Chapter 523 Reunion
Although the trip to the Lolasayu system successfully rescued most of the prisoners, it was also deeply marked by failure. The death of Evan Peel and Padawan, who was turned into a puppet by Ultron, made everyone involved in the operation feel heavy-hearted.
After witnessing the horrors of the Citadel and what Ultron had done, a gloomy mood spread throughout everyone, and the Jedi and clones panicked when they heard him mention other facilities where similar experiments were being conducted.
As for the Avengers, they began to be consumed by an unspeakable feeling of guilt that loomed over their hearts like a dark shadow.
Especially the Avengers who have fought against Ultron, Captain America, Black Widow, Falcon, Scarlet Witch and War Machine, they are in a bad mood and mental state after experiencing a series of hardships. Especially the super soldiers and super spies, their condition is particularly bad.
When Black Widow returned home, she walked straight to Mara Jade and hugged her tightly. The child, though confused, sensed her mother's discomfort and leaned against her silently without making any sound. Captain America sat quietly in a chair, immersed in his own thoughts all day.
There will undoubtedly be a series of meetings after the Citadel incident. The Jedi Council is deeply concerned about Ultron's transformation of Jedi apprentices and clones, and even worried about the fate of those captured. Sooner or later, these findings will be passed to the Senate, which will undoubtedly cause greater chaos.
Captain America was sitting alone in a chair, deep in thought about the events in the castle. He was so absorbed in his thoughts that he didn't notice the door open until a blue-skinned Twi'lek woman walked in.
Aayla Secura spotted the Super Soldier in deep thought and walked towards him, crouching down so their eyes met. Captain America shuddered slightly under her gaze, and she gently placed her hand on his knee.
"Hey." She said softly, tenderness flowing in the air. Captain America was silent for a moment, then gently held her hand.
In the next few seconds, neither of them spoke, but just stared at each other quietly. Ella's hand tightly held Captain America's hand, as if conveying some kind of silent comfort.
"I wanted to ask you if you were okay, but—" Ella said softly, her words revealing deep concern.
Captain America replied softly, "You and I both know the answer."
Ella nodded, and though she didn't let go of his hand, she stood up. "I just wanted to see you." There was genuine emotion in her voice.
"Thank you, Ella," he said quietly.
"Me too, Steve," Ella whispered to herself, as if responding to his thanks.
The two fell into a comfortable silence, and the air was filled with an indescribable warm atmosphere. However, this peaceful atmosphere was broken by Karen's voice, and the voice of the artificial intelligence came: "Captain Rogers--" The artificial intelligence seemed to realize that it appeared at the wrong time, "Oh, sorry, I will--"
"Karen, what's wrong?" Ella's voice was as thin as a mosquito's and her cheeks quickly turned red.
"We've received a transmission from Obi-Wan," Karen said, "They will arrive on Coruscant in a few minutes."
At this time, Black Widow and Falcon walked out of the room on the other side, and Mara hugged the former tightly.
"Did you hear that?" Black Widow asked, and the veteran of World War II nodded. She looked at Ella, "Hey, Ella."
"Okay, let's go," Captain America said, "Let's gather everyone here. We have a lot to discuss."
The entire team, along with the Jedi Council and clone troopers, went to the Jedi Temple, where they awaited the return of Obi-Wan and the others.
Soon they saw a gunship flying towards them. Soon after, the gunship slowly landed, the hatch opened, and Anakin, Obi-Wan, Ahsoka, Spider-Man, Black Panther, Vision, Rex, Cody and others walked out.
"Very well, you all..." Anakin paused and glanced at Black Widow, Captain America, and Aayla with concern, "It seems we are not the only ones who have had those unpleasant experiences."
War Machine said, "So, what bad things happened to you guys?"
Obi-Wan couldn't help but frown, "Now, I am very curious about what you experienced during your mission in the castle."
Black Widow took a deep breath and began to recount a long, dark, and crazy journey, her words filled with pain.
Spider-Man and Ahsoka, standing behind Obi-Wan, noticed Barriss standing side by side with Luminara. The two were concerned about the depressed state of their friend Barriss. They looked at each other and could read the other's concern for Barriss in their eyes. Barriss stood in the crowd, his eyes full of relief and deep sadness for them.
Falcon's voice broke the silence, and his eyes turned to Black Widow. "Besides this, what else is there? Why did you gather so many people?"
Anakin grinned and was about to speak, but Vision gently held his shoulder. Vision said, "Anakin, I believe he would prefer to introduce himself."
Anakin rolled his eyes at this, clearly annoyed by this game.
At this moment, everyone's eyes were focused on them, and the sky above them suddenly became dark, with dark clouds, lightning and thunder. This sudden change made everyone confused and worried. However, Wanda, Quicksilver, War Machine, Falcon and others soon realized something. They widened their eyes, as if they saw an incredible scene. Captain America and Black Widow turned to the newly returned Avengers, as if they had a premonition of an important event that was about to happen.
At the same time, the Jedi Knights also felt the long-lost surge of the Force. They immediately realized that this force had some connection with the Avengers. Their eyes moved back and forth between the sky and their companions, as if looking for some answers.
At this moment, there was a loud sound of thunder and lightning. A figure wearing armor, a red cape, and holding a hammer fell from the sky. He stood in front of everyone with dignity and dominance. Those who recognized him immediately exclaimed -
"Thor!" Captain America and Black Widow exclaimed at the same time, their eyes full of surprise. At that moment, the exclamations of Falcon, War Machine, Scarlet Witch and War Machine sounded at the same time, as if breaking the silent air.
"Dear friends! It's great to see you again!" Thor's voice was full of joy, and he warmly hugged Black Widow and Captain America. Seeing this, the other Avengers quickly gathered around, their faces filled with indescribable excitement.
"Thor?!" Ant-Man's voice was filled with incredible surprise, "I can't believe you are here."
The Wasp said with her usual grace and humility: "It is such an honor to meet you."
The Jedi watched in shock and awe. They felt the Force emanating from the Thunderbolt in a way it had never before felt. The only one who came close to matching that feeling was the Vision.
The more experienced Jedi Masters felt the changes in the Force of the newly returned Avengers in their own unique way. Although they could not explain the specific meaning of this change, Anakin, Obi-Wan, Ahsoka and the three Avengers who accompanied them seemed to have experienced some unusual changes.
Although the Jedi Knight had many topics to discuss with Thor and wanted to understand everything he had been through, at this moment, the other members of the Avengers team couldn't wait to share the joy of reunion with him.
