Omake: Infinite Universes 1

Greenwich Village, Spring of 2018, Earth 199999

In a street that had been covered in debris, a confrontation was beginning.

Tony Stark, Doctor Strange, Wong, and Bruce Banner strode forward together, watching as a blue beam of light is emitted from a donut-shaped ship above. The beam disappeared, revealing two figures. One, a thin elderly looking being with a massive flat space where a human nose would usually be. The other, a massive and towering being carrying a hammer and covered in armor, smirked at the group of heroes.

The elderly alien, a man who went by the name Ebony Maw, began to speak. As he did, none of those in the street saw a figure far above flying through the air, a green light emitting from it’s back as it soared on orange wings.

The heroes and Ebony Maw traded quips for a moment, before the elderly man lost patience at Tony Stark.

Something he shared with many people. Ebony Maw told Cull Obsidian to charge, and with that, the battle began. No one noticed the green figure waiting above on the rooftop.

Tony Stark revealed his nanomachine armor when Bruce Banner was unable to transform, blasting away Cull Obsidian, only to be sent flying in turn. Cull Obsidian, angered by his sudden flight, rises up to his feet and prepares to reenter battle, launching his hammer at Tony.

A familiar green flash flies past Tony, bashing the hammer out of the air before it can hit Tony, before launching forward and punching Cull Obsidian in the face with enough force to shake the ground, sending him flying towards a nearby park.

“Hey, good to see you back, Bruce!” Tony shouted at the green figure. In turn, the figure looked over at him.

And Tony stared for a moment. “You uh… You’re not Bruce.”

“What tipped you off,” the green figure teased. She smirked at him, then rocketed into the air towards the park. Tony, meanwhile, focused on Ebony Maw again, firing twin beams of energy at the alien, who blocked them with pieces of rubble.

Then Doctor Strange dropped from the sky to block a piece of tossed rubble on one of his shields, dropping it to let Iron Man fire another repulsor blast at Ebony Maw, whose face twisted in frustration.

Bruce, meanwhile, was slapping himself in the face as he ran in the middle of a grassy field. “Come on, Hulk! Come out, you’re killing me he-”

“NOOO!” Bruce’s face morphed, half of it becoming a sickly green collor, growing in size as a voice that wasn’t his own screamed. Then it returned to normal, leaving him to fall back onto the grass. “No!” he screamed to the sky incredulously. “What do you mean no!?”

His internal struggle suddenly took a backseat to an external one when Cull Obsidian crash landed in the park, just a few feet away from him. Bruce staggered back, staring as the massive being rose to his feet. Cull snarled something, then noticed Bruce. A sickly grin spread on the muscular aliens face.

“Uh, hi?” Bruce said nervously.

Cull chuckled, raising his hammer to smash Bruce to paste. Bruce raised his arms uselessly, closing his eyes and wincing when her heard the hammer hit flesh.

It took a second for him to realize that he felt no pain. He opened his eyes, then gaped at the sight before him.

The hammer was being held by a being with skin of a green hue that he had only ever seen in reflections of broken glass. The figure was tall, built with muscle, and curvy. She was wearing workout shorts and a t-shirt, a pair of tough boots on her feet. Her long hair flowed in the wind. She turned her head to smirk at Bruce.

“Hey, cuz. Need a hand?” she said confidently.

“...Jenny?” Bruce stuttered in shock.

Cull, enraged, raised his hammer to strike once more. Jen kicked straight out. Her boots slammed deep into the groin of her opponent. Bruce winced as Cull gasped in shock and horror, before a relatively small fist uppercut him back.

“Don’t touch my cousin,” Jen growled, emerald fists clenched in fury. She bent her legs and jumped forward, cratering the ground beneath her.

Cull Obsidian, just getting to his feet, swung his hammer out at her, smashing her out of the air as it’s chain extended out to keep throwing her..

“JENNY!” Bruce shouted in two voices.

Jen landed on her back, flipped back to her feet, and grabbed the chain hammer. She pulled, hard. Cull was lifted off his feet and towards her in a vicious tug, sent flying towards her. She spun around and roundhouse kicked him in the face, sending him back, before looking at Bruce. “If you can’t help, hide, now!”

With that, Jen jumped back into the fray. Cull and her hit each other with immense force, sending shockwaves out from the impact as Bruce watched in stunned silence.

Back with Tony and Dr. Strange, Ebony Maw was still throwing pieces of the street at the pair.

“Will you just give up already?” Tony snarked, blocking a hail of bricks shaped into daggers with a shield made of nanobots. “You’re getting your ass kicked.”

“I think not. Your powers are fake and mercurial things, easy enough to overcome,” Ebony Maw said to the two bearded men.

“Yeah, how’s that working for you so far?” Strange said with a smirk, floating nearby to block an array of sharp stones from skewering him.

“You wanna run, let bygones be bygones?” Tony added, getting hit by a car. He rolled with the blow as Detroit steel shattered around his armored form, then flew forward to keep fighting.

“I will leave, when your corpses are cooling on the stones of this filthy rock,” Ebony Maw snarled, ripping a sign off a building with his telekinesis and tossing it at the pair, only for a portal to open just in front of him to let the sign harmlessly fall into the Sahara Desert. Then another portal opened behind Ebony Maw, who spun to see Tony standing there to fire a shot at him, which Ebony Maw barely dodged. “Imputent little-”

The sound of an explosion drew their attention. All three fighters looked up to see the alien spaceship begin to list over. Ebony Maw stared upwards in rage as smoke poured out of a hole in the side.

“...You do that?” Tony asked Strange, who was also staring upwards.

“Nope. I think it was that guy.”

A figure fell from the ship, landing next to Tony and Strange with a loud booming noise. A green flash of light was followed by a human man standing there, grinning. Like Tony and Strange, he had a beard. His hair was pulled back into a ponytail on the top of his head, and the sides were shaved. He was also wearing black armor with green highlights across it that covered his body, a large dial resting on his wrist.

“Wassup,” the man grinned at Ebony Maw. “I am here to kick ass and chew bubblegum.”

Ebony Maw snarled and launched a large truck at the trio. Tony raised a hand and blasted the truck out of the air. The man, to his credit, didn’t flinch. “And I’m all out of bubblegum.”

“Jesus, are you just a giant Fanboy?” Tony asked.

That made the man flinch and sigh. “Everytime, Tony. Everytime.”

Then the man raised the large green dial on his wrist and pressed down on it. In a flash of light, he became a large being made of diamond.

“Diamondhead!”

Ebony Maw tossed another car, only for the crystal being to slice it in half by turning it’s right hand into a sword. Then it looked over at Tony and Dr. Strange. “Am I doing this on my own, or do neither of you old guys want to help save the Earth?”

“OLD!?” Tony and Strange said in unison, sharing a sour look before raising their hands, magic and technology lighting up their palms.

Ebony Maw took one look at the gathered trio, eyes narrowed, and raised his hands, several objects rising into the air around him.

Then he was forced to toss aside Cull Obsidian when he came falling from the sky. The giant alien crashed into a building and wearily looked around, staggering to his feet.

The green woman from earlier dropped next to the diamond man, raising her fists. Wong showed up next, raising his arms to summon a magical shield. Tony’s hands shifted into a pair of powerful cannons. Dr. Strange lifted into the air. And the diamond man clenched a fist of crystal with a sound like stone shattering, his sword hand slicing the air.

“Five on two,” the crystal man growled.

“Offers still on the table,” Tony added. “You can run to daddy if you want, tell him you screwed up.”

“But if you come back,” the green woman punched her fists together, a thunderclap echoing, and grinned. “It’ll be for an ass-whooping.”

“...When I come back,” Ebony Maw said sourly. “It’ll be to strip the flesh from your-”

“Yada, yada, yada,” Tony cut him off.

“Go, you fucking moron. Go and start writing your will,” Ebony Maw stared at the crystal man with eyes full of hate. Then a blue light came from the damaged ship, pulling the insensate Cull Obsidian and the enraged Ebony Maw into its depths before it lifted up into the air, pouring smoke while it took off.

Diamond guy shone a bright green, turning back into the human from earlier. Then he and the green woman turned to look at Wong, Tony, and Strange.

“So,” Tony’s helmet pulled back, revealing his face. “Any chance you two could explain what amusement park you came out of?”

“New York,” the man said sarcastically, getting a chuckle from the woman. Then he scowled. “Seriously though. I’m Dial. This is She-Hulk. And we’re Avengers from another world. And an arrogant badass named Professor Paradox sent us here to help yours.”
