Saving the world Mama Rhodes style
The battle was still going on all over Wakanda when Thanos arrived on the scene. He intended to go straight for Vision who possessed the last stone he needed but the most particular sight stopped him. He saw an elderly woman moving along the battlefield slowly as she used her cane to walk. Thanos had never seen such an elderly woman walk among the violence of war without fear before. Maybe it was why he allowed the woman to approach him and speak to him. Maybe it was why his forces stopped their attack to see what was happening.
“Elder, why do you come to this battlefield? You are beyond the years of a warrior.”
The woman looked up at Thanos looking no different than any innocent old lady that youngsters should be helping cross streets. Somewhere out in the universe Tony Stark had his Mama Rhodes senses going off and regardless of being an atheist he said a prayer for the poor fool. In the sky War Machine saw the familiar face, cursed, and ran for the hills to avoid the trauma of what was about to go down.
“Oh hello dearie, I’m looking for my son. You might know him, he’s name is Tony Stark.”
Thanos frowned at the little old black lady that couldn’t possibly be the mother to Tony Stark. Nearing the titan Steve Rogers was equally confused but determined to protect the old lady that had no business among the fighting and death.
“I left him on Titan after I spared his life because the stonekeeper gave me the time stone.”
In the distance Rhodey was debating whether he should pity the mad titan or not and in the distance among the dead Tony Stark’s ex Ty was gripping where his nuts had once been remembering the anger of the protective adopted mother of Tony Stark.
“Oh I see.”
Thanos had no time to react as the seemingly weak old woman suddenly became godly in strength and ability and hit the soul right out of his body with her cane. Silence fell over battlefield as Mama Rhodes looked at the body of Thanos who’s soul was forever separated from it where it could do no more harm to her adopted kid. She looked up across the fields of Wakanda with her gaze determined.
“Now where are Captain Rogers and this so called god Thor?”
Super soldiers and gods moved fast but never as fast as they did after seeing Mama Rhodes strike down Thanos and even then it wasn’t nearly fast enough. No one fucked with Mama Rhodes’s family and got away with it.
