Maddie texts everyone and tells them to meet at Tomorrowland. I lay Tony back on the floor in his suit and lay on my back. I close my eyes and imagine of somewhere else. Somewhere different.
I hear Jay talking in the distant so I sit back up. I run my eyes and they take a bit to adjust to the light. Everyone says their goodbyes to Tony and his taken away by a few paramedics.
Steve tells us that his booked a hotel for us. We are all paired up and each have our own apartment complex.
I'm partnered up with Nat. She runs down to the corner shops to grab some subway, my favourite take away. While she's gone I just cry in bed.
We had dinner just the two of us. It was quiet. I wouldn't call it relaxing since one of the most important members of our team just died, but it was calming.
After dinner I clean up. I hear a know on the door, I open it to find Erika. "Hey I just wanted to come and check up on you" she says as she pulls me into a hug.
I hug her back. "Yeah I'm fine. Just quite tired".
Alright. Well Alice has my dinner so I'll talk to you later". I wish her goodbye and shut the door.
Nat claims she's going to sleep, but I know she's messaging Steve. I scroll through instagram and tiktok. My comment sections are flooded with messages about Tony and people wishing us the best even though my last posts were Jay and Pietro when they stole my phone on the bus this morning.
Then I remember that some of my last words to Tony was me bickering to him about nonsense. Only if I used that time better. Now I can never make up the time we lost ever again.
Everywhere, the news, tiktok, snapchat, google. Everywhere has his death at the top. I tear up every time I see it.
I sigh and open the camera app, video, record. I blink back tears. "Hello. I just wanted to address the current situation about Tony Stark" I say as I swallow. The lump in my throat is getting larger the minute.
"Tony Stark is dead. He died at around 3pm today. I'm not going to name his cause of death until the rest of the team are comfortable about me telling the world" I hear someone open my bedroom door and look back, it's Nat.
She sits beside me on my bed. "We are all going to miss him, very much. It was a really big shock and if we are being completely honest, we didn't see it coming at all" she says.
Lava tears start rolling down my cheek. They only happen when I'm actually sad or mad. In this case I'm both. I want to go to the reality Bruce came from and destroy it, start another apocalypse there. But for now I need to focus on helping the rest of the team, even though I'm probably one of the few who are crying the most.
Nat quickly stops recording, seeing that I'm on the urge from crying a river. She grabs me and I lay in her arms for a bit while crying. I eventually pull back and she says goodnight then heads to her bedroom.
I upload the video to my tiktok and instagram. It grabs attention quite quickly and makes the top of the news. Maddie, Pietro, Jay, Mara and Ariba have already commented on both of the posts but I'm crying to much to see what they said.
Before I put my phone on charge, I post a video to my instagram story. It's me in one of Tony's test suits. I'm laughing while his instructing me what to do. I fly in the air and crash into one of the walls, we both laugh hysterically.
And that, that video is the last video of Anthony Stark I'll ever have.
