Heading out into the night, I decided to patrol a but in hells kitchen. So far into my career, I've mostly been going far out into other areas but I want to get used to patrolling in my own area. I've been going about, stopping small pity crimes and the occasional following someone home to make sure they get back safely. I only noticed the figure following once they got close enough that the radar on my suite, which alerts me to anyone in close range, started ringing near my ear. 'Shit' I thought when I jerked back a bit which earned me getting tackled down onto the hard floor of the flat roof I'm on.
I grunted when I made impact on the floor, looking up to see the one and only daredevil in the flesh. This got out a high pitched squeak from me which I will forever stay embarrassed for.
"What are you doing in my city" he said in a low husky voice which sent shivers up my spine.
"Nothing- nothing just the usual vigilante stuff, you know" I chuckled awkwardly. My voice was similar to a robots one, earning me a cock of the head from the man pinning me down. I chuckled again, although it sounded weird with my voice changer.
"You must be the new vigilante, lights out was it?" he said while still having a tight hold on me.
Although I was still a bit tense and my heart was racing in absolute awe, I immediately replied with "Y-yeah, just patrolling a bit here and there. If it bothers you with my presence, I can patrol some where else?" I said, my voice getting quieter as I went on.
He slowly let go of me and I started to somewhat relax from my position on the floor. We both stood up, me standing more awkwardly while clearing my throat.
"I'll just... leave" I said slowly, turning around
"Wait" I paused at his voice. "I'll allow you to patrol here but only before 8pm. After that, this is my territory okay?" He said, voice still very intimidating.
I turned around and said an immediate "yes sir" with a salute even though he couldn't see it. After that I immediately jumped onto another roof and into the night.
'That went... okay' I thought while still jumping further away from where I was just attacked. Now that my brain caught up with what just happened, I couldn't help but smile to myself. 'I just held a conversation with THE daredevil. This is the best day of my life' I thought dreamily.
Its been a year now, I've become more well known, although I haven't really run into much people that I'm similar with from my world. I saw Natasha and Clint when I was doing some underground work, but it was only a quick glance. I haven't run into daredevil again, only outside of our nightly work which had me turning away and fleeing for my life. I've met Peter and Ned when I went back to the Café that MJ works at, but I only said a quick hi and then went to my usual spot to have my meal
The blip happened, me being part of the people who were blipped. It was surprisingly not as bad as I thought it would be. It was painful of course, terrifying but okay in a way. I felt guilty for doing nothing to help save those who were killed but you can't save everyone.
Definitely didn't expect me finding out that, instead of people going crazy over Iron mans sacrifice, the news showed that all the avengers survived... this confused me because wasn't Tony supposed to be dead? literally said there were only one good outcome out of millions. Unless I changed that but what did I do to do such a thing? Not only that but Natasha is alive which confuses me even more. I know for sure that Clint didn't take her place...
As I continued to confuse myself with my thoughts, I bright light took over my vision and I blinked my eyelids to come face to face with a familiar white figure. "You..." I whispered
"Well done. You've done good so far to change many things" They said with that warm tone that I remember from only a year ago. 'What did I possibly change' I thought to myself as I continued to stare in confusion.
"Ah, you may not understand what you've done to make such drastic change. After all, you did not make these changes on purpose after all"
"So you're telling me that I accidently saved both Tony and Natasha's life?" I questioned in disbelief.
"Very well, I'll show you" they said as a screen suddenly appeared with me holding an alien looking purple fluffball with four eyes. I wore my vigilante costume and seemed to be sneaking around in a dark room.
"AH, Fluffkins!" I shouted when I saw the little furball.
The screen continued to show me walking with Fluffkins on my shoulder. "Okay little guy, you've got to stay close to me okay" I whispered, not noticing as the alien jumped off my shoulder. The screen then switches to the perspective of none other then Natasha and Clint in their work clothes.
They're both whispering to each other about whatever mission they're on currently when they notice movement from the corner of their eye. Natasha makes eye contact with Clint and they both move to get ready to defend themselves. When the figure finally shows its self... they find none other then Fluffkins rolling up to them.
They both relax a bit but still have their guard up. Clint pokes the thing with his bow, checking if its dangerous in anyways. Natasha however is staring at it very intensely.
All of a sudden, she scoops it up and places it on her shoulder. Clint raises a question brow but leaves it at that and they continues their mission.
The screen turns black and and I turn a questioning look to the god of dimensions. "Keep watching" They say. I could practically hear the smirk in their voice.
The screen turns back on and it shows the same scene from Endgame, of Clint and Natasha fighting over who should sacrifice them self for the soul stone.
It flashes to the scene of Clint holding onto Natasha's arm for dear life. "It's okay" she says but before they could continue talking, Fluffkins appears from Natasha's shoulder and jumps off, falling to its death.
"NO!" Natasha yells as she tries to reach out for the furball. Clint makes sure to keep a tight hold onto her. the scene then changes to them holding the soul stone and the scene goes black...
…
"You've got to be kidding me" I say in absolute disbelief... all the god does is nod and say "Next"
"wait so we're not gonna talk about that?" I say earning a bit of silence before the screen started playing once again.
I just groaned and refocused my attention to whatever is next.
It shows Peter holding the infinity gauntlet, dodging groups of enemies on the battlefield that I recognized as the battle after everyone was brought back. Peter seems to be searching for someone, who? I have no idea. Those on his side help him get to whoever he's looking for. When he finally spot who he's looking for, he yells out "Black panther!"
Black panther turns around after hitting another enemy who tried to hit him from behind. "Yes Spider man?" he asks in genuine curiosity. "You need to snap your fingers with the infinity gauntlet! You're the only one free right now that I know can do it without many complications!" He says quickly. "We don't have time, do it!" he yelled as he shoved the glove into his chest.
Black panther reacts fast and puts on the glove and snaps his fingers.
The screen once again goes black and I'm standing there with wide eyes. "Wait, but how did I influence that one?" I questioned.
"Continue watching" Is all they say.
The scene shows Peter rushing up to Tony Stark, excitedly saying "We won! We did it Mr. Stark" All Tony does is smile and nod, tired and relieved.
Everyone is shown coming together as they all have smiles on their face. Black panther comes from behind Peter and asks him "How did you know that I would be able to do the snap?" He asked curious. "Oh! I remember this one meme from one of my favorite online artists! They call them self Vio and they mentioned Black Panther having a suit that absorbs energy and stuff, so I thought , wouldn't that also apply to the infinity stones? And yeah" He said excitedly.
Everyone who heard his explanation were quiet for a few seconds before Tony came up to him and hugged him again saying "never change kid" while laughing.
The screen goes black and I can only stare absolutely flabbergasted. "Peter likes my art and memes!? Wow..." I said as a smile started to appear on my face.
"Well that is all, you still have more to take care of so I'll return you to your apartment. Good luck child" They said before I once again blacked out.
