Here I am again everyone. In the next chapter or after we will see how Tobey found out he and Peter are half-brothers but I will tell you all if you would like to know so warning spoiler alert. When Tobey rescued Peter and Sylva and brought them to their safe haven, he had doctors doing medical tests on Peter to heal him from his wounds and whilst they were studying his blood to make sure nothing was contaminating it, they discovered he had celestial cells similar to his own so it made him think he could be Ego's son too. Then later when they were alone, he asked Peter who his father was and then eventually he told him what he had found out and they were overjoyed.
Anyways enjoy the next chapter everyone.
Operation Stones Part One:
York 2012
Hulk, Scot, George and Steve appeared on the battle field of New York Streets, Chittari aliens soaring above them shooting with guns and cause mayhem and havoc everywhere.
"Oh blimey," George did not like they were in the middle of New York being heavily demoralised by all this mayhem. "Let's find those stones and get out of here,"
They deactivated their suits, all except George who had modified his suit to shrink like Scott's. Steve was in his Captain America uniform. Hulk was wearing pants. Scott was wearing his ant suit.
"We have our assignments. Two stones uptown, one stone down," Steve reminded. "Stay low. Keep an eye on the clock,"
"Remember what I taught you George," Scott said to him. "Just jump then smack,"
"I doubt I'm gonna need to do that," his friend answered. "This is Doctor Strange I'll be talking to,"
"Can't say for certain," Scott said carefully. "We don't know how long he's been a sorcerer so if whoever's there gives you trouble, better to be safe than sorry,"
"I can handle it," Hulk said. "Just leave the talking to me, George. Let's go," he crouched down like a gorilla. George frowned. "Get on,"
"I'm not gonna ride you,"
"Fine then I'll carry you," Hulk tried to grab him but he swerved back, feeling embarrassed.
"I don't need you to carry me. I'm a grown man,"
"Come on. Just let him carry you," Scott said.
George huffed. "Fine," Hulk scooped him up bridle-style. "Do mention this to anyone," he muttered angrily. "And remember none of you be seen by your past selves,"
Hulk launched them into the air and leapt down a couple of blocks till they saw the New York Sanctum with a special symbol on the round window. Hulk placed him down as they landed on the balcony. George instantly placed his feet back on the ground. He was about to knock on the doors when…
"I'd be careful going that way. We just had the floors waxed,"
The two men twisted their heads to see a bald-headed woman wearing yellow, wearing a talisman around her neck.
"Think we should ask her where Strange is?" Hulk asked.
"Might as well," George approached her carefully. "Listen mam…we don't want any trouble. We're looking for Doctor Strange,"
"You're about five years too early," The Ancient One answered; they blinked. She knew they were from the future. "Stephen Strange is performing surgery about 20 blocks that way," she pointed east.
"How did you know…" George's question was interrupted.
"I've seen glimpses of what's to come from this time,"
"I guess you were expecting us?" Hulk asked awkwardly.
"What do you want from Strange?"
"We want…"
"Hang on," George interrupted. "If you see glimpses of what's to come, why are you asking us?"
"I can't see everything,"
'We seek the Time Stone," George pointed to her talisman. "It's inside that isn't it,"
"I'm afraid not," The Ancient One instantly refused.
"We need it," Hulk tried to explained.
"No,"
George was not in the mood for talking. "Look bald lady we can do the easy way or the hard way…"
"You really wanna do this hard way?" the Ancient One asked.
"If it means getting that stone to bring my family back then yes,"
Hulk tried to calm him down. "George…"
"I'm sorry but I can't let you," the Ancient One refused again.
"Then you leave me no choice," George activated his suit and shrunk and once. He leapt at her, tried to hit her but he slumped against her belt and fell to the ground, enlarging again.
"Really?" Hulk asked.
"That went a lot better in my head," George groaned. He stood up. "Look lady can we…" The Ancient One shot her palm right at his chest and before he knew he was falling out of his body and floating in mid-air. Hulk tried to stop her but he too was knocked spiritually out of his body.
"Let's start over shall we?" she offered.
Asgard 2013
The sun was shining brightly over Asgard. Jesse, Una, Tina and Rocket suddenly appeared in an underground chamber of stone. "Where are we?" Tina asked.
"This is the prison," Una whispered. "Now come on. Do exactly what I say and be very quiet,". Her team nodded. They deactivated their suits and started dashing past the cells, Jesse catching a glimpse of Loki tossing a cup into the air whilst lying on a shezlong. They made it out of the prison chambers and into the grand hallways of Asgard. They made their ways down the corridors but as they did, Jesse's pacing seemed to grow slow. Absorbing the details, the carvings, seemed to etch memories back into his mind long buried during his grief. The others noticed and Una got annoyed.
"Jesse come on. This is no time for daydreaming,"
Jesse focused himself again. "Sorry it's just this place…brings back some very painful memories,"
"We can't be seen," Tina hissed. "Now come on. We gonna find past you and get the Aether out,"
Following Una again, they came to another corridor but hid behind columns when they saw two royals passing by. Una pepped out and saw her parents: Lyria and Orpheus. Her tears grew wet at once seeing her father. She began crying quietly. Another pair of footsteps came from the other side of the corridor. Frigga came marching through, coming over to meet her brother and sister in laws. "I hope that Jesse is comfortable,"
"I've given him my best clothes," Orpheus said. "He really just as smart and kind and Thora described,"
"If only Odin could agree to that," Frigga said.
When Jesse saw them talking together, he began overwhelmed with shock that a memory long buried flashed in his eyes again.
"I have already lost my wife and brother because of you," Odin's cold words hurt him gravely. Jesse had never meant to find the Aether and become its carrier. He never intended to bring trouble to Asgard. But it broke his heart that the father of the woman he loved was holding him entirely responsible for the death of his wife and brother who had given their lives protection him. "If you hadn't been so nosy, the Aether wouldn't come inside you in the firstly place. Then Asgard wouldn't have had to keep you here. My wife and brother would still be alive then,"
Jesse twisted his head out of sight and slumped on the floor.
"What's with the wet faces?' Rocket asked.
"They're my parents," Una answered back softly. "My father…dies today," she chocked.
"Oh Una.." Tina clasped her shoulder; she did not push her away. "I'm so sorry,"
"Frigga dies too," Jesse sniffled. "And it will be because of me. They die because of me,"
"Jesse…that is not true," Una shook her head.
"Odin blamed for their deaths," Jesse confessed to them. "And even after he approved of me and…Thora," he didn't know how to control himself. "It always comes back to me. It always makes me remember that the woman I love, loved, lost two loved ones…because they were risking their lives to protect me,"
"You never intended it," Tina comforted. "Their deaths are not your fault,".
Rocket noticed the strange look Una was give them. Her eyes were wet though her face was full of anger. "What?"
"What we're feeling now, what Jesse is feeling now, is very much like how Peter felt when he just learnt Thanos killed the woman he loved. And like how Jesse has had to suffer the unfair blame my uncle places on him, I bet he has felt the same way for five years because you two couldn't find it in your hearts to see past your anger. Let's just get that stone and get home," she wiped her tears away quickly and scurried off away from her family's past selves, Jesse dashing after her too.
What she had just said to them, highly affected Tina, and Rocket. Had they really been wrong to blame Peter when he had never intended this to happen? When he had tried so hard to help them stop Thanos before. They shook off that guilty feeling and pursued them.
Morag 2014
On the ruined planet, Nebula, Rhodey, Natasha, Hawkeye and the wolves landed near a crater spitting out foam into the air. Carrying the ship, Tina had brought them, Hawkeye enlarged it and it was prepared to take his half of the team to Morag.
"Take care," Natasha bid giving Rhodey a hug.
"You too," he said back.
"You sure you do not want one of waiting with you?" Higa asked.
"We just have to wait for Tina and her twin to arrive. We get that stone before them and that's it we've got the power stone," he assured.
"Take care. There's no telling what dark force are in this time," Hiroto bid.
"My father, my sister, my brother, me…past me," Nebula informed.
"Be careful," Clint warned. "Good luck,"
The four entered the ship and activated the engines. They shot through space, zooming past stars and nebulas to find the planet Vormir and claim the Soul Stone, little realising what drastic outcomes would await them.
Present Day
Peter had chosen to take control over piloting the ship for a while. It provided a perfect distraction from the many tormenting thoughts and feelings clouding his mind. The teens were lying in their beds, their minds clouded with fear and dark memories. Sylva stroked the silver surface of her locket, opening it revealing two etches. Her biological parents. When she closed her eyes, all she remembered from her past were screams and fire and blood.
Leok on his bed with his tail wiggling a little had his eyes glued to his right wrist. It was marred with a brand, a scorched symbol of two diamonds with a line marking through them. It was the only clue he had of his past. He walked to a mirror and pulled off his black top and turning around, he saw faded slashes of red stretching from his right back-abb to the left side of his back. He sighed. He didn't know how or when he gained that disfigurement. Nor did his father.
"You know you don't have to hide them," Scylla perched on the seat beside him. "We all have our marks of our past," she showed him her metal hands, feet, and tail. "But that doesn't make us who we are,"
"Maybe not. But they do tell us stories," Leok leaned on the table in front of the mirror. "I still don't know anything about where I come from or why I bear them,"
"You know your father would tell you if he could,"
"I was only five when you guys found me. How can I not remember gaining this brand and this back scar? How could a five year suffer like this and still survive it?"
Scylla used her tail to touch his cheek and tilt his face to meet hers. "When we found you, you gave your father hope again. How you endured all your suffering and still survive gave him the will to live again, to keep fighting, to take a stand to form this establishment to help others in need. You were a miracle to him. He's never told you this himself but it's true,". She gave the boy a warm hug which he deeply appreciated.
"Thank you, Auntie," He wondered if perhaps one day he could call him 'Mama'.
In another part of the ship, Tobey was holding his childhood picture again, touching the faded colours of all his friends.
Eight-year-old Tobey was being hauled into a room of cages by a white suited many with a huge computer chip embedded into his head. "Get off me!" he shrieked as the cruel scientists pulled on his hair.
"You wanna see you mother again, you'll do as I say!" he growled.
Rocket, Floor, Teefs, Lylla and Scylla were peacefully sleeping in their large cages when they heard his painful screams. They shuddered when they saw such cold abusiveness. Teefs and Lylla shuffled back when the man opened their cage and he threw the young boy inside with them.
"Maybe that'll teach you some lessons," the man roared through the bars. Lylla hissed at him and he jumped back in fright.
"You leave him alone," Scylla warned from her cage with Rocket and Floor. Rocket growled and instantly the cowardly bully scurried.
Tobey was crying softly. "There. There," Teefs helped him sit up. "It's okay. We're here for you,". He allowed the poor boy to lie against him. Lylla approached him and touched his face. Blackness had swollen on his eye and a short scratch marred his lip. "It's okay. You're with us,"
"Come closer," Scylla picked up a cloth and damped it with her saliva. She reached her arms through the bars and gently dapped the little boy's lip scratch. "There. It's okay,"
"Tobey in trouble?" Floor asked.
"I'm afraid so Floor," he said. "Theel caught me messing about the place. Now they won't let mum see me,"
The animals were shocked. Rocket with his eyes balling a little, reaching one of his furry hands and Tobey gladly accepted warmth of his fur. "It won't be so bad in here with your guys. Bit squeezy but…there's no place better than with you guys,". The young boy was no longer crying. He was full of love and joy again. Sitting closer to the bars that separated the two cages, he felt touched and warmed by everyone around him. He hugged Rocket and Floor's faces, felt Teefs's flippers tickling him and Scylla and Lylla's robotic arms were still the sweetest hands that could ever stroke his hair.
"Such an adorable little cub," cooed Scylla.
More tears fell onto Tobey's picture. "What should I do guys?" he wondered. "What should I do?"
"Tobes!" called the voice of his brother. "Tobes!" Tobey dashed to front to join his brother. So did the children and Scylla. "We've made it,". Ahead of them they saw a simple blue planet.
"Hornil, are you making sense of this?" Tobey called through the coms.
"The GPS trackers aren't detecting anything accept a small green island," the space fox called through.
"Cap, permission to scout the planet first for any dangers?" Erzi requested.
"Request authorised," Tobey called back through. "Be careful,". He watched his oldest friend's ship rotate around the planet with Colin watching them. The fathers stood up.
"Scylla have you seen anything more about this place with what we have?" Peter asked.
"I have," she said. "It seems there is a guardian who guards the temple of the Light where the stone is supposed to located,"
"Any mention of who this guardian is?" Sylva asked.
"It appears the Guardian is a Dragokren. His name is Reiorus and apparently he's existed for millions of years,"
"Mmm…sounds a very old dragon guy we'll be dealing with," Leok said.
"We must underestimate him," his uncle said carefully.
Tobey pressed a com to the third ship of the troop. "Phateia…" he called.
On the third ship, a female blue Dragokren with a long scaley body, a long tail, and dreadlocks instead of a mane heard her captain call. "Go ahead cap,"
"It appears we'll be dealing with a millennium old Dragokren on this new planet. If he causes us any trouble, we will need your aid to handle him should that be the case,"
"You got it cap. I fear though he will be a powerful foe to dealt with. Very few of my kind have lived for as long as the universe has existed and there's no telling what he might do. But if I might request, allow me to talk to him should he refuse us the stone,"
"Agreed," Tobes called back.
Erzi and Hornil arrived back with their ship and crew mates and Colin. "No means of defences cap," Erzi reported. "Only a small island with a temple. We mustn't be fooled by its looks,"
"I can vouch for that," Tobey agreed. "Colin! Approach the windshield,"
Colin floated in front of it. "You're gonna keep watch and make sure no certain enemies approach us. Ship four, you will be helping him,"
"Any good reason I am not allowed to accompany you guys to the stone?" the cosmic fighter demanded.
"Because I don't trust you one bit around my brother," Tobey answered. "Ships two and three, with us now. We'll going in,". The three ships descended to the blue planet leaving the fourth ship and Colin to keep watch for any likely dangers that might have been hunting them across the galaxy.
York 2012
Back in the past, in York, things were not going well between George, the Hulk and the Ancient. The astral projections of the time travellers chased after her.
"Please will you just listen?" Hulk begged.
"I'm sorry I can't help you, Bruce Banner and George Pym," the Ancient One apologised trying to walk away. "If I give up the Time Stone to help your reality, I'm dooming my own,"
"You don't understand we need that stone to bring trillions of people back," George begged her but she would not listen.
"With all due respect, I'm not sure the science really supports that," Bruce blocked her.
She stopped walking and before their eyes, drew a line of energy that seemed stretch so far from left to right, right to left. "The Infinity Stones create what you experience as the flow of time," the infinity gems rotated around the line. "Remove one of the stones," she plucked the green stone away and a black line seemed to drawn away from the golden reality one. "And that flow splits. This may benefit your reality, but my new reality not so much. In this new branch reality, without our chief weapon against the forces of darkness our world would be overrun, millions would suffer,"
"Wait a minute," George looked for a white gem but it wasn't there. "Where's the Light Stone?"
"The what?" The Ancient One repeated.
"The Light Stone. The seventh infinity stone. You don't know what it is?"
"There is no knowledge of a seventh infinity stone,". If this was true, then it meant the stone was a fake and the Nameless Order was lying or perhaps…
"Listen," he begged. "In our future, there are a group of space people searching for a white stone, a stone that they say could undo everything that Thanos used to wipe out half of all existence. It's never been mentioned before it was hidden away. All knowledge that your people could have access to about it was hidden away for a reason. Maybe because this tone is more powerful than either of them,' Bruce sensed he was beginning to make sense of something. "Perhaps it has the capacity to allow us to change the future and allow all realities to remain undamaged,"
"That is not a risk worth doing. Now tell me doctor, can your science prevent all that?
"No," Hulk answered. "But once we've used the Light Stone to help the other stones bring everyone back, we can erase it by returning each one to its own timeline in exactly the right moments," he placed the time stone back in place and instantly the split reality merged back with the golden line of the proper reality. "That's it. It never left,"
"Please," George implored again. "Because of Thanos's victory, people have suffered so much loss. We have suffered. I have suffered. And I didn't even get a chance to say goodbye to my family,"
The Ancient One felt sorry for him. "Look George Pym, I am sorry for your loss. But in order to return the stones you have to survive,"
"We will survive. We promise you that," Hulk assured her.
"I can't risk this reality on a promise. It's the duty of the Sorcerer Supreme to protect the Time Stone,"
The two men struggled to think of another way to convince when Hulk remembered something. "Then why the hell did Strange give it away?"
The Ancient One was not expecting that answer. "What?"
George realised what Hulk was talking about. He remembered how the Avengers discussed with them about how Thanos had succeeded in his goal. "Strange gave Thanos the Time Stone. He said there was only one path to victory. A path that has led us here to this very moment. It is the only way Thanos loses and half the universe can be brought back. He foretold that we would be having this conversation right now. He knew that in order for us to win, he'd have to give up the stone so that we could come here and bring everyone back. Please Sorcerers Supreme…otherwise he and everyone else who we lost, died for nothing,"
The wise woman remained conflicted. "He was meant to be the best of us. Perhaps I made a mistake,"
"Perhaps he did it for a reason," Hulk reasoned.
The Ancient One slowly raised her hand and swished her wrist, bring the men's bodies back to them. She opened the amulet revealing the green gem, offering it to them. "I'm counting on you Bruce and George. We all are,"
"Thank you," George held it tightly in his hands. "We won't let you down. I promise,"
