4 Thanos

Boom

the huge ship which Thanos stood within was destroyed. Justice man flew through the ship, destroying it and causing a huge explosion. but he stood stopped as he floated within the control soon of Thanos. there he saw Thanos, coolly sitting on a throne while looking at Justice Man, not putting him in his eyes.

Not even the likes of Odin's son, Thor was his match. much less this mortal, Justice man's eyes narrowed seeing the look within Thanos's eyes. Thanos was not bothered by killing so many lives, he only had one goal of getting the infinity stones and it was for nothing good.

to get a woman to love him, Thanos was going to slaughter 99.9% of all life in the universe. since his love was the embodiment of death, she would be loved with such a huge gift. and if that's not enough, there was another universe. such a being with such a mindset disgusted Justice Man,

Justice Man shot toward Thanos with a fist, but as he neared Thanos, Thanos showed his hand, revealing a gauntlet that was golden in his hands. the gauntlet had 3 gems; these 3 gems were known as the infinite stones.

The red stone was known as the power stone. The Power Stone gives its owner access to all power and energy that ever has or will exist and can back the other gems and boost their effects. Its most basic powers grant its user unlimited stamina and can increase the user's strength to unlimited levels depending on how much the gem is drawn upon. It allows the user to duplicate practically any physical superhuman ability and become invincible.

The green stone was known as the soul stone. The Soul Gem is sentient; it has the desire to collect souls. Somebody in possession of the Soul Gem can use it to attack another's soul in various ways, The gem can reveal information by peering into another's soul. The gem can trap souls inside itself in an idyllic world named Soul World, also allowing its user to access the memories and skills of those imprisoned there. The gem's power can circulate life and death forces on a planetary scale, revert beings to their natural state and give its user control over any and all life be it sentient or not.

The Bluestone was known as the space stone. The Space Stone allows its user to manipulate space in any way they see fit. Its most basic powers allow one to teleport themselves and others to any place, they can picture in their mind, regardless of distance or preventive measures, such as walls or spells. It can increase the speed of the user and allow them to manipulate gravity and create black holes. Its more powerful abilities allow one to appear in multiple places at once or alter the distance between objects contrary to the laws of physics. At its peak, when used in conjunction with the other gems, it allows its user to be at all places in the universe at once simultaneously.

Justice Man's fist shot toward Thanos's face, but to Justice Man's shock, his fist phased through Thanos's head. Thanos got up, grabbed Justice Man's cap, and swung around before slamming him heavily onto the ground.

Thanos threw Justice man up slightly, his fist glowed with the power of the power stone, before he punched Justice Man heavily, sending Thanos shooting through the glass window, and sending Justice man rocketing towards Earth.

all the heroes froze seeing Justice Man rocketing past them. they froze and looked at Thanos who was flying through the hole Justice Man had created. using the Space stone, to not make the fact that there was a hole within the chest a problem for him.

"They should have weakened your planet and your people down to a good level," Thanos said calmly, he never thought for a moment that his army would be enough to take down earth, but he still had to hurry, before this new sage who would replace the old sage.

the Sage who protected this dimension was powerful, powerful enough that even the gods would have to take it seriously, much less Thanos.

Thanos flashed, appearing on earth where Justice Man had landed heavily upon. stepping upon Justice Man, Thanos closed his eyes for some time, seeking the infinity stones, at the same time, ships began to move in on Thanos's locations.

all heroes and villains were all given the order to move in. although not forced, this was a matter of life and death. they either moved to defend the earth or stand and watch as everyone dies.

meanwhile, Sora stood on a roof, listening to the Iron Bat who was asking for all heroes and villains to land support. Iron bat didn't even bother to hide anything and told the world heroes and villains as it was, pretty much giving all of them no choice but to head out as ships appeared in the sky to pick up the heroes and villains.

below the roof, a few street-level heroes were listening to this, while looking at the ship which was floating in the west, south, east, and north part of the city. over 100 ships were moved out, all moved all over the world, collecting heroes.

"Should I join? I should, but I don't have a good way to hide my face..." Sora said softly as he looked down below, looking at a young man who was wearing a hero costume. looking closely, they were about the same height, nodding slightly, Sora flicked his hand out, hitting him with a web, and pulling the young man towards him.

the young man wanted to speak, but his neck was cracked once Sora hide in the darkness. after a few seconds, Sora walked out of the darkness with the hero outfit on. Sora jumped, shooting a web that stuck onto the ship, hiding in the spot while watching people quickly getting on.

after 30 seconds with no one else getting on, the ship shot into the sky, stopping by 3 cities, before it moved on, heading towards Thanos's location. when they arrived, they all saw a man with a goatee joined with Justice Man fighting against Thanos all by himself.

he had a necklace around his neck, which held the time stone. with this stone, plus the magic he managed to master in the past few days, joined with Justice Man, they were able to give Thanos a good fight.

Thanos on the other hand was enraged, from his knowledge, the Sage didn't have a protector. the Sage didn't have someone to replace him just yet. but it was clear that the former Sage had planned everything out, hiding his replacer from everyone, even someone like him was left in the dark.

one should know he had information on everyone, the two aliens on earth who were from another alien. the fact that the former Sage didn't use the time stone, meaning that the Sage wouldn't look into the future as such action would cause great trouble,

knew of the smartest people, such as Iron Bat. he knew who he truly was, how he risks using time, and forbids such things. He knew the Sage pretty while, they fought thousands of years ago, countless times. back then the Sage was still getting new to the position of a Sage, but he was growing, learning, and adapting.

Thanos was sure he was good at reading people; Thanos had the most loyal spies everywhere, be it near Iron Bat, the Sage, Odin, or Zeus, no one could escape his eyes, yet he was played... even so, he was not too bothered too much, this was only one set back.

with a punch, Thanos's fist shot toward the new Sage, but the barrier appeared to stop the fist. Thanos's fist cracked through the barrier, but before he could hit the Sage, Justice Man's fist landed on Thanos's face, creating a shock wave that destroyed nearby mountains,

Justice Man was no longer holding back, the impact from this blow was enough to send the Sage sliding backward, the ships heading near them flying backward, and Thanos shooting far away toward the sky.

as Thanos began to fall, The Sage waved his hands, creating portals that wrapped around Thanos's limbs. at the same time, Justice Man flashed, aiming to remove the gauntlet, Thanos's body flashed at the last moment, teleporting behind the Sage.

The Sage's eyes narrowed upon seeing this, the gem within the lace glowed. The Sage's time instantly sped up, allowing him to dodge the blow-by-hair breath. The Sage quickly made some space, while waving his hands.

more and more robes appeared, wrapping around Thanos, at the same time, flames shot from the sky as Justice Girl slammed on top of Thanos's head with a heavy fist. but to Justice Girl Shock, Thanos had appeared where Justice man was in.

looking through the dust, Justice Girl saw Justice Man slowly getting up, getting her teeth, she quickly passed down this knowledge to everyone. The Sage waved his hands and cast a spell. everyone Superhero who could be of some use for this fight instantly had their mind linked

'I will cast a spell which would block the space stone's ability to teleport, this that time before he forces through the spell, get your hands on the gauntlet by all means. he can't use more than one stone at once, just look at the glow to guess what stone he is about to use.' Sage's voice sounded within everyone's head as he shot backward

Thanos saw this was about to shoot toward him, but a ghost-like being appeared behind Thanos from the ground. He stabbed his hand toward Thanos, but Thanos dodged, grabbing the hand which had turned solid and shooting red beams from his eyes.

Boom

But the beam attack didn't last long as Amazonian Woman launched her spear toward Thanos, while the ground under Thanos moved to hold him in place. the Green Man in Thanos's hands turned into a ghost-like being, just in time as an Amazonian woman's spear passed through him, stabbing through Thanos's stomach.

a heartbeat later, Thanos's arm glowed with the power of the space stone. Thanos gritted his teeth as he looked towards the Sage. he was slowing him down with the power of time stone, how could someone like him be so slow to react to such an attack?

he would try and teleport the Sage, but the Sage was using the time stone to cancel out the space stone. Thanos pulled out the spear and began to fight, more and more heroes appeared, and seemly began to overwhelm Thanos.

Iron Bat's high-tech gadgets seemly covering every field, although not enough to injure him seriously, they were more than enough to slow him down. Justice man and Justice Girl combined attacks, Amazonian woman's powerful attack, plus mastery in seemly all forms of martial arts, the Racer's high-speed attacks, and so many other people, they were more than enough to overwhelm anyone

but soon, Thanos had enough and used the Soul stone. everyone's soul instantly shook, leaving their bodies defenseless. grabbing the closest hero, Thanos glowed with the power stone and shot a beam from his eye, killing the weaker heroes. but to his annoyance, the Sage turned back time bringing them back to life.

but the Sage fell to his knee, breathing heavily, he seemed to have aged many years within this battle. he was pushing himself past the limits, he alone was nowhere strong enough to fight Thanos, but with everyone else, they had a chance to take him down... but they couldn't go on without him. and he was reaching his limits.

not too far away, Sora sat while watching the battle, lazily eating an apple. Sora smiled slightly while watching this, he had to admit, people like Justice Man and Justice Woman were powerful. if their punches were forced toward the planet, then Earth would be destroyed.

but they were all skilled and had good control of their powers, aiming most of the power toward the sky, which is why Thanos was flying toward the sky with each blow. Sora calmly watched as everyone was defeated, with Thanos who had also pushed himself slowly walking towards Sage.

Sora seeing this slowly got up, from the moment Thanos came to now, 1 hour had passed. shockingly, it was enough time for Sora's mind to recover 80% of its mental energy. within this time, he had copied a few people. one of them being The Sage, and the last person being Iron Bat

the Sage was only a human who was learning magic, he was not that strong without the time stone. but he had a wide field of knowledge and magic, allowing him to be the most useful person on this battlefield,

"..." Thanos coldly looked at the Sage who was on his knees before him, barely having the strength to remain awake. just as he was about to speak, he froze as he saw that Thanos's thick arms were suddenly cut. looking behind Thanos, The Sage Saw a masked street-level hero holding a sword that was formed from magical energy.

"Well, big guy. I didn't expect you to be weakened to such a level." Sora said with a smile as he picked up the gauntlet and put it onto his hand. feeling the power throwing through his body, Sora smiled slightly as he grabbed the Sage Necklace before the Sage could do anything and went on to put the time stone onto the gauntlet.

Sora suddenly felt power flowing through his vines, all of his other power was stunned and enhanced to a great level. Sora looked at the gauntlet for a moment before shaking his head slightly,

"y-you..." Thanos said in shock, Sora came out of nowhere, someone was watching everything and waiting for a perfect moment. that magical energy... did the former Sage plan everything out, even having a backup, Sage?

"Sigh, too easy," Sora said softly, he looked at Thanos for a moment before shrugging, and throwing the gauntlet towards Thanos, Sora opened a portal using Thanos's abilities, and entered, leaving Thanos, and the Sage stunned and confused.

Thanos looked at the gauntlet, in his hand, before looking at the Sage who had a confused look. with this simple look, he realized that the newcomer most likely was not with them, but why didn't he take the gauntlet? did he look down upon them or something?

But the truth was something that only someone as weird as Sora could understand. it was not challenging... getting the gauntlet and having such power, made everything boring. the only ever had work Sora had to suffer through was working out back on earth, but he lost that feeling of having to work for something. it made everything he did and gained... boring.

Sure, he can role the world. but why? why would he want to rule this world? sure, he could gain everything, but is gaining everything having nothing? So, Sora was planning to have everything harder for himself. as for Thanos killing him? Naw, the good guys always win... and he looked into the future with the time stone to see Thanos's plan.

Sora appeared in his apartment, with a phone in hand, he began getting ready to start having some phone. the first thing he should do was get enough money to build or buy a nice mansion. but before that, he needed to hide the outfit he stole from the hero he killed.

"Well, things will be getting interesting in the next few days... but I should move to stop Thanos before the snap. I would be a fool if I risk my life like that." Sora said softly, as he sat on this bed, going through his phone, finding a new apartment he should move to.

"Well, this will do. 10k a month... I should also build my computer, I guess I can sell stuff on my black market for a high price... organs? Naw, too easy. illegal goods. too easy... how about I start a war and sell both sides' weapons... still too easy." Sora said softly before he went on to check his Watch tube channel, he had 10 new subscribers, with over 100 views for the spiderman video he had posted.

"Watchtube new work, deep thought, and even stuff... Haha, sure, I will become a reporter and Watchtuber. a level of hard work, plus I can take my time having fun with the heroes and villains." Sora said with a smile, this was going to be fun.
