Hello! This chapter finally has the team meeting Sersi for the mysterious Seventh Stone while learning the backstory of their enemy.

Hope you all like it!

"We've landed on Hiberlac everyone. Keep your guard up. This planet is mostly unknown and we have no idea what might be waiting for us here." Carol told the team as they all exited the ship and walked down to the surface.

Hiberlac was planet shrouded in mystery. The sky was cloudy and there was fog everywhere. Trees were around and so were rivers on the surface. The team noticed they landed near a lake of some sorts and began heading north to look for Sersi there. Which was hard to do because of the fog.

"Yeah, this place seems about right." Tony sarcastically said to the laughter of the team.

"Wouldn't be a mission to save the universe without visiting a place like here, Tony." Steve joked patting Tony on the back.

"True, true. By the way, anyone that can make some lights with their powers or weapons or whatever would be greatly appreciated." Tony told the team who proceeded to do so.

Tony and Rhodey made lights with their suits, Thor made a light summoning some non-lethal lighting, Carol charged her hands to make some light, and the rest of the team like Natasha and Clint used glow sticks.

"I think I see some cave ahead." Informed Rocket to the team who all then went inside it.

"We can make shelter here for now, but then we got to keep mo…." Tony started to tell team before being irrupted by a voice.

"Welcome, Avengers. I have been expecting you all." Said the voice of a woman with long black hair, green eyes, wearing a green outfit and appeared with green glowing hands from the dark end of the cave.

"Um, you're not working for Thanos are you?" Tony asked a little freaked out by the appearance of this mysterious person.

"No, not in the slightest. I am The Eternal Sersi. Welcome to Hiberlac, Avengers. I can sense why you came and I would like for you all to follow me inside this cave." Sersi told the team who followed her to the end of the cave. After following her for about ten minutes, they finally reached the end of it and Sersi took a seat on a boulder. "I'm glad you all could come." Sersi told the team who all looked ready for answers.

"Thank you. My Ant friend here has something he needs to tell you." Tony said while motioning Scott to come over and tell her what he saw in The Quantum Realm.

"Right. Well, you see, last month I got stuck in The Quantum Realm again for about a day, but while I was there, I saw a vision of the six Infinity Stones. And if that wasn't strange enough, it showed me another vision right after that of a Seventh Stone." Scott explained to Sersi who clearly knew what he was talking about.

"My friend Eitri said you, The Eternals might know of this. Lilandra also said you specifically could help us." Thor told Sersi who began to tell the team something about this.

"Indeed. I know of it and have it now." Sersi told the eager team.

"Could you please give it to us? Thanos used the other six Infinity Stones to wipe out half of all life last month and we're doing everything we can to fix it." Steve stressed to Sersi.

"Before I reveal it to you, I think you should see something." Sersi said as the team began to experience a vision.

"In the beginning, as you all know, only six Infinity Stones were thought to exist. But there was another, a Seventh Stone known as The Ego Stone. Many had tried early on to get it, but we Eternals have guarded it against unworthy beings for thousands of years." Sersi explained to the team while they saw visions of this Stone that was white just like Scott saw in The Quantum Realm.

"Eitri said my father sought it out. Is this true?" Thor asked wanting to know what might have caused his father to change like he did.

"Yes. He came here fifteen hundred years ago to seek it out. When he came face to face with us, we could sense he was not worthy to wield it and denied it to him. He was angry and tried to kill us, but we brought him down to his knees and made him promise to never speak of its existence and warned him to stop his war of blood." Sersi explained to Thor who just looked even more disappointed with his father then he already was.

"Does Thanos know of The Ego Stone?" Natasha asked fearing what could happen if that monster got his hands on it.

"No. We made sure of that. Thanos' entire existence was a mistake. His mother Sui-San saw it first. She looked into her newborn eyes and saw only a monster that would bring nothing but death and destruction to the universe." Sersi told the team while they saw visions of what she just told them. "She tried to kill him before he would grow up to become the plague he is now, but his father, A'lars intervened. He claimed to have seen a great destiny for his son, but he was incorrect. And before he realized what his son was, it was too late." Sersi explained to the team as they saw visions of A'lars who oddly enough looked human.

"What happened?" Tony asked, wanting anything he could on Thanos.

"Titan, their home planet happened. A few hundred years ago, Titan was facing a crisis. There was a shortage of food and the planet itself was overpopulated. Thanos had a plan to save his people. A'lars was on the council and Thanos went to his father to persuade him and the rest of the council that Titan could be saved by culling fifty percent of the population. A'lars and the council simply laughed at that and called him a mad man. Thanos got angry at that and began to argue with his father. You see, due to his condition Thanos was considered a "freak" on Titan, and along with his population control plan, it was enough for A'lars and the council to exile him as his father over time began to regret sparing his son for failing living up to his expectations. After his exile, Titan eventually collapsed and died out, haunting and mentally scarring Thanos for the rest of his life. It's why he invaded planets to cull their populations and now why he used the Stones to cull half of life in the universe. To his twisted self, he thinks he's giving the universe the chance his people didn't have." Sersi explained as they saw visions of the events she described.

To Tony, this was so much good stuff to use for when they met one last time, yet for some reason, Thanos reminded him of himself. He didn't like the thought of that at all, but it had been bugging him ever since they dueled each other back on Titan last month.

"We made sure to keep The Seventh Stone hidden for as long as we could, but now it's time you take it and use it to undo what he did." Sersi told the team as The Ego Stone then appeared in the palm of her right hand. "This Stone must be used with all six of Stones for you to able to use it. With it, you can do whatever you want without if affecting the wearer, but be warned, only those true of heart can wield its power." Sersi said summoning a wooden box container and placing the Stone in it. She then handed the box to Tony who nodded with the rest of the team in gratitude for her help.

"Thank you. We promise we'll return this to you when we've undone what Thanos did." Steve told Sersi who nodded and told them, "I know you will. No go. Return to your planet and get ready. Once Thanos learns of The Seventh Stone, he will come for you all." Sersi warned the team as she teleported away.

The team then walked back to the ship and took their seats. They all felt a little better having this Seventh Stone, but it wouldn't mean a thing if they couldn't get the gauntlet off Thanos. They would worry about that later and for now, just high tail it back to earth and wait for Thanos to show up.

"Alright, Rabbit and other good Captain, we all know it won't take that long that bastard to find out about this Stone, so let's return back to earth as fast as possible." Thor told Rocket and Carol as they lifted the ship off the ground and back into space and punched in the coordinates to earth and took off.

Hope everyone liked that! Thanos chapter next!
