So welcome to Part 13 of the 'Heroes' Series (first story of the series in 2021, YAY!), this story is going to be the one about Galactus, and I've teased it previously in Parts 8, 11 and 12 as well, and now it is here.

Once again, I would like to thank my good friend Brainstorm Sorcerer very much for his help with this fic, couldn't have done it without him, thanks a lot pal.

This fic won't be too long, since it's really only going to cover Galactus' attack on Earth and the battle against him, and then the end (after a party maybe), so that would be it.

Hope all enjoy.

Chapter 1- He is coming

Norway

Thor sat on his knees on the cliff, his eyes closed, as he was deep in meditation. This cliff was of special significance to him, as this was where his secretive but still beloved father Odin Borson, the former All-Father, had passed away.

His enchanted and powerful ax Stormbreaker was also floating above the ground right in front of him.

He came here and did this a lot, as a way to improve his control over the Odinforce till he mastered it completely. Of course his control had improved a lot by doing this already. At first he just got it in small bursts of energy which he used to do something powerful, like when he the destroyed the mechanical Ancalagon of Morgoth and when he had destroyed the moon Thanos had brought down on them.

It had continued like that for quite some time till his meditation had improved his control, and by the time of his battle against Silver Surfer, he could summon and control it for a good amount of time, and then summon it again after a few minutes.

Then by the time of the battle against Wolfram and Hart on all Earths, his control had improved by a lot, as standing, focusing and screaming gave him a huge burst of Odinforce which stayed for a very long time.

But he still needed to improve, so that he could have unlimited access to the Odinforce's power, including its reality altering capabilities, for his own benefit, as that would be useful for him, and help him in battling powerful enemies that threatened the Universe like Malekith, Hela, Surtur and Doomsday, or even worse, the Multiverse, which beings like Thanos, Morgoth, Phoenix Force and Dormammu threatened, and even the Senior Partners, though in their case it was more due to their connections than their own power, and he was sure he would have beaten them even during the time he was reliant on Mjolnir.

Then suddenly he saw something in his mind. Some visions. Of planets being destroyed. Then there were shapes of beings. The shapes looked familiar to him, why they looked familiar, he couldn't tell just yet though.

Then suddenly an eye with a square shaped pupil opened, and a hand reached out to him.

That was when it ended as Thor grasped his head in pain, opening his eyes as he put one hand on the ground to prevent himself from falling forwards. He then got up, looking completely shaken, and holding out his hand, summoned Stormbreaker, holding it.

"He's coming."

With that, Thor flew off to warn the concerned parties about this.


Same time, New York City

Parker, in his Spider-Man suit, sat alongside Wanda, right on top of the Empire State Building. It was sunset time now, and they had just finished their ice cream.

"It's so beautiful", Wanda said. "We never got to see it like this in Sokovia."

"We can see it every day if you want to", Parker told her with a smile.

"That would be nice, but I doubt we'd have the time every day", Wanda told him as they kissed, and when they parted, Wanda suddenly felt something in her mind.

Fear!

Why was she feeling it? What could be the reason? She closed her eyes, feeling a sharp pain in her head as she too saw planets being destroyed, like Thor had seen a few minutes ago before her.

Then she saw a large headpiece, that was purple in color, and by now she was trashing violently on the building to Parker's horror.

"Wanda!" Parker called out, trying to hold her. "Hey, I'm here!"

But then she suddenly fell off the building due to her violent trashing.

"WANDA!"

Parker immediately leapt off of the building to save her, managing to catch her just in time, and aiming a web at another building, fired, swinging there as he jumped onto the rooftop, holding Wanda bridal style in his arms, but she had fainted by now.

"Wanda, hey! You okay?" Parker asked before realizing something. "Wait, stupid question."

"Now what should I do? What should I do? What does a guy who has just turned adult do when his older girlfriend faints during a date?" Parker muttered to himself nervously, and then he noticed the hair on the back of his hand rising, and he felt it in the arm too. And then he felt it in his entire skin. Last time that had happened, Cull Obsidian and Ebony Maw had arrived to get the Infinity Stones for Thanos, so this time it would be disastrous as well.

But that wasn't all. His spider sense was going off with such intensity that he actually winced from the pain, holding his head as he grunted, and then he felt his Symbiote suit trembling as well, which rarely happened.

While he did not know it, his eyes turned pitch black before turning brown again.


Same time, Kamar-Taj

Doctor Strange was looking at some artefacts when a Master arrived. "Sorcerer Supreme, you are needed."

"I am coming", Strange said as he followed the Master and entered the room with the Orb of Agamotto, where several other Masters including Wong were already around it.

It was rotating erratically, and they all observed as it changed to show deep Space. Then a glow began to emanate from the center, and it took shape of a large headpiece. The same one Wanda had seen.

"What are we going to do?" One of the Masters asked.

Strange himself was pale, a rarity, as he gave his reply.

"Pray."


Few minutes later, Avengers Tower

Steve, Tony, Natasha, Bucky, Sam, Rhodes, Logan, Pietro, Terminator and Trish were sitting together, going over some recent missions when a portal opened and in walked Strange, looking grim.

Then they turned to see Parker swinging and landing onto the Tower, Wanda in his arms.

"Wanda!" Pietro called out as he sped to them, taking her from Parker's grip. "What happened to her?"

"I have no idea, she just grabbed her head and fainted suddenly", Parker told him.

Then there was a thunderclap in the sky and Thor also stood outside, slowly walking in, a grim look on his face.

"Why the down face, Point Break?" Tony asked.

"What is it?" Steve asked. "The three of your arriving at the same time, with Wanda unconscious, can't be a coincidence."

Thor and Strange exchanged a grave look as Parker asked. "What's the matter? What's going on?"

"Something crappy I'm sure", Logan muttered.

Strange then said three words to the Avengers, but the message was clear.

"He is coming."


And that is the opening done, hope it was enjoyable and established the atmosphere of threat that we're gonna get soon, and thanks to Brainstorm Sorcerer for the help with it.

So, hope everyone enjoyed and see you all next time with another chapter. Stay safe from the coronavirus ya all!
