Hey guys. Haven't uploaded in a while so let's get started shall we. I don't own Marvel, Yu-Gi-Oh! Or Percy Jackson and the Olympians.
Looking at the empty cell container where Loki used to be, I don't know what to think right now. I stood just staring, not saying a word. Steve walks in pulling me away from my thoughts. So he followed me huh.
"Was he married?"
Steve doesn't beat around the bush when it comes to other people's personal life, doesn't he. "No. Not that I know of. There was a uh...cellist, I think."
"I'm sorry. He seemed like a good man." I sigh at his words, nothing I can do about it Capsicle.
"Yeah, well, sorry doesn't always bring back people."
I could feel Steve freeze at my words. "Yeah, but we have to move on. Is this the first time you've lost a soldier?"
I close my eyes as flashes of the war began appearing in my mind eye. "This is a whole new level of crazy, sending a super soldier, a PTSD demigod, an amnesiac legacy, the assassin duo, a man with anger as a power, and an alien demigod. If this is the types of soldiers Earth has then we are screwed."
Steve look a little unnerved at how I was acting. I don't care anymore. Judge me all you want, I have stopped giving a- "Look right now we've got to put that aside and get this done. Now Loki needs a power source, if we can put together a list..."
My gaze lands on the blood stained wall. Phil got hurt or possibly died here. An epiphany stroke me. "Loki made it personal." Steve froze, looking at me in confusion from the change of subject. "That's not the point." I snapped my fingers as I moved away, plans already forming in my head. "No, you see that is the point. That's Loki's point. He hit us all right where we live. Why?"
"To tear us apart." It was so simple I over looked it! "He had to conquer his greed, but he knows he has to take us out to win, right? That's what he wants. He wants to beat us and he wants to be seen doing it. He wants an audience." Loki was similar to Zeus in that sense of wanting attention.
"Right, I caught his act at Stuttengard." I smiled in amazement as the words tumbled from me.
" Yeah. That's just a preview, this is opening night. Loki's a full-tilt diva. He wants flowers, he wants parades, he wants a monument built in the skies with his name plastered..." I froze, "Sonofabitch!"
On the outside of Stark Tower, Selvig works around the CMS device that has already been set- upon the rooftop of my tower. Great have to get a mind controlled doctor out of the way in order to get the plan in motion.
"Hey, Steve, why don't you ask Romanoff or Barton if they can fly the Quinjet, I'll meet you in the battlefield." Steve nodded as he walks in full uniform to the duo, I already took flight. Though I wonder lightly where Adrien, Yuugi and Drew are. "Time to go." I hear Drew through the earpiece. "Go where?" Great they're the conversation through the earpiece so that the others will get the memo.
"We'll tell you on the way. Can you fly one of those jets?" Steve said, guessing he found the others. I have a nut job to meet, I can deal with this later, along with Seto Kaiba, who I was currently talking to on the suit.
"You got a suit?" I was pulled out of thought by Steve once more "Then suit up."
My eyes narrowed as I saw Dr. Selvig on my rooftop. "Sir, I took off the arc reactor. The device is already self-sustained." JARVIS informed me as my eye twitched in anger, how dare he disrespect my uncle's legacy by doing this in his last creation.
"Shut it down, Dr. Selvig." Selvig looked up to see me, his eyes glowing an unearthly color of cloud blue. "It's too late! It can't stop now. He wants to show us something! A new universe." Okay. I can work with that. I raised my hands toward the CMS and fire making the energy from the boosters shatter with a deafening CRACK! Selvig falls backwards, I stared at the CMS in disbelieve . . . unharmed. Nothing happened to it.
"The barrier is pure energy. It's unbreachable. The Neptune I is not ready to be deployed." Well fuck, "Skip the spinning rims. We're on the clock." As I land the suit, it starts to go through the gauntlet and unsuit myself. I felt a gaze on me, glancing to the side to see Loki smiling. I ignore him for a bit as I proceed to walk into the penthouse. Loki walks in, holding the scepter. I casually walk down the steps, towards the bar even though I hate drinking because it reminds me of Gabe, I never got rid of it because it was one of my uncle's prides and joys.
Loki smirked as I looked through every bottle on the shelf, arrogance oozing from him. "Please tell me you're going to appeal to my humanity." I snorted, sure, when the dead become living again. "Uh...actually, I'm planning to threaten you."
Loki looked amused, I could tell even though I was still staring at the bottles. "You should have left your armor on for that." Don't need it to kick your ass, I defeated a war god at age 12, you are nothing compared to that.
"Yeah, it's seen a bit of mileage. You've got the blue stick of destiny. Would you like a drink?" Might as well try one, even though I know I will hate it. "Stalling me won't change anything." Bull, stalling has helped in every battle I have had to fight in.
But, it was not like I need to stall right now. "No, no, no! Threatening. No drink? You sure? I'm having one. On second thought maybe I should have the rest come and drink, having trauma dealing with drunks before." I mumble the last parts.
"The CHITAURI are coming, nothing will change that. What have I to fear?"
Oh I don't know, how about death, punishment, prison, a thousand years without your powers, that's what usually works. "How about the Avengers?" Loki looked at me, confused, "It's what we call ourselves, sort of like a team. 'EARTH'S MIGHTIEST HEROES' type of thing."
"Yes, I've met them." Well not all of them in the same place but, your call ram head. "Yeah, takes us a while to get any traction, I'll give you that one. But, let's do a head count here. Your brother, the demi-God; a super soldier, a living legend who kind of lives up to the legend; a demigoddess, who with one word can make or break someone; a game master, who controls darker powers then anyone can imagine; a man with breath-taking anger management issues; a couple of master assassins, and you, big fella, you've managed to piss off every single one of them."
I wonder how he will deal with the three kingdoms though. "That was the plan." I snorted at the reply. "Not a great plan. When they come, and they will, they'll come for you." From underneath the bar table, I pull on the colantotte bracelets, a honing device, I'll need this soon enough.
"I have an army."
"We have a Hulk. And you can take your army and shove it right--" " I thought the beast had wandered off." Buzzkill
"You're missing the point. There's no throne, there is no version of this, where you come out on top. Maybe your army comes and maybe it's too much for us, but it's all on you. Because if we can't protect the Earth, you can be damned well sure we'll avenge it."
Loki started to slowly walk up to me, raising the scepter and chuckling with dark glee, "How will your friends have time for me,when they're so busy fighting you?" Loki's scepter connected with my chest making a wave of purple surround my body.
Nothing. Confused, Loki tires again. Mind won't let him, I should know. NOTHING.
"It should work." Ah yes, confusion is such a beautiful emotion for your enemy to have. It makes things more entertaining.
"Well, performance issues. You know?" I smirked making Loki grab my throat and flung me across the room.
"Well, now I can say I pissed of a god of mischief." I mumbled as I got up. "Jarvis. Anytime now." Loki grabs me by the front of my shirt this time as he spats is words at me with so much venom I can actually start to see why he is portrait as a snake in Norse Mythology.
"You will all fall before me." Um bad call, you don't want the others after you yet Loki. Throwing my put the window, glass shards flying around me, I stared freefalling down the tower. I glanced up to see a sliver POD starting to come near me, the POD laser signals start searching for the colantott bracelets as I expand my wings. The POD begins to transform into the suit of armor around my wings then to the rest of my body. The suit (the wings and the suit really) helped me from becoming a pancake on the concrete, though many people started to point at me as I flew back up toward Loki.
Loki looks up at me, angry. "And there's one other person you pissed off!" I spoke again, in order to control my anger, and I also said it to spite him. "His name was Phil." Loki raises the scepter as I shoot first at Loki, sending him on his ass.
This is going to be fun. I stopped as an Iris Message appeared in front of me.
"Percy," so the Stolls finally call. "We have the Greeks and the Romans but it seems the Egyptians are already on their way. War is about to start."
And with that the Avengers initiative has begun and the War of New York has commence.
