IDK why Ela's suit looks pink in the pic, it looks red on the sketch
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
My eyes were trained to the large, circular ship hovering in the sky, turning around itself endlessly. People screamed, pushing past me as they stared back at it, as though they'd never seen a spaceship before. By the time I rounded the corner, the creatures had already descended from it, and Uncle Tony, Doctor Strange, Bruce, and Wong stood just across from them. I spread my wings to catch up and landed just beside Uncle Tony.
"Hear me and rejoice." I tried to focus on the face of the figure speaking, but all I could make out was his- I think it was a he- lanky figure, dwarfed by a titan beside him. "You are about to die at the hands of the Children of Thanos."
He certainly was talking like a child.
"Be thankful... that your meaningless lives are now contributing-"
"I'm sorry, Earth is closed today," Uncle Tony interjected. "You better pack it up and get outta here."
"Stonekeeper." I flashed my eyes toward Doctor Strange, tensing slightly in case I needed to pounce. "Does this chattering animal speak for you?" I found myself snickering as a hurt expression crossed Uncle Tony's face.
"Certainly not. I speak for myself." Strange beat his wrists together, then moved his hands in a pattern to summon two circles in front of his hands. "You're trespassing in the city and on this planet." Wong did the same motions as Strange, while I slammed my staff down once, readying it for an attack.
"He means get lost, Squidward."
"Squidward?" I asked. I couldn't quite make out the alien's face through the dust, so I couldn't confirm what Uncle Tony saw.
"He exhausts me," the lanky one muttered to the titan. "Bring me the stone."
The ground trembled as the titan slammed his weapon down on it, settling the dust. I straightened up slightly as the large, inhuman creature began to lumber closer to us.
"Banner, you wanna piece?"
Bruce looked confused for a second.
"No, not really. But when do I ever get what I want?" His voice turned to a low growl on those last few words, and after, he pumped his arms back forth as though he were psyching himself up.
"That's right."
"Okay. Push!"
He ground his teeth and began to grunt. A green tint started to crawl up his skin, causing the veins in his neck to bulge.
"It's been a while."
The green stopped just below Bruce's chin.
"It's gonna be good to have you, buddy." Bruce looked up at Tony in annoyance.
"Okay. Let me just..." The green started to climb again. "I need to concentrate here for a second. Come on, come on, man."
The titan swung his sword and knocked a car out of the way.
"God!"
"Where's your guy?"
The green faded away as Bruce stood back up straight.
"I don't know. We've sorta been having a thing."
"It's no time for a thing."
"I know."
