War. It's was lost and won by the united might of The Avengers costing the lives of Tony Stark and Natasha Romanoff. But in this reality Thanos managed to pull a failsafe before he gets dusted! 5 years later shit is becoming unstable in the universe...
Adam Warlock awakens himself from his peaceful sleep and looks out the cosmos.
"The Universe is shifting once more Strange. I fear we're losing time." Adam says as he sees Strange using The Eye of Agamotto as he shifts around in his idle spot.
"Who can it be? Not Von Doom, he's idle in Latveria. The Eternals are idle as well. Adam I'm not finding anything, perhaps it's a new threat in the making?" Strange takes a breath as he sees a disappointed Adam sitting down on the couch stroking his chin.
"Perhaps this threat is either cloaking his tracks or hopping through universes?" Adam wasn't exactly upset but almost impressed by this game of chase.
"Perhaps but if this threat can go through numerous universes without destroying them were basically dealing with a Universal Jaws right now."
"Good thing I understood that reference." Adam smiles.
"Whatever is drawing this thing around our Universe means it has something it wants just waiting to grasp it."
"Would be a great time to get our extra help."
"Surfer, Lylla, Pip, Miss Marvel, and Starhawk will get on this as soon as they can."
"I've noticed the Guardians weren't mentioned?"
"As helpful as they were in the past we won't need their assistance at this moment." Adam chuckles and then Strange.
"I believe your ready to revive Miss Romanoff?" Strange asks closing his book.
"We got a one way path through all this, she can only be around for as long as a year at maximum. No more no less." Adam says as he opens up a golden portal that illuminates the room.
"Then we better make her time count."
They both step in enter into a cloudy orange abyss. Their feet splash against the shallow water floor.
"Natalia Romanoff, daughter of Ivan please show yourself. We've come to you with a proposition." Strange calls out and a figure appears in front of them with a small village house behind her.
She appeared the way she did on Vormir but with her red hair swaying around her knees and didn't have her gloves or boots.
"You must be Strange?" Her hope sounding hopeful.
"I am. This is Adam Warlock and we have a way to offer you temporary salvation but we are gonna need your help." He says as she sees a stir in her face.
She collapses to her knees and tugs a strand away from her face and tears stream down her cheeks. Strange sits besides her and places a comforting arm around her.
"This won't be easy but you can go back if you truly desire. We know the one they call Gamora I'd around here with you." Strange says.
"No, I'll go Strange. She gets up. "If the Universe needs the Black Widow it will get her." She wipes her tears and as Adam Warlock fires a blinding beam around her and she agonizingly wakes up back on Vormir where Strange is waiting for her.
"Hurry, your body is still injured." Strange opens up a ring to his Sanctorum and she walks through with him. She lays on the table.
"I found a simple healing spell, just relax." Strange signals his hands as calming energy forms around her and with each breath her body feels great and completely relaxed till there's no pain left.
"Does anyone else know about me?" She asks.
"No, but once we get the others then you can finally reunite with your family." Strange sadly smiles.
"I understand. Thank you both for this even if it's temporary." She weakly smiles.
"You need anything?" Strange asks.
"Some good food, some scissors, a burner phone, addresses, new clothes, and some cleaning products." She deadpannedly says as she puts up her hair and removing her outdated suit.
"OK, we'll start shopping." Strange orders cloak to surround her for privacy and he reverts to casual wear.
"I'll look for Gamora." Adam says.
She cuts her hair to her tailbone and puts it in a up-down do, puts on a sports bra with a sweatshirt, sweatpants, and running shoes.
"Ok, what's next Doctor?" She asks.
"Your accompanying friend's soul just entered her past body so she'll be in touch and it leaves us with one person."
"Tony..." Both went completely silent. The hard feeling of his death still lingering in both of them. This was a hard thing for them to do.
"He'll understand once we explain." Strange said with hesitation. Natasha holds his hands.
"He will be upset but he'll do anything for his family and friends." Nat smiles at Strange with a comforting smile.
"Thank you Natasha. Mr.Warlock I believe you'll be heading to the stars?" Strange asks.
"Indeed, I'll direct them here. Farewell and good luck to you both." Adam teleports away leaving the two to get down to business.
