With a flick of your fingers, the stone collided with the rocky cliff, exploding in golden nuggets while you waited for Thanos to show up in Vormir. You knew he would come here one day or another, but you had an immortality to wait for him.

You were the Guardian of Innocence, or in other words of the Soul Stone as you could deliver the power of the infinity stone to worthy people.

Out of sudden, the echo of voices snapped you out of your training, your telekinetic powers coming to a rest as you spotted two figures at the top of the cliff.

« Thanos » you muttered dangerously.

You watched as the Titan after debating with his conscience, threw his ' daughter' into the void, letting her fall to her death.

As you were the Keeper, you could decide who was worthy of the Stone, and the moment you saw Thanos gave up the last straw of love he had in his heart, you knew he couldn't fulfil the gauntlet.

Gamora's body slowly fell into the abyss while Thanos didn't even have the force to watch the woman die which was the perfect moment for you to strike.

You closed your eyes and muttered an incantation as a bright blue light glowed from your hands. The illusion slowly come to life, encompassing the falling body of the alien while you used at the same time your telekinesis to stop her fall. The scream left her throat as she embraced her fate, but your voice snapped her eyes open :

Red Skull played along the trick, knowing he was just the distraction while the real action was undertaken elsewhere. You sighed, released as the illusion tricked the titan who was suddenly teleported to the other end of Vormir, a bright light blinding him from seeing what was going on. He blinked the darkness out and sees the sparkling stone waiting to be picked up which disappeared the moment he came in contact with the illusion.

He screamed in frustration, slapping the water as he looked for it everywhere.

« Where is it ?! »

His furious gaze landed on the hill where Red Skull waited for him to return. He teleported himself there, grabbing the red man by the throat and asking in a very threatening tone :

« Where is the Soul Stone? I did everything it requires to have it, why do I not have it ? Answer me , filfthy pawn. »

Red Skull merely flinched at Thanos'outburst of fury and managed to say :
