"You killed him, didn't you?"

Gamora stands before me under the peach and yellow sky.

"He's gone...I stopped him." She smiles at our victory

"I'm proud of you, you saved the world Velie."

"I..." My eyes dart to the ground before back up at her "I did."

"Don't be sad, you can start a new life."

"But you won't be there."

"It doesn't matter, the universe is alive and you can get away from him. That's all we wanted."

"I can't leave you behind here."

"I can't come back, no matter how much I want to. Go live, you can finally be free."

"I don't know how."

"You'll find someone to teach you, like I did." She gives me a warm smile, holding out her hand

I take it and begin to fade away.

THIRD PERSON

Steve lowers her to the ground as they all stand in shock.

"Did she just kill him?" Natasha asks looking at the mere child who lies on the ground, numb to the world

"I guess so."

"Vis..." Wanda sighs in her thick accent

She looks over to the girl, taking the stone from the gauntlet and bringing it back over to Vision, resting it in his forehead. 

"Please work, please work." She begs

As if by her sheer will for it to work, it does, the vibrant red slowly spilling out from the stone and into his body, bringing it back to life. His eyes gently open as he surveys his surroundings.

"Wanda?" He asks

"It's ok Vis. We did it." She hugs him tightly

Orange sparks fly out from a portal as it widens, Stephen walks through the others trailing behind him.

"What happened?" He asks

"We did it." Steve smiles

"Alright, we need to tend to the injured." Natasha tells them all

"We can treat them here." T'Challa offers "Shuri is quite good with these things."

"Great." Steve smiles "But what do we do about the stones?"

"Leave that and her to me." Stephen tells them

"She needs treatment." Shuri argues

"But after that she's my responsibility."

"What are you gonna do?"

"Find out if she's a threat."

"She killed him, she's obviously not a threat." Natasha protests

"We don't know her intentions."

Everyone looks at the girl, still pale and lifeless. Some look at her with pity, others with fear and one with curiosity.

My eyes flutter as I look around the bright room sitting up. A man walks through the door as I scramble back in the bed, afraid I'd be in trouble.
