Ben 10 In The MCU

114:Get This Man A Shield!

The occupants of the Quinjet descend the ramp.

Pietro: (To Rhodey) Should we bow?

Rhodes: Yeah, he's a king.

Steve Rodgers: Seems like I'm always thanking you for something. (Shaking hands with T'Challa)

Bruce and Pietro bow in front of him.

Rhodes: What are you doing?

T'Challa: Uh, we don't do that here. (He dissuades with a motion of his hand) So how big of an assault can we expect?

The group begins to walk back the way it come to greet the guests.

Bruce Banner: Uh, sir, I think you can expect quite a big assault.

Steve Rodgers: How we looking?

T'Challa: You will have my King's Guard, the Border Tribe, the Dora Milaje, and...

Bucky: (Walking forward toward Steve) A semi-stable, 100-year-old man.

The two friends share a hug.

Steve: How you been, Buck?

Bucky: Uh, not bad, for the end of the world.

Cut to inside Shuri's lab where Vision lays on a table, while Bruce and Shuri stand over him, and the others watch. Shuri scans the stone, and studies the hologram.

Shuri: Whoa. The structure is polymorphic.

Bens leg jerks back into place making him smile.

Bruce: Right, we had to attach each neuron non-sequentially.

Shuri: Why didn't you just reprogram the synapses to work collectively?

Bruce: (Staring for a moment) Because, we didn't think of it.

Shuri: (smiling) I'm sure you did your best.

Wanda: Can you do it?

Shuri: Yes, but there are more than two trillion neurons here. One misalignment could cause a cascade of circuit failures. (To T'Challa) It will take time, brother.

Steve: How long?

Shuri: As long as you can give me.

Okoye: (Looking at a device that just alerted her) Something's entered the atmosphere.

Cut to outside where Sam and Bucky stand, looking up a the sky.

Sam: (Over the comm) Hey, Cap, we got a situation here.

The defense shield around Wakanda destroys one of the vessels entering the atmosphere.

Bucky: God, I love this place.

Sam: Yeah, don't start celebrating yet, guys. We got more incoming outside the dome.

Vision: (Appearing beside the window with the others) It's too late. We need to destroy the stone now.

Natasha: (Turning toward Vision) Vision, get your ass back on the table.

T'Challa: We will hold them off.

Steve: (To Wanda) Wanda, as soon as the stone's out of his head...you blow it to hell.

Wanda: I will.

T'Challa: Evacuate the city. Engage all defense procedures. (He points to Steve) And get this man a shield.

(God...of all people you took...why did it have to be Chadwick!!!!!)

Cut to Nidavellir where Rocket is in the pod, and Thor jumps from the roof onto the rings with a rope in his hand attached to the pod)

Rocket: I don't think you get the scientifics here. These rings are gigantic.You wanna get them moving...You're gonna need something a lot bigger to yank 'em loose.

Thor: Leave that to me.

Rocket: Leave that to you? Buddy, you're in space. All you got is a rope and a-

Thor begins to swing the pod around. He lets the pod drag him, until he stops himself by digging his feet into the ring, still holding the pod. The rings begin to move.

Thor: More power, rabbit!

Finally the star bursts into life, the rings align, and a jet of light streams through the forge.

Eitri: Well done, boy.

Thor, hanging on, looks through the pod window, at Rocket, an points to the star.

Thor: That's Nidavellir.

The iris closes and the beam of light recedes back into the star.

Eitri: Damn it.

Rocket: "Damn it."? What's "Damn it?

Eitri: The mechanism is crippled.

Thor: What?

Eitri: With the iris closed I can't heat the metal.

Thor: How long will it take to heat?

Eitri: A few minutes, maybe more. Why?

Thor: I'm gonna hold it open.

Eitri: That's suicide.

Thor: So is facing Thanos and Vilgax without that axe.
