After the Snap, the world is without the Armored Avenger, the Star Spangled Man, the God of Thunder, The Archer, and The Spy.
Years later, when an old friend arrives with an idea that gives them a bit of hope and a plan to get the Infinity Stones...
The events that took place earlier that morning had everyone so awake that they couldn't go back to sleep.
Now, they all were present in the living room. With the exception of the kids, of course. They were told to stay in their room.
Peter sat at a table in a wheelchair, an IV bag hanging on a pole next to him.
On the holo-screens, profiles of people came up on a casualty report. People that were wiped out from the Snap....people that they knew.

Steve Rogers. Natasha Romanoff. Sam Wilson. Wong. Stephen Strange. Jane Foster.
Darcy and Erik put their heads down when they saw Jane's profile come up. This was a lot. More reports came up.
Clint Barton. Nick Fury. Maria Hill. Scott Lang. Eva Alexander. Kaelynn Alexander.
The last two made Sam's breath hitch in his throat. 'Mom...Kae...' he thought to himself.
A tear trickled down his cheek as he and the others watched the reports continue on the screen.
T'Challa T'Chaka, Sharon Williams, May Parker.
That last one stabbed Peter in the heart as he felt a wave of crying coming on.
"World governments are in pieces, as you can imagine." Rhodey started, "But the parts that still work are trying to take a census. It looks like he did what he said he was going to do."
"Which was?" Darcy asked.
Bruce stepped in to answer this one. "Uh, Thanos wiped out fifty percent of all the living creatures on Earth."
"Not just on Earth." Sam interjected. Everyone looked at the young Hispanic boy, confused at what he meant. But Peter knew. "It happened all across the universe...everywhere."
Bruce's eyes widened at the sound of that. The whole thought of it all was just too over whelming.
"So does um....anyone know where he is...like right now?" Peter asked.
Rhodey shook his head and folded his arms. "Nope. Guy just opened up a portal and walked outta there."
Peter thought about that until he was pulled from them by movements his peripheral vision. Looking to his right, he saw in a small outside area, Valkyrie was pacing around. Shaking her head and hitting the wall as she did.
"Uh....is she ok?" He asked.
Almost as if she heard him, she looked back inside towards the group before she continued her pacing.
"Eh, she's pissed." Rocket answered for him. "She thinks she failed. Feels she could've done more, but there's a lotta that goin' around, ain't there?"
Peter's eyes went wide at the sight of Rocket. He looked just like a raccoon! Only he was apparently anthropomorphic and could talk.
"Ok, I'm gonna be honest. Up until now, I thought you were a life-sized plush Ewok."
