A/N: sorry I haven't updated in a while, been working on another fan fiction including the loser club from IT go check it out if your interested it's called back to Derry.

Nat's POV

Before we could do anything Steve and Tony were thrown back, they landed not to far away from us. We all bolted for them. Half of us went to Steve the other to tony. I went straight to Cap's side and belt beside him. Half his face was burnt with purple cracks through it, he wasn't moving. I put my ear down to his chest... no heart beat. "No. No. This can't happen. Not now." I muttered frantically. I took his hand to try feel a pulse on his wrist...nothing. I looked up to okoye, Scott, Thor and Carol and all I could do was look down and shake my head. I could feel the tears welling up in my eyes, I placed his hand down and went over to Clint who was with tony. Bruce, rocket, Rhodes and Loki surrounded him. I sat down next to Clint "is he ok?" I asked with a shaky voice.

"He's breathing, so I guess that's good. How about Cap? Is he ok?" He responded

I looked down "he didn't make it" I said shakily

Clint froze and so did everyone else.

"what?" Clint said in disbelief

"Captain America died?" Rhodes said also in disbelief.

Clint hugged me and I returned it, i silently cried into his shoulder. Bruce came and rested his hand on my shoulder.

From behind us we herd laughing, we turned around to see thanos almost standing. Carol Danvers went over to him, grabbed the gauntlet and pushed him back down using her super strength. Then tony grunted and we all snapped back to him.

"Ugh m-my head" he lifted a hand to his forehead. He tried to sit up. But we gently pushed him back down "stay down tony you have a concussion" Clint told him but tony resisted "I know, I had a concussion before. Where's Cap?" He looked into my eyes "Nat? Where is he?" He looked to his right and saw caps lifeless body "is he?" Tony gulped Clint nodded.

Tony instantly stood up and went to thanos.

He raised his hands and fired.

Tony's POV

I was two meters away from him and I fired a light beam. "That's not going to stop me stark"

"I know but it feels damn good to try" I looked him straight in the eyes "tell me how to get everyone back. Now."

"You can't. Their all in the stone" he slightly chuckled

"Stone? Which stone?" I questioned

He just laughed in response. So, I marched over to miss marvel. "Is it safe to use?" I gestured to the gauntlet.

"I don't know" she responded

"Alright. I'll have to risk it then" I took the gauntlet and placed it on my armour hand.

It was much to big for me so I had to use the other hand to help prop it up. Suddenly I felt an overpowering surge of energy flow through me. I then walked over to thanos and held the gauntlet to his face. "What. Stone.?"

"You'll have to figure it out"

After that we had a sort of stare off. Finally I looked away and turned to the avengers. When I looked back, thanos lurched for the gauntlet, before he could reach it I activated the power stone he froze and started to crack with purple glowing openings. He screamed. Then after a burst of violet light he was gone.

"Holy shit" I herd Scott say. I took to gauntlet off and threw it away. Even when the gauntlet was over the suit I could feel my hand had been damaged by the strength of the stones.

"He said they were in one of the stones" I told them. I looked over to Nat who was sitting next to Cap. Just then I got an idea. "Who here knows the most about the time stone?" They all looked at me in confusion. "What if we could reverse cap's state. Bring him back" I explained. Natasha stood up "that could work. Would you wear the gauntlet again?" She asked me. I gave an unsure look, then I tapped my chest and the suit was gone. I looked to my right arm, it looked burnt almost.

"Ok that answers my question" Nat said. Okoye came over to me and took my arm.

"It just looks like burns, we should be able to fix it back at wakanda" she examined

"Well who else can wear the gauntlet?" I asked "if bringing Steve back means losing my arm then I'll do it"

"I'll wear it" I looked to the back of our small crowd. Everyone moved out of the way to reveal Loki "I've held the space stone in my bare hands, I should be able to wield it" he explained

"It's an idea" Thor said

Loki looked to Natasha, she looked at him back and nodded. Loki took the gauntlet and placed it on his hand. We all stood back, he stepped closer to Steve's lifeless body. Loki bent his fingers down a bit and turned his hand as if he was turning an invisible door knob. The time stone lit up and a green ring came around his wrist. Steve was lifted off the ground. Loki kept turning the invisible door knob, trying to focus with the beads of sweat coming down his face. Then something changed. The purple cracks started to reverse. Once they were all gone Loki places him down, deactivates the time stone and gave a big sigh.

Nat and I slowly walked closer to Cap. He was not breathing. Then his eyes opened, I was startled when he gasped for air.

We all rushed to him. "Steve are you ok?" Nat said

He grunted "what happened?"

"You died" Vision simply answered

"What?" Cap asked

"Thanos knocked us back and killed you" I explained

"How am I alive then?" He raised an eyebrow

"We used the time stone" Thor told him

" I used the time stone" Loki stepped forward.

"Well thank you... but where's thanos?" Cap asked

"He's gone...for good" miss marvel said.

"Is everyone back?" Cap stood up

"No, but we know they're in a stone, we just have to figure out which one" rocket told Cap.

"The soul stone" Loki said out of know where

"What?" Nebula asked

"They're in the soul stone" Loki cleared

"And how would you know that?" Clint stepped in front of him

"Well, Barton, the soul stone can hold souls, it can absorb them. So maybe when thanos killed everyone after he got the stone all their souls went to the stone and their body's diminished"

"That actually makes sense" Carol said.

"Alright lets give it a try" I agreed
