Death

And then a huge wave of fire that was as big as the size of a galaxy hit Black Winter. The burning fire which didn't have any source to burn, no oxygen still burnt fiercely as it touched Black Winter.

And finally there was a cry of pain. A cry which echoed on the ears of everyone present.

John had used almost all his power in this single attack. He chose fire because he being a host of Phoenix Force was on the side of life while Black Winter was on the side of death.

And this calculation of his paid off. This time it did more damage to Black Winter than it did the previous time. And this attack just wiped away more of Black Winter than it did the previous time.

This buffer time was enough for Wayne and Clark to get the stones. Two people were required for this because John wasn't sure if a single person would be powerful enough to hold the infinity stone. Especially the power stone. That is something that shouldn't be touched by a mortal.

And thus the race against time began. Wayne and Clark took the infinity stones and were returning back.

In the meantime, Black Winter, which had receded by a lot, was coming back again. And this time with more ferocity. Tony and others who were nearby saw this and knew they might need another attack to stop Black Winter for some moments.

"Avengers, we need to stop him for one more time. Let's do it." Victor shouted and then all his thrusters to shoot at Black Winter. Seeing that all the members of the Avengers, Green Lanterns and Blue Lanterns attacked using all means possible.

Black Winter by now knew there must be something going on so he tried attacking with more power this time, finally getting serious. But the fire of John had injured him considerably. Black Winter couldn't muster all his strength back in an instant to stop the all out attacks of all the people.

Trigon on the other hand finally got his hands on all the infinity stones. Bruce and Clark had returned by that time. Victor gave him the old set of boxes after being remodeled as a time bomb to detonate the infinity stones.

"You better be successful or else we all will die, along with your beloved daughter." Clark warned him.

"I don't need someone to tell me what I am doing. You all should have let me rule you. Maybe this would never have happened." Trigon said as he flew off. He used his 4 eyes heat vision to insert himself into the attack of all the people.

But there was a difference this time. Trigon was getting closer to Black Winter's core as opposed to others who were attacking from far or fighting the monsters.

Black Winter was surprised to see the coming of a lone man which looked more of a monster than his small minions. Even though the monster had malevolence he was on the other side so he didn't drop any punches while attacking him.

"Hahaha.. Come.. Come let me see how big the devourer of multiverses are. Come.." Trigon said as he was laughing and fending off for himself. He was surrounded by pitch black darkness all around.

It was very chilling to see a lone man who looked like a monster being surrounded all around and still laughing. Soon all the other people weren't able to see him from afar. But they could hear his voice. The last words they heard was

"Live my daughter. This universe is yours to rule."

Raven who was watching all this had tears in her eyes. She never really loved her father, Her father was responsible for all the bad things in her life. The death of her home, her mother, everybody. But in the end he was still her father.

She watched as the voice of her father faded and he got engulfed by darkness. All the Avengers and others watched with sadness and hope. A hope that this small move of theirs would pay off.

"Another ant gone. Now just get eaten by...Huh...."

And then it came. The moment they all had been hoping for. It started as a small speck of light coming out from inside the body of Black Winter. And in a moment's notice that small speck of light enlarged into a huge ball of light.

John who was seeing this used his last bits of energy to take away all of the people and teleport away. This explosion was not something they would be able to defend. John took them at least a few thousand light years away.

A self blast of the infinity stones was not something to be trifled with. And when they got teleported such a huge distance they still were able to see such a huge explosion from far.

An explosion that was bigger than the size of a few galaxies.
