NO ONE'S POV:

Avengers Base
Late At Night

(Y/N is on the roof with a cigar in his hand.)

(Y/N): [sighs]

(Before Y/N can do anything with the cigar, Natasha walks onto the roof.)

Natasha: There you are.

(Y/N): Hey.

Natasha: I've been looking for you.

(Y/N): Oh, I'm sorry. To be honest I don't even know why I'm up here.

(Natasha notices the cigar in his hands.)

Natasha: Looks like you're up here for a smoke.

(Y/N): Heh, that would explain the cigar.

Natasha: You never told me you smoked.

(Y/N): I don't. Not anymore.

Natasha: What made you quit?

(Y/N): Wanda. She never liked me smoking.

Natasha: (Y/N)...

(Natasha walks up to Y/N.)

(Y/N): I just thought, now of all times it might be a good time for a smoke.

(Natasha holds Y/N's hand & Y/N tosses the cigar off the roof.)

Natasha: Smoking is a real nasty habit.

(Y/N): Yeah, I know. By the way, do you know Steve's shaving his beard?

Natasha: I do.

(Y/N): I tried to convince him to keep it.

(Natasha places her hand on one of Y/N's sideburns.)

Natasha: Hmm, I wonder why.

(Y/N): *light smile* Beards are cool.

[RUMBLING]

(Natasha, Y/N, Steve, Banner, Rhodey, & Pepper run outside to see Captain Marvel land a ship with Tony & Nebula walking out of it. Steve runs up to Tony & helps him walk.)

Tony: [panting] Couldn't stop him.

Steve: Neither could I.

Tony: Hang on. I lost the kid.

Steve: Tony, we lost.

(Y/N): The kid...?

Tony: ...

(Y/N): *grits teeth* Damnit!

(Pepper & Tony reunite, Rocket & Nebula sit in sadness.)

(Cut to inside of Avengers Base.)

Rhodey: It's been 23 days since Thanos came to Earth.

Natasha: World governments are in pieces.

(Wanda's face goes by along with other people who vanished.)

(Y/N): [deep breathe]

Natasha: The parts that are still working are trying to take a census and it looks like he did...He did exactly what he said he was gonna do.

(Tony looks down & Carol looks shocked.)

Natasha: Thanos wiped out...50% of all living creatures.

Tony: Where is he now? Where?

Steve: We don't know. He just opened a portal and walked through.

Tony: [sighs]

(Tony looks over at Thor.)

Tony: What's wrong with him?

(Tony looks at Thor who's sitting down.)

Rocket: Oh, he's pissed. He thinks he failed. Which, of course, he did...but there's a lot of that going around, ain't there?

Tony: Honestly, until this exact second I thought you were a Build-A-Bear.

Rocket: Maybe I am. Just like how this guy is a Wolverine.

*SKINT*

(Y/N): I'm not really in the mood for playful banter.

Steve: (Y/N), please.

(Y/N): [groans]

(Y/N begrudgingly retracts his claws.)

Steve: We've been hunting Thanos for three weeks now. Deep space scans and satellites, and we got nothing. We got as much as we could from (Y/N) so Tony, you also fought him.

Tony: Why did you tell him that (Y/N)?

(Y/N): Because you did?

Tony: Well, I didn't fight him. No, he wiped my face with a planet while the Bleecker Street magician gave away the store. That's what happened. There was no fight, 'cause he's not beatable. Though, (Y/N), you gave it your best shot.

(Y/N): And it wasn't enough.

Tony: Remind me to give you a raise.

Steve: Did he give you any clues, any coordinates, anything?

Tony: Uh...[sputters]

(Steve, Natasha, & Y/N look away annoyed.)

Tony: I saw this coming a few years back. I had a vision. I didn't want to believe it. Thought I was dreaming.

Steve: Tony, I'm gonna need you to focus.

Tony: And I needed you. As in, past tense. That trumps what you need. It's too late, buddy. Sorry. [sniffs] You know what I need? I need a shave. And I believe I remember telling all youse...

(Tony is trying to rip out his IV.)

Rhodey: Tony, Tony!

(Tony rips out his IV.)

Tony: ...alive or otherwise, that what we needed was a suit of armor around the world. Remember that? Whether it impacted our precious freedoms or not. That's what we needed.

Steve: Well, that didn't work out, did it?

Tony: I said we'd lose. You said, "We'll do that together, too." And guess what, Cap? We lost. And you weren't there. But that's what we do, right? Our best work after the fact? We're the "Avengers."

(Rhodey holds Tony back.)

Tony: We're the "Avengers," not the "Pre-vengers."

Rhodey: Okay.

Tony: Right?

Rhodey: You made your point. Just sit down, okay?

Tony: Okay. No, no, here's my point. You know what?

(Tony looks over at Carol.)

Tony: She's great by the way.

Rhodey: Tony, you're sick. Sit down.

Tony: We need you. You're new blood.

(Y/N): I get that she saved you Tony but-

Tony: We're gonna need her, (Y/N). Because the rest of us are a bunch of old mules. And Cap, I got nothing for you.

(Tony walks up to Steve.)

Tony: I got no coordinates, no clues, no strategies, no options. Zero. Zip. Nada. No trust, liar.

(Tony rips his Arc Reactor off his chest & shoves it in Steve's hand.)

Tony: Here, take this. You find him, you put that on...you hide.

(Tony falls to the ground.)

Steve: Tony!

Tony: I'm fine. I...

(Tony falls into a heap, unconscious.)

After Banner Gives Tony A Sedative

Rhodey: Bruce gave him a sedative. He's probably gonna be out for the rest of the day.

Carol: You guys take care of him and I'll bring him a Xorrian elixir when I come back.

(Y/N): A what?

Steve: Where are you going?

Carol: To kill Thanos.

(Natasha & Steve look at each other.)

Natasha: Hey. You know, we usually work as team a here and, uh, between you and I, morale's a little fragile.

Steve: We realize up there is more your territory, but this is our fight, too.

(Y/N): Don't think you can just leave us behind.

Rhodey: You even know where he is?

Carol: I know people who might.

Nebula: Don't bother.

(Carol looks back at Nebula.)

Nebula: I can tell you where Thanos is.

(Cut to Nebula telling everyone about her father.)

Nebula: Thanos spent a long time trying to perfect me. And when he worked, he talked about his Great Plan. Even disassembled, I wanted to please him. I'd ask...where would we go once his plan was complete? And his answer was always the same. "To the Garden."

Rhodey: That's cute. Thanos has a retirement plan.

(Y/N): Real cute.

Steve: So, where is he?

(Rocket pulls up a hologram of Earth.)

Rocket: When Thanos snapped his fingers...Earth became ground zero for a power surge of ridiculously cosmic proportions. No one's ever seen anything like it. Until two days ago...

(Rocket pulls another hologram of a planet with the same power surge.)

Rocket: On this planet.

Nebula: Thanos is there.

Natasha: He used the stones again.

Banner: Hey, hey, hey. [chuckles] We'd be going in shorthanded, you know?

(Y/N): Amazing deductive skills, bub.

Banner: I'm just saying.

Rhodey: Look, he's still got the stones, so...

Carol: So, let's get 'em. Use them to bring everyone back.

Banner: Just like that?

Steve: Yeah. Just like that.

Natasha: Even if there's a small chance that we can undo this...I mean, we owe it to everyone who's not in this room to try.

Banner: If we do this, how do we know it's gonna end any differently than it did before?

Carol: Because before you didn't have me.

Rhodey: Hey, new girl? Everybody in this room is about that superhero life. And if you don't mind my asking, where the hell have you been all this time?

Carol: There are a lot of other planets in the universe. And unfortunately, they didn't have you guys.

(Y/N): [sarcastically] Thankfully they have you.

Carol: Do we have a problem?

(Y/N): We do.

(Y/N makes his way towards Carol.)

(Y/N): Now, I know you haven't seen us work but you can tell we aren't pushovers. Obviously, I haven't seen you work but all you've done is talk a big game. You were even going to kill Thanos by yourself.

(Y/N is now face-to-face with Carol.)

(Y/N): To me, you look like a pushover.

Carol: I'm sorry to hear you think that way, junior.

(Y/N): "Junior?"

(Before anything happens between them, Thor walks up to Carol & calls Stormbreaker near her but she's unfazed by it.)

Thor: I like this one.

(Y/N): Well, if you have Thor's seal of approval then you're fine.

Carol: Great.

Steve: Let's go get this son of a bitch.

(Cut to everyone aboard the Benatar.)

Rocket: Okay. Who here hasn't been to space.

(Steve, Natasha, & Rhodey raise their hands.)

Rhodey: Why?

Carol & (Y/N): [chuckles]

Rocket: You better not throw up on my ship.

(Y/N): Don't worry, Natasha. This is just like riding on a plane.

Natasha: Really?

(Y/N): No.

Natasha: [chuckles] I love you.

Nebula: Approaching jump in three...two, one.

(The Benatar jumps to the planet that Thanos is on.)

Carol (Over Speakers): I'll head down for recon.

(Carol flies down to the planet & Steve is looking down at a compass with Peggy's picture in it.)

Natasha: This is gonna work, Steve.

Steve: I know it will. 'Cause I don't know what I'm gonna do if it doesn't.

(Natasha looks back at Y/N.)

Natasha: Ready for round two, killer?

*SKINT*

(Y/N): Absolutely.

(Carol flies back to the Benatar.)

Carol (Over Speakers): No satellites. No ships. No armies. No ground defenses of any kind. It's just him.

Nebula: And that's enough.

[There should be a GIF or video here. Update the app now to see it.]

[There should be a GIF or video here. Update the app now to see it.]

(Everything in the videos stays the same but instead of Thor cutting off Thanos' arm, Y/N cuts it off.)

Five Years Later
Avengers Base

(Natasha just finished making a sandwich and Y/N cuts it in half with one of claws.)

Natasha: Thanks.

(Natasha kisses Y/N's cheek.)

Rocket (On Speakers): Yeah. We boarded that highly-suspect warship Danvers pinged.

Nebula: It was an infectious garbage scow.

Rocket: So, thanks for the hot tip.

Carol: Well, you were closer.

Rocket. Yeah. And now we smell like garbage.

(Natasha & Y/N walk towards a desk.)

Natasha: You get readings on those tremors?

Okoye: 'Twas a mild subduction under the African plate.

Natasha: Do we have a visual? How are we handling it?

Okoye: Nat. It's an earthquake under the ocean. We handle it by not handling it.

Natasha: Carol, are we seeing you here next month?

Carol: Not likely.

Rocket: What? You gonna get another haircut?

(Y/N): [chuckles]

Carol: Listen, fur face. I'm covering a lot of territory. The things that are happening on Earth are happening everywhere. On thousands of planets.

Rocket: All right, all right. That's a good point.

Carol: And you could use a haircut yourself, junior.

(Y/N): Five years. Five years and I still don't like that nickname.

Carol: So, you might not see me for a long time.

(Natasha & Y/N sit next to each other.)

Natasha: All right. Uh, well...This channel's always active. So, if anything goes sideways...anyone's making trouble where they shouldn't...

(Y/N): Comes through us.

(Everyone signs off except for Rhodey.)

Natasha: [sighs softly] Where are you?

Rhodey: Mexico. The Federales found a room full of bodies. Looks like a bunch of cartel guys never even had a chance to get their guns out.

Natasha: It's probably a rival gang.

Rhodey: Except it isn't. At first I thought it was (Y/N)'s handiwork but he's been by your side for these past five years.

(Y/N): Thanks?

Rhodey: It's definitely Barton. What he's done here...what's he been doing for the last few years...I mean, the scene he left...I gotta tell you, there's a part of me that doesn't even want to find him.

Natasha: Will you find out where he's going next?

Rhodey: Nat.

Natasha: Please?

Rhodey: Okay.

(Rhodey signs off. Natasha begins to breathe shakily until Y/N takes her into his arms & slowly strokes her hair.)

Steve: You know, I'd offer to cook you both dinner...but you seem pretty miserable already.

(Y/N slowly lets go of Natasha.)

(Y/N): Steve.

Natasha: You here to do your laundry?

Steve: And to see some friends.

Natasha: Clearly, your friends are fine.

(Y/N): [sighs] Yeah.

Steve: You know, I saw a pod of whales when I was coming over the bridge.

Natasha: In the Hudson?

Steve: There's fewer ships...cleaner water. You and (Y/N) should go check it out. Maybe you'll see them, too.

(Y/N): Thanks for the next date night.

Natasha: You know, if you're about to tell us to look on the bright side...Um...I'm about to hit you in the head with a peanut butter sandwich.

Steve: Hmm. Sorry. Force of habit.

(Steve sits across from the couple.)

Steve: You know, I keep telling everybody they should move on...and grow. Some do. You two did, somewhat.

(Natasha & Y/N lightly smile at each other.)

Natasha: If we move on, who does this?

Steve: Maybe it doesn't need to be done.

(Y/N): That'd be nice.

Natasha: I used to have nothing. And then I got this. This job. This family. (Y/N). And I was better because of it. And even though they're gone...I'm still trying to be better.

(Natasha leans her head onto Y/N's shoulder.)

Steve: I think we need to get a life.

Natasha & (Y/N): You first.

(Camera footage pops up in front of them revealing Scott Lang.)

Scott: (On Speakers): Oh, hi, hi! Uh, is anyone home? This is, uh, Scott Lang. We met a few years ago at the airport...in Germany? I was the guy that got really big. I had a mask on. You wouldn't recognize me.

Steve: Is this an old message?

Scott: (On Speakers): Ant-Man? I know you know that.

Natasha: It's the front gate.

(Y/N): Holy shit.

Scott (On Speakers): I really need to talk to you guys.

(Cut to Scott inside of Avengers Base, pacing worriedly in front of Steve, Natasha, & Y/N.)

Scott: [muttering to himself]

Steve: Scott. Are you okay?

Scott: Yeah.

(Scott notices the wedding ring on Natasha's finger.)

Scott: So you and Cap finally tied the knot, huh? Congrats.

Steve: [chuckles]

Natasha: Actually-

(Y/N): She's married to me, Scott.

(Y/N holds up his hand showing Scott his wedding ring.)

Scott: Oh! Still, congrats.

(Y/N): Why'd you assume she was married to Steve?

Scott: Uh...back to the topic on hand, have either of you guys ever studied quantum physics?

Natasha: Only to make conversation.

Scott: All right, so...five years ago, right before...Thanos...I was in a place called the quantum realm. The quantum realm is like its own microscopic universe. To get there, you have to be incredibly small.

(Y/N): Obviously.

Scott: Hope. She's my, um...She was my...She was supposed to pull me out. And then Thanos happened...and I got stuck in there.

Natasha: I'm sorry, that must have been a very long five years.

Scott: Yeah, but that's just it. It wasn't. For me, it was five hours. See, the rules of the quantum realm aren't like they are up here. Everything is unpredictable. Is that anybody's sandwich? I'm starving.

(Y/N): Go ahead.

(Scott starts eating the sandwich.)

Steve: Scott. What are you talking about?

Scott: [muffled] So...what I'm saying is...time works differently in the quantum realm. The only problem right now is we don't have a way to navigate it. But what if we did? I can't stop thinking about it. What if we could somehow control the chaos...and we could navigate it? What if there was a way...that we could enter the quantum realm at a certain point in time...but then exit the quantum realm at another point in time? Like...Like before Thanos?

Steve: Wait. Are you talking about a time machine?

(Y/N): I think he is.

Scott: No. No, of course not. No, not a time machine. This is more like a...Yeah. Like a time machine. I know, it's crazy. It's crazy. [stammers] But I can't stop thinking about it. There's gotta be...some way...[sighs] It's crazy.

Natasha: Scott. I get emails from a raccoon...so nothing sounds crazy anymore.

(Y/N): Nothing's crazy considering the business we're in.

Scott: So, who do we talk about this?

(Cut to Steve, Natasha, Y/N, & Scott meeting with Tony at his cabin.)

Scott: [stammers] No. We know what it sounds like.

Steve: Tony, after everything you've seen, is anything really impossible?

Tony: Quantum fluctuation messes with the Planck scale...which then triggers the Deutsch Proposition. Can we agree on that?

(Tony hands each of them drinks.)

(Y/N): *smells the drink*

Tony: In layman's terms, it means you're not coming home.

Scott: I did.

Tony: No. You accidentally survived. [sighs] It's a billion-to-one cosmic fluke. And now you wanna pull a...What do you call it?

Scott: A time heist?

Tony: Yeah, a time heist. Of course. Why didn't we think of this before? Oh, because it's laughable. Because it's a pipe dream.

Steve: The stones are in the past. We could go back, we could get them.

Natasha: We can snap our own fingers. We can bring everybody back.

Tony: Or screw it up worse than he already has, right?

(Y/N): [groans]

Steve: I don't believe we would.

Tony: Gotta say it. I sometimes miss that giddy optimism. However, high hopes won't help...if there's no logical, tangible way for me to safely execute said time heist. I believe the most likely outcome will be our collective demise.

Scott: Not if we strictly follow the rules of time travel.

(Scott sits next to Tony.)

Scott: All right? It means no talking to our past selves...no betting on sports events.

Tony: I'm gonna stop you right there, Scott. Are you seriously telling me that your plan to save the universe is based on Back to the Future? Is it?

Scott: No.

Tony: Good. You had me worried there. 'Cause that would be horseshit. That's not how quantum physics works.

Natasha: Tony. We have to take a stand.

Tony: We did stand. And yet, here we are.

Scott: I know you got a lot on the line. You got a wife, a daughter. But I lost someone very important to me. A lotta people did. And now, now we have a chance to bring her back...to bring everybody back, and you're telling me that you won't even...

Tony: That's right, Scott. I won't even.

(Tony looks at Y/N.)

Tony: My wedding gift is in transit.

(Y/N): I'm sure it is.

Tony: Other than that and a groan, that's all you've said. I thought you'd be trying to convince me along with your wife.

(Y/N): Well, you've already made up your mind. What can I say to convince you? That I miss my sister? That I miss the kid? That all I want to do is tell Wanda that I'm married?! Would saying all of that convince you?

Tony: No.

(Y/N): Exactly.

Tony: I can't.

(Morgan runs out to her dad.)

Morgan: Mommy told me to come and save you.

Tony: Good job. I'm saved. I wish you were coming here to ask me something else. Anything else.

(Tony stands up with Morgan in his arms.)

Tony: I'm honestly happy to see you guys, I just...Oh, look, the table's set for seven.

Steve: Tony. I get it. And I'm happy for you. I really am. But this is a second chance.

Tony: I got my second chance right here, Cap. Can't roll the dice on it. If you don't talk shop, you can stay for lunch. (Y/N), Morgan would love for you to babysit her.

(Y/N): Really?

Morgan: Yes!

(Y/N): Oh? Whenever then.

(Cut to the four of them walking back to their car.)

Natasha: Well, he's scared.

(Y/N): I don't blame him.

Steve: He's not wrong.

Scott: Yeah, but, I mean, what are we gonna do? We need him. What, are we gonna stop?

Steve: No, I wanna do it right. We're gonna need a really big brain.

Scott: Bigger than his?

(Cut to a cafe with the four of them, sitting with Banner. Banner as Professor Hulk. Y/N sits with Natasha & Steve sits next to Scott.)

Banner: Come on, I feel like I'm the only one eating here. Try some of that.

Scott: I'm so confused.

(Y/N): You get used to it.

Banner: These are confusing times. [chuckles]

Scott: Right, no, no. That's not what I meant.

Banner: Nah, I get it. I'm kidding! I know, it's crazy. I'm wearing shirts now.

Scott: Yeah. What? How? Why?

Banner: Five years ago, we got our asses beat. Except it was worse for me...'cause I lost twice. First, Hulk lost, then Banner lost...and then, we all lost.

Natasha: No one blamed you, Bruce.

Banner: I did. For years, I've been treating the Hulk like he's some kind of disease...something to get rid of. But then, I start looking at him as the cure. Eighteen months in the gamma lab. I put the brains and the brawn together and now, look at me. Best of both worlds. I can still split (Y/N) in two if I wanted.

(Y/N): Care to test your theory?

Banner: Relax, (Y/N). I kid, I kid.

(Some kids come up to Banner to take a picture with him which he gladly obliges. Scott asks if they want to take a picture with him as well but sadly they don't know who he is.)

(Y/N): It's okay, Scott. Not all heroes need fans.

Scott: Do you have fans?

(Y/N): Hmm, I doubt it.

Steve: Bruce.

(Banner does a dab.)

Banner: Dab.

(Y/N): So this is what the Hulk's become, huh?

Natasha: (Y/N)!

(Y/N): What?

Steve: About what we were saying.

Banner: Right. The whole time travel do-over? Eh, guys, it's outside of my area of expertise.

Natasha: Well, you pulled this off. I remember a time when that seemed pretty impossible, too.

[There should be a GIF or video here. Update the app now to see it.]

[There should be a GIF or video here. Update the app now to see it.]

[There should be a GIF or video here. Update the app now to see it.]

(Everything in the videos stays the same. Just imagine Y/N laughing his ass off during Scott's transformations.)

(Y/N): [laughing] Good job, Bruce!

Tokyo

(Cut to Y/N & Natasha on the Quinjet.)

(Y/N): You know, I've always wanted to go to Tokyo. I just wish it was in better circumstances.

(Natasha walks up behind Y/N & wraps her arms around him.)

Natasha: When this whole thing is over, we can go back for our honeymoon.

(Y/N): Good point. Considering we never had one to begin with.

Natasha: Can I ask you something?

(Y/N): Yeah.

Natasha: Why'd you come with me? You're not worried about what Clint might do to me, are you?

(Y/N): Of course not.

Natasha: You're worried about me, aren't you?

(Y/N): Natasha. We're married. I'm always going to be worried about you. But the reason I came with you to get Clint is because our last conversation didn't end too well.

Natasha: Right, I remember now.

(Y/N): It's way past due I apologize to him.

(Cut to Clint after killing all of the yakuza with Y/N standing behind him.)

Clint: (Y/N).

(Y/N): Hey, Clint.

Clint: Kuzuri.

(Kuzuri is "wolverine" in Japanese.)

(Y/N): [awkward chuckle] That's me.

Clint: Did Nat send you here to stop me?

(Y/N): No, I'm actually here to apologize for what I said to you way back on The Raft.

Clint: Is that right?

(Y/N): So, I'm sorry.

Clint: [groans] Treating Nat okay?

(Y/N): Ask her yourself.

(Natasha walks from behind Y/N.)

Clint: You shouldn't be here.

Natasha: Neither should you.

Clint: I've got a job to do.

Natasha: Is that what you're calling this? Killing all these people isn't gonna bring your family back.

(Natasha walks towards Clint.)

Natasha: We found something. A chance, maybe.

Clint: [sighs] Don't.

Natasha: Don't what?

Clint: Don't give me hope.

Natasha: I'm sorry I couldn't give it to you sooner.

(Natasha & Clint hold hands.)

Avengers Base

(Cut to Clint before he's about to do the test run.)

Scott: Look we go back, we get the stones before Thanos gets them...Thanos doesn't have the stones. Problem solved.

(Y/N): Boom.

Clint: Bingo.

Nebula: That's not how it works.

Clint: Well, that's what I heard.

Banner: Wait, but who? Who told you that?

Rhodey: Star Trek, Terminator, Timecop, Time After Time.

Scott: Quantum Leap.

(Y/N): Predestination.

Rhodey: Wrinkle In Time, Somewhere In Time.

(Y/N): Men In Black 3.

Scott: Hot Tub Time Machine.

Rhodey: Hot Tub Time Machine. Bill and Ted's Excellent Adventure. Basically any movie that deals with time travel.

Scott: Die Hard. No, that's not one.

(Y/N): Looper.

Scott: I love that one.

Rhodey: This is known.

Banner: I don't know why everyone believes that, but isn't true. Think about it. If you travel to the past...that past becomes your future...and your former present becomes the past...which can't now be changed by your new future.

Nebula: Exactly.

Scott: So Back to the Future is a bunch of bullshit?

(Y/N): Don't believe everything you see, huh?

(Cut to the meeting discussing the stones.)

Clint: Which means we have to pick our targets.

Tony: Correct.

Steve: So, let's start with the Aether. Thor, what do you know?

(Everyone looks at Thor.)

Natasha: Is he asleep?

Rhodey: No, no. I'm pretty sure he's dead.

(Y/N): He smells like a water buffalo.

(Cut to Y/N explaining the Mind Stone.)

(Y/N): The Mind Stone was in Loki's scepter, brought Vision to life, and...[sighs] it's what gave my brother, sister, and I our powers.

Scott: So you're telling me that stone gave you your claws?

(Y/N): No, it made me able to heal from anything.

*SKINT*

(Y/N): Hydra gave me the claws.

Thor: I bet those are the best back scratchers.

(Thor walks towards Y/N.)

Thor: Could you scratch my back real quick? I just can't seem to reach this one spot.

(Y/N): What? No, get away from me.

(Cut to after the meetings.)

Steve: All right. We have a plan. Six stones, three teams, one shot.

(Cut to the teams walking towards the Quantum time machine.)

Steve: Five years ago, we lost. All of us. We lost friends. We lost family. We lost a part of ourselves. Today, we have a chance to take it all back. You know your teams. You know your missions.

Steve: Get the stones. Get them back. One round-trip each. No mistakes...no do-overs. Most of us are going somewhere we know. That doesn't mean we should know what to expect. Be careful. Look out for each other. This the fight of our lives...and we're gonna win.

(Steve & Tony look at each other.)

Steve: Whatever it takes. Good luck.

Rocket: He's pretty good at that.

Scott: Right?

(Cut to Clint holding a miniature Benatar in his hand.)

Rocket: You promise to bring that back in one piece, right?

Clint: Yeah, yeah, yeah. Okay, I'll do my best.

Rocket: As promises go, that was pretty lame.

(Y/N): I'll make sure he's careful, Rocket.

Rocket: That makes me feel a little better.

(BEEPING)

Natasha: See ya in a minute.

(They all shrink and enter the Quantum Realm, and they split at different intervals, going to a different place in time in history.)

Morag
2014

(Cut to Y/N, Natasha, & Clint watching a pod from the Benatar being lowered.)

*SKINT*

(Y/N stabs one of the Orloni as it was about to attack him & holds it up to his face.)

(Y/N): Little shit.

Clint: [sighs] Hey, can we hurry it up?

Natasha: Guys, chop-chop. Come on. We're on the clock.

Rhodey: All that is really helpful.

(Rhodey & Natasha hug.)

Rhodey: Take care, okay?

Natasha: Yeah.

Rhodey: Get that stone and come back. No messing around.

(Y/N & Rhodey shakes hands.)

(Y/N): Good luck.

Rhodey: You too.

(Clint, Y/N, & Natasha walk back onto the ship.)

Rhodey: You guys watch each other's six.

(Clint, Y/N, & Natasha look back & smile.)

Clint: Yeah.

(They fly off in the ship.)

Nebula: The coordinates for Vormir are laid in. All they have to do is not fall out.

(Cut to inside of the Benatar.)

Clint: We're a long way from Budapest.

Natasha: [chuckles]

(Y/N): What exactly happened in Budapest?

Clint: She never told you? After all of these years?

(Y/N): Nope.

Clint: [laughs] Nat.

Natasha: There were obviously bigger things going on.

Clint: There's no time like the present.

Natasha: Do you really want to know, killer?

(Y/N): I'm dying to know.

Natasha: Well-

(Before Natasha can tell Y/N, the Benatar speeds up tremendously.)

Vormir
2014

(Cut to Clint, Natasha, & Clint looking at Vormir.)

Clint: Wow. Under different circumstances...this would be totally awesome.

(Cut to the trio walking on the sands of Vormir with Natasha out in front as Clint & Y/N hang back a bit.)

Clint: So, (Y/N).

(Y/N): Clint?

Clint: Tell me how you proposed to Nat.

(Y/N): [chuckles] All right.

Clint: I get the feeling that you did some big romantic gesture.

(Y/N): I mean, I would've liked to do that but considering what happened, there wasn't any time to do that. So, one night, Natasha and I were watching a movie, I forgot what movie we were watching but she got up and walked to the fridge to get something. I walked up behind her, got on a knee, and pulled out the ring. And when she turned around...[chuckles] she just stood there for a solid minute. But when I asked her, "Will you marry me?" She started to cry, put the ring on her finger, and of course, said yes.

Clint: That's nice, (Y/N).

(Y/N): *light smile* Yeah.

Clint: I'm glad you two have each other.

(Y/N): I'm lucky to have her.

Clint: [chuckles] As you should be.

(Natasha looks back at them.)

Natasha: We don't have all day, boys.

(Cut to the trio walking up a mountain.)

Natasha: [groans] I bet the raccoon didn't have to climb a mountain.

Clint: Technically, he's not a raccoon, you know?

(Y/N): And technically, he is.

Natasha: Oh, whatever. He eats garbage.

Red Skull: Welcome.

*SKINT*

(Clint draws his sword, Natasha pulls her gun, & Y/N sends his claws out.)

Red Skull: Natasha. Daughter of Ivan. Clint. Son of Edith. (Y/N). Son of Iryna.

(The trio slowly walk towards the Red Skull.)

Natasha: Who are you?

Red Skull: Consider me a guide...to you...and to all who seek the Soul Stone.

Natasha: Oh, good. You tell us where it is, then we'll be on our way.

Red Skull: Ah, liebchen--If only it were that easy.

(Y/N): It never is.

(Cut to Red Skull leading them to a cliff.)

Red Skull: What you seek lies in front of you. As does what you fear.

Natasha: The stone's down there.

Red Skull: For two of you. For the other...

(Clint & Y/N join Natasha in looking down the cliff.)

Red Skull: In order to take the stone...you must lose that which you love. An everlasting exchange. A soul for a soul.

(Cut to Y/N & Natasha sitting together while Clint watches the Red Skull.)

Clint: How's it going? [chuckles] Jesus. Maybe he's making this shit up.

(Y/N): I mean, maybe.

Natasha: No. I don't think so.

Clint: Why? 'Cause he knows your daddy's name?

Natasha: I didn't.

(Y/N): Oh...

Natasha: Thanos left here with the stone...without his daughter. That's not a coincidence.

Clint: Yeah.

Natasha: Whatever it takes.

Clint: Whatever it takes.

(Y/N): Okay.

(Y/N stands up.)

(Y/N): I'll just take a swan dive off the cliff and I'll see you guys in a bit.

(Y/N begins walking towards the cliff but Natasha grabs his hand.)

Natasha: What do you think you're doing?

(Y/N): Natasha. You've seen me take quite a lot in our time together. And I'm always able to heal from it.

Clint: He brings up a good point, Nat.

Natasha: Clint, shut up. I can't let you do this, (Y/N).

(Y/N): Did you not hear what I just said? I'll heal from the fa-

Natasha: I heard you but this feels...permanent.

(Y/N): So what else are we supposed to do?

Natasha: If we don't get that stone...billions of people stay dead.

Clint: Yeah. Then I guess we both know who it's gotta be.

Natasha: I guess we do.

(Y/N): Yeah, me.

Natasha: No, it's gotta be me.

(Y/N): No.

Natasha: (Y/N).

(Y/N): It's not going to be you.

Natasha: [sighs] Clint, could you give us some time alone?

Clint: All right.

(Clint leaves Y/N & Natasha.)

(Y/N): I understand where you're coming from, Natasha. But you must be out of your mind if you think I'm letting my wife jump off that cliff to her death.

(Natasha holds Y/N's hand.)

Natasha: These past five years with you have been a blessing, (Y/N). I didn't deserve them.

(Y/N): Nat...

Natasha: But also during those five years, we've been trying to do one thing. Get to right here. That's all it's been about. Bringing them all back. That includes Wanda.

(Y/N): I know that! But...but I can't lose you, Natasha. I just can't.

Natasha: What do you think I'd do if you didn't come back? My heart always sinks when you die. If you truly die, (Y/N). I'll have no one.

(Y/N): That's not true.

Natasha: It is. At least with, you'll have your sister back.

(Y/N): What about Clint?

Natasha: He'll have his family back.

(Y/N): *teary eyed* Okay.

(Natasha kisses Y/N's forehead.)

(They walk towards Clint.)

Clint: No. You two can't be serious! (Y/N), you're just okay with this?

(Y/N): Of course I'm not!

(Clint walks up to Natasha.)

Clint: Natasha, you know what I've done. You know what I've become.

Natasha: Oh, I don't judge people on their worst mistakes. Because if I did, I wouldn't have said yes to (Y/N).

(Y/N): *teary eyed* I would've just kept on asking until you said yes.

Clint: You're a pain in my ass, you know that?

(Clint & Natasha touch foreheads.)

Clint: Okay. You win.

(Y/N punches Clint across the jaw.)

*THUD*

(Which knocks Clint out & drops him.)

Natasha: *while crying* Why did you do that?

(Y/N): Because...[sniffs] There was no way he was gonna let you jump off that cliff. So you two would've fought until eventually one of you jumps off the cliff.

Natasha: [sniffs] That probably would've happened.

(Y/N): *clears his throat* Mind if I walk with my wife one last time?

Natasha: *teary eyed* You better.

(Y/N & Natasha walk together right to the edge of the cliff.)

Natasha: *while crying* This is it.

(Y/N): [sighs] Yeah.

Natasha: *while crying* "Til death do we part we part," huh?

(Y/N): Natasha...

Natasha: [sniffs] Sorry.

(Y/N): Um-

(Natasha kisses Y/N passionately & he wraps his arms around her one last time.)

Natasha: I love you.

(Y/N): I love you too.

(Natasha falls backwards off the cliff. As she's falling, Y/N looks at his wedding ring.)

(Y/N): Ugh!

*SKINT*

(As Natasha is falling; Y/N dives after her, grabs her wrist, & stabs three of his claws into the side of the cliff until they stop.)

(Y/N): [strained growling]

Natasha: Killer...

(Y/N): [straining] Yeah, I know.

Natasha: Let me go.

(Y/N): No. I'll...I will see you in a bit.

Natasha: Don't!

(Y/N): I love you.

(Y/N throws Natasha back onto the top of the cliff.)

Natasha: [groans] No, no, no.

(Natasha crawls to the each of the cliff & looks down to see Y/N still on the side of the cliff.)

(Cut to Y/N looking up at Natasha.)

(Y/N): [deep breathe]

(Y/N retracts the three claws that are in the side of the cliff & falls to the bottom.)

(Cut to Clint & Natasha in a pool of water.)

Clint: [groans]

(Clint rubs his jaw.)

Clint: At least he didn't stab me in the shoulder again. Wait-

(Clint looks beside him to see...)

Natasha: [sobbing]

(Natasha sobbing beside him.)

Clint: Aw, Nat.

Natasha: *while crying* It was supposed to be me!

Clint: I'm so sorry.

(Clint is about to place a hand on her back but before he can, the both of them look at a small glowing light in someone's hand.)

(Y/N): [gasps]

Clint: [heavy sigh of relief]

(Y/N): Oh, man.

Clint: I really thought you weren't coming back there.

(Y/N): Honestly, me too.

(Y/N looks in his hand to see the Soul Stone.)

(Y/N): I got it.

(Natasha stands up & walks over to Y/N.)

(Y/N): Hey, Nat-

*CRACK*

(Natasha kicks Y/N in the face.)

(Y/N): [winces]

(Y/N touches his nose.)

(Y/N): You broke my nose!

Natasha: *glares* Don't pop it back into place.

(Y/N): Ugh, okay...

(Natasha walks away furiously.)

(Y/N): Hey, Clint? Do you think you could-

Natasha: Don't even think about, Barton!

Clint: Well, you heard your wife.

(Y/N): [frowns] Let's go.

(Cut to Avengers Base & the Quantum platform where everyone looks around to see the recovered stones.)

Banner: Did we get 'em all?

Rhodey: Are you telling me this actually worked?

(Tony looks at Y/N.)

Tony: Heads up, (Y/N). I'm pretty sure your nose is broken.

(Y/N): I've noti-

(Natasha quickly pops Y/N's nose back into place.)

(Y/N): Ahhh--thanks.

(Cut to Y/N & Natasha right before Rocket, Tony, & Banner finished making the gauntlet.)

(Y/N): I-

Natasha: You don't have to apologize.

(Y/N): I don't?

Natasha: No. Just promise me that you won't do something like that again.

(Y/N): I don't plan too.

Natasha: I need you to promise me.

(Y/N): Okay, I promise.

Natasha: Thank you.

(Natasha & Y/N kiss.)

(Y/N): Did you really need to kick me in the face?

Natasha: Yes. Yes, I did.

(Cut to after the gauntlet has been made.)

Rocket: All right, the glove's ready. Question is, who's gonna snap their freakin' fingers?

(They all look at Y/N.)

(Y/N): Uh-

Natasha: That's gonna have to be a no. My husband's already cheated death once today. I'd prefer it if he didn't cheat death twice.

(Y/N): Well said.

Tony: Besides, the last thing we need is you breaking the glove with your claws.

Thor: I'll do it.

Tony: Excuse me?

(Thor walks towards the gauntlet.)

Thor: It's okay.

Tony: Stop, stop. Slow down.

Steve: Thor. Just wait. We haven't decided who's gonna put it on yet.

Thor: I'm sorry. What, we're all just sitting around waiting for the right opportunity?

Scott: We should at least discuss it.

Natasha: It wouldn't hurt.

Thor: Look, sitting here staring at the thing is not gonna bring everybody back. I'm the strongest Avenger, okay? So, this responsibility falls upon me.

(Y/N): In your current state, that's debatable.

Tony: Normally, you're right.

Thor: It's my duty.

Tony: It's not about that-

Thor: [shushes] It's not that--Stop it! Just let me do it. Just let me do something good. Something right.

Tony: Look, it's not just the fact that glove is channeling enough energy to light up a continent. I'm telling you. You're in no condition.

Thor: What do you think is coursing through my veins right now?

Rhodey: Cheese Whiz?

(Y/N): Whipped cream?

Thor: Lightning.

Tony: Yeah.

Thor: Lightning.

Banner: Lightning won't help you, pal. It's gotta be me. You saw what those stones did to Thanos. They almost killed him. None of you could survive. Not even you, (Y/N).

(Y/N): Well then.

Steve: How do we know you will?

Banner: We don't. But the radiation's mostly gamma. It's like...I was made for this.

[There should be a GIF or video here. Update the app now to see it.]

(Imagine Y/N standing in front Natasha.)

[There should be a GIF or video here. Update the app now to see it.]

(Start the video at 0:23.)

(Cut to Clint, Natasha, Y/N in the sewer system.)

(Y/N): [coughing] You two okay?

Clint & Natasha: Yeah.

(Clint looks at the gauntlet & dusts it.)

*DISTANT GROWLS*

Natasha: You heard that right?

(Y/N): Yeah...

(Clint draws an arrow, turns around, & fires the arrow in the dark passageway. Lighting it up to reveal a horde of Outriders.)

Clint: Okay.

(Y/N): *starts backing away slowly*

Natasha: Move!

(The trio runs with the gauntlet as the Outriders chase them.)

Natasha: *while running* This reminds me of Budapest.

Clint: *while running* [chuckles] Yeah, it does.

(Y/N): *while running* If either of you bring up Budapest one more time-

(As the trio is running, Clint places explosive arrows around the sewer & blows them up around the Outriders.)

*EXPLOSION*

Clint, Natasha, & (Y/N): [grunts]

(Clint stands up & shoots a rope up a passageway.)

Clint: I can't take you both up with me.

(Y/N): Take Natasha.

Natasha: What about you?

(Y/N): Oh, I'll be fine. The things chasing us though, won't be.

(Clint goes up the passageway with Natasha leaving Y/N.)

*SKINT*

(Y/N): Come on!

Outriders: [snarls]

(Y/N): [yells]

(Y/N is able to kill some of the Outriders but they soon pile on top of Y/N. Scratching & biting him endlessly.)

(Y/N): [angirly growls]

(Instantly, it's like Y/N has flipped a switch & is now slashing each of the Outriders with ease. Body parts of the Outriders going across the room. Heads, arms, legs, & hands everywhere. Eventually, Y/N has killed all of the Outriders except for one that has it's jaws clapped around his throat.)

(Y/N): [muddled] Last one, huh?

(Y/N beheads the Outrider. It's body hits the ground & it lets go of his throat.)

(Y/N): Finally.

(Y/N crawls his way up the passageway to see Clint, Natasha, Gamora, & two Nebulas. One, which is dead.)

(Y/N): Um, what'd I miss?

As This Was Happening...

(Cut to Y/N & Natasha in the midst of the fight.)

Natasha: This is kinda romantic.

Wolverine: Of course it is. What can be more romantic than a couple and their friends fighting an alien and his army for the fate of the universe?

(Natasha shoots Outriders around her as Y/N rides a top one of Thanos' Chitauri Gorillas & beheads it.)

Natasha: How're you holding up, killer?

Wolverine: I'm fantastic.

(Y/N looks over to see Wanda fighting Thanos.)

Wolverine: Wow, my sister's a badass.

(Currently, Black Panther has tossed the gauntlet to Spider-Man, who's about to be swarmed by Outriders.)

Iron Man: (Y/N), the kid-

Wolverine: I'm on it!

(Y/N runs over to assist Peter in killing the Outriders.)

Spider-Man: (Y/N)!

Wolverine: Long time no see, kid.

Spider-Man: I have so much to tell you. Like Mr. Stark hugged me which was nice. I'd give you a hug but I'm kinda busy at the moment.

(Y/N rips an Outrider in half.)

Outrider: [painful squeal]

Wolverine: [chuckles] Hug me after.

(Another Chitauri Gorilla is about to crush Y/N but before it's able to, Natasha runs up it's back, sits behind its head, & literally shoots its brains out. The Chitauri Gorilla slumps down in front of Y/N & Peter.)

Natasha: [sighs] So this is the kid?

Wolverine: Yes, ma'am.

Spider-Man: Wow, (Y/N). Black Widow is your girlfriend?

Wolverine: Actually, she's my wife.

Spider-Man: You're married?!

(Cut to Wanda lifting Thanos.)

Thanos: Rain fire!

Corvus Glaive: But, sire, our troops!

Thanos: Just do it!

(One of Thanos' ships starts to fire upon the heroes. One of the blasts even flings Wanda away.)

Wolverine: No!

(Y/N runs to his sister & covers her from the oncoming blasts.)

Wolverine: Some reunion, huh, Wanda?

Wanda: You could say that again.

(Our heroes begin to get overwhelmed by the blasts until they start firing upwards at something else.)

Falcon: What the hell is this?

Iron Man: Friday, what are they firing at?

F.R.I.D.A.Y.: Something just entered the upper atmosphere.

[There should be a GIF or video here. Update the app now to see it.]

(Start the video at 1:20.)

Wolverine: Not bad, Danvers. Not bad at all.

(After this, Spider-Man hands the gauntlet to Captain Marvel. The other women superheroes join her in taking on Thanos' army.)

(Cut to Y/N rejoining Natasha.)

Wolverine: Did you enjoy your time with your girlfriends?

Natasha: Yeah. You guys get to do that all the time, so why not us?

(Captain Marvel is about to send the stones back but before she can, Thanos throws his blade into the machine, effectively destroying it. The struggle for the gauntlet begins. Thanos backhands Iron Man away from him, Thor & Captain America try to pin Thanos down with Stormbreaker but Thanos headbutts Thor away from him. And tosses Cap aside & knocks him out with a punch to the face. Captain Marvel flies in to meet Thanos but he tosses her aside as well. Thanos puts the gauntlet on & is about to snap his fingers until Captain Marvel prevents him from snapping. Thanos headbutts her but she's unfazed by it. Thanos then punches her with a Power Stoned infused fist which sends her flying. It's Y/N's turn to attempt to stop Thanos as he's running straight for him.)

*SKINT*

(With his claws out, Y/N continuously slashes Thanos anywhere he can. From across his back to his chest, to his legs to thighs. Y/N is about to cut the hand wearing the gauntlet off. His claws barely touch Thanos' skin. Before they can go any deeper, Thanos, using the Time Stone, stops Y/N's hand from going down any further. Using the Space Stone, Thanos sends Y/N's arms into him. Resulting in Y/N stabbing his own throat with his own claws.)

Wolverine: [gurgles blood]

(Y/N slumps to the ground. Tony tries to pry the gauntlet off Thanos but he backhands him away from him.)

[There should be a GIF or video here. Update the app now to see it.]

(Thanos's army & Thanos himself turn to dust thanks to Tony snapping his fingers. But, unfortunately, Tony died as a result of using the stones.)

Stark Household
At Tony's Funeral

[There should be a GIF or video here. Update the app now to see it.]

(Imagine Natasha, Y/N, & Wanda standing together next to Clint's family.)

(Cut to the Maximoff siblings standing by the riverside shortly afterwards.)

(Y/N): You know, I wish there was a way that we could let him now. That we won.

(Y/N looks at his sister.)

(Y/N): That we won.

Wanda: He knows.

(Y/N gives his sister a side hug & she reciprocates. They begin walking away from the riverside.)

(Y/N): I missed you.

Wanda: I missed you too.

(The Maximoff siblings continue walking together.)

Wanda: So you and Natasha got married?

(Y/N): Yeah, we did.

Wanda: Sorry I wasn't here to see it.

(Y/N): That was obviously out of your control.

Wanda: I know. I just hope there are pictures.

(Y/N): Don't worry. There are plenty of pictures.

(Natasha sees Y/N & Wanda, so she walks over to them.)

Natasha: It's good to see you two together again.

(Y/N & Wanda look at each other.)

Wanda: Yeah. Yeah, it is.

(Wanda & Natasha hug, Natasha shows off her wedding ring, & Wanda gasps at how beautiful it is. As Y/N is watching this, he can't help but smile.)

RayTheRipper: I've got another question, do you guys want me to Spider-Man: Far From Home or do you want to jump right into WandaVision? Let me know what you guys want so I can start writing the next chapter!
