"Again Clint I'm fine" Nova assured, trying her best to not roll her eyes as they sat in the kitchen while Tony, Bruce, and Rocket were creating a new gauntlet.
"I'm making sure" he said, but Nova knew why, he figured that she was probably emotionally unstable. It made sense, after what Nova had told him, and to her surprise the other Avnegers had heard about her unborn child. Tony, Bruce, Steve and even Thor were careful around her, asking her every freaking five minutes if she was okay.
"Everyone seems to be doing that" she said, biting her lower lip. But she grabbed his hand, forcing him to look up at her eyes,"Look what happened, can't be changed, it took me a very long time to accept It. But now I have. So please don't worry about me" she almost pleaded not wanting everyone to look at her as a fragile piece of China.
"I'll always worry about you, Nov. I trust you and—" he scoffed shaking his head,"I trusted her too."
Nova nodded that she felt bad not asking how he was,"and how have you been holding up?" She questioned, studying his face.
Clint looked away from her as his eyes turned glossy,"I'm living" he answered vaguely. She didn't press hard on it. Even if it happened two days ago it was still hard on them. Nova now had a new set of nightmares on her list, which was watching Natasha falling to her death, and Nova blamed herself.
She didn't want to tell Clint that it was her fault for letting Natasha die because he would instantly disagree saying it was Nat's choice. But Nova hated how she didn't hold onto her much longer and tighter.
Nova sighed, looking around the kitchen as she glanced over the desk where Natasha use to chat with other people,"She use to eat a peanut butter sandwich almost everyday. I remember I couldn't stand the smell of it at some point" she mused.
Clint's face was still hard like stone.
Nova frowned, tightly holding his hand as he held it back tighter.
"Guys" Scott suddenly said, bursting into the room. He looked to the two, but his face semi dropped,"Did I interrupt something?"
Clint shook his head, as Nova let go of his hand,"What is it?" He said,
"The gauntlet its ready."
———————————
Nova had gathered up with the rest of the men in her new blue jumpsuit that reminded her a lot of Natashas old one back when they first caught in New York. She stood beside Clint staring at the gauntlet that was red like Tony's iron man suit.
"Alright the gloves ready. Question is whose gonna snap the freakin fingers?" Rocket asked them.
Thor instantly raised his hand, walking toward the glove,"I'll do it"
Tony and Steve instantly stopped him,"Wait"
"Thor—"
Nova stood in place as she glanced at Clint,"Just wait, we haven't decided who would put it on" Steve said, gesturing to the gauntlet.
"Well I'm sorry we're all just sitting waiting for the right opportunity?"
"We should at least discuss it" Scott defended.
"Staring at it isn't going to bring everyone back" Thor argued,"I'm the strongest avenger so this responsibility falls upon me"
"Wait a second" Tony began as the two went back and forth with Thor yelling,"Stop it, just let me!"
"Just let me do it. Let me do something good, something right" Thor pleaded, Nova felt bad for the God.
"Its not just that the glove channels a lot of energy, I'm telling you your in no condition" Tony explained.
"What do you think is coursing through my veins?"
"Cheese whiz" Rodhey added, causing Nova to give throw him a look.
"Lightning" he whispered,
"Lightening won't help you, pal" Bruce piped in,"Its gotta be me. You saw what those stones did to Thanos, it almost killed him. None of you could survive." he said. Banner began to walk towards it with Nova pushing herself off the wall,"How do we know you will?" She asked.
"We don't" he replied,"But the radiation is mostly gamo. It's like I was made for this" he sighed, picking the glove up.
"You ready?"
Banner nodded,"Let's do it."
"Remember everyone Thanos snapped away, five years ago. We're bringing now back to today. Don't change anything from the last five years"Tony reminded.
Bruce nodded,"Got it."
Everyone stood back, Nova was pushed back by Steve who shielded them with his vibranium shield.
Tony spoke to FRIDAY that caused everything around to be shut down with metal windows and doors.
Nova watched Bruce out the glove on that adjusted to his side but she began to panic when he bent down, kneeling in pain"Bruce!?" She yelled concerned.
"Take it off!" Thor screamed,
"No,no, Bruce you okay?!" Steve asked, as the stones began to shine brightly, with its energy coursing through his body.
"Banner talk to us"
Bruce weakly nodded,"I'm okay" He semi yelled, Nova huffed, holding onto Steve's arm.
Bruce screamed to the top his lungs, he pushed his thumb against his middle finger, making a snapping sound. But as soon as he did, his eyes rolled to the back of his head, falling to the ground.
Nova widened her eyes,"Bruce!" She called, rushing to his side with everyone else. She instantly kicked the glove away, kneeling down.
Steve almost touched Bruce's arm but Tony stopped him, telling him not to move it, while he sprayed a cold cast on it.
"Did it work?" Banner asked, groaning.
Nova looked around. The metal doors and windows went away with it showing the outside. Scott went to go see with Clint looking back at his that was ringing.
Nova raised her eyebrow, watching Clint walk to his phone. He inhaled a gasp, that made Nova rose to her feet, walking closer to him,"Honey" he stuttered.
Oh my god, it actually worked.
Nova smiled happily at Clint. She turned around to tell them the news yet she saw Bruce look up confused. She followed his eyes seeing a space ship above them.
"What the fuck" she mumbled, taking a step toward them, but instantly something bright had shot down at them.
Nova screamed out, as the force of a bomb pushed her against the wall. She winced about to stand up but multiple bombs went around. She put her arms around her head to take cover but when she felt a hard object hit her, she truly could no longer see a thing. A couple of screams bursted in the air, but with her body falling down a hole, Nova suddenly lost her breath with her vision becoming pitch black.
