Chapter 484: 484. Idiot

"Dammit!!" came the cry of Clint as he proceeded to give a 10$ bill to Tony. Surprisingly, the first reaction when Doctor Strange broke the news was the passing of 10$ bills to the fellow members. John, Tony, Wayne and others received some 10$ bills while Steve, Clark, Clint and many others had to give way.

It was a bet among them!!

On whether or not their world was in danger. Clark and his small team made a bet on the fact that the world that Strange came from was safe and nothing had happened, and Strange had done something terrible and something was coming after him. While John and his team made the bet that his world was in danger and he came to ask for help.

The one hand Strange looked around dumbfounded as the dollar bills were circulating around. He immediately realised what was going on but he just couldn't believe it. Uatu in his dying breath had sent him here saying the heroes were the most powerful and reliable one and that John was his friend.

He had known Uatu for a long time, but he had never heard Uatu calling someone a friend. So after much struggle he reached here, and in the process lost an arm from the attack of that terrifying being in the hope that he would receive some help.

But the reactions of these people disappointed him a lot. And his disappointment was apparent to everyone but all didn't seem to care.

"All jokes aside, what is the problem you are facing? What happened that even Uatu died?" Asgardian Strange asked. (MCU Strange will be referred to Asgardian Strange here till the Strange from that universe is out of the picture)

Strange who had a face full of desperateness and disappointment finally took the courage and said

"Some billion years ago, to stop Entropy (Son of Eternity) in the universe a powerful machine was made. It was named as the Unmaker. But destroying too many blackholes came at cost to stop Entropy. It corrupted him. And then it began attacking galaxies. Unmaking everything known to creation. This came to the attention of the Living Tribunal who stopped the Unmaker. Too powerful to be simply eliminated, the Living Tribunal deactivated the Unmaker and sealed it into the core of the newly developed Earth."

"Our Earth!!"

"12 hours ago we came to know of this. The unmaker had awakened from his sleep. We, in order to stop him, made a team, led by Uatu to stop it from awakening. The Thing, Sue Storm, Vision, Scarlet Witch and I followed him to stop the emergence of him."

"But we failed. All died and Uatu was able to send me before he died. But still I wasn't safe. The unmaker... He... he... is terrifying... The most powerful being we ever faced." Strange said as he was shivering at the end. Tears flowed down his eyes as he said that. His face showed the horror that he had faced while fighting Unmaker.

It was truly a horrible sight for him.

"Look.. I can understand if you don't want to help. Unmaker is too powerful of a being...." before Strange could finish that he was slapped by John.

The slap was strong enough that it echoed the walls of the Hall of Justice. Forget about Strange, even the Avengers were surprised that John slapped him. Nobody thought that he deserved that slap.

Strange surprisingly didn't retaliate, he just looked at John in burning eyes, trying to understand why he had just slapped him.

"Uhh.. John... I don't think he was wrong here." Tony said as he too was confused.

"Not wrong.. These people have forgotten basic physics.. Am I not wrong? For their stupidity we lost Uatu. My friend." John almost screamed when he said that.

"Basic physics? What are you talking about?" Clark asked.

"Strange, let me ask you? What is Unmaker? At its core?" John asked Strange who was every bit as confused as the others around.

"Uhh. It's a machine built to stop Entropy.." Strange replied.

"You see.. Now tell me they aren't idiots." John cut him in his talk and announced it to everybody. Only Tony, Wayne, Flash, Asgardian Strange and Banner had palms on their foreheads.

"Wait? What am I missing? Can anybody explain?" Pietro was confused like the rest.

"No wonder you slapped him. Well he deserves a slap." Asgardian Strange said in a very grave tone.

"What the hell do you all mean? Ignorance of basic physics? What are you referring to?" Strange was shivering in anger when he asked that. He felt insulted but he couldn't voice out as it seemed that these people already had a solution by just listening to his story.

And he wanted the answer.

"An EMP blast, you big fucking idiot!! Don't call yourself Strange from next time. Rather, all the superheroes in your world better not take our names. You and your team are a disgrace." Asgardian Strange shouted as he said that.
