She woke up to the sound of fire cracking. Her head didn't hurt anymore, and she didn't feel at all sore or tired. Slowly, she sat up and realized she was in a wooden, little shelter. It had to be morning. There were no birds or cars. No noises. Genesis sat in shock when she realized she was in a worn out gown. It looked like a white bed sheet that someone tore up and sewed into a laughable excuse of a gown.

She was barefoot and alone. There was a table with a few pots and a kettle. The fire was small, and no one else was around. Suddenly, all her memories started flooding in again.

Stephen. The Stones. Tony Stark.

Her thought were interrupted by her worst nightmare. His large footsteps made her shiver, and his grunting boomed in her ears. Thanos came in, wearing a white T shirt. He didn't seem shocked to find her awake. He came in with an empty basket, and placed it on the table. Quickly, she got up to summon her power, and blasted him in the head. He fell to the side with a grunt and chuckled. This angered her more as she readied another blast.

Bubbles filled the air. She grimaced and noticed Thanos was gone. She stood, frozen and confused. Something cold and metal pressed against her head and she gasped.

"You should be more grateful. I could kill you in any way imaginable, yet you continue to despise me."

"I hate you because you're a monster," she spat.

"Would a monster single out a weak, little being like you? I chose to be even more merciful towards you than the rest of the universe. More than my own daughter," he said, lowering his voice at the last sentence.

Genesis shook her head. "I never asked for this."

"No, you weren't. You were chosen," he corrected her.

"You're insane."

Thanos smiled. "Strange couldn't see you for what you are. He let love blind him to endless power and opportunities. I have plans for you, and I plan on getting to know you in the process."

Genesis took deep breaths before speaking. "And if I don't?"

"That's up to you. We're millions of miles from any civilized planet, and any source of food. I think the wise choice would be for you to stay."

His large hand turned her around so she would face him. He gently gripped her chin and held it up. "And in time, you will provide this perfect universe with an heir to overlook it after my time."

She felt her eyes burn with tears. "Never."

He didn't seem at all bothered. "In the meantime, make yourself at home. I'll be making breakfast."

She watched him approach the counter as she ran outside the shelter. This definitely wasn't Earth. There was a large garden before her. The sky was a bright yellow color and made the land look warm. Thanos' armor hung up on a wooden pole, almost like a scarecrow. Genesis hugged herself as she sat on the steps in front of the entrance.

After several minutes, Thanos joined her at the steps. "It's beautiful, isn't it?"

She said nothing. He looked at the horizon and sighed in contentment. Genesis felt disgusted in the clothes she wore, and gazed at the titan. "I want my old clothes."

"I burned them. They're gone."

She narrowed her eyes. "You changed my clothes while I was asleep."

Thanos looked offended by that. "I did nothing to you."

Scoffing, she asked, "I'm supposed to believe that?"

"I'm not the monster you think I am. I gain no pleasure in doing such things without a woman's consent."

Genesis only got more and more angry. "No, but you take pleasure in holding them hostage and forcing them into a pregnancy."

He angrily stood up and towered over her. She took a step back but her face didn't change.

"I'm not going to force you. Overtime, you'll come to your senses," he said, touching her hair with his ungloved hand.

She slapped his hand. "How did I fall asleep? And for how long?'

Thanos sat back down and replied, "I put you to sleep because you refused to cooperate. And I needed to make sure you didn't leave when I went to Earth to get the final stone."

Genesis couldn't believe it. She looked at the gauntlet and noticed he had all the stones on it. Her hand went to her mouth and she gasped. "No."

"I completed my mission. Half of the universe is gone," he said, unphased.

She slumped to her knees in shock. How could this have happened? Was Stephen still alive? Wong? Thanos stared at her, irritated by her reaction.

"If I remember correctly, you're only here because the wizard handed you over to me."

That made her freeze. She remembered how it happened. She fought the idea of it being true. Her hands glowed purple as she held back a sob. "You-"

A blast to her stomach knocked her several feet away and onto her back. Her gown was now black and smoking. Slowly, she sat up as he walked towards her with the power stone glowing on the glove. She tried to scoot away but he grabbed her and held her up. She screamed as he picked her up. Then, he hugged her. She trembled in confusion as he spoke quietly.

"Forgive me. I don't want this life...for either of us."
