It's been a few weeks since the snap and the team hasn't stopped their search for Thanos and his big purple ass, (Y/N) is quietly sat behind the main desk in the conference room as he hasn't really said a word since that day, he has rage and guilt rushing through him and no one to let it out on, he's lost two of the people he loves and he doesn't even know if his father is okay, but that was going to answered for him shortly when a rumbling came from outside, he got up and ran outside like everyone else to see what it was and once they all got outside they looked up to see a ship no one recognised slowly landing on their front lawn, the weird thing is it seemed to be being carried by a blonde women who was on fire.

(Y/N), Steve, Rhodes, Bruce and Nat all went approached the landing ship as Pepper was already waiting for the ship to land, it was then put on the grass by the blonde fire lady, the door then opened and (Y/N) saw his father being helped by a blue women, (Y/N) didn't care as he ran and heled his father down the steps of the ship.

Once Tony was on the ground he hugged (Y/N) and (Y/N) hugged back whilst apologising over and over as tears started to leave his eyes, Tony let (Y/N) go and looked at him.

Tony: It's okay, we all failed.

Steve then came over and helped Tony as Steve took Tony towards Pepper.

Tony: Couldn't stop him.

Steve: Neither could I.

Tony: Hang on.

Tony and Steve came to a stop as they looked to each other and (Y/N) looked to the women that helped his father.

(Y/N): Thank you.

Carol: My pleasure.

The two shared a smile as (Y/N) wiped his tears away and looked back at his father to see him and Pepper hugging, they then left towards the building as (Y/N) turned and walked in the opposite direction.

Carol: Where are you going?

(Y/N) didn't answer as he just kept on going and going leaving Carol in the dark as he disappeared into the night, carol just let him be as she joined the others in the conference room as Rhodes explained the situation.

Rhodes: It's been 23 days since Thanos came to Earth.

Many holograms of people that went missing in the snap started to flash in front of them, Sam Wilson, Buck Barnes, Erik Selvig are just a few names on that list.

Nat: World governments are in pieces. The parts that are still working... are trying to take a census and it looks like he did... He did exactly what he said he was gonna do. Thanos wiped out... 50% of all living creatures.

Everyone took in what they were just told, no one noticing the absence of a symbiote.

Tony: Where is he now? Where?

Steve: We don't know. He just opened a portal and walked through.

Tony sighs in his wheelchair as he looks around the room and his eyes land of Thor, who is sat on his own beating himself up about all of this mess.

Tony: What's up with him?

Rocket: Oh, he's pissed He thinks he failed. Which, of course, he did... but there's a lot of that going around, ain't there?

Tony: Honestly, until this exact second  I thought you were a Build-A-Bear.

Rocket: Maybe I am.

Steve: We've been hunting Thanos for three weeks now. Deep space scans... and satellites, and we got nothing. Tony, you fought him. 

Tony: Who told you that? I didn't fight him.

Tony said making everyone look at him as Tony continued.

Tony: No, he wiped my face with a planet... while the Bleecker Street magician gave away the store. That's what happened. There was no fight 'cause he's not beatable.

Steve: Did he give you any clues, any coordinates, anything?

Tony: Uh...

Tony then made a hand gesture to his head that meant he wasn't told anything making Steve and Nat looked around frustrated, it was then that Nat noticed (Y/N) wasn't there anymore and grew worried, but she just thought he was either in the gym or in their room, that's pretty much the only places he goes into now.

Tony: I saw this coming a few years back. I had a vision. I didn't wanna believe it. Thought I was dreaming.

Steve: Tony, I'm gonna need you to focus.

Tony: And I needed you. As in, past tense. That trumps what you need. It's too late, buddy. Sorry.

Tony then knocks the bowl over in front of him as he gets out his chair and looks around.

Tony: You know what I need? I need a shave. And I believe I remember all youse...

Rhodes: Tony, Tony!

Rhodes try's to stop Tony from pulling the drip out of his arm as Tony is getting more and more wound up in this situation.

Tony: ... Alive and otherwise, that what we needed was a suit of armour around the world. Remember that? Whether it impacted our precious freedoms or not. That's what we needed.

Steve: Well, that didn't work out, did it?

Tony: I said we'd lose. You said, 'We'll do that together, too.' And guess what, Cap? We lost. And you weren't there. But that's what we do, right? Our best work after the fact? We're the 'Avengers.' We're the 'Avengers,' not the 'Pre-vengers.'

Rhodes: Okay.

Rhodes say as he is trying to get Tony to cool down and sit down.

Tony: Right?

Rhodes: You made your point. Just sit down, okay?

Tony: Okay. No, no, here's my point. You know what? She's great by the way...

Tony says the last part pointing to Carol as Rhodes is still trying to get Tony to sit down.

Rhodes: Tony, you're sick. Sit down.

Tony: We need you. You're new blood.

Tony says looking at Carol, but then Tony get's free of Rhodes' grip and walks towards Steve.

Tony: Bunch of tired old mules. I got nothing for you, Cap. I got no coordinates... no clues, no strategies, no options. Zero. Zip. Nada. No trust, liar.

Tony then rips off his nano tech chest piece and forces it into Steve's hand as Tony continues to let everything out.

Tony: Here, take this. You find him, you put that on... you hide.

Tony then drops to his knees as everyone looks worried.

Steve: Tony!

Tony: I'm fine. Let me... 

Tony then passes out on the floor as Steve gets him to a medical bed, Rhodes does his best to help Tony as Nat gets back to her and (Y/N)'s room to see him covered in blood, she looks at him as he takes the shirt off and wipes the blood from his body.

Nat: What happened? Where did that blood come from?

(Y/N) didn't even look at her as he replied.

(Y/N): Don't ask questions you don't want to know the answer to.

Nat walked over to him and made him look at her, she could see the pain in his eyes, he really felt bad for all of this, it didn't matter to him that he was unable to stop Thanos, what hurt him the most is that he challenged Thanos and Thanos excepted and took away nearly everything that he loves.

(Y/N) then took her hands off him and went into the bathroom to clean up, he and Venom both needed to do that and they felt so much better doing it.

Venom: We will get them back partner.

(Y/N): Don't make promises you can't keep

(Y/N) then cleaned himself up as Nat sat in their bedroom till she relished that he wasn't going to be quick and decided to give him some space, (Y/N)'s been through a lot over the past few years, but he always comes out on top, but against Thanos is different, (Y/N) may get himself killed trying to stop the mad Titan...

Nat left the room and made her way to the medical bay where Tony was taken after he collapsed, Nat entered the waiting area to see Carol and Steve standing by as Pepper sat beside the passed out Tony as Rhodes and Bruce were also in the room, Steve notices Nat's arrival and looks concerned at the worry plastered on her face.

Steve: You okay?

Nat shook her head no as Steve grew worried for another one of his friends.

Steve: What's wrong?

Nat: It's (Y/N). He's going to get himself killed.

Steve sighed sadly as there wasn't really anything he could do to help the troubled Symbiote, but before he could give any comforting words, Rhodes came out of the room Tony was lying in and spoke up.

Rhodes: Bruce gave him a sedative. He's gonna probably be out for the rest of the day.

Carol: You guys take care of him... and I'll bring him a Xorrian elixir when I come back.

Carol then started to leave the room as everyone watched her leave.

Steve: Where are you going?

Carol: To kill Thanos.

She replied without looking back, she eventually left the room leaving Nat and Steve to look at each other confused, herself, Steve and Rhodes eventually followed her and caught up to her.

Nat: Hey. You know, we usually work as a team here... and, uh...

(Y/N): We'll be the one to kill Thanos.

Everyone looked to the left to see (Y/N) standing their, he was clean as he was wearing black trouser with black boots, he was shirtless but in the process of putting on a white t shirt, Carol looked at him as if he was crazy.

Carol: You? You can't even keep your emotions in check, how are you supposed to stop Thanos.

(Y/N): Careful what you wish for star bitch or We'll do something we'll all regret.

The two were now face to face as they refused to back down, this was clearly a power play by them both but no one dared get between them as they don't know the extent of Carol's powers and they know how dangerous (Y/N) is in his current mind state.

Rhodes: It doesn't matter who kills him. Do either of you know where he is?

Carol: I know people who might.

(Y/N): I can find him.

They both replied at the same time still not breaking the stare down, this is far from the civil greeting they gave each other before, but that was then this is now.

Nebula: Don't bother.

Everyone turned to see Nebula standing alone as she seemed to be thinking about something, both Carol and (Y/N) broke the look as they looked over to her.

Nebula: I can tell you where Thanos is.

Everyone looked at her stunned and relieved at the same time, but (Y/N) still held the pissed look.

(Y/N): You've been here for what? a few hours now and you tell us this now.

Nebula just shrugged at him, which pissed him off a little bit more, but everyone made their way into the nearby conference room as Nebula told them what they wanted to hear.

Nebula: Thanos spent a long time trying to perfect me. And when he worked, he talked about his great plan. Even disassembled, I wanted to please him. I'd ask...

(Y/N): No one cares about your sob story! Tell me where Thanos is!

Everyone looked to (Y/N) after his outburst to see the black veins reappear, they were all confused and concerned as they hadn't seen this before, but it was that boosted power that helped him clean up a pest infestation.

Nat: Calm down, she's getting there.

(Y/N): Every second we waste sitting around here doing nothing Thanos could be killing more people!

Nat gave (Y/N) a look that even in his mind state he wouldn't argue with, so he just let out a frustrated roar and swiped everything off a nearby desk, once (Y/N) seemed to have clamed down as much as he was going to Steve looked to Nebula.

Steve: Go on.

Nebula: ... Where would we go once his plan was complete? And his answer was always the same. 'To the Garden'.

(Y/N): Well twist my nipple nuts and send me to Alaska, that helps us so much right now.

(Y/N) then dawned the pissed look once again as he gripped the edges of a desk he is leaning on.

(Y/N): Where is he?

(Y/N)'s force broke the table as Rocket activated a hologram and hopefully for everyone's sake, gives (Y/N) the information he wants.

Rocket: When Thanos snapped his fingers Earth became ground zero for a power surge of ridiculously cosmic proportions. No one's ever seen anything like it...

As Rocket spoke the hologram showed planet Earth and as he spoke a large pulse of power emitted from the planet and spread it's way across time and space.

Rocket: ... Until two days ago... on this planet.

The hologram then showed a pulse of power much smaller then the one that came from Earth but it still matched all the same, (Y/N) looked one with a smile as he can finally get his hands on the man that has caused him so much pain over the last few weeks, (Y/N) then zoned out of their conversation as he just pictured himself ripping Thanos' head off and allowing Venom to have a tasty snack, but he was brought back when he looked to see Thor get up form his seat and walk towards Carol.

(Y/N) and the others watched as Thor stood directly in front of her and held his left hand out calling for Stormbreaker, Stormbreaker sped passed her head but she didn't even flinch, Thor then looked at her for a moment before looking around the room.

Thor: I like this one.

He then looked to (Y/N) and pointed Stormbreaker at him.

Thor: You should be kinder to her.

(Y/N): Yeah, sure thing twinkle toes...

(Y/N) then leaped over the broken desk and started to walk around the room.

(Y/N): ... And while were at it, let's all sit in a circle and sing camp songs till were all happy inside.

Everyone then looked around the room till Steve looked to the hologram and said what everyone was thinking...

Steve: Let's go get this son of a bitch...
