I figured this would be a good side story for Avenging Spirits and when it's over Reaper will be back at the same time he left so enjoy!

Chapter 1: Down the Rabbit Hole

Location: Nowhere
Time: Nowhen

A portal opened up and a teenager in a black robe with brown hair and red eyes fell out, "OW! The hell am I?" He looked around, "I swear if this is another one of Stark's jokes I will overshadow him and make him do something so humiliating that he will never go into public again."

Then another portal opened up and a purple woman wearing green with red hair appeared, "AAAAAAAH!"

She landed face down in the sand before she spat it out and she looked around before seeing the first guy, "Welcome to paradise." He joked, "You know why we're here by any chance?"

She shrugged before looking around, "Where the hell is everybody?"

"Oh don't complain so much, at least you two have clothes on." They both spun around to see what looked like a female version of Nightcrawler who was wearing a white shirt and boxers.

The first guy had a scythe that appeared out of nowhere while the purple girl had a purple energy stake.

"Jumpy aren't we?" The female Nightcrawler joked, "Relax I rarely fight people in my underwear… How I got in my Underwear is a whole different story."

"You look like Nightcrawler." The purple girl said.

The guy shook his head, "Nah really?"

The female Nightcrawler smirked, "You do too but my excuse is probably better, Kurt Wagner is my father, I'm Talia Josephine Wagner." They shook hands, "TJ, you guys know my father?"

The guy didn't shake Talia's hand, "I've heard of him but I never really met the guy."

The last girl spoke up, "I didn't know he had a daughter, though you tend to get used to surprises with life being what it is. You're really his daughter?"

"Yes." Talia smirked, "So who are the two of you?"

"I'm Blink." Blink smiled before they turn to the last guy, "What about you?"

He decided to sharpen his scythe, "…Reaper." As he sharpened it he sighed, "I never heard of the two of you to be honest but right now I'm hoping this is a dream because I just got done dealing with Mysterio during a Macbeth Play and I really want to have a vacation."

"I've heard of Mysterio but not of you." Talia admitted, "Are you on a team?"

"I'm a founding member of the Avengers." Reaper raised an eyebrow at the weird looks, "What?"

Before they could answer another portal opened up and a very pale guy in a blue suit wearing yellow gloves and boots spat out sand while resting on a purple cape, "A Beach? Great. And me without my sunblock."

Blink ran forward happy, "MORPH! OH GOD MORPH! You're alive!"

Morph shook his head, "Yeah alive and getting my alabaster skin roasted."

Blink hugged him, "You're alive! You're really alive! I didn't know if we were going to survive at all!" Morph blinked in confusion, "But we're here! You're not hurt are you? You look okay. Do you have any idea what that portal was? It wasn't one of mine. HA!"

Reaper edged away slowly from Blink.

"Well someone's a wee bit overstimulated. No more cappuchinos for you!" Joked Morph.

"Where are the others? They're okay right? Are they coming? Should we go get them?" She asked all those questions at fifty miles an hour.

"Get who?" Morph asked still confused at the situation.

"Hahahaha! Stop fooling! Everyone's okay right?" Asked Blink

Morph looked at her, "Look sweetie, I'm never one to stop a woman from empathetically pressing herself against me, and by all means continue, but who are you?"

Blink backed up in shock, "Y-you don't know me?"

"Of course he doesn't, he just said so." Reaper said, "Now will someone please tell me what the hell is going on?"

He was ignored as Morph continued, "Can't say I do but that can change baby, come on lets hit the concession stand, my treat!" Then he realized something and his body changed to him wearing a tuxedo with his same face, "Oop. She stopped with the hugging I shouldn't have said anything." Then he looked at Talia, "How about you gorgeous? Want some sugar?"

Talia chuckled, "I'm good thanks."

"And don't even think about asking me." Snarled Reaper.

"You're not a people person are you?" Asked Talia

"No I'm just pissed about waking up in a freaking desert with people I don't even know!" Reaper pulled out an ID card and pressed a button, "This is Reaper come in… Iron Man… Giant Man? Wasp? Captain America?" He repeatedly pressed the button, "Thor? Panther?! ANYONE!"

He finally gave up and put the card away, "The Avenger's ID card isn't working obviously."

Blink sighed, "Tell me. What were each of you doing before you got here?"

Morph changed again into a boxing outfit, "Me and my fellow X-Men were battling the cursed Stonehenge!"

"Who's Stonehenge?" Asked Talia in confusion.

"I honestly don't know, I was in the middle of kicking his can when I got sucked in a glowing swirly hole and fell right down here in Miami and then you started to grope me."

"I was fighting Mysterio during a school play while the other Avengers were at another place then when I got back to Avenger's Mansion I sat in the Lounge and fell asleep before I woke up here." Reaper told them.

Talia nodded, "Same for me I went to sleep and ended up here."

"I was in bed as well before being transported here." They turned to see a very huge guy in red and black body armor, "Wherever here is."

"He's a big one." Quipped Morph

"Ya think?" Reaper asked sarcastically

"James is that you?" Asked Talia

"No, John." He said, "John Proudstar."

"Oh wow John, you remind me of your brother James." Commented Talia.

John closed his eyes, "James is dead."

Now Talia backed up quickly, "James?! No he's not I fought with him last night… You're the one that died!"

Morph looked at Blink, "You following any of this?"

"Not particulary." She said

Reaper sighed, "I am really ready to wake up now."

Yet again another portal opened up and a guy in a yellow and black X-Man suit came out with wings on his back and he had goggles over his head with blonde hair, "Hey Gang! Are you all as lost as I am?"

Talia blinked in confusion, "Now this one I know, he's Mimic of the X-Men."

Then a guy with brown hair that had a white strand walked up in red armor, "Hello, I'm in the dark as well but I'm reasonably sure that we're supposed to head that way." They looked to where he was pointing to see a makeshift kitchen that wasn't there before with a bald short man serving drinks.

They all approached him in fighting positions with their weapons out, "Okay sir we've all enjoyed this game but the fun's over, we want answers!" Mimic said for everyone.

"I just want to punch him." Muttered Reaper.

The man chuckled, "You can say that again. Grab a chair, who wants coffee?" He looked at them, "I think we've got some Danish here too-." John grabbed him, "Okay you don't like pastries calm down Slick!"

"Who are you?" Asked John darkly, "Why have you brought us here?"

Mimic crossed his arms, "And what's with all the mind tricks? Something from Mysterio?"

"Oh God I hope not, I just dealt with him." Muttered Reaper.

"What about Mastermind?" Asked Mimic after that, "Tell us now and we'll go easy on you."

The man shook his head, "If you would all just relax a moment and concentrate then you would know what you already feel!" He said crossly, "You're all fighters of the good fight and had to have relied on your intuition, your guts. What are your guts telling you now?"

They all looked each other and for some reason Morph had Magneto's helmet on.

"You're guts are telling you that this is not a dream. That I'm not a threat!" He told them, "No one is messing with your noggins and this isn't some evil threat! This is real and you're all in trouble."

With that said he looked at John, "Now can you put me down? I have Muffins burning."

"… Sure." John finally said after giving him a long piercing look.

"This is bizarre." Mimic said as they all sat down, "Are any of you buying this?"

"He's telling the truth." Muttered Blink, "I can sense it can't you? We're in deep and he has nothing to do with it."

Morph had giant glasses on, "So are you a fan of these Butt Monkeys?" He asked Talia, "Or do you just dig the fit of Jersey?"

Talia rolled her eyes, "You're just looking for an excuse to look at my chest."

Morph shrugged, "True enough."

The guy walked up, "Now who want's coffee?"

"I would kill for a cup." Talia said.

"I'm tired from my last fight so yeah I'll have a cup." Reaper said

"What's coffee?" As Blink said that they all looked at her in shock, "What?"

"You don't know what coffee is?" Asked Talia

"I spent my entire life in a war zone I haven't had any Toilet Paper since I was in Prison." Blink explained

"Oh you're going to be a lot of laughs."

Mimic interrupted them, "Gang, please can we get on with this?"

Reaper agreed with him, "Yeah the sooner we do that the sooner we get home."

The guy walked towards them, "Right-o! The short version. You're all from different dimensions. Alternate Realities if you will. That will explain some of the confusion."

Reaper banged his head on the table, "It's official! I hate dimensional travel!"

Then a Giant TV popped up out of nowhere, "Let me show you're origins starting with young Daniel here."

"Everyone looked confused, "Daniel?" Asked John.

"He means me." Muttered Reaper.

A camera flashed, "Okay I showed you guys the Ghost Portal can't we go?" Asked a fourteen year old Danny Fenton.

"Come on Danny think about it a Ghost Portal aren't you excited?" Asked a gothic girl (Reaper fidgeted a bit at seeing her)

Danny shrugged, "I guess but I don't want to get in trouble."

A black teenager in a red beret smiled, "It looks exciting, come on Danny."

Danny rolled his eyes, "Fine." With that he pulled on a white Hazmat Suit with black gloves and black boots taking off a silly picture before going in the machine where the girl took another picture, "It is kind of awesome." Then he tripped and his hand pressed the On switch where he was electrocuted and after a few seconds of screaming in agony a boy with snowy white hair wearing a Hazmat suit with the colors reversed was in his place as he passed out.

"And thus you were born." Announced the guy

Mimic shook his head, "Hold up that doesn't look anything like Reaper."

"Oh he went by Danny Phantom for a bit before changing his look, he'll tell the rest to you later, now it's the others turn."

The TV went on starting with TJ or rather as she's known as Nocturne training with an aged Nightcrawler who had an eye patch. Then it went to John Proudstar showing him as Thunderbird and telling how he got his heightened strength.

Then it switched to the last newcomers whose name they still haven't learned naming him Magnus the son of Magneto and Rogue.

Okay that is weird. Thought Reaper thinking of the ages of those two in his world.

Then it showed Morph and it showed that he was a member of the X-Men and the Avengers in his world.

Mimic was next showing how he started as a member of the Brotherhood of Evil before joining the X-Men and becoming the leader of the team.

Finally it showed Blink's world in pure chaos that scared some of the others.

"So there you are kiddos, that's who you are." The man said with a smile, "An amazing, talented and an eclectic group of heroes as you're ever going to get, that's the good news… The bad news is that you've become undone in time."

Talia blinked in confusion, "But what does-?"

"I'm going to tell you TJ." The man said, "I am a Timebroker. That is my function; time itself is a living being." Timebroker walked past them, "It has shape. It has motion. It has growth. Think of the fluid motion of time as a long massive DNA Chain. All along this Chain are strands that are made up of various realities. And there are a bunch of them. Trillions upon trillions of them."

Reaper sighed, "And I thought talking to Clockwork was confusion."

Mimic shook his head, "Trillions? You're kidding right?"

Timebroker sighed, "Has any of this been funny kid?" Not waiting for an answer he continued, "Yeah, trillions of trillions. In some worlds your individual life essence is the Opposite Sex, in some you're apes, in some just protozoa, in others mere energy signatures."

Morph shape shifted into a girl, "You know the chick me is hot."

John gave him a look, "Shut up."

Then Timebroker explained more and it pretty much went over their heads before he said, "New events have transpired and you lead different lives than you were supposed to."

"Excuse me?" Asked Reaper

"For example Reaper, you became a founding member of the Avengers but now you killed the Avengers in Wakanda while you were enraged killing Plasmius as well." Reaper looked as if he was punched in the gut repeatedly.

Then Timebroker looked at Magnus, "Magnus, your mother was accidently killed after your thirteenth birthday after you turned her to steel. Your father has never recovered from that loss and will resume his war against humanity." Magnus looked devastated at that.

"When on your first Mission with the Brotherhood of Evil Mutants Mimic, you all attempted to kidnap Senator Robert Kelly. It was unsuccessful and he was murdered along with a bus full of innocent bystanders. Forty seven was the total killed and you know sit on Death Row." Mimic swallowed hard after hearing that.

Morph was next, "Morph, while still with the New Mutants you were injured battling the Morlocks. You're physical composition was disrupted. Ever since you have remained in comatose in liquid form inside a beaker in Hank McCoy's Lab." Morph blinked in confusion.

"Nocturne, your father was killed in the hand of the Hellfire Club it was at the hands of Mystique." A tear fell from Talia's eye.

"You never wrestled yourself from Apocalypse grasp Thunderbird, you remained his loyal servant." John snarled at that.

Finally it was Blink, "Blink you were never born."

Everyone looked horrified and devastated before Reaper stepped up, "What about Julie, Peter and Danielle?"

Timebroker sighed, "Peter or as you know him as Spider-Man tried to stop you and make you see reason but you killed him after a big fight due to his Spider-Sense which made him last against you. You're clone Danielle was killed easily by your Ghostly Wail. As for Julie you took her head off with your scythe."

Now Reaper looked even more horrified than before.

"I know Gang. That it's a lot to take in." Timebroker drank some coffee, "The lives you have lived have been rewritten. But now you have the opportunity to change them back. You will have to repair the breaks in these chains that caused the ripple through time." Timebroker looked at them, "The breaks are incidents in different realities and while they appear not to affect you they will. You will be realigning dominoes so they won't fall on top of you and you get your lives back."

"What's the catch?" Asked Mimic.

"If you succeed you'll return to exactly where you have left completely unchanged and unaged. But the dangers are real. You can be injured and you can die." Timebroker looked very serious, "And you can fail which would return you to your realities that will remain unchanged to these unfortunate new existences." Then he looked at Blink, "Except for you… You'll just cease to exist."

"Thank you." Blink muttered sarcastically.

Then Timebroker held up a gold armband with a red computer screen on it, "You'll need this, the Tallus, it will be your guide, instructing you as best as it can on what is needed to repair the breaks. Once completed you can move on to your next reality and your next mission."

"As best as it can?" Asked Mimic

"I don't like the sound of that." Muttered Reaper

"It's all Probability Chico. It's all a crap shot." Timebroker shrugged.

Mimic rolled his eyes, "Delightful."

Timebroker put the Tallus on Blink's arm, "In conjunction with Blink's teleportation powers, the Tallus will allow you to jump to each reality."

Blink brought up a question, "What about you? Are you coming with us?"

Timebroker smirked, "Me? No. I don't even exist in a conventional sense, seeing me is how you deal with your trauma." Then he waved, "Bye!"

With that they all fell through another portal.
