《Tour Guide | Steve Rogers ✓》Chapter Twenty

"Drop to 2600, heading 0-3-0."
"I hope you're right about this, Cap. Or we're gonna land a lot faster than you to." Sam sighed looking out of the front window at the trees of the forest heading straight towards the Quinjet.
Quinn Greene braced herself for impact but the jet soon emerged on the other side of a camouflaged force field revealing Wakanda and its surrounds.
Although Quinn had heard about Wakanda from both Steve and Aquila nothing could prepare her for the stunning view as the Quinjet touched down on Wakandan soil.
Quinn disembarked the Quinjet, looking around in amazement before finally settling on the King and his troops that had gathered to greet them. She walked forward slightly, falling in line with Aquila and Natasha as Steve stepped forward to shake the King's hand.
"Should we bow?" Bruce asked Rhodey concerned. Quinn could only share a smile with Aquila who was also trying to conceal her own smirk.
"Yeah, he's a king."
"Seems like I'm always thanking you for something," Steve said, as Bruce bowed awkwardly in the background.
"Honestly, Bruce. What on earth are you doing?" Aquila teased in mock shock.
"Uh, we don't do that here," T'Challa said while Bruce could only shoot both Rhodey and Aquila a betrayed look as everyone else hid their smiles. "So how big of an assault can we expect?"
"Uh, sir, I think you can expect quite a big assault."
"How we looking?" Natasha asked.
"You will have my Kingsguard, the Border Tribe, the Dora Milaje, and. . ." The King gestures to the people gathered around him.
"A semi-stable, 100-year-old man." Bucky Barnes said as he walked up to join the larger group.

Quinn could only smile, Bucky was already looking a lot happier than the last time she had seen him.
"How you been, Buck?" Steve asked, sharing a hug with his best friend.
"Uh, no bad, for the end of the world," Bucky replied with a shrug before his eyes landed on Quinn. "I don't quite think we've ever been properly introduced, but you must be Quinn."
"Yeah, that would be me," Quinn replied, shaking Bucky's hand.
"It's nice to finally properly meet you. I remember seeing you under the overpass a few years ago but that's about it."
"Yes, of course," Quinn replied. "You don't happen to remember a visit to the Smithsonian a few years ago, do you?"
"Yeah. . ." Bucky trailed off unsure before it hit him. "Oh, Steve told me all about you being a Tour Guide, that wasn't all of course though."
"Tell me about it. He can never shut up about her." Sam chimed in with an eye roll.
"Oh drop it," Steve replied dramatically, Sam and Bucky only cackling at his discomfort.
The team soon gathered around Shuri, King T'Challa's younger sister in what looked like her lab who scanned over Vision's body, projecting a hologram of the stone in her palm.
"Whoa. The structure is polymorphic."
"Right, we had to attach each neuron non-sequentially," Bruce explained.
"Why didn't you just reprogram the synapses to work collectively?" Shuri asked.
"Yeah, Bruce." Keira chimed in. "Why didn't you do that?"
"Because we didn't think of it."
"I'm sure you did your best."
"Can you do it?" Wanda asked, worry filling her features.
"Yes, but there are more than two trillion neurons here. One misalignment could cause a cascade of circuit failures." Shuri said before turning to her brother. "It will take time, brother."

"How long do you think it will take?" Quinn asked.
"As long as you can give me," Shuri replied.
"Something's entered the atmosphere." The general of the Dora Milaje announced.
"Hey, Cap, we got a situation here." Sam's voice came over the comms soon after.
Everyone's heads suddenly snapped to the window as everyone could only watch in shock as debris from the three ships landing ricocheted off the dome surrounding Wakanda.
"It's too late." Vision groaned as he struggled to lift himself up. "We need to destroy the stone now."
"Vision, get your ass back on the table." Nat ordered.
"We will hold them off," T'Challa said as he started for the door, his troops following him.
"Wanda, as soon as the stone's out of his head. . . you blow it to hell." Steve said to Wanda.
"I will," Wanda replied, sharing a look with Steve.
Quinn breathed out a deep sigh, calming her nerves as she watched everyone prepare to battle whatever was outside the dome.
"Quinn," Steve called, heading straight towards the blonde. "Do you think you can stay up here with Wanda?"
"I'm coming with the rest of you down there," Quinn replied defiantly.
"No, you can't. Please, just stay up here."
"Steve, I know I don't that same amount of experience as the rest of you but I can handle myself down there, trust me."
"Quinn, I can't protect you down there, if something happened. . ." Steve trailed off unable to finish his sentence.
"Nothing is going to go wrong. It's all going to turn out fine, and we are all going to stop Thanos together, just like I said on the Quinjet."
"Quinn, please," Steve begged, worry evident in his features.
"Steve, let me go. It's dangerous down there, I know but I can handle this. Nothing is going to happen."
Steve could only look at Quinn, the dilemma of forcing her to stay or let her go was clear in his eyes as he ran a hand worriedly through his hair.
"Fine, just please stay safe. I can't let anything happen to you."
"And it won't," Quinn replied with a reassuring smile.
Quinn watched nervously as Steve, Natasha, Aquila and T'Challa returned back to their positions with the rest of the troops gathered after a brief talk with part of Thanos' troops.
"Did they surrender?" Bucky asked.
"Not exactly," Steve replied, standing next to Quinn as thousands of alien creatures bounded towards the barrier.
"What the hell."
"My thought exactly. I think we may have pissed her off. " Aquila said before she transformed, flying up to patrol above with Sam and Rhodey.
Quinn could only watch in horror as the bizarre alien creatures threw themselves at the barrier, killing themselves in the process.
"You see the teeth on those things?" Sam asked over comms.
"Alright, back up, Sam, Aquila. You're both gonna get your wings singed." Rhodey replied before dropping mines on the aliens.
"Ah, noted."
"Cap, if these things circle the perimeter and get in behind us. . . there's nothing between them and Vision." Bruce said over his own comms, gesturing where the aliens were searching for another entrance.
"Then we better keep 'em in front of us."
"How do we do that?" Okoye asked, turning to T'Challa.
"We open the barrier. On my signal, open North-West Section Seventeen."
"This will be the end of Wakanda."
"Then it will be the noblest ending in history."

Keys of the Endpoint
Keys of the Endpoint is an illustrated web serial about the re-birth of civilization in a fantastical world suffering from a recent apocalyptic event. Every day, people appear from the storms that ravage the Endpoint. Whisked away from their own time and place by storms in their homelands, these newcomers find themselves in a hostile place made up of ruins and people from every timeline imaginable. Stranger still, they all soon discover they're carrying silver keys that grant each holder incredible powers. On Earth, most people have mundane excuses for the disappearances, but not Isaac. Having lost his brother Finn to one of these storms, Isaac becomes obsessed with finding a pattern. Not to prevent more people disappearing, but rather to get taken by the storms himself in order to find his brother. While chasing Finn’s faint trail, Isaac soon discovers how little he really knew about himself, his brother and how much loss one person can take. In Keys of the Endpoint there's portal fantasy, personal drama, magic (useable by everyone), plenty of combat, power progression, mysteries, factions, feuds and eventually war (in that order). The magic system is well defined and modular with nigh infinite combinations. The story starts out with one of the two main characters looking for his lost brother but quickly expands in scope from that point on.

In a land of crimson and darkness, a lone door stood in a valley of fiery petals. Within was a golden mansion, home to the Count and his seven guests.

Nemo didn’t know the answer to that question, but she sure as heck wanted to find out. A new world meant adventure, and adventure meant discovery, and discovery meant fun!

This ultimate housemaid would stop at nothing until the job was done. It didn’t matter if the manor lay ruined for many years, it didn’t matter if all the guests could bring about the end of the world, it doubly didn’t matter that Nemo was a low-level scrub, whatever that meant. She would level up, get better at fixing things, and nothing would stop her from having the Count take her on an adventure! Now, where did the last giant floating eyeball go? next arc release date: indefinite hiatus Disclaimer: the current cover is a place-holder stock photo taken from Stockfresh.

Sweetleaf Cultivation
If you’re reading this. Not cool Dude! Or Dudette. Hashtag Resist. Seriously though, it’s not nice to read other people's diaries. Yes, it's a diary, kind of. The only men who call their diaries journals have an issue with their own masculinity I think. Well, I guess I can’t be too angry, considering if this is in anyone else’s hands I’m probably dead. Or I lost it. I lose stuff a lot. Since you’re here, regardless of the reason, I guess I’ll tell my story, such as it is. I know, why tell my story when I could tell you about the Fall of Killianor, or the story of when Micha the Bold banded together with his underdog group of misfits to destroy the Pallantine Regime. Hell, even the tale of Tulsa and Gran’s star crossed love affair would probably be better. If you don’t think so after finishing this you more than likely have poor taste. Weird taste, at any rate. Hello RR! Welcome to the greatest work of fiction you will ever read! ... .... Did you believe that? Cause its not. At all. This is my first work that I will have published in any fashion, and to be completely honest is more to gain practice for my real story. That is not to say I do not care about it. I do. I will do my best to finish it in, if not satisying, at least a conclusive manner. I will warn you however that updates will be infrequent at best though chapter length will not be under 2000 words. I work third shift currently, and at over 40 hours a week I do not have much time to really devote to this at the moment. I DO have an outline for the novel complete, but currently only about 5 actual chapters written and edited. There will be mistakes, including grammar and continuity, plot holes, etc.. If you see these please either comment or feel free to message me directly, and I will get it updated asap. Aside from a fledgeling authors mishaps, expect to find a somewhat comedic slice of life, with a mish mash of xianxia and western fantasy themes, tropes and the like. There will be some gore, network tv levels of sexuality, and absolutely no harems. There will also be COPIUS amount of swearing and drug use and while I said there would be no harems already he may find people in polyamorous situations. I hope you enjoy this, and as a last aside I beg of you not to rate it super low without justification, and if you give a bad rating please leave an actual review so that i know what I need to work on. *Original cover as of 09/01/20. Mishmash of stock photos and edits. HAVE FUN!
