Dinggggg

The button makes a strange noise. After my nap, I ate the plate of food that was sitting on the nightstand. An apple, and a sandwich with peanut butter on it. Then I thought. Might as well hear what they have to say.

Iron Man comes into the room. But he's out of his armor, so his name is Stark.

"Uggg. I'm not going to talk if he's in here." I stare-glare at the mirror by the door.

"What? What did I do to you?" He glares at me.

"Oh, not much, just killed my parents by being a rude self-absorbed d!ck.(A/N sorry)"

"Wha-" Captain America comes into the room and pushes Stark out.

"Hello. My name is Steve."

"Your name is Steve?"

"Yeah. I thought you knew that."

"No. I only know Stark's name."

"Oh. Um, well, Hulk is Dr. Bruce Banner, Black Widow is named Natasha Romanoff, I am Steve Rogers, the guy who brought you here is named Clint Barton. Um, Thor is named Thor. So, uh, what's your birthday?" I'm confused. The Avengers are not the mean, rude, evil people HYDRA painted them as.

"September eighth(Muffins birthday but you don't know her so THERE). Um, why did you take me here?"

"We need to know some stuff about Ultron. What's your favorite color?"

"Black."

"Black?"

"Do you want me to say 'Oh I LiKe PiNk!'"

"Wha- no! I mean, black isn't normally a favorite color. My favorite color is blue."

"OK, then. What do you want to know about Ultron? I don't know everything. He mostly talked to my sister. But he did stare at this weird rock. This one- the one on the string." I lift my purple cord with the black stone attached to it. One of the men in black suits touched it and ran away screaming. I never saw him again.

"Wait. Before you tell us, there's some stuff you need to know. Look into my mind. I'm thinking it right now." He completely ignores the necklace, instead making memories surface and I can almost hear and feel the way the pop into my head. One time one of the other prisoners- volunteers asked what it sounded like. I said it sounded like the popcorn when it was being made over our stove. When Mama sang to us, before Papa got home, and when he did get home, he played hide and seek with us, before we presented him with the popcorn, fresh.

He always acted as though he was surprised, as if he didn't hear the kettle pop and crackle.

We made popcorn the night they died.

~~~~~~Flashback: Steve Rogers 1st person POV~~~~~~

"I had to... Kill the other guy. He was a good guy. But in the real world, we're faced with ugly choices." The robot said.

"Ultron?" Bruce whispered in disbelief. What the Hellman's mayonnaise is Ultron?

"In the flesh. Or, no, not yet. But I have plans for that. I was given a good hand, and I created the game. I will win this round. Or, I suppose, it is the only round."

"What are you doing. No, better question, what game are we talking about?" I put on my menacing Captain America face and voice.

"The Avengers Extinction. Oh, and I suppose the extinction of the human race altogether."

~~~~~~~~~~End of flashback~~~~~~~~~~

"Ultron was using us?" I whisper.

"Yes. I'm sorry."

Steve Kris

No, it's fine.

What is this?

Sorry. I go into telepathy accidentally when I am sad, scared, or angry.

I've tried contacting Wanda and Pietro, but I can't. Something is blocking their minds. Sorry, they're my siblings. But I guess you knew that...

We'll find them. I promise.

Thanks.

"So... Are you going to talk or just stare into each others eyes...?" A voice, obviously Starks, calls out.

I sit back in the chair, my head in my hands, and wait. Eventually, I drift off into 

~~~~~~~Earlier Third Person POV~~~~~~~

"I have a safe house. Um, Lauraaaa! I have guestsss!" A heavily pregnant woman walks into the room.

"This is... An agent of some kind." Tony Stark is obviously confused.

"Um, hi. I'm Laura Ann Barton. Clint's sister. Hey, Natasha. Have you and Clint...?"

"No! No! I-uh... Um... NATASHAANDIAREDATING."

"English, please." Tony looks confused. It's a first.

"This weirdo and I are dating." Natasha says while picking at her nails with a knife from who knows where.

Stark laughs, saying, "What did he really say?"

"I, uh, said we were dating?" Clint blinked multiple times.

"FINNALY. YOU TOLD THEM." Steve collapsed face-first onto the couch, obviously tired from fighting the twins, carrying Kristal, and seeing visions of- of what could have been with Peggy, if he hadn't gotten on the plane and crashed it into the ocean to save millions. 

" Steve knew?" Laura looked mildly amused.

"What are we talking about?" Thor had walked into the room, after landing near the pond next to the house to clean off his armor.

~~~~~~Kristal Maximoff First Person POV~~~~~~~

"Mama, why do the scary men make such a loud noise? Why does Papa come home with a sad face every ni-nite? Nnnnig-night! I did it, Mama!" My first year teacher, Miss Onavhe, had been giving us harder picture books to read, and one word had been hard to pronounce.

"Great job, Kristal! (I always have to go back and look if its al or el.) In answer to your previous question, the 'scary men'  are making a.. space portal! And Papa looks sad because he doesn't get to go in it."

"Oki! Etro! Where's the Wanda monster!?" My older brother looks around, slowly stepping down from the couch, when suddenly a hand reaches out from under the couch, grabs his ankle, and he begins to fake scream. 

"The Wanda monster! She's here! Run! Its too late for me!" 

☣TRIGGER WARNING: BLOOD AND GORE☣

Mama laughs and ruffles Etro's hair. He took a bath today, and his hair is still damp. Pieces of fuzz from the couch he was jumping one drift through the hazy light, and our old cat, Mittens, swats at a fly that's buzzing around his head. Suddenly, there's an explosion, and my parents are swept into a large sink hole. I stumble in, but somehow don't get hurt. I can see my parent's body's piled on top of a broken table, jagged pieces of wood spiked through their torsos. My mama snaps her head around, and looks at me.

"You should have gone with us. You were worth nothing." My Papa picks himself up, and I can see him glowing.

No, not glowing. Holes of varying size poke through his navy blue shirt, and suddenly, he's Pietro. He staggers towards me, and then,

I can't breathe.

The air is too thick.

And he's coming closer.

Wanda appears beside him, and I scuttle back, but my back hits a wall.

My lungs don't work anymore.

Jagged pieces of- stuff fly towards me, pinning me, poking me, and then suddenly, I'm back in Strucker's lab.

He stands over me as he dissects me, and I somehow know that its a dream, but I can't wake up. The world shifts and I find myself in a void.

The world is spinning and I'm hot and cold at the same time. I pinch myself and-

It hurts. I feel like I'm going to puke, and the gem on the cord around my neck grows hot.

"Hello, Keeper."

The end

Why are you still here?

Seriously!

OK, I will continue.

The man that stood behind me was tall, probably around 5'11. His skin was a cocoa brown, and his eyes were-

His eyes had no whites.

"Who are you?" My voice was higher than normal, and the tips of my hair floated around my neck. I was dressed in a black dress, (dress up top) and my hands had lacy black elbow-length gloves on.

I looked like a princess.

"Ah. I forgot to introduce myself. I am Shado , the Shadow Stone. I am here to give you an.. Introduction of sorts on the necklace and stone you wear. There are seven stones in total, the space stone, the mind stone, the reality stone, the time stone, the power stone, the soul stone, and your stone, the shadow stone.

" Your stone is unique, because it is like the power stone, it has power. But not physical power, instead it has elemental powers. The person who uses it gains an elemental power. Yours happened to be shadows.

"The shadow stone is named the shadow stone because it  is vague, like shadows. I am the- well, I wouldn't call myself mortal, because mortal timeframes are normally eighty to one hundred  days. I am older than Terra, which is what the Kree, who live on Hola, call your 'Earth'. You are waking up now. If you ever need to talk, either sleep, or in dire situations, create a mind link with me. It will cause excruciating pain but... You can.... Element.... Another element..." My eyes fluttered closed, and my ears only picked up bits of the immortal's words.

I hope you enjoyed 0.6 as much as I enjoyed writing it. The Stone's true potential will be explored more in the end of part one, most of part three, and all of Soul.

Byeeeeeeeeeee!
