The Dwarf King

Tony went and picked up Wanda, who was surprisingly chill about his absence and was quite happy to not only find her family's legacy, but also meet her mother's spirit. Then he picked up Peter who even more surprisingly had some facial hairs and had an air of maturity around him as he was now living alone in a well furnished house given to him by Stark, after which they went to the Sanctum sanctorum where they found Stephen strange, who was quite welcoming as he knew about the people in front of him as the guardians of earth.

Stephen was shocked to know about Thanos's plan to retrieve the Infinity Stones from the universe for a maniacal genocide and agreed to go to Wakanda to help them.

"This way, please" Said Bruce to Stephen as he started to lead the way towards Tony's Jet."

"I'm sorry but we don't need that Jet to go there." replied Stephen with a smile.

"What do you mean?" asked Peter with an interest to which Strange just raised his hands in the opposite direction and rotated them to create a portal which lead them straight into Wakanda.

Everyone was surprised by Sorcerer's powers but quickly composed themselves as T'Challa quickly came to greet them with Shuri, who too, was quite chill about Tony's absence.

"Listen guys, raise the barrier. They can come at anytime. The Black Order believes that the Mind Stone and the Time Stone both are on earth, here in Wakanda and they will stop at nothing to get them.

Now I don't know why they think that the Time stone is here, but I do have the Mind stone."

Tony then placed his hand inside his inner suit pocket and took out a yellow shining gem, enclosed in a vibranium mesh and then in a transparent containment.

"I have enclosed it in a containment which is almost impossible to break by normal means and also stops anyone to detect the gem. I think Wakanda is the safest place on earth for this."

Tony was bullshitting left and right and they all were listening to him as if their lives depended on it. Stephen narrowed his eyes when he got to know about the Time stone being in Wakanda, and started to look suspiciously all around him.

"Ok guys, I need to go and try to get more help from the X-Men. Be sure to protect it." Said Tony before placing the enclosed yellow gem in the palms of Bruce and flying out of Wakanda in his Endo-Sym armor.

Tony however didn't go far and just went behind the Wakandan jungle where some of his nanotech equipment were already present. He went up to a table which was presenting some data about somethings when Tony willed it and all the three stones flew out of him and started to revolve around his palms.

"So the tests are successful!"

[Sir, It is still dangerous. Advice to first scan a blueprint of the Infinity Gauntlet]

"Yes...It is risky...Actually…"

Everything around Tony suddenly disappeared while Tony's eyes turned rainbow and he too disappeared in a rainbow light.

.

.

Skuruge and Some of the Berserkers were having some kind of argument while Hela was preparing to extend the Bifrost to other realms as well when suddenly a rainbow light shone brightly inside the Bifrost Observatory and Tony came out of it.

Hela was in some kind of library when suddenly she detected Tony and disappeared with a smile. She quickly came in the Observatory to find no one and was deeply confused as to where Tony disappeared to.

Meanwhile a Teleportation Circle, which was a Mystic art opened inside of Odin's vault and Tony stepped out of it as the portal behind him closed. He then started walking inside of Odin's vault which was now very sophisticated with all the different types of machines which were scanning and studying the treasures all around the vault.

Tony went up to the Casket of Ancient Winters and looked at the research done by Jarvis on it wen suddenly Hela appeared behind him and placed her Necrosword on his neck.

Help support creative writers by finding and reading their stories on the original site.

"Should I just destroy all these treasures? It seems to me like you value them so much more than….." said Hela with smirk and a raised an eyebrow

"I upgraded that sword, and you are gonna threaten me with that?" replied Tony as he turned around and flicked her sword away, which was handled by Hela with a weak grip and fell in the corner of the Vault.

Tony then suddenly picked Hela up and started to kiss her passionately to which Hela became extremely happy and wrapped her legs around Tony and kissed him back.

They both then separated a little after making out passionately and started laughing. Tony took her to their kitchen and made her some of her favorite food and they started chatting while eating the food.

As the food finished, Tony said with a deep thought

"Hela, I need to go to Nidavellir. I need more Uru and possibly the weapon designs and techniques of crafting."

Hela was a bit hesitant with Tony's demand as Nidavellir was destroyed by Thanos, but then she just sighed and nodded as she just couldn't seem to say no to her precious one.

.

.

Tony arrived on a destroyed Nidavellir and the first thing he saw was a prototype of the Infinity gauntlet.

He also sensed Eitri the Dwarf King sitting in despair with his hands enclosed in a casing by Thanos so he couldn't make any more weapons.

"So is this Nidavellir?" Said Tony out aloud so he could attract the Dwarf King's attention.

Eitri suddenly got up and ran towards Tony but was instantly stopped in his tracks. He felt that someone was pressing him on the ground and he couldn't do anything about it.

"Easy there Eitri"

"You! Who are you? And What do you want?"

"Oh, I just want to relieve you of your pain."

Suddenly a green light shone on Tony as many kinds of runes hovered over his body. Eitri was shocked and afraid as to whatever was happening when suddenly an extreme amount of energy exited Tony's body and all the broken things around him started to revert to their original state.

Eitri's hands too started to get out of the cast which disappeared in thin air.

"See, I told you that I was here to help" said Tony with a trusting smile.

Eitri was suddenly in tears to see his hands again and all his equipment working.

"Man, Only If I had the gauntlet, I would've been able to stop Thanos and revert everything back to how it was before his Carnage." continued Tony in a sad tone as his eyes started to get wet.

"Was that the power of a Stone?" Asked Eitri with astonishment as he heard Tony's voice to which the latter just nodded and showed him the Time Stone.

"I have it now but what's the point? Thanos will come and take this too, after which he will wipe out half the universe. I have nothing to stop him so I came here to get your help."

Tony then started lying his way into The Dwarf King's heart. He also told him that Thanos had killed Thor and Loki when he came there to get the Space Stone and now Asgard is ruled by their elder sister Hela who was the first wielder of Mjolnir which was personally made by him.

He kept buttering up Eitri to help him and Eitri too, easily complied at the idea of Tony bringing all his friends to life by the gauntlet.

The Dwarf King then presented Tony with a huge amount of Uru with all the schematics and casts of different types of godly weapons which Tony happily saved in his AI. Tony also scanned the schematics of the Infinity Gauntlet to understand the workings of the mystical object and after he was done, He said

"Eitri, Why don't you come to Asgard? I will get all these equipments there. Help us build weapons to defeat Thanos."

Eitri was hesitant at Stark's suggestion but then Tony smiled a little and Eitri suddenly thought that it was reasonable and important and then agreed to Tony.

Gamora arrived at Knowhere with Peter, Drax and Mantis to find a planet razed to the ground. She saw Thanos speaking to the collector and taking the stone from him and suddenly turned to stop Peter.

"Peter, listen to me…."
