The Four Lost in Time
In the chance that the Fantastic Four ever got separated and lost in time, they came up with a plan to save all of them. They were all to go to the Forever Stone, one of the oldest and longest-lasting geological formations in the world, which also remained easily accessible for most of history. They would carve their name and the time they were stuck in on the stone, then place it back where they found it. Inside the stone was a tracker that their suits would lead them to, and a beacon that could call the Time-Sled from a space beyond reality. Unfortunately, this device would only work once, so only the person farthest in the future could rescue everyone. That was Sue, but when she spawned the blazing hellscape that the Earth will eventually become, her tracker didn’t work. She had until her powers failed her to find it, or she died and doomed her family along with her.
Thankfully, Mister Fantastic is always able to think of something when a plan goes awry. When Sue didn’t immediately appear after he carved his name he deduced that either she died or wasn’t able to find the Forever Stone. Given that the first one couldn’t be true and didn’t offer a good solution, he found a way to leave her a message she would see no matter how far into the future she was. He created artificial diamonds and painstakingly buried them miles into the ground to ensure they wouldn’t move, placing them all over the world, all pointing Sue towards the Forever Stone. Knowing how her husband thinks, Sue flew up into the sky and channeled all of her power. With it, Sue managed to transform all of the Earth’s crust invisible at once. Guided by her husband’s labor of love, Sue is able to get to the Forever Stone and go back in time to save everyone, where they reunite to take down Doom once and for all. Of course, before they can do that, we absolutely have to talk about the insane feat that the Invisible Woman just performed.
