Epilogue 3-Heroes Don’t Get Any Bigger
“It’s not that I don’t admit it as impossible, it’s just… Oh, so now you want to talk about impossible! What? …Why would I…? …I haven’t the slightest idea to what you’re referring to, and I have much more important things to be doing. You’re even more deluded than I could’ve imagined, Stark.”
Doctor Hank Pym turned off his phone after that remark, not even caring what the billionaire had to say to that. Reaching over, Pym placed his phone on the nearby table, careful to mind the pain in his arm. His eyes shifted across the pictures laid across the table, remaining there for a moment before retreating forward.
Was it possible? He thought back to the call, to everything Stark had told him. Leaning back in his chair, Hank rubbed his chin and delved deeper into the subject.
…Where was he going with this? The kind of technology Stark wanted was damn near impossible. It would be more believable in the realms of science fiction but here, real life? It didn’t seem plausible. Then again, he had already heard of Stark’s so-called adventure in “another world”, a world filled with colorful, talking equines. Apparently he was one of the few who were given the truth.
After their fiasco at the Avengers Facility a few weeks ago, Scott had been getting some calls for a new job. Top secret stuff, but Scott didn’t mind telling Pym all about it. He’d be lying if he hadn’t gotten a few calls himself. Especially today. Word got around, Scott learned some stuff he probably shouldn’t have, and the next thing Pym knew Scott was blabbing his mouth to Hank, his daughter, and Hope.
Scott’s daughter especially liked the part about the talking equines.
The Avengers didn’t seem to mind Scott telling a few family members—thank Christ he didn’t tell those three wombats—and Hank and his daughter Hope. It seemed they had their own mess to deal with, what with the events of Sokovia and the aftermath of that disaster.
Hank’s hands fell down to rest in his lap, his eyes staring at the ceiling. If only he was given the responsibility for creating Ultron...then maybe things would have been a little different. Definitely for the better. But if it meant working with Stark…
Speaking of which, since Scott liked to keep talking, word got to the Avengers about the suit. It all eventually reached Stark in the end one way or another, the one man Pym tried his damnedest to keep the suit away from. It didn’t take long for Stark to put two and two together and finally connect the dots, all leading to Hank Pym connected with the suit.
Soon enough, Pym started getting calls he didn’t want to get, each one from Stark, each one offering a different proposal but ending the same way.
Stark wanted him to create a transdimensional device, one that could allow those to travel to different worlds by command. Since Thor, the God of Thunder that Pym’s heard so much about, is busy in Asgard from now on, they cannot use the Tesseract to travel between the worlds. Either that, or just help in finding the suitable fragments needed to create some sort of gateway. Stark was very thorough with what he was referring to.
He promised him wealth, fame, and of course recognition for being the first person to construct a portal to a whole other alien world. Except Hank had all of those things…minus the latter, so he denied Stark’s requests again and again with the same answer.
It was impossible. And he could still hear Stark’s response to that very statement.
“Wasn’t shrinking a man to the size of an insect impossible?”
Hank stared up at his ceiling, playing with his fingers, lost in thought. He thought towards the alien invasion in New York a few years back and how a portal hung above the city, bringing in creatures from another world. He thought to the events of Sokovia, to the fragments and supplies Stark needed, and finally to those words pestering him again and again. He kept thinking until the clock struck five in the afternoon, the sun dipping down behind the clouds.
Then he stopped thinking…and looked towards his phone. He kept hearing those same words over and over.
He picked it off the table and dialed a number, bringing the phone to his ear and listening to the ring. After about three rings of nothing, he finally heard a disgruntled “hello” on the other end, the voice heavy. Hank ignored it, instead remembering why he called in the first place.
“Scott, I need you to come on over for a few days. There’s something I might want to work on, and it involves two things…”
Scott replied, “Which would be…?”
“You bringing over that suit because we might need to steal a few things…” Hank closed his eyes and stopped breathing. He couldn’t believe he was saying it. “…and ponies.”
“…Makes sense. Can I bring Cassie?”
“Scott, we’re stealing stuff.”
“Right. Stupid question… But still…”
“Scott.”
“Got it.”
“You’re an idiot.”
“Yep.”
“What does my daughter see in you?”
“No clue.”

Well... That was unexpected. So is it over yet? Is there one more cutscene we should wait for?
Pym always said not to trust a Stark.
Oh yes things would have gone swimmingly.

Swimmingly.
Looks like the Ant-man is now involved...
Keep telling yourself that, Hank, you douchebag.
Pym: Scott.
Lang: Yeah?
Pym: You're full of shit.
Lang: Oh yeah.
By the way, love that reference with Hank Pym building Ultron.
I swear if you write Spider-Mans epilogue in the next chapter…
That will make my year.
7495762 I agree! It will be better!
Good old Ant-Man, not wanting to break into places and stealing shit, but does so anyway for good. Seems Stark's got an eye on those two now... Maybe this plan will succeed.
And Pym creating Ultron? That would totally be better! - No one who reads the comics.
Oh, and I hope you're doing better now, JDPrime. Sending good vibes your way!
I can't believe you moved into college. It's not all bad. You meet new people and you don't forget the people you met at home.
Ah, gotta love Scott. I hope college goes well for you!
Next up, Thanos cameo, amiright?
I feel all "antsy" inside just from reading this next epilogue. LOL. :)
7495279 Two more.
7495307 And he was right.
7495388
7497020 It's a lot to adjust to, but I got plenty of family and friends up here.
Thanks!
7497100 I've got a few friends up here, so its getting more enjoyable.
7497144 Thanks! And better look out for the next epilogue, I hear it involves a bunch of a-holes.
7497419 Clever.
7498505 Please tell me there will be Red Skull though?
7498505 I'll be honest, this fanfic already has more epilogues than the actual movie did. From the way you're releasing them, I almost thought you were planning for it to coincide with this story's 1 year anniversary.
Total Spoiler Alert there when quoted "a bunch of A-Holes"
7498536 No Red Skull.
Yeah this isn't science fiction this is real life where aliens invade, talking raccoons exist, and where people can shrink to the size of ants. You know nothing at all like science fiction.
*sees the marvel comic books*
Hahahaha!!!! No it wouldn't. In fact in some ways it would have been worse.
Gotta love how accepting Scott is of this stuff. It's just like "Yeah ok we got ponies now nothing really surprises me anymore."
YESSS! THE MAN SCOTT!
Damnit, man. Why didn’t they tell Luis?! I could totally imagine his rambling...
Luis: “Yo, bro. You gotta hear me out. Scott was talking about this call he got from that big man Tony Stark! An-and Stark was talking ‘bout how he went to this other world with talking ponies ‘n stuff. Crazy voodoo business, right? He was all, ‘yo, man! I just came from this giant war with a bunch of talking colourful ponies ‘n stuff! It was whack!’ And then, you what Stark said next?”
Kurt: “Didn’t you say you were going to buy us vodka?”
Luis: “Oh! You wanna hear a funny story ‘bout vodka? My mama always used to tell us vodka was poison sent by the dead on Día de Muertos!”
Dave: “Luis!”
Luis: “Righ-righ-righ-right. So, Stark told Scott to tell Hope to tell Hank Pym that Stark needed Pym to build this interdimensional thingy to go to the crazy world with the ponies ‘n stuff. In conclusion, we gotta help Scott and Pym steal these do-hickeys to help build that interdimensional thingy to see the crazy ponies ‘n stuff!”
Kurt: “Are ponies cute and cuddly like in story or scary like Baba Yaga?”
Luis: “Oh! After the call, Scott told Hank Pym to tell Hope to tell me NOT to tell anyone that Stark secretly has a massive crush for one of the little ponies over on the other weird world ‘n stuff!
*proceeds to grin and blink in silence*
Whelp... Looks like there may be a means of getting to Equestria without Thor's help. The question is:
What's the worse that could happen? Hopefully nothing too serious.
Nice cameo appearance for Scott and Hank.
