Whiplash- Book 4

Chapter 26

Bruce slowly puts on the gauntlet. The absolute power overwhelms his hulk body, even at his size and strength, this was painful for him. He grunt and yells out in agony.

"Take it off. Take it off!" Thor says as he waves his hand at Bruce.

"No, wait. Bruce, are you okay?" Steve asks, concerned for his friend.

Bruce didn't answer, only showed more pain.

"Talk to me, Banner," Tony says as you look over his shoulder.

"I'm okay. I'm okay," Bruce says as sweat drips down his forehead.

Not only did he feel the pain, but because you were connected to the mind stone, you felt the power and strain against all of the stones. You grabbed onto your stomach and fell to your knees.

"Y/n?" Tony asks in panic as he drops down beside you.

Meanwhile, Nebula 2014 begins to activate the quantum portal. She types in the date and activates it, bringing Thanos' mothership to the future.

Back with the teams, Bruce still struggles through the intense pain. Bruce screams loudly and finally manages to snap his fingers.

A bright white light flashed.. and then it ended.

Bruce fainted and fell to the ground, the burnt gauntlet slipping off of his arm. Clint kicks it away.

"Bruce!" You say from the ground as you crawl towards him, ready to help him.

"Don't move him," Tony says as he walks to the side of Bruce, still keeping an eye on you.

Tony spray a cooling agent on Bruce cooling and healing Bruce's burnt arm, courtesy of the gauntlet.

"Did it work?" Bruce asks as he held onto Steve's arm.

"Worth a shot. It's over. It's okay," Thor says as he looks down at his teammate.

"Y/n what happened to you?" Steve asks, everyone looking at you. Your eyes flickered from gold to normal, back and forth.

"I-i don't know.. It was the stone," you mutter as you look up.

The lockdown was then terminated and the windows and doors became open once more.

Scott then walks towards the outside windows and sees plants and birds, and most importantly... the sun. His eyes glossed over in the beauty.

Then, Clint hears his phone vibrating. He walks over to his phone that rested on the table, and looks at the caller. It was Laura... his wife.

"Honey. Honey?" Clint struggles to speak from sheer happiness.

"Guys...I think it worked!" Scott says as he smiles at the birds and plants.

Bruce opens his eyes for a moment... and sees the one thing that could ruin this moment.

Thanos' mothership.

A single missile was shot at the base you all stood in, the first one throwing Scott backwards.

Then multiple more missiles were fired at the base, completely destroying the base, causing everyone to fall underground and under the rubble and debris.

Everyone had gotten separated. Bruce, Rhodey, and Rocket were under most of the debris.

Bruce used the arm that wasn't injured to hold up a large piece of concrete that held several hundred pounds.

Rocket was stuck under some more rubble that held his little body down to the ground, making it hard for him to breath.

Rhodey was stuck in his suit that was badly damaged.
