Frostbite ❆ Peter Parker

twenty-four

Thanos reeled his head back hitting Mantis, gripping onto the gauntlet and pulling it out of Peter's hold.  Grabbing onto Mantis he launched her away from him, "oh god." Peter sprung up, catching Mantis midair.

His Iron-Spider legs extending as they hit the ground floor, "Beth! Get up!" Thanos brought his leg back, kicking Drax into Quill and Nebula as they all tumbled away. Beth struggled to her feet, her hands held out in front of her as she tried to keep Thanos away.

The Titan yanked on the magic Strange was holding him back with sending the wizard's body flying at the girl. Knocking both of them down as Beth cried out when she landed on her shoulder. Tony flew towards Thanos firing his repulsors. But the Titan only had to throw his hand back, shoving Tony away.

Quill, Drax, and Nebula all got up and charged towards Thanos but he raised the gauntlet. Purple aura radiating from it as he fired it towards the trio, they all stopped midair before crumpling to the ground. Tony flew back at him, sending his fist to his face before rushing back as a blade extended from his suit.

Thanos knocked his head forward, whirling Tony backward. Beth got up slowly got up as she silently made her way over when she saw Thanos' gauntlet facing towards the moon. Clenching his fist a purple layer wrapped around the moon. Tony's eyes widened as the moon started descending itself towards them.

Beth boosted herself off the ground moving towards Tony as he propelled himself up towards the moon. Columns of ice shot out of the ground following her as she pressed her two hands against the moon, ice crawling its way around it. Letting her slow it down slowly, but her adrenaline was fading. Her powers were taking a toll on her body as she exerted so much power in the fight. Beth's shoulder burned from where Quill had shot her, being lucky that her suit kept it from going through but it still burned. Tony could notice as her body started loosening.

Her eyes rolled back, Tony grabbed onto her as her body went into defense mode. Shielding the two of them with a field of ice as they crashed into the ground, the moon falling on top of them shattering everything into pieces. The moon had slowed down, thanks to Beth, but the ground had broken apart, pieces of rocks and rubble now floating around the atmosphere.

"Mr. Stark, are you guys okay?" Tony shook his head as he pushed himself up, Beth now passed out beside him. "Yeah, I'm gonna throw Beth to you," Peter uttered back a response before Tony had launched the two of them out of the rubble. Throwing Beth upwards, the gravity moving her higher until Peter webbed her towards his body.

Swinging around he made sure he wasn't hurting her as he webbed onto the unconscious guardians, "I got you, I got you." Yanking on the webs as he pulled them closer to him, "sorry I can't remember anybody's names."

Tony landed in front of Thanos after Strange was knocked out, "you throw another moon at me, and I'm gonna lose it." Thanos' face hardened, "Stark." Tony glared at the Titan that's been stuck inside his head, "you know me." Thanos glared at the man in a suit of armor, "I do. You're not the only one cursed with knowledge." Tony clenched his jaw, "my only curse is you."

Small rockets extended from the back of his suit. Thanos let out a groan in frustration, "come on." As the rockets hit, dust surrounded the Titan giving Tony enough time to propel himself forward. His feet connecting together as they slammed into Thanos, flipping back around they stuck onto the floor. Tony sending his two fists at the gauntlet wielder. Thanos jumped back up ripping the Iron Man mask right off his suit.

Tony's eyes widened as the nano-tech quickly moved to form a new mask. Thanos landing a punch that sent him to the ground. The Power Stone glowing from the gauntlet as a wave of energy shot out of it, Tony formed a shield in front of him as the power sent him backward slightly.

Diving out of the way he sped over to Thanos hit foot coming down onto the Titan's hand, pinning it to the floor. The nano-tech around his fist enhancing as he used all his force to hit Thanos. The Titan's head flew to the side, heavy breaths left Tony's lips. Slowly Thanos' hand came towards his face, "all that for a drop of blood."

Bethany's eyes shot open from where she was held in Peter's arms, her eyes cast down as she watched her dad become vulnerable to Thanos' attacks. Thanos ripped his hand out of Tony's suits hold launching him back onto the ground.

The Titan delivered punch after punch, showing no mercy as Tony tried desperately to fight back. Tony fired a beam from his repulsors at Thanos, the nano-tech moving around so he could fire another beam from his other hand. The Titan shielded himself with the gauntlet slowly walking forward.

Beth tried to stand from where she laid wounded on one of the floating platforms. Crying out from the strain before Peter pushed her back down, and then she screamed out as Thanos ripped the sharp blade from Tony's hold. Twisting it around and driving it through Tony's abdomen, her dad sputtered as he was pushed down.

Peter couldn't hold back Beth this time as she launched herself at the Titan, her legs locked onto his shoulders as she yanked back on his head with incredible strength. Bending her back so she was almost upside down columns of ice outstretched from the ground connecting to her hands. Using her strength that she didn't know she had in her, she flipped Thanos over. His body slamming to the ground as she stood shakily, creating a blockage from him and her dad.

Beth's body shook in overwhelming exhaustion as she worked herself to the bone, and after ever strike she sent his way despite the pain that coursed through her body. She would not stop because she couldn't lose her dad. Her shaking hands were held out in front of her. Thanos struggled to move as ice froze everything in his body as soon as it made contact.

Beth let out a scream as she strained herself, cold winds picking up around her. Her hair whipping around her as her eyes glowed, Thanos fought back but the girl's power was too much. All he needed was a little distraction, a red glow enveloping the Titan. All it took was a blink of an eye and Thanos was no longer standing there but her mother.

The woman who gave her life up so she could live. The person she still carries the guilt of her death over. "Bethany, please." And that was all it took for her focus to break, Thanos had broken free sending blades of ice everywhere. A purple aura wrapped around her body as she was lifted into the air, everything in her body screaming in pain. Beth's body was slammed down onto the ground before tossed down beside Tony like a ragdoll.

Thanos took slow steps towards them, "you have my respect, Stark." He bent down so he was eye to eye to Tony, "when I'm done, half of humanity will still be alive." Thanos stood back up, towering over them. He smirked,

"I hope they remember you."
