The Light Sentinel (Marvel/Star Wars Crossover)

Chapter 16: The Prison Of Memories

As soon as I opened my eyes, I found myself in a large spacious white room, which was pretty empty except for a table filled with advanced technology. I furrowed my brows as I scanned the room.

"Where am I?" I inquired.

At that moment, I heard a voice from behind me. "You are in a Cerebral Fusion Machine. It's our simulation."

I whipped around to see a woman with brown curly hair and light brown skin. Wait...that sounds like I'm in a virtual world. No, no, no. I'm so done with the Framework.

"So I'm in a virtual world right now?" I questioned.

"Yes, only this world isn't used to create but to access knowledge." She clarified.

"That's...different." I replied. "Who are you? What do you want?"

"I am Atarah. I am a sentient Chronicom from a planet which revolved around a star-" Atarah began, but I cut her off, already knowing the rest.

"In the constellation that Terrans know as Cygnus. Yeah, so I've heard multiple times..." I retorted.

So she's Atarah, the one that Baal-Gad mentioned. Atarah seemed intrigued upon hearing my words. "So you have dealt with our kind?"

"Dealt is an understatement. Look what do you want?" I inquired.

"Didn't Malachi tell you?" Atarah asked.

I narrowed my eyes. "Tell me what?"

"Our planet has been destroyed. Set ablaze, heated to the melting point. The magma has now turned to stone." Atarah explained.

"Chronyca-2..." I whispered.

"So you have heard?" Atarah replied.

I nodded. "I've seen the footage of the destruction, including the people who did it."

"Then surely you must have some insight on how to fix this mess." Atarah mentioned.

"Fix this? It's impossible, the only to fix this is to...." I trailed off as it then finally hit me. They wanted to go back in time. "You want to go back in time to save your planet?"

Atarah nodded. "Yes, I must intervene at an earlier date in order to save my planet."

"And you think I know how to sent you back in time? I'm not a scientist." I protested.

"Yet you are intelligent. You Storm Odinson are part of the solution. You can and will help us save our planet." Atarah explained.

At that moment as if right on cue, I saw Bruce, Tony, Nat, Steve, Thor, Kina, Gida, Tarom, and even me were all around a table along with Maria Hill. I looked closer to see it was inside Helicarrier. This was when Kina, Gida, Tarom, and I first became Avengers.

"Anyways, I think it's about the mechanics." Bruce suggested. "Iridium. What do they need the iridium for?"

"It's a stabilizing agent." Tony explained before looking over at Bruce. "I'm just saying, pick a weekend. I'll fly you to Portland. It means the portal won't collapse on itself like it did at S.H.I.E.L.D."

Tony lightly slapped Thor's arm before walking past him. "No hard feelings, point break. You've got a mean swing."

Tony then moved past Agent Hill and toward the screens, which Fury used. "Also, it means the portal can open as wide and stay open as long, as Loki wants."

My heart sunk upon hearing Loki's name. I remember this quite well. It was before Loki and I realized we understood each other...and before we fell in love with each other. I was still thinking about my home galaxy, and everything that had happened to my family and friends.
