"When Does It End" (Maria Hill/GipReader)

Ch.39

Tony looks at Thor who as been really hard on himself, he thinks that this is all his fault when it really isn't ''What's wrong with him?'' Tony asks 

''Oh, he's pissed. He thinks he failed. Which of course he did, but you know there's a lot of that's going around, ain't there?'' Rocket says 

''Honestly, until this exact second, I literaly thought you were a Build-A-Bear.'' Tony says to Rocket 

''Maybe I am.'' Rocket says back

'' We've been hunting Thanos for three weeks now. Deep Space scans, and satellites, and we got nothing. Tony, you fought him.'' Steve says 

''Who told you that?'' he says suprised ''I didn't fight him. No, he wiped my face with a planet while the Bleecker Street Magician gave away the store. That's what happened. There was no fight.'' Tony says 

''OK'' Steve quickly says but Tony doesn't stop talking 

''He's unbeatable.'' Tony says 

''Did he give you any clues, any coordinates, anything?'' Steve says 

''Pfft! I saw this coming a few years back. I had a vision. I didn't wanna believe it. Thought I was dreaming.'' Tony says 

''Tony, I'm gonna need you to focus.'' Steve says 

''And I needed you. As in past tense. That trumps what you need. It's too late buddy. Sorry. You know what I need?'' Tony stands, pushing things off the table with a clatter. Everyone winces at the noise. '' I need to shave. And I believe I remember telling all youse -'' Tony takes his iv 

''Tony Tony Tony'' i say trying to stop him

''Alive and otherwise what we needed was a suit of armor around the world! Remember that? Whether it impacted our precious freedoms or not- that's what we needed!'' he says screaming at our faces 

''Well, that didn't work out, did it?'' Steve says

'' I said, 'we'd lose'. You said, 'We'll do that together too.' And guess what, Cap? We lost. And you weren't there. But that's what we do, right? Our best work after the fact? We're the Avengers, we're the Avengers. Not the Prevengers.'' Tony says while i grab him stoping him from falling 

''Okay, you made your point just sit down''  i say to Tony psuhing him to his weelchair but he doesn't sit 

''Nah, nah. Here's my point. You know what?'' Tony says making me clench my jaw in frustration

''Tony, you're sick.'' i say to him

''She's great, by the way.'' Tony says escaping my grip, Carol looks like she doesn't know what to say

'' We need you. You're new blood. Bunch of tired old mules!'' Tony walks right up to Steve's face, his voice hushing down to a venomous whisper ''I got nothing for you, Cap! I got no coordinates, no clues, no strategies, no options. Zero. Zip. Nada. No trust. Liar.'' Steve looks affected by Tony's words. The old friends just gaze at each other. After a moment, Tony rips his Arc Reactor from his chest and shoves it into Steve's hand, Tony hasn't really forgave Steve for not telling him about Bucky killing Howard '' Here, take this. You find him, and you put that on. You hide.'' Tony says before falling to the ground making every one gader around him 

''Tony'' i quickly say worried for him 

''I'm fine...i'' he then passes out.
