Alive but can't live (Saved but not save sequel)

10. Ain't over 'till it's over

Tony pov:
I heared a lot of screamingand yelling later that night.
I ran out of bed and saw that guy again, he had Grace, Quill and even Cap.
"Tony!" Grace yelled and that guy looked at me.
"Good luck defeating me on your own, boy without powers."
He left and Itried to go after him but it was no use.
I gritted my teeth and punched the door so hard that my hand started to bleed.
I have no idea what to do, I was on my own. That guy was still out there and hehad Grace (and Quill and Cap).
I looked up.
'Boy without powers'
That was it!
I ran downsaurs, all the equipment was still there and I swallowed.
"For them... For Grace." I said softly and I made everything ready.
I was a bit scared though because I had to do this alone so I created a littleremote so I could turn it on and off while it was still working... If it wouldwork...
I took my place in the machine and I turned it on.
"Please work..." I muttered as I felt the formula streaming through my vains.
It was painfull and I might've screamed a bit.

I slowly opend my eyes again, the machine was turned off.
"I am groot...?" Groot said and I looked up.
"Groot! Rocket!"
"That guy has to put more effort in it if he was to capture us, we had tokeep a low profile though... That's why wejust showed up instead of earlier..." Rocket said.
"He's got Grace, Quill and Cap. We need to help and stop them."
"I am Groot." Groot said and I looked at him.
"Mantiss and DRax are still alive too? That's good to know..."
"The others are gone, I'm sorry." Rocket said and I looked at him.
"It's okay, I knew that my dad was gone... I saw him die..."
"Yikes."
"I am Groot." Groot said and I smiled a little.
"Thanks Groot." I said and Rocket looked at me.
"what were you doing in that thing anyways? And why do you look bigger?"
"Bigger?" then I realised it must've worked.
I looked at the wall and I acctually shot fire out of my hand.
"It worked... Grace is a genius!" I said and Rocket grinned.
"Okay but shouldn't we go save our friends?"
"I am groot!"
"Yea, what he said!" I said and the three of us got all the supplies we neededand we left.

Grace pov:
So all of us were tied up, Drax and Mantis were here too.
My dad seemed glad to see that they were still alive but he was also a bitworried about what would happen next.
"Tony will come for us." I said.
"That kid's a nobody. He won't come. That would be suicide for him." Drax said.
"He will come, I'm sure of it..." I said softly.
"Dream all you want Grace, he's not coming." my dad said.
"He texted you a lot. You didn't came either so yea, Mabey he won't come!" Isaid with a bit anger.
My dad sighed and Mantiss looked up.
"Steve, are you okay?"
"I'm getting too old for this..." he muttered.
"Like 80 years too old?" I said.
"He's older then 80 right?" Drax said.
"I'm 105..." Cap said.
"See, 25 would be better for fighting, just a bit quick calculating."
"STOP TALKING!" mr. badguy yelled and I swalowed.
"Please hurry Tony..." I whispered.
I was scared but could you blame me? We were tied up, Tony was on his own andhe yet he was the only one who could help us.
I felt a tear over my cheek and my dad looked at me.
"Mabey you're right. Perhaps he'd come... for you." he whispered and I looked athim.
I knew exactly what he meant.
But did Tony knew that I liked him or... I sighed and hoped that he'd come soon if he'd come at all.

That guycame back and grabbed me by my arm.
"You're coming with me." He said.
"Let go of her!" My dad yelled.
"Now you want to fulfil your task as father huh. A bit too late."
"Let go of me!" I yelled but he took me along anyways, obviously.

He tied me up on a chair and grinned.
"Your little boyfriend will be here soon. Too bad you can't use your powers huh? Don't worry. You'll die first, he's going to see how you die!"
I swallowed.
"He's not my boyfriend."
"Yea right."
Okay I wanted him to be but he wasn't. End of discussion.
I sighed and got pretty scared.
