Hi all! Hope you are all doing okay!
This is a story based on what I imagined happened after Avenger’s Infinity War’s ending; in normality. Enjoy!
April 18th 2018
I was walking down the road today towards the shops, because I wanted to buy some Cadbury’s Oreo for myself. I had been hearing in the news there had been high levels of conflict which the avengers we’re dealing with. This morning it had said Tony Stark – Iron Man had gone missing after going into space. I was bewildered by this news, who will be protecting the people where the avengers are not. Worryingly, I thought I might have to step up and become a friendly neighbourhood helper, whilst the true heroes were away. I have never thought of myself being something special. Working average job, and having not many friends made be believe I was meant for nothing. I always look back in failure at the young boy who had aspirations to be something great, but was knocked down so much he couldn’t get back up.
Around lunchtime was when it got serious. The daily bugle was calling out for Spider-Man to come home. J Jonah Jameson was never a fan of the web slinger, but now he was worried about him? Then I knew it was scary. I stayed calm throughout this though, I had to assure others were okay. I helped a woman get her groceries. I felt happy being useful, but everybody was at the stores; stockpiling and panic buying in case of the worst scenario. That is New York for you.
I was having a coffee in Times Square around 3PM, the coffee was too warm for me to drink, so I admired the space around me. People were everywhere, running and climbing over others to get their supplies. I was surprised and disappointed in society. \
Then it happened, the crackle in the sky. The sound was so loud we all knew something had happened.
People around me had started to turn to dust, what had the avengers done?
I though they always won, and protected the people.
This was not the case.
Times Square went to having 70 people in the area, we lost over 1000 people in the area. I was horrified, seeing friends turn to nothing. I tried to phone my mother, but it went to voicemail. Although I had spoken to her yesterday, the absence of her voice made me panicked. I didn’t turn to dust, what do I do?
