Following the call for help sensed through the Mind Stone, Roger arrived above an old castle nestled in a forest in Northern Europe.

It wasn't that he didn't want to find Jean, but the Mind Stone couldn't connect to her mind at the moment. Instead, he picked up the voice of an unfamiliar girl.

He suspected that this girl might somehow be connected to their unexpected arrival in this world, as the Mind Stone had inexplicably brought him here and linked him to this new voice.

Following the feeling, Roger arrived at the source of the distress call, not realizing the distance would be so great. It took him several minutes of flying at top speed through the air to reach the location.

Upon arrival, Roger noticed a symbol that would be familiar to any Marvel fan: a skull with six tentacles extending from it, the emblem of Hydra.

"...You've got to be kidding."

Recognizing the symbol, Roger finally understood which world he had entered.

It was indeed the Marvel Universe, and from what he could tell, it was set during the timeline when Hydra still existed.

Using his x-ray vision, Roger observed Loki's scepter stored within the base in front of him. This suggested that he had arrived between the events of the first and second Avengers films, just after the first had ended but before the second began.

With this timing, the voice he heard earlier...

"I found them. It's Wanda after all."

Searching further, he finally found Wanda and her brother below the base, no, in this Marvel Cinematic Universe, it would be her brother, Pietro.

They both appeared to have recently undergone Hydra's experiments. Pietro's body twitched unnaturally, occasionally vanishing and reappearing nearby. Wanda, on the other hand, was trying to manipulate some blocks in front of her with her newly acquired powers.

There was no doubt that the call for help had come from Wanda.

When her powers were activated by the Mind Stone within Loki's scepter, it inadvertently linked to Roger's Mind Stone, allowing him to hear her voice.

"So, it's Wanda..."

Seeing her, Roger felt somewhat disappointed.

He had hoped the one calling for help would be someone connected to the Mind Stone itself. Well, technically, she was connected, but it was the Mind Stone from this world, not the one he held.

Sighing slightly, Roger looked down at the Hydra base below. Instead of rushing in, he called out suddenly,

"Watcher? Are you there?"

Since he was in the Marvel Universe, the Watcher was bound to be watching somewhere, though Roger found it strange that despite being back, the Watcher hadn't appeared to ask him to help with Infinite Ultron.

Perplexed, he called again, just to be sure.

If the Watcher were still around, he would certainly appear.

But surprisingly, the Watcher didn't respond. Roger waited a while longer and still didn't see him.

"What's going on...?"

By all logic, the Watcher should be fine. Even without Roger's return, he should have had no problem assembling a team to handle Infinite Ultron.

Could it be that Infinite Ultron was already defeated, making the Watcher's presence here unnecessary?
