Rest

"Take it Captain. It's for you. You will understand after taking it." John said.

"What? Do I need to eat it?" Steve said.

"No.. You need to touch it." Diana, who was close with him said. She could feel there was a power that was residing in the ball. Steve took his hand and finally touched it.

Then there was a blinding flash of light and everybody around closed their eyes to avoid the bright light. And when the light faded away, Captain America looked totally different.

His old costume was gone and was replaced with a more sleek looking costume. His iconic star was gone and was replaced with a white colored circles in his chest while the rest of the upper costume was blue. The costume in his legs has turned to pure white in color.

Captain America looked totally different and kind of holy now.

"How do you feel?" Diana asked him as he saw him change totally.

"Powerful. More powerful than I have ever felt before." Steve replied. Then he looked at Eternity and bent his knees to greet him. Tuning with Uni-Power made him realize what kind of power and responsibility he had on his shoulders now. But Captain being Captain, he was happy to take this responsibility.

"I vow in the name of all lives that I will protect them at all cost for now and till my death. Thank you for making me the Guardian." Steve said. Eternity nodded his head and so did the other abstract beings. Without saying any more words all of them vanished together.

Captain America has become Captain Universe now. And his area of protection had just changed from a country to almost the universe.

John on the other hand looked at his home and waved his hands to repair all the damage his house had dealt with.

"John, who were they?" Arthur asked. Everybody was curious. Only Strange and Thor knew of them. Though they knew that they were Gods they didn't have any idea of what kind of beings they were. Thor then explained what kind of beings they were and the forces they represented.

They were in awe and many even felt a little bit of envy for Steve as he had become such a huge power now. John on the other hand was silent. He would have to return to Earth 616 soon to undo the damage that he had done.

But that would not be immediately. He would take his time in this and leave for that world. Maybe he would take some of his friends for sight seeing.

"John, did you really de-power every single Avenger from that Earth 616?" Pietro asked. As he was really excited about the whole situation. They had all suffered once and now their counterparts suffered the same fate.

Only this time it was more painful for them.

"I did. I was disappointed with them and felt they had lost their way." John then proceeded to narrate the whole story of why he did so and his disappointment.

"So this is what happened. Now wonder you took that step. They deserved what they got." Clint said. When he heard how he died two times he was shaken.

"But the civilians are suffering." Clark said while creasing his brows.

"I will restore it back soon. Now I want a little rest. Today was too much even for me." John said. He was a little scared to be honest. Even though he had shown that he didn't fear the cosmic beings, he in his heart knew that if the abstract beings decided to attack him, it would be too hard for him to handle.

He was only a single God, while they represented all of the multiverse and were powered by it. He was sure that if all of them had decided to attack him, he would not have been able to escape in one piece for sure.

So he needed to show his tough side and show that he wasn't afraid of them. That was one of the main reasons why he decided to beat down In-Betweener. And of course he didn't like him because of his history and the stories that he read in comics.

John went to his home and nobody stopped him. There was too much to handle today and even though all remained unscathed, they were bombarded with total new information.

"Go home. There were a lot of things we came to know today. Control the public opinion. There would be a lot to explain to the people." Wayne said. What the satellites saw was alarming to say the least.

"Oh, another headache. I hate giving answers to the nosy journalists." Tony said.

"I thought you loved being in the limelight." Clark smirked and said

"Hey. Don't tune in with Wayne. he is rubbing off on you the wrong way." Tony said. By now Clark had perfectly integrated with the squad. Though they felt weird that he acted kind of a leader of the group but since his ideal matched with Steve they didn't bother to interrupt him.
