"Oh my…" Hela sucked in a deep breath and stared at Stan with wide eyes.
"You know this guy?" Tony asked.
"Kind of hard not to if you're me," Harry muttered. "why are you here?" He asked Stan.
"I can't ever visit?" Stan asked in a mock hurt voice.
"You never do," Harry replied, rolling his eyes. "would you mind hurrying up? There's apparently an alien invasion about to happen."
"Impatient kids," Stan said under his breath before he spoke. "I'll make this quick, that asshole Thanos has a plan that will cause me a ton of headaches. He wants to eliminate half of the population of the universe."
"What?" Steve blurted out. "Why would he want to do that?"
"He wants to court this universe's death," Stan shook his head with exasperation. "honestly, he's aiming way above his level. Anyway, he plans to use the infinity stones to do so. He currently has two, partly thanks to this dumbass." Stan gestured at Loki who looked slightly offended at that comment. "two of them are here on Earth. One of them in that one's head," He gestured to Vision. "and the other will be with Strange."
"Dr Strange?" Harry asked.
"The exact same one," Stan nodded. "Thanos tried to get the third one, the soul stone, but I've claimed that one with permission from this universes death. Shame she made me give it to her, wouldn't even listen to my reasons about why I should have it."
"She let you do that?" Harry blinked in shock.
"She trusts me, we've got a history," Stan winked. "I've also taken away what Thano believes he needs to get it. To get the stone you'd have had to sacrifice something, he was going to sacrifice his adopted daughter." Stan waved his hand and suddenly a group of people appeared, firstly a brown-haired man, then a big grey man with purple tattoos all over his body. Following him was a woman with antennas on her head, behind her was a child-sized walking tree that was playing video games on a handheld console and a walking dressed up racoon before a blue-skinned woman that was partly made of metal and then the final member of this unique group walked out, a green-skinned and black-haired woman. "Allow me to introduce the 'Guardians of the galaxy'," Stan continued. "we have Peter Quill, Drax, Mantis, Groot, Rocket, Nebula and finally Gamora."
"Hi, nice to meet you all," Peter Quill smiled awkwardly at them before he took a moment to appreciate how good looking the women of Earth were. "a great pleasure."
"Focus," Gamora said in an irritated voice, slapping Quill on the back of his head. "we need to stop my father."
"No shit, sweetie," Harry rolled his eyes before turning to Stan. "so you need us to stop this guy."
"Yes, unfortunately, I am limited to what I can do here," Stan sighed. "moving around a few people, that's fine. Stopping an entire army and repeatedly changing a massive world-altering event, that's a no-no. So, do your best, and call me when you're done. I've got a poker game to get to. Love you." Stan called before disappearing.
"Who the hell was that guy?" Sam asked, looking quite confused, a look that everybody else was sharing.
"That… would be Death." Harry sighed. "Or at least the death of my old world, I didn't expect to see him here."
"That man was death?" Rocket asked disbelievingly.
"Holy crap, the racoon can talk." Tony stared at Rocket with disbelief.
"Don't call me a racoon!"
"Enough," Steve cut in. "now's not the time. We need to focus."
"I'll contact Strange and get some magical back-up," Harry said as he pulled out his phone. "if anybody else has any suggestions then I'm open for them."
"I can contact Wakanda," Gwen spoke up. "we're pretty friendly with the royalty there."
"Cool, let's go and kill some aliens, then I can go home and forget this madness."
