==Plot==
We open on a white void.
*Narrator: In the beginning, there was nothing. And in that nothing there only existed two objects: A flaming bird and a white orb. Eventually, the bird flew into the orb, which acted as a womb and, through unknown means, was impregnated by the bird. After trillions of years, the orb exploded, freeing the bird into the universe and many more creations that were birthed inside of the orb. Some of the things birthed into the newly formed universe include celestial beings that live for science, god-like beings from beyond, and the first deities. However, before any of them, there was a single being created by the orb...
A fuzzy, shadowy creature with white eyes is seen.
*Narrator: The being that inspired the appearance of mankind. The being that predates all others. Adam Kadmon... supreme man...
Adam Kadmon's eyes grow brighter and brighter until they engulf the entire page. Once it does, we fade back to Ant-Man's Avengers fighting against Egghead and the Wrecking Crew. Egghead pilots a mech and Ant-Man is nowhere to be seen. Hercules and Wrecker attempt to hit each other but their fists keep clashing together. However, Wrecker manages to get a hit in by headbutting Hercules away. He manages to get back up, standing beside Moon Knight and Wasp.
*Hercules: How is this guy just beat me!? I'm Hercules!
*Wasp: Yeah, well, he's the Wrecker! He's magic!
*Moon Knight: If I knew we'd be dealing with magical enemies I would've brought my magic suit...
*Janet: Your... your what? Doesn't matter, nevermind.
Each member of the Avengers gets a message from Hank in their earpieces.
*Ant-Man: Okay, I can't repeat anything I'm saying so listen carefully! Wasp, Vision, Moon Knight, and Spider-Woman go after the Wrecking Crew!
*Spider-Woman: Got it!
*Ant-Man: She-Hulk and Hercules, you guys take on Egghead and his mech!
*She-Hulk: You got it, little guy!
*Wasp: Where the hell are you right now!?
*Ant-Man: Being chased by tiny robots, can't talk, sorry!
*Wasp: Ugh!
Wasp, Moon Knight, Vision, and Spider-Woman fight against the Wrecking Crew.
*Wasp: He's so demanding!
*Spider-Woman: Of course he is, he's Hank Pym.
*Wasp: I mean... yeah, but he could still be nicer! Not to mention how weird it is that he's the leader in the first place! Who put him in charge? Does nobody realize who he is?! You guys agree, right?
*Moon Knight: Please stop trying to talk to me.
*Vision: I have no opinion one way or the other.
*Wasp: I don't know why I expected anything different from you two...
An enraged Egghead smashes his hand down on the control panel in front of him while speaking to the Wrecking Crew through a communicator.
*Egghead: WHERE'S PYM!?
*Wrecker: We haven't seen him the entire fight! We don't know where he is!
*Egghead: You've gotta be...! I come up with a month-long escape plan, break you four idiots out of jail, and steal a mech from a military base just so I can finally beat Pym and he's nowhere to be seen!?
Ant-Man instantly grows to regular size behind Egghead.
*Ant-Man: Boo.
Egghead spins around and tries to shoot Hank. Hank shrinks back down, dodging the bullet. Egghead looks around the cockpit with his gun, searching for Hank.
*Ant-Man: It's pretty echoey in here. I can bounce my voice off the walls really easily. It must be pretty hard to find out where I am like this, huh?
*Egghead: I'm a 7th level intellect! I'll find you no matter wha--
A very tiny Hank beats up Egghead, ending it by growing back to normal size and pinning him against the mech's window, cracking it.
*Ant-Man: You really think you're that smart, Egghead?
*Egghead: I'm Elihas Starr, Pym! Don't refer to me by derogatory nicknames! And I don't just think I'm smart, I'm quite possibly the--
*Ant-Man: Are you aware this whole thing was a distraction?
*Egghead: ...Excuse me?
The mech starts rumbling as it's revealed Hercules and She-Hulk are lifting it from underneath.
*Hercules: Your strength is quite incredible, She-Hulk!
*She-Hulk: No, that's my cousin. I'm sensational!
Hercules and She-Hulk toss the mech towards the Wrecking Crew. The other Avengers get out of the way as the mech crashes straight into them, pinning the Wrecking Crew to the ground. Egghead kicks the window from inside, smashing it and crawling outside, where he's confronted by the Avengers. Hank grows in front of them, an ant flying around his hand.
*Ant-Man: Thank you, Antoinette. You really came in handy while breaking out of the mech there.
Hank crouches down to Egghead.
*Ant-Man: So, anything you'd like to say, Elihas?
Egghead pulls out a small button and pushes it, teleporting himself and the Wrecking Crew away.
*Wasp: Damn it, he escaped!
*Ant-Man: Vision, scan that teleportation signature.
Vision's eyes glow yellow.
*Vision: Egghead and the Wrecking Crew have teleported to an abandoned Roxxone Oil warehouse on the outskirts of Boston.
*Ant-Man: We'll capture him within hours.
*Spider-Woman: Man, that went way better than I thought it would! If I'm being completely honest, I thought we'd be dead!
*She-Hulk: Yeah, plus Avengers missions usually last more than one issue.
*Wasp: What?
*She-Hulk: Days. I meant they usually last multiple days.
*Wasp: Uh...
*Ant-Man: Let's head back to the mansion for now and lick our wounds. We'll head out after Egghead when we regain our stamina.
A crowd of civilians gathers around the Avengers.
*Wasp: No worries ladies and gentlemen, the criminals have been defeated!
*Crowd: Wasp! Wasp! Wasp!
*Wasp: Oh, actually, Hank Pym here was actually the one who led us.
The crowd stops cheering.
*Wasp: So cheer his name instead.
They remain silent for a bit.
*Crowd: Aven-gers! Aven-gers! Aven-gers!
*Ant-Man: Wow...
Spider-Woman, feeling bad for Hank, whispers something to Hercules.
*Hercules & Spider-Woman: Let's go, Hanky, let's go!
They clap a few times and continue chanting for Hank.
*Ant-Man: Thank you both but also don't call me Hanky.
Sometime later, the group enters Avengers Mansion and walks to the meeting room. Hank pulls out a recorder and speaks into it.
*Ant-Man: This is the audio log of Henry "Hank" Pym, AKA Ant-Man. It is currently Monday the 8th and I have just returned from another successful meeting with my Avengers. It seems the civilians of New York have yet to forgive me for the actions I committed as the supervillain Yellowjacket. Although I can't blame them, it still somewhat hurts to learn that they can't fully accept me yet.
*Hercules: I'm never gonna get used to him talking into a recorder like that...
*Spider-Woman: Well, if it helps him, I guess...
*She-Hulk: I don't see a problem with it. I talk to myself all the time. And so does Moony.
*Moon Knight: Don't nickname me.
*Ant-Man: In spite of the people's objections--
*Wasp:  Uh... Hank?
*Ant-Man: I still look forward to--
*Wasp: Hank?
*Ant-Man: Future missions with my group--
*Vision: Mr. Pym.
*Ant-Man: What?
Hank sees a girl whose body appears to be made of the universe sitting at the meeting hall's table, munching on a sandwich.
*Ant-Man: Um...
*Spider-Woman: Does anybody know what the hell that is?
*Ant-Man: Well, from the looks of it, it's a girl but... I don't think that answers too many questions.
Egghead slams his hand down on a table in his base, enraged after his defeat.
*Egghead: I can't believe Pym managed to defeat me again! That stupid piece of crap won't stop getting in my way! I won't be able to get any of my work done as long as he's constantly on my back! And you four!
He points at the Wrecking Crew.
*Egghead: What on God's green earth am I paying you idiots for!?
*Wrecker: To... wreck?
*Egghead: And what exactly did you wreck...?
*Wrecker: Um...
*Egghead: Nothing! You didn't manage to do any damage to the Avengers!
The Wrecking Crew's eyes widen at something.
*Piledriver: Uh... Mr. Starr?
*Egghead: You blithering idiots couldn't even--
*Thunderball: Mr. Starr, your--
*Egghead: Don't you dare interrupt me! I'm not done yelling at you--
*Wrecker: Egghead, your arm's disappearing.
*Egghead: Don't call me...! What?
Egghead looks at his arm, revealing it's turning completely white.
*Egghead: Agh!
He moves but his arm remains in place.
*Egghead: I... I can't move it! What's happening!?
His legs also start turning white and it slowly grows across his body.
*Egghead: Don't just stand there gawking! HELP ME!!
The white covers his entire body and he stops moving and talking. The Wrecking Crew look at him for a minute before running out of the building. Back with the Avengers, they're gathered in the kitchen, watching as the universe child raids their fridge.
*Spider-Woman: ...She hasn't said a word this entire time...
*She-Hulk: I know, right? You think she'd get at least some important dialogue...
*Moon Knight: I don't trust her...
*Wasp: She looks nine, what could she possibly do to us?
Vision's eyes glow yellow.
*Vision: Scanning complete.
*Ant-Man: What'd you find?
*Vision: Absolutely nothing.
*Ant-Man: Seems about right.
Hank walks over to the girl and places his hand on her shoulder. She turns to him, chewing on a hotdog without a bun.
*Ant-Man: That's... not cooked. You know what? Nevermind. What's your name, little girl?
She shrugs.
*Ant-Man: ...Amnesia?
She nods.
*Wasp: Aw, poor thing...
*Ant-Man: Can you talk?
*Girl: Yes.
*Ant-Man: Wonderful, that'll make things a lot easier. So, tell me, do you know how you got here?
*Girl: I teleported.
*Hercules: Teleported?
*Spider-Woman: Why is that the weirdest thing about this situation to you?
*Ant-Man: Did you come here just to eat or what?
*Girl: I came for the Avengers.
*She-Hulk: That would be us!
*Girl: I came for the other Avengers led by the man in blue but I suppose I can make due.
*She-Hulk: What?! You rude little--
*Ant-Man: Don't upset the galaxy girl. Now, tell me... um... would you mind if we gave you a name? Because calling you "galaxy girl" would get kinda old eventually.
*Girl: Not at all.
*Ant-Man: Alright... hm... how about Stella?
She raises an eyebrow.
*Ant-Man: It means "star".
*Stella: Fitting. I enjoy the sound of it.
*Ant-Man: Alright, Stella. Do you need anything?
*Stella: A bath, clothes, and something to fill my stomach would be nice.
*She-Hulk: Is this whole arc going to be us taking care of a kid?
*Ant-Man: I know she seems odd but she has shown signs of having a child's intelligence. Children respond to situations better when they're comfortable. Now, who wants to help this girl with her bath?
Nobody answers.
*Ant-Man: This isn't my day, is it?
Later, Stella's seen sitting on a bed while eating some macaroni, clothed, and seemingly bathed.
*Ant-Man: Why did I also have to make the food and get the clothes?
*Spider-Woman: You're the leader, right?
Ant-Man walks over to Stella.
*Ant-Man: you ready to talk yet?
*Stella: Mhmm.
*Ant-Man: Why'd you come here?
*Stella: I wanna find out who I am.
*Ant-Man: Well, a good place to start would be to go to the last place you remember being. Where were you before you came here?
Stella gets up and starts walking away. The Avengers follow behind her as she walks on to the roof and simply points towards the sky.
*She-Hulk: ...You gotta be kidding me.
*Hercules: Shouldn't we go after Egghead first?
*Stella: The person you refer to as "Egghead" is dead.
*Wasp: ...What?
*Stella: I sensed him die. His lifeforce was cut out of the universe by an unknown presence. He is no more.
*Spider-Woman: Can you prove it?
*Stella: Do I seem like I'm lying?
*Spider-Woman: ...Fair point.
*Hercules: I mean, I can survive up there but I don't think any of you could. So...
*Ant-Man: Follow me.
They do, Hank taking them to a giant base underneath the mansion with several spaceships inside of it.
*Ant-Man: Every single one of these has shields powerful enough to withstand a planet-destroying meteorite and can block blasts coming from the strongest weapons in the universe. They all also have sixteen guns on them to help defend us, have several pairs of back-up space suits, and have sixteen escape pods that automatically teleport us back to earth the moment we get inside.
The Avengers all look at each other and then look back to Hank.
*Wasp: Well... guess that settles it.
*Spider-Woman: This is gonna be insane!
*Vision: With all due respect, I can't believe that we're actually doing this.
*Moon Knight: I've never been on a journey like this. Should be fun.
*Hercules: This is going to get really weird really fast, I can already tell.
*She-Hulk: Let's get this done!
*Ant-Man: Alright then. The Avengers are going to space!
