THE END

"Hello, my favorite nephew!!" Alfie shouted out.

As Tony Stark held him princess style, he would have kept his guard up but Steve Rogers informed everyone on comms that Alfie McBride is back on their side.

Along with his daughter/princess.

"Nephew? You should think about maturing up before you call yourself someone's uncle, let alone being a father. Where is your daughter anyway?"

"Ahh, the little one, she strayed. Can't say I haven't been warned, her mother said she's quite the wanderer." Alfie chuckled.

"Makes sense, I've also heard about you wandering of—"

*WHOroosh*

"Here they come!!"

"Throw me!"

"Gladly."

With Alfie in tow, Tony sped up towards the chituaris before he threw the old man towards them.

"Taste the rainbow!!" Alfie swung his sword at the lead aircraft before landing and jumping towards another one and doing the same.

"Good, I don't need to catch you up on skittles." Tony flew on the side blasting the other chitauris.

*Whroosh*

*Whroosh*

Kunais flew in the air, hitting the intended targets as the rest of the chitauris fell with their heads stabbed in.

"Neat. I do wonder, how did someone like you end up with weapons like this?" Tony asked.

History knew Alfie to carry a sword, but not many liked to mention that the sword he carries is a design specifically originating from Japan.

Now Tony witnessed the flying projectiles he also uses from the same country.

It makes him wonder what the story was behind it, despite many believing that Alfie McBride is also a super soldier, there was never any proof that he went through the same experiment that Steve Rogers did.

"I like asians." Alfie stated.

"Huh…makes perfect sense." Tony said sarcastically.

"Alright, let's head that way." Alfie jumped before hanging on Tony's suit.

"Has anyone ever mentioned how heavy you are?"

"Only in bed."

Tony blasted his thrusters, gaining as much speed as he could while Alfie sat atop him comfortably.

Though unknown to both of them —or just one of them— two figures stood on top of a skyscraper looking towards them.

•••••••••••

Somewhere…

"Ughh."

Alexander Pierce as well as Alexandra Reed woke up groggily.

Both powerful figures in the dark, Alexander Pierce is head of a HYDRA division hidden in SHIELD as well as a member of the World Security Council while Alexandra Reed led THE HAND.

It wasn't long ago that they were unconscious and taken to someone named Loki, who proclaimed himself god and forced them under him, or Alfie McBride in their case.

As much as they feared the power and authority Loki held, all of it was undone sooner by Alfie McBride.

But despite the black wolf knowing Alexandra Reed due to their past and recently Alexander Pierce as a HYDRA member, he still didn't confront them, rather he smirked and let them off.

That was the end of it, but now they were in the same situation again, but this time by a different man, one they know quite well.

"Ravens…" Alexander muttered.

Alexandra gave her attention to the situation as well.

They weren't sure where they were, but they were in a luxurious penthouse apartment. Randall Ravens stood with his back facing them as he looked out the windows taking sips from the liquor in hand.

Randall Ravens is known to be quite a strange man, ever since his retirement decades ago he had spent his time on hobbies and making himself look good.

A large amount of money and resources go towards charity and the people of America and those in need from other countries from his own pockets which he showed proof of.

The public love him, and have more than once wondered and asked if he can become a US president.

His image and reputation is stable, unshakeable to anyone who has tried or observed.

But people like Alexander and Alexandra knew the kind of man he is, someone to be feared.

Alexandra for instance has once tried to make a shady business deal with him, she showed up from the shadows and tried to instill fear and confusion to the man who seemed like an intelligent businessman at first.

But Randall Ravens have turned the tables on her, laughed off her attempt and disappeared.

After some time she sent her best assassins to him, but instead of hearing news of his demise she found herself visited by the man himself, bloodied with all the heads of the assassins she sent.

Alexander has done the same, but Randall outright listed all of his bullshitt and him being part of HYDRA and such, and at some point he put Randall Ravens on top of every hit list once but they never ended up with any blood from Randall other than their own.

Alexander Pierce tried everything, even some of his best hitters couldn't do anything to Randall.

Randall G. Ravens is a man untouchable in any spectrum, whether it's financial, politics, crime or defamation, Randall never took the hard fall many expect.

"What is this? I gave you my word, I have no business with you nor have I interfered with you." Alexander spoke with a grunt.

"And you have kept your word, Pierce. But I can't say the same for my boss." Randall turned towards them as if looking disapprovingly at two children.

"Your boss?!" Pierce wondered out loud, thinking how this scary bastard could have a boss.

"Alfie." Alexandra muttered in realization.

"Correct, Madame Reed. I had my own plans, opportunities during this situation, where I'm sure you two have thought the same, but my bastard boss wanted me to give some attention to you two while he plays hero out there." Randall snorted in displeasure.

"Do tell, what he plans to do with us." Alexandra wondered aloud, Alexander Pierce turned towards Randall with the same thoughts.

"No idea."  Randall simply stated with a shrug. "But he did give me a message to relay to the both of you."

Alexandra and Alexander frowned.

"You are to pull back your troops and disregard all plans or else HYDRA and the HAND will fall before the week comes to an end."

•••••••••••

(Alright, we're gonna quick pace here)

Alfie took some time to wander around the Stark tower assisting and annoying the soon-to-be-Avengers before portaling towards the roof.

He met Natasha Romanoff, the Black Widow who was still on guard towards him, which he totally understood, though he apologized for their past encounters before tossing the scepter towards her to which she used it to close the portal.

Tony Stark didn't have to guide a missile into the wide portal thanks to Alfie's connections to the World Security Council.

But due to the Chitauri main ship not blowing up, the few that made it out of the portal still roamed New York alive.

But they made quick work of it all by the end of the day.

But as they swept the city for any remnant chitauris, Alfie swiped the scepter and Tesseract before portaling away with the excuse that he will keep it safe until everything is over, completely ignoring Natasha's disputes.

As she panicked before calling it in, Alfie appeared elsewhere before he looked down towards the scepter and Tesseract.

Usually someone like him has no means to personally use these weapons, unless advanced magic or technology is used.

But it didn't stop him from his attempts.

When he woke up from the ice, he had [2 Strikes] on his life, meaning he had a remainder of two deaths left.

But after he killed Green and Shadow, the voice spoke to him once more…

[6 Strikes]

Both of them had 2 Strikes left, he didn't know what they did to lose one life each but it didn't matter.

His smile widened, while he was messing with Green and Shadow's lives he did some experiments to which the results made him elated.

He took the gloves off of his hands before he turned to one of the infinity stones, the Tesseract.

"Alright, here we go." He reached out with his bare hands and grabbed the cube.

He grunted as the senses throughout his body jolted in a spike of agony, before it numbed.

His mind told him to take his hand off the cube, but he persisted as his hand, that made contact spread with heat before feeling cold and then numb.

Whether this works or not was solely on his thoughts about the number of lives he had, he believed it was something beyond even the infinity stones, or at least he hoped it was.

He'll find out soon enough.

"KuuuaAAAGGHHHHHH!!!!!!"

*ssssssssssshhhhhhhhhhhh*

Starting from his hand, a blinding light passed through his entire body as the tesseract shined with thick dangerous energy before blasting into the skies.

And his hands began to wither into light, as if shedding, but his skin, blood, bones and everything on his body burned and shed into wisps of energy before disappearing.

His scream turned into silence.

The mirror dimension he set up shattered as the energy from the tesseract blasted out into the galaxy for all to see.

*Thunk*

The Tesseract fell onto the floor without the one who held it last.

....

*sssssssSSSSSS*

A light came into view,before brightening, many more appeared before it brightened the area.

As more continued to appear and shine, it came together into a blinding form of light, and the form turned more distinct, forming into a humanoid light.

And before long, a heavy breath was heard.

Standing in the same spot, the naked Alfie breathed raggedly as he looked and sensed the changes in his body.

Grateful that his plans turned out alright, he clenched his fists as he heard and felt the power from it.

He was interrupted by a familiar voice in his head.

[5 Strikes]

"HAHAHAHAHAHA!!"

He crazedly laughed, exhilarated of the results, not only the new strength he was revived with but he felt something else, a connection.

He turned towards the Tesseract on the floor with a wide smile, he felt that this connection from this cube allowed him to connect and absorb as much energy as he wanted no matter where it was.

*Shoomp*

He disappeared from his spot, nothing flashy, he simply disappeared as if he wasn't even there.

*Shoomp*

And appeared again with a slice of pizza from Manhattan itself before filly stuffing and munching.

He turned towards the scepter. "This is gonna be great." He grinned.

                        THE END

Or in other words, DROPPED…wait for Version 2, A.K.A. The Remake of Alpha if there's still anyone reading😁😁

Oh and the whole [Strikes] and other reincarnators was a plan I thought out for things like the Infinity Stones, considering any weak mortals would die once in contact with them.

But what would happen if someone died and was revived as if born from that very infinity stone? Would they have the characteristic and connection of that infinity stone?

Anyways, that was the plan for the reincarnators, to basically have a give and take relationship with the number of [Strikes] they have when they got to it.

Thank you for keeping up and dealing with all the BS, but I'll try to make the next one more sane and less cringy and stupid.

See yah soon!!
