Peter Parker and Jason Grace walked along to hallway until Peter stopped at a door labeled Stephen Strange. It sounded like the people inside were trying to destroy the whole room. He knocked and waited.

The door opened slightly. "If it's housekeeping, then no, you are not needed yet --- oh. Peter. It's you. And the new kid, I presume. Come in, we're trying to prevent Quill from destroying everything. Your help would be much appreciated."

The door opened fully and he walked in with Jason in toll. Strange -- another one of him, was helping everyone else restrain Star-Lord, who looked positively outraged with a gag around his mouth. Black Panther -- T'Challa -- was trying to console him, but it wasn't working.

"Look, there's nothing we can do. We can only sit and wait. Could you please refrain from destroying my room?" Strange muttered as he walked back to the other version of himself and morphed into one -- the one leading them in had been an illusion.

"Now let us give a formal welcome to our guest," he indicated Jason. "I'm Doctor Stephen Strange, and that," he pointed to Star-Lord, "is Peter Quill, also known as Star Lord, and he is presently very distressed, as you can see. That's Wanda Maximoff, also known as Scarlet Witch, " he said as he pointed to a woman who was sobbing in the corner, "And that's Drax, Mantis and Groot."

"I am Groot," said Groot.

"I am T'Challa, the King of Wakanda," greeted Black Panther. "And this is Wanda, White Wolf and Sam."

"Just call me Bucky," muttered White Wolf.

"Well, it's nice to meet you all," said Jason. "I'm Jason Grace, son of Jupiter, the Roman god of thunder."

Everyone collectively groaned. "Oh, now there are more gods?"

"It's a really long story," said Jason. "And I'm sure it's the same with your case too. Now, let's try to figure out what the Hades is going on."

Just then, from the wall speakers a horn blast sounded so loudly that everyone jumped.

Strange released Quill's gag. "What was that for?" groaned Star-Lord.

"Well, it looks like we'll be finally getting answers. It's time to eat dinner," said Jason.
