"So we are like chargers to these Gods?" Hal asked.
"Yes." John replied.
"No wonder Thanos lost his sanity. He must have seen the death of his own home planet. And this led to him taking up arms against them in a weird way." Yen said.
"Yes. Well Thanos has another history. Don't care much about it. I will take care of the Celestials. If we can't even stop a Celestial, I don't think we have the right to even speak about Black Winter." John said.
"True. That will be our ultimate test. To see if we are worthy enough to face Black Winter." Wayne said.
"Why do they even care about us? They abandoned us. They should stay the f**k out of our way." Tony said as he was angry that as a species they served only as a charger for Gods. He hated this feeling of powerlessness.
"It is what it is. Celestials work on multiverse levels not on a single universe." John said.
"Who was this Immortus guy?" Parker asked as they seemed to have forgotten that the first person who started this downhill was him.
"He is Kang. Well, the future version of Kang. The one truly appointed by the Timekeepers." John said.
"Oh. Loki has a huge headache it seems." Diana said.
"Yes he does. So now you know all." John said. This new information that John gave was too much for all. First it was the Creator and then came the lesser Gods. This was enough to change the whole world for them.
They didn't know such beings even existed and now they know that they exist, they turned out not to be so good.
"John, when is this new celestial is going to be born?" Tony asked.
"I am not sure. A year or so maybe." John said.
"F**k" Geralt said.
"Will we be powerful enough?" Clint murmured.
"We have to be. There is no other way." John said. He just hoped that the new video that he just captured was enough to push his fan values to a high level. And pray that there would be an update. An update is what he needed now.
"I know you all are feeling down now, but we had taken this path the moment we decided to face Black Winter. This is just a bump on the road. There are no shortcuts here." Steve said.
"Together we will face, whatever comes." Wayne said.
"Together." all shouted in unison.
"I know all of you are tired. You all can go home and collect yourselves. We all need a rest after all of this." John said. All nodded at it. Then Guilty Spark appeared as he teleported people to their homes.
Only John, Wayne and Tony remained in their seats.
"Still angry that I didn't tell you about the Celestials. You have always been preaching of no secrets but you yourself kept such a secret from us." Tony said.
"Tony you have to understand that what I know is dangerous. If I go on telling all the secrets you will shaking in fear. One Black Winter has given you enough problems. I can see that you hardly pass time with Pepper now. Do you think over working yourself will solve the problem?" John asked.
"We aren't Gods Tony. I have said this to you before. We can only try with what we can, but that doesn't mean we will lose ourselves in pursuit of power. No power will be enough power. There will always be new threats. New dangers. Do you think that Black Winter will be the last enemy we face? That is just the start."
"I didn't tell you about them only because of this. You have seen how Black Winter made many of us. Clint has stopped sleeping. Natasha just trains all day. Oliver almost had a breakup with Felicity. Do yo think this is healthy for us. Knowing the future?" John asked.
Tony became silent when he said this. He knew that knowing too much was always a problem. He just didn't expect that dangers were just right at their doorstep.
"Go home Tony. Spend time with Pepper. Fights will always be there. We have come a long way from facing terrorists to Gods. We will crush our enemies. We might die along the way, but we can never say that we didn't try." Wayne added to it.
"Yeah. GAIA are the videos ready?" John asked changing the topic now.
"Even after all this all you care about is videos?" Tony asked.
"It's my hobby. Keeps my sanity. You too need to find a hobby. You are going nuts. Calm yourself down." John said
"I will think about it." Tony murmured.
"The videos are ready. Do you want me to upload it everywhere?" GAIA asked.
"Yes upload it on all platforms. Both here and the universe. Tell Lex to handle this." John said.

"Alright. The videos has been uploaded. Now we will have to wait for it's outbreak." GAIA said.
"Hmm. I am off. Wasn't a good day for me. I just want some peace. Seems like I will never get peace in this life." John said and vanished after bidding his goodbyes to them. The next moment he appeared at the doorstep of his house. He was tired mentally today, he needed a good sleep.
John decided to go for a bath and then go straight to sleep. He could see the reaction of the people and the universe later. The spirit of the house made him a good tea. So after drinking it and giving a text to Emma and his father that he was alright, he went to bed.
It was already night when he went to sleep so it was a normal day for him. The next day waking up, he felt refreshed. He came out of his room and after having breakfast he checked how the videos performed on the internet.
And as expected, the video on YouTube virtually exploded. Avengers always had an official page on YouTube and since the video was shown there, it meant the war that was shown was real. But what John didn't expect was that a hashtag was trending on social platforms. And that hashtag wasn't Thanos.
But rather Darkseid. The people of Earth thought that it was Darkseid. John was dumbfounded when he saw this. He never expected that people of Earth would think Thanos was Darkseid. Even though Darkseid and Thanos had similarities but both had completely different motivations.
"Whatever. As long as they watch my works, it's all fine and good." John murmured.
Then John saw another name trending on the internet. It was Naruto. John had a huge smile when he saw this. Only this series would give an ample number of fan values. Since it had multiple episodes, the fan values would almost rise exponentially for sometime and he couldn't wait for it.
The same trend was shown in the web of the universe. Here people knew of Thanos so when they saw the Avengers and the ninjas pummeling Thanos and his army so badly, they were more surprised.
LexCorp had been responsible for the entertainment and spaceship business for some time now. John's works were famous all over their empire because John's works had green lanterns and many had seen Victor before.
But this time when everybody showed up in the fight against Thanos and even more, they were astonished. People never expected that Naruto, the characters of games, were real.
The video of them got coverage in all of the empire and even beyond them. Even Kree got to know of what happened on Mars and that more people had shown up from the works that LexCorp had made.
Of course there were many who accused that the video was fake, but it was soon debunked. People rejoiced that Thanos was dead as he was a menace in all of universe and many feared him a lot. But now the video showed that a Phoenix which people thought was Marco burnt Thanos alive.
People who had never known of them were educated of the anime and movies released by LexCorp so other people who had no interest in all of this rushed to understand who these people were.'
In this way, John's fan value was rising rapidly and he hoped that it would be enough for the next update. But he needed to wait for sometime for it to rise to a high point. Thus John had to wait.
People also got to know that Bruce Wayne was Superman himself, which was a whole new revelation for them. This topic too started a debate. Even Diana's new weapon, Arthur's weird transformation, also got enough coverage.
The World Council also got to see the new Avengers and Wayne gave them a report of who the enemy was and what they wanted. The governments were relieved that the Avengers and Naruto world existed to defend them. And whatever opposition that the governments had to control the Avengers, died down with it.
All the Avengers meanwhile almost disappeared from public view, Only Teen Titans showed up in places of crime in New York and they were barraged with reporters.
In this way, a whole month went by. It was already 2018 by then and on this day, all the Avengers had gathered in the ring for a very special ceremony. All came for this ceremony. Even Thor showed up for this special one.
It was Tony's wedding with Pepper.
Tony finally decided to marry her after being reminded by John that he had been missing in life. He realized that now his life revolved around enemies and he needed to change it. So he proposed to her on New Year's Eve and she happily accepted. Pepper too knew that Tony had been going through a hard time but was happy that now Tony had decided to let himself be free.
