Assemble
Thor roared.
T'Challa roared.
Lion roared.
They roared.
The entire army, filled with completely different people of completely different spieces charged forward as one without hesitation. Each one of them, no matter if they were human, gem, asgardian, sorcener, or even a Ravager or a member of the Whitebound tribe, all of them became the Avengers the moment they charged forward to put an end to the Mad Titan's reign of terror.
The first Avenger was the first one to get moving and everyone followed him. King T'Challa was the first one to follow him, his Black Panther mask covering his face, with Shuri and Okoye charging shorty after, and with them, the entirety of the Wakandan army followed. Azurite was the second one to follow Steve Rogers' led. This was it, this was the most important moment of their lives. This will be the day when they will put an end of the Mad Titan's reign. It was going to be just like he said to him when they fought him off after the destruction of the headquarters.
They will stop him.
The dust overcame the field that was once the Avenger headquarters as the thousands feets stomped upon the ground at the same time. Valkyrie pointed her blade forward, glaring ahead as she sat on top of her winged stallion. Many flied alongside her. War Machine, Peridot in her Iron Gem armor, Lapis Lazuli, Freckled Lapis, Iron Man, Falcon, Star-Lord, Pepper Stark in her Rescue armor, they were just one of the many that filled the skies.
With his expression stoic, despise the fact that a massive army willing to do whatever it takes to stop him was charging in his way, Thanos raised his blade, pointing it forward at them. His armies immediately obeyed his command.
The Black Order were the first ones from his army to respond to his order to charge. Cull Obsidian leaped forward from the hill and landed right behind his master. Proxima Midnight and Corvus Glaive tightened their grip around their weapons as they charged forward quickly joining the side of the largest member of the Black Order, and the Ebony Maw floated above the ground, picking up several rocks and turning them into sharpened points, the four children of Thanos being in the front of the charge.
With the Black Order leading the charge, the thousands of Chitauri foot soldiers behind them followed them and charged forward. The tanks hovered above the ground as they joined the charge as well. The dozens of Chitauri Gorillas roared as they ran among them, among the Black Order, Chitauri foot soldiers, and the tanks. The Sakaarans charged ahead, letting their own their own battle cry. Leviathan and Leviathan Drillers all roared and flied forward, filling the skies alongside starships, chariots and necrocrafts. The Chitauri Titans let their own horrendous war screams that actually made some of their enemies flinch but it was a rather short lived feeling. The beasts charged forward, stepping on some unfortunate Chitauri's that happened to be standing in their way.
It was just a moment before the Mad Titan himself joined the charge.
Captain America was the one leading the army of the people that came together to stop Thanos, with his shield and Thor's hammer in his hands. Many charged alongside him. Black Panther charged and was actually one of the two that matched Steve Rogers' in his speed. Garnet was the other one. Thor gave a war cry as he gripped Stormbreaker tightly in his grip. Spinel glared ahead, holding her scythe in ready. if she could she'd use her ability of extending limbs but decided to stay by the sides of her fellow warriors in the army against the Mad Titan. Jasper's smirk was not leaving her lips as she charged by side by side of the likes of Bruce Banner or Korg, the latter was holding his laser rifle in ready.
Jon Whitebound roared as he ran alongside his brothers, it was quickly followed by Rickon and Robb as they let out their own roars, before smirks grew on the lips of each one of the brothers. Shi'ra could already spot both of her plasma casters already picking up a target in the army of her enemies, when she spotted a familiar gem running right by her side. Azurite send her a smirk as she returned it, the two of them charging as one. Squaridot used her limb enhancers get her in the air as she flied alongside many other gems that were in the possession of the limb enhancers, the ball of energy in her other hand was still ready to fire at any moment.
Giant-Man's massive feet shook the ground with each step took, but thankfully the ground was the only thing he hit, sending waves of dirt and dust forward and backwards, not a single Avenger a was hurt. Rocket grinned as he prepared his dual pistols while standing right on top of War Machine's back. Peridot flied right next to James Rhodes, who was flying next to Tony and Pepper Stark. Spider-Man swung from Giant-Man's wrist while Wanda Maximoff flied forward with the crimson on her palms keeping her in the air, next to Doctor Strange.
The two armies finally met each other in the middle of the battlefield and this was when the true madness started. Steve Rogers threw Mjolnir directly into the face of a charging Cull Obsidian, sending the largest member of the Black Order flying backwards. Tony, Pepper and Peridot shared a quick look with each other before repulsor beams sounded off and all of them blew up every chariots and starships and appeared in their sight, with the last one grinning behind her Iron Gem mask, finally having a chance to use the armor she and Tony were working on. Many gems began glowing and dozens of fusions of various sizes and abilities were created.
Stormbreaker collided with the ground in front of Thor Odinson, sending a bolt of lightning forward at the group of Chitauri's in front of him. Lion growled, sending several Chitauri flying backwards while Spinel extended her limbs forward, twirling her scythe around until she reached a group of charging Chitauri's, cutting through several of them like a hot knife through butter, grinning every moment as she did so. Lapis formed a beam of water that was sent right at the Chituari chariot, instantly destroying it. The blue gem spotted a Leviathan flying right at the Giant-Man who clenched his fist, with the obvious intention of punching it. She made this job easier for him and trapped the Leviathan in one place with her water chains, as Scott send a powerful blow right at it's face, sending it to the ground.
Jasper formed herself into a ball and an orange blur charged forward, crashing through several Chitauri's in her way, throwing them aside as she reached the target that caught her eyes. The Chitauri Gorilla roared as it charged right at the quartz soldier that simply smirked and moved forward at it, intending to show it that she is not the kind of a gem you want to mess with. Connie clashed with a single Chitauri and swung her sword at the alien. Her attack was blocked by her opponent, who was knocked backwards when Steven threw his shield right at the alien. The Chitauri stumbled backwards as Connie quickly finished it off by stabbing it right in the stomach. She used her boot to kick it off right off her sword and shared a quick look with Steven as they moved further.
Pearl, Okoye, Blue Pearl, Yellow Pearl, along with many other warriors lowered their spears the moment a swarm of Outriders charged at them. Their tactic paid off just as they thought it would and the bodies of the Outriders were impaled on their spears. Rocket fired at his enemies while still being on James Rhodes' back, screaming every moment as he did so. The Wasp enlarged and drove her boot across an the Chitauri's face, the alien having no chance to spot her before it was too late. Valkyrie flew downwards on her stallion, making a huge cut on the head of a Gorilla trying to reach for Hope van Dyne. Her job was finished by Garnet as the fusion drove her gauntlets right at the huge cut on the Gorilla's head, slicing it's head off.
The wave of Outriders roared as the creatures charged at the Whitebound brothers. The three brothers simply smirked at them and prepared their weapons. Rickon moved forward, and fired his blasters, twirling them every moment as he did so. He was followed by his brothers. Jon swung his blades around, cutting through everything that even thought about trying to face him as Robb simply fired his rifle right at them. This moment of them fighting off a swarm of Outriders only made Jon realize how much he missed his brothers over these past few years.
Bruce Banner fell right from the sky, bringing down a Chitauri chariot with him. He slammed it to the ground and grabbed the Chitauri by it's head, before throwing it into the sky where it was quickly taken out by Squaridot as she fired a beam of energy from her limb enhancers. She got herself back on the ground and quickly looked around herself. The other hand of her limb enhancers that she used to fly into the battle changed itself into the weapon. She looked around and fired energy from both of her hands at everything that caught her eye.
T'Challa spun in mid-air and slammed his foot across the face of an attacking Outrider. Ha landed on his feet and extended his vibranium claws to take out another Outrider charging at him. Okoye stood right by her kings' side. She spun her spear around at the charging alien as Shuri fired off her weapons at the Outrider, bringing it down on the ground as it's life slowly left it's body. Centi swung her sword around to take out an Outrider charging at her. The former corrupted gem didn't had much break after kicking the dead alien off her sword as another one charged at her. She readied herself to take him out but someone else already did her job. Terra who didn't left her captains side brought her spear down at the alien's head, instantly ending it's life.
Terra offered her captain a nod, but then something caught her eye. She pointed in one direction as Centi's eye looked in the direction she was pointing at and saw Shi'ra. The Kratai twirled her spear around. Not a single of the aliens that thought about attacking her stood a chance against her. She came across some bigger opposition when a Chituari Gorilla caught her eyes. The beast roared as it charged at the single Kratai huntresses ahead of it. Shi'ra just shook her head in pity for this creature and aimed both of her plasma casters at it at once. She readied the shot to make sure it would his the Gorilla right in it's head and fired.
When the plasma she fired the Gorilla finally hit her enemy right in it's head, she couldn't help but stare in awe at what happened shorty after. The plasma completely burned through the Gorilla's head. The creature roared in pain as plasma slowly burned it's entire body, leaving nothing out of it behind. Shi'ra's jaw almost fell at in awe at how even more effectful her plasma caster can be when you use two at the time, never having a chance to witness anything like this before. It literally burned the Gorilla's out of existance.
"Stars, now I'm jealous of you having this weapon even more." Centi stated, with Terra nodding her head in agreement, as they approached her.
The Kratai grinned as she turned to the source of the voice. She turned around and approached Centi and Terra, stating, "If you want one, then ask Stark and Peridot. They made me the newer one."
Centi shook her head with a smile as they shared a quick hug with each other, "You did it. You brought everyone back. Everyone that disappered five years ago just popped back into existance before our eyes."
Shi'ra could help but smile at her friends words, but she knew there no time for celebration, "We'll celebrate it after we defeat this bastard once and for all."
The former corrupted gem nodded her head, "Let's go find our friends." She glanced around at Terra, knowing that her crewmate was looking for a certain gem since they stepped through the portal, "And loved ones."
Shi'ra and Terra couldn't help but agree with her and they moved further, taking out everything in their path. Drax leaped forward, screaming maniacally as he proceeded to stab a Chitauri Gorilla in the back, earning the focus of this creature, allowing Korg break from it's grasp. He spun around, slamming his mace across its face. It was when someone else joined them. Orange Pearl leaped forward and wrapped her palms around the Gorilla, cutting through it's skin. The creature roared in pain as Orange Pearl moved downards, finally finishing it off. She glanced over and Drax and offered him a quick nod and he nodded his head back at her. She and Drax met each other when Azurite introduced her and the rest to the Guardians through his device, but it was the first time when they saw each other in person.
Pepper in her Rescue armor destroyed a Necrocraft with a repulsor blast. A familiar red and gold suit joined her side, her husbands own repulsor blast destroying a chariot intending for Pepper with her back turned. Neither left each other. They hovered together, spinning around themselves and firing every repulsor they had, taking out the Chitauri on the skies and on the ground.
Peridot couldn't stop grinning behind her Iron Gem mask as she destroyed a starship with a repulsor blast. The effects of her and Tony's hard work were paying off. Everything in her suit worked perfectly. She quickly turned her attention to a Leviathan heading her way and she didn't wasted her time. She prepared every repulsor her suit had to offer and send blasts of energy towards the Leviathan. The Leviathan screamed in pain, but it wasn't killed as it continued to fly towards her. It was when Tony and Pepper Stark joined her side and fired their own repulsor blasts at the Leviathan who this time couldn't do anything and a moment later it's lifeless body collapsed on the ground.
War Machine touched the ground and dropped off Rocket before taking off once again into the skies. The talking raccoon aimed his dual pistols forward, killing each Sakaaran aiming their rifles for at him, watching as Bucky Barnes fired into the crowds of Chitauri charging them. Two smaller gems joined the Winter Soldier. These two gems were Eyeball and Army. They stopped right next to Bucky's with their own dual pistols and fired at anything in their path. The two gems stopped using their small knives and started using pistols after coming to Little Homeworld after seeing Rocket use one himself during one of his and Nebula's stays in Little Homeworld.
Groot extended his right arm forward, impaling three Outriders with it, while Bismuth send a charging Outrider flying backwards by kicking it away from her with as much force as she had. The creature landed right on it's back. It didn't had a chance to rise back on the ground as Bismuth stabbed it right through it's stomach with her sharpened hand, ending it's life. She quickly glanced around her surroundings to see if there was something headed her way before heading further into the battlefield, but something else caught her eyes. A few gems from Little Homeworld came into her view.
Bixbite glared at the Chitauri attacking her as she dodged it's swung of a spear, leaving it in a valurable position for the gem to strike back. She quickly used this opportunity and used her clawed hand to cut it's head off. Little Larimar and Snowflake Obsidan met up just a moment after the two armies met. Snowflake quickly formed a wall of ice in front of her and short blue gem used her sharp hands to make sharpened points which then were fired at the group of Chitauri heading their way, getting rid of some of them. Biggs Jasper gritted her teeth as she swung her sword around at everything that tried it's chance against. An unfortunate Chitauri was one of them as she simply cut right through it with her blade. She spotted Bismuth standing in the distance. She offered her a quick smile and nod of her head to which Bismuth smiled and nodded back.
Mantis leaped herself from the rock and got herself on the top of the Gorilla as she put her heands right on it's head. The Gorilla slowly collapsed on the ground as it was put to sleep by one of the Guardians of the Galaxy. Thor and Captain America fought off their enemies by each other sides, they currently didn't wielded their weapons because they were thrown to take care of some of their foes, but quickly came back to them, only this time, something went wrong, Stormbreaker flied in Steve's hands while Mjolnir flied into Thor's.
Thor glanced over at the first Avenger wielding Stormbreaker, "No, no. Give me that." He and Captain quickly exchanged weapons, "You have the little one."
The two Avengers moved into different directions of the battlefield while Azurite clashed with two Chitauri, doing his best to avoid each one of their strikes which rather wasn't hard thing to do. his moves were too fast for Chitauri and their strikes didn't really paid off. He grabbed the the spear right in the middle of it and ripped it right from the Chitauri's grasp. He quickly used this weapon to take out the other Chitauri attacking him, before using it at it's owner. The two lifeless bodies of the Chitauri's collapsed on the ground before his eyes. He threw the spear aside before something else caught his sight. A group of Sakaarans in the distance pointed their rifles at him, and his reaction to it was quick. He was about move forward to get rid of them, but then the Sakaarans were cut right in the half by a familiar scythe and someone came into his view. He saw her standing right in front of him.
Spinel was here.
After five years, he was able to her again. They pushed themselves into run until they meet each other in a very tight hug. Azurite was hugging her so tightly as if his life depended on it. The familiarity of holding her again making tears leak from his eyes. He and Spinel looked at each other, looking into each other eyes for the first time in five years. It was when they among the chaos of the battlefield, Azurite quickly leaned down and gave her a deep passionate kiss. Spinel's eyes shot open in suprise at this sudden show of affection from him but went along with it and kissed him back, the two of them enjoying their first moment with each other in over five years.
When they released each other, they proceeded to stare into each other eyes, as Spinel spoke up to him, for the first time in five years, "I love you too."
He immediately knew to what she was referring to. He let out a small chuckle at it, but it was more of bittersweet one,mixed with hapiness of seeing her again, and sadness of her not being able to see her for all these years, "I missed you. I missed you so much..."
Spinel gave him a bitersweet smile as she lifted her hand up to wip a tear falling down his cheek, "Azzie, I can't believe it's been five years since I..."
Azurite shook his head, "Don't say anything. You're here now, that's what matters to me."
He smiled at her, making her bittersweet smile turn into a happy one before they kissed again.
"Hey, lovebirds!" Shi'ra's voice interrupted them as they released each other from the kiss and glanced over in the direction of Shi'ra's voice to see her standing with Centi and Terra. The smile the Kratai sent them showed that she was clearly rejoiced to see Spinel again. Centi was rejoiced to see Spinel again as well, because the pink gem was one of her closest friends while her crewmate Terra simply sent a smile directed towards Spinel and Azurite, happy that these two were finally reunited with each other, "Sorry to interrupt but..."
She was cut off when a familiar voice sounded from behind. Centi and Terra immediately recognized it, "Captain? Terra?"
Centi and Terra could feel how their world stopped when they heard that voice. They slowly turned around and saw Centi's crew slowly approaching them.
The captain of this crew was the first one to speak up to them, nearly dropping her sword at the view of the rest of her crew that was gone for over five years, "...Cotta, Delta, Saphron, Hawk, Eagle, Joy..."
It was just second before Centi and Terra practically jumped into the embrace of their crew, finally having a chance to see them again after these long years. Centi embraced her almost entire crew except for Cotta, but it was understable why she didn't. Terra jumped into Cotta's embrace, immediately pressing her lips against hers, to show her how happy she was to see her again, and how much she missed her.
After Terra and Cotta released each other from the kiss, the latter asked, "Was it really five years?"
Terra could only nod in confirmation, not even thinking about letting her beloved one go, "I love you."
Cotta's response was quick, "I love you too."
Shi'ra just stared at them as Azurite and Spinel joined her side, watching the scene between them with a smile on their faces, "It's good..."
"Was that Shi'ra I just heard?" The voice which belonged to Orange Pearl interrupted Shi'ra in what she saw saying. Shi'ra, Azurite and Spinel all turned around to her. Spinel simply stared at her with a smile, because she and Orange Pearl met each other just a moment after they found themselves in Wakanda in again. Azurite and Shi'ra had completely different reactions. They quickly rushed over to Orange Pearl and embraced her tightly, seeing their friend for the first time in over five years.
Shi'ra laughed happily, "Orange!'
"You have no idea how good it is to see you again." Azurite added.
It was when an orange blur stopped right in front of them. Spinel immediately knew who it was and cheered loudly, "Jassie!"
The pink gem extended her limbs towards her last roommate. She embraced Jasper tightly and her roommate didn't even hesitated and hugged her back. The orange quartz send a quick smile directed towards Orange Pearl, the orange quartz soldier was obviously happy to see both of them again.
She looked around her reunited friends, no her reunited family and said, "Let's finish it, once and for all. He made us weak, wanted us to believe in it, but today we're going to prove that he was wrong."
Rose and Shorty never left each other side since they stepped through the portal into the battlefield. The two azurites were using everything they learned from their fellow azurite and nothing was able to come in their way, even though their lack of experience in the battle was sometimes showing, it didn't really changed anything and the two gems held their ground. Shorty drove her claws into the chest of Outrider while Rose brought down a Chitauri attacking her. The two gems spun and fought in what could have been called a dance if it wasn't battlefield, but no matter how many they killed, more of them just kept coming.
Similiar thing was with Pearl, Yellow Pearl and Blue Pearl. The three pearls stayed by each other side since the two armies collided and waved their spears around at anything trying to come in their way. Lack of experience in battle was sometimes showing in Yellow Pearl and Blue Pearl, but Pearl had to admit, despise the two of them having no much experience in fighting the last time when she saw them in Homeworld on the day when Thanos snapped, and was quite suprised when saw them step through the portals with spears in their grip, but after all, five years was a long time. A lot could have happen since she was practically erased from existance.
The pointy end of her spear fired a projectile at the Sakaaran firing his rifle at her as she turned around to her fellow pearls to see Blue Pearl lower her spear, preparing herself for the attack of a charging Outrider. The beast leaped forward at the blue gem, but it's attack didn't do much as it was impaled on the blue gem's spear. Blue Pearl for once had her hair moved away from her eyes to being able to see everything going on around her. Pearl then saw Yellow Pearl fighting off a Chitauri as the two of them swung their spears at each other. Pearl noted that each one of Yellow Pearl's attack was precise, but unfortunely none of them paid off as the Chitauri was blocking each one of them. It was when it seemed like Yellow Pearl was finally done with the alien and took a step back and fired a projectile from her own spear, finally getting rid of the alien she was fighting off.
Steven and Connie were actually not that far from her. The two teenagers stayed close to each other side as they clashed with everything that came in their path. Connie swung her blade around at the Chitauri she was currently fighting off, until ultimately finishing off by slicing it across it's brought down an Outrider and slammed his shield right against it's head, making sure that there would be one less Outrider on the battlefield.
It was when he spotted someone familiar in the distance.
"Garnet!" A smile grew on Steven's face as he spotted a fusion of the two gems he loved so much, remembering that the last people he saw before shattering into ash were Ruby and Sapphire, comforting him that nothing was going to happen to him.
He broke himself into run, and Pearl saw the fusion too and broke herself into run towards her as well. The moment Garnet saw them and was about to break push herself into run as well was the moment when Steven and Pearl reached her and practically latched themselves into her, embracing the fusion if a tight hug. Garnet smiled and could feel how tears leaked from all of her eyes as she returned the hug.
It was just a moment before someone else joined the hug. Garnet recognized the strong grip and immediately knew that it was Bismuth, but it wasn't over. A certain blue gem landed right in front of them. Lapis Lazuli smiled at the sight before her and it was actually not that long before she joined the hug herself, the entire group enjoying the moment with each other among the chaos of the battlefield.
After they released themselves from the hug,. Garnet send Connie a quick smile, to which she smiled back. The fusion removed her cracked visiors from her face, revealing her teary eyes to them, "You are here, all of you..."
They were here. After these five long torturous years she was able to see them again. It was when the entire group heard screeching from behind the fusion and saw a swarm of Outriders heading their way. They all send each other quick nods and readied themselves to fight them off but their job was done by someone else. A certain green suit armor that was unfamiliar to them, but familiar to Garnet landed right in front of the group of Outriders. A stream of lasers fired from the suit, slicing some of the Outriders in the half, leaving only a few of them alive. The gem inside of the suit wasn't done with them. She extended her hands forward and two beams of energy were fired at the group of Outriders, blowing them apart from existance.
She turned over to the rest and saw everyone except Garnet giving her a suprised expression. Her mask disappered from her face to reveal her rejoiced expression upon seeing all of her friends again.
Bismuth was the first one to speak up to her, "Peridot, what was that?"
Peridot's answer was quick, "Nanotechnology. Do you like it?"
Connie's and Steven's eyes were refusing to close after seeing Peridot in her own armor, as the latter voiced his thoughts, "Peridot! You're like Iron Man!"
"I and Tony called it Iron Gem." Peridot explained, using her finger to wip a tear of happiness that Bruce's snap worked and everyone was brought back to life, "Mark 1."
Steven could feel himself forming a giant smile on his face, happy that almost his entire family was here. He couldn't wait to see his dad again and give him a hug, but there was someone else that was missing. That someone was a certain purple gem, "Where's Amethyst?"
Garnet looked around herself, "She should be somewhere in the battlefield."
"I'll try to find her." Peridot said as she quickly took off into the air. Amethyst wasn't the only one she had to find. She also had to find a certain cloaked man and ask him about something.
Tony landed on the ground, bringing down down a stream of red-hot lasers with him, slicing various Sakaarans in half upon impact. With his feet planted, Iron Man shot out his palms and blew apart several Sakaarans and Outriders that leaped for him. He didn't saw the Chitauri Gorilla coming from behind. The beast crashed him against a pile of rocks and rubble, making him held out his two fists forward. Two Repulsor Cannons formed on his fists and fired at the Gorilla. The blasts barely even touched the Gorilla, the beast howling as it reared back with the slab of sharpened rock between its hands and drove it down onto Stark's Arc Reactor.
It was when it stopped as if something had froze it into the place. Both it and Tony looked back to see the webbing latched onto its arms and preventing it from moving. Spider-Man yanked hard and pulled the Gorilla onto its back. The beast screeched as the gigantic feet of Giant-Man crashed right on top of it.
"Hey! Holy cow! You will not believe what's been going on." He immediately recognized this voice.
Tony's gaze went over to a certain spider suit that leaped forward from where it and it's owner stood, landing right before the Iron Avenger. The mask slid upwards, revealing the face of young Peter Parker. The young Avenger grabbed Tony's hand and helped him to get back on his feet. Tony's expression softened at the view of a person he never thought he'll see again, the man staring numbly and hearing very little that left Parker's lips.
"Do you remember when we were in space? And I got all dusty? I must've passed out, Because I woke up, and you were gone. But Doctor Strange was there, right? He was like, "It's been five years. Come on, they need us." And then he started doing the yellow sparkly thing that he does all the time..."
Peter was suddenly interrupted when Tony broke the distance between them and wrapped his hands around the young Avenger, embracing him in a tight hug.
"What are you doing?" Peter asked him, his hands slowly wrapping around Tony's Stark's, his hero's, back. This question went without answer as Tony knew that no words had to said to show how happy he was to see Peter again. He closed his eyes and tightened his embrace around Spider-Man, "Oh, this is nice."
Peter Quill flied around the battlefield, firing his quad blasters at every enemy that came into his view. He landed in what appeared to be a destroyed room and fought off a group of Sakaarans. He kicked one of them right in the head before finding himself in a melee combat with a pair of them. He managed to kick one of them away which gave him an opportunity to blast him, which he quickly used, getting rid of his opponent. He attemped to fight back the last one of them but at one point of this fight, he ended up hitting the ground. The Sakaaran tried to use the advantage of the opportunity that was given to him and tried to send a blow at Star-Lord that would most likely kill him, but unfortunely for him, but fortunely for Quill, he was shot right in the back.
The lifeless body of a Sakaaran fell right on top of Star-Lord who pushed it off him. He turned around and his eyes froze upon seeing a certain Zehoberian warrior in the distance. He pressed the left side of his mask, making it disappear from his face, revealing his shocked expression.
His eyes were not leaving the person he just spotted, "Gamora?" He got himself back on his feet and slowly walked over to her. His and her eyes not leaving each other as he spoke up to her again, "I thought I lost you."
Quill raised his hand and gave her a comforting rub on her cheek, only for his hand to get caught in a tightening grip of Gamora who strangely for Quill was actually looking offended for what he just did. He grunted in pain as Gamora shot her knee upward and kicked him straight in his sensitive area.
"Don't. Touch. Me." She told him as he fell on the ground.
Star-Lord grabbed his nether regions and pointed at her while Nebula stopped right next to Gamora, "You missed the first time, then you got them both the second time."
"This is the one?" Gamora asked as she turned her gaze to Nebula, "Seriously?"
"The choices were him or a tree." Nebula answered.
Quill simply lookied at both of them in confusion, trying to figure out what just happened. Stephen Strange hovered above the ground as a group of Chitauri was caught in his magic. He didn't kill them shorty after, because there was somethig else in his mind for this unfortunate group of alien. Mystical purple portals appeared right under them and the alien were sent right through them as he landed on the ground in a place where the group of Chitauri once stood. He then turned around to face Stark and Peridot before they even landed. Almost like he knew it was going to happen and simply waited for it. Their mask disappeared, revealing their faces faces to the Sorcerer Supreme. Strange met their eyes, remained silent, and let Tony and Peridot ask the question he knew was bugging their mind.
"Hey. You said one out of 14 million, we win, yeah?" Tony asked.
"Please, tell us this is it." Peridot added. It had to be the one where they win. It just had to...
"If I tell you what happens. It won't happen." Strange replied.
Peridot and Tony gave him nod of their heads in response, as the latter said, "You better be right."
Even after Iron Man and Iron Gem turned away and took off into the air again, Strange's eyes never left them. His gaze was mostly focused on Tony, as if he wanted to say something more to the Iron Avenger, but he knew he couldn't. All he could do was just to make sure everything was going to play out exactly like the way it suppose to. He would ensure their victory was achieved.
No one was able to stood in Ebony Maw's way as the member of the Black Order was making his way through the battlefield. Some of his father enemies were actually that naive and thought that they could stand a chance against him. Two Ravangers were one of them, but unfortunely for them they were quick to join the likes of many other people that tried to try their luck against the Maw and paid the greatest price for it. The member of the Black Order shot his hands forward and created a tower of rock and dirt that completely rained down them.
The two Ravagers weren't fortunate and didn't cover their eyes in time. The flying dirt and sand completely blinked their vision, which the Maw quickly used. He lifted up a few rocks from the ground and turned them into sharpened point. He pointed his index fingers on both of his palms and send the points right at the two Ravagers. The points went through them like a hot knife through butter and all the Maw could do now was to watch how their lifeless bodies collapsed on the ground.
He didn't got much break from them as immediately he came across another beings willing to fight him. These beings were three gems. Crazy Lace Agate, Zebra Jasper and Lace Amethyst all rushed forward at the member of the Black Order. Ebony scoffed as his eyes caught their sight, just another beings daring to turn their weapons against him, only to fail miserably at the end. Zebra Jasper was the first one to make her way. She hid her blade in her gem for a second as picked up a large rock laying nearby and threw it right at him.
The Maw simply remained in his place, despise the fact that a large rock was just flying right at him and moved his hand to the right. The rock was deflected in the same direction he pointed at as Lace Amethyst took the led and was the closest one to him. He made sure she was going to reach him created a spike of Earth which send her flying upwards and all Zebra Jasper and Crazy Lace Agate could do was just watch how Lace Amethyst was thrown away from them.
Ebony Maw's next move came quickly and he rose forth from the earth and brought with him several jagged shards of dead Chitauri armor lying upon the rocks. He charged forward at the two gems he was left with, at least for now, he wasn't sure when Lace Amethyst was going to show up again, if she was going to show up again. He extended his right hand forward and half of everything he was carrying behind his back was thrown at Crazy Lace Agate, aware of the gem being a fusion because of the two gems she had on her face and wanted to make sure she wasn't going to interrupt him in what he had planned for her friend.
Crazy Lace hid her blades into her gems and brought her hands over her face to shield herself from the strike and Zebra Jasper wanted to use the fact that the Maw had his attention focused on her and charged forward at him, making sure to take her blade out of her gem before that, to take care of him, unaware that it was something he wanted her to do.
She suddenly found herself raised from the ground as the Maw used his other hand to form a tower of rock and dirt, the same one he used to take care of the two Ravagers just a moment ago. The tower began moving towards the member of the Black Order who slapped his hands together. Zebra Jasper could find herself letting out a gasp as she could feel how the tower began clenching itself on her, and more importantly her gem. She gritted her teeth in pain as she could feel how her gem was slowly started cracking, and seeing this, Crazy Lace Agate tried to do something to save her, but it was already too late to do anything. Zebra's Jasper gem was completely cracked and the last thing she ever saw was Ebony Maw staring at her. But the Maw wasn't done with Zebra Jasper or rather what was left of her. He turned the remains of her gem into sharpened points and send it right at Crazy Lace Agate who could only watch in horror how her friends remains were turned into a weapon which was send right at her.
She brought her hand over her face as she should feel how the remains of Zebra's Jasper gem hit her hand. She glanced down at what remained of her friend, her fellow co-worker at Funland, and the first thing she did after seeing this was charging right at the person who just shattered her friend. She leaped herself up and punched the member of the Black Order right in his chin. As much as Ebony Maw hated to admit it, he had to give her that. She was actually the first being to land a hit on him since this battle started. Then, Crazy Lace Agate landed right on the ground and quickly moved over to the rock Zebra Jasper threw at the member of the Black Order. She used this occasion of the Maw stumbling back a bit because of her punch and threw it right at him, but unfortunely for her, this attack didn't really paid off as Ebony simply held out his hand and cut the rock into two pieces before it could reach him.
The member of the Black Order landed on the ground and frowned at the view of a fusion in front of him. Crazy Lace simply glared at him as her blades appeared back in her palms. She threw the one she wielded in her left hand, making the Maw bring his hand in front of him with intention of moving it away from him. This was exactly what Crazy Lace wanted him to do. She charged forward at him with her other blade in ready, but wasn't able to do anything as suddenly a spike grew right from them ground and threw her away from the Maw. She went flying backwards and landed several metres away from him, her blade flying off her hand. He then formed another spike which once again send her flying backwards. This time, the impact of the landing was so big that it made her unfuse into two gem quartez that made her fusion.
The Maw watched how Crazy Lace unfused herself and knew she wasn't going to be much of a foe right now. He floated over to the two quartez, stopping right between them. He raised his hands up to lift up the two parts of the rock that they in a form of Crazy Lace Agate threw at him. He brought his hands down and the rocks flew down right at the two gems who didn't moved away in time, and this rock was the last thing they ever saw in their lives.
It was when he heard a painful grunt from the background. He turned in the direction of the place from which the grunt came from and saw Lace Amethyst laying among the rubble. Her gem was cracked, her left feet was now replacing her right hand. The impact of landing after she was thrown away by the Maw was too strong. If she landed on her back, she probably would be able to get up and help Zebra Jasper and Crazy Lace Agate, but she landed on her chest, and more importantly her gem. She rolled herself on her back and had to watch how her friends were killed by Ebony and all she could do was now was just watch how he floated over to her, and actually spoke up to her.
"Your resistance will never work. Nothing will stop the Great Titan from getting the stones." Was what he told her as he pressed his boot right against her already damaged gem. She couldn't do anything as everything went to black, the Maw's face being the last thing she ever saw.
Ebony crushed the remains of her gem under his boot and simply floated away from them, to fulfill the task of finding the stones his father has given him and his siblings. He was unaware that Biggs Jasper, Little Larimar, Snowflake Obsidian and Bixbite saw entire fight were coming to help them but when they arrived, after having to deal with anyone from the Mad Titan's army in their way, it was already too late. Their friends were gone and their killer was nowhere to be seen in the chaos of the battlefield.
Biggs Jasper gritted her teeth in anger and could feel tears forming in her eyes but she knew there was no time to mourn their deaths. She was going to mourn their deaths once they'll win this battle and defeat the Mad Titan and his goons once and for all.
The Chitauri Titan roared as it moved one of it's gigantic claws to bring down a ship attacking it. Dozens were crushed beneath it's gigantic feets. Orange Spodumene and Ocean Jasper were barely able to avoid getting crushed by it's feet, but it didn't seem to be done with them. The Titan reached two of it's four claws towards them, and the only thing the two gems from Little Homeworld could do was running away from it as fast as they could.
It was when a certain giant Avenger came in their rescue. Giant-Man caught one it's claws headed their way. It was quickly followed by Scott letting out a growl as the Titan roared and pushed his backwards. Everyone stared at him standing his ground against the Chitauri Titan in awe, Ocean Jasper and Orange Spodumene being one of them, but he simply turned towards hem, his panic filled eyes gazing onto them. He made a quick gesture with their heads, telling them to leave and they quickly understood what he meant by that and left as fast as they could before more of them could fell as another one of the Chitauri's Titan victim.
Scott knew he had to think fast. He was barely holding back two of the Titan's claws, and the massive beast still had two more of them and was using this advantage to push him backwards. Lang was aware that it was just a matter of time before he'd be knocked down by the Chitauri Titan and who knows that would happen to him after that. His feet were already skidding several metres backwards. It was when an idea appeared in his mind. He knew it was risky one but nothing else was coming to his mind. He focused his entire attention of one the Titan's claws and moved his right hand to join the left one on it's right left claw. He used all the strenght he had and twisted it fiercely.
A sickening snap broke out, the Titan screeching in response to its broken claw. It made the Titan pull away, giving Scott a much needed break to take a breath. He send a punch right at the Titan's shoulder but he only managed to knock the beast a few metres backwards. The Titan's response to this attack was quick. Despise having one it's claws broken just a moment ago, the Titan used the one placed right under the broken one and striked Scott's left side and sending clear across the battlegrounds.
The Titan roared again and it moved towards Scott who knew he wasn't going to last long if he was alone. He shouted to his comms, "I need help!"
The Titan slammed its fist right at Lang who dodged to the side, noting how low the beast's head was to earth. He struck his fist against the Titan's face and earned a painful cry from it. It recovered quickly, continuing to swipe and slash and grab at the Giant-Man.
It was when the help came in as many way as it could at this moment.
Falcon came flying from it's side, unloading everything he had onto the Chitauri Titan, roaring every moment as he did so. The Titan moved it's claw towards him, but wasn't able to grab him as it was met with a loud explosion as War Machine appeared right behind it. James Rhodes used everything his suit had to offer and onloaded it at the Chitauri Titan. The Titan roared in pain as it could feel how some of it's armor fell from it's back. Doctor Strange was the next one to appear. Stephen shot out his palms, his fingers twisting and Eldritch Magic flowing through him to control the ground under the Titan. From that ground, several Eldritch Whips emerged and wrapped around the Titan's limbs, keeping it in one place, unable to break free.
It roared as more Avengers joined the assault. The ground beneath the Titan started to crack as the beast squirmed. Wanda Maximoff knew it was just a matter of time before it would break itself from Strange's grasp. She shot her right hand forward letting out a stream of red energy flow from her fingertips. It wrapped itself around the Titan's right hand, the beast roared when it realized it was unable to move it even an inch. Wanda gritted her teeth, being under so much pressure, but still held her ground. Lapis Lazuli and Freckled Lapis hovered right above her, the two blue gems holding her hands forward and water chains grabbed each one of it's claws, including the broken one and despise being in as much pressure as Wanda , the two of them held their ground against the massive Chitauri. The two blue gems send themselves a quick look, their last meeting was not a pleasant one but they knew there was no time for this.
The Chitauri Titan tried to break itself from their grasp, but it was now unable to even move it's claws. Iron Man, Rescue and Iron Gem came flying from behind it as the three iron Avengers stopped right in front of the Titan. The trio was joined by James Rhodes and the four Iron Avengers faced the Chitauri Titan. Rhodey once again unloaded everything he had onto the Titan and had his entire arsenal focused on the broken claw while the others took care of it's other claws. Six panels emerged from the back of Tony, Pepper and Peridot, each equipped with a repulsor at the end. Stream of energy fired from each one of the repulsors at the claw they chose to take care of.
The massive Chitauri roared in pain as it could feel how the repulsors blasts were burning through his claws. The roar became louder when he felt his broken arm was blown off by one fo the rockets send by James Rhodes who then helped Falcon and focused his entire attention on taking out the plate armor on it's chest. Not much time had to pass until each one of it's claws was ripped off from it's body. Tony, Pepper and Peridot all watched how the task they given themselves was fulfilled but there wasn't any time for them to catch a break. They focused their blasts from their repulsors right on the chest of the Chitauri Titan and more importantly it's armor which was alreadyheavily damaged by Falcon and War Machine, well mostly by the latter but it didn't change the fact that Falcon also did some damage to the Titan.
It was just matter of time it's armor on it's chest was completely destroyed and it's pieces joined the Titan 's claws on the ground. It was when the group of Avengers made their last move to take out Chitauri Titan. Lapis and Freckled Lapis shared a quick look with each other, knowing what they should do next as they didn't had to hold it's claws with their power anymore. They combined their powers to form a giant harpoon. They shot their hands forward and a harpoon was sent right at the massive Chitauri It seemed like it was enough for this Chitauri Titan. The beast gave it's last scream as it's massive body collapsed on the ground. It's body made a powerful shock wave and earthquake across all the battlefield as it collided with the ground.
The Wakandan warriors, Asgardians and gems had little success going against Cull Obsidian's chained hammer. The largest member of the Black Order either send them flying or punched them into the ground. He gritted his teeth in frustation as he had to deal with combined forces of his father enemies, and his frustation grew even bigger when he spotted two large gems standing in his way. Well, technically one of them wasn't as large as the other one because she used limb enhancers to move around. Demantoid and Pyrope glared at the member fo the Black Order before them and he returned the glare. It was just a moment before Pyrope threw her handfield fan as if it was boomerang it hit Obsidian like in the back before the weapon went back to it's owner.
It was when Demantoid made her move and her was prism floating behind her back glowed. She and Pyrope had gotten their prisms back for this battle, and they became quite handy. Her left hand glowed and green beam came out it, but instead of heading straight for Cull, it headed for a rock laying in the distance and picked it up. The rock hit Obsidian right in his back, making him stumble a few steps forward. Pyrope used her own prism to create two copies of herself which confused the largest member of the Black Order a bit but this feeling quickly wore off when he he saw both hands of Demantoid's limb enhancers glowed and send a blast in his way, which hit him and made him stumble back a bit, but it wasn't over, shorty after Pyrope used her hadfield fan to create a small tornado which was sent his way. He didn't had time to avoid it and it sent him flying backwards.
He growled as he got himself back on his feet. He gripped his hammer and Demantoid's and Pyrope's eyes shot open in suprise when they saw how his hammer detached itself and went flying right at them. Pyrope ducked in time in but Demantoid wasn't as fortunate and was sent stumbling backwards. Cull's hammer went back to it's owner before he charged at Pyrope who quickly reacted to it and send her holographic copies of herself at him to keep him busy even if it would last just a moment. Obsidian swung his hammer around at her projection, quickly making them disappear while Pyrope used her dress to float herself to another place where she was quickly joined by Demantoid.
They quickly striked back. Pyrope formed another small tornado and send it right at Cull which was quickly followed by her throwing her handfield fan at him while Demantoid moved towards Obsidian. Cull's hammer changed into a shield which was used by him to deflect the tornado but he wasn't that lucky with handfield fan which hit him straight in his back before it went back to it's owner. The largest member of the Black Order didn't had a second to take a breath as he could feel how another rock hit him on his side, which was followed by Demantoid firing a blast from her right hand as the circled around him. He was fighting on two fronts and knew he had to think quickly to come out of this situation.
His shield protected him from Demantoid's every attack but it didn't do anything with Pyrope's case. It was when an idea came into his mind. He picked up the rock which was thrown at him by Demantoid and waited for the right moment until he threw it on Pyrope. He knew it was going to do much but he just needed to distract her for a second. His plan worked when Pyrope had to move aside because of it and it when the shield changed itself back into his hammer. He swung it around to deflect a blast send at him by Demantoid as she took a few steps back. He growled as he send his hammer at her, but much to her confusion hammer didn't hit. It wrapped itself around her.
Demantoid screamed as Obsidian violently spined her around. It lasted a moment before he finally let go off her and send her flying several metres away from him and Pyrope. The impact of the landing heavily damaged her limb enhancers but it wasn't over. Her prism didn't followed her in time and it was grabbed by Obsidian who threw it on the ground and squised it with his boot. It was when her already damaged limb enhancers disappeared. She didn't stand up, she just layed there, defeated.
Pyrope gasped, seeing how she was now left alone with him and knew she had to think fast. Her prism glowed and three projection of herself appeared before him. Cull gritted his teeth in frustation as he waved her hammer around, destroying each one of the projections, until Pyrope used another one of her tricks and send another small tornado at him, but he simply changed his hammer back into a shield to protect himself from it, and when it disappered, the shield quickly changed itself back into his hammer. Growing more desperate Pyrope threw her handfield fan at him, but it was quickly deflected by Cull who finally reached her and grabbed her by her throat.
He could see behind her how her prism started glowing again so he grabbed it. He threw her aside which was quickly followed by him throwing her prism on the ground. He brought his boot down on her prism, destroying it. Pyrope gasped, knowing that she made her biggest mistake again and understimated him. She quickly stand up and tried to use her dress to float herself away from him, but unfortunely for her, time wasn't on her side. Cull growled as he repeatedly drove his hammer at Pyrope who stumbled back with each hit she took until she couldn't take this anymore and finally collapsed on the ground. The last thing she ever saw was a huge hammer being brought down right at her gem.
After ending her life, Cull Obsidian heard a painful grunt which came from behind him. Demantoid was laying on the ground, defeated. He knew she wasn't much of a threat right now and saw that a Chitauri Gorilla was heading her way, so he decided to leave the Gorilla to do the rest of the work.
Demantoid watched how the largest member of the Black Order walked away, simply leaving her alone, which confused her a bit. She quickly got her answer when she turned to the left ands saw a Chitauri Gorilla heading towards her. Knowing that being completely defenseless against the Chitauri Gorilla was pretty much a death sentence to her, Demantoid began crawling away from it as fast she could, but the beast was faster than her. She almost braced herself for her demise but then something happened.
Fortunely for her, someone threw a small throwing knive right at the charging beast. She turned in the direction of the person that just threw it and much to her suprise she saw Jon Whitebound. One of the Whitebound brothers used one of the throwing knives he had on his chest just in case if he'd need it. He threw another one, and another one as his brother, Rickon started run in circles around the Gorilla, twirling his blasters every moment as he did so.
Robb used the situation that his brothers were keeping the Gorilla busy and went over to Demantoid and offered her a hand, saying, "Well, this is the situation, isn't it?"
Demantoid simply rolled her eyes at his words. Her colony actually had a history with the Whitebound tribe and it wasn't a good one, mostly because from time to time the brothers were sending their people , or were going there themselves to steal some of their weapons which they selling to the various arm dealers, which only became more frequent after Steven came to their colony.
She accepted his hand after a moment and he helped her to get back on her feet. She titled her head to see the Gorilla that would end her life if the Whitebound brothers didn't came to save her. She saw Squaridot using her left hand to hover above the beast while her other hand was firing energy right at the Gorilla. It was simply a matter of time before the beast would collaps on the ground, and this moment finally came when Hessonite leaped herself from a certain rock and placed her sword right on it's head, finishing it off.
The Gorilla's lifeless body collapsed on the ground as Hessonite took her sword out of it's head. She jumped off the beast's body and glanced over at Squaridot who landed right next to her, finally having a chance to her see her commander for the first time in years. She offered her a quick nod of her head, to which her commander nodded back.
Hessonite glanced over at Demantoid and asked, "Where's Pyrope?"
Demantoid simply shook her head and gestured towards the place where remains of Pyrope's gem layed, "We tried to kill one of his generals, he was too strong."
Hessonite sighed and shook her head, realizing that Demantoid was killed by whoever they were fighting off as her attention shifted to the Whitebound brothers, watching how Jon was taking out each one of his throwing knives out of Gorilla's back, "Whitebounds, If this was other situation..."
"I know." Jon cut her off as he came over to Demantoid, asking, "Do you have any weapon in your gem?" Demantoid shook her head as Jon sighed, handing her one of his blades, "Take it. I can handle myself with one blade."
Although a bit hesitant, Demantoid took his blade.
Clint and Amethyst had no idea how long has it been since they decided to leave their shelter in the ruins and join the battle, the time seemed to slow down since Thanos attacked them. Each of them had their weapons in ready to take out each one of Thanos' goons willing to try take the Nano Gauntlet which was held tightly in Clint's grip away from them, and it wasn't an easy task. Neither of them even had a second to catch a breath because no matter of they took down a Chitauri, Outrider, and Sakaaran on their way, more of them came.
Amethyst wrapped her whip around the legs of a Chitauri in their way and brought his down on the ground, while Clint shouted to his comms, "Cap, what do you want us to do with this damn thing?"
Steve Rogers' answer came quickly, "Get those stones as far away as possible!"
"No!" The voice shouted behind Captain America. He turned around and spotted Bruce Banner grabbing a Chitauri and throwing it clear across the battlefield. Banner approached Rogers, stating, "We need to take the stones back where they came from!"
"How?" Steve wanted to know. "Thanos destroyed the Quantum Tunnel."
"Wait!" Giant-Man declared, something coming to his mind immediately after hearing those words. He shrunk back to his human size, pulling out a pair of car keys from his suit's pocket and staringat it, "That wasn't our only time machine."
Scott pressed on the key, and a car horn and jingle echoed across the battlefield. It reached Steve Rogers. Upon hearing the familiar horn, Steve Rogers got himself on a nearby rock which was giving him a good look on the battlefield. His eyes scanned the battlefield before him. Madness of this battle filled his vision but there wasn't any car in his sight.
"Anyone see an ugly, brown van up there?!" He shouted, hoping that someone was going to hear it.
Flying over the Captain's head on her winged stallion, Valkyrie looked down at the battlegrounds, searching for what Steve needed. Eventually, she found it, frowning at the place it was in. It was far away from them, in a place where Outriders and Gorillas constantly ran down the hill. The van was simply trapped between the hordes of aliens.
"Yeah, but you're not gonna like where it's parked!" She cried out.
"Scott, how long you need to get that thing working?" Steve asked Ant-Man through his comms.
"Maybe ten minutes." Scott answered.
"Get it started. We'll get the stones to you." Steve told him.
"We're on it, cap." Hope van Dyne replied through her comms as Ant-Man turned over to her, having no idea when she got here, but he didn't minded it at all.
The pair shared a look with each other and smiled. The two's masks slid over their heads and they shrunk together. The Wasp caught Ant-Man by his arm, her wings furiously as she took them both safely across the battle, completely unseen and intended only for the van.
They flied right above Jasper who headbutted a Chitauri, making it stumble back. The alien dropped it's weapon and it landed right before Jasper's feet. She picked it up and stabbed the Chitauri right through it's chest. She was quickly approached by an Outrider who tried to jump on her but she took care of it rather quickly. She grabbed the beast before it could reach her and threw right on the ground. She brought her boot on it's head, killing it.
It was when a familiar blue gem landed in front of her. Lapis formed a wave of water to throw any Chitauri, Sakaaran and Outrider around aside and spoke up to the quartz soldier.
"You kept saying that you wanted to make Malachite up for me and get on the good terms with me?" She asked her to which Jasper nodded her head in confirmation, "You just did it."
Jasper nodded her head to that, giving her a small smile which was returned by Lapis before before taking off once again into the skies.
As if Clint's and Amethyst's mission to protect the stones wasn't hard enough, it only become worse as the time passed. They already had to face Thanos' forces willing to retrieve the Infinity Stones for their master, but when it became apparent that Thanos' forces realized they had the Stones, any Chitauri, Outrider, or Sakaaran in their view dropped whatever they were doing, and charged at the two Avengers.
Amethyst ran in front of Clint to make sure the path would be cleared for him. They checked their GPSes and saw that Lang gave the the signal of the location of the Quantum Tunnel. They had to survive to get the Nano Gauntlet to the Quantum Tunnel. Amethyst whipped forward, sending a wave of violet energy through both of her whips, creating an explosion which cleared out their path of their enemies but was it just a matter of time when more of them came. Hawkeye managed to help her. Even with his right arm wrapped around the gauntlet, his left arm still gripped his katana, and kept cutting through everything that approached him.
He barely dodged an attack from a Chitauri. He rolled and rised to his knee before firing off an arrow from his bow. It hit the alien in the center of its visor, killing the it instantly. He watched how it's lifelss body collapsed on the ground, but just a moment after a wave of Sakaarans, Chitauri, and Outriders stomped over it's lifeless body with the intention of taking the gauntlet away from the Avenger.
He and Amethyst quickly turned away from the Sakaarans, Chitauri and Outriders and began running away from them, but something went wrong for the latter as was jumped on Outrider who pinned her to the ground. Clint quickly loaded another arrow onto his bow and fired it at the Outrider holding her down, getting rid of it. Amethyst rised back on her feet and saw how many of their enemies were heading their way and knew that they eventually would reach them if they kept running. Someone had to stay behind and hold them off.
She titled her head and saw Clint's worried glance, "Go! I got this! Keep the stones safe!"
Clint only gave her a quick nod of his head and proceeded to run away. Amethyst looked around herself as she was surrounded by her enemies. She knew there was too much of them to take care of in her normal shift so she changed her shift into Purple Puma, gripping her whips tightly in her grasp. Her whips glowed violet as she formed herself into a ball and and a blue charged right at the group of her enemies, making a violet explosion around her and her enemies, killing some of them but a better portion of them still remained alive.
She glared at the as her whips began glowing violet again before whipping them at her enemies, covering her eyes at the explosion before her. When he uncovered her eyes she was immediately met with a sight of leaping Outrider. She grabbed the beast as it, despise being held back still tried to attack her, screeching every moment as it did so. Amethyst threw it on the ground and snapped it's neck by stepping on it.
She turned her gaze away from now dead Outrider and took a quick glance around her enemies. Two Sakaarans were firing their rifles at her and she swung her whip at them, taking their rifles off their grasp and making them fall backwards. Then she ducked an attack of a Chitauri and sliced it in the half. She picked up the point end of the spear off the ground just a moment after it fell on the ground and placed it right in the center of the alien's chest.
Amethyst continued swinging her whips around until she finally took care of every alien that chased her and Clint. She breathed in, finally having a chance to catch a breath. She changed herself back into her normal shift, but she didn't saw the Chitauri Gorilla coming from behind. The beast crashed her against a pile of rocks and rubble. Amethyst quickly held out her whips to protect herself from the beast. A moment later she titled her head when she heard a war cry coming from behind the Gorilla.
Carnelian jumped right on top of the Chitauri Gorilla and began stabbing it repeatedly with her small knive, not even thinking about letting go until the beast was dead. She wasn't the one only to jump on the Gorilla. Skinny Jasper, 8XG, 8XJ, and 8XL were quick to join her. All five Famethysts teamed up on this one unfortune Gorilla as it was practically pinned to the ground by the group of gems. The Famethysts proceeded to stab the beast until it gave it's one last growl and stopped moving, telling the group of gems that they finally managed to kill it. They stood up from Gorilla's lifeless corpse and each send Amethyst a quick smile and nod of their heads.
Holly Blue Agate was not that far from them. She swung her whip around and wrapped it around a single Sakaaran. The unfortunate alien screamed in pain as he was slowly grilled alive by Holly's Blue electric whip. When his grilled corpse collapsed on the ground, she turned back to Amethyst, saying.
"Go! We'll take care of the rest of them!" Was what she told her with neutral expression on her face as more gems from the human zoo surrounded her.
Amethyst just gave a quick nod of response and ran off, taking a quick look back to see Holly Blue, the Famethysts and other gems from human zoo fighting off each one of Thanos' forces that came in their way. She turned back forward herself and started running, avoiding or taking out everything in her path until her eyes caught the sight of a certain gem-human hybrid and his friend. She saw how Connie was send flying backwards and landed right before Steven's feet as they were in a middle of the fight with a group of aliens.
Steven kneeled over Connie to check if she was okay. Connie looked up at him as they grabbed each other hand. They began glowing and a second later Stevonnie emerged from the light, wielding Steven's shield in their left hand and Connie's sword in their right hand. They swung their sword at the Outrider jumping right at their head and cut it right in the half. They glared at the alien before them and from now engaged everything in their path. A Chitauri swung it's sword around at them, but none of it's attacks paid of as Stevonnie easily ducked all of them before they send it flying backwards with a firm kick.
It was quickly followed by another Chitauri but this one didn't even had a chance to move it's weapon against them as one quick precise strike sliced it in the half. Another Outrider leaped itself from the ground right at the fusion, and they avoided it's attack by putting their shield in front fo them in the exact moment when the Outrider was about to reach their face. They lifted it above their head and threw it backwards. The beast screeched as it jumped back on it's back feet and rushed towards them, but was taken out when Stevonnie moved their sword backwards and stabbed it right in it's head.
They quickly covered themselves when a Sakaaran began firing his rifle at them, but their cover didn't lasted long as they threw it right at the Sakaaran knocking him off his feet. The shield went back to it's owner as Stevonnie made her way to the Sakaaran who was slowly siing back on his feet and finished him off by stabbing him right in the middle of his chest. They were approached by another Chitauri but it's attack didn't do anything as Stevonnie knocked it's sword away with their shield, and then grabbed the alien by it's neck. They threw the Chitauri on the ground where it was finished off by a single stab in it's head.
There were just one of the many that tried their chance against Stevonnie but it always ended in the same way. Nothing could stand in Stevonnie's way. Not a single Outrider, Sakaaran or Chitauri was able to land a hit on them. They neither didn't had a chance to as they were slashed just after approaching the fusion or their attacks were blocked by their shield. They eventually had to back down a bit and cover themselves from the attack from the above which came from Leviathan, or Levianthan Driller, or Necrocraft, or starship, or chariot.
They turned their attention to a lifeless body of a Chitauri collapsing on the ground and it was when Amethyst came into their view.
Amethyst smiled as rushed over to them, giving Stevonnie the tightest hug she has ever given, "You're here! I can't believe you're here!"
Stevonnie returned her hug but the reunion was interrupted when a horrendous scream echoeded behind them. They turned around saw one of the Chitauri Titans walking on it's four claws just several metres away from them. The beast screamed as a familiar of plasma hit it right in one of it's claws. Stevonnie and Amethyst instantly knew who it was as they started to make their way towards the massive Chitauri to help the others in taking in down.
Thor Odinson roared as he flew forward with Stormbreaker in ready. When the Titan appeared in his sight, he flinged the axe with resounding strength and speed. It spun with lightning striking downwards and once the axe made its impact across the Titan's head, the beast moved to the side with an agonizing cry. It looked up and saw how Stormbreaker flied back into the hand of Thor. The beast roared at the son of Odin.
Steve Rogers gritted his teeth as he lined his arm back up sent a bolt of lightning directed right at his opponent. The Titan didn't had a chance to do anyting about it as the lightning struck it's armored back while Shi'ra made circles around the Chitauri Titan, firing off her plasma casters at the beast, eventually having to kill something in her way with her spear. Her eyes caught the sight of Spinel and Azurite running towards them.
Spinel and Azurite knew they wouldn't do much to the Chitauri Titan in their normal so they grabbed each other hands and a moment later their fusion Lolite appeared on the battlefield. The upper part of fusion wielded Azurite's claws while the lower part wielded Spinel's scythe. Lolite extended her limbs and moved right under the stomach of the Chitauri Titan, slicing the claws it used to move around, making the beast grunt the pain it was receiving from it's lower parts. The fusion of Azurite and Spinel moved past Shi'ra and send her a smirk, to which the Kratai smirked back.
Garnet and Pearl came shorty after. They moved in different directions instantly after arriving. Garnet began making her place towards once place on the side of the Chitauri Titan while Pearl, just like Shi'ra started making circles around it, firing projectiles from her spear. She knew projectiles from her spear wasn't doing much work but it still seemed like a good distraction. At least she ran in circles around the Titan until she ran into a familiar purple gem and a familiar fusion of a human, and human gem hybrid. She helped Amethyst to get up on her feet and they send each other a quick smiles, seeing each other for the first time in five years. They would probably share a hug with each other, but the situation of clashing with one fo the Chitauri Titan's wasn't the best one for it.
Thor glanced down at Captain America and the duo shared a quick nod with each other having the same plan in mind. The first Avengers twirled Mjolnir and prepared himself to threw it at the Chitauri Titan. He finally did when he saw Thor landing on the other side. He threw Mjolnir and the hammer struck the beast right in it's armor on it's back. Thor held his hand out and prepared himself to catch his hammer, but much to his confusion it moved in another direction. His eye followed the direction of his hammer and he saw something he wasn't excepting to see.
Garnet was standing next to him. What caught his attention about the fusion was the fact that she was wielding Mjolnir in her right hand.
She smirked at him as to which Thor shrugged his shoulders and rolled his eye, "Why not?"
The fusion couldn't stop smirking at him as she twirled the hammer until she threw it in the air. Mjolnir once again hit the Chitauri Titan as it flied back to Captain America. The first Avenger caught it and twirled it before throwing it once again at the Titan. Together, the first Avenger and the fusion of Ruby and Sapphire tossed the hammer back and forth to one another, dominating with it, destroying a better portion of the Chitauri's Titan armor on it's back. The armor wasn't going to hold much longer the fact that Shi'ra was still firing plasma from her plasma casters at it wasn't helping.
It was when they spotted a certain ship from Little Homeworld flying in the massive Chituari's direction. Sun Incinerator came flying right in front of the Chitauri Titan, firing blasters at the massive beast, and it was when the armor couldn't hold back and it's pieces fell off the Titan's back. They already could imagine the crew that was inside of this ship smirking after seeing how they tore off the armor off Chitauri Titan's back.
Garnet gripped Mjolnir tightly as she moved to the front of the Chitauri Titan and waited for the beast to make it's move. It lowered one of his claws, with intention of grabbing her, unaware that it was exactly what Garnet wanted. She salmmed the hammer directly into one of its lowering claw. The bone was shattered, the limb torn, and the claw flying free to come crashing to the earth below. The Titan cried in agony.
It was when the God of Thunder appeared hovering right above Garnet. She threw Mjolnir up to the God of Thunder, shouting, "Thor!"
Thor grabbed his hammer in the air and slammed Mjolnir into its bottom jaw. The Chitauri Titan let out a bellowing roar, as blood dripped from it's jaw, which was followed by some teeth falling off.
Garnet turned to Lolite, yelling, "Now, Lolite!"
Lolite nodded her head as she rushed over to the Chitauri Titan while Thor threw Mjolnir back to the first Avenger. She used the spinel part of herself to extended her limbs and wrapped herself around the Chitauri Titan. It was when Lolite finally let go off the Titan and went circling around his entire body. The Chitauri Titan roared in pain as the feeling of the claws and scythe piercing through it's skin overcame it's entire body.
Lolite landed back on the ground next to Shi'ra, unfusing herself back into Azurite and Spinel just a moment after she did.
"It's almost dead!" Azurite stated.
"Someone just needs to finish it off!" Spinel added shorty after.
Garnet, Amethyst and Pearl knew what they to do after hearing Spinel's words. They grabbed each other hands as they began glowing before a massive fusion named Alexandrite appeared right in front of the Chitauri Titan. Alexandrite roared as she leaped herself up to be able to at least face the massive Chitauri in front her. She breathed in and prepared herself for her strike. It finally came when she opened her mouth and breathed fire right at the Chituari Titan. The beast was engulfed in flames and roared in pain as flames started practically eating it. It was just a matter of time before it's burning corpse would collaps on the ground, and when it finally did, Alexandrite already unfused herself into Garnet, Pearl and Amethyst, and all of them just watched the burning corpse of a Chitauri Titan.
Lars and his entire crew gave a quick cheers as they watched how the second Chitauri Titan was taken care off but their joy was quickly their joy was quickly replaced with confusion when they heard a loud roar which came from behind them. They turned back in the direction of the noise and jumped in their seats once they heard that something was drilling through their ship. None of them had a chance to say anything as the Leviathan Driller it cut their ship into two separate parts, barely missing Flourite who breathed a sigh of relief as the Leviathan Driller flew through the ship right in front of her eyes. She knew that it wasn't a moment of relief because their ship was cut into two parts, but the Driller would have definitely shatter her and every gem that was a part of her fusion.
Her relief was short lived as the part of the ship she and the rest of the crew was in began falling down. Everyone grabbed onto something in their ship as it's remains landed on the ground along with them, the impact of the landing knocking them on the floor. Lars groaned as he got himself back on his feet, making sure to grab his sword. He glanced around the remains of his ship to see how his crew was doing after this rather fatal landing.
"What happened?" Rhodonite asked, the fusion rubbing the back of her head.
Padparadscha slowly got herself back on her feet, stating, "I predict that something is going to drill through our ship!"
"What about Fluorite?" One of the Rutile Twins asked.
They all ran to the edge of this part of their ship and saw how Fluorite, and rather every gem that made her fusion crawled out the lower part of this part of their ship. They all send each other a nod. Their ship may have been destroyed but all of them made it out alive from the crash, but their relief caused by all of them surviving the crash was short lived when they saw that a swarm of Outriders and Chitauri was heading towards them.
They all prepared themselves for the confrontation.
Lars readied his sword, Rhodonite took out her own blades out of her gems, the left Rutile Twin took out a shield while the right one took out a sword, and each one of Fluorite's gems decided to remain unfuse, at least for now and took their own weapon. All six gems had different weapons, some of them had small knives, some of them had spear, or some of them had swords. Padparadscha was the only one who didn't had any weapon with her, but her crew was going to make sure to protect her for as long as they will be able to.
Fortunely for them help came in a form of a group of Ravagers. Kraglin Obfonteri was one of them. He fired his gun at everything that came into his view, which was followed by his fellow Ravagers. Howard the Duck was with them. He hopped onto the remains of Lars' ship and aimed his LMG at the swarm of charging Outriders. Lars hopped off the ruins of his ship and ran over to Kraglin and some other Ravager. He kicked an Outriders right in it's head, knocking it on it's back before he brought his sword right on it's stomach, ending the beasts' life. He glanced around his crew to see the Rutile Twins blocking a swing of a sword from a Chitauri before ending it's life, or Rhodonite stabbing a Chitauri right through it's chest.
Thanos has come across who were refusing to accept his gift and tried to resist before but this was something else. In his entire life has never came across a resistance that was this huge. The Mad Titan has never ever seen the universe turn against him. He thought it was impossible, and yet here he was, caught in the middle of a battle the universe brought against him and his destiny. He was approached by many, in all forms, each one of them having only one intention of killing the Mad Titan once and for all. Thanos' response to their attempts was always the same. Quick slice or stab ended their lives faster than they even realized.
But his focus wasn't on them. It was on the battlegrounds. His eyes scanned them in order of finding the Infinity Stones, but they were nowhere to be found in the chaos of this battle. There was simply no place for them. He swung his behind him and send a charging sorcener flying backwards. He paid no attention to him. He casted his eyes across the burning battlegrounds.
He finally asked, "Where's Nebula?"
Corvus Glaive poofed a Bismuth attacking him, before stepping on her gem, shattering her, "She's not responding."
The Maw turned towards his master and pointed in one direction, "Sire!"
Thanos' eyes followed the direction Ebony was pointing at and his eyes caught the sight of single Avenger. Clint Barton sprinted as quick as his feet could carry him, doing his best to avoid laser blasts and aliens charging at him from all directions. He barely dodged an attack from a Chitauri before he sliced his blade through it's chest, which was quickly followed him taking care off other Chituari which happened to the standing nearby.
He rolled and rised to his knee before firing off an arrow from his bow. It hit the alien in the center of its visor, killing the it instantly. He watched how it's lifelss body collapsed on the ground. He then turned around and a saw a huge group of alien heading his way with two Gorilla's leading them. Luckily for him, just a second after spotting this huge group of alien a familiar black suit landed right between them, slamming it's fist on the ground. It created a shock wave which blew every alien aside.
"Clint!" Black Panther's mask disappeared from T'Challa's face, "Give it to me!"
Barton shared a quick look with Wakandan king before handing the Nano Gauntlet to him. Instantly after aquring the Nano Gauntlet, T'Challa made a run for it. He used everything his Black Panther suit had to offer, his enhanced speed, and strength to his own advantage as he slashed and kicked and punched his way through the battlefield. He leaped himself of a piece of rubble, driving his foot into the face a charging Chitauri.
He rolled himself forward and slashed a nearest Outrider, ripping through it's leg. Nothing from Thanos' army was able to come against his vibranium claws. His suit was doing it's job as well. It absorbed the bolts of the Sakaaran rifle and Chitauri's rifles. Any Outrider that got lucky enough and managed to land a hit on him was met with nothing in the result of it's strike. T'Challa hopped over a Sakaaran firing at him and dug his claws into the alien's head and threw it straight to the ground.
He proceeded forward and the next wave of aliens was met with him leaping from a rock and striking the ground with a feral punch. The shock wave knocked his every enemy and was about to continue with the path he just cleared for himself but just a moment after hos got himself back on his feet and sword came spinning forward hit him in the side of his head. Black Panther grunted as he collapsed on the ground, dropping the gauntlet.
He turned to see from where this sword came from and saw it spinning violently back and return to the Mad Titan. Thanos caught his blade and reared it back as he charged at the lone Avenger before him wielding the Nano Gauntlet. T'Challa slowly got himself back on his feet, grasping the gauntlet tightly as he watched how the Mad Titan was getting closer to him and stones..
The Dark Lord was stopped when an orange blur charged right into him. He stumbled back one step backwards when his eye caught the sight of the person that just charged into him. It was Jasper, and she wasn't alone. Peter Quill stood next to her, gripping his blasters and glaring behind his mask.
Jasper and Star-Lord were joined by someone else when a familiar voice shouted, "THANOS!"
The Mad Titan turned around to see Drax the Destroyer sliding under his leg forward towards Jasper and Peter Quill. He steadied himself with knives still drawn and looked at them, "Jasper, Peter. I will aid you."
Jasper nodded her head at him, her eyes which were burning with hate never left theMad Titan as she spoke up to him, "We're done with you."
Thanos' answer came quickly as he took a step towards them, "I don't even know who you are."
"What about me?" A new voice came from the other side. It was cold. He turned around and saw Scarlet Witch land before him. As she looked up at him, her palms were covered in crimson power. Her eyes were glowing in red, "You took everything from me."
Peter Quill was the one who started their assault. He shot out his quad blasters, firing madly at the Mad Titan and getting several shots at him, but none of them did anything as Thanos' armor blocked all of the hits. Drax and Jasper used the situation that Thanos had his attention focused on Star-Lord and charged at him. Drax attacked his knee, striking his abdomen and pushing him backwards as Jasper made her own move and headbutted him with her helmet. She and Drax alongside Quill kept attacking him from all directions, while Thanos did his best to avoid as any attacks as he could, while also trying to strike back.
It was when the group attacking him spotted Wanda Maximoff rising up from the ground. Her eyes and palms glowing red as she lifted up stones and debris. Ths was the signal for Quill, Drax and Jasper that they should move out of the way. When they moved out of her way, giving the signals to start her her attack. She threw the stones and debris right at the Mad Titan who attempted to make his way towards her only to be pushed back by the debris she threw on him. He used his sword to shield himself from everything she threw on him.
The Scarlet Witch broke the distance between them and made sure Thanos would feel every inch of her anger. They clashed with each other as Wanda used her psionic energy as both defensive and offensive means gainst the Mad Titan's strength and speed. The Mad TItan swung his sword, intending to slash her with it as she blocked the entire blade with her palms, the red energy being as some sort of shield. When she striked back she shot out her energy at the Mad Titan and struck him in his armor and other parts of his body that were exposed.
He slammed his sword right on top fo her to which she responded with raising her hands and catching his entire sword. Thanos put more pressure on his sword, but it was no use. Wanda pursed her lips, not thinking about letting his blade go.
It was when she made a gesture with her head for the others to join the assault. Everyone immediately reacted to that. Quill shot back on his feet, heading into the skies again. He started firing his blasters at the Mad TItan from the above. while Jasper and Drax delivered a set of devasting punches and kicks across Thanos' face and body as the Mad Titan was practically pinned to this one position and was receiving attacks from every position, even though he hated to admit that to himself.
Thanos growled, it was so loud that probably the entire battlefield heard him, finally having enough of Wanda, Jasper, Drax and Quill. He violently swung his sword around, making Wanda take a step back to avoid getting hit by it as Thanos blocked Jasper's hit with his armored forearm and send her stumbling backwards with a powerful punch directed right in her chest. He gritted his teeth as he blocked Drax's strikes before grabbing the Destroyer by his arm. He screamed as he spinned his around and threw him right at Peter Quill. The two Guardians crashed into another, their bodies flying away from Wanda's and Jasper's sight.
The Mad Titan saw Wanda Maximoff before him again. She shot her hands forward, the blast of psionic energy shooting from them. It struck Thanos right in his chest and it made stumble several feet backwards. He grunted as he watched how she moved towards him, with the same psionic energy covering her fists. She screamed on top of her lungs as she proceeded to make her way towards him.
This was exactly what he needed her to do. He just waited until she was inches away from him and punched her with his free hand send her flying backwards into a pile of rocks and rubble. She tried to stand up, but failed.
He already had dealt with Wanda, Quill and Drax, at least for now, and it left him with only one opponent left to take care of. The orange quartz soldier roared as she moved to punch him right across his face. and when her fist collided with his face. She gritted her teeth as she send a series of powerful punches across his entire body, making him stumble back with each hit he took, but it was just a matter of time before he'd make his move against her.
In the exact moment when she moved her head to heabutt him with her helmet, he moved his sword upwards and blocked her strike with it. Jasper's helmet struck his sword. She took one step backwards as Thanos send a powerful punch at her with his free hand, making her stumble backwards. She looked at him just mere seconds before he struck her with his sword and send her flying away from him. The orange quartz crashed into the rubble, and didn't stand up.
He breathed in as he finally had dealt with this entire group.
He looked around and saw that Black Panther and the Nano Gauntlet were nowhere to be seen. King T'Challa used the opportunity that was given to him by Wanda, Jasper, Quill and Drax, Black Panther shot back on his feet the moment Thanos started fighting with the four of them with the Nano Gauntlet held tightly in his grasp.
He didn't made it far. He suddenly found himself and stones lifted from the ground in a tower of dirt and rocks. He looked around himself and saw Ebony Maw in the distance, floating in his own tower with only one intention of taking the gauntlet away from him. The Maw brought his hands to himself as T'Challa's tower began moving towards the member of the Black Order.
He looked around, unable to leave this tower and saw Peter Parker swinging over to him, yelling to him, "I got it!"
"Take it!" T'Challa shouted as he threw the gauntlet to Spider-Man.
Peter caught the Nano Gauntlet into his weebs and landed right on top of an Outrider.
It was when he spotted a bright light coming from the sky, and it was growing bigger with each second.
The young Avenger touched his comms and called out, "Guys! Is it just me or is something coming here?"
It was just a moment before a large ship that looked like a person and it's various body parts were painted in different colors came into everyone's view.
It hovered above the ground and three large figures emerged from it.
The Diamonds have arrived...
-----
Just imagine Greg's and Connie's parents faces when their children tell them about all of this...
The first part of the final battle is done! As you can see I did a few changes from the movie, like Cull Obsidian was not killed right after the final battle started, or Wanda didn't made Thanos call out to Corvus to rain fire (someone else is going to get this moment in the next chapter)
