"Nebula!" Athea sighed in relief. The two came across the familiar purple alien who stood in before them. It was weird that she didn't seem to be harmed in the explosion but then again who is she to judge.

"Oh hey I know you." Clint breathed out. He handed her the gauntlet to take a small breather. Something about her was off.....
She smirked and reached up to the touched her earpiece with her finger.

"Father... I have the stones." She said. Athea gasped and went to punch her but a sword was buried deep in her abdomen. Clint watched in horror as she fell to the ground on her knees clutching the handle of the weapon. Her eyes went wide, "N-Nebula?"

"Stop!" A green alien came from behind a corner. Athea fell back on the floor in front of Clint tried to kick the fake Nebula but failed. He was knocked and landed with a bang*.

He turned his head to Athea coughing up Blood and slowly starting to choke.
"Pull the sword out." She gasped. Blood seeped through her clothes quickly and onto his suit.

His hands gripped the handle quickly. He didn't want to hurt her badly. "I'll do it!" She swatted his hands away. Athea but her tongue and ripped out the blade and melted it with her hands.

"That works too..I guess." Clint huffed and sat up.

"Your betraying us?!" Past Nebula hissed as s she saw her sister. She came up and pointed a gun at her future self who stood next to Gamora.

"You don't have to do this."

"Hey! Firecracker. It's okay. It's breathe." He said and sat her up. She winced in pain, Clint tried to cover her wound up to stop the bleeding.

"I AM breathing!" She gritted her teeth. Her stone automatically started to engage in its healing process to protect its host. It was an agonizing process to go through but it had to be done. He took his hands off her when he saw her wound flash a color.

"I am this!" The fake growled

"No your not." Gamora said.

"You've seen what we become." Nebula spoke.

"Nebula listen to her!" Gamora yelled.

"You can still change." Nebula reasoned.

"He won't let me." Nebula hissed and pointed a gun at Gamora with her finger on the trigger.

"No!" Nebula screamed.

Athea shot at the fake with a flick of her wrist.Past Nebula fell as a sharp, purple, crystal pierced through her heart. It killed her instantly.

"that's what you get for stabbing me!" Athea snarled. It was a good decision to chisel off her piece, it made her more powerful now. The aching in her abdomen was stopped and a scar replaced the once opened hole.

"Thank you." Nebula praised the girl who struggled to get up.

Athea smiled "anything for a friend."

"Hello Steve." Athea yelled. She climbed on top of the rubble to see the soldier looking up at her in relief. Her eyes traveled to the large ship and below it was Thanos's army. It was undeniably huge.
