Hannah drove home. Peter Quill was in the passenger seat next to her. He looked at everything around them, taking in everything.

"Where are we?"

"This is New York, Peter," she said. "We're driving to my place."

"Your house?" he repeated.

She nodded. "Thanks to my job, I was able to keep the house my uncle and I lived in."

"Your uncle?"

"My mom's bother," she said.

Peter nodded.

"The buildings are huge," Peter said.

"They are," she agreed, "but over time, you get used to it."

Peter didn't say anything.

They got to the house and got out of the house. Hannah nervously walked up to the house. She knew Luke was going to be in the house. 

She unlocked the door and entered. Luke was standing there, turning around in his spot, confused.

"Uncle L - Luke?" Hannah said.

Luke turned around.

"Hannah?" Luke said. "What happened? I'm so confused -"

Hannah rushed over to her uncle and hugged him. She tried her best not to cry.

"You're alive," she said. "You're here."

"Hannah, I'm okay," Luke assured her when Hannah let go. "What happened?"

"Y - you - I - it's complicated," she said.

"Who's that?" Luke asked, noticing Peter Quill at the door, looking around at the house.

"That's Peter Quill," she said. "Remember the kid who disappeared the night my aunt died?"

"Yeah, I do," he said. "And he's alive?"

"Uh - huh," she nodded.

"Hi," Peter said. "Peter Quill," he walked over to Luke to shake his hands.

"Luke Rogers," Luke said, shaking Peter's hand. "Okay, tell me, what happened? Both of you."

Hannah and Peter looked at each other and sat down on the couch with Luke and began to explain everything. Peter started explaining how he got abducted the night his mother died and what happened to him and what he did over the years. When he finished, Hannah began to tell Luke about how she and Peter Parker ditched the field trip because of a spaceship. They met Peter Quill and the Guardians of the Galaxy and a mad titan named Thanos came and battled them. They ended up losing and half of the population turned to dust and unfortunately, Luke and Peter were two people who died. 

Now, five years later, Hannah, Tony Stark and the remaining members of the Guardians and Avengers did everything in their power to bring everyone back. It led to Tony Stark sacrificing himself to bring everyone back.

Luke sat there, stunned.

"Uncle Luke?" Hannah said. "Are you okay?"

"Y - yeah," he said. "I'm - I'm okay. I'm just..."

"Shocked?" Hannah said.

"Yeah," he nodded. 

"I'm sorry," she said.

"It's not your fault," Luke said. "It's no one's fault. You lost at first, but you did. You guys brought everyone back."

Hannah smiled weakly.

"There's a funeral tomorrow," Hannah said. "I'm going."

"Yeah, me too," Peter said. "The Guardians and I are going."

Luke nodded. "I guess I'm coming with you."

"Thank you," she said, smiling weakly. "Everything... everything will be alright."

"Yeah, it will," Peter said.
