Marvelous Angel

Chapter: Sixty two

Part One: End of Games


Earth: Five years later

Five years later, Earth's remaining population has attempted to persevere against catastrophic losses. The massive genocide has traumatized the world and has stagnated much of their progress, with the path to recovery remaining slow. Rogers now participates in and/or runs a support group for citizens of New York City who are trying to cope with surviving the Snap and their losses.

In a U-STORE-It Self-Storage facility in San Francisco, a rat accidentally activates the Quantum Tunnel in Luis' Van, which had been impounded after the Snap, finally pulling Scott Lang and Hank Pym out of the Quantum Realm. Disoriented and confused, Lang along with Pym wondered what happened when they were gone for five hours.

"Did you get the van towed." Asked Pym?

"No," said Lang "If it did wouldn't your wife and daughter be here to bail us out."

"Nevermind," grunted Pym "Let's find out what happened."

The two have no idea what had happened or transpired five years ago, to them only five hours have just passed. They drive out of the impound storage facility and head into the heart of San Francisco. Driving around they discovered something weird, shouldn't there be more people.

Until they came across large memorial in the park, with people looking at names on stone. Hank and Scott got out of the van to check on the names. According to the information this happened five years ago. Hank found his wife and daughter are among the vanished. Scott found his ex-wife is on the list, but not his daughter.

"Five hours my ass," said Scott "More like five years, can you explain."

"Time is different in the quantum real," said Pym "Maybe some glitch caused us to free us from the realm...but five years. I don't know what went on."

"My daughter is not on the list," said Lang "I need to go see here."

"Alright let's go," sighed Pym.

After which they got into the van and drove for awhile. They noticed piles of garbage is around and abandoned vehicles. Even certain houses were not in good shape and weeds are everywhere. It was finally they came to where Scott's daughter lives. So he stepped out of the vehicle and walked towards the door. He knocked the door a few times.

Echoing in the background footsteps are heard. When the door opened Scott was expecting a little girl, but a teenager. She looked shocked to see her dad had not disappeared like the others, she burst into years and hugged him right.

"I thought you vanished like the others." She said

"No, we were trapped in the quantum realm." Said Lang "It's hard to explain."

"Everyone heard a snap," she said "Then people vanished, everyone gone...even the battle angel is gone."

"Alita's gone.. ." Repeated Pym "Damn."

"I want to spend time with my daughter," said Lang "Then we will go see the Avengers."

"Agreed," nodded Pym "They may know something."


Avengers Facility,

Romanoff, now the leader of the Avengers, is concluding a meeting with Nebula, Okoye, Danvers, Namor, and Xavier, regarding the continued repercussions of the Snap throughout the universe. Following the dismissal, Xavier remains behind to give a status update regarding his former teammate and her friend.

Clint Barton, who has become a vigilante known as Ronin following the disintegration of his family. Xavier suspects Barton is responsible for the deaths of multiple Mexican Cartel members, which upsets Romanoff.

Despite his apprehension, Romanoff pleads with Xavier to continue tracking Barton. Rogers enters the room and the two console each other, admitting that while they've now devoted their lives to helping others move on from what happened, neither of them ever can. The gloomy mood is interrupted when Lang and Pym arrives at the compound. While initially skeptical.

Upon arrival, both is greeted by Romanoff and Rogers, his idol, and the four begin discussing the means of his survival where Lang and Pym explains their own experience in the Quantum Realm and how they might use it to undo the events of the Snap.

"We will need Stark for this," said Rogers.

"You got me on this, can't rely on a Stark to help out." Said Pym.

"We still need him, I know you got issues with Howard Stark, but Tony is different." Said Rogers.

"Okay fine." Said Pym.


Stark's home

At his lakeside home, Stark is enjoying quality time with his daughter when Rogers, Romanoff, and Pym arrive. Stark immediately understands the nature of their visit but still questions their inquiry. When Pym proposes the idea of a Time Heist.

Stark quickly criticizes the idea, fearing that altering the past could erase their very existence as it stands, and expressing concern for the endangered existence of his daughter should their plan fail.

"Your father Howard Stark never gave up on his ideas," said Pym

"Look, I'm not my father." Stark snapped at Pym "We lost a lot of people including my godmother Alita..." He sighed sadly

Stark explains his desire to put the past behind him and tells them he's finished with the Avengers.

"This is a waste of time," said Pym "He's just given up."

"No," said Natasha "Alita meant everything to us and the world, with her gone a piece of Tony had gone with him."

"I know the feeling." Said Rogers "We need someone as smart as Tony."

"Besides me," said Pym "I think I know a guy, although I don't know if he survived the snap."

"Name," asked Natasha?

"Reed Richards." Said Pym


The Baxter Building

"So, why do they call you Mister Fantastic." Asked Natasha?

"Uh, other students used to call me that nickname." Said Richards. "Ask Hank I was one of his students."

"Can you help us," said Rogers

"I would have to agree with Stark," said Richards "Time travel is dangerous and unpredictable, so no."

"We lost people to the snap." said Pym

"I know," sighed Richards "Johnny and Ben are gone because of the snap. Sue decided to move on and as for me. I just keep busy."

"Let's go." Grunted Rogers.


While Tony is washing dishes he accidentally gets a picture of his dad wet, and then comes across a picture of himself, Alita and Petra Parker. Being reminded of how he lost him in the Snap five years before, he uses F.R.I.D.A.Y. to simulate models for time travel in the Quantum Realm. Despite expecting and hoping not to fail, he succeeds just before giving up, much to his shock, by using an inverted Möbius strip model.


Later on

Pym, Rogers, and Romanoff run an experiment with time travel by trying to send Lang back in time. Instead of sending him through time, they send time through him: he turns into a child, an old man, and finally a baby before they manage to restore him to normal.

Rogers leaves the room, contemplating outside of the building about what to do next. This is when Tony arrives and offers to help with Pepper. The three of them chat which they are going to do this to set things right.

Having built the machine, then testing it. The team is assembled consisting of Pepper Potts, Nebula, Barton, Scott Lang, Natasha, Thor, Drax, Tony and Rogers which they wore designed suits for the trip. Steve Rogers to the assembled team. Pym will be remaining behind.

"Five years ago, we lost. All of us. We lost friends. We lost family. We lost a part of ourselves. Today, we have a chance to take it all back. You know your teams, you know your missions. Get the stones, get them back. One round trip each. No mistakes. No do-overs. Most of us are going somewhere we know, that doesn't mean we should know what to expect. Be careful. Look out for each other. This is the fight of our lives. And we're going to win. Whatever it takes. Good luck." said Rogers

"Just let you all know this isn't just for us," said Stark "This us for everyone we lost." He pulled out Alita's blade of Damascus and plowed it right to the ground "For Alita."

"For Alita." Smiled Rogers

"For Quill." Said Drax

"We are Groot," said Groot

"For Petra." Said Pepper

"For Asgard," said Thor.

"For Gamora." Said Nebula.

"For my family," said Barton

"For old times sake." Said Natasha.

"Avengers assemble" cried Rogers


Mars: The future

It took some time to build the M.C.U or Martian Commonwealth United into a fighting force that can attack Earth and take down Zalam. Alita and Gelda provided the others with certain technology and weapons. Although Logan and Magneto didn't need any due to their powers. Banner changed into the hulk.

Rocket loved his new weapons and Rhodes is getting used to the new war machine Mark Two. Petra Parker Spider Girl is getting used to training on Mars and she had upgraded her web shooters and suit. Even new colors of white and black.

Alita, Gelda, Fury, and Loki are going over the attack plan which it won't be easy. Despite this future people being snapped out of existence Earth still has defenses. Dyson Ido will stay behind and Quill got a new ship named the Milano

"Okay list up," said Alita "You know what is at stake. We head to Earth and attack Zalam."

"The true enemy is Nova," said Gelda "Responsible for the fall, along with many hardships in all of our lives."

"We got intelligence that Nova got his hands on something that is causing chronon particles." Said Fury.

"Sounds like Nova is trying to fuck with time," said Logan.

"The time stone," said Rocket "We get our hands on it, maybe we can go back in time to prevent the snap."

"Indeed," said Alita "Whatever it takes, we fight and fight to free the future. For those we left behind. This isn't about them it's about everything and everyone...now Avengers Assemble." Cried Alita.
