YOUR POV

"What'd you do? WHAT'D YOU DO?!" I heard Thor yell, watching Thanos use the stone and vanish from the world.

Steve stumbled towards me, holding his left side as he helped me up. I held my broken arm to my chest, panting as Steve and I hobbled over to Thor.

"Where'd he go? Thor... where'd he go?" Steve asked the god who looked completely checked out mentally.

"Steve?" I heard Bucky's voice from behind me. Bucky suddenly stumbles over, drops his gun and collapses into ashes, much to Steve's shock; he walks over and touches the ground where Bucky's ashes evaporated disbelievingly.

"Oh god!" I mumbled to myself, panic filling my heart that hammered against my chest.

"NATASHA!" I screamed running around the forest, seeing other members of our team, and some Wakanda soldiers vanish into dust.

I saw a mop of blonde hair through the trees, Nat running out. We both stopped when we saw each other, before she took off towards me. Nat brought our faces down and she kissed me with so much emotion. Her body trembled against mine and I knew she thought the same thing I did.

"I thought I lost you." Natasha mumbled into my chest.

"Thanos is gone."

Natasha and I walked over to Steve, her arm wrapped around my waist to help me stand up since my body was still so weak. I looked around at the remaining members, my heart sinking into my chest because what if nobody else was alive?

Captain America, Thor, War Machine, Black Widow, Bruce Banner, Rocket and me were the only ones left, standing here mourning near Vision's dead body. Captain America turns over Vision's bleached corpse, his head falling at the sight.

"What is this? What the hell is happening?" Rhodey rushed out.

Steve paused before his body tensed up, "Oh, God."

THIRD PERSON POV

"Still no word from Stark?" Nick asked Maria as they drove down the road.

Maria sighed heavily, "No, not yet. We're watching every satellite in both hemispheres, there's still nothing."

There was a three beeps coming from the tablet in Marias lap.

"Multiple bogeys over Wakanda!"

"Same energy signatures as New York?" Fury asked.

"Ten times bigger."

"Tell Klein. We'll meet him at-"

"Nick, Nick!" Maria yelled, a car spirals out of control in front of them. They get out and Hill checks on the passengers.

"They okay?" Fury asked getting out of the car.
Behind their vehicle, a motorcycle lies in the middle of the street with a concerned citizen approaching it.

Maria looked confused, "There's no one here."
They hear helicopter rotor sounds from the direction they'd come, but it sounds wrong.
The screaming around them intensifies as citizens run around like headless chickens. The two are now witnessing civilians around them suddenly disintegrating.

"Call Control. Code Red."

Maria glanced down at her hands to see them turning into ash, "Nick?"

"Hill?"

Fury then races back to their car and gets a what appears to be an old pager with extra gear attached out of his bag on the back seat. He sends out an emergency alert, mere seconds before his hand turns into ashes.
