Chapter 116: Henry Kills the MCU: part 4 (chapter 116)
Bucky lunged at Henry with his metal arm, aiming to incapacitate him, but Henry sidestepped with ease. He grabbed Bucky's arm and twisted it with inhuman strength, forcing Bucky to his knees. "You're both impressive," Henry remarked, a smirk playing on his lips. "But not nearly impressive enough." Bucky gritted his teeth, fighting against the pain as he tried to break free. "Hmm, fuck you, you will pay for this."
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
Henry released Bucky's arm with a shove, sending him sprawling across the floor. "I'm counting on it," he replied, turning his attention back to Steve, who had recovered and was charging at him once more. Steve's movements were swift and precise, his shield a blur as he struck at Henry with all the force he could muster. But Henry was faster, his reflexes honed to perfection. He caught the edge of the shield, using it to pivot and deliver a devastating kick that sent Steve flying backward.
As Steve struggled to rise, Bucky attacked again, unleashing a barrage of punches with his enhanced strength. Henry blocked each one with ease, countering with blows that landed with bone-crushing force. Bucky staggered, blood trickling from a cut above his eye. Henry pressed his advantage, summoning a flame that burned with an intensity hotter than the surface of the sun. He hurled it at Bucky, the fire consuming him in an instant.
Bucky screamed, the sound filled with agony as the flames seared his skin and flesh. He fell to the ground, the fire continuing to burn, leaving nothing but ashes in its wake. "No!" Steve cried, his voice filled with desperation as he watched his friend perish. Fueled by rage and grief, Steve charged at Henry once more, his shield raised and determination etched across his features. But Henry was unyielding, his power insurmountable. He caught Steve's shield mid-swing, wrenching it from his grasp with a display of sheer strength.
Henry stored the shield in his cube, advancing on Steve with predatory intent. "This is the end for you, Captain."Steve swung at him with his fists, each blow fueled by raw emotion. But Henry's strength was greater, his speed unmatched. He dodged Steve's attacks effortlessly, delivering a series of punishing blows that drove Steve to his knees. "You're outmatched," Henry taunted, his voice devoid of sympathy. "Your time has passed, you old man"
The wind howled through the shattered cabin windows, and the air was thick with tension as Steve Rogers, battered and bruised, knelt before Henry. But just as Henry was about to deliver the final blow, a sudden burst of energy filled the room, crackling with intensity.
Iron Man, Iron Patriot, Wanda Maximoff, and Vision arrived, their faces set with grim determination. They had discovered the remains of their fallen friends, clint, sam and natasha, and now stood united in their fury and grief. Their arrival was not a surprise to Henry; he had anticipated it. The sight of Sam, Natasha, and Bucky's brutal ends had pushed them beyond anger, into a state of righteous fury.
"Henry!" Tony Stark, clad in his Iron Man armor, shouted. "This ends now. You've crossed the line too many times."Henry simply smirked, unperturbed by their appearance. "I wondered when the rest of you would show up," he said, pulling a glowing, red-and-black gem from his pocket. The Fragment of the Reality Stone shimmered with an eerie light, casting ominous shadows around the room.
"Your little toys won't save you," Iron Patriot, aka James Rhodes, warned, his suit's weapon systems locking onto Henry. Henry raised an eyebrow, amused. "I don't need toys. I have something far more powerful." With a thought, he activated the gem, reality bending around him as if he were at the center of a storm.
Iron Man launched himself forward, repulsor beams blazing a path of destruction as they homed in on Henry. Henry waved his hand, the air around Tony warping as he redirected the energy blasts into the walls, scorching the cabin with searing heat. "Vision, get the gem!" Wanda commanded, her hands glowing red as she conjured a wave of chaos energy, intending to envelop Henry.
Vision nodded, phasing through the floor to catch Henry off guard. But Henry was ready, the Reality Stone fragment allowing him to see through Vision's tactics. He solidified the space around Vision, trapping him momentarily in a prison of warped reality. "Nice trick, dildo," Henry sneered. "But you're in my world now." Vision struggled, trying to phase out of the trap, but the stone's power held him firm. Henry flicked his wrist, and a tendril of energy shot out, striking Vision through the chest, causing him to convulse with a burst of electricity.
"Vision!" Wanda screamed, eyes ablaze with chaos magic as she unleashed a torrent of energy at Henry. The air sizzled as reality itself seemed to bend around her wrath. Henry chuckled, using the stone to turn the cabin into an illusionary maze, filled with twisted corridors and shadowy figures. The illusions danced before Wanda's eyes, warping into terrifying visages that attacked with sharp, phantom claws.
"Is that all you've got, Scarlet Witch?" Henry taunted, the gem's power allowing him to manipulate her perceptions, creating nightmarish visions that clouded her mind. Iron Patriot opened fire with his suit's heavy artillery, the barrage echoing like thunder in the confined space. Henry retaliated, transmuting the incoming missiles into harmless doves that fluttered away, their wings brushing against Rhodes's face.
"Cute trick," Rhodes muttered, launching himself at Henry in a full-force tackle. Henry sidestepped effortlessly, delivering a devastating punch that dented Rhodes's armor, sending him crashing into the floor with a metallic thud. "You're all just delaying the inevitable,your death" Henry said coldly. "Let me show you what true power looks like." With a flick of his hand, Henry focused on Vision, using the Reality Stone to ignite a firestorm within the android's core. Vision's eyes widened in pain as the internal flames ravaged his synthetic body, circuits frying under the intense heat.
Vision's cries of agony were cut short as Henry intensified the heat, and Vision's body disintegrated into ash, the echoes of his suffering lingering in the air as the mind stone fell, which he secured into the cube.
Wanda, witnessing Vision's end, let out a heart-wrenching scream, her powers flaring uncontrollably as her grief manifested in violent bursts of red energy. "Vision!" she cried, tears streaming down her face as she launched herself at Henry, chaos magic crackling like a wildfire around her. Henry intercepted her, a sadistic smile on his lips. "You'll be with him soon enough." With a cruel twist of his wrist, he manipulated reality to create chains of pure energy that wrapped around Wanda, constricting her like a serpent. The chains burned with a spectral fire, searing her skin and drawing cries of pain from her lips.
"Feel the powerlessness, Wanda," Henry mocked, watching her struggle. "This is how it ends for you."He intensified the chains' grip until Wanda's energy flared one last time before she went limp, the life drained from her body. Iron Man, enraged by the loss of his comrades, unleashed the full arsenal of his suit, missiles, lasers, and plasma beams converging on Henry in a symphony of destruction.
