Death and Destruction
It was a small planet orbiting a gas giant in Shi'ar controlled space. The small chunk of rock didn't have any remarkable features on it and it held no resources to be utilized. It was rather insignificant as planets went, but it had been the site of a significant battle in the fate of the universe.

Dead bodies littered the ground and a silver surf board was stuck point down in the ground. Smoke billowed from wrecked space craft and blood, human and alien alike, seeped into the fine dirt covering the surface of the planet. It seemed unfitting for this barren place to be the final resting place of some of the finest heroes in the universe.

There was a flash of light.

Corpses, so many corpses. As Kev looked around he had to reassure himself that he hadn't been sent back to the Nightmare Scenario of which the little man had spoken. The bodies weren't decayed right. And they were on another planet.

All right. Priority: talk to a blonde girl with a strange bracelet. He looks around again. There aren't many living people to sort through.

Bucky looks around. His eyes harden as he sees the corpses.

It's gruesome, but he's seen as worse in Poland in the 40s. Still, he recognizes some of these bodies. He crouches down and closes the eyes on the body of one of the heroes he recognizes.

The body Bucky ends up crouching next to has a red, white and blue shield - the shield is cracked in half, to say nothing of the man who was trying to use it when that particular killing blow came.

The girl with the bangle on her arm is nearby as well, looking, only momentarily, despondent, before the nightmare scenario shakes her out of it quickly. The shield and Mjolnir are out in a second.

"Anyone recognize the scene?"

Natasha was disoriented for a moment, but she eventually got her bearings. She stared at the bodies and behind her helmet her mouth was hanging open.

"My God," she said in shock. She recognized some of the bodies. Avengers. Or they had been in her world. While she never became an Avenger, she had met them on a few occasions.

Dani just stared, aghast. "This is horrible..." Yeah, she was just stating the obvious, but still couldn't help but feel her stomach lurch.

Oh no you don't. You are not going to hurl in front of your new teammates.

"2, 3, 5, 7, 11, 13," Kev mutters, trying to keep himself down.

"You must be Sarah. We're new. I'm Kevin Kinross. I don't recognize anything, but, well, we're in space and....that Thanos guy, this'd be Valentine's Day for him, wouldn't it?" Kev tends to think Death's a Lovely Lady too, in a way, but...definitely not this way.

Sarah finally notices the new company amidst the horrors of the field, as well as some people missing. She also notices Danielle - familiar, certainly, along with no Rose, no Joe and no Quinn.

She sighs. This doesn't get any easier. "I am Sarah, yes, Sarah Rogers. The Tallus is also giving me a lot of positive reinforcement at you mentioning Thanos, Mr. Kinross. Ok, so does anyone recognize anything like this related to Thanos? Not familiar to me."

Starfox was chosen to approach the heroes, once the fleets discovered Thanos was nowhere to be seen or scanned. He has a way with people, after all, should the Exiles prove hostile.

He looks about, finally choosing Bucky to approach. He looks experienced, and vaguely familiar.

"Who are you, and where is Thanos?"

"He the bastard than managed this?" Roxanne asks. a slight aura of flame haloing her frame. "If so, me an' Big Z got go look 'em in the eye."

"I'd have a lot more questions for you, but you'd just have to repeat them up there." he gestures towards the dozens... no, hundreds of ships coming out of their various rifts and warps.

"Moondragon has already said she doesn't think you're a threat, but just in case, you're under many, many guns. Do you mind if we play host and beam you up to our ship... or would you prefer to wait for Skrull hospitality?"

He eyes Roxanne. "He is, there's more information available... and a lot more trouble too."

"Beam us up," Natasha said. Obviously they were here to do something and it was better to get help than fighting everyone every step of the way.

At this point, all screens switch from comms to show a feed from Shi'ar long range scanners, giving some visual impressions of the battle.

Thanos, wearing the gauntlet, took the best shots all the heroes gave him, and killed them all, one after another. In all, the battle lasted perhaps fifteen minutes, to tear through the Avengers, the Fantastic Four, many of the X-Men, and what few other heroes were along.

As Thanos was raising his hand in victory, a silver streak appears in the sky. The Silver Surfer, appearing from a point of light above the field, races by Thanos, tearing the Infinity Gauntlet from his hand. As the Surfer is passing, gauntlet in hand, Thanos blasts him.
The Surfer is knocked from his board in the image, and loses hold of the Infinity Gauntlet. He reaches for it as they fall - and his finger briefly scrapes a facet of the Space Gem.

The Gauntlet and the gems disappear in a flash of light. A moment later, the Surfer hits the ground a second behind his board impacting the ground. As he's rising, Thanos blasts him - then again, and again, until the Surfer ceases moving entirely.... and then a few more times besides.

Once he has vented his fury, Thanos looks about the field, then teleports away.

Five seconds after he has teleported from the field, the Exiles appear right where he had been standing.

Well, that certainly wasn't fun to watch. Particularly the parts with the few people he knew personally. He fidgets with his hands, derives a few prime numbers in his head.

But soon, on to business. "So...didn't manage to properly get them, but he did manage to get them away. Scatter them or something. Well. Is there really anything to do but try to go after them? I mean, other than waiting around for the end, which I'd normally not have as much problem with, but there are Circumstances, so today'd be a bad day to die."

Those Gems had to be retrieved. There was no question about it. But it was likely a random teleport, scattering them across the universe without rhyme or reason. Tracking them again would be almost impossible.

His teammates needed to be aware of this. "I AM GROOT."

Corsair watched the information and watched with anger as Thanos tore apart the X-Men. He watched his son fall before Thanos and before it was over, he'd made his decision.

"That ride shouldn't be hard to find, Miss." Corsair says, stoically. "If none of these people are going where you want to go...I'll take you.

"The question is, do we split up and each take a gem, or go looking for each one by one as a team?" Natasha asked.

Before they all departed to the appropriate ships, Kev got his moment with the Widow.
"It's really really unlikely, especially with the mind gem and not time or reality, but there's cosmic stuff going on we can't necessarily understand so I thought I'd ask you just in case. It's possible I might need your help if we both survive to the point of getting back here."

Natasha nodded. "Of course." She was curious. Then again she was always curious. It was a character flaw. "What can I help you with?"

"On the off chance that certain particular things go horribly wrong -- as opposed to thing just going horribly wrong in general -- if we all get back here, I need you to pay attention to if anything's warped about my body or if I'm glowing orange. And if I am, I need you to kill me. You'd be the best for it." It's all said in a sincere, earnest, I-need-a-favor tone.

Natasha was surprised for a moment, but quickly regained her composure. "I take it glowing orange is very bad as in destroying the universe or destroying reality type of bad? Or is it some other type of bad?"

"Well, it'd take a while to destroy the universe, but if my powers came back somehow, I could get a pretty good start on whatever Thanos has managed to leave alive. And I would. But as long as you had your suit on, you could just reach into the orange and rip me apart before I got started. I kind of had an allergy, when I was a monster, to too much metal."

"Like I said, it's unlikely. My powers were pretty permanently sealed off two years ago. But it's not the kind of thing you want to leave to chance with so many unknowns about, you know?"

Natasha listened carefully and when he was done she nodded. She put a hand on his shoulder. "I will honor your request and do it only if it is absolutely necessary."
