Glitter & Gold (Marvel/Star Wars Crossover)

Chapter 62: The Vision

Ruby cried as she looked over at us. "I didn't mean to."

She then stood up as she yelled out. "Oh, God. Get out! No! No! Get out of me! Please make them stop!"

"Make who stop?" Piecor questioned.

"All of them! Just please put me back in the machine! Get it out of me!" Ruby demanded.

"We can't. It only works one way." Jemma explained.

"You lie! You always do this!" Ruby snapped.

Ruby then lifted up Jemma, Leo, and Piecor. I watched in horror as I tried to intervene, Daisy held me back. "Let Hale try and talk her down, first."

Hale then looked over at us before moving towards Ruby. I took a deep breath, anxiously waiting for them to be released.

"Ruby, put them down." Hale ordered.

"Experimentation without consequence." Ruby replied.

"It's Mom. Look at me!" Hale demanded.

At her words, Piecor, Leo, and Jemma all fell to the ground. Ruby turned to her mom as she cried. "Mom there's something really wrong."

"I know. We're trying to figure it out. Just stay strong, sweetie. Don't panic, just try not to panic, okay?" Hale advised.

As they spoke, Piecor, Jemma, and Leo all carefully walked over towards us. May looked over at us. "They can't be here. I'll get them past any mechs."

"Come back. I'll need you." Daisy urged.

May nodded. "Okay."

"Allie, take Piecor back." I insisted.

Allie nodded. I gave Piecor a hug before pulling away to look at him. "You all right?"

"Yeah, I'm fine." Piecor assured me.

"Alright, go with Allie, May, Jemma, and Leo." I advised.

Piecor reluctantly left. Once they all rushed out of the room. Ruby yelled out another scream before she frantically paced the room.

"Honey, just listen to my voice." Hale insisted.

"Listen to you, listen to them! Listen, listen, listen!" Ruby snapped.

"Remember your training. We'll get through this." Hale assured her.

Ruby violently shook her head. "I can't control it. It's like I'm being ripped apart."

"Ruby, I have been right where you are, and I know that it seems impossible right now, but you will overcome this. Believe me." Daisy chimed in.

"No. They're too loud. They're trying to take over!" Ruby cried.

"Just focus. Breathe. Stay calm." I advised.

"It's too late." Ruby retorted.

"No. Daisy and Storm are right. Daisy's been through this." Hale commented.

"Daisy. It's always Daisy!" Ruby hissed.

"Try not to lose control, okay?" I insisted.

"Your powers will only get more dangerous." Daisy added.

At that moment, with her powers from the Gravitonium, Ruby pulled Daisy and me towards her. She narrowed her eyes at us. "Everything powerful is dangerous. You know, for a long time you were everything that I wanted. You two were my heroes...And now look at us."

I tried to break out of her grip, but with the Gravitonium, she was too strong. I glanced over at Hale, who quickly intervened. "Ruby, let them go."
