On a chilly morning on the first of April all the Avengers came together. They had a smaller meeting before and now this was a grander one. John and others reached early. The most surprising inclusion was Thor. He had been away for a long time now, but he was finally back as all the rebellion had been curbed. John called out to Heimdall for that.
Diana, Flash, Wayne, Steve Rogers, Clint, Oliver and Natasha had all arrived. John was happy to see everyone. A proper gathering for the Avengers. Even though he could have named the whole team as Justice League but he refrained from that as he wanted to honor the name in the marvel universe.
"It's nice to see you all and for the first time all together." John said.
"It's nice to be back together." A voice said from high up. It was Hal. But he didn't come alone. He had brought Bucky too. Surprisingly Tony didn't react at all.
"Nice to see you back, old friend." Barry said. As they were talking another quinjet landed. John knew who had come. After opening the hatch, three women and three men came out.
It was the magical side. The witches and the witchers. But what surprised John was that Fury came with them.
"You found them already? I thought they were hidden." John said.
"I contacted them, as we needed help with many instruments." Geralt said. John had contacted them via his phone which had been delivered by the league. He didn't care to check on the memories. John didn't expect Geralt to ask help from SHIELD.
Everybody had watched and played the game before as John had said that they would come. Yenneffer and Triss looked more beautiful in real life. While Ciri was a blooming beauty and had white hair. Even though she had a scar on her face, it just added to her beauty.
"Did you like my gift?" John asked as they started approaching.
"Yes. This is going to fuel our research for a long time. Vesemir is working on it tirelessly." Triss said. John nodded at it.
"Let's go inside. We have work to do." Wayne said. Everybody entered the main hall which was built for the gathering. Banner was waiting for them inside in his typical white coat.
"This place looks small. There will be a new headquarters soon." John said as he entered.
"New headquarters?" Fury got interested.
"Yes. A huge place. Even SHIELD can move there as it would be better and have proper control over everything." John said.
"Really? I am looking forward to this new place you are talking about." Steve said with curiosity. Steve started talking with Bucky about Oa and Fury being interested joined in the conversation.
Thor was amazed to see so many new people so he got more interested in knowing everybody. Everybody exchanged greetings and got to know each other. Since this was the first meeting for many new people they had to get along. After half an hour of talking and discussing things Fury finally asked everyone to sit down.
"You all know why you are here. The magic side had already been briefed of Hydra. They are cooped up in a fortress in Sokovia. Initial satellite readings tell us that there are many people being holed up in and around the fortress."
"Wayne will be running point on the mission as he is better at it than any of us here." Fury continued. Wayne took over the stage and started talking about the plan.
"... Geralt and all will be provided with better gear so that they can be protected. John and Banner will be on standby as their powers are too massive and it might destroy everything on the path. The Avengers are loved by many people but every country doesn't like us. So we will have to be careful of the damage in the surroundings." Wayne finished dictating the plan by saying that.
"Alright. Let's go." John said. Tony supplied new FOCUS chips to everyone. Umbrella is already building an industry which would specifically make the FOCUS chips. Pepper was already handling the business side of it.
Tony and others all wore their suits. Wayne used the Justice armor this time while Tony just used the normal armor which he had upgraded. Nanotechnology wasn't ready yet so they used the old ways. They didn't fly off to Sokovia like they should have done but Victor opened a boom tube directly.
Everybody walked in and thus they arrived at Sokovia in a second.
"Jarvis keeps an eye on everything. Let's give them hell." Wayne said.
Oliver, Natasha, Clint and Batman were the first force to attack. They were good at stealth so they wanted to surprise the enemy. Wayne knew this first attack wouldn't be hidden for a long time so they needed to take out the surrounding guards as fast as possible.
