What Heroes Do -- [Male Reader x Wanda Maximoff]

Book 2: Chapter #3

The team was assembled on the quinjet with their weapons and suits at the ready, they flew into Wakandan airspace with express permission from T'challa, as they landed at one of the helipads, the air-stair opened to reveal the Dora Milaje waiting alongside King T'Challa and family. The Avengers walked off the Jet with Y/N trailing behind by a few moments, as he stepped off the jet with his rifle magnetised on his back and his pistol on his thigh, one of the Dora Milaje stopped him with their spear using it to block his path.

"Hand your weapons over." She said as Y/N looked over to see the Avengers were all armed.

"No offence king T'Challa, but I would recommend your bodyguard lets him past, or else he might just shove her own spear up her own ass." Clint said as they saw the standoff between  Y/N and the Dora Milaje member.

"Stand down, as much as we would all enjoy seeing a fight between a member of the Dora Milaje and an Avenger, we don't have the time, let him through." T'Challa said as Y/N walked past to royal guard. He followed the team into a room with a war table T'Challa brought up a hologram showing the ship in the orbit above Wakanda. "It's been orbiting for hours now, we havn't received anything from them yet."

"What do we know about the invasion force?" Y/N asked as he analysed everything given to him. FRIDAY was giving him her own analysis of the situation.

"We know that they have three capital ships, each the size of the one that Stark destroyed in The Battle of New York. They're likely better equipped as well." T'Challa said as Y/N heard FRIDAY begin with her status report.

"The Chitauri are gathering a fleet, those three ships are just the beginning, I picked up radio chatter that where they mention at least six more ships. By my estimate they're each carrying twice the number of hostiles that were involved in the Battle for New York." FRIDAY answered as Y/N glanced over to Wanda and Natasha.

The team was calm as they came up with a plan. They would attack the main capital ship and destroy it, then the next, and then anymore they could. Their basic plan was to take the fight to the Chitauri.

The Wakandans upgraded the quinjet and the team set off with the plan. The plan was going smoothly, they had taken down two capital ships and were breezing through the third, but is all seemed too easy, they had planted the bomb on the ships core and were heading for the quinjet when they saw it had been destroyed. That was when they realized to little too late, it was a trap. A portal opened and a 7.9 ft tall Chitauri commander stepped through alongside Thanos, who was wielding a golden gauntlet with five stones in it, he looked to Wanda and ordered a focus on her, the chitauri commander went for Wanda only to be stopped by Y/N tackling him, but Y/N was no match for the commander, they picked Y/N up and threw him down the corridor. The team had 2 minutes to escape the blast zone.

"Escape pods, the blast will kill them anyway." Stark said and the team all ran for the pods with Y/N about to meet up with them, he was about to jump into a pod when Thanos threw Wanda's limp unconscious body in the pods and with a smile and pressed the release, sending the pods away, and leaving Y/N on the ship about to be killed by Thanos. The Chitauri Commander carried Y/N to the hanger bay where the portal was Y/N knocked the commander to the floor and rushed at Thanos grabbing hold of the gauntlet by the knuckles before Thanos in a fit of rage, picked Y/N up by the throat and threw him out of the hangar bay doors and into space, he snapped his fingers.

As Sal'Loeb arrived back at the Sanctuary 2 with Thanos, he realised that there was no other Chirtauri warriors, it was mostly just Chitauri golemns and such. That was when he realized, his species hadn't been spared.

"You lied. You wiped out my species!" Sal'Loeb said as Thanos looked at him. With a flick of his wrist Sal'Loeb was thrown into an escape pod and fired into deep space.

"I told them that they would be judged, they were not worthy, they sacrificed themselves to save the universe." Thanos said coldly and dispassionately.

Pietro watched as Wanda and himself turned to dust in front of the team.

The Avengers plummeted to earth and realised it wasn't just Pietro, it was 50% of all life in the universe, gone in the blink of an eye.

Y/N was floating in space, his armour being the only thing that was keeping him alive as he slowly floated towards earth.
