With the villain defeated, Thor, Hawkeye, Natasha Romanoff, and Bruce Banner rushed to Tony Stark and Steve Rogers' side. They were horrified to see that the two Avengers had been turned into red slime, their screams sending shivers down their spines.

"We've got to do something!" Bruce exclaimed, looking at his friends with concern.

Thor, using his lightning powers, zapped the red slime, hoping to reverse the effects. However, it only seemed to worsen their condition as they both cried out in agony.

Hawkeye and Natasha quickly contacted the Avengers' medical team, who arrived at the scene promptly. They were shocked at the sight before them but wasted no time. With the help of advanced technology, they worked tirelessly to save Tony and Steve's lives.

After several tense moments, the medical team finally succeeded in stabilizing their condition and bringing them back to their human forms. Tony and Steve were weak but alive, still shaken by their terrifying ordeal.

The Avengers breathed a collective sigh of relief and gathered around their friends. They knew that they had been lucky this time, and they pledged to watch each other's backs, no matter what danger they faced.
