Time Trouble Pt. 1
You and Riri landed on the ship and looked around. It looked to be deserted. Shame. You wanted to meet some pirates. You looked around the deck but sighed. You looked down through the square hole in the floor and into the belly of the ship.
Y/N: Wow. Looks like everyone just vanished.
Riri: Maybe their ship was the only thing that appeared here?
Y/N: Maybe.
Suddenly there was a noise near one of the barrels. You ignited your hands while Riri aimed her blaster. You both watched as the barrel was knocked over and out came a familer face.
Riri/Y/N: LOCKHEED!
Lockheed: Wah!
He flew towards you and rested himself on top of your head.
Y/N: How did you get here buddy?
Riri: He must've gotten separated from Kitty. Maybe he came here to look for her.
You petted his head before looking around some more. There wasn't anything here.
Y/N: Well this blows.
Suddenly the sky looked like it was glitching. Lockheed dove under your shirt as you and Riri watched.
???: Citizens of New York!
Riri: What the hell?
Suddenly an image appeared.
???: I am Kang the Conqueror. I am the one who has placed you all here.
Y/N: At least I can put a face to a name. Now I know who's ass I'm gonna kick.
Kang: You are in no danger. I have simply placed your timelines together to create the perfect loop. Now, no one will age and no one will die of natural causes. You are all children of Kang.
Riri: I've seen enough cult documentaries to know where this is going.
Y/N: Right. If only we knew where he was.
Kang: I will keep a close eye on you all.
The sky returned to "normal" and you were left even more confused.
Y/N: Jesus. First Amora with her weird plan and now this? Why is he even doing this?
Riri: The database says he's a dictator in the 31st century. Maybe he wanted to start thing sooner?
You sighed. Whatever it was, it wasn't good. The only help you had was Riri, who was super useful with her tech and brains, and Carol, who was a total bitch the one and only time you have met her. Lockheed popped out and rested on your head again.
Y/N: We seriously need to figure this out. If only we could access every file the Avengers have on him.
Riri: Well Avengers Tower is completely gone and we can't even fly up to the upstate facility. The only options are somehow finding something modern that somehow connects to the database or find someone who already knows.
You both gave it some thought before you snapped your fingers.
Riri/Y/N: Viv!
Viv was connected to the Avengers' system so she would have info on Kang and how he operates. There was only one problem.
Riri: She's in another Time Circle.
Y/N: Is there anyway we can hop between them?
Riri shrugged. Looks like this wasn't going to be so easy. Suddenly your senses went off and you turned around just as a large ball of metal came flying past you. You and Riri looked at each other. You both rushed to the side of the ship and saw a much bigger ship sailing towards you.
Y/N: YES! I'll go find the cannons!
Riri stopped you by grabbing your wrist.
Riri: I have rockets and you are pretty much unstoppable. Why do we need cannons?
You gave it some thought before shrugging.
Y/N: So we could be like actual pirates?
Riri rolled her eyes before activating her suit. She blasted up into the sky while you watched. You looked at Lockheed and sighed.
Y/N: So be it.
You blasted off to follow her and Lockheed followed. You looked down at the ship and hesitated. Why were you even attacking? It's not like it's your ship or anything. Plus they didn't seem like a major threat. You had bigger fish to fry.
Y/N: Riri!
She looked back at you.
Y/N: Let's just go. We have no business here.
Riri looked back down at the ship before nodding. You both blasted off back towards shore. Once you were back on the main land, Lockheed returned to your head and you realized your were near where the Avengers Tower would be.
Y/N: This blows. There has to be some way we can hop between Time Circles.
???: There is.
You and Riri both turned around and fould Dr. Strange floating towards you. He landed and looked at you.
Dr. Strange: It is good to see again.
Y/N: Likewise. You said there's a way to go between Time Circles?
Strange nodded.
Riri: And how do we do that?
Dr. Strange: I will reveal all but first, you must know something. Have you noticed that the two of you are the only ones from the Strikers and the Program?
You both nodded. It suddenly hit you.
Y/N: We're both the leaders.
Dr. Strange: You pick up fast. Kang did this purposely. He had separate the strongest and smartest from the weakest. That means your Time Circle is unique in that it features various times rather than focusing on one. Your friends aren't just scattered through Circles, they're scattered through time itself.
Riri: That could be problematic. New York hasn't always been so accepting.
Y/N: I can see a few problems. So how do we get to them?
Dr. Strange pulled off his necklace and handed it to you.
Dr. Strange: This is The Eye of Agamotto. Inside is a very powerful tool that would allow you to travel between the Time Circles.
He did an action with his hands and you repeated it which opened the eye. Inside was a green stone of some kind.
Riri: The Time Stone?!
Y/N: The what now?
Dr. Strange: The Time Stone. One of the Infinity Stones. You cannot lose this or you will be lost in time forever. You must use this to defeat Kang no matter the cost. I trust you with all my heart Y/N. Do not let me down.
You nodded.
Y/N: Thank you for your help. We'll be sure to return it as soon as we kick some time traveling ass.
Strange smiled before floating back up.
Dr. Strange: Godspeed.
He flew away while you and Riri looked at the Time Stone. Lockheed let out a noise and you smiled before petting him.
Y/N: Alright. I guess we should get started. Now, where would I throw an Android if I was a time traveling dictator?
Riri gave it some thoight before snapping.
Riri: Somewhere she wouldn't be able to use technology. It has to be in the past.
Y/N: But how far?
Riri: Colonial times would be my guess.
You opened the Time Stone and smiled.
Y/N: Nasty plumbing and crooked teeth here we come.
Riri: I said colonial times not Florida.
You just looked at her before activating the stone.
Y/N: We're coming for you Viv.
You were surrounded by a bright green light before you vanished.
