Chapter 286: Beyonders Begone!

Chapter 286: Beyonders Begone!

[You can read chapters in advance, OP and GOT fic on /misterimmortal.]

Tony Stark was a man who usually goofed around, but when the time came to actually worry about a situation, he stressed the most.

He would normally overthink the hell out of everything and find a solution to the problems. But this time, he found himself cornered because no matter what he threw at these strange enemies, they would always come out unhurt.

By now, they had lost a lot of people, from Hulk to even Natasha and Steve. He was the only one remaining, and honestly, he was scared now because even Hector had not come to help.

And after seeing the live stream of the news, he could see how weak the old man had grown, and most likely, if he came here to fight, then he'd die. So, he did what he could and devised a plan to destroy the enemies with their own tools.

Thankfully, with the arrival of Odin, they were all able to kill one Beyonder, and he quickly started working on the suit the creatures wore. It turned out to be more advanced than his wildest dreams. With technology not just a hundred or a thousand years more advanced, but he reckoned they were billions of years far more advanced.

At last, he could only find one way to end this menace, which was by somehow killing all of them using the suit's internal systems. And for that, someone had to wear that suit too. He was a man of pride, so he was never going to ask someone else to do it.

"Pepper, you must understand, this is the only way. Even if it's the Odin who wears it, they will die. And honestly, he's a man much more important than a little Tony Stark from Earth." Tony Stark tried his best to talk his wife-to-be into it.

Well, now it seemed she was never going to be his wife. But, he had no regrets as he believed in the fact that this was the right thing to do. To save the world, sacrifices were needed. In the old times, Captain America made them, even Hector made them... so who was he?

"But, why you? Can't..." Pepper tried to argue with him, but deep down, even she knew that this was the only way to go.

Tony kissed her and hugged her for one last time as he was already donning the suit of the Beyonders over his normal armour. He was already looking strained and even injuries due to the wounds.

The battle had been going on for days with momentary pauses in between.

"Stark! You need not worry about what comes after. You are a hero, and you shall have Valhalla." Thor tried to comfort the man he saw as a friend, not as close, but still.

Tony nodded and spoke into the comms. "All teams and soldiers, head back to the bases. I will take care of things from here."

Then, for the last time, he again hugged Pepper and flew away to his eventual self-doom. So many strong heroes had died, including Fantastic Four, Doom, and X-Men members. Just Jean was remaining, but even she was having trouble since the Beyonders were just too strong with their extra-dimensional powers. She could likely, eventually, beat them, but by then, nothing would be left. They could easily ignore the laws of this universe and work around them.

'I guess this is how Tony Stark, the famous narcissistic billionaire, dies.' He chuckled in self-deprecating laughter as he flew towards the portal the enemies had created.

"I wonder if the old man knows about all this and chose to ignore it." He wondered.

But he didn't care anymore. He felt Hector deserved some peaceful time to live, as he knew the man was forced to once again become the president.

He pulled down the helmet over his head and ensured he was correctly disguised so he could at least cross over to the side of the Beyonders. He did not know what kind of world it was, but since death was inevitable, did it even matter?

Soon, he successfully reached the last stretch and felt only one regret. One thing that he wished he could have had before dying. "I really want to eat one cheeseburger."

"Here you go, kid."

"Woops!" Hector jumped away and let the portal slowly close down while a few screams of agony erupted from inside.

"If you could end this war so fast, then why did you not?" Tony asked him.

Hector shrugged. "If this had not happened, would you have learned how to become selfless? Son, you were about to die for the sake of people you don't even know. That takes a lot of guts and introspectionand if me delaying this end a little brought a good change in you and the rest, then it was worth it.

"Let's bring everyone back now. They are on the Beyonder Prison planet in this universe." Hector snapped his finger with the real stones this time.

Boom!

Like blinking lights, one after another, the heroes started appearing. They were not harmed at all.

"Now go and fight the normal war. The war with Russia has still not ended. While I will go and prepare for the things." Hector was once again ready to jump ship.

Tony caught him, however, "You are not going anywhere! Tell us what's happening and what you're planning. We're honestly tired here and don't even know what we need to focus on. What's the end game?"

Hector pointed his finger at the sky. "The main goal is to head to the sky as one Earth... not the United States or Russia. Don't worry. Natasha will receive the plan to end the war. Just follow that, and we will win the war by defaultunconditionally."

"Where are you going now? Another meeting? Come on, old man, join us at the party tonight. It will be on me! In the name of survival of the heroes of Earth." Tony invited.

Hector sighed. "I need to meet two princes and give them some brains."

In an instant, he disappeared, leaving everyone shocked. Tony, with his arms sideways, looked left and right in confusion. "Seriously? He ends the war so easily?"

Natasha chuckled. "He is like that sometimes."

Steve, who had seen Hector do similar things back in the world war, added. "He's known to be the Changer of Tides. Just his presence was enough to make the Nazis run in fear back in the days."

Tony's arms fell in tiredness. "You know what, I'm gonna go and eat a cheeseburger... and then make some babies."

Steve nodded with a big smile on his face. "It is fun sometimes."

Natasha scoffed and walked away. "John is so much better than you two."
