Lethal

Part Twenty Eight - The End of the Line

You ran faster then you had ran before, using your powers to kill whoever tried to take the gauntlet from you, "say where am I supposed to take this thing?!!" You scream hoping that the comm built into your suit still worked.

"As far away from them as possible!" You hear a static Bruce say, oh hey that reminded you, you hadn't seen Bruce yet, you wondered how he was going. "Sorry to break it to your guys but if we don't do something soon, there all just going to keep coming" you state the obvious as you spot Bruce in the distance, at least you think it was him wowee he changed.

Suddenly a Chitauri crashed into you, knocking the gauntlet out of your hands and sending it tumbling down the hill, the alien try's to thrash his sword into your heart but you kick him in the shoulders sending him flying back, you walk over to him picking up his sword and plunging it into his stomach spraying his blood all over your suit.

"Ew" you mumble as you turn around remembering you dropped the gauntlet, "I got it don't worry!" Peter yells as he swings down and swoops it up under his arm running off with it.

You continue to run once again killing everything in your path, yet they all kept coming back, fighting them off was no use, they where just going to keep coming, someone needed to do something and fast.

Suddenly a large blue laser is shot only metres in front of you as you jump out of the way merely dodging it, another one hits, this time hitting you sending you flying back.

..... You groan as you open your eyes, your vision blury and your body aching from the impact. You knew you had passed out.. not only from the laser but from how physically weak your body was, your body was telling you to stop, to rest but you couldn't, you had to keep fighting, yeah maybe that might make the whole process of death more painful, but you didn't care, at least you'd be an Avenger.

that's all you ever wanted....

and a family...

but you where pretty positive you had the best family anyone could ask for.

"You are very weak" someone says from behind as you turn yourself around to see that the antenna girl had her hands on your head, "AH!" You scream jumping from the unknown person behind you.

"Your brother sent me to see if you where okay, he does not believe you when you said you where fine, he thinks you are lying" she smiles as you try to get up, "yeah what a surprise" you mumble as you internally cheer from successfully getting up.

"What did Thanos do to you?" She asks seeming more concerned now. "I gotta go" you smile before running off eager to join the fight again, "you will die if you continue fighting!" She yells back at you, "I know!" You reply not really wanting to think about death at this point.

You watch from the distance as Tony fights Thanos as everyone else fights the Chitauri every single person on the battlefield eager to win, eager for a tiny bit of glory.

You turn your gaze from thanos and run the other way fighting off a large group of the aliens that seemed to be tormenting Sam.

You where fighting off a very powerful Chitauri member when suddenly he turned to dust..

exactly how you all once did 5 years ago.

You then look around to see every single one of the aliens turn to dust.

"What?" You question confused to what was happening, "someone must of snapped" Sam mumbles as a small smile forms on your face.

you won...

the Avengers won.

But who snapped?

"Y/n y-you might want to come over t-to where Tony I-is" you hear Pepper say through the comm her voice sniffly and hoarse from what sounds light she had been crying.

You quickly turn yourself around and fly over to them, landing harshly on your feet as you body grows weaker.

Tears immediately fill your eyes as you see why pepper wanted you to come over.

It was Tony...

Tony had snapped...

he had saved the world.

You watched as Pepper had an arm around Peter who was crying, god it was awful.

"T-tony" you mumble kneeling down in front of him..

his weak eyes staring into yours..

eyes so full of love...

full of courage...

full of fear..

"please d-don't leave us" You say more tears falling down your face as you lean your head into his shoulder.

he couldn't go...

no he couldn't...

no.

"Please Tony.. please..." You cry as he ever so slowly lifts up his hand placing it on your back in comfort.

"You did good Tony... w-where proud of y-you" you mumble finding it hard to find the right words to say.

"S-so d-did y-you" he mumbles quietly stifling a slight smile making you cry even more. You watched as his eyes grew weaker, his life slowly coming to an end.

You feel as Bucky places a hand on your shoulder pulling you back slightly so Pepper could say her goodbyes, "n-no" you cry as Bucky pulls you up.

"It's okay" he mumbles as he hugs you trying to comfort you. "N-no it's not" you mumble back completely falling into tears as he presses your head into your shoulder, stroking your head with his hand.

"Hey" You hear Pepper say to Tony as you peak at them lifting your head slightly from Bucky's shoulder. "Friday" Pepper says sadly but you weren't able to hear what she said as your tears overtook everything.

"Tony" Pepper mumbles trying to keep in her own tears.

"Look at me... where going to be okay...... you can rest now" she says tears falling down her face as you bury your head back into Bucky's shoulder... physically not being able to watch Tony's last moments.

You feel your head throb...

maybe from the crying...

probably from your body breaking down...

you didn't know...

you didn't care....

Tony was dead and you couldn't stand that thought.

You hear Pepper sob from behind you probably meaning that Tony was now gone making you cry even more.

You feel yourself go extremely light headed as your knees try to buckle from under you.....

you why dying....

god no......

you couldn't do this......

not to Buck....

not to Peter.....

not to anyone....

they had already lost today you couldn't add to that list.

You felt your eyes roll to the back of your head as your body tried to give way. "I-I'm sorry Buck... t-tell th-them I-I'm sorry" you mumble into Bucky's ear knowing you couldn't hold yourself up any longer.

Your knees buckled under you as you fell to the ground, your Vision becoming blurry as Bucky slowly realised what was going on.

"No" he mumbles as everything went black.

Maybe it wasn't all bad.

Maybe you would see Tony at the end of the line.

Maybe even Nat.

That was emotional damn I cried so much, what about you?
