The Return of the Stones

Chapter 3

     They snapped and waited. Nothing was happening and they started to get worried, but then like the Universe has for the first time listened to their pleads, they were in a blink at the Earth. Sand or what seemed like it, but in real was ash started floating everywhere.

     "Steve?" A voice sounded behind the heroes that had their guard for the sudden action they just were viewers of. You could say that after being around gods, mystic spells, sorcerers and things like the infinity stones, they wouldn't be that surprised; but here they are with their mouths slightly opened and as surprised as they could. They turned to see the source of the voice and there was in all his glory the now White Wolf, ex-winter soldier, Bucky Barnes displaying a light smile. Nobody saw Steve running faster and he just hugged his best friend with all his might.

     "Too ti-tight  Stevie" Bucky told the captain and his friend, slightly embarrased by the fact he just ran to hug his friend, lessened the strength of the hug until he broke it. 

     "I am happy that you are back" Steve said. Then what sounded like a cough was heard and they turned aroun, but this time it was Nebula's and Rocket's turn to be happy. There in all their weird, but amazing glory were the rest of the guardians looking a bit lost, but their happiness inncreased more.

     "It seems that even if it is difficult, heroes aways win and finally Thanos is down. But that trip to the stone was a bit painful if you ask me" a female voice said and for the first time Star Lord was seen running, taking the owner of the voice in his arms. Gamora laughed a little and Quill kissed her, leaving some uncomfortable Avengers watching them givin affection to one another. The others were the same, but Groot hugged Rocket so tight it looked like Rocket was gonna be crushed, the racoon was just hugging with the same might, thinking how much he missed that tree. Drax, Mantis and Nebula were just watching their family together again.

     Natasha and Clint noticed with Vision a certain lady that was laying on the floor, now in a sitting position, looking a bit, no she looked very shocked.

     "Vision?" her accent was clear as ever, making the advanced and just returned to life android go directly to her. He took her in his arms and then guided hher hand to the middle of his forehead.

     "There is nothing there now, I can only feel you, and you can only feel me" He said then showed Wanda the stone in now floating in his hand.

     While all of this was happening, a certain billionaire with the help of his fiance and his best friend, was looking for a certain teen or sorcerer. 

     "It worked. And as I said that was the only way. The world needed Anthony Stark to be saved, they needed Iron man, so your life was more worth than the stone if it was the only way to save the Earth" said a wise voice and then an orange light was seen and there was Wong and Strange.

     "It seems like everybody is coming back and the world will be safe again" Rhoddey said

     "Yeah that may be true, but there are still some missing" Tony said

    "Stay calm Tony, that kid that was with you will be here, just wait for a little bit. But just  a warning, he might or might not felt everything and in that world while us were lost and at the same time with one another, there was pain for us bearable, but sometimes he felt more and with that healing factor he told me about. Let's just say, it was tough for him" Strange explained.

     What Stephen just told him didn't help Tony's nerves and he was now nervous and frantic, leaving a worried Pepper and a slightly nervous Rhodey to deal with Tony. Hulk decided to approach the group as quietly as possible, to not disturb the happy reunion that were taking place around him. Yes, the hulk had a heart and Natasha was smiling at that thought.
