Chapter 34 Civil War (5/5)
"Then you leave me no choice." Vision prepared to fight as Captain America charged ahead. The next moment both Steve and Bucky were flung far ahead with a red glow on their legs.
Wanda had pushed them away from the conflict and sent them closer to the hangar.
'This is so similar to canon…' Alex thought.
Vision ignored her and tried to fly after them but was stopped by Wanda compressing her chaos energy and launching a Chaos Beam at Vision. He was forced to confront Wanda but he knew that she had some obscure way to cause a lot of problems for him so he tried to find a way to stop Steve and Bucky.
That way came in the form of Vision launching a beam from his mind stone at a radio tower at the side of the entrance of the hanger and destroying it. It ended up falling right on their path to the Quinjet.
"Keep going, Cap." Steve heard from the intercom just as he and Bucky were slowing down.
Daisy aka Quake was using her vibration manipulation to keep the tower in the air and bought them precious time to enter the hanger, though just as they entered, she was hit by an extremely strong sonic wave that made her fall right to the ground while clutching her ears in pain and screaming.
'Fuck… Even at this distance, it's painful…' Alex almost whimpered in pain from the horrible feeling of the soundwaves that Blackbolt released. And he was inside Wanda at the moment who was nowhere close to the place of the impact.
But it was all finally over. Steve and Bucky were already at their destination.
*THUMP*
In the background, a loud thump sounded as Ant-Man fell to the ground after Spider-Man's Empire Strikes Back idea. He had wrapped his webs around Ant-Man's legs and Tony and Rhodey had used their thrusters at full capacity to kick Ant-Man down.
"It's over…" Wanda sighed in relief as she saw the Quinjet leaving with Stark, Rhodey, Sam, and Vision after it.
[It's just starting Wanda… I don't want to see you end up in the raft. You need to go all out.] She heard Alex's voice in her head.
[I know…] Wanda got a determined look on her face.
…
Inside the Hanger.
"I've been waiting for you." T'Challa's voice sounded out as he stood in front of Steve and Bucky in a standoff.
"Your highness…" Steve looked at Black Panther. They'd already found out his identity since he'd officially revealed it before joining up with Tony.
"I did not bomb the UN. Nor did I kill your father." Bucky tried to reason with him.
"I don't care." T'Challa didn't believe him and lunged at him with his usual panther-style martial arts. Before he could reach them though, he was punched in the face by an invisible force that sent him flying.
"Hey, Cap." White Knight revealed herself.
"Nat…" Steve called out in a really soft voice that she was only able to understand since she'd been looking at him. He made sure that T'Challa didn't understand what he meant.
"How'd you find out?" Nat was surprised that he found her out so quickly.
"I noticed your fight against Tony's armor. I could recognize that fighting style anywhere. Also White Knight… The name is a glaring reveal." He told her while holding back his laughter.
"I should really learn a different style of fighting… Even if it's for appearances." She seemed to be grumbling but was smiling under her mask.
"I'll take care of T'Challa. You guys leave." She told them before going invisible and dodging T'Challa's attack and countering him with a kick.
"Thanks a lot. I owe you." Steve called out before getting into the jet and leaving.
"You already owe me a lot." Nat shocked T'Challa with a heavy bolt of lightning which seemed to work momentarily but not completely.
But since she was invisible she could keep him occupied for some time without any issues. In the end, Nat stalled him enough that Steve and Bucky left.
Before she could do anything after that though. There was a red glow in her vision.
'Wanda…' That was her last thought before she fell into a deep sleep.
…
"We did good with all that training, huh?" Alex smiled as he held Wanda in his arms and looked at her with a proud smile.
"Huff huff huff." Wanda couldn't say anything as she was pretty much wheezing from how tired she was. She'd just released a huge shockwave that knocked out every single human in a five-mile radius.
[Take care of me, Alex…] She said in a spoiled tone as she fainted. Her output just now had been far greater than she's ever had before. Although her strengthened physique was able to handle it. Her mind was extremely tired and she fainted as Alex held her in his arms.
[Rest up honey. I'll take care of everything now. You did amazingly.] He telepathically conveyed to her and she smiled imperceptibly.
'Such a cutie…' He couldn't help but think that she was cute as she slept peacefully in his arms. He pushed her hair behind her ear and caressed the side of her face before kissing her forehead.
"Let's get to work…" He stood up with Wanda in his arms.
The police were going to be here soon and he had to get out of this place as soon as possible. And Alex wasn't sure whether Vision or any of the others would be coming back or not. The Quinjet is extremely fast and he hoped that he wouldn't have to deal with those guys for a while.
The whole fight was very hectic for him and also gave him perspective. He was extremely weak in the grand scheme of Marvel.
The MCU already had nerfed versions of the heroes that were in the comic books and he wasn't a match for most of them. Hell, he was having trouble with Tony's random mass-produced suits.
'I need to get stronger…' He felt conviction bubbling inside him. For now, though he focused on escaping.
Alex didn't care about the others. The only reason he went so far was that he didn't want to get Wanda and Natasha targeted.
He was going to help everyone from Cap's side escape while going away separately with Wanda and Nat.
In the end, after all this, they were all fugitives and had to disappear from the public eye.
Alex soon found two undamaged jets far away from the battlefield. He split into a large number of bodies and started piling up all of the people that were here to help Cap in one of the planes while he put Wanda and Natasha in the other.
It took him less than a minute since had an abundance of manpower.
That was when he split into two clones and expanded to cover both of those planes. He was going to use the camouflaging effect to make sure that he didn't end up getting bombed or tracked.
He had already devoured three people with knowledge of flying with good proficiency when he killed everyone in Oscorp in the Amazing Spider-Man world. He'd also devoured an experienced commercial pilot with some influence from his second world or the Research Earth.
He wasn't worried about not knowing how to fly the plane, especially since it was all mostly autopilot. He went to the cockpit and started flying both planes.
As the planes were lifting off he saw the cops surrounding the airport while Vision returned at Tony's orders to take care of the mess that had been left behind.
Though he was already too late. Both of the planes had already flown far away in a camouflaged state.
'Thankfully Vision doesn't completely understand how to use the Mind Stone. Otherwise, he would've been able to locate my mental waves even though I'm miles away from the airport. I'm not proficient enough with mind manipulation to completely hide my own mental waves.' Alex thought as he focused on flying away at full sustainable speed from the battlefield. He'd already stocked up on a whole lot of fuel and would be able to run each plane constantly for more than 48 hours. Probably more if he went with it more efficiently.
The plane with just Nat and Wanda had even more time of constant flight— 64 hours. This was because the weight in that plane was much lesser than the other one which was filled with people.
He also took this chance to form a preliminary Level 0 bond with Jessica who was still knocked out in the overcrowded plane. He was driving that plane in his Batman persona.
He could've bonded with Quake too, but he didn't want to. People might mistake him for some sort of masochist if he bonded with her.
Her powers were literally the bane of Alex's existence and she didn't have anything called vibration immunity that he could leverage.
'Though that would be an overpowered defense ability…' Alex thought about vibration immunity.
'Fucking vibrator girl…' He had felt quite a bit of pain from her and Blackbolt's stray attacks throughout the fight.
'So… Now what?' He thought as he flew the planes and waited for everyone to wake up.
He was also going to tell Nat and Wanda that he'd bonded with both of them. He didn't know if they would mind, but he would have to deal with whatever happened after that.
