AN:- I won't go into exact details cause I've stalled this for a long time and I'll just write this as a 3rd person POV and narrative thing
Need to start the actual plot
Still need to set some things but I'll get there
And let's be honest plot or not
No one's interested in watching some fake pov for too long
And even though I say this is the movie I'll try to skip over some boring stuff like him gaining nicknames or his missions and tell this as a story, well except for the plot changing stuff
And the character may be fake but remember leo made him in his image ....part of it, so some things may be same for Leo
Oh and this chaps is gonna be big cause can't tell 20 years in few words can I....I can but you get the point
Enjoy

~The screen continued playing ~
*3rd PPOV*(3rd person pov)*
The day of his birth, a powerful wave was felt by their Tracker mutant
They thought a powerful mutant awakened his /hers powers
So they immediately left to capture him/her
And they did, just didn't think that it would be a newborn
For them this was a good thing
They didn't have to waste time torturing anyone
The child was a clean slate
Easy to manipulate and make a perfect weapon
But they didn't exactly know what his powers were, and they couldn't exactly cut it open, so they just decided to hand the child to one of their agents to raise him till he was suitable for test
And the time passed day by day
They raised the child with subtle manipulation
Nothing too die-for-cause type just enough to make him apathetic to friends, love, life and death to make him less attached to things and to make killing easier down the road
5 years passed
They started training the child when he reached 3
From gymnastics to swimming and other sports
And at 5 they shifted him to another facility
They tested various things on him cut his body at various places, filled him with drugs to see what reaction they would get, made him sit in a darkroom for hours, take his blood for more tests
And this continued for 3 years till he was 8
Now normally his powers should have awakened fully
The child had minor healing and heightened senses with strength equal to a grown man
But these were not his limits they believed
So in those 3 years they tried various things and increased their ways of experiments
Smalls cuts turned into stabs with fingers cut off and more torture
Instead of drugs they used poison to increase his regeneration limits from the outside and inside
After more research they found his healing capable of regenerating his damaged organs
So they harvested his organs
To clone or create more like him
2 years later
The child was nothing but a empty husk, he had a expressionless face like nothing mattered
He was only 10 but looked like a pale teenager
His powers were limited to high healing and now instead of super strength it changed to Super resistance
It became harder to pierce his skin
Even diamond drills didn't work
So they gave up on that and focused on mental torture
They gave him a pet to raise and they made him watch genocide of various people over the years on field
Killed people in front of him
And finally asked him to kill the dog which he did without hesitation
Thankfully the childhood manipulation was showing its effect
The boy started to enjoy the expression of pain and fear others made before their death
He too participated in the killings
He started to enjoy the feeling of tearing flesh and breaking bones slowly but his strength wasn't enough
As if responding to his wishes, his body started to change
He gained little muscles and became stronger
And when they thought he was ready
They ordered him to kill a couple
And like in any other cliché movie
The couple turned out to be his 'parents'
*The Night of the mission*
"The time has finally come to fulfill your mission, 1 " his 'mother' said with her back to him
He never had a name
They just called him one or Erste
For some odd reason he found this scene familiar, like he had seen this before just like watching a movie
"Go on, finish your mission " his 'father' said to him, pulling him out of that blurry memory
Without hesitation he stabbed them both in the chest with his bare hands and removed their hearts
His 'mother' looked at him proudly while coughing blood
"Finally.... our work is done *cough* shame....we won't be there to see our rise "
"Hail ....Hydra" they both said with their dying breaths
Something clicked in the boy's mind
Like a locked door being opened
Those words always triggered some headaches and unknown memories
The words 'dream' 'winter' 'light' 'dark' 'thing' always repeated themselves again and again and again
He held his head in pain and fell to the floor squirming and turning
It continued for a while before he stopped and got up
"....." he continued to stare in the air before Turing in head to the fallen glass
"Who....is this?" He asked to no one, confused as if seeing his face for the first time
As confused as he was he still made it back 'home' and after reporting his success he went back to his room
Then he started remembering things that happened in the last 10 years but the weird part, is that he's seeing someone standing at a distance, watching him as they experimented on him
And with each year, that figure got closer and closer to him
And today the figure watched him kill his 'parents' and then.....he looked at the figure right in front of him
He couldn't describe the ...thing he was seeing
It looked like a humanoid black mass covered with cracks all over it while missing some parts
And the moment he met his 'eyes'
He watched the same memories again but from a different perspective until he met 'his' gaze and he passed out
And now 6 years later
The pale child was not to be found
He changed... a lot
He grew upto 190cm with tight muscles and had a athletic shape and not too buffed
He had scars on his face and body from the missions he did
For some weird reason his hair went form back to dark red
And the change was just not physical, it was mental too
He went from acting like a blood thirsty maniac to being a 'normal' person for the most of the time
Today he was tasked to escort a person to a facility in middle east
This was a joint operation with another organization called 'Ten Rings'
They weren't exactly on friendly terms but didn't go out killing each other on sight
This was a mandatory mission but he took it anyways cause of the name of the person.
"Tony Stark" he muttered
For some reason this name seemed familiar to him and not because of Stark being famous
He felt as if he knew him as a different person
It was weird but he has gotten used to it
In the last 6 years he had dreams of watching some things called 'anime' or watching random things
It wasn't anything detailed just glimpse or certain parts that were triggered when he hummed some unknown songs
At first he thought it was something he heard when he was child
But it didn't make any sense
The 'him' in the dreams was older and the things around 'him' looked high tech and he hasn't found anything related to his dreams in real world and the songs he hummed didn't exist
So he started believing his 'dreams' may be related to that 'thing' he saw all those years ago
And the mission caught his interest and something inside him was urging him to accept it
So now he was on his way to bring in the target from the US forces, well, wating as others planned an ambush
"Agent Erste the target will be here in 2 minutes and we'll proceed as planned, any questions?" A hooded man asked him
"No" he said while loading a gun
"Good then get ready, Ali tell truck A and C to load the guns and get ready to fire, the target is almost here "
And so the shooting began with the army completely outnumbered
Erste fired his gun and shot few people when he noticed a trigger happy idiot loading a RPG
He suddenly saw a vision where the rocket fell in front of Stark and blasted him, he spaced out for a minute
He shook his head to clear his dizziness and before he could stop the idiot, the said idiot fired it
He watched the events that went exactly as his vision
Stark got hit by shards and bled from his chest
They called a guy named Yinsen to operate and get the shards out
Erste watched the monitor displaying Stark being 'asked' to make a missile in silence
He was confused
He saw dreams yes, the things he saw didn't exist, but how the hell did he know what was gonna happen next ?
He first thought this was his dormant power or something
But the old men back 'home' said he had unlocked them and his already existing powers are still in growth phase, slow but still growing
This was also the reason they stopped trying to test the limits
His limits increased sure, but the progress was too slow, so they just stopped and just assigned him random missions
He was brought back to reality when the door to the security room was opened by the 'leader' of Ten Rings
'Yeah right, like he's the Mandarin...' he thought but paused again at a unfamiliar name that popped out of nowhere but chose to ignore it ....for now
"The mission has already been completed Agent Erste, so why are you here ?" The man Raza asked in somewhat of a fearful tone
"I don't exactly have anything to do and the commander has given me a vacation so here I am watching children play I guess " Erste shrugged and went out to roam around
Red Demon, one of the many nicknames he gained while completing the missions and for a good reason too
Even though he changed and kept his bloodlust in check, he let lose during the missions
Slaughtering his enemies with bare hands, tearing them apart and laughing like a madman covered in blood
Some say his hair got red by the blood of his victims
Raza knew this
Even though he acted nonchalant most of the time, the moment he enters combat he changes into a maniac
He still couldn't forget the smile of Erste's face when he crushed the necks of those soldiers while shooting them on legs just for the fun of it
He was honestly sacred of him snapping because of some random reason and he was right calling them children playing around with guns
No discipline, no hardcore training and no coordination...well it was there but compared to soldiers back 'home' this was a playground at best
*Sigh*"Amateurs" he sighed watching them run around and turned the corner and went to the room where they were 'requesting' Stark to build the missile
He whistled while walking
It was the whistled he heard in his dreams and found quite catchy so it kind of became a habit
(AN:- Kill Bill whistle on YouTube, and it's really catchy)
He entered the room while whistling and watched as the people 'requested' Stark while waterboarding him, he stayed for a while before going out towards his room to sleep
Months passed and nothing big happened, except for some occasional reports and going out to stretch his legs and sometimes watching Stark work
Over last 3 months he kept having repeated dreams of a man in red robotic armor flying around and a hammer in a pit with huge green 'human' jumping around
For the 1st month it didn't make any sense but over time they got clearer over time
He thought this was some sort of future prediction power or something
And his theory was proven right when he saw how Stark made a armor and got out by killing everyone
Erste watched while smiling as Stark took off after blowing everything
"Hehe....hehehe...hahaha..HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!" He laughed like a madman
It's been a while since he last felt this thrill
His powers were down right cheat
At first he could at least enjoy fighting and get hurt, but over time his body adapted to that and he became bullet proff
Sure he can move faster than a bullet and dodge them at a point blank range but where's the fun in that ? So he just stopped dodging....but it got boring, fights that he enjoyed, the thrill of danger, the close encounters with death and avoiding it by a inch, everything lost it's meaning, sure he still enjoys crushing and tearing his enemies apart but that too got boring
So he switched to new things like guns,Swords, sniping and other things but that too got boring after one point
His dreams were the only reason he was still somewhat sane otherwise he might have already destroyed everything for that thrill
After laughing like a madman for a while he turned his face towards a burnt Raza getting out of the rubble
"Tell the commander I'm extending the vacation " and just went in a random direction
2 years later
In these 2 years he went around the globe trying to see if the visions are true and their accuracy
So in 2010 he watched as military attacked a green monster calling itself hulk and miserably failing
Then he watched 2 green monsters fight and everything went according to his visions
Well he wanted to try his strength against them but chose to wait
In 2011 he found the hammer and was about to lift it when black cars started to surround it
He knew it were those pests called SHIELD oh how foolish they were believing they were in control
He later visited the bar where the 'God' almost got into a fight and him being bored just decided to participate in the fight and somehow became friends with the man
Of course that was not all he did
The Commander was getting impatient about his leave and he never really bothered hiding so they couldn't just label him as a rouge and start hunting him and besides they couldn't stop him unless they fired a nuke
Sure they took his blood and organs, but for some odd reason his powers didn't transfer to his clones, it became impossible to extract his powers and the anti-mutant gun didn't work on him
Well, points to them for trying
So to avoid the annoying flies, he just destroyed his 'home'
And they still couldn't stop sending their 'ultimate weapon' ...well weapons ...more practice for him and his powers were also growing steadly so good news
Another probably good news is that he became more social and less bloodthirsty....well not exactly less just got better at hiding it and meet with lot of people, banged some chicks, made money by making songs he heard in his dreams, life was good....
*BOOM!*
A explosion went off near him then he remembered a little detail he kinda missed
He's in New York
And the year is 2012
"Fucking Avengers" he hissed angrily while crushing the alien's head and throwing it at the flying one
He remembered most of the things he watched
Including the movie called 'Avengers', parts of it anyways
He knew something was not right with his mind so the best thing that could work was the gem inside the scepter
He only saw a battle of New York and here he is searching the one called Loki while flying on the alien flying thing?
While flying he saw how Stark, Captain America, Thor and 2 other people got together
"It really is a fucking movie isn't it ?" He chuckled while taking few pics but the fun was cut short as another alien shot his ride making him dive towards the group
*Crash**Boom*
He fell down and made some cracks on the ground with his landing
He then picked a stone and threw it faster than a bullet at the one who shot him
The stone went through it and destroyed the large turtle looking thing too
"Hahahaha take that fuckers!" Erste shouted while flipping them
"Hahaha I knew you weren't a normal mortal friend! " a voice called him from behind before he turned and gave the God of Thunder a bear hug while laughing
"Having fun are we ? How can I sit this one out ?" Erste said while laughing with Thor
"Thor, introductions please?" Cap asked after confirming he was not a enemy
"Yes, this my friend Erste who fought together with me in the mighty battle of the Molly's Bar and we drank till we passed out "
Stark just stayed away as if not knowing Thor
Black Widow aka Natasha Romanoff looked like she was interested in the details
Captain just faceplamed himself while Hawkeye laughed
".....So Erste wanna help us out ?" Nat asked trying not to laugh
"Sure, I always welcome a good fight " Erste laughed with Thor joining him
Same as his vision, Cap gave orders to others and he tasked him and Thor to destroy hostiles as many as possible
The battle went of before he heard a explosion going off somewhere in the sky
He saw a man in golden and green fly towards the Stark building
He immediately went after him for the scepter
When he reached he saw a green giant coming and quickly started recording the iconic moment
After Hulk finished smashing the puny God he found a human giving him thumbs up
As odd as it was, Hulk too gave the guy thumbs up and jumped
Erste quickly searched for the staff and found it
The moment he touched the staff something tried to control him but he shrugged it off
He then broke the cover of the gem and took it
The moment he did his mind became clear and he watched all of 'his' memories
He stayed still for some time before opening his eyes which shined with golden light for few seconds before going back to their original color
"Just as I thought " he said while dropping the staff
"My soul got fucked pretty bad " he said while searching for a transmitter
"Let's solve this issue first "
Erste then called everyone and told them he had a way to close a portal but Stark said there was nuke heading there
And same as the plot he diverted it and Erste closed the portal with his hands while channeling the power of the stone
His original powers were not working at full capacity
Only at 10% as his soul was damaged
But he could still use a Infinity stone
He needed to heal his soul and what better way than to use the soul stone
Now the problem was that he didn't have anything precious so using space stone to get to Vormir plan was out
Waiting till endgame was a option but he didn't think the planet would be ok till then cause he'll just destroy everyone cause he was sure everyone will find out who he is and come after him resulting in many deaths
So that plan was out too
Now he still didn't think 1 stone would be enough as some of his memories are still blurry, he might even need multiple soul stones
And where is the best place to shop for them ?
The TVA
They literally used them as paper weights
The only problem was their tech and making sure to not get caught
He'll survive yes, but with his powers down to 10% it will take too much time to break out
And so he waited for Loki to escape and follow him
He did follow him after giving Stark a heart attack by whistling the tune he played while Stark was getting tortured
As they both landed in desert he suddenly felt a change in surroundings as a yellow door appeared
He immediately backs away from it and hides from the people who came out of it
They captured Loki and left one to set charges to erase the timeline
That was his cue
He quickly rushed to the TVA agent and knocked him out and stole his arm band
It took around 20 mins of fiddling around to figure it out and after setting a disguise he went through the door
Of course the disguise was never gonna work but he did it for fun anyways
He just casually walked towards the office where stones were kept and picked few of them including few power, time and space stones cause why not
"Ummm what are you doing ?" a voice asked giving him a jumpscare
"HEILIGE VERDAMMTE SCHEISSE!!" He screamed almost like a reflex and quickly turned around to find the guy who met Loki in office
(AN:- Translate that you'll get what he said)
"Oh it's you " he patted the guy on his shoulder and took a deep breath to recover from that
"Do I know you ?" Casey asked the weird red haired guy who was rummaging in his desk
"No you don't, I just joined and was searching for some paper weights " Erste said while pocketing the stones
"Oh! I didn't knew they were hiring new people!"
"Well you know how it is, too much paperwork and too many variants are popping up like mushrooms, so it's a all hands on deck situation " Erset sighed and rubbed his temples as if he was having a stressful day
"I know right! Good thing They hired new guys, the workload is too much !" Some other guy from the side cube joined in
"OK guys you keep chatting duty calls, they just caught a new variant and are calling me to process him " Erste made a random excuse to get out before anyone else discovered him
"OK! See you around new guy!" Casey smiled and waved his hand
"Sure, see you next time !" Erste waved back and dissapeared from their view
"Did you know him?" the guy from the neighboring cube asked
"No, he said he was the new guy here for some paper weights" Casey shrugged and got back to work
"Since when did TVA start hiring people? Hmmmmm.....Well not my problem got too much work " the guy had some suspicions but ignored it and went back to work
Erste after the sucessessful Sneak operation was back in his Universe
He looked around and found out he was in space surrounded by some shield, courtesy of space stone
He didn't exactly have a Infinity Gauntlet so how do you use all the stones ?
"Well let's first heal the soul, then we'll deal about the other things " he held the soul stone and started using it's energy to heal
"I knew it " he sighed after letting go of the dust which was the Soul Stone
"Good thing I got backups " he pulled out 8 more from his pockets, good thing he wore pants with 6 big pockets, bless whoever came up with that idea
He held all of them and absorbed them
It took some time but he did it
After healing he felt 'complete' like he just recovered from a fracture and can finally use his arm
"Ahhh that feels good ~" he almost moaned but stopped
"Now then" he looked at all the stones before him
12 space stones and 9 time stones with 6 power stones
He stared for a while before he held them all together and ....
"Itadakimasu~" ....ate them all
He felt a whoom like sound and wave spread from him and felt power like never before
His hair started changing colors from purple to green to blue to red again before stopping at dark red again
"Phew~....that worked " he breathed out a sigh of relief and clenched his fist
*BOOM!!*
A Shockwave of pure energy spread with him at it's center and destroyed few galaxies around
"uhhh.....Tehe?" he bonked himself on his head slightly while tilting it a little
As if on cue 8 Blackholes appeared around him
He looked at them expressionless before folding his hands and waiting
From the backholes came Celestials with Arishem leading them
"Why did you destroy them?" He asked with a deep voice and everyone started giving off pressure
".....Accident " Erste still folding his hands answered while releasing his own pressure
*CRACK!**RIP!*
That clash was enough to tear and break the space around them resulting in more cosmic destruction
Reality almost cracked and crackes started shining white
The Celestials quickly restricted their pressure while Erste did the same
He wanted nothing more than to use his new strength to get used to it
It's like overeating and then taking a walk to digest it
He knows he needs to fight to digest all that energy quicker
"Now that you're done with scare tactics, why are you here ?" He asked
The Celestials didn't know what to do, they just wanted to pressure this 'thing' before them and kill it if possible
But it turned out to be more powerful and dangerous then they thought
He was giving them the same feeling as Knull
They didn't have enough numbers to come out unscathed
So Arishem being in the lead punched towards Erste before telling others to call for backup
Erste watched as the large fist comparable to a fucking planet was heading towards him
As if that wasn't enough Arishem added Cosmic Energy to it
Now if this was before Erste would've just said 'fuck this' and bailed
But now ....it was another story
If his powers were growing at a snails pace before healing his soul, then after healing it, they were growing as fast as a Rocket
And add Infinity stones to the mix ?
It was beyond Light speed
He growing power could only be described as logic breaking
He calmly watched as the fist neared him while bending space around it
Erste reached out his hand and...
*CRACK!*
Space shattered around them as Erste held....no stopped Arishem's fist with a single hand without moving
It looked as if a ant had stopped a grown man in place
"That's it ?" He asked mockingly and took a square stance before pulling his fist back
"My turn" he said and released his fist and smashed Arishem's fist
At first nothing happened but
~TING~
A high frequency sound was heard as if someone rang a bell and cracks started spreading across Arishem's body and his eyes started losing their glow
"NOOOOOO!" Some yellow Celestial cried before rushing at Arishem
Others were too stunned to move but the cry snapped them out of their daze and they started rushing towards Erste
Some fired beams of concentrated Energy while other used blackholes as balls and launched them, while others tried to bend reality around Erste
While this was happening
Other Celestials quickly arrived and watched Arishem crumble to dust
They quickly attacked as well
Erste was glad they fought back
He could feel it
With every punch, energy beam and occasional kicking something was being released
It was like a Cultivator who was breaking a bottle neck that held him back for a long time
He felt more and more comfortable as he fought
But Celestials were not having a good time
8 out of 18 were already dead
Some had holes in them, while others were missing parts of their body
The universe was already fucked beyond repair
6 Infinity Stones could already erase half life or just blow it to Hell
Imagine someone with 36
Sure they won't work cause he didn't have all 6 and he is still in the process of unlocking their full potential but, does it even matter ?
He turned them into pure energy
If he wants, he can just blow the Multiverse or cause irreversible damage to it
So the fight went on as expected
All the Celestials died
Some big body helmet wearing thing also appeared which he recognized as Galactus but was blown to bits by stray energy spread from the clash
And now he was standing in the void watching the Universe crumble into it
He felt someone looking at him from the darkness and looked up
The Watcher nearly got a heart attack as he watched the 'Thing' look at him straight in the eye
He just closed his eyes and sighed when Erste looked somewhere else
"Mitsuketa~" Erste said while smiling creepily while inches away from the Watcher's face separated by thin glass
Before the Watcher could change the view a hand caught his face and threw him to the glass ground
"Let's Talk " he said while siting in front of him in a lotus position
*After 1 hour?* (Time doesn't flow in the space where the Watcher resides )
They just mostly just talked about multiverse and other worlds beyond this one
Erste didn't do anything other than asking questions and drinking tea which he got from opening space in Ancient One's Office and ste-*Ahem*taking it
He did eat around 12 space stones, pretty sure he can do much more than that
The Watcher was honestly scared
He could feel the energy in the being in front of him still growing at a insane pace
He was getting more and more powerful to the levels of Aspects
After a while Erste got up, said his goodbyes before dissapearing
"Thank the God above " The Watcher immediately fell down and lied on the floor
Erste had to find a way back home
Even though he could just rip open space, he didn't have the co-ordinates to it
So he had to find a being who most likely had it and he had a perfect being in mind as she was the easiest to find
Mistress Death or Lady Death
Just had to grab that bald purple simp and kill him
Or he could just find a way to Death Dimension
But it was only accessible to dead
So he grabbed the simp
Killed him and waited....for a while before blasting that universe
If she won't come out, then he'll make others come to him
Just as he was about to erase his 4th Universe Mistress Death appeared
"Now that you've caught my attention, what do you want ?" She asked a little irritated
I mean who would blame her ?
She was just having a nice day, chilling in her realm when suddenly mortal souls appeared out of nowhere flooding the entire passage and her getting a call from Living Tribunal to take care of the mess
"Just need to find the co-ordinated for my original home world/Universe " Erste said not bothered by the threatening tone
"...just that ?" Mistress Death asked dumbfounded
"Just that" he said a little confused
'Is it that easy?' he thought
Mistress Death looked at his face for a while and sighed before pointing a finger at random direction and bringing it down opening a rip in space like separating curtains
"Thank You" he said bowing a little before stopping in front of it
"Now what ?" She asked ready to kick him in
".....Wanna come ?" He asked while pointing at the rip
"Why would I?" She asked little interested but still irritated
"I don't know, you got anything else to do ?" He said while holding his hand out for her
She thought for a while before nodding and taking his hand
And both of them stepped into the portal
*The Movie ends and the screen goes black*
~Present time~
As soon as the Movie ended
Leo Jumped in front of everyone holding Death's hand and shouting
"Honey! I'm Home ~!!" He said to Light as the smile on his face creepily spread from ear to ear
