"Bruce gave him a sedative. He's gonna probably be out for the rest of the day."

"Avery said she's gonna call Happy to bring the kids over when he starts waking up. Hopefully seeing them will help keep him calm."

Rhodey and I told Steve, Natasha, and Carol, all of us standing outside Tony's med room while Bruce and Avery stayed with him.

"You guys take care of him, and I'll bring him a Xorrian elixir when I come back." The space captain said, starting to walk out of the room.

"Where are you going?" Steve asked.

"To kill Thanos."

Steve, Nat, and I gave each other a look before quickly following the blond through the compound.

"Hey. You know we usually work as a team here, and uh, between you and I, morale's a little fragile." Natasha stopped the woman.

"We realize up there is more your territory, but this is our fight too." Steve continued.

"You even know where he is?" Rhodey then asked, crossing his arms and leaning on the doorway behind us.

"I know people who might."

"Don't bother." Nebula, the woman on the ship with Tony, voice sounded behind us, gaining our attention. "I can tell you where Thanos is."

I looked back at Steve before moving forward, leading the others behind me back into the conference room we were just in not an hour before.

"Tell us what you know, Blue."

"Thanos spent a long time trying to perfect me. And when he worked, he talked about his Great Plan. Even disassembled, I wanted to please him. I'd ask, "Where would we go once his plan was complete?" And his answer was always the same. "To the Garden."

"That's cute. Thanos has a retirement plan." Rhodey snarked, making me slap his shoulder.

"So where is he?" Steve asked, moving to stand beside Nat, across the table from Nebula.

"When Thanos snapped his fingers," Rocket started, standing on the table and pulling up a projection of Earth. "Earth became ground zero for a power surge of ridiculously cosmic proportions. No one's ever seen anything like it. Until two days ago, on this planet." The raccoon pulled up an image of another planet.

"Thanos is there," Nebula confirmed.

"He used the stones again." Nat leaned forward on the table.

"Hey, hey, hey." Bruce nervously chuckled behind us. "We'd be going in shorthanded, you know?"

"Look, he's still got the stones, so-"

"So let's get 'em." Danvers cut Rhodey off. "Use them to bring everyone back."

"Just like that?" Bruce asked.

"Yeah. Just like that." I slowly nodded my head, my eyes never leaving the strange planet's projection on the table in front of me.

"Even if there's a small chance that we can undo this, I mean we owe it to everyone who's not in this room to try," Nat said, looking around the room.

"If we do this, how do we know it's gonna end any differently than it did before?" Banner asked.

"Because before you didn't have me." Marvel confidently stated.

"Hey, new girl? Everybody in this room is about that superhero life. And if you don't mind my asking, where the hell have you been all this time?"
