Endgame 1
Thor stared at the hammer, gold lining the cracks from where Hela had destroyed it. Hesitantly, he held out his hand, the Hammer flew towards him, only to lose momentum and fall to the floor. Marinette silently sighed, she was worried this would happen, although Thor had stopped his more self-destructive habits, his own thoughts and self-hatred was something that she couldn't help with.
Marinette grabbed Mjolnir and slung it into her bag. Plagg flew out and looked at the group.
"So, I take it that the others couldn't join us?" Plagg questioned, looking around for the Kwami.
"Wayzz and Trixx were lost in the snap." Said Alya, "And Pollen barely leaves Chloe's purse."
"We think Hawkmoth was dusted as well," Said Nino, settling himself down in a chair, "there haven't been any Akuma attacks since the snap happened."
Thor was quiet, before he leaned back.
"Gabriel married Nathalie." Said Chloe, taking Pollen out of her purse and setting her on her shoulder, "so that's at least one good thing."
Adrien quietly snorted, Marinette throwing him a dirty look.
"We don't know about the Guardian, since only you two knew who he was." Said Chloe, ignoring the snort and the look.
"His name wasn't on any of the monuments," Said Marinette, "So we know he survived the snap itself. I'm going to visit his parlour, see if he's still there."
Adrien started walking around, tidying up any mess from the gap.

Marinette stopped in front of Fu's parlour. From the outside, it looked as it had been shut down, but it still looked lived in.
Marinette raised her hand to knock on the door, and the door opened, and Master Fu looked at her.
"Marinette," Said Fu, his voice hoarse, "I feared the worst, please, come in, come in."
Marinette follow the old man into his home. The miracle box open, showing the Turtle and Fox miraculous, both grey and lifeless. Fu noticed her gaze.
"Both went like that during the event." Said Fu, "I believe that everyone is calling it 'the snap' or something similar."
"Yes, master," Said Marinette, her head bowed, "I was actually wondering if you could do something."
"I cannot restore the earrings, Marinette," Said Fu, making Marinette's head snap up to look at him, "I know that you need them to fix this, but they were created long before my time and the only ones I know would be able to restore them are the Sorcerer Supreme and The All-Father."
"Both of whom are dead." Said Marinette, her eyes falling to her lap.
"Yes." Said Fu, "and even if I could, I would not be able to."
"Why?" Marinette asked, fear settling in her stomache.
"I am old, Marinette," said Fu, "Surely you have noticed how much effort it took me to open the door. I'm not going to be here for much longer."
"B-but we need you, I need you," Exclaimed Marinette, "You taught us so much and you're the keeper of the Miraculous."
"Not anymore." Said Fu, looking up at Marinette, "You learnt all that I could teach you before you left, and I serve no more purpose other than to pass the torch to my successor."
Marinette heard a scraping sound, as the Miracle box moved forwards. She looked at Fu, who only hoped that she would take the box. Marinette lurched forwards and hugged him.
