Chapter 604: The grand fight (9)
John flew around breathing fire while the others were running or flying in all directions and making sure that nobody in the team were getting infected by a symbiote. One tried to take over 616-Captain America, only to be beaten down badly by the other Steve and Diana.
Steve and Diana had been working together in this war, and since 616-Steve wanted to see what was so special about the woman that his counterpart had chosen as a partner, so out of curiosity, he too joined. And for the first time he felt an inferiority complex. His counterpart looked like he had all the things he could ask for in life.
A good partner, someone who had lived through ages and someone who could understand him perfectly. This life was envious. But it was something that he could never get. After Knull's problem he would have to be the de-facto leader since Fury would resign after this and Quake would take over. But he and Maria Hill would have to help the new leader a lot so they would have responsibilities. It felt like his responsibilities would never end.
John was right. The problems would never end if they don't grasp the root of it and kill it. It was for this reason that the other Avengers team was so successful in whatever they did. They needed to implement the same theory here. But the problem was that here nobody trusted each other totally.
There was a whole lot of history in each of the Avengers and they couldn't just mingle with each other like best friends. In fact some of them had been enemies for a long time (Red Hulk and Hulk, Red Hulk being Ross, yes the same Ross from movies and he joined Avengers and in fact helped Hulk in his search for One Below All)
So there were always problems.
"No. But I got called by it. I am on the way to receive it." Norrin said over comms. This was a relief for John, as he feared that Light hadn't grown up well till now and they would never receive its help. Only Light could purify the Darkness and help John take control of the Hive.
This was the ultimate goal.
In the meantime, in Baxter Building there was another story.
"This thing is amazing. It can bring any electronic device to life. No wonder you had a smile on your cheeky face."
"What can I say, we have all the good toys."
