Molly streached as she walked off of the Quinjet. They had finally made it to Symkaria where they were going to check up on the Reality Stone. They had already sent word ahead of time thanks to Dane agreeing to be an honorary Avenger. Speaking of which...

Dane: Welcome.

Molly smiled at the sight of the handsome man. Just cause she was married now doesn't mean she couldn't look.

Katie: Hey Dane. How's the wife?

Dane: As stubborn as ever. I fall in love with her more every day.

He smiled as he hugged her before turning to the others.

Dane: It's good to see everyone. Y/N told me that you were here to check in on the Reality Stone.

Shang-Chi: Yeah. There's some bad people who want it. We just came to see if you guys had it safe..

Dane: Silver has her best guards watching over it, as do I. Regardless, I will be glad to show it to you.

Luna: We appreciate it.

Dane: Nonsense. Anything for my friends.

Shang-Chi: And we're glad to accept.

Quentin: L-Lead the way.

Dane nodded and lead the team through the castle grounds.

Quentin: So Symkaria a-and New Avalon a-are now j-joint countries?

Dane: Yes. After me and Symkaria were married, our countries became one. While we are still acting independently from your world governments, we manage just fine.

Molly: And the armies?

Dane: Unnessacary but present. We do not go to war but we are ready if need be.

Shang-Chi: I guess it helps to have two of the best warriors as leaders.

Dane: Please. We have nothing on people like you or Y/N.

Luna: Don't sell yourself short! You're a master swordsman and an Avenger.

Dane just smiled sweetly which made the girls' hearts flutter. Quentin and Shang-Chi shared an annoyed look as they entered the castle.

Dane: My dear, our guests have arrived.

Silvija turned around from the man she was speaking to and smiled. She dismissed the man and walked over to the group.

Silvija: Hello. I'm glad you all got here safe.

Shang-Chi: It's good to see you again your highness.

Silvija: Please, we're past formalities. You're among friends.

Quentin: W-We appreciate y-you for agreeing t-to see us.

Dane: We should head over to the vault then.

Katie: Yes. While we go, maybe you can tell us about any precautions you may have in place?

Dane and Silvija lead the group down through the lower levels of the palace. As they walked, Dane and Silvija told them what they had in place should anyone try to take the Stone. Just by looking at the place, Molly could tell that they were pretty much prepared for anything. At least, she hoped they were.

They finally made it to the final level of the place where they found a large vault protected by both soliders and mechs. Dane and Silvija approached the door while the team stood back.

Shang-Chi: This place is pretty secured.

Luna: I find it hard to believe anyone could ever make it past the first floor.

Katie: Can you blame them? Symkaria was a military country for so long. Even Avalon was known for their conquests back in the day.

Molly turned toward the stairs when she heard the frantic footsteps echoing through the halls. Dane and Silvija even stopped what they were doing as one of the guards appeared.

Guard: Your highness!

Silvija: What is it?

Guard: It's Foxtrot, your majesty! He's escaped.

Shang-Chi: What?!

There was a loud noise from above which sounded like an explosion.

Dane: So, he broke out of prison.

Silvija: We have to go.

Katie: And we'll help. The Stone is secured enough for us. Let's go.

Molly rushed up the stairs along with the others in order to stop this new foe. They finally reached the main floor before they rushed outside where they saw a single man taking on all of the guards.

Shang-Chi: Just as crazy as the day we met him.

Dane: Crazier. Trust me.

Katie: Well, let's take care of this.

She drew her bow and fired off an arrow. To everyone's surprise, Foxtrot caught it.

Foxtrot: Not bad kid. You ain't the only one with friends though.

Everyone watched as his body was suddenly surrounded by a grey goo of somekind. It didn't take long for Molly to recognize it.

Molly: It's a symbiote!

Quentin: L-Like Venom?

Foxtrot: Venom? No. We are better. Stronger. We are, Riot!

Shang-Chi: Ok. That's pretty gross.

Luna: I agree.

Riot let out a loud roar as his hand turned into an ax. He swung it around as everyone leaped out of the way. Dane pulled out his blade and shield while Silvia pulled out her pistols. Shang-Chi swung around his chained nunchucks and summoned his chi. He released a powerful attack which caused Riot to stumble back a bit.

Shang-Chi: How do we deal with this thing?

Molly: Symbiotes are weak against loud sounds and fire!

Quentin: On it!

Quentin flew up and summoned some of his smoke. The drones moved in and created an illusion of a dragon as the drones relased some flames that caused Riot to cry out in pain.

Katie: Good thing Riri just finished making these new arrows for me!

She pulled back her bow and fired two arrows which stabbed into the ground around the symbiote. They popped open and a sudden loud screeching sound came from the tips.

Riot cried again before he created a hammer with his hand and slammed into the ground which broke the arrows. He then began to swing around frantically which broke enough drones to stop the fire long enough to escape.

Silvia rolled over and began to open fire as she avoided his attacks. Riot was about to strike her from the side, but Dane was there to block it. Luna moved in and froze the ground which ended up reaching to the monster's waist.

Molly: I got this one!

Molly rushed forward and punched the ice which shattered. Riot ended up falling over which gave Katie and Quentin the time they needed to once again assault him with fire and sounds.

Dane: We need to restrain him!

Molly: We have to separate the symbiote from him!

Shang-Chi: Got it!

Shang-Chi dove into the fire, the Chi protecting his body, before he reached for the symbiote and pulling with all his strength. He tossed it aside as Luna froze Foxtrot and Quentin sent his drones over to the grey blob on the floor.

Katie: Did we do it?

Everyone surrouned the symbiote and watched as it slowly twitched before it became motionless.

Molly: Torch it.

Quentin's drone set fire to the blob which earned a low scream before it turned into nothing but ash.

Molly: Nice.

Dane: That was, something.

Silvija: Indeed. I can't say I ever fought something like that before.

Avengers: You get used to it.
