Chapter 8: Aaaanndd Quill Ruins Everything

(Jason)

Strange threw portals everywhere. Jason fell through one, landed right on Thanos, and slammed him in the head with the butt of his sword. Thanos shook his head briefly like a dazed dog, but recovered almost immediately.

Spider-Man fell through one and came out to Thanos' left. "Magic!" He punched Thanos in the head and fell through a different portal.

"More magic!" He yanked Thanos' head down and fell through yet another portal.

"Magic with a kick!" Peter delivered a flying kick and dropped into a glowing portal.

"Magic with a-"

Thanos grabbed Peter and threw him to the ground, his hand around Peter's neck. "Insect!" He growled. He then threw Peter at Strange, using the dominoes affect and knocking them both down. Thanos finally teared away the cloak of levitation from his arm, and is then promptly surrounded by fiery explosions from Iron Man's blasters.

Thanos sucked away all the flames into his gauntlet using the power stone and then threw it all back at Tony which hit him far away, plowing him into a huge machine.

"That was rude." Jason flew over on the winds and prepared to duel with Thanos once again.

Sparring one-on-one with the Mad Titan took all of Jason's fighting skills. He took on his training from the legion, as well as his training from Camp Half-Blood so he was combining both Greek and Roman sword fighting skills.

Jason didn't think he'd battled such an opponent since Porphyrion, the king of the giants himself. He dodged blasts from the power stone and the space stone with difficulty. It was all he could do to stay alive. "How are you doing this?" Thanos grunted.

Jason decided to go big or go home. He summoned a lightning bolt, electricity arching through his sword and slamming onto Thanos' gauntlet. It didn't even crack.

"I'm the son of Jupiter!" Jason yelled. "I destroyed Kronos' throne, I sent the Titan Krios back from the hole he came from, I battled alongside the gods in the second Giant War, and sent the king of the giants back Tartarus to the hard way. I'm not about to be defeated by a purple chin and a golden glove."

Thanos stepped back instinctively. Jason stabbed Thanos in the leg, sweeping his sword behind him before Thanos even had a chance to respond. He gritted his teeth, but otherwise showed no indication that he'd even felt the sword wound.

Luckily, this gave Peter Parker time to kick Thanos in the head again, webbing his gauntlet right after Thanos sent a beam of energy over to Iron Man, pushing him yet even farther away.

Jason smiled. Thanos still didn't take him seriously, because he was probably the youngest in the group, besides Peter. Peter himself was a confirmation that size was no guarantee of power.

Thanos yanked on Peter's webline, pulling the light teenager towards him and he punched him on the way past. He teared the webbing of his gauntlet just in time for a spaceship to land on him.

Jason instantly went into fighting stance. Just because whoever was on that ship landed on Thanos didn't mean that that person was an ally.

Thanos struggled to his feet. The owner of the ship jumped out, and standing there was a girl (at least Jason assumed it was a girl) with blue and grey skin that looked part robot.

"Well, well." Thanos said.

"You should have killed me." The woman said coldly.

"Would have been a waste of parts!" The woman yelled and charged Thanos, drawing her electric blades.

"Where is Gamora?"

The fighting started back up again, having momentarily paused from the anticipation. "It's okay!" Quill yelled, putting up his mask. "That's Nebula. She's a frie-"He stopped, mending his statement. "Well, she won't kill us. Probably."

"Perfect." Jason growled. Thanos punched Nebula away. Doctor Strange used glowing red bands to pin Thanos' gauntlet to the ground. He tried to pull free, but Drax slid in from his right, kicking his knee and knocking him off balance.

Drax wrapped around Thanos' kneeling leg. Star-Lord shot an electric on the ground near Thanos' feet, the magnetic charge pulling him down to the ground.

Spider-Man swung in, webbed Thanos' chest, and dug his legs into the ground along with his metal spider-legs to anchor himself.

"Piper, now!" Jason yelled. Piper landed right in front of him along with Frank. "Look who's finally joined the party." Jason said.

Piper rolled her eyes, just as Doctor Strange opened a portal, dropping Mantis on top of Thanos' head, who bellowed as she tried to put him under.

"He is very strong! I will need help!" Mantis said. "That's what I'm here for. This worked for Gaea. It's gonna work for him." Piper said confidently.

Jason started pulling on Thanos' gauntlet, pouring all his demigod strength into the task. Frank turned into a bear and started helping as well.

Iron Man flew in and started pulling too. "Is he under? Don't let up."

"Not yet he isn't." Piper said, and then faced Thanos. "You are so tired." She said sympathetically. "Years and years of pursuing your goal. You need to rest, and when you wake up you will be more read than ever to pursue your goal, but first you need to do one word." Piper said, her voice radiating kindness. "You… need… to… SLEEP!"

Thanos' eyes rolled back into his head, Mantis keeping him that way. Piper collapsed on the ground, her charmspeaking taking all she had. "Mantis, you have to keep going. My charmspeak won't keep him forever."

Mantis nodded, her eyes shut tight in concentration. Doctor Strange reapplied his magical bands, pulling on the gauntlet harder than ever. Jason used the winds to help give him propulsion. Mantis started to cry. "Be quick. He is very strong." She said again.

"Parker help!" Tony yelled, gesturing with his free hand over to Peter. "She needs help." Peter ran over and applied his strength as well.

Jason could feel the gauntlet sliding off. Just a few more moments. Just a few more… Jason prayed as hard as he could.

Peter Quill flew over and landed tauntingly in front of Thanos. "I thought you'd be harder to catch. For the record, this was my plan. Not so strong now, huh? Now where's Gamora?"

Thanos groaned in his forced sleep. "My… Gamora…."

"Oh, bull crap." Quill snarled. "Where is she?"

"He is in anguish." Mantis said, shocked. "Good." Quill replied. "He-he mourns!" Mantis said.

"What does this monster have to mourn for?" Drax snarled, still holding Thanos down.

"Gamora." Nebula said suddenly, standing above them all. Quill froze. "What?" Nebula looked devastated. "He took her to Vormir. He came back with the Soul Stone… but she didn't."

Tony and Jason looked at each other in horror. Tony de-helmeted. "Okay Quill, you gotta cool it right now, you understand?"

Quill slowly turned to Thanos slowly, rage and grief on his features. Tony started shouting. "Don't, don't, don't engage, we've almost got this off!"

"Quill, don't! Don't, it's not a good time, it's really not a good time-"Jason's protests petered off. Heh, Peter, petered off. Sorry, bad pun.

"Tell me she's lying." Quill said quietly.

"Quill…"

"YOU IDIOT! Tell me you didn't do it!"

"I… had… to…" Thanos moaned.

"No you didn't!" Quill started to quietly tear up. "No you didn't!" Quill pistol whipped Thanos twice in the face, causing Mantis to let go in pain. Jason stood there, paralyzed, unable to stop what he knew was going to happen.

Piper struggled to her feet, her face white. "Quill, you've got to…" Her charmspeak barely did anything. Quill shook it off like it was a gnat flying around his face.

"NO YOU DIDN'T!" Quill yelled, enraged.

"Quill!" Tony, Jason, and Drax all said at the same time, horrified. Iron Man leaped at Quill, leaving Peter, Jason, and Frank to continue working it off.

"Stop!" Tony yelled. "Hey, stop, stop, stop!"

"It's coming, it's coming!" Spider-Man said. They had now pried the fingers completely loose. "I've almost got it, I've almost-"

Thanos woke up completely, now well and truly furious. He pulled the gauntlet securely back on to his arm, knocking Peter Parker away. He threw Mantis off his head, and she flew into the air.

Jason swooped and grabbed Piper out from under Thanos just as he aimed a swipe at her head.

Jason set her down and made to fly away. "I'm fine!" Piper called, and struggled to her feet. She drew her dagger. Jason caught a glimpse of random people crumbling away, but that knife was unreliable… wasn't it?

Jason saw Mantis with far too much air under her, and caused the winds to solidify, bringing her safely down. At the same time, he drew his sword and made to try and chop off the gauntlet arm.

Thanos harnessed the power stone and blew Jason back a good ten feet. His head hit the rocks and his vision darkened. Jason shook his head, ignoring the pain.

No, he thought. I refuse to back down now. He got slowly to his feet and stumbled towards Thanos once again.

Somewhere, deep inside, Jason knew that this wouldn't be enough. If only he wouldn't get in trouble for killing a mortal.

QUILL!

A/N This was my least favorite chapter to right, knowing that I had the power to have Nebula knock Quill out or something, but couldn't because THAT DARN PLOT! Anyway, sorry for the long wait for the update, plus the update wasn't very long. Okay, shout out to reviewers:
