"Yeah, look, I know that we're way outside the paygrade here. But she still isn't here, is she?" I asked. I saw Tony removed his glasses and tried to compose himself. I looked at the ground and shake my head as tears fell from my eyes.

 "No, that's my point–" Thor said.

"It can't– be undone. Or that's at least what the red floating guy had to say." Clint said. I looked at him and saw him looked at Thor. "Maybe you wanna go talk to him, okay? GO GRAB YOUR HAMMER, AND YOU GO FLY AND TALK TO HIM!" Clint said. Then, he began to grieve.

"Y/N, Nat and I fought on who's gonna sacrifice!" Clint said. I saw Tony shockingly looked at me, but I never looked at him, knowing what he's going to say. "It was supposed to be me. She sacrificed her life for that goddamn stone. She bet her life on it." Clint said.

"Clint.." I said and I went near him. He held my hand and he began to cry. "Don't blame it all on you." I said. "If she didn't kick that wall, I would still be holding her." I said and he tightly held my hand. "I partly blame myself for her death. She may have made that decision, but I never got to hold her tight..." I said and tears starts flowing down my eyes. Then, we heard Bruce shouted and threw the bench towards the lake. 

"She's not coming back. We have to make it worth it. We have to." Bruce said. Then, Clint pulled me to him and put his arm around my shoulder and rubbed my arm.

"We will." Steve said. I looked behind him and saw him stand. Then, he walked towards the building. Thor, Bruce and Clint followed him. I went near the edge of the lakeside and sat on the floor. I crossed my legs and peacefully looked at the lake. I felt Tony's presence went behind me. He didn't move to sit beside me, he just stands behind me. 

"Now that you know what happened back there, I know you're going to be mad at me.." I said and I wiped my tears. 

"I would like to." Tony said and he sighed.

"Then, go.." I said. "I can take whatever you'll say to me." I said and I stand to face him. He puts his hands on his pocket and he remained quiet. 

"I know you're mad. I'm sorry.. But, I--" I tried to explain but, words weren't on me right now. So, I just sighed and wiped my tears again. "I'm so sorry, Tony. But whatever it takes, I'm ready to sacrifice my life for everyone's safety. Specially those who I love." I said and I left him there. I walked inside the compound and immediately went to the lab. But, on the way there, I saw Rhodey went near me. 

"Hey. Have you seen Tony?" He asked. I looked behind me and saw Tony walking slowly, looking at me with his hands on his pockets. I continued to walk to the lab and I let the AI closed the curtains and locked the doors. Also, telling the AI to never let anyone in.

*TONY

I saw her walked away. Rhodes went near me with confusion on his face.

"Did you argue again?" He asked. 

"She was ready to sacrifice her life, just for the stone." I said and I felt worried and sadness conquer me. Tears cloud my eyes and I sighed.

"What do you mean?" He asked again.

"Y/N, Clint and Natasha fought each other for whoever can sacrifice their life for the Soul Stone." I began. "She fought! Rhodes.. That's not her mindset whenever she's on a mission. She don't want to sacrifice. But, why would she want??"

"Did you scream at each other?" 

"I can't scream. I can't yell. I haven't been able to say one word to her after I heard what happened in Space." 

"Tony..." 

"She told me to don't die. Yet, she's sacrificing herself. Why?" I sighed and rubbed my eyes. "I love her, buddy. I really do. But, she changed ever since this time travel happened. I don't know if she's still the woman I married to." 

"Tony, you're doubting your marriage. You're doubting your wife." 

"I'm not doubting our marriage, nor my wife. I'm confused." 

"Tony, talk to her." 

"I can't." 

"Why?" 

"I have no words to form whenever I face her, right after what I've heard." 

"Just try to talk to her later. Give her some time and space." Rhodey said and he patted my shoulder. I looked at the direction Y/N went and just sighed. "Cap wants you to fixed the stones." He said and I nodded my head and went to my lab.
