Lost Hope
Note: I apologize for taking so long. I was delayed in seeing the movie. I loved it and it was one very long movie. I was brainstorming some ideas. Now I will do my best for my fanfic, so expects some delays or some modifications to any chapters. Like the other stories they will center around Peter's life in the story. I thank you for your patience and hope you enjoy the fanfic.
On the day of the decimation, in Queens. May is at home cooking and see a news footage of recent invasion of New York and Iron Man's disappearances. She worries for Peter and what may have become of him. Mary Jane came home with some groceries.
"May, I'm back." Mary Jane said.
"I'm in here, sweetie." May said.
Mary Jane puts the groceries on the table and sees the news.
"I'm sure Peter is okay." Mary Jane said.
"I know, but I'm worried that he might involved in what's going on and that he could be in danger." May said.
"Peter can take care of himself, we just have to believe in him." Mary Jane said.
"You're right, I hope that one day, he comes home with the woman he loves." May said.
"He will." Mary Jane said.
They hear a crash outside.
"What was that?" May wondered.
"Stay here, I'll go check it out." Mary Jane said.
Mary Jane went outside the house and see a car crashed another car. She got closer and sees that there is no one there. She then sees some people disappearing into dust. She then returned home.
"May, May." Mary Jane said.
She returned inside to find Aunt May no where to be found.
She soon finds out that she begins to turn to dust as well. Both she and May are now gone.
23 days later, the remaining Avengers are at the compound including Rocket and Felicia. Steve got a shave, Peter still has his scruffs and his arm is completely healed, he is laying down in Wanda's quarters, looking at the picture of him and Wanda on their wedding day. Losing Wanda was bad enough, but he heard that both Mary Jane and Aunt May were among of the victims that day. He lost three people he loved in one day.
He then looks out the window to see a glow. He and the other Avengers went outside to see Carol Danvers bringing in a ship. She lands it down, it opens and they see Tony walking down with Nebula. Steve went up to help him.
"I couldn't stop him." Tony said.
"Neither could I." Steve said.
"I lost them." Tony said.
'Tony, we lost." Steve said.
Pepper came to Tony.
"Oh, god, oh my god." Pepper hugs Tony.
Rocket sees Nebula alone, he knows what happened the other Guardians.
Everyone is inside, looking at pictures of the fallen. Peter sees a picture of his wife Wanda, his Aunt May, and his friend Mary Jane.
"It's been 23 days since Thanos came to Earth." Rhodes said.
"World governments are in pieces. The parts that are still working are trying to take a census, and... He did exactly what he said he was going to do. Thanos wiped out... 50% of all living creatures." Natasha explained.
"Where is he now?" Tony ask.
"We don't know, he just opened up a portal and vanished?" Steve said.
Tony and Steve sees Peter being all quiet.
"What's with him?" Tony wonders.
"He lost Wanda, even his aunt vanished that same day. It's been hard on him." Steve said.
"I guess I would too if my girlfriend vanished." Tony said.
"She wasn't my girlfriend,... she was my wife." Peter replied.
Tony was surprised to her that he is married, or was.
"Since when?" Tony said.
"On that same day before Thanos won, we got married. It didn't last, she disappeared in my arms, in front of me." Peter explained.
"And I thought that I had it rough." Tony said.
"We've been hunting Thanos for three weeks now. Deep space scans and satellites, and we got nothing. Tony, you fought him-" Steve said.
"Who said that, I didn't fight him. No, he wiped my face with a planet while a Bleeker Street Magician gave away the stone. That's what happened, there was no fight." Tony said.
"Okay, did he give any clues, any coordinates?" Steve said.
"I saw this coming a few years back, I had a vision, I didn't want to believe it. Now it's true." Tony said.
"Tony, I going to need you to focus..." Steve said.
"And I 'needed' you, as in past tenses. That trumps what you need. It's too late, buddy. Sorry. You know what I need? You know what I need? I need a shave. I don't believe I ever remember telling you this..." Tony said.
"Tony, Tony." Rhodes said.
"What we needed was a suit of armor around the world! Remember that? Whether that impacted our precious freedoms or not, that's what we needed!" Tony said.
"Well, that didn't work out, didn't it?" Steve said.
"I said we'd lose. You said, 'we'll do that together too'. Guess what, Cap. We lost, and you weren't there. But that's what we do, right? Our best work after the fact? We're the Avengers, not the Prevengers, right?" Tony said.
"Okay, you made your point. Just sit down, okay?" Rhodes said.
"Okay, no, no, here's my..." Tony said.
Tony turns his attention toward Carol.
"She's great, by the way. We need you. You're new blood." Tony said.
"Just sit down." Rhodes said.
Tony turns his attention back to Steve.
"Bunch of tired old wheels. I got nothing for you, Cap. I've got no coordinates, no clues, no strategies, no options. Zero, zip, nada. No trust, liar." Tony said.
Tony rips off his arc reactor and give it to Steve.
"Here, you find him and put that, you hide..." Tony collapses.
"Tony!" Rhodes said.
"I'm fine." Tony said.
Tony falls down on the floor. Everyone gathered to help Tony.
"Bruce gave him a sedative. He's gonna be out for the rest of the day." Rhodes said.
"You guys take care of him. And I'll bring Xorrian Elixir when I come back." Carol said.
"Where are you going?" Natasha said.
"To kill Thanos." Carol said.
"Hey, you know, we usually work as a team around here, and between you and I, we're also a little fragile." Natasha said.
"We realize out there is more of your territory, but this is our fight too." Steve said.
"He's right." Peter said.
"Do you even know where he is?" Rhodes said.
"I know people who might." Carol said.
"Don't bother. I can tell you where Thanos is. Thanos spent a long time trying to perfect me. Then when he worked, he talked about his great plan. Even disassembled, I wanted to please him. I'd ask 'where would we go once his plan was complete?'. His answer was always the same. To the Garden." Nebula said.
"That's cute. Thanos has a retirement plan." Rhodes said.
"So where is he then?" Steve asked.
"When Thanos snapped his fingers, Earth became ground zero for a power surge of ridiculously cosmic proportions. No one's ever seen anything like it... Until two days ago." Rocket show a hologram of a planet pops up. "On this planet."
"Thanos is there." Nebula said.
"He used the stones again." Natasha said.
"We'll be going in shorthanded, you know?" Bruce said.
"Look, he still got the stones." Rhodes said.
"Then that could be the answer." Peter said.
"So lets get them, use them to bring everyone back." Carol said.
"Really, just like that?" Bruce said.
"Yeah, just like that." Steve said.
"Even if there is a small chance we can undo this, we owe it to everyone who is not in this room to try." Natasha said.
"If we do this, how do we know it's going to end any differently than before?" Bruce said.
"Because before, you didn't have me." Carol said.
"Hey, new girl. Everyone here is about that superhero life. And you don't mind me asking, where the hell you've been all this time?" Rhodes said.
"There are a lot of planets in the universe, and unfortunately they didn't have you guys." Carol said.
Thor walks over to Carol, summons Stormbreaker to his hand. It passed by her, she didn't flinch.
"I like this one." Thor said.
"Then we all agree." Peter said.
"Let's go get this son of a bitch." Steve said.
The team left the atmosphere in the Guardian's ship. Peter is in his Scarlet Spider Suit.
"Okay, who hasn't been to space?" Rocket asks.
Every Avenger raised their hands.
"You better not throw up on my ship." Rocket said.
The ship made the jump, they arrive at Titan II also know as the garden. Carol flew out of the ship.
"I'll head down for recon." Carol said.
Carol flies down to the planet.
"So we wait for the Space Ranger to come." Peter said.
"You got a better idea?" Steve said.
"No." Peter said.
Steve looks at a picture of Peggy.
"This is going to work, you two." Natasha said.
"I know it is. Because I don't know what I'm going to do if it doesn't?" Steve said.
Carol came back.
"No satellites, no ships, no armies, no ground defenses of any kind, just him." Carol said.
"That's enough." Nebula said.
Thanos went out picking out some plants, he returns home to cook. He got ambushed by Captain Marvel, she held him by his neck. Hulkbuster came in and grab his left arm, War Machine got the right arm. Thor came in with Stormbreaker and chopped of his arm, Thanos yelled out in pain. Steve, Natasha, and Peter came in.
"Hello there, Barney. Remember me. You broke my arm and now you lost yours. Must be karma, makes you pay." Peter said.
Rocket and Black Cat flips the arm with the gauntlet melted on, he sees the stones are missing.
"Oh, no." Rocket said.
"Boys, we got a problem." Felicia said.
Steve sees the stones are not on the gauntlet.
"Where are they." Steve said.
"Answer the question." Carol said.
"The universe required correction. After that, the stones serve no purpose beyond temptation." Thanos said.
"YOU MURDERED TRILLIONS!" Bruce said.
"You should be grateful." Thanos said.
"Where are the stones?" Natasha said.
"Gone. Reduced to atoms." Thanos said.
"You used them two days ago." Bruce said.
"I used the stones to destroy the stones. And it nearly killed me. But the work is done, it always will be. I am... inevitable." Thanos said.
"You're lying, we have to find them. They have to be here." Peter said.
"My father is many things, a liar is not one of them." Nebula said.
"Oh, thank you, daughter. Perhaps I treated you too harshly-" Thanos said.
Thor decapitated Thanos, his head is on the floor. Thanos is dead.
"What did you do?" Rocket said.
"I went for his head." Thor said.
Thor went outside.
"That's it, there is no other way. Our only hope is gone." Peter said.
Peter and the others realize that there is no way to bring everyone back, they lost hope.
Note:This fanfic will be slow and steady, I'll try to piece together what I can get. I hope you like it. Another thing, if you're wondering about Black Cat being in the fanfic, I was able to change the last chapter in Infinity War (AU) to keep her in this story.
