"Calm down Captain. He really isn't a threat to us. He is trapped here forever only to be a guide to those who want to get the soul stone. He can never leave this place nor use the stone." John calmed Steve down who was really angry and was in fighting mode.
"Are you sure about this?" Steve asked as he still didn't let go of his shield.
"Yes. I am perfectly sure. I just wanted to bring you here to see your old friend." John said with a cheeky smile.
"Good joke John. But it's still dangerous for a guy like him to be the guide. He might just use his brain for evil matters." Steve said.
"He can't. This is his destiny." John reassured him.
"I am here for the soul stone." John then said looking at the Red Skull.
"Are you ready to lose a soul for another soul?" Red Skull asked.All this time he didn't try to argue against Steve as he felt there was no need to go through old matters.
"Yes." John said as he took a tiny bit of philosopher's stone in his hand and then went to the cliff. Red Skull looked at the stone on John's hand with squinted eyes. Steve too looked at it.
"So you are going to sacrifice the philosopher's stone for the soul stone. Is that what he means by soul for a soul." Steve asked as he didn't know the whole procedure of getting the soul stone.
"Yes. That's exactly what Red Skull means by that." John said as threw away the stone down the cliff and waited. John really hoped that the stone would be enough for him to get the soul stone.
And luckily after a few seconds, a yellow colored stone flew from under the cliff to John's hands. Red Skull was confused by what just happened but he didn't ask.
"That was convenient." John murmured as he didn't have to sacrifice a living soul close to him to get the soul stone. The philosopher's stone just filled that gap with a bunch of souls inside it.
"So Steve, want to reminisce about the old past with Red Skull." John asked.
"Who wants to talk with this guy? It is good that he is chained here. He deserves this. Let's go back." Steve said as he had a look of disgust on his face when he saw Red Skull. John just shook his head and vanished with Steve.
Sometimes hatred doesn't just go away just because there is nostalgia in it.
John then returned to the Ring with Steve. Now he had all the stones with him and were stored in a very secured place close to the Hall of Justice. John then proceeded to inform GAIA that all the stones had been collected and to inform this to all the Avengers so that it is under protection always. He didn't want any accidents happening to one of the most powerful weapons in the universe.
"This is done. What is your next move?" Steve asked.
"I will have to bring the planet in order. Some people have been eyeing the Avengers and Umbrella for sometime now." John said.
"What will you do about it?" Steve asked as he too had noticed problems popping up everywhere.
"I will see what I can do. Don't worry I won't do anything drastic. Though I would love to bring some people down but that is counter productive. There should always be opposition for a huge organisation or else an organisation will become corrupt with power." John said.
Steve nodded at it as he knew John was right. Democracy works only when there is proper organisation. Steve knew that Avengers had been facing opposition on the grounds that they had been working without any jurisdiction and no oversight.
They didn't know that Avengers always had an oversight with the help of John, Batman, now Clark and even himself. If anything went wrong they would go through it.
"Alright. Go do your thing. Just don't push the limits of Ross." Steve said as he also knew that Ross was behind all of this.
"Yes. I will see to that." John said as he was back at home. But what surprised him were uninvited guests near his door. Guests who he never expected to see ever.
It was Mewtwo and Mew.
One of the most powerful Pokemons in the world.
"What happened? Have the Pokemons been facing problems?"
Mewtwo shook his head and said telepathically
"I have been invited by the Guardians to be one of them and Mew here wants to go and meet the world tree."
"Huh?" John then proceeded to check the memories of the relevant people and was surprised that Ganthet had visited Earth to meet Mewtwo and Mew was being called by Yggdrasil.
"This is interesting. I guess I should let the Pokemons have more freedom in this case. Yes. You both can leave for your respective calling if you both are Ok with it. Before leaving, mention this to Arceus. And good luck on this new adventure." John said as he was genuinely happy that Pokemons are getting genuinely integrated into the world.
"Calm down Captain. He really isn't a threat to us. He is trapped here forever only to be a guide to those who want to get the soul stone. He can never leave this place nor use the stone." John calmed Steve down who was really angry and was in fighting mode.
