"What are these? Aliens?" Tony asked as he had never seen any Skrull before. Only Wayne had an idea of them. He had seen the reports submitted by Fury once and knew that they were present in their universe.

Unsurprisingly, none of the Avengers feared the guns of Skrulls. One of the Skrull got irritated by the nonchalance of the Avengers and shot at Tony. And what happened next was not something many had expected. The laser bullet bounced off an invisible barrier near Tony and the bullet went back to the shooter injuring him in his shoulder. The Skrull cried out in pain after he got hit.

Tony who saw this smiled in an evil way at the Skrulls as he finally put on his suit. 616-Tony knew that this happened because Anti-Metal in one state has the power to push away any kind of kinetic energy.

"This is interesting. Seems like we are on a crossfire. What should we do, Captain?" Tony said while looking at Wayne, Steve and John. Tony used more of a mocking tone than being serious.

"Kl'rt please lower your gun if you want to live. I think you are intelligent enough not to make any stupid decision here." meanwhile John said that to Kl'rt.

"Haah. I have got you. You might have fooled the whole planet into thinking that you are God but you are nothing but a fraud. I don't know how you pulled the darkness of the Sun off but you can't fool me." Kl'rt said. He and the Skrulls had been thinking that whatever power John showed in the live broadcast was just to scare people.

Listening to this all the 616-Avengers and John's Avengers had palms on their forehead. They had seen foolish people but never as foolish as them. The Skrulls just saw one of their bullets get deflected and almost kill the shooter but they were in denial.

John had enough of their bulls**t and proceeded to destroy all the guns of Skrull with just a wave of his hand. And then using telekinesis he lifted them high in the air and made their mouths shut as he didn't want to hear cries, shouts or threats.

"What the f**k is going on?" Logan finally asked. Though there were no Skrull agents from the mutants, the pure fact that they were ambushed during this gathering didn't go down well with the mutants. Even Professor X had his eyebrows creased looking at the sudden change of events.

"Nothing of vast importance. The Skrull wants to take over Earth and they have secretly invaded many institutions and now the Avengers. They can replicate the powers of the Avengers but not the mutants."

"Take over Earth? The gall of these people.." 616-Tony clenched his fist in anger. The Illuminati had once gone to talk to them once during the Kree-Skrull war and specifically asked Earth to be put out from the fires of the war but it seemed like their warning had no importance to them.

"What are you going to do about them?" Professor X used his wheelchair to approach John and ask. He had heard how powerful John was from Scott and Emma but seeing him he couldn't find the depths of John.

And more so he was the host of the Phoenix Force. He thought that John wouldn't be stable like Jean after becoming the host but from all angles he couldn't find any unstable behavior from John. Even though he killed Dr. Doom, he did it with no signs of pain or anger.

"Me? I will do nothing. It's your headache. Not mine. As I said before, I am not here to babysit you all. Your powers are back. Now use them and cleanse your backyard. I just came here to give your powers back and to give a warning to all of the people present." John.

"And honestly, we needed a vacation." Tony added in the whole statement. The levitating closed mouth Skrulls were finally brought to ground and 616-Tony went to bring specific handcuffs to bind them. Since they were Super Skrulls, they needed special care. It was fortunate that 616-Tony was a paranoid one, and he had specific countermeasures for all the superheroes of Earth.

"At least help us find the original heroes." 616-Steve asked for help.

"No Captain, I have interfered too much into your lives. A little more might get attention from my colleagues which I honestly don't want. One of them is an assh**e. So you can come together and search for your own. And I don't think many of you like me. I have been responsible for making your lives hell" John said.

"These are my gifts to you. You can ask Kl'rt. He is a very decorated soldier and even a prince. So you can get more information out of him." John said as he pointed to Kl'rt.

"Since our work is done here, it's time for us to go back to where we came from."

"But I don't understand, you didn't kill any of the villains that rampaged all over Earth but specifically targeted Dr. Doom. Why is that?" Scott asked all were still curious about. Only the mutants had a good relation with John so he took the courage and ask him.
