Leah's POV

"All right. We have a plan. Six Stones, three teams. One shot."Steve said and we all walk up and look at the screens determinedly.We were walking in a file to the Quantum Time machine, wearing the Quantum Suits, albeit with some minor differences for different people. Rhodey has a bulkier repaint of the War machine armour."Five years ago, we lost. All of us. We lost friends... We lost family... We lost a part of ourselves. Today, we have a chance to take it all back. You know your teams, you know your missions. Get the stones, get them back. One round trip each. No mistakes. No do-overs. Most of us are going somewhere we know. But it doesn't mean we should know what to expect. Be careful. Look out for each other. This is the fight of our lives. And we're gonna win."Steve said and looked at my dad"Whatever it takes. Good luck."Steve said"He's pretty good at that."Rocket said"Right?"Scott asked"All right. You heard the man. Stroke those keys, jolly green."Dad said"Tractors engaged."Bruce said.Rocket just gave me a little ship and looked at me"You promise to bring that back in one piece, right?"He asked me"Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Okay. I'll do my best."I said and smiled at him"As promises go, that was pretty lame."Rocket said and i giggled"See you in a minute."Natasha said while smiling at Steve.We all shrink and enter the Quantum Realm, and we all split at different intervals, going to a different place at a different time in history.Me and Natasha were waiting for Rhodey and Nebula to get out of the ship"Alright. Bring it down low. Right on that line.That's it. Down, down."Rhodey said"Hey, can we hurry it up?"I asked"Guys, chop-chop. Come on. We're on a clock."Natasha said and Nebula walks out of the ship, apparently having directed it to its next destination."All that, is really helpful."Rhodey said and he hugged Natasha and then he hugged me."Take that stone and come back. No messing around."Rhodey said"Hey.You got this."I said"Let's get it done. Yes,Miss."Rhodey said and i just smiled and me and Natasha went into the ship"See you back."I said"You guys watch each other's six."Rhodey said"Yeah."I said we walk back into the ship, and the hatch closes. The ship takes off and speeds out of the atmosphere of Morag.In the Benatar, me and Nat are sitting at the front of the ship. The ship takes a jump through space and speeds up tremendously. 

Nat and me look at each other."It's a long way from Mcdonalds".I said and Natasha just laughs.When me and Natasha arrive"Wow– Under different circumstances, this would be totally awesome."I said and we starts walking towards the mountain and climb it."I bet the raccoon didn't have to climb a mountain."Natasha said"Technically, he's not a raccoon, you know."I said"Whatever. He eats garbage"Natasha said and i just rolled my eye's"Welcome."Some red flouting guy said and Natasha draws her weapon.And i started to do some magic"Natasha, daughter of Ivan.Leah, daughter of Tony"The red floating guy said"Who are you?"Natasha asked"Consider me a guide. To you, and to all who seek the Soul Stone."The guy said"Oh, good. You tell us where it is. Then we'll be on our way."Natasha said"Ah, liebchen– If only it were that easy."He said and he leads me and Natasha to the cliff"What you seek lies in front of you... as does what you fear."The guy said"The stone is down there."Natasha said"For one of you. For the other... In order to take the stone, you must lose that which you love. An everlasting exchange. A soul, for a soul."The guy said and then Natasha sitting on a log while i watch the Stonekeeper"How's it going? Jesus...Maybe he's making this shit up."I said"No. I don't think so."Natasha said"Why, 'cause he knows your Daddy's name?"I asked her"I didn't...Thanos left here with the stone without his daughter. It's not a coincidence"Natasha said"Yeah."I said"Whatever it takes."Natasha said"Whatever it takes."I said and Natasha stands up"If we don't get that stone, billions of people stay dead."Natasha said"Then I guess we both know who it's gotta be."I said"I guess we do."Natasha said and i held Natasha's hand and she reciprocates and we look at each other"I'm starting to think– we mean different people here, Natasha."I said"For the last five years I've been trying to do one thing: Get to right here.That's all it's been about. Bringing everybody back."Natasha said"Don't just don't.Don't you get all decent on me now. You are pregnant...You have Steve"I said"What, you think I wanna do it? I'm trying to save your life, you idiot."She asked me"Yeah, well, I don't want you to, because I– Natasha, you know what I've done."I said"I don't judge people on their worst mistakes."Natasha said"Maybe you should."I said. I just looked at her"I deserve this...I want to die"I said"Leah please.You are young.You still have your whole life infront of you."She said and she put her hand on my cheek"You're a pain in my ass, you know that?"I told her with tears both me and Natasha lean their heads against each other. I knock Natasha to the ground but being careful of the baby"Tell my family I love them."I told her and Natasha returns the favor by tackling me to the ground"You tell them yourself."Natasha told me and Natasha electrocutes me and she runs towards the cliff. I get up and make an explosive knocking her down.I then runs towards the cliff and jump. Natasha jumps after me and hooks me up to a grappling hook"Damn you!"I told her with tears"Let me go."She said and i shock my head"No. Please, no.Nat you are the only one i have left...I can't lose you too."I choked out"It's okay."Natasha whispered and i just shock my head"Please–"I cried out and Natasha kicks the wall, falls off the rope, and plummets to the ground."NO!!!"I screamed.As i looked down i saw her body on the ground, dead. A boom in the sky sends me in a pool of water with the Soul Stone in my hand.I hit the ground out of sadness and i tried to bring her back with my magic but i couldn't.I just took a deep breath"I am soon gonna be with you"I choked out and pushed the bottom and then i saw everyone on the platform"Did we get them all?"Bruce asked"You telling me this actually worked?"Rhodey asked.There's a pause as everyone starts to realise Nat is missing"Leah, where's Nat?"Steve asked and the silence from me tells them all they need to know.The mission was completed but at a dire cost. Sadness overtakes everyone.Steve falls to his knees and pounds the floor in grief.

After that outside HQ. Lakeside,Dad , Steve, Thor, Clint,Me and Bruce are mourning our fallen teammate and friend"Do we know if she had family?"Dad asked"Yeah. Us."Steve said"What?"Thor asked"I just asked him a question–"Dad said"Yeah, you're acting like she's dead. Why are we acting like she's dead? We have the stones, right? As long as we have the stones, Cap, we can bring her back, isn't that right?"Thor said and he started growling"So stop this shit. We're the Avengers, get it together."Thor said"We can't get her back."I said with a broken voice"Wha– what?"Thor asked"It can't be undone. It can't."I said Thor dryly laughs"I'm sorry. No offense, but you're a very earthly being. Okay? We're talking about space magic. And "can't" seems very definitive don't you think?"Thor said"I tried it if you didn't know.I tried to use my magic to bring her back.I really did.But she still isn't here, is she?"I said and i looked at dad and he was looking down sad"No, that's my point–"Thor said"It can't– be undone. Or that's at least what the red floating guy had to say."I said and i started to shouts"Maybe you wanna go talk to him, okay? GO GRAB YOUR HAMMER, AND YOU GO FLY AND TALK TO HIM!"I screamed my anger is quickly replaced with grief"It was suppose to be me.She sacrificed her life for that goddamn stone.She bet her life on it.It's because of me.Everything is because of me"I cried out

In a burst of anger, Bruce grabs a bench and hurls it clear across the lake. His anger spent, he turns to the others with a resigned look on his face"She's not coming back. We have to make it worth it. We have to."Bruce said"We will."Steve said and everyone left apart from Steve.I just came up to him"Steve i am so sorry.I tired so hard to save her but she still did it.I tried to do it but Nat stopped me. I didn't want you to go through this alone.Please forgive me"I sobbed out and Steve stood up and looked down at me"Don't apologize i know how stubborned Natasha is when she wants to be"He said and he hugged me and i cried on his shoulder"We are gonna make it worth it"Steve told me and then after that me and Steve went back inside"All right. The glove's ready. Question is, who's gonna snap their freaking fingers?"Rocket asked"I'll do it."Thor said and i just looked down as i was in my mind just thinking about Natasha and i just closed my eye's and saw Natasha's face"Good to go, yeah?"Dad asked and i just drawned my thoughts out"Let's do it."Bruce said"You remember– everyone Thanos snapped away five years ago and just bringing them back to now, today. Don't change anything from the last five years."Dad said"Got it."Bruce said and we all gets ready and suits up"F.R.I.D.A.Y., do me a favor and activate Barn Door Protocol. Will you?"Dad said"Yes, boss."F.R.I.D.A.Y. said and the Avengers facility goes on lockdown"Everybody comes home."Bruce said and puts on the gauntlet, which nanobotically expands to fit his hand, and the power surge overwhelms him. He grunts in pain."Take it off! Take it off!"Thor shouted"No, wait. Bruce, are you okay?"I asked"Talk to me, Banner."Dad said"I'm okay. I'm okay."Bruce said.Bruce screams, fighting through the intense pain coursing through his body courtesy of the gauntlet, and manages to snap his fingers. He faints and the gauntlet slides off his arm, Clint kicks it away"Bruce!"Steve shouted"Don't move him."Dad said and Bruce holds onto Steve's arm"Did it work?"Bruce asked"Worth a shot. It's over. It's okay."Thor said.Scott walks towards the outside windows and sees plants and birds. Clint hears his phone ringing and sees it's his wife calling"Guys– I think it worked!"Scott said and then a continuous array of missiles destroys the base completely and everyone sinks below to the underground."Come on, sweetheart. Wake up. That's my girl."I heard my dad's voice as i started to wake up"What happened?"I asked"You messed with time. It tends to mess back. You'll see."Dad said
