Chương 9: All Heroes assemble
Sean was currently sparing against Steve rogers in hand to hand combat and honestly he was losing before he was flipped over and landed on his back.
"Argh! Fuck! Damn seriously how did you go to a scrawny wimp to this is so quickly?" Sean asked Steve who chuckled before pulling him up.
"Just comes to me naturally." Steve said.
"No shit. So how you handling the 20th century?" Sean asked getting his equipment off.
"Well I'm still adapting to all this." Steve said.
"Have you seen Peggy Carter yet?" Sean asked referring to the first woman he fell in love with making him sigh.
"No not yet." Steve said.
"You know my bioengineers have been working on something that might actually make her young again so you two could have the life you both always wanted with each other." Sean said.
"Really? How?" Steve asked.
"Well its complicated. Ever heard of Vandel Savage?" Sean asked.
"Ive seen the files on him supposed to be some kind of immortal or something." Steve said.
"He thinks himself a god because of that but lately my scientists think we can extract what makes him young and eternal out of him and produce that effect on others that are extremely important to society and reverse the age of those that are her age to back into their mid to late 20's." Sean said.
"Wouldn't that kill him though?" Steve asked.
"Maybe but I don't care. After all the world cant have him live forever and cause a great amount of harm to the world." Sean said.
"Yeah I guess." Steve said.
Meanwhile
"What seems to be the problem doctor Selvig?" Lex asked one of the scientists he threatened on this project.
"The Tesseract is misbehaving." Selvig said.
"Is that supposed to be funny?" Lex asked.
"No, it's not funny at all." Selvig said. "The Tesseract is not only active, she's behaving. Every time we try to shut down the power it turns right back on." Selvig said.
"Sir its doing something again." One of the scientists said as a beam came from the cube before a sphere appeared and the energy used for that went to the ceiling. A man was then seen where the Sphere once was wearing some kind of armor and a staff of some kind.
"Sir put down the spear." Lex said making the man look at his spear before firing some energy blasts at the guards and scientists. One of the guards was an undercover agent from SHIELD Clint Barton AKA Hawkeye. He was about to shot the attacker and report this back to shield when The man grabbed him and looked at him for a second.
"You have heart." The man said placing the tip of his staff where his heart and something was happening to him. While this was going on Lex managed to grab the cube and put it on a briefcase. He was about to get away when.
"Please don't. I still need that." The man said.
"This doesn't have to get any messier I'm sure we can come to an agreement of sorts." Lex said.
"Oh but it does. I've come to far for anything else." The man said as Lex turned around and faced him. "I am Loki, Of Asgard." The Now named Loki said and Selvig looked at him. "And I am burdened with glorious purpose." Loki said.
"Loki, Brother of Thor." Selvig said.
"Earth has no quarrel with your people." Lex said.
"An ant has no quarrel with a boot." Loki said.
"You planing to step on us?" Lex asked with a frown.
"I come with Glad tidings of a world made free." Loki said.
"Free of what?" Lex asked.
"Freedom. Freedom is life's great lie. Once you accept that, in your heart, You will know peace." Loki said as he did the same thing he did to Barton to Selvig.
"You say Peace I think you mean the other thing." Lex said before Barton shot him making him fall down and dropped the case and Loki and his mind controlled pawns took the case and left. If they had stayed a few moments they would have seen Lex get up with a groan and opened his shirt revealing bullet proof armor. He looked up and saw the cosmic energy the cube let out getting out of control and quickly rushed to the top floor where Mercy was with a helicopter and both took off just as the facility blew up.
"What happened?" Mercy asked.
"Fly us to Global Tech I get the feeling things are about to get out of hand." Lex said hating the fact he needed Sean's help but even he knew this was over his head.
Later
"Whats so important about this village?" Sean asked Talbot on a video feed.
"You remember the weapon Hydra had during World war two?" Talbot asked.
"The Cosmic cube? I thought it was lost." Sean said.
"Apparently that was just a cover story. The Real story was that it was hidden away in a small village and only a small few knew the truth. The enter village has been destroyed. I'll give you one guess who's behind it." Talbot said.
"Luthor. How did he find it?" Sean asked before Lois walked in. "Lois nows not a good time." Sean said.
"Yeah and its about to get worse. Lex is here with some important information about an Asgardian named Loki." Lois said.
"Loki? Isn't that supposed to be Thor's brother?" Talbot said remembering that from the report.
"I think so. Let him in." Sean said as Lex and Mercy walked in. "Make it quick Lex I'm very busy right now." Sean said.
"You'll have to clear the rest of your schedule then. A few hours ago the one known as Loki came into one of my facilities and took away an important power source." Lex said making Sean frown.
"You mean the cosmic cube. So you did take it." Talbot said.
"I didn't take it. A business partner came to me and offered me a deal on making a more efficient Energy source much more powerful then your energon." Lex said making Sean snort. "The Cosmic cube started acting up and he appeared out of nowhere and killed a few of my bodyguards and somehow brainwashed some of them." Lex said.
"Would this be one of them?" Sean asked showing a picture of Barton.
"How did you...You had your forces in my facility to spy on me didn't you?" Lex said not amused making Sean smirk.
"Like the world can afford to have you left unchecked Lex especially after the whole Brainiac incident." Sean said.
"What happened to Barton and the others under Loki's control?" Talbot asked.
"They left after your spy shot me in the chest. Thankfully I was wearing body armor." Lex said.
"Loki cant be working alone since even he doesn't have the skills to pull this all off so someone has to be helping him." Sean said.
"Whats our first move then?" Talbot asked.
Later
In an abandoned building a woman in a black dress with Red hair white Skin and Green eyes was secretly getting information from a Russian man when suddenly one of the guards phone went off.
"Da? Its for her." The Guard said to the Russian leader who picks up the phone.
"You listen carefully." The Russian tried to say.
"You're at 1-14 Silensky Plaza, 3rd floor. I have and F-22 exactly eight miles out. Put the woman on the phone, Or I will blow up the block before you can make the lobby." Sean said on the other line. The Russian stuttered for a second before putting the phone in her Ear. The woman in question was Known as Natasha AKA the Black Widow. "You need to come in." Sean said.
"Are you kidding honey I'm working here." Natasha said.
"This takes precedence." Sean said.
"I'm in the middle of an interrogation. This moron is giving me everything." Natasha said. "Look you can't pull me out of this right now." Natasha said.
"Natasha, Barton's been compromised." Sean said making her eyes narrow.
"Hold that thought." Natasha said as she freed herself and took down her targets while Sean waited for her to get done. She picked up the phone again. "Where is Barton now?" Natasha asked.
"Unclear buts we're assuming he's alive due to his skills. Head to the Global Tech facility in India and Pick up Banner I'm heading to New York to pick up Stark while Frank gets Rogers." Sean said as he ended the call.
Meanwhile
Under water near New York a man in an Armored suit was cutting through a power lines metal case before he got through and placed a device on it which started glowing green and the man jumped up and flew out of the water. This was Tony Stark AKA Iron Man. He soon flew back to New York.
"Good to go on this end. The rest is up to you." Tony said to his assisted and girlfriend Pepper Pots.
"You disconnected the Transmissions lines? Are we off the grid?" Pepper asked.
"Stark Towers is about to become a beacon of self-sustaining clean energy." Tony said.
"Well plus with the help of a few needed parts from you business partner." Pepper said making him chuckle.
"True now light her up." Tony said and his tower soon powered up.
"How does it look?" Pepper asked and he was about to answer when.
"It looks like Tony is showing off as usual." Sean said on the line.
"How did...Right keep forgetting. Where are you?" Tony asked.
"Heading up to the top floor we have a problem." Sean said.
"Great." Tony said as he landed on a platform and walked inside while robotic arms took off his armor. Sean soon came in through the elevator.
"Sorry Tony but this is a major problem." Sean said as he showed a file of the cosmic cube on the screens.
"The Cosmic cube? Whats that?" Pepper asked.
"It's basically a source of unlimited cosmic energy. My dad always talked about this saying it could be the key to unlimited energy but the government shut that down and hid it away somewhere." Tony said.
"Till Luthor found it." Sean said.
"Of course. So I'm going to guess you want to steel it from him." Tony said.
"Not exactly someone already took it. Loki, Thor's brother." Sean said.
"Thor you mean the guy with the hammer?" Tony asked.
"Cant reach him so we cant get his help. Need you to study the files on this thing that Luthor gave us." Sean said.
"Wait he gave you the files?" Tony asked.
"He's stupid but not blind. Well not completely anyway. He wanted to use the cube to out do our energon project since ours proved to be more effective." Sean said.
"No surprise there." Tony said.
Meanwhile
Steve was in one of the work out rooms of Global Tech punching the bags when he punched it so hard it flew off the chain making him sigh before he put another one on.
"Trouble sleeping." Frank asked in his gear.
"Been sleeping for 70 years I've pretty much had my fill of it." Steve said.
"I would figure you have been out celebrating enjoying the new world." Frank said.
"When I went under the world was at war I wake up telling me we won but didn't say what we lost." Steve said.
"Some Mistakes have been made along the way some very recently and one you should be familiar with." Frank said handing him the file on the cosmic cube.
"Red Skulls secret weapon." Steve said.
"The allies found that when they were looking for you. Howard Stark fished that out. He believed this thing could end the worlds energy source problems. The US though thought it was better to hide it away seeing it as to dangerous and only a small few knew where it was." Frank said.
"Till someone found it again I'm guessing." Steve said.
"Yeah Lex did and now someone took it from him. Calls himself Loki he's not exactly from here. Sean is getting the League and a few others to look for it that includes us and the other Defenders." Frank said.
"Should have just kept it in the ocean." Steve said.
Later
Sean and the League including Batman after Superman managed to convince him of the threat were on an air carrier.
"What kind of carrier is this?" Superman asked since something about it felt off.
"A Global tech one. Just waiting for the others to get here." Sean said.
"I assume you mean the Defenders." Batman said.
"Not to fight you Bats even though I wouldn't mind seeing you get your face kicked in for what you pulled using my sisters." Sean said making him sigh.
"I don't blame you." Batman said.
"Just be lucky your not in chains." Talbot said just as the last quinjet arrived and Steve Frank Banner Natasha Luke Cage Jessica Jones Dare Devil Elektra and Iron Fist arrived. "Wheres Stark at?" Talbot asked.
"Reading the files on the Cube lets go." Sean said as the crew strapped down the jets and other air craft.
"Uh whats going...On?" Flash said before they saw giant air turbines appear out of the water and started spinning.
"Wow just wow." Supergirl said in awe.
"Trillions of dollars at our disposal you think we cant do anything unbelievable these days? Welcome to the helicarrier one of the best things SHIELD has." Sean said as they went inside just as they fully took off.
"Next time warn us ahead of time." Powergirl said.
"And ruin the surprise I think not." Sean said making her roll her eyes in amusement. Once they got inside a cloaking device activated.
"Commander." Fury said shaking Sean's hand.
"Nice to see you again Fury. So whats our status?" Sean asked.
"Still running facial recognition if Loki's face gets caught on any live camera feed we'll know where he is in seconds." A woman said. She had tanned skin brown hair and brown eyes This is Maria Hill. (Her Earths mightiest heroes appearance)
"Banner head to the labs everything you'll need to track the cube is in there." Sean said.
"Alright." Banner said heading to the lab with Batman and J'ohn Jones.
"The Rest of you be ready to be deployed the second we hear anything." Fury said.
Hours later
"Did you have this organization planed before the League or after?" Diana asked.
"Little bit of both. I had been making plans and weapons for SHIELD before the League but after the invasion I decided to speed things up. After the invasion It showed we need to have more heroes working together rather then act alone." Sean said
"Commander we've got a match to Loki with a 67% match wait scratch that 79%." An agent said.
"He doesn't look like he's hiding." Batman said.
"Yeah no shit something is up but we cant let him get away. Steve you Frank Natasha and Luke are with me in the Quinjet." Sean said.
"Your actually going to fight?" Diana asked.
"Don't have a choice not with something this powerful out there." Sean said.
"What about the rest of us?" Superman asked.
"You and the others in the league stay here for now since this might end up being a trap. Besides sending to many heroes is a little over kill." Sean said getting in his Spartan Armor.
Later at Stuttgart Germany
Loki had just killed one of the people inside a facility to get an eye scan to a vault in said facility. Soon he had a large group of people outside cornered.
"Kneel before me." Loki said as the people started screaming making him angry no one was listening. "I said KNEEL!" Loki yelled and the people soon did just that out of fear making him smirk in satisfaction. "Is not this simpler? Is this not your natural state? It's the unspoken truth of humanity, that you trace subjugation. The Bright lure of freedom diminishes your life's joy in a mad scramble for power, for identity. You were made to be ruled. In the end, you will always kneel." Loki said before one elderly old man stood up.
"Not to men like you." The old man said.
"There are no men like me." Loki said.
"There are always men like you." The Old man said.
"Look to your elder people." Loki said pointing his scepter at the old man. "Let him be an example." Loki said firing a blast of energy at him and out of Nowhere Captain America jumped down and bounced the attack right back at him.
"You know the last time I was in Germany and saw a man standing above everybody else, we ended up disagreeing." Captain America said.
"The Soldier." Loki said before laughing as he stood up. "The man out of time." Loki said.
"I'm not the one who's out of time." Captain America said as the quinjet appeared aiming at him.
"Loki, drop the weapon and stand down." Natasha said on the PA before Loki fired a blast at him.
"Whoa!" Sean said as they dodged. "Luthor never said he could do that!" Sean yelled annoyed while Captain America went up against Loki and wasn't doing so good.
"Ah Fuck lets go." Frank said as he Sean and Luke were about to jump down and help when.
"Hey kid miss me?" Tony said on the comms before he uploaded ACDC music as he flew down and blasted Loki.
"Show off." Frank said.
"Make your move, Reindeer games." Tony said and Loki soon had his weapon vanish. "Good move." Tony said.
"Tony what are you doing here?" Sean asked.
"I got done on the files you gave me." Tony said.
"I was hoping it would take longer." Frank said.
"I heard that." Tony said annoyed.
Later
"He saying anything?" Talbot asked on the comms.
"Not a fucking thing Talbot." Sean said.
"Well get him back to the carrier we need to find that cube and fast. Lex being here has everyone on edge." Talbot said before ending the transmission.
"I would rather put a bullet in both their heads." Frank said.
"Same here." Luke said.
"I prefer to humiliate Lex rather then kill him since whenever he loses its much more satisfying." Sean said.
"On that I agree he's always been a stuck up snob." Tony said.
"Uh weren't you the same before that thing was placed in your chest?" Luke said amused making him roll his eyes. Sean noticed Steve looked uneasy.
"Something wrong Steve?" Sean asked.
"This was to easy. Guy packs a punch and he just gave up without so much as a fight when Stark got there." Steve said.
"Probably wasn't prepared for both of you or he's planing something. Either way we have a job to do." Sean said before lightning appeared out of nowhere.
"Where the hell did this come from?" Frank asked.
"Don't look at me I'm just as surprised." Natasha said before something landed on the top of the Quinjet.
"Uh I have a pretty good idea who that is." Sean said as he opened the back door and just like he suspected Thor of Asgard appeared. "Thor I presume?" Sean asked.
"Correct I need to speak with Loki." Thor said.
"You can question him once we get back to the carrier for now just wait a while we're almost there." Sean said. Thor thought on this for a minute before agreeing.
Later
Loki was placed in a containment cell of some kind.
"Let me make this clear. You try anything I don't like or scratch that glass." Sean said pressing a button and the doors underneath the cell opened. "You go falling to your fucking death get how this works?" Sean said closing the door. "Ant boot." Sean said making Loki Chuckle in amusement.
"It's an impressive cage. Not built, I think, for me." Loki said.
"No its not. Its for something more dangerous then you'll ever be in a thousand lifetimes." Sean said.
"Oh I've heard. The mindless beast." Loki said.
"Mindless? No. A beast yes he is when he's pissed off." Sean said.
"How desperate are you to call on such lost creatures?" Loki asked.
"Desperate? I'm not the one who's desperate that would be you. Your desperate for gaining power no matter what the cost may be. Power that you might get for a short amount of time but the likes of you will never fully control that kind of power. Unlike your brother and those who helped him in New Mexico you are worthless." Sean said making Loki frown before Sean walked away.
"Well that was interesting." Banner said.
"Loki is going to drag this out. So, Thor, Whats his play?" Steve asked.
"He has an army called the Chitauri. They're not of Asgard, nor any world known. He means to lead them against your people. They will win him the Earth, in return, I suspect, for the Tesseract." Thor said.
"My questing is who gave him this army. He's not skilled enough to plan this all out on his own." Batman said.
"Of that I do not know." Thor said.
"If he's building another portal it would explain why he needs Erik Selvig." Banner said.
"Selvig?" Thor said.
"He's an astrophysicist." Banner said.
"He's a friend." Thor said.
"Loki has him under some damn spell along with one of my best agents. At times like this I hate magic." Sean said.
"I want to know why Loki let us take him. He's not leading an army from here." Steve said.
"You think he's planing something?" J'ohn asked.
"Obviously." Sean said.
"I don't think we should be focusing on Loki that guy's brain is a bag full of cats. You could smell crazy on him." Banner said.
"Have care how you speak. Loki is beyond Reason, but he is of Asgard. And he is my brother." Thor said.
"He killed 80 people in two days." Natasha said.
"Forget about Loki for now he's not a threat while he's in there." Sean said.
"I think its about the mechanics. Barton stole Iridium while Loki was fighting Cap and Stark. What do they need the Iridium for?" Banner said.
"It's a stabilizing agent." Tony said walking in. "It means the portal wont collapse on itself like it did at Lex's facility though he deserved that." Tony said making Lex frown. "Also, it means the portal can open as wide and stay open as long, as Loki wants." Tony said heading to the screens. "The Rest of the raw materials Agent Barton can get his hands on pretty easily. The only major component he still needs is a power source of high-energy density." Tony said before secretly putting a small device on the computer without anyone noticing. "Something to kick-start the cube." Tony said.
"Does Loki need any particular kind of power source?" Steve asked.
"He would have to heat the cube to 120-million Kelvin just to break through the coulomb barrier." Banner said.
"Unless Selvig has figured out how to stabilize the quantum tunneling effect." Tony said.
"If thats case any power source would do especially energon. Banner you Stark Bats and J'ohn head down to the lab and scan that scepter of his it might give us some clues as to how to track the cube." Sean said.
Later
"Please tell me we're close to finding that thing?" Sean asked as he and Talbot walked in.
"Scanned the staff just like you said so now we can focus on finding the cube." Tony said.
"But somethings bothering you isn't it?" Sean said.
"And your not? Why is Lex working with the Tesseract why not show it off during the demonstration of a new energy source a while ago?" Tony asked.
"You think he's hiding something?" Talbot asked.
"Wouldn't surprise me. We know now that he threatened Selvig onto the project. The ones responsible for the destruction of the village were found dead in demolished building two days ago. I want to know how he found the location of the cube. More importantly I want to know what his real plans are." Sean said.
"Well we'll find out in a few hours once Jarvis hacks into his systems." Tony said.
"What?" Banner said.
"Sorry but I don't trust Lex even before this got placed inside me. I put a small device in the system and its secretly hacking his systems." Tony said.
"You should have told us about that." Sean said.
"Didn't want to take chance of him eavesdropping in the room." Tony said as they left.
"You think he's right about Lex hiding something?" Talbot asked
"Well he has a point. Lex is known for always exploiting opportunities and with something like this he would in a heartbeat." Sean said.
Later
"What is going on? How much longer is this going to take?" Lex asked.
"I was about to ask you the same thing." Tony said.
"Your supposed to be finding the cube and your all wasting time." Lex said as Sean and the defenders and the rest of the league walked in.
"We are. The Model's locked and Global Tech is searching for the signature now. Once its located we'll have the location within half a mile." Batman said.
"Yeah then Global tech gets the cube since you cant be trusted with it. What is Phase two?" Tony asked making Lex's eyes widen slightly before Steve came in and slammed a weapon down on the table that was from Hydra during WW2 Thats was in locked containers that Luthor brought.
"Phase 2 is for Lex to make weapons." Steve said.
"Now come now Captain Rogers I only gathered evidence from during that time it doesn't mean that..." Lex tried to say.
"I'm sorry baldy." Tony said as the screens showed weapons using the Cube designed from LexCorp. "What were you lying about?" Tony said.
"I feel like I'm talking to the Remake of the Red Skull here." Steve said since Lex was just like him.
"The hell were you thinking making weapons like this? More importantly why?" Sean said in anger just as the Rider walked in.
"Because of them." Lex said pointing to Superman and Thor.
"Us?" Thor said confused.
"I don't need to remind everyone here about when Superman invaded the earth a few years ago or the small grudge match between him and Loki that nearly leveled a small town." Lex said.
"No one has forgotten anything you fool. But using the cosmic cube signals other worlds and realms that Earth is ready for a higher form of war." The Ghost Rider said.
"The Rider is correct your work with the Tesseract is what Drew Loki to it, And his allies. It is a signal to all the realms that the Earth is ready for a higher form of war." Thor said.
"Define higher exactly." Batman asked.
"I don't think we need to know. That thing should never have been found again. The planet has seen first hand what that thing is capable of and the price for that kind of power. The UN has already sent the amount of dead bodies found in the village you ordered destroyed just to find that thing." Sean said making Lex frown.
"I haven't the slightest idea what your talking about." Lex said before Sean punched him in the face.
"Fuck you. Over at least 500 people have been confirmed dead because of you wanting to find that thing." Sean said making Lex glare but said nothing.
"Just because I was trying to harness the power from the cube does not mean I was the one who killed that village and since you have no witnesses you cant prove it." Lex said.
"See my point when I tell you people like him are better off dead then alive?" Sean said to Superman who nods slightly as did Batman since this was something way over the line.
"Unless you have undeniable prof that I did this your wasting your time." Lex said. "Besides why shouldn't the world have this power? The Red Skull was right about one thing power like that shouldn't be kept away when it could be used." Lex said.
"Why you mother..." Frank tried to say when out of nowhere an explosion occurred at one of the turbines scattering everyone in the lab all over the place.
"Put on the suit." Steve said to Stark.
"Yup." Tony said as he helped him up.
"Ok what just happened?" Sean asked as Diana got some Debris off him. "Thanks. Fury what the hell just happened?" Sean asked on the comms.
"Its Barton he tracked the carrier and took out Turbine 3 we need a team to get out there and fix it." Fury said.
"Stark get out there and fix the Turbine." Sean said.
"Yeah I'm on it." Tony said getting in his iron man suit.
"Where is everybody else?" Sean asked.
"We're scattered around the place. I don't see Lex anywhere." Frank said.
"Forget about him focus on anyone not from SHIELD or Global tech on the carrier. Take them out." Sean said.
"Copy that." Frank said killing two intruders.
"Keep and Eye on Loki I don't want him getting out." Sean said as he and Diana ran off.
Tony and Steve managed to get to the damaged Turbine along with Lantern Batman and Superman.
"Oh boy this isn't good." Tony said.
"How bad is it?" Lantern asked.
"Uh Ok I got to get this superconducting coolant system back online before I can access the rotors work on dislodging the debris." Tony said about to head in. "Steve I need you to get to that engine control panel and tell me which relays are in overload position." Tony said. Steve and Batman headed over to where Steve needed to go and opened the control panel. "Hows it look?" Tony said.
"It seems to run on some form of electricity." Steve said making Tony snort.
"I can handle this." Batman said accessing the panel. "Keep me covered till I have this fixed." Batman said.
"Right." Steve said.
"Does anyone have eyes on Banner?" Sean asked on the comms.
"I'm alright but Natasha is stuck." Banner said trying to get some debris off her.
"Luke head down to them and help them out." Sean said.
"Little busy here." Luke said as he and Frank took down some more intruders.
"I can get to them." SuperGirl said.
"Hurry up I'm starting to lose the feeling in my leg." Natasha said.
"Alright lets just." Sean tried to say before he was attacked by Barton. "Barton snap out of it!" Sean asked attacking him in hand to hand combat.
"Sean where are you?" Maria asked.
"Little busy here!" Sean said still fighting against Barton before he smashed his head into the wall making him groan in pain before the light in his eyes vanished.
"Sean?" Barton said before Sean knocked him out.
"Sorry Barton." Sean said picking him up.
"What happened?" DareDevil said as he and Elektra dropped down.
"Never mind that. Elektra get him to the med bay. Red your with me." Sean said as Elektra took Barton and ran off.
"Where we going?" DareDevil asked.
"To secure Loki." Sean said.
Tony soon managed to get to the turbines where he saw the Rider cutting throw the lodged parts.
"How'd you get here so quick?" Tony asked.
"Never mind that now. Get the Turbines started again before any more of the Turbines shut down and we start falling." The Rider said.
"The Relays are intact." Batman said.
"Whats our next move." Steve said.
"Even with the Rotters cleared this thing wont start up again without a jump." Tony said.
"I can handle that." Superman said about to do just that.
"Hold it. You do that you'll get shredded." Sean said on the comms.
"We can stop that from here once it gets up to speed so he can get out." Batman said.
"Alright then do it." Sean said as he and Daredevil got to the detention area and found Loki was gone along with the cell. "Oh come on." Sean said before seeing a few dead shield agents. "Ok now this makes it personal." Sean said in anger.
"Calm down. He's gone both him and Lex are boarding a Quinjet." DareDevil said using his enhanced abilities.
"Mother fucker." Sean said annoyed.
A couple hours later
"Thor was in the cell when Loki tricked him in thinking he just got out. Lex was taken by Loki for some reason so he didn't leave willingly." Fury said.
"Do we at least know where the Cube is?" Hawkgirl asked.
"No and it will take to long to fix everything in the lab." Maria said just as Thor walked in.
"You alright?" Sean asked.
"I will be once we capture Loki." Thor said.
"I prefer it if he was killed." A male southern accent voice said as a few turned around and saw a man in his mid 50,' in dark brown pants brown shoes and a brown trench coat.
"Wait a second are you?" Flash asked.
"The Ghost Rider you've known the longest. Names Carter Slade." Carter said.
"I thought someone of your status would be..." Batman tried to say.
"Younger?" Carter said making Batman nod. "Most would but then again looks can be deceiving since you nearly had me killed when we last fought." Carter said making most glare at Batman.
"I couldn't take chance of you deciding to kill innocent civilians." Batman said.
"You still don't get it do you? Me and all the other Riders are here because God sent the Rider Spirits to cleanse the world of evil and Darkness since you and fly boy wont do it out of fear of constantly killing. You nearly jeopardized everything out of fear us doing things the right way." Carter said making Batman frown.
"Give it up Carter he wont listen." A male voice said and they saw a man of Mexican American nationality wearing the same get up as the other Rider Batman encountered.
"Robbie." Sean said shaking his hand.
"So your the other Rider?" Hawkgirl asked.
"Yeah names Robbie Rayes." Robbie said.
"I had the to get the other Riders that were close enough to help." Sean said.
Later
Tony was looking over the cell area where Loki was kept.
"Did you know these men?" Batman asked.
"Some of them they were Global techs private security before being reassigned to SHIELD." Tony said. "Knowing Sean he's going to be sending a large amount of money to the families of the dead agents here." Tony said.
"And you?" Batman asked.
"I'm not the best when it comes to understanding people I learned that the hard way when my old business partner tried to kill me. But this was personal since Loki had no right to..." Tony tried to say but stopped when he thought of something. "He made it personal." Tony said.
"Thats not the point." Batman said.
"That is the point. That's Loki's point. He hit us all right where we live. Why?" Tony said.
"To take us out before we could stop him." Batman said.
"Yeah, divide and conquer is great but he knows he has to take us out to win, right? Thats what he wants. He wants to beat us, he wants to be seen doing it. He wants an audience." Tony said.
"We already caught his act in Stuttgart." Batman said.
"Yeah, that was just previews. This is opening night. And Loki, he's a full-tilt diva, right? He wants flowers, he wants Parades. He wants a monument built to the skies with his name plastered..." Tony said but stopped when it hit him.
"Figured it out?" Sean asked walking in.
"Son of a bitch." Tony said.
"I'm going to assume he's at your new tower in New York right?" Sean said.
"Yup." Tony said.
"Alright get the others and whatever you need." Sean said.
"What about you?" Batman asked.
"I've got something special in mind." Sean said.
Soon members of the Justice League the Defenders and the now formed Avengers were getting everything they needed to fight Loki and his alien army.
"Wheres your armor?" Diana asked.
"Don't need it. I've got something special to use." Sean said putting a bag over his shoulder. He was also Dressed in Black Leather Jeans black combat boots. Black shirt with a skull in the center and a black Leather Jacket with three spikes on each shoulder and spiked gloves.
Later
Tony was already at Stark tower and tried to get Solvig to shut down the device but wouldn't since he was still under Loki's control forcing him to fire at the device but it bounced back and threw Solvig into a wall knocking him out.
"The Barrier is pure energy its untouchable." Jarvis said.
"Yeah I got that. Plan B." Tony said.
"Sir, the Mark 7 is not ready for deployment." Jarvis said.
"Then skip the Spinning rims. We're on the clock." Tony said as he landed on the landed pad for his suit and walked inside while his armor was being taken off.
"Please tell me you're going to appeal to my humanity." Loki said.
"Actually I'm planing to threaten you." Tony said.
"You should have left your amor on for that." Loki said.
"Yeah. By the way wheres Luthor?" Tony asked.
"As soon as we landed he fled like a coward like all your people." Loki said. (He'd run from anything to save his own skin)
"He's a coward but not the rest of the world. Like a drink?" Tony asked.
"Stalling me wont change anything." Loki said.
"No, no. Threatening." Tony said while secretly putting on a device in his wrist.
"The Chitauri are coming. Nothing will change that. What have I to fear?" Loki asked.
"The Justice League the Defenders and the newly formed Avengers. Its what me Cap Thor Banner Natasha and Barton call ourselves now. All Sean's Idea I might add. Earths Mightiest heroes in the newest group. And you have pissed off each group." Tony said.
"That was the plan." Loki said smugly.
"Not a great plan. When they come and they will they'll come for you." Tony said.
"I have an army." Loki said.
"We have a Hulk and two Ghost Riders." Tony said. "Your missing the point theres no throne. There is no version of this where you come out on top. Maybe your army comes and maybe its to much for us, but its all on you. Because if we cant protect the Earth, you can be damn well sure we'll avenge it." Tony said as Loki approached him.
"How will your friends have time for me when they are so busy fighting you?" Loki said placing his scepter on his chest but all he did was his the mini Arc Reactor in his chest doing nothing. "This usually works." Loki said.
"Well, Performance issues, Its not uncommon." Tony said before Loki grabbed him by the neck and threw him to the floor. "Jarvis anytime now." Tony said as Loki grabbed him again.
"You will all fall before me." Loki said.
"Deploy!" Tony yelled as he was thrown out the glass. Just as he was a new iron man suit came after him and tracked onto the device on his hand before attaching himself in the suit and he flew right back up before he hit the ground. Loki looked outside were Tony was flying again unharmed. "Oh and you also pissed off the families of the agents you killed." Tony said firing a blast of his repulsers at him.
Just as he did that the machine activated the portal and the alien race known as the Chitauri came through in large numbers.
"Right Army." Tony said flying up to stop them.
A few minutes away The League the defenders and the avengers saw the portal.
"Oh shit this isn't good." Sean said.
"Tony whats going on?" Steve said on the comms.
"Little busy right now." Tony said taking down some of the Chitauri.
Loki walking out of the tower when Tony landed earlier in his full armor watched the destruction occur with a satisfied smirk on his face. However Thor soon landed away from him.
"Loki Turn off the Tesseract or I'll destroy it." Thor said.
"You cant. There is no stopping it. There is only the war." Loki said.
"So be it." Thor said as they charged at each other.
"My god there everywhere." Sean said.
"How do we stop it?" PowerGirl asked.
"I have no idea." Sean said as they neared the tower where Loki and Thor were fighting.
"Nat." Barton said.
"Yeah I see him." Natasha said before Loki shot them down.
"Oh for fucks sakes! That scepter is really starting to piss me off!" Sean said as the Quinjet crashed.
"Is everyone all right?" Superman asked on the Comms.
"Peachy." Frank said kicking the doors open. "We're all ok." Frank said as he got a bag of his weapon strapped on his back before getting out an assault riffle.
"Time to go to work." Sean said as he and the defenders and the Avengers along with Robbie and Carter got out both of whom were in their ghost Rider state. However they soon heard a loud mechanical growl coming from the portal.
"Uh what was that?" Jessica asked.
"Holy shit." Frank said as they looked up and saw a giant monster like snake came from the portal.
"You got to be kidding me." Sean said in shock.
"How the hell are we supposed to take that down?" Elektra asked in annoyance.
"I can handle it." Superman said going after it.
"Good luck." Sean said as they neared the tower. As they neared the tower on foot the rest of the League showed up and helped take down the Chitauri.
"This is a nightmare. How are we supposed to take these guys out if they keep coming?" Jessica asked
"Jessica just take them out." Sean said shooting three Chitauri in the face before the Chitauri were struck down by lightning from Thor who helped them since Loki escaped. "Whats the status up there?" Sean asked.
"The power surrounding the cube is impenetrable." Thor said.
"Thor's right. We got to deal with these guys." Tony said.
"How do we do this?" Natasha asked.
"As a team." Steve said.
"I have unfinished business with Loki." Thor said.
"Yeah? Well, Get in line." Barton said.
"Knock it off." Sean said.
"Loki's going to keep this fight focused on us, and thats what we need. Without him, these things could run wild. We got Stark and Superman up top. They're going to need us to..." Steve tried to say before someone on a motorcycle approached.
"Another Ghost Rider?" Batman asked.
"Johnny Blaze." Sean said as Johnny got off his bike and approached them.
"I thought something was up in New York so I got here as fast as I could." Johnny said before turning into the Ghost Rider state. (Does anyone always picture the Johnny Blaze from the First movie when they think about the Ghost Rider?)
"Is everyone gathered?" Tony asked.
"Yup." Sean said.
"Ok then we're bringing the party to you." Tony said as he and Superman flew towards them with the giant mechanical monster following them.
"I don't see how thats a party." Natasha said as Sean walked over to it.
"Sean what are you doing?" Diana asked.
"Remember How I said I had something special in mind for this? Well your about to see." Sean said before white flames engulfed him and to the Leagues shock he turned into a Ghost Rider and slashed his chained at the beast cutting it in half. The Other Chitauri saw this and roared and growled at them while Banner turning into the Hulk Roared right back at them as all the heroes in the city prepared to fight.
"We're going to have a talk about this when this is over." Kara said.
"Fine by me." Sean said as more Chitauri came out of the portal. "Your call cap." Sean said.
"Alright. Until we can close that portal is containment. Barton, I wan you and Frank up on that roof. Eyes on everything. Call out Patterns and Strays. Superman you and the others who are airborne help Thor try to keep them from sending more forces through the portal if that doesn't work then help us down here. Everyone else we've got ground operations." Steve said.
"Got it lets go." Superman said carrying Punisher and Hawkeye up to where they need to go.
"And Hulk." Captain said to green muscle who looked at him. "Smash." Captain America said making the Hulk smirk before jumping after the Chitauri.
"This is going to be fun." Sean said as he and the other Riders went to help the others.
Meanwhile
"Lex you cannot be serious." A general said to the bald business man.
"I Am serious if we don't act now the entire planet will be invaded and Loki will control us all." Lex said.
"But there are still civilians in the city not to mention the Justice league." The General said.
"A small price to pay for the survival of the human race I assure you." Lex said as his heartless workers prepared a nuclear warhead to destroy New York.
Back with the heroes
"YEEE HAAW!" Johnny Blaze yelled as he took control of one of the giant mechanical monster and set it on fire and crashed it into another monster.
"Nice work Blaze." Luke said taking down more of the Chitauri.
Sean and Diana were fighting against a large amount of the invaders before they took them all down.
"This isn't working." Sean said turning back to normal. "At this rate everyone is going to get to tired to fight we need to close that portal." Sean said.
"Any ideas?" Diana asked
"Ive got one." Natasha said getting on one of their airborne vehicles heading for the top of the tower where she just saw Hulk beat the ever living shit out of Loki. She landed on the top of the building where Selvig was who just woke up and had his free will back.
"The Scepter." Selvig said.
"Its not your fault you didn't know what you were doing." Natasha said.
"Actually I think I did. I built in a safety to cut their power source." Selvig said.
"Loki's scepter." Natasha said.
"It may be able to close the portal. And I'm looking right at it." Selvig said.
"Batman I need you on the Stark Tower now." Natasha said.
"Im on my way." Batman said heading up with his grappling hook. "What is it?" Batman asked.
"I need the scepter to help close the portal and I need you to watch our backs incase we get attacked." Natasha said.
Sean back in his Rider State was fighting with Diana and Karen getting rid of more Chitauri.
"Sean we have a problem Lex just got the green light to launch a nuclear warhead at New York." Talbot said on the comms.
"What! Who gave him permission for that?" Sean asked in anger.
"Never mind that where is it now?" Stark said.
"Three minutes away!" Talbot yelled as Stark rushed over to the missile.
"Can anybody copy I can close the portal." Natasha said.
"Not yet. Tony get that missile thorough the portal then get back." Sean said.
"On it!" Tony said going as fast as he could. He managed to get to the missile and led it into the portal just in time.
"Close it now!" Sean yelled.
"Got it." Natasha said as she closed the portal. As soon as the portal closed all the Chitauri died off since the missile hit their commander ship.
"Finally." Sean said back in his human state.
"Its not over yet." Batman said.
"Yeah one more thing." Sean said.
Loki was getting his strength back from the beating he received from the hulk getting to the bar area before he turned around and the Justice League the Defenders and the Avengers surrounded him.
"If its all the same to you, I'll have that drink now." Loki said making Sean scoff.
Later
Every channel was showing live footage of the invasion that was foiled by the Justice League the Defenders and the newly formed Avengers. Lex Corp took a major blow for sending a nuclear missile at New York but no charges were pressed since Lex was given the Green light to do so by a general who was dishonorably discharged from the military.
"Where are the Avengers now?" The President of the US asked General Talbot.
"Global Tech isn't monitoring their movements since I say they along with the Defenders and the League deserve some time off from this whole ordeal." Talbot said.
"And the Cube?" The president asked.
"Sean and I Both felt that it was to dangerous in human hands so Thor is taking it and Loki back to Asgard." Talbot said as Sean walked in the room of the transmission.
"It would seem the united nations owe you an un payable debt." The President said.
"No not really I'm just doing what needs to be done. But what about Lex Luthor? He nearly killed all of New York." Sean said.
"As much as I would prefer he be in a military prison for the rest of his days he cannot be held accountable since he was given the green light by a former high ranking General however though his company will be under investigation...Again." The President said making him and Talbot smirk.
"Good enough for me." Sean said as the transmission ended.
"So what happens now? The Avengers are now a public group of heroes like the League and the Defenders." Talbot said.
"Well all I can say is that when the world needs all three groups again which will most likely happen anyway in time they'll come back when they need to." Sean said.
Later
"Ok start talking." Diana said as she sat in his office.
"Look I didn't say anything because I don't really usually do that sort of thing unless I have to." Sean said.
"How did this happen anyway?" Shayera asked.
"How do you think?" Sean asked getting a glass out and some scotch.
"The accident?" Karen asked.
"Yup." Sean said.
Flash back nearly 7 years ago
Sean was on the cold floor of the streets bleeding out while his sisters were knocked out in the back seat of the car while their parents were dead.
"Someone please help." Sean mumbled out weakly losing to much blood. Just then he heard a motorcycle approach and someone got off before getting his sisters out of the car.
"Tell me what do you want?" A mysterious voice said to him while somehow his strength was returning.
"I want those who spill innocent blood to pay for the world to be rid of evil and corruption." Sean said before he managed to see the savior of his sisters and slightly widen his eyes seeing a man with a flaming skull for a head. The person in question was Carter Slade one of the current Ghost Riders.
"You will do good as a leader." Carter said holding his head before Sean started to groan in discomfort before he was engulfed in white flames and turned into a Ghost Rider more specifically the leader of the Riders and Roared into the air.
End Flash back
"So your the leader of the Riders that much I can see but why you exactly? You said you hated violence." Diana said.
"Oh I do but it doesn't mean I wont get my hands dirty unless I have no choice like this ordeal." Sean said.
"So is that where all your stamina comes from?" Harley asked making him roll his eyes while the others smirked.
"Yes." Sean said.
"Nearly unlimited?" Livewire asked seductively.
"Yes." Sean said rolling his eyes.
"Ok change of topic." Kara said having a small blush from the ideas forming in her head. "How many times have you had to get involved?" Kara asked.
"Not that many only three times including this one. The First time I ever killed was when I killed they guy who did the hit and run on my family. The second time was during the invasion which formed the league then this." Sean said.
"So you really don't get involved all that much." Ivy said.
"Nope I had to much to do back then." Sean said.
"Still its weird to see you as the leader of the Ghost Riders and whats with the white flames?" Tula asked.
"Thats what shows I am the leader." Sean said.
Meanwhile in Space
"Humans. They are not the cowering wretches we were promised. They stand. They are unruly, and therefor cannot be ruled." A male voice known at the other said to his master who stood up. "To challenge them is to court Death." The Other said.
His master turned his head showing his purple skin and had a grin on his face. This was a man just as powerful as DarkSeid this was Thanos.
