???...

Somewhere in a unknown place, a man dressed in all white sat on the remains of an once extravagant temple that now laid in ruins. He had a loaf of bread in his hand and was tearing off pieces. He hummed as he tossed the pieces of bread down into the hole before him as the plant life around him moved and grew.

Doctor: So, it seems that boy of mine is once again causing trouble. I do wonder how this will play out.

He tossed another piece of bread down the hole.

Doctor: He had managed to turn my other son against me. He is well on the path to being able to defeat me. However, he still has a long way to go before he can do so.

He threw down the remaining bread before reaching into his bag and pulled out a large package wrapped piece of meat.

Doctor: He is, truly something else. I must admit, if circumstances were different, I'd be proud. His destiny will soon be revealed to him. Until then, I shall allow him to enjoy his "heroing".

He grabbed the meat and threw it down the hole.

Doctor: Perhaps, you'll get to meet him soon.

From the hole, a low growl echoed in the dark. The Doctor stood up and dusted his hands off as he turned away.

Doctor: Rest for now, my child. Your time will come soon. As will his.
-------
Avengers Mountain...

Reed: So, we have two immediate problems, Tony.

Reed stood there in the suit that Tony and he had created to stop the Cotati. A white and blue suit that was created to be able to stretch along with Richards. A large 4 was on his chest.

Reed: According to T'Challa's own satellite feed, a Cotati death blossom, similar to the one flowered on the moon, is growing in Wakanda. On the Great Vibranium Mound. We've lost contact with T'Challa himself. We have to assume he's incapacitated...perhaps fatality. On Vibranium enriched soil, the death blossom will reach maturity within minutes. And the moment it flowers, it'll boost Quoi's power over plants beyond measure. He won't be the Celestial Messiah anymore. He'll be a god. A god with an infinite reach.

Tony: But luckily for us, Reed..the sun might blow up first.

Cut to you, Captain Marvel, Waccan, Hulking, and The Human Torch fighting the false Hulking and his inner circle.

Reed: Well, quite. I don't know what's going on with the Kree-Skrull Alliance or with Hulking. I'd guess it's some sort  of violent political intrigue. But for whatever reason, they've activated the Pyre. Their solar detonation device. As a result, the fusion reaction inside our sun has gone into overdrive.

Tony rubbed his temples as Reed contiued on.

Reed: Current readings give us 8 minutes until it explodes.

Tony: Minus the time it took to say that out loud.

Reed: It never hurts to lay the problem out, Tony.

Tonny just shook his head and made the final adjustments to Reed's helmet as he talked.

Tony: Two problems. And two of us. The next move should be obvious, right? You go to Wakanda. I programed in a suborbital flight path in the suit. It'll get you there in no time. And I'll fix the sun.

Reed: By yourself?

Tony: One big brain per catastrophe. Makes sense.

Tony finished his adjustments and returned to his desk. He picked up a stray piece of tech and examined it while Reed watched him.

Reed: Does it? I'll be blunt with you, Tony. Since the moon, you...haven't acted like the Tony Stark I know. You seem lost. Snapping at yourself, blaming yourself...making mistakes...

Tony: I blame myself because I make mistakes, Reed. It's how it works.

Back on the Kree-Skrull Command ship, you battled against the inner circle. You and Captain Marvel were going head to head with Captain Glory as he battled you off. He swung his fist but you narrowly avoided his hit and delivered one of your own.

Tony: I get too blind, too arrogant...I get people killed....and then karma...

Captain Glory swung his elbow directly into your face and the glass on your visor shattered while the metal dented.

Reed: Tony...

Tony: Karma repays me. Again and again. With a crapshot of left over equment and a ticking clock!

You slammed into the ground as you felt your cut, bruised, and bleeding body scream in pain. You closed your eyes as the pain caused your to cry out. You clenched your fists.

Tony: You say I'm lost? I'm right here! In a cave...with scraps. You say I'm not acting like Tony Stark?

You pushed yourself back up to your feet as you reached up to grab your broken helmet.

Tony: Look at my cave of scraps, Reed. Look at my ticking clock. This is the only place I'm like Tony Stark. This is where Tony Stark was born.

You tore off your helmet with a warcry before you threw it at Glory. It hit his chest but you pulled out a knife and lunged at him as you stabbed him in the shoulder. Meanwhile, back on earth, Reed looked at his friend. He considered their options and his words. Finally, his helment closed.

Reed: All right, Tony. I'll handle my end. You've got this. That said, can I get a hint of exactly how you plan to achieve the impossible?

Tony just smiled.

Tony: You know my methods, Dr. Richards. Apply them.

He picked up Reed's Fantastic Four suit.

Tony: I'm going to put the sun in a suit. Wish me luck, and pray things don't get worse.
------
The Kree-Skrull Command Ship...

You swung around the bridge before you slammed your feet into Glory's back which sent him right into Marvel's hammer. Glory flew across the room as you threw a foam pallet the other way where it landed at Super-Skrull's feet. As he struggled to escape, Johnny used the opening to deliver a flaming punch to the Skrull. Timber then jumped up and bit down into his shoulder.

Y/N: This is going to be cutting things close. We don't have much time.

Marvel: I noticed. We need to turn the tides.

Y/N: Yeah, but how?

Suddenly, Mur-G'nn screamed as she grabbed her head in pain. You looked over to her to see that she was stuck in place out of fear.

Mur-G'nn: Feels like...I'm being torn in two...

Dorrek: Control yourself, half-breed!

Captain Glory: Better half a Kree than half a Skrull, you miserable imposter!

Super-Skrull began to stumble around as he tried to focus.

Super-Skrull: Some kind of, carrier wave....attacking our minds! C-Can't block it out...

He then turned towards Captain Glory as his body began to turn even more monstrous with his powers in full effect.

Super-Skrull: Not while the Butcher of Shapeless Ridge is breathing! How many did you slaughter that day, Gla'Ree?!

Captain Glory: Count them yourself, Super-Skrull...I'll send you to meet them!

You and the others stood off on the side as the inner circle began to fight among themselves. You were just, confused. What was going on? Quickly, you all ducked behind some control panels.

Y/N: Uh, did Captain Glory just admit fakeling's a fake? I got it on camera...

Captain Marvel: It's evidence of a crime. The universal weapon captured it all. Kl'Rt was right about the carrier wave. It's like a telepathic assault. Like the Kree half of me wants to join in...

Y/N: Please don't.

Hulking: Me too.

Y/N: I said don't.

Hulking: I'm guessing this inhibitor mask they put on me is blocking my Skrull half. Or I'd be frozen like Mur-G'nn right now, at war with myself.

Johnny: Good thing I couldn't get it off, huh?

Y/N: Yeah. Good work at sucking. Really oulled through this time, bud.

You peeked out and threw a knife at random. You then ducked back behind the panel.

Hulking: Torch, you can control all flame, right? And Captain Marvel absorbs energy...

Y/N: Oh. I get it. Together, they can tame the sun. As scary as that sounds.

Johnny: What? I...maybe technically, but...

Marvel: But the sun is 93 million miles away. How would we even get there to try?

You just looked over to Billy.

Billy: I...think I could get there. And keep us alive. It'll be hard for five of us...

Hulking: Four of us. Sorry, Hon...I'm needed here. I'm the king.

Hulking stood up and turned towards his inner circle.

Hulking: When I started this...I thought I could be a figurehead. Wave my sword, stop some wars, save some lives. But I have to be more than that. I can't run away from it. Just trust me. Trust that I can do this. If I got that, I won't be alone.

Y/N: Make it three.

The group turned towards you as you looked at the broken helmet on the floor. Your hair was wet in sweat and stuck to your face as you looked down at the broken tech. You then looked at your armored arm before you clenched your fist.

Y/N: I have a duty. I don't know why I was brought here. I don't know why I saw those visions. But, I know that my fight ends with Quoi. His journey mirrors my own and, honestly, I could've fallen down his path myself.

You dropped the helmet onto the ground and turned to face the others.

Y/N: I have an undying hatred inside of me. An anger that just won't go away. I live with regret everyday of my life. So does he. The only difference is, I had my family to guide me down the road of light. Quoi didn't have that. If I was in his shoes, I would want the entire universe to pay as well. So, I'm going to Wakanda and I'm going to end this. Once and for all.

Everyone stared at you before Marvel nodded.

Marvel: Ok, Kid. Fight hard.

You nodded as you grabbed Timber.

Y/N: I will. Good luck.
-------
????....

The Doctor watched as the plants around his grew and changed. He simply looked up at the sky.

Doctor: Interesting. A battle between fractions. Something this interesting hasn't happened in ages.

He smiled under his mask.

Doctor: An Emperor of Space, a Celestial Messiah, the King of Wakanda, and a Prince that does not know his destiny. I wonder how this will turn out.
-------
Wakanda...

You opened your eyes and stood up as you looked around the battlefield. Soldiers laid dead everywhere. Both Cotati and Wakandan. You moved, careful to not step on anyone, as you slowly approached the death blossom. On the hill, you saw them. Quoi and the Swordsman.

Y/N: Timber.

The wolf looked up to you.

Y/N: Go to Nikki. Stay there. You'll be safe.

Timber tilted his head. You looked down to him and petted his head.

Y/N: Go. I'll be fine.

Timber gave you one last look before he teleported away. You took a deep breath and reached down for a knife. Unfortunately, you were out. You silently cursed yourself and looked at your gauntlets. Your left one was completely destroyed. Your right one was barely functional.

Y/N: Great. Looks like I'm doing this the old fashioned way.

You cracked your knuckles and started to walk up the hill. All around you, the war waged on. You didn't even slow down as you looked up at the two Cotati.

Swordsman: Quoi, you must grow the death blossom faster! The Dark Harvet failed. The enemy is uniting again! The tide is turning! We will soon lose all we had gained.

Black Panther: Never a truer word, Old Friend.

You looked over and saw T'Challa standing there with the space sword in his hand.

Y/N: T'Challa!

You ran up the hill and joined him as the Swordsman and Quoi looked at the two of you in fear.

Swordsman: How...? You-You no pulse, Panther! You were dead! Dead!

Black Panther: I am king of the dead. And more. A master of shadow combat. My own unique blend of martial arts.

T'Challa swung his leg for a kick which Swordsman attempted to block.

T'Challa: Using those techniques, I slowed my heartbeat to almost nothing, reducing blood lost, until my ceremonial armor could patch my wounds.

You leaped over to Quoi and tackled him to the ground. He pushed you off but you quickly recovered. You shot out a string that wrapped around his wrist before you pulled it back in. The metal dug into his skin as cut his wrist which began to bleed green.

Quoi lunged at you with his knife which he used to slice at you. You backed up but the blade cut through your uniform and into your skin. He sliced at you again which cut your side. He then kicked your chest which sent you falling back. You slid down the hill for a moment before you came to a stop.

All of your wounds were now catching up with you. Your body felt like it was going to give in at any moment.

Quoi: Ingenious, Panther. But will it save you when...when the heart-shaped herb in your blood turns to...when it...

You looked up and saw Quoi trying to control the plants around him, to no success. You slowly began to push yourself up and looked down at your uniform. No good now. You grabbed a handful of your top before you tore it off. Your bare chest was still covered in bandages but they were now stained red. Your scars and wounds came into view before you tore off some more of your jacket. You then tied the fabric around your neck and pulled it up over your nose and mouth.

Quoi: It's not...not working...my power.

???: Because of me, I'm afraid.

Quoi: Stark?

He turned around to see the blue Iron Man armor, with Reed inside of it. His limbs were stretched out as he towered over the Messiah. You made you way back to the top of the hill and looked around. The battlefield was filled with soliders.

Reed: Mr. Fantastic of the Fantastic Four, actually. Though Iron Man is here in spirit. We've been studying bioacoustics. Did you know that plants respond strongly to certain sonic frequencies?

Of course! The answer of looking you in the eye the whole time.

Reed: The frequency this suit produces, as a matter of fact. It can't block your telepathic control of plants, but it'll add enough noise to your signal to distract them!

Quoi cried out in anger as he pulled out his swords. You moved to join Reed as you held up your fists. Your body wanted to give up, but your mind and heart were telling you to push forward. You owed it to everyone. Then, you heard it. The familiar sound of a certain jet.

Quoi: The I'll carve that suit off you by hand! You brought stereo speakers to this fight? You think you can stop me by sound? I have conquered this planet, Avengers! I have brought my heaven to your bestil world! What sound will take your world back?!

You leaped towards him and grabbed his arm as you smriked.

Y/N: Two words, Quoi.

You then pulled him close as you looked him in the eye.

Y/N: Avengers Assemble.

Over the battlefield, the Quinjet opened its baydoors as Avengers from all over the world began to join in on the battle. Captain America, Scarlet Witch, Thor, Wasp, Ant Man, Mantis, Invisible Woman, The Thing, She-Hulk, and so many more.

Quoi pushed you away but you didn't fall this time. You stayed standing.

Cap: Sequoia of the Cotati! This is Captain America, leading the combined forces of the Kree, Skrull, and Earth Armies! Oh, and the Avengers! We are ordering your to stand down and face the consequences!

Cap looked down at Quoi from the shil.

Cap: I had a long day, son. Don't make me tell you again.

The Avengers, the Kree-Skrull Alliance, and the armies of Earth all engaged in battle against the Cotati forces. You and Reed braced yourselves as Quoi lunged at the two of you. You blocked his blade with your armored arm while your grabbed his wrist with your other. Reed used the opening to knock him away.

Quoi stood back up but you had already reacted. You jumped up and kicked his chest with both of your feet which sent him to the ground. You landed on the dirt but quickly leaped up to avoid his blade. Across the mound, Black Panther and the Swordsman engaged in their own fight. Black Panther was suddenly knocked back and the Star-Sword flew from his hand and landed in the dirt.

Quoi: You fools. This fight is already over! Our wizards have absolute control of your vegetation! You can't be everywhere, but we can! This is our world now. And the animals are no longer wanted here!

Thor: Nay.

Quoi and the Swordsman turned around and saw Thor fly down from the sky. His lightning was now green and he looked more determined than ever. You pushed yourself up and looked around to see T'Challa grab the Star-Sword.

Thor: You learned the wrong lessons, boy. From the wrong teacher.

T'Challa took a step forward as you clenched your fists. No. This was what you were brought here for. You closed your eyes before you opened them with a new determination.

Thor: In your lust for revenge, you have taken the role of conqueror and colonizer. But I am a child of this world.

T'Challa went to hold up the blade, but suddenly found it absent from his hands.

Black Panther: How...

Thor: I am Thor, and the Gaea-Son! I have quested long to learn my mother's way! To learn her will! And to those who would control her bounty, use it to take life, her greatest gift, I say thee nay!

His power began to expand as the battle filed turned green under the light.

Thor: Mother Gaea plays no favorites, wizards of the Cotati! Her magic is stronger than yours, and in her name, let thy power be revoked!

His lighting crashed down onto the earth as most of the plant life controlled by the Cotati vanished away.

Quoi: No....no, no, no...

Swordsman: Ignore him, Quoi! He is only a god! You are the Messiah! And the death blossom still grows! When it flowers, you will be the son of all worlds...

Y/N: If it flowers, Duquesne!

You held up the Star-Sword as you charged at the Swordsman. You brought it down but he blocked it.

Y/N: If I allow it!

Swordsman: Don't called me that, Leviathan!

He broke the lock and you flipped back.

Y/N: You talk a lot, you know that? I heard that Jacques was a talker. Now, I'm gonna kick your ass with my bare hands, and this badass sword I stole from T'Challa.

Swordsman: I'm not Jacques Duquesne...

He was interrupted when you stabbed the blade into his shoulder.

Y/N: Yet you seem so like him. Filled with self-hate.

You pulled out the blade and moved to attack again but he blocked.

Y/N: Is that what drove you to corrupt your son, Swordsman? At attempt to end humanity?

Swordsman: Shut up!

He jabbed his blade at you but you blocked it before returning with a swipe of your own.

Y/N: Did you only wish to end you own?

Swordsman: I said shut up, Leviathan.

You blocked another hit and flipped backwards before you landed on your feet.

Y/N: You got something wrong. It's not Leviathan you're fighting.

Swordsman: So Y/N, then?

Y/N: No. Right now, I'm not Y/N or Leviathan. I'm not a hero or anything like that. Right now, I'm someone who relates to Quoi and everything he's gone through.

You attacked again but he blocked. He countered and cut into your shoulder.

Y/N: Right now, I'm not fighting to save the world! I'm fighting to save him! I'm going to save him from bastards like you!

You attacked more aggressively and the Swordsman began to struggle to keep up.

Y/N: People like you are the reason I have so much hate in my heart! You only look out for yourselves and you step on whoever you need to in order to fulfill your goals!

You attacked again and managed to cut his chest.

Y/N: I saw the original Swordsman. Jacques Duquesne himself. I saw him laugh. I saw him love. I saw the man you try so hard to replace and forget! I saw the Avenger that saved others!

You stabbed into his knee and kicked him away. The Swordsman quickly got back up as the battlefield slowly came to a halt as they watched the two of you battle on the mound.

Y/N: You say that us humans are the problem but you're no better than any of us! I died once to save this world and everyone on it. I'll be glad to do it again!

You swung your blade and sliced the Swordsman across the cheek which caused him to stumble back. You pointed your blade at him as Quoi rushed over to help his father.

Quoi: Father, no! Leave him alone you animal!

The Swordsman turned towards his son and smiled.

Swordsman: Y-Yes....that's it Quoi...defend your father!

He suddenly grabbed his son and held him in front of him as a shield. He then held his blade up against his neck as you slowly lowered your sword.

This bastard. He would use his own son to get the upper hand? He didn't give a damn about him. He lied and manipulated this boy in order to get the control he wanted. Even after everything Quoi had gone through to prove himself.

You grip on the sword tightened as you glared at the Swordsman. Your breath grew ragged as your head began to race. So much hate. So much anger. So much rage.

Swordsman: Back away, boy. Let me go. Let me live. Or the boy dies.

From the battlefield, everyone gasped.

Cap: His own son...

Cotati: Our messiah! The-The highest sacrilege!

Your vision began to blur as you stared at the Swordsman. Not from the lack of blood, though. This was something else. Something that hasn't happened in years. You looked down as the Swordsman smirked.

Y/N: You truly are a fool.

The Swordsman's eyes grew wide as you lifted your head. To his horror, your eye was now fully yellow while the cybernetic one began to glitch.

Swordsman: What?

Y/N: This prick is the reason I won't have an arm after all of this. You and him caused so much suffering.

Swordsman: B-But he is just a boy. Not much older than you. If you can save the son of Mantis, you'll try to. You're supposedly a hero...

Y/N: I already told you. I'm not here to be a hero. I'm only here to save Quoi. I never once said how I was going to fulfill that promise. Death is often consider a release.

Swordsman: We can end it here! You've won, I stand revealed! Even to myself! I am Jacques Duquesne. The filthy human, in all his glory!

Y/N: Strange. Now all I can see is plant. The poison vine that smothers the good oak, and destroys it.

You lifted the blade up and pointed it at him as the blue energy leaked into your wounds and healed them slowly.

Y/N: You see, I have seen Jacques. The real Jacques. He was human. So human it killed him.

Swordsman: Lower your sword, child.

Y/N: How funny, this all is. The person to defeat you isn't a king or an Emperor. It's a child. You see, there is one big difference between you and Jacques.

You took a step forward and the Swordsman held the sword closer to Quoi's neck.

Swordsman: Stay back or I'll kill him where he stands.

Y/N: You, are nothing. But Jacques...

You lunged forward and stabbed the blade right through Quoi and straight through the Swordsman's chest.

Y/N: HE DIED AN AVENGER! AND EVERYTHING YOU COULD NEVER BE!

You tored the blade out of Quoi shoulder before you stabbed the Swordsman again. You slammed your shoulder against him which caused his sword to stab into your gut. It didn't matter. You grabbed the sword with your armoerd hand and pulled it out. You then drove the second blade into the Swordsman as you pushed him into the Death Blossom.

Y/N: You were no Jacques Duquesne, Cotati. May the knowledge comfort you, at the hour of your death!

The death blossom began to glow brightly as the Star-Sword did its work. The death blossom is destroyed. The Cotati attack is over. You had won.
-----
Later...

You stood off on the side as the others stood on the edge of the cliffs. You held the Star-Sword in your hand as you looked up at the stars overhead.

Black Panther: Though, that still leaves the Death Blossom on the moon.

Reed: Actually, we got a message from the X-Men. They...weeded the garden.

Cap: I'd call that the last nail in the coffin for the Cotati master plan. But, I think we'd already struck the final blow.

You looked over to where Quoi was on his knees. He was now in power canceling cuffs as Thor and She-Hulk stood beside him. You looked over and saw that Mantis was approaching him.

Mantis: You see now, son? I'm sorry I failed you. I'm sorry I couldn't stop your father falling to his madness. But now, you surely now see. You see how wrong the path you choose was.

Quoi just looked at her.

Quoi: Mother...I do see...

Slowly, he stood up.

Quoi: I saw my father fall to the humanity that infects him....that I fects you. And me. Was my path corrupted by that humanity? The toxic animal instinct? Perhaps. Perhaps.

He then looked up at his mother.

Quoi: But was it wrong?! Does this world no longer burn, mother?! Are the skies and sea clean?! Do the animals no longer consume?! Foes the spilled sap of the Cotati scream at me from ancient plots and fresh dug graves?! No! I will face whatever the animals call justice...in the knowledge that I was just!

Thor and She-Hulk grabbed his shoulders and began to walk away with him.

Quoi: For the true life to survive, the animals...especially earth's "heroes"...must be tamed. Or put down.

Mantis looked at her son horrified.

Mantis: You...You have no idea what you're talking about! You're a child!

Quoi shot his mother one last look as he smiled.

Quoi: I am what you made me, mother. A Messiah.

You watched as he was escorted away to the Quinjet. You felt your grip loosen on the handle of the sword as you walked around. Your helmet was destroyed. Your gauntlets were done for. You had no more Leviathan gear to speak of.

Take about a rough few days.

You looked over and saw Cap talking to the hologram Tony. He was still at Avengers Mountain but he wanted to be there to celebrate.

Tony: There goes the future of the Cotati. Maybe the future of the universe...

Cap: We'll see, Tony. Right now the Cotati are willing to see sense. They're surrendering worldwide, peacefully. And their surrender is being accepted by the Kree-Skrull Alliance. No more dissension in the ranks. A new respect for one another. And for us.

Reed sighed as he sat next to his wife.

Sue: I feel like I should be more reassured by that.

Reed: I'm the same way, Sue. This new alliance is a seismic change to galactic politics, and Earth is at the epicenter. Whether we're ready or not. We're about to enter a new age of space, with new challenges...and new dangers, I worry. Perhaps Quoi is the future.

T'Challa looked up at the stars along with the others.

T'Challa: Perhaps, my friends. But there are others who hold the future in their hands.

Suddenly, the Star-Sword began to glow in your hand. Teddy must be calling for it. Slowly, you let go of it as it vanished away.

Y/N: Yeah. And I have great faith in them. Long...live...the..king...

Everyone looked over to you as the sword's effects began to fade. Your wounds opened again and you began to stumble.

Reed: Kid?

You turned around to look at them as your eyes grew wide. Suddenly, you coughed up blood, before you fell forward.

Sue: KID!

Everyone rushed over to you, as your vison grew black.
