'.....' = Thoughts

"That Ebony guy isn't here yet. What's he waiting for?" James spoke to the team.
"Now would be a good time for him to disrupt us and cause more destruction to the planet. But there's no sign of him yet. What is he planning?" Steve, too, was confused by Ebony's behavior.
'Maybe the presence that appeared on the Helicarrier when we were fighting is responsible for this? Was it the Ancient One, or was it someone else?' James pondered while clearing the enemies.
'Hmm, let's check out my panel first,' James decided, no longer thinking about Ebony Maw. James willed it, and a blue panel appeared before him.

'3150 experience points in total. If I hadn't been fighting all day, I don't know how long it would have taken me to obtain this many experience points. Hopefully, I will be able to reach Level 4 by the end of this war,' James thought, crossing his fingers.
With his Sensory Ability activated at all times, James was easily able to fight and keep an eye on the information panel concurrently.
Soon, Tony returned with Loki's Sceptre and immediately attempted to close the portal.
'Wait a minute, am I forgetting something?' James thought. 'Oh, the nuke! Why is there no nuke? Did the government decide not to use it?' James pondered.
"Shutting down!" Tony said through the communicator and inserted the Sceptre into the blue shield. As the sceptre was inserted, the portal started to close. The remaining aliens, which were still causing havoc, suddenly fell to the ground, appearing lifeless.
It appeared that some kind of link was broken between them and whatever was outside the portal, leading to the vast space.
Silence spread as the portal completely closed. No one spoke, even through the communicator, until Steve said, "We won."
Everyone gathered near Stark Tower, filled with ecstasy and happiness. A burden seemed to have been lifted from their minds.
After closing the portal, despite the destruction they had caused, they had finally won the war against the Chitauri Army.
Tony surveyed the scene with a mix of relief and exhaustion. The battle had been long and brutal, but they had come out on top. His suit was battered and worn.
Next to him, Steve stood tall and proud. He had led the Avengers with unwavering determination and had never lost faith in their mission.
Natasha leaned against a nearby wall, her body bruised and battered. Her face bore a mix of exhaustion and satisfaction, knowing that they had achieved their goal. Clint stood beside her, with eyes that looked clearer than before.
James stood beside them with the sword still in his hand, looking like a mighty warrior who had fought a great battle. His clothes were tattered and torn out in a few places but there was not a scratch on his face. The regeneration power of the Immortal body played an important role in that.
Thor stood at the edge of the group, his hammer Mjolnir at his side. Lightning crackled in the sky, a final display of his power. Whereas the Hulk, stood apart from the others, his massive form still trembling with residual rage. He had unleashed his anger on the Chitauri, smashing through their ranks with unstoppable force. His transformation had been necessary for the battle, but now he struggled to regain control.
As the silence lingered, Tony finally broke the tension with a grin. "Well, I have to say, it's about time we got a win. This calls for a celebration, don't you think?"
"Only if you pay," chuckled James, while the rest smiled with him.
"What are we going to eat?" asked Steve.
"Shawarma sounds good," Thor, who had been silent the whole time, joined the conversation.
"Agreed. I haven't tried it before, and now I want to," said Tony, while holding a blue cube in his hand.
"Is that the Tesseract?" James asked curiously, breaking the flow of the conversation.
But before hearing Tony's reply, James suddenly went into a trance. He couldn't see anything except for the Tesseract in front of him. Everything else felt bleak. The Tesseract seemed to be drawing James in like a magnet to metal.
Still in a trance, James lightly touched the Tesseract. Instantly, his vision filled with a complete blue glow, enveloping him entirely.
Finally emerging from the trance, James saw himself standing in an infinite white space, just like when he had touched the sword back in Nidavellir.
"Oh man don't tell me that I am going to fall unconscious for months again," James groaned.
James looked around, trying to make sense of his surroundings. The infinite white space seemed different this time, almost like it was pulsating with energy. He reached out his hand, expecting to touch a solid surface, but his hand passed right through the space.
"This feels... different," James muttered to himself, noticing the strange sensation of energy flowing through him. He looked down at his body and saw that it was surrounded by a faint blue glow, matching the one he had seen before.
Curiosity got the better of him, and he started to explore the infinite white space. As he walked, the space shifted and changed, creating new landscapes and environments with each step. James found himself in a vibrant forest, surrounded by towering trees and exotic plants. He heard the sound of birds singing and leaves rustling in the breeze. But as soon as he moved on, the forest faded away, replaced by a vast desert with rolling sand dunes.
Time seemed to lose all meaning in this space. James was unsure how long he had been wandering, but it felt like he had been here for hours, days, maybe even weeks. And yet, he didn't feel tired or hungry. It was as if his physical needs had been suspended.
As James continued his journey, he couldn't shake the feeling that there was something he was supposed to find here, some purpose or meaning to his presence in this strange space. The blue glow surrounding him seemed to grow brighter with each step, pulsating with power and energy.
Finally, as James reached the peak of a towering mountain, he saw it. In the distance, a bright light shone, drawing him closer. It was a portal, swirling with colors and energy, like a gateway to another realm.
Without hesitation, James stepped through the portal, ready to face whatever awaited him on the other side.
