We all sat in the briefing room, Steve leading the meeting "Okay, so the How works, now we have got to figure out the when and the where. Almost everyone in this room has had an encounter with at least one of the six infinity stones." Tony then said "Or substitute the word 'encounter' for 'damn near been killed' by one of the 6 infinity stones." Scott then said "Well I haven't, I don't even know what the hell you're talking about." Bruce then said "Regardless, we only have enough Pym Particles for one round trip each, and these stones have been in a lot of different places throughout history." Tony took over "Our history, so not a lot of convenient spots to drop in, yeah?" I then said "And we can not reveal ourselves to our younger selves, we would break time." Rhodey then said "Wait, didn't you interact with yourself on multiple occasions David? The invasion of the Nazi's, the Dominators, and I know you did it in Wakanda." I nodded "I am what Rip says the Time Masters called a Time Anomaly. Time needed me to interact with myself at certain points, however strict rules needed to be followed." Clint then cut in and said "This aside, we need to pick our targets." Steve then said "So lets start with the Aether, Thor, what do you know?" Thor laid unmoving. Natasha asked "Is he asleep?" Rhodes then said "No no, I'm pretty sure he's dead." I rolled my eyes "I've got this" I flicked some lighting from my finger tip, hitting him, which woke him up "What what?" I then said "Thor, Aether, explain, go." He then grunted and stood up.

"Where to start? Um. The Aether, firstly, is not a stone. Someone called it a stone before. Um its more of am angry sludge sort of a thing.. So someone is going to need to amend that and stop saying that. Here's an interesting story though, about the aether. My grandfather, many years ago, had to hide the stone from the Dark Elves. Oooohhhh, scary beings.." He chuckled, I grunted "wasn't so scary when they were dying at my blade." Thor then said "I'm getting to that David stop ruining the story.." I sighed, he then continued "So Jane, actually.. Oh there she is. Yeah so Jane was an old flame of mine. You know, she stuck her hand inside a rock this one time... and the Aether stuck itself inside her..and she became very very sick. And so I had to take her to Asgard, which is where I'm from and we uh.. Had to try and fix her. We were dating at the time you see... and I got to introduce her to my mother...who's dead and um...oh you know, Jane and I aren't even dating anymore so..." I stood up and said "Okay buddy.. I've got this, sit down Have some breakfast or something." I then continued "Okay, I was there for most of the Convergence. Jane was infected by the Aether, Malecath wanted the Aether.. We fought on Asgard, barely won, so we took Jane to the Dark world to coax Malecath into retrieving the Aether so we could destroy it. That didn't work out and we lost.. But later on earth Thor and I stopped the Dark Elves and Asgard took possession of the Aether and after that I know nothing of it until it appears on Thano's gauntlet 5 years later. So our area of opportunity is Asgard 2013. Easy pickings there. Next?" I sat down.

Rocket stood up next "Quill said he stole the power Stone from Morag." Bruce then said "Is that a person?" Rocket then said "No, Morag's a planet. Quill was a person. " Scott then said ""Like a planet, like in outter space." Rocket then said "Oh look. It's like a little puppy all happy and everything. Do you want to go to space, you wanna go to space puppy? I'll take you to space." Natasha then said "Rocket, focus." Rocket rolled his eyes "Fine. Before Morag its whereabouts is unknown. After Ronan, it was kept by the Nova Corp, too high security to obtain without an army. Which is how Thanos got it." Nebula then stood up and said "And next we have the Soul stone. Thanos found the Soul Stone on Vormir" Natasha then asked "What is Vormir?" Nebula said "A dominion of death. At the very center of celestial existence. It's where Thanos murdered my sister" We took a break after that.. Things were getting too despresing.

Natasha, Tony, Bruce and I continued to think of the stones. "The time Stone.. Was attached to a Doctor." Tony said. Natasha asked "What kind of Doctor was he?" Tony then replied "Ear-nose-throat meets rabbit-from-hat." Bruce then said "Nice place in the village though." Tony then said "Yeah, on Sullivan Street?" "Bleecker" Natasha then said "Wait he lived in new york?" I nodded "It does seem that way hunny" Natasha then said "Guys.. If you pick the right year, there are three stones in new york." I smiled slightly "So literally.. 3 of the 6 stones we need we can get in one place! Easy pickings!" Bruce sat up "Shut the front door seriously!?" Natasha nodded "Lets gather the rest of the team!"

"All right, we have a plan. 6 stones, 3 teams, one shot." Steve said. I nodded "So take some time, suit up. And lets make history... again." Natasha smiled at me and we split to go about our own things before time traveling.

Natasha and I went to our room to have some private talk before the mission. Once in privacy I pulled Natasha in for a hug. "I wish I could be going with you." I murmured into her hair. She nodded slightly "Me too David.. Me too. You need to accompany Thor and Rocket on Asgard. Rocket has no idea of Asgard's layout and it is bound to be emotional for Thor to be back there.. He will need his brother of the sky to help him with it. I will be fine." I sighed "But Vormir though? A literal dominion of death... why couldn't you be on the Morag team?" She chuckled "That's why Clint and I have Harry on our team. He is as close to a master of death as we have. His magic will help us get the stone. Don't worry about me, I'll be okay." I pulled away and looked at her "Maybe we should pull Saphira from Alagaesia. I would feel better if you had her watching your back." She chuckled "you know she wouldnt fit in the Melano." I sighed "Yeah you are right.." She then pulled away and walked over to her closest with her suit in it and opened it "Have you.. Thought about what you are going to do if we pull this off?" she asked.. Without looking at me "I haven't thought too much about it to be honest.. I haven't allowed myself to think about it." She then said "Think about it.. Please. You Will have Zeus back.. Eragon too. What will you do? Go back to Alagaesia?" I looked down, now thinking of Zeus.. But also thinking of the life I had lead here the past 5 years without him. I said "I guess I would.. Yeah." She nodded still looking away from me "I expected as much.. So We may get everyone back.. But I'm going to lose you.." I looked at her and walked over slowly and hugged her from behind, her falling back into my embrace. "You won't ever lose me Tasha.. I love you... I was hoping you would consider coming with me... Think about it.. Back in 2013 when I came back to Earth I chose to stay as the world needed Iron Thunder.. It needed its heroes. Since then we have seen the ranks of heroes grow. We have a new generation of Avengers ready to take over. Wanda, Sam, T'challa, Peter, Rhodey, Jason, Scott just to name a few. Not to mention the Justice League.. The Flash.. Superman and Supergirl, Green Lantern and so on. The world isn't what it once was. We can retire.. Properly this time. Go back to Alagaesia.. Live out the rest of your days.. Or maybe you will Bond with a Dragon and then we would have eternity together. Maybe adopt some elven children..?" She turned around in the embrace to face me "Could we visit Earth Occasionally?" I nodded "Of course.. Clint's kids still need to see their Aunt Nat and Uncle Dave." She grinned "Then yes! Yes! Yes to all of it!" I grinned then said "Wait.. So we are going to become parents some day soon?" She nodded "I never thought I would want kids.. But that picture you just painted.. I want that. So yes!"

She then kissed me tenderly on the lips, I kissed her back slowly. Soon her speed increased and I responded in fashion. She lifted up one of her legs and wrapped it around mine. In response I lowered one of my hands to grab her ass, squeezing it. This elicited an increase in her enthusiasm kissing me. Finally she pulled away and lifted her shirt above her head. She then reached behind herself and undid her bra, shrugging it off her shoulders and letting it fall to the floor. I smiled and lifted my own shift over my head throwing it to the ground. We then embraced again in a kiss, her guiding one of my hands to her breast, me squeezing it and massaging it with her hand over mine encouraging me. Her other hand gently caressed my shaft through my pants.

After a couple minutes of this she gently pushed me back onto the bed, her hands grabing the wasteband of my pants and pulling them down, revealing my fully erect member. She then grabbed the shaft and lightly teased it with her tongue, running it up and down. My head rolled back in pleasure. She then smirked before taking the head in her mouth. She sucked and began to bop her head up and down, tongue twirling around the tip. She continued to do this for a few minutes and just as she began to feel the pulsing of me about to cum she stop. "Not yet Iron Thunder, I still need your arrow in me." This got a small chuckle from me. She quickly removed her tights before she climbed on top of me. She then began to rub her clit against my cock, teasing it some more, and no doubt turning her on. I whispered "Come on Mrs Shuter-Razacrazer, Little Thunder wants you so bad" She smirked and then directed me into her. She moaned softly as each inch sheathed inside her. "Now thats more like Big Thunder" She moaned softly before beginning to roll her hops back and forth. Her boobs bouncing as she did this. I reached my hands up and cupped her breasts. She pushed her chest into my hands and moved her hips faster.

She continued like this for a while before switching it up, moving her legs so she could properly squat. She then began to bounce up and down on my dick, both of us moaning at the new sensation. I began to move my hips as well, meeting her bounces with thrusts. She moaned a little louder. Finally I rolled us over and began to enter her again when she said "Wait... Remember what we did our first time together 11 years ago.. I want to try that again." I smirked "Well then.. Who am I to say no to that?" I moved my dick to her asshole and slowly slid it in, it being well lubbed up by how wet she had been. She gasped with each inch. Finally when it was fully sheathed she bit her lip and looked up at me, going for the vulnerable look. I then began to thrust slowly into her. She breathed heavily during this. I slowly picked up the pace until she was moaning. I played with her clit as I thrust into her ass.

After a while she must have noticed from my face I was getting close because she gasped "Put it back in my pussy, I want to feel your hot cum inside me" I pulled out and sheathed myself back in her pussy, pumping as fast as I could. She cried out as she came from the sudden penetration. I pumped a few more times before I too came. I collapsed into her, nestling my face in her neck, kissing her softly as I panted. She was panting too but she wrapped her arms around me, her finger tips gently caressing the nape of my neck. "I love you" I murmured "I love you too baby." She murmured back.

After a few minutes rest we got up and started to get dressed. She pulled on her leather suit and I pulled on some black pants and a black T-shirt. Natasha looked at me and smirked "You took time heist way too seriously." I shrugged and asked 'Can you pass me my suit." She nodded and picked up my housing unit from the dresser beside her and tossed it to me. I caught it and attached it to my chest, wincing slightly as it embedded itself in my skin. I then picked up our time space GPS's and threw one to Natasha. We both put ours on and the suit portion materialized on us. I smirked "Well look at us.. For the first time ever, we're matching." She rolled her eyes and said "Lets go meet up with the others.. Its time." I then grabbed her arm "Wait." I pulled her into another hug and said softly "Be safe. I've said it before and I will say it again.. I don't want to lose what I have just for the chance to gain back what I have already lost." She then said "You too my love, you too." We then went to the time machine room to meet with the others.

We walked up to the machine as a team, all sporting the new suits, looking pretty badass I am sure. We then took our places on the platform, myself right beside Natasha. Steve began his speech. "5 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 eachother. This is the fight of our lives and we're gonna win. Whatever it takes. Good luck" Rocket then said "He's pretty good at that." Scott "Right?" I smirked slightly "I don't know.. One time he told us to walk off death.. That was pretty powerful." I then turned and faced Natasha's team, Clint and Harry. I then said "I'm trusting you two to bring my wife back home to me safe and sound." Harry then said "You've got it mate." Natasha then rolled her eyes with a brief smirk at me before saying "Rocket, Thor, I'm trusting you to keep my idiot of a husband out of trouble." Rocket laughed "You kidding? He's probably the most likely to stay out of trouble." I just smiled slightly "Well then we really are screwed.". We then got ready. Natasha smirked at me "See you in a minute love." I smirked back "I'll be counting the seconds, my sweet." I willed my helmet to activate just as the machine started working. Natasha and I looked at eachother one more time before we shrunk down and the machine swallowed us.
