"(Y/N)? CAN YOU HEAR ME?"

(Y/N) opened her eyes widely at the sentence, making the person that was calling her jump back from the shock of seeing her regain her consciousness as she blinked several times to remove the black dotes in her vision.

The person that was standing above her helped her up, and she dusted the grime and dirt from her suit and saw her surroundings. She was in the same spot she stood before she disappeared, in the exact reddish rocks from the planet. The same place she'd lost him.

"Stephen? What — How?" (Y/N) questioned.

"I know it would sound crazy, but we've been gone for over five years," Stephen spoke up gently, trying to hit her with the news with care since he didn't know how she'd react.

"Five years?!" she exclaimed in surprise, her mind instantly rushing to Kiara back home and her friends, not knowing if they were safe or not. "Why are we back all of the sudden? Where are the others?"

"I don't have time to explain everything. But I need you to be prepared. They need us," Stephen answered. "Come on."

"Steph," she called. "Do you know anything about Kia? Did she survive this?"

"No," he shook his head and a look of worry formed in his eyes. "When this is over, we'll find out."

(Y/N) felt the slightest inch of worry remove from herself and Stephen formed a portal that shimmered with orange sparks and the view that appeared in front of (Y/N) was the complete opposite to the planet she was standing on. What was known as the Avengers compound was completely destroyed and covered in debris and rubble, where Captain America was surprised to see more people joining in the fight.

(Y/N) thrusted her hands to the side to land in the dirt floor of the destroyed compound before she lowered to the ground smoothly as Stephen had his red cape blowing back with the wind as he set foot on the ground. Drax and Mantis were on either side of him, and Quill flew in with his mask on before he removed it, holding his identical guns in his hands. When a familiar sound hit her ears, (Y/N)'s breath hitched. She saw how no one other than Peter was swinging himself to join the others before he landed on a rock. His mask was pulled back and she could see that he looked the exact same as before, just like her.

The look of relief was evident in Captain America's eyes when he saw how many others were appearing from different portals when King T'Challa from Wakanda yelled out in Xhosa to send a command to his troops, all chanting the same phrase over again as they stumped their spears to the ground.

Wanda Maximoff descended to the ground slowly and red mist shimmered around her when she did, joining on Valkyrie's side with her pegasus while Wong appeared with hundreds of people following after him, all forming the same orange shields in their hands when they clasped them together.

"Is that everyone?" Stephen asked Wong.

"What? You wanted more?" Wong scoffed and shook his head in disbelief before a loud rumble caught his eye.

Scott Lang broke through the remains of the compound in his huge size and opened his fist to place Bruce, Rhodey and Rocket with the others, being in the same height as all the other jets and spaceships that were entering the battlefield from above.

(Y/N) formed balls of blue energy in her hands as Captain America's yell echoed through her ears. "Avengers. . ."

The Mjolnir returned to his hand and Thor joined his side before he spoke up again. "Assemble."

Everyone yelled in unison and charged towards Thanos's army, which was filled with the Black Order, the Chitauri, the Outriders and many more. When he saw what was happening, Thanos pointed his double-blade sword towards the group and his army followed the order, running up to join the opposing team in the middle.

(Y/N) thrusted her hands to the side and joined the others that were in the air too, where Tony Stark was in the lead while Peter was using Scott's enormous hand to swing himself into the battle and Quill was flying on the side. (Y/N) and Wanda flew on either side of Stephen before they charged at different directions, aiming their respective powers at the army in the air.

In the ground, Scott punched a Leviathan directly in the face and this caused it to collapse in the ground, all while Shuri and Okoye fought with their own weapons. Pepper and Tony were in the sky, firing laser blasts at the aliens coming their way as they stood back to back.

(Y/N) joined the fight in the ground and was able to stop the enormous piece of concrete that was hurled her way by Ebony Maw, who sneered when he saw her block his attack with her powers.

"I thought I got rid of you," she groaned.

Ebony raised one finger again and pulled a long iron rod from the ground and aimed it at her. She raised a hand in the air to change its direction and wrapped him in blue mist, all while he let out a groan of protest. (Y/N) seemed to have the upper hand, until she saw Ebony lift a finger again and take something in the air, hitting her in the back to make her loose focus.

Ebony Maw smirked when he saw this and raised a closed fist to cause more damage on (Y/N) when two webs stuck onto his back, restraining his hands back and this gave (Y/N) the perfect opportunity to lift the iron rod with her powers before piercing it through Ebony's body.

"(Y/N)! That was too gross!" A familiar voice complained, and she'd never been happier to hear his voice. "I'm gonna be traumatized."

Peter's mask was pulled back as he ran into her view and (Y/N) froze in her spot, seeing her best friend safe and sound after he'd disappeared in front of her eyes.

"(Y/N)? You okay?" he asked. "Did you make it out with Mr. Stark? How — Ouch!"

(Y/N) had pulled him into a tight embrace and squeezed him to reassure herself that it wasn't a dream of hers. Peter let out a sigh of content when he held her in his arms and returned the gesture with the same amount of strength.

"I didn't," (Y/N) confessed, slightly pulling away to see him, neither of them caring of the battle. "I saw myself turning into dust right after you. But seeing you disappear right in front of me was horrible."

Peter frowned at her words, since he had thought that (Y/N) was going to be safe from the titan's plan to eliminate half of the population. "I'm sorry. I should've known — I — "

"Hey, hey," (Y/N) said, cutting his stutter. "It's okay. Both of us are here now. We're okay."

Peter nodded at her words and leaned forward to connect his forehead with hers, a friendly habit he'd done with her for a long time. "We're okay."

A loud grunt coming from a few feet away caught their attention, turning to the source of the sound to see how Cull Obsidian had knocked a familiar man in a red and golden suit to the ground and aimed his weapon at him while he was still in the ground. Peter and (Y/N) shared a look and they both made their way towards the fight.

(Y/N) formed a shield in front of Tony to protect him from Cull Obsidian's blow and Peter shot two webs at his back and tugged on them, pulling the alien back into the ground before Scott smashed his foot against him, being squashed to death.

Once that was taken care off, (Y/N) dropped the shield and ran up to help Tony up with Peter following behind her with a yelp. "Hey!"

"You alright?" (Y/N) asked as she grabbed on Tony's arm to pull him on his feet.

"Holy cow!" Peter grasped his other arm and the two were distracted to see the shocked and relieved look on Tony's eyes. "You will not believe what's been going on."

"Do you remember when the three of us were in space? And I got all dusty? And I must've passed out, because I woke up and you were gone. (Y/N) surely went through the same thing," Peter ranted. "But Doctor Strange was there, right? And he was like 'It's been five years. Come on, they need us.' And then he started doing the yellow sparkly thing he does all the time."

Tony shook his head and moved forward to wrap his arms around Peter and (Y/N) at the same time, squeezing them together. She even felt how Tony exhaled a breath he'd been holding and how Peter accepted the hug with hesitance.

"This is comforting," (Y/N) muttered into the hug.
