I woke up still next to Michelle. I propped myself up so that I was sitting, nobody else was up. Oh, wait no, there is somebody awake. Gamora was sitting in the middle of the arch like how we first saw her. 'Should I go and talk to her or just lay back down?'
I thought about this for a moment
I can't handle the quietness so I'm just going to talk to her
I got up and went over to her. She noticed me coming and smiled

"Hi" I said not knowing anything else to say
She looked up at me and smiled
"Hey" she responded
I sat down Next to her
"Your up early" she whispered
I smiled "Or what passes for early anyway"
She maded a half hearted laugh
"What's your deal kid? Why are you here with these Terrans?"
"I'm an avenger"
"Your an avenger? You don't look any older then 16"
"Ok I'm 17 and Mr.Stark dubbed me on our way to titan" I half argued half laughed
"Who's Mr.Stark?" She asked

I felt a pang of hurt inside me, I frowned

"I didn't mean to upset you, we can move onto another subject if you want" she said
"No it's ok, he uh was basically my mentor and I guess I was like his sidekick" I shrugged
"What happened to him?"
"I don't know. After I-" my voice broke "before I came here the last thing that I saw was Mr.Stark leaning over me, crying." I felt the tears well up in my eyes. Before I met gamora's gaze again I wiped the tears and tried to forget about that moment for the time being.

"How do you know that we're in the soul stone?" I changed the topic
"Besides one other person I think, I know the most about the stone" she paused "that being the location and how it works"
"Where was it?"
"On a place called vormir," she breathes in "it's my fault all this happened if I didn't tell thanos where the soul stone was nobody would be here" she accused herself
"I'm sure you had a good reason" I protested
"I saved my sister from being tortured"
"See: good reason"

She smiled
We talked for a little while after that, About a lot of things. When Peter Quill woke up he came and sat with us. One by one when the hero's woke up they joined us only two people remained sleeping: MJ and Bucky.

I decided to step away from the big conversation about how we're getting out of the stone and went to sit by MJ, even if she was sleeping.
As soon as I sat down she opened her eyes and grinned.

"Morning Parker" she stretched
"Morning" I replied

She sat up and tried to crack her back

"Man sleeping on the floor is killing my back" she said
"You think you have it bad I have to sleep on the floor with this suit on, don't get me wrong it's amazing but very uncomfortable to sleep in" I claimed
She half smiled
"So, we gonna talk about what happened last night?" She asked

Why was she asking to? Maybe she doesn't like me like that.
"Did I over step?" I said contentiously
"No not at all" she shook her head

'So she DOES like me like that'

"I was going to ask you if it was going to become more than one kiss" she said
This surprised me, Michelle Jones just said that? I don't know if I should trust my ears, I don't think they're working

I was about to answer when Mr.Strange called me over

"Hey Pete wanna come listen to our idea?" He shouted
"Yeah I'm coming" I got up and held out a hand to help up MJ
She gladly took it, I hoisted her to her feet but before we walked over I said to her
"We'll finish that conversation later"
She smirked at that

"What do you guys have?" I asked, I noticed Bucky was up now
"Well, see the sky?" Steven pointed up " it's not infinite, so if we some how get up there and try crack it it may give us a chance to get out"
"I think it's worth a shot" MJ spoke up
"So how we going to get up?"Bucky asked
"I can fly" Wanda responded
"I can use my boots, that have rockets on them" starlord said
"I could hang on to someone flying" I suggested
"I'm still in my suit so I should be able to get my wings up and going" Sam perked up

The plan was that Wanda would lift everyone in the air (except MJ) And and throw them at the orange sky then we'd all try crack the barrier with whatever force we had.

We lined up, Wanda behind us and MJ behind her. She started to count down
"10"
"9"
"Are you sure you guys are up for this?"
We all nodded
"7"
"6"
She started to ignite her powers
"5"
My spider senses warned me about something.
"4"
Then it felt like someone had kicked me in the stomach
I landed on the floor
"Ahhhhh" I cried in pain
MJ rushes over "peter, you ok?" There was panic in her voice

"Something....bad is... about.. to happen" I said in long breaths as I clenched my stomach
I saw that everyone was crowded around me

"Guys" I herd Sam say
We all looked at him
'Oh no'
He was fading away
