. Man though, these two need a turnaround in their story soon! D’x

“Ok,” Varian sighed, pushing his goggles back atop his head, swiping the back of a gloved hand across his sweaty forehead. “I think this should do it.”

With delicate precision, Varian sucked up some of the glowing liquid from the glass alchemy flask into a syringe, then carefully injected it into the awaiting compound bead he had on hand. Making sure the translucent casing left no leaks, Varian picked up the bead carefully between his thumb and forefinger, studying it carefully under the light of a dwindling kerosene lamp.

“If this works,” Varian said to Rudiger, who sat nearby, his tail curled around him nervously, “this should give us the perfect distraction for our little visit to her majesty.”

Rudiger shivered, tail curling tighter at Varian’s ominous tone, and his eyes pleading as they met his master’s. This wasn’t like him. Varian was impulsive to be sure, often took risks, and could even be a bit cheeky if the mood took him. But this was different. It wasn’t the same. Nothing had been the same since that terrible day. It seemed that nearly every day Varian worked in a frenzy; tinkering, welding, building and compounding this, that, and the other thing, but not with the usual joyful attentiveness Rudiger once knew. There was no joy in this new intensity that Varian had taken on. A sort of twisted glee at times, perhaps, but not joy.

Rudiger wished so badly that he could speak, to be able to share his thoughts and feelings with the boy and steer him away from disaster. What good was he if all he was able to do was be there?

Well now, apparently, according to Varian, that was all about to change. But to what end, the little raccoon wondered?

“Alright Rudiger,” Varian carried on, holding out the compound bead towards him, “Eat up little guy!”

Rudiger looked between the bead, to Varian’s face, and then back to the bead again, giving it a small sniff before backing away a pace and shaking his head.

“C’mon Rudiger, please?” Varian asked, Rudiger’s ears pinning back at Varian’s near whining tone. That wasn’t like him either. “Just one little swallow, that’s all it is! It’ll only take a few seconds. It’ll be fine, trust me!”

A quivering coo escaped Rudiger’s throat as he turned his attention again to what Varian was offering him. Rudiger didn’t know all of the ingredients that had gone into making it, but he certainly noticed the concentrated bimberry juice that had gone into it. If such a small little berry could cause hyperactivity in Rudiger’s rodent cousins, what would a concentrated compound of it do to him? He figured it must enhance his physical prowess somehow, but Rudiger didn’t very much fancy the idea of running hyperactive all over the place.

The little raccoon shook his head a second time.

“Oh, what, now you decide not to help me!?” Varian snapped, getting right into Rudiger’s face, his free palm slamming down on the table as the little creature cowered in response. “I thought you were on my side Rudiger! Everyone else had turned their backs on me, but I never thought you would too! Ooooh no, but no! Seems I can’t trust anyone around here! I’m this close to getting the solution to free my dad, and my own best friend stands in my way!” Varian began pacing, his arms flailing about in wild gesturing as Rudiger watched him wide-eyed, hardly recognizing his old master as he ranted on.

“And what, you don’t trust me!? I’ve calculated the margin of error down to the nearest thousandth, thank you very much. But, no. That’s fine. You just want to stay in your own little happy woodland creature existence while my father remains encased in amber, and the only plan I have that will guarantee my enemies’ cooperation is left hanging because you wouldn’t just do this one small thing for me. Just this one thing! That’s all I ask! You and everyone else just can’t stop to think for one second about how I might be-!”

Rudiger had heard enough.

With ears pinned back flat against his skull, Rudiger dashed forward, scurrying up Varian’s form in a flash, forepaws reaching for his hand that still held the bead with the serum, Varian stopping mid-sentence in surprise as he felt Rudiger climb up him. Once he felt his paws close around the little sphere, Rudiger leapt back down his eyes boring back into Varian’s own.

“You want my help!?” Rudiger’s eyes and brief chitterings attempted to convey as Varian stared back. “Fine! Let’s just see what this stuff does, shall we? Let’s see just what this plan of yours looks like!”

Before he could stop himself again, Rudiger shoved the bead into his mouth, swallowing hard as he felt it go down his esophagus. For several minutes, both boy and raccoon waited with baited breath for something to happen. Rudiger kept his eyes locked on Varian’s face, while Varian’s eyes scanned Rudiger’s form, looking for the slightest sign of change.

“It…it didn’t-” Varian began to say, but he never got to complete that sentence, as at that moment Rudiger doubled over, writhing and twitching on the floor in apparent agony, his terrified screeches ringing in Varian’s ears and sending invisible darts through his heart.

“RUDIGER!” Varian shouted, sounding the closest to his old self that Rudiger had heard in days as he crashed onto his knees beside the little creature, hands hovering over him, unsure of what to do. “I- I’M SORRY! DON’T WORRY, I’LL- I’LL STOP THIS, I’LL FIGURE OUT-!”

It was too late.

To Varian’s horror, Rudiger’s body began to expand like a shaggy balloon, his shoulders and head rapidly increasing in proportion to the rest of his body, and tawny muscles showing beneath the welts that began to form on his forelimbs. Rudiger’s claws began to jut out of his paws like razor sharp knives, and left gashes in the stone floor beneath them as he continued to flail about. Varian tried to quickly rise to his feet and step back, only to find his quivering legs give out from beneath him, falling back flat down on his bum as Rudiger threw his head back, a great howl of dismay escaping him as his jaws lengthened, and his teeth grew out from his mouth like the fangs of a saber-toothed cat.

“What have I done!?” was all that Varian could think as he now beheld the great beast before him. After a few more twitches and convulsions, the creature that had once been Rudiger lay down panting, Varian feeling the vibrations of its breath through the floor beneath them and in the air around them. Varian hardly noticed his own rapid pace of breath as he shifted back another few inches, his heart pounding hard and his eyes bulging.

“What have I done!!?”

After another moment, the beast lay almost perfectly still.

“R-Rudi-” Varian attempted to say, his voice raw and meek as began to lean forward, extending a quivering hand towards the gigantic, hairy form.

Upon hearing his master’s voice, Rudiger’s eyes snapped open, their blank white brilliance pinning Varian under their gaze as they fixed on him. For a whole several seconds, Varian could neither move nor force any noise to come from his throat as he looked back into those eyes, a low rumble of a growl accompanying their stare as the creature began to rise.

“AAAAH!” Varian finally let out a yelp of terror as the monster towered over him, and began approaching him with slow, heavy footfalls. Varian shuffled his way backwards, cringing hard and hissing through his teeth as his head made contact with the stone wall of his lab. When he opened his eyes again, he found he had come face to face with the monster’s glittering white fangs, saliva dripping off of them, and its hot breath tickling his face and tussling his hair.

Varian screwed his eyes tightly shut, hoping, praying that this was all somehow just a bad dream, and he would wake up from it at any moment. Varian panted hard, face turned away as he could feel the behemoth come even closer.

“I hope this doesn’t hurt for long!” Varian plead as he let out a sob, tears gathering at the corners of his eyes, and his beating heart crying out in agony over what he had done, and what was to be done to him.

Though presently, instead of feeling long teeth and claws tearing into him, Varian felt something warm, wet, and a little bit rough swipe gently across his cheek. With a gasp, Varian carefully opened his eyes, his frightened face now meeting the eyes of the great beast.

Its very sad, and sorrowful eyes.

“R-Rudiger?” Varian asked in a shaky voice, the great beast whimpering in reply as it buried its head in Varian’s chest, careful not to crush the boy between himself and the stone wall, Rudiger’s nose feeling every beat of Varian’s rapid heart as he held himself close.

Varian’s first feeling was one of immense relief. It was Rudiger! And he was still here! He still remembered!

But as Varian threw his arms around his most loyal companion, he also felt a harsh jerk of sick shame.

“What have I done!?”

Varian swallowed hard, refusing to let his thoughts wander too far down that road as he clutched desperately at Rudiger’s fur, and Rudiger nudged him gently in return. There was no good letting himself feel regret. He had come too far. There was no going back now.

No going back…

Varian let out a few forced, gleeful huffs as he buried his face in Rudiger’s fur. “Heh heh! N-not gonna lie, you kind of scared me there…” he said, trying to keep the previous, confident, sassy tone that he had adopted over the last several days...but the horror of what he had done was still far to raw in his mind, and before he could stop himself, Varian began to shake with pitiful weeping.

“I’m sorry-…” he managed to choke out before crying took his voice completely, and Rudiger let out a low, cooing drone from his throat, conveying reassurance as he settled down by his master.

“I’m here,” he seemed to say. “And I won’t leave you. I promise.”

For the first time in a long while, Varian gladly embraced that one kept promise still left to him.

Hope ~ Peter Parker (pt. III)

Summary: Y/N gears up and gets ready to go into battle, determined as ever to get her best friend and the love of her life, Peter Parker, back to her after 5 long years without him.

Fandom: MCU

Word Count: 10100 (28 pages wOAh)

If you haven’t read the first two parts, I would suggest looking through them before reading this!

PART 1 ~ PART 2 ~ MASTERLIST

~~~

Y/N walked towards the large platform in the middle of the room with the remaining of the Avengers, all in their rather cool looking matching time heist suits. She had to admit that she felt pretty badass, walking alongside the world's mightiest heroes, going off to save the world like it was any other Tuesday for them.

"One round trip each. No mistakes, no do-overs," Cap spoke as he looked around at everyone in the circle. "Most of us are going to a place we know; that doesn't mean we should know what to expect. Be careful, look out for each other." Y/N looked beside her up at Tony, who smiled reassuringly at her. "This is the fight of our lives, and we're gonna win. Whatever it takes." Steve finished his speech as they separated hands. Y/N looked over at Nat and gave her a smile, to which she returned.

"See you in a minute," she says winking over at her mentee. She rolled her eyes but laughed. Suddenly the machine above them started to whir and spin around, and the mask on Y/N's suit came up to cover her face. She felt her breathing start to go heavy but soon relaxed as Tony gave her hand a squeeze. She felt her body being compressed down into the size of an atom and swept away into the quantum realm, trying to control herself and following the lead of Tony just in front of her.

"You alright there?" Tony asked as he gave the girl a teasing smile. "You look like you're about to explode." Y/N shook her head but smiled back.

"Yeah I just, wow I was such a fan of you guys when I was younger," she said as she watched on as they parted ways and did their own thing to take down as many aliens as possible. She then looked back up at Tony and smirked, one that reminded him of himself. "You guys were so much cooler back then. Now you're all like, big old grampa's."

"Woah!" Tony said, giving her a playful look of pain as he grabbed his heart as if she had stabbed him with her comment. "Ouch, you know I understand why you would say that for Cap, cause he's literally like, 100 years old but for me?"

"Guys we have to focus here," Bruce caught their attention before Y/N could come back with another snarky comeback. "God sometimes I wonder how the two of you arent's related, you're like the same person nowadays." Tony rolled his eyes, looking back out onto the street.

Before they could try and cross the street to get to the Stark Tower, a giant and raging green Hulk came down from the ground, pounding robots into the ground and flinging them around like ragdolls. As the group looked back at Bruce he covered his face, embarrassed of what he used to be. Steve told Bruce and Scott to find Dr. Strange and the time stone while he, Tony, and Y/N went up to the Stark tower to get the mind and space stone. As they got in and saw the past Avengers, Steve departed to get Loki's staff, containing the mind stone, while Tony and Y/N worked on getting the Tesseract.

Y/N hid out in a small conference room out of sight, since Tony didn't want her directly participating in the mission, much to her demise. She opened her laptop, which she disguised as a briefcase. She quickly typed in the password before pulling up multiple programs on the small screen, including a camera view from Tony's glasses and a controller for a small robotic device she'd use to slip around without being realized.

"You sure this is gonna work, kid?" Tony asked quietly through the comm, causing Y/N to roll her eyes.

"Yes, Tony. I've been working on this model forever, I know what I'm doing," she sassed back, looking through a small camera on the spider-shaped device she originally created with Peter. "Just remember I'm the reason we're all here. I'm not just a pretty face, Stark."

"Yeah yeah," he mumbled as he watched his past self pack up the Tesseract in a briefcase. "Ok, spider-girl, release your little spiderling." He says dramatically as the spider crawls from his pocket and makes its way onto the roof. Y/N chuckled at the nickname before focusing on controlling the spider-robot, the decoy lowering itself onto past Tony's shoulder without anyone noticing. She couldn't help but let out a little squeal at her excellent work. She watched through the small cam as the Avengers (excluding Hulk, who was told to take the stairs) made their way into the foyer of the building.

Tony watched along as his past self walks along with the other original Avengers and Loki. Alexander Pierce and his crew walked towards them as present-day Tony gave Y/N the signal to drop down. Y/N dropped the spider drone into Tony's beard and then down onto his chest, the almost microscopic robot slipping through and into his arc reactor. She explores for a while until she finds what Tony had told her would cause the distraction.

"Is this really a good idea, Stark?" Y/N asked worriedly, not thinking of the consequences until then.

"Yeah, sure. It'll only cause me to go into a tiny cardiac distract," Tony stated casually, and Y/N's eyes widened immediately, stopping the robot.

"What?!" She says, shaking her head. "Okay, no. No no no no no. I'm not gonna do this, we can figure out something else it'll be fine."

"Y/N, hey, calm down," Tony says, his voice going lower. "Don't worry, I'll be fine. I mean I'm still here, so that's gotta mean something right? If I died I wouldn't be here." Y/N scoffed at his words, but still, her hands were shaking, not wanting to hurt someone she had gotten so close to. She couldn't bear if anything happened to him.

"No shit, Sherlock," she whispers back into the comm, but loud enough for him to hear it. He rolled his eyes and continued to watch as Pierce tried to snatch the case away from his hands. "Time's running out, Y/N. Pull my pin!"

"Okay, okay, give me a second." She said as she maneuvered the tiny device to the said area with a small pin that helped keep everything in the arc reactor together. "But if you die, Tony, it'll be your funeral. Literally." She comments back to try and defuse the tension she felt. He quietly gave her another reassurance before giving the signal. With the small metal pinchers, Y/N pulled the cord in the arc reactor and through the other camera through Tony's glasses she saw past Tony fall to the floor just as Pierce was taking the case containing the Tesseract from his hands.

The small metallic robot climbed out from Tony's reactor and pushed the case over to Tony, who was disguised as a staff of security. He discreetly picked it up and began walking away from the scene as medics began rushing to help the famous billionaire on the floor. What they didn't know was that they weren't as discreet as they thought.

"Good job, kid. Meet me in the alley, I'm gonna-" but was cut off as a big green angry hulk burst through the door, knocking down Tony and flinging the tesseract out of its case and down the hallway. The bright blue square landed right at the feet of Loki, who looked down and quickly picked it up, using its powers to teleport him out of the tower as people were too distracted running in terror.

Thor tapped his hammer against Tony's chest, causing him to stop shaking and blink frantically, looking at his surroundings. "Where's the case?" Y/N heard him ask. Her face dropped as she moved to drone to look all around the room, finding no clue where the Tesseract or Loki himself was.

"Fuck this," she mumbled, working her computers to try and get into the security tapes, looking for what might've happened to either of them. "That wasn't supposed to happen, was it?"

“What the hell happened, Stark?” She said as she got into the back seat. “We had the Tesseract, where did it go?” Tony sighed, closing his eyes as he responded, trying to keep calm.

“I don’t know what happened, Y/N,” he said tensely. “I know we had it but now we don’t, okay? Something happened, I don’t know what.”

“What happened?” he asked, looking at Y/N. She laughed ironically, starting to pace along the alleyway.

“Are there any other options with the Tesseract,” Steve asked, causing Y/N to roll her eyes at his always enthusiastic goody-two-shoes energy.

“No. No there’s not,” she said annoyed as she stood up and walking over to him. “You said it yourself, there are no do-overs. If we use that last Pym particle, we’re never getting home.”

“Why were they both there?” Steve asked, causing Y/N to look between the two as they continued their conversation. Tony shrugged.

“How vague,” he asked.

“Woah, okay, what’s going on?” Y/ finally butted in. “What are you guys talking about? Where are we going?” She asked eagerly as they started entering in the time date and coordinates.

“Correction, we’re going. You’re travelling back to the present to give this to the others,” Tony said as he handed her Loki’s staff. Her eyes bulged out as she stood up straighter.

“Tony, I can help. I’m not letting you guys go alone, I’m coming with you,” she stated strongly as she put her suit up. Tony shook his head.

"I trust you with this, kid, okay? get back to home base, we'll be there by the time you get back." He said as he and Steve put up their own suits. He took her hand and entered in the present-day coordinates to get back home as she looked at him like he was crazy, which she currently felt he was.

"What?! But Tony-!" She started, but before Y/N could argue, she felt the ground sweep from under her feet and she was being sent back to the present day, Loki's staff still held tightly in her hand.

As she regained her balance, she looked around the room, seeing that everyone had their respective stone's, including Tony with the Tesseract. But something seemed off. She did another swift headcount of everyone and realized someone had to be missing.

"Where's Nat?" She asked, looking around at everyone's confused faces before looking at Clint, whose eyes were red and glassy. She watched as he looked up at her, shaking his head slightly as a fresh tear rolled down his face. Y/N felt her chest tighten as her mouth opened slightly, letting out a shuttering breath. She knew that face, she wore the same expression five years ago.

~~~

“What do you think is coursing through my veins right now?” She heard as she exited the ladies bathroom just beside the room. She leaned against the doorframe as she answered.

“Cheez Whiz?” she asked sarcastically as she came up to stand in between the god and Tony. Thor looked down, confusion on his face as he pointed at her and she, in return, gave him a sly smile.

“Lightning,” he emphasized. Y/N sucked in a breath and averted her gaze as he looked expectantly at Tony, who let out a sigh as he pinched his eyebrows together in concentration.

“We don’t. But the radiation is mostly gamma. It’s… it’s like I was made for this.” The team looked around before Tony stepped out and started explaining the rules of the stones.

“Take it off! Take it off!” Thor said as he stepped towards Banner, who was still struggling to stay upright. Steve held out his hand to Thor as a sign to stop.

"D-did it work?" Y/N mumbled as the mask of her suit disappeared from around her face. Everyone turned to look at where she was, seeing multiple new birds coming into sight, planting themselves on a nearby sapling. A phone started to ring, and Clint walked over to his cell vibrating on the glass table, a picture of his beloved wife displayed on the screen. He picked it up and started talking to her.

"We did it, kid," he mumbled into her messy hair, feeling her locks dampen with his tears. "We finally did it. They're back." Y/N laughed again into his suit as she pulled him closer and hugged him tighter, closing her eyes as she felt true relief finally wash over her entire being. But of course, that wouldn't last for long.

"Tony?!" She screamed, looking for the older man that she was just in contact with. "Tony?! Cap?! Thor?!" She screamed any name that came to mind, hoping for someone to hear her, and possibly give her an explanation. She was limping, pain shooting through her ankle whenever she out the slightest pressure on it. It was definitely broken. She felt the metallic taste of blood entering her mouth, and she was scared to say she didn't know where it came from, her now bleeding nose or the small cuts that littered her cheeks and lips.

"Y/N?" She heard a voice say and sighed with relief. From the dust came Clint, holding something in his arms, the Infinity Gauntlet. "Hey, I got you, you're okay," He reassures her as he puts an arm across her back and under her arms, supporting her weight so she can walk. "Tony, I'm with the kid, she seems okay."

"Is he okay?" she asked quietly when Clint found a safe spot. He looked at her and nodded.

"yeah he's fine, but almost had a heart attack when he couldn't find you," he says, offering her a smile before his face went stoic again. "But he's here. Thanos. He found us." Y/N's eyes went wide, her eyebrows furrowing into a line of confusion. She blinked a couple of times as she processed the new information.

"What? But-- but Thanos i-is dead? He's dead! You said he was dead!" She screams as she feels her heart rate quicken, her breath refusing to meet her lips as if it was stuck inside her throat. Clint reached down and held her hand, rubbing his thumb against the back of her hands as a calming method he has seen Tony use on her before.

"I know, I thought he was gone too," he whispered, looking back at the dark tunnel before turning back to her. "But this is a different Thanos, he followed us from the past." Y/N felt her throat close up, dark thoughts filling her mind. Fuck. This was all her fault.

There was a sound that came from down the tunnel, almost like a snarl. The pair went quiet, looking towards the source. Clint slowly took out an arrow from the collection he kept on his back, placing it in his bow and shooting it straight down the line, the end glowing up-- revealing about ten or twelve alien-looking dogs. Y/N let out a breath as the two scurried to get up. Clint held up her weight as they ran, eventually settling to pick her up as he ran from the dogs.

"Tony," she tried to say but found that her voice was scratchy and weak. "Tony, I'm right here." The said man turned around the stress on his face leaving as he saw the girl he was looking for. He quickly wrapped an arm around as Clint had earlier and walked her away from the scene.

"God, hey kid. You hanging in there?" He said, checking the area before leading her to a small space of coverage under a piece of rubble that looked like it used to be the floor. She nodded in reassurance before grabbing his arm and pulling him back up.

"Y/N, what the hell was that," Tony said, concern laced his voice as he watched the girl groan, squeezing her eyes shut and throwing her head back. She gulped before answering in short breaths.

"That answer may vary between poison and what I like to call a spider-serum," she replied, sarcasm still in use through her pain. Tony looked at her with bewilderment in his eyes, as this was not a project approved by him or not even one they've talked about. She gritted her teeth together, continuing to moan out in pain as she collapsed to the floor, Tony calling out her name.

As Y/N got her self together, she placed both hands on the desk in front of her nailed into the floor, using it to pull herself back on her feet. She felt everything in her body changing, she could hear the blood rushing through her veins, she could smell the smoke from across the battlefield outside the reinforced metal door, she could feel the small hairs on Tony's arms tickling her own as he tried to shake her out of her trance.

"Y/N! Kid come on, snap out of it. What the hell was that?" He said as he continued to shake her. She was going to bring a hand up to slap his own away but instead found them stuck to the table. As she tried tugging again, the steal table breaking off the floor while still sticking to her hands. Y/N and Tony looked in shock.

Y/N then began to laugh, her eyes wide in disbelief. She widened her hands and the desk fell from her palms, crashing against the floor. "Holy shit," she whispered as she looked at Tony, who was looking from the now broken table to her. "It worked! Oh god, I can't believe it actually worked!" She screamed as she jumped up and down and headed towards the door.

"No no no, what the hell was that?!" Tony asked. Y/N rolled her eyes, still smiling as she impatiently grabbing his arm and dragged him outside towards the fight. She smiled at him, a great look of success overgoing her as she showed him the potion she had been perfecting for the last couple of years.

Tony looked at her mesmerized, then looked at the stash of dark red vials in the drawer. He lifted his eyebrows and nodded, impressed beyond words of the young girl's discovery. Then he paused and looked back at her. “Wait, so you technically drank spiderboy’s blood?” He asked suspiciously. Y/N opened her mouth to respond but didn’t quite know how.

She felt the wind blow rapidly against her hair as she ran through the bad guys, dodging hits with swiftness. Of course, she wasn't fast like Pietro but definitely was faster than she usually was, which proved to be a great advantage while on the battlefield. Y/N saw Tony, Thor and Steve fighting against Thanos in the background as she thwiped out a web and flew into the air, grabbing one of the Chiari and slamming it into another group coming towards her.

"On your left..."

She seemed to distantly recognize the voice but couldn't quite place it. That is until a portal appeared beside Steve, made of orange sparks that she had remembered. There, the king of Wakanda, T'Challa, his younger sister, Shuri she thought her name was, and another girl who was dressed in a warriors uniform and a shaved head, holding a golden spear stood beside the king.

"Avengers..." he starts as he holds out his hand and Mjolner flies into his grip. "Assemble!"

But as good as she was doing at the moment, it wasn't hard for her to get overpowered when a bunch jumped on her back at once, knocking her down to the floor, struggling to keep them from ripping out her skin. She tried to push them off, and successfully webbed some to the ground to keep them off of her, but it wasn't enough to handle them all.

"Hey, watch out!" A boyish voice sounded through her comms as all the aliens were kicked right off of her, giving her a chance to stand up and fight off the rest, her rescuer standing behind her, back to back, as they both slung down the dogs and threw them across the battlefield. Y/N stabbed some with her pincer things Tony put on her back.

Once they were gone, Y/N grabbed the boy behind her and pulled him into a quieter place as she unmasked herself, looking expectantly at the boy. "Peter?" She said, her voice breaking as she looked at the Iron Spider suit, which disappeared from his face, revealing his unruly curls and a just as shocked look on his face.

"Y/N?" He whispered, disbelief in his eyes as she saw a single tear escape his brown orbs and gently slide down his cheek. He looked the same, but at the same time looked more mature, and she was relieved that he had seemed to grow while he was gone, or else the near future situation would be a bit awkward. "W-what are you doing here?" Y/N giggled a bit, feeling her own hot tears sliding down her dirt and blood covered cheek as her delicate hand went up to grab his own, wiping his tears.

"I came to save you, dummy," she joked. Peter smiled at her, placing his hands on her waist. Although it wasn't as long for Peter in the soul stone as it was for Y/N while on Earth since he was in a coma-like state pretty much the whole time, he had missed her honey-coated voice and sickly sweet smile. He had waited too long for this.

'God, I love you so much," he mumbles as he brings her mouth up to his again, this kiss a bit more passionate than the last. Y/N laughed into the kiss as she brought her arms around his neck and played with his hair. She pulled him back a bit, their noses still brushing against one another as she pecked him on the lips.

"I love you too," she whispered, looking into his eyes with such adoration he almost exploded right there with the adrenaline he was feeling just having her this close to him. He smiled wider as he pecked her on the lips; once, twice, and a third time brought her into a proper kiss.

"Y'know as heartwarming as this moment is, you lovebirds realize we're still fighting a war," someone said from behind them. They quickly pulled away, stepping back from one another to face Tony Stark, a smirk on his lips as he examined the blush on the young adult's faces, bashfully looking away from one another.

"Oh shut it, Tony. I deserve this at least," she shook her head as she looked at the perfect boy beside her, someone she had known pretty much her whole life and had been in love with for just as long. Peter smiled at Tony and walked over to greet him, excited to see his mentor again after so long.

"Mr. Stark! Holy cow you will not believe what has happened to me," Peter began to ramble as he walked up to him and started to do his usual over-exaggerated hand gestures. "Do you remember when we were in space? Right? And I got all dusty? Well I must have passed out and Dr. Strange said we went to the Soul Stone and we were in like a coma for like five years, and when I woke up, Dr. Strange was there too and he was like 'it's been five years we have to go', and then he started doing that yellow sparkly thingy, uh, that he does and... what are you doing? ...oh." Peter stopped when Tony wrapped his arms around him and pulled him into a tight embrace.

"This is nice," Peter said before they pulled away, Peter turned back at Y/N and smiled at her, his grin reaching his sparkling eyes. Tony patted his shoulder.

"I think it's time we get back into battle," he stated, his mask going back over his face as he got his repulsors ready. "You two don't take too long, and NO funny business." The pair nodded as he flew back into the air, going to help Banner or the Hulk. Peter turned back to Y/N.

"Wow, this is so awesome," he said as he walked back to her, holding her arms as he admired her suit, which looked similar to his. "You're like, my spider-girl sidekick." Y/N laughed and pushed his chest playfully.

"I'm nobody's sidekick, Parker," she said. "But I can be your... partner?" Peter smiled and blushed. He bit his lip as he looked her over again, his grin contagious.

"In what way?" He asked, trying to sound sly but sounding more scared of the answer. Y/N laughed and walked over to him, wrapping her arms around his waist.

"In whatever way you want me to be," she said, kissing his cheek before putting her mask back on and saluting him before swinging of back into battle. Peter stood there with a red blush crawling up his neck and feeling breathless, his smile growing wider if that was even possible.

"Awesome," he muttered before his mask also went over his face and he went to go help as well.

“Aw, thanks, Y/N,” Peter said as he put his head into her neck, which she couldn’t help but blush at. She thought it was cute how their roles were sort of reversed and he was just so baby.

“Hi I-I’m Peter.. Parker,” he said shyly. Captain Marvel smiled at him, looking between the two teenagers.

“Don’t worry,” Y/N said with a smile as her mask got on and Okoye, T’Challa’s head of king’s guard, finished her sentence for her.

“Take… take care of… of her,” he whispered, causing a sob to come over Peter as well as he nodded vigorously, holding her tighter against him if that was even possible at this point.

“Friday?” Pepper asked, her hand on Tony’s chest as Tony’s hand was placed gently on top of hers.

~~~

‘Proof Tony Stark has a heart’

“Love you 3000,” she mumbled in her half-asleep state, and Y/N smiled, feeling tears brimming in her eyes as she replied.

“Right now? Are you serious?” she said, shaking her head as she jokingly pushed his chest. He also chuckled a bit.
