Wanda walked over to the edge of her castle's room, looking at his back with a pressed smile. She walked over, hugging him from behind, resting her head over his, "God, I missed you."

She felt a touch on his hand on hers, cupping her palm in his hand, making her breathe in relief.

She took a deep breath, walking to his front, stroking his chest, looking at his gaze fixed at the sky, "looking at your handiwork?"

Jay wrapped his hand around her waist, staring at the blue sky and the scarlet Earth, "no, I was looking at the scarlet sea."

Wanda stroked his jaw, worriedly looking at him, "that is your handiwork."

Jay let out a breath, resting his hand on the railings, glancing down at her, "it's actually the handiwork of the gems, not mine."

"Is that why you are out of it?"

"When I had the five infinity stones-"

"Five? Didn't you only have four? Space stone was kind of busy with the alien invasion and all?"

Jay chuckled, with pain throughout his body, holding the railing to support his body, talking near her ear, "yeah. But I never needed that space stone. The other infinite gems were able to guide me to the space stone from the new world. I needed the frequency of the new universe and the reach of space stone to effect both universes."

He took a deep breath, "anyway, with the five together. I used my soul and my flames for soul gem as collateral. But something happened then; the two soul stones appeared and fused into one. Not only that, they took most of my soul, and the other gems seemingly fed on the bodies from the parallel universes, and used that as the catalyst to fuse with one another."

"Does that mean?"

"Yeah...I wasn't the only one that died that day. Every last one of my body was sucked in by those gems," Jay whispered, closing his eyes.

Usually, there was this noise, these voices from all the other universes, but for the first time ever. Jay's mind was silent, "the silence...is almost scary."

"It's ok...it's ok...this might be a good thing," Wanda hugged him, putting her forehead on his shoulder, stroking his head.

Jay pulled back, stroking her cheek, looking at the quizzical expression on her face, "it's not. I have dealt with the stones before, and yet I underestimated them. I have lost most of my soul and all of my powers; without my soul. I can't even use the magic. But the stones gained something. The ability to merge and connect with their counterparts. I dread just thinking about what would happen if they all merge together."

Wanda laughed, holding his hand, "no...you are thinking too much." She worriedly frowned, "you are worried too much, right?"

"I hope so," Jay chuckled, "it might have been Echo's fault. She said something about not wanting to see me die. And so, the stones fulfilled her wish. And then, I was hoping to find some way to make Primo's body real. So Ruby doesn't find anything wrong during the training. And that body has become real. Either way, it doesn't change the fact that I am just a human. Well, two."

Wanda rolled her eyes, linking her hand around his neck, "two humans with supersoldier level strength, a scent that makes me want to eat you. And the fact that you taste even better doesn't really stop me. Also..."

Jay pressed his lips with a smile, "I am smart, and I must have planned for this possibility?"

Wanda chuckled, "ok, I will give you that if you did."

Jay kissed her lips, softly tasting her upper lip, "yes, I did. This is what I created Ring of One for. Even a noob can use magic with it. Just one problem."

"What?"

"I have no idea where Echo and the Ring is, and all my hideouts are only accessible through teleportation. Especially the important ones. So, I can't contact her. Which can only be accessed my soul's frequency."

Wanda raised her eyebrow, "not a very intelligent design, is it?"

Jay walked away, rubbing his head, "it was an awesome idea. Didn't really think that the two realities would collide. I have lost my labs, my hideout, my equipment, my powers, my soul. The only reason I am even alive is because of the nature of my existence. Be it spread out or divided. And the timing couldn't be worse."

Wanda hugged her arms, watching him pace around with a smile, "then it's decided. Your days of running around being a superhero are over. You are under house arrest."

Jay rolled his eyes, "as much as I want to stay with you, but I have somewhere to be."

He raised his hand, but other than a few sparks, there was nothing. He clenched his hand, raising one side of his mouth, closing his eyes, "yeah, can you book me a ticket?"

Wanda chuckled, walking past him, "no way, mister. As I said, you are under house arrest. Use the other body to take care of things over there. You will be staying with me."

Jay raised his eyebrow, "do you want me to start calling you mother as well?"

Wanda looked back, wrinkling her nose, "ew." But soon, her wrinkled expression turned into a grin, "ok, yes."

"You are enjoying this, aren't you?"

Wanda shook her head, grinning, "I haven't even started enjoying this."

Jay let out a smile, looking down for a moment, "wait, so I am...like a slave?"

Wanda tilted her head, opening the door connecting roof and mansion, "mmm, not slave. More like a captive."

She ran her eyes over his body with a lecherous grin, "and I know how to enjoy my captives."

"You are an evil witch."

Wanda smacked his ass, "come on, move it."

"This won't end well for you."

"Yeah, Yeah, heard that before."

New York, Queens,

Primo opened his eyes, groaning when suddenly a shadow appeared on him. He opened his eyes, looking at Ruby's worried face, "Dad, you ok? Want something? Food? Water? Tea?"

Primo let out a smile, speaking in a hoarse voice, "water?"

Ruby lightly nodded, walking off as he sat upon the sofa, looking towards May and Peter, "how long did I sleep for?"

May took the remote, reducing the sound of the tv, "about half an hour. I don't know if you are getting better or worse."

Primo ruffled his golden hair, closing his eyes, "I am good. Just need a little rest. It's Ruby I am worried about. She won't leave my side for a moment."

May lightly smiled, "that kid is just scared. New York was attacked by enemies, and you nearly died in that attack. Everyone was worried."

"I was worried!" Peter raised his hand, speaking in his sharp baby voice, unblinkingly staring at Primo, "uncle! How were the aliens?! And the Avengers? You saw them, didn't you?!"

Primo patted his head, smiling, "yeah, I saw them. They were ok."

"Ok?! You mean cool, right?! Thor was so awesome. He filled the wormhole with lightning, and Black Widow directly went to space to fight against their main forces! And there was Captain America! Iron Man and Scarlet Witch even with to the other universe to stop their supervillains from destroying our Earth!"

Primo glanced towards Ruby, walking over with a glass of water, which he took, gulping water down, looking at Peter, "so? which one is your favorite?"

May chuckled, lovingly stroking Peter's head, "it's either Hulk or the Gravity Girl."

Ruby sat down on the floor like Peter, facing the tv, "Oh, Gravity Girl?"

Peter nodded with a blush and fanboy eyes, "yeah, she's so cool! She took care of all those aliens that slipped through the Avengers! There is even a video of her entrance!"

He jumped on his feet, raising his right hand, raising his body on his toes, making his voice deeper, "Is this the alien dumping ground? I brought trash."

Primo burst out in laughter, putting his hand in front of his mouth, trying to stifle his laughter, "very cool."

Ruby looked down, with a red face, putting her hand on Primo's shin, burying her nails in his shin.

Primo coughed, "right, right...sorry. I think that Gravity Girl would love your performance."

May Parker let out a breath, staring at the news, the picture of a spaceship coming to their Earth, "the world has really changed. Now there is another Earth in the sky. Aliens are invading from the sky; superheroes are coming out of the shadow. It's becoming more dangerous."

Primo glanced towards Ruby, shifting his orange eyes towards Peter. He could feel the last bit of his flames inside Peter, "don't worry. The flames are still there. I am sure, when there is need, the Superheroes will rise and protect us."

May Parker stared at the other Earth, breathing in, "I am not worried about the villains."
