Ok, if this has come out before the new year, Happy new year. If this came out during Christmas and Hanukkah and Kwanza happy holidays, if this came out after new year, again, Happy New Year. And happy valentine's day you losers. God I hate that holiday

Holidays will probably be over by the next update. MY GOD, let me tell you they have been a hassle. I love the holidays. I'm a Stark, I love the winter, winter is my season. Still, when it comes to winter, that's when my family and I get the biggest hit to our bank accounts cause we literally have our eight days of Hanukkah and about 23 birthdays in winter alone. UGH .

Let's forget all that, and focus on the story

I am going to(Hopefully) Blow you away with this chapter, I feel really confident in this one, cause it's going to be crazy as fuck, the fighting, the dialogue, the intensity. I just love that now that I got the whole establishing chapters out of my way, I'm just having so much fun writing these arcs. Seriously, this is just so much fun. Once I did Loki BOOM my mind went into overdrive, taking in all the most famous story arcs in Marvel. I already have Days of Future past and the campaign of requiem set after Winter Soldier.

Start throwing other story arcs you'd like me to do in the reviews or PM. Guardians of the Galaxy is already on the way so no need in asking. I also have several personalized arcs in store, so if anyone is interested in seeing their own detailed arc, just send me the word. I like to see my own fans creativity.

I'm like falling asleep half the time when I'm working on this cause I work on this about a few hours a day to the point of mental exhaustion. That's not a good sign.

Still I enjoy this and I have 200+ others who say they like what I make so for that I am eternally grateful.

And something amazing happened. You see I grew up with something really special from 2001 all the way to 2010. For ten years, this was the series of toys, games and merchandise of all sorts that I brought religiously. And after 5 years I hope this is their comeback.

My childhood of Bionicles have at last, after five years returned with a new wave, revamping the six original Toa. Tahu, Gali, Lewa, Kopaka, Pohatu and Onua ARE BACK. FUCK YEAH

Of course, let's not forget about the biggest piece of new that has appeared during the gap for the next chapter.

SPIDER-MAN HAS OFFICIALLY JOINED THE MARVEL CINEMATIC UNIVERSE. HALLE FUCKING LUJAH. OH MY GOD, TYPING UP THESE WORDS CANNOT DESCRIBE THE FEELING OF PURE AMAZEMENT AND RELIEF. JUST….FUCK YEAH MAN, HELL FUCKING YEAH. Can't wait, 2017 Spider-man is now a part of the MCU, welcome home Spidey

And also, Goodbye Monty, thanks for everything R.I.P.

Rate Read and Review and as always, Have Nice Day

Noble Spartans, Noble Heroes Chapter 18: The Dark World part 2

In empty space, a pillar like ship floated aimlessly.

It had no destination

No motive

And no signs of life

For millenniums, this derelict ship remained in one spot, hidden from all but those with the ability to detect this foreign object.

Until now that it is.

Red marking began to glow all over the ship, the sounds of engines and machinery switching on.

Within the confines of said ship, a dark room brightened up oh so slightly. There in the center, a stasis pod hung suspended above the floor. Inside, one could easily see a humanoid resting within the pod.

Hissing came from the pod followed by steam shooting out from the sides. The lid lifted open.

Nothing happened several moments afterwards, not a sound or movement made or heard.

Then, the being inside inhaled a deep breath, exhaling slowly. His eyes shot open, glancing around to take in his surroundings.

At first, the being did nothing, his face remaining blank, however his expression dawned with realization when he detected a familiar faint source of immeasurable power. It was far, without a doubt. Possibly light years away. But he knew where it was. He knew it had at last revealed itself at the time when it was needed most.

The convergence had at last come once again.

A sinister smirk began crawling its way up his face.

The being jumped down from the pod, landing firmly on his two feet, taking in a giant gulp of air, a sense of triumph now coursing through him.

"The Aether is calling us" The Dark Elf stated victoriously "Our time has returned at last"

Malekith The Accursed has returned.

Asgard

"So then, the son of a bitch manages to sneak up behind me" Emile-A239 AKA Noble Four said to an enthralled audience of Asgardian warriors, Valkyries and surprisingly enough children "Pulls out this"

Emile activates his own personal plasma sword, eliciting gasps of amazement and wonder as well as several jumps of surprise.

"And guts me right in the back" Emile recalled darkly, motioning the way he was impaled back on Reach "But that fucker didn't get to savor his little win"

Emile shut the sword off, attached it to his thigh and then pulled out his prized kukri.

"I stabbed the bastard right in the neck and then in the head" Emile said with a hint of aggressive pride "And I just sat there, waiting to die"

Silence reigned for what seemed like an eternity.

"But" Emile started "Turns out I still had a lot of work to do"

Once more, the group surrounding Emile said and did nothing. They were taking in the tale of what should have been, in his eyes, his last stand.

"That was quite the story, Emile" Fandral said. He suddenly found himself grinning "I must say, you are a fine warrior"

Everyone then cheered at the statement, putting Emile on the spot.

'Well this is different' Emile thought, as many men and women praised him for his battle tales as well as his skills from those who were with him on the field of battle today in Vanaheim. Children just looked up at him in complete wonder and awe.

'Wonder how the big man is handling this' Emile thought to himself, getting a snicker out of it.

With said Spartan

"And then it explodes, sending all of us flying" Jorge said dramatically throwing his hands up for added effect to an audience composed of kids. All the adults stood in the back, equally entertained and amazed at Jorge's story of taking on the covenant

Jorge has had a lot of practice storytelling with his students and little Lucy back at the academy, so holding a captive audience like this was rather easy now.

"We thought that the mission was done, but of course, like before, it's never that simple" Jorge said casually "When you're a Spartan, especially if you're a member of Noble team, the mission is never easy. More scarab tanks were deployed from orbit along with a number of infantry. Emile, being Emile, rushed right into the fray killing who knows how many in a matter of seconds"

"Emile?" One of the kids asked

"Skull head over there" Jorge said, gesturing his head to his fellow Spartan

"So what did you do afterwards?" Another child asked, jittering excitedly

"Thankfully, Noble One was there to reign in the situation and devise a quick plan to eliminate the infantry" Jorge went on "Noble Two, our tech expert, was assigned to construct several explosives, Noble Three gave us sniper fire and the remainder of the team along with the army we were with fought on against the covenant"

"Jorge, Emile" A stern voice called out

Both Spartans looked over to see a very concerned Thor.

"Thor?" Jorge said

"I need you two to come with me now" Thor said sternly

The two glanced at o ne another before quickly putting on their helmets and rushing after Thor who was already on his way to the Rainbow bridge. The trio soon we're sprinting across the bridge to reach the Bifrost.

"Heimdall, we have arrived" Thor announced

The watcher merely nodded "Get ready my prince"

"So Thor, what's the problem?" Jorge asked

"Jane Foster, my friend, she went missing a few hours ago and has reappeared" Thor said grimly "But there is a sinister air around her now, and I fear for those around her"

"What kind of sinister air?" Emile inquired, feeling a bit annoyed that they're on a retrieval mission for Thor's obvious girlfriend

"One that you yourself had dealt with Emile" Thor said gravely

The three were engulfed and were soon on their way down to Earth.

Heimdall held a grim expression. The convergence was starting to move more erratically before his powerful eyes. A bad omen of things to come.

Earth

Jane Foster's vision was blurry when she opened her eyes after what seemed to be an eternity. Slowly, her eyesight cleared and the first thing Jane saw was a glass roof above her.

Groaning a bit, Jane sat up, instantly noticing that she was in a completely different place altogether. She was in a large empty room that was part of the abandoned warehouse complex. How did she know she was back at the warehouse complex? Because the second she saw her exit, Jane saw the car she arrived on with Darcy and Ian.

And what else was there besides her car?

"Oh you've got to be kidding me"

Jane jumped up and ran outside, headed right for her car.

"JANE!?"

Jane turned to see Darcy running up to her.

"Where the hell were you?" Darcy exclaimed in worry and relief

"You called the cops?!" Jane said in shock

"What else was I supposed to do?"

"Not call the police?"

"I've been freaking out!" Darcy, defending her actions

"You call the cops, they call the Feds. Next thing you know we have SHIELD crawling all over, "area-51-ing" the place"

"Don't you technically work for SHIELD?"

"That's beside's the point. And I'm more of a consultant if anything" Jane rebutted "But We had a stable gravitational anomaly! We had unimpeded access! Our only competition was ten years old!"

"Jane!" Darcy, finally silencing her friend "You were gone for five hours"

"What?"

They stare at each other, it begins raining but they realize the rain is not falling on them

"That's weird" Darcy casually stated

Though the rain effected everyone within the vicinity, a dry circle surrounded them, leaving the two untouched . Jane is holding out her hand but no rain is falling on her.

"Not weird if you know…" Jane turned back to find none other than

Thor, God of Thunder.

Jane immediately went over to him, the rainless circle following after her.

"Typical" Darcy dryly huffed as she was drenched by the rain

Jane walked over to Thor in a confident stride.

As Jane approaches Thor...

"Jane…"

SLAP

"Sorry, I just needed to make sure you were real. It's been a very strange day" A thoroughly befuddled Jane admitted

"I am. Jane I.."

SLAP

"Where were you?" Jane demanded

"Where were you?" Thor shot back with concern "Heimdall could not see you"

"Well sorry if your Heimdall couldn't see me or anything" Jane said a bit angrily "I haven't seen you in weeks! I saw you on the television a few times with the Avengers and all, fighting to the death like usual and you couldn't even stop by for a quick hello"

"I'm sorry Jane" Thro said sincerely with love "But After Loki's invasion on New York, the nine realms were thrown into chaos. Wars were raging, marauders were pillaging… I had to put an end to the slaughter"

"As excuses go. It's not…terrible" Jane conceded to Thor's reasoning. She did know that being in a relationship with the God of fricking Thunder, she just had to deal with these kinds of things

"Still Jane" Thor said, placing a hand on her cheek "I am sorry for not coming to you for so long. But I do know this"

"What?" Jane, swooning

"I know.." Thor leaned in

"You do?"

"Do what?"

"What?"

They lean in towards each other, but as they're about to go for the stereotypical Disney kiss, Darcy runs over.

"Hey! Is this you?"She indicates the rain, which Thor instantly stops

"Uh, we're kinda in the middle of something here" Jane said awkwardly

"Um, I'm pretty sure we are getting arrested" Darcy said pointedly

"Hold that thought" Jane said to Thor, running over to the police

"Look at you, still all muscly and everything" Darcy said jokingly "How's space?"

"Space is fine" Thor said, giving his old friend a warm smile

Jane strides up to one of the policemen.

"Excuse me!" Jane called out to the nearest officer

"Are you Jane Foster?" The policeman interrogated

"Yes"

"Do you know this man?" The policeman gestures to Ian, who's being patted down against a cop car.

"He's my intern" Jane says. She quickly adds "My intern's intern"

"This is private property and you're trespassing, the lot of you. You'll have to come with me"

As the policeman reaches to grab Jane's arm, a burst of red energy explodes from her being, knocking back the officer and making Jane fall to the ground.

Thor shields Darcy from the energy wave and quickly rushes over to a stirring Jane.

"Jane! Jane! Are you alright?" Thor, almost begging

Thor helps Jane to her feet

"What just happened?" The dazed scientist asks

"Place your hands on your heads, step back" The now recovered policeman demands

"This woman is unwell" Thor states

"She's dangerous"

Thor eyed the mortal a menacingly growls

"So am I"

"Uh sir" A rookie officer came up from behind. It was clear he was nervous and excited at the same time

"Sir, that's Thor…from the Avengers"

The officer's expression shows that he didn't realize this at first, and now also realizes that he may have just angered a god.

"THOR!"

All heads turn to see two gigantic armored men running out from the warehouses. These two looked like living embodiments of war.

"Thor, what happened?" Emile said, eyeing the now frightened officers. He immediately pumped his shotgun and pointed it at them

"Did these assholes do something?!" Noble Four growled, ready to kill

"Stand down you moron" Jorge said firmly, pushing the shotgun down. He looked to Thor

"Thor, our armor picked up an unusual energy reading. What happened here?"

"I believe I found something of great importance that must be studied back in Asgard" Thor explained "Jane here is the one exuding the strange energy"

"Then let's move" Emile said

"Agreed" Thor nodded, now addressing Darcy before departing

"Darcy, find Selvig. He may have some idea as to what is happening so he may be able to explain it to you"

"Thor, what is going on?" A now very confused Jane practically pleaded

"I will explain shortly" Thor said, pulling her close "Hold on"

"What are you doing?"

Thor looks up to the sky, Emile and Jorge standing by them. The Bifrost opens and beams them up. Darcy steps over the smoldering imprint it left on the ground, and looks up.

"Holy shit!"

Pretty much sums it up.

Asgard

Heimdall stood in the center of the controls to the Bifrost, observing the returning Spartans and Thor along with Thor's lover, Jane Foster.

Heimdall casually tilts his head to the side, a piece of a car bumper flying past him.

Thor, Jorge, Emile and Jane arrive, with Jane looking around with excitement.

"We have to do that again" Jane said, with a dazed grin.

Her eyes fell upon the imposing armored figure of Heimdall and she faltered slightly "Hi"

"Welcome to Asgard Jane Foster" Heimdall greeted kindly

Svartalfheim

Malekith stood in the middle of the same battlefield that the three armored warriors walked upon earlier.

His face held a rare gaunt look, showing a rather depressed side.

"Malekith?"

"Look at my legacy, Algrim" Malekith said softly, yet fury was evident "Is this what remains from my people?"

"Many of our race still survive, Malekith" Algrim affirmed

"That's not what I meant" Malekith barked in anger

The dark elf was now seething "We have been reduced to nothing. All because of Asgard. We are nothing more than a children's tale of old, told by their parents to get them to behave"

Malekith whirled round to face his right-hand man.

"I will show the Asgardians why our race was once feared across all the realms" Malekith promised with evil intent "They will suffer under our power and succumb to the darkness as all shall soon"

"They shall my lord" Algrim said, inclining his head in respect "But as your friend I must advise you not to do anything rashly"

Malekith's expression morphed into one of thought and planning.

"The Aether is on Asgard right now" Malekith said "But we cannot go in without a plan"

"What do you propose, Malekith" Algrim inquired

Malekith gained a sinister grin "It is time we reunite with our people. Rally the dark elves, Algrim. It is time they learn that their ruler has returned and their time has at long last come"

Scene skip

Back on Asgard, Thor, Jorge and Emile were observing Asgardian healers scan Jane's body in an attempt to discover what exactly occurred back on Earth. She is surrounded by Asgard's physician, Eir, stands beside her, alongside her assistants. They study the energy field to try and determine the cause of her illness. Jane points to the thick mass of it floating above her.

"What's that?"

"Be still" Eir commanded softly but with a firm tone

Thor addressed one of the healers "This is not of Earth. What is it?"

"We do not know. But he will not survive the amount of energy surging within her" The healer replied with a sigh with frustration

Jane remained focused on the energy field, her eyes widening with amazement and realization "That's a quantum field generator, isn't it?"

"It's a Soul Forge" Eir said curtly

"Does a Soul Forge transfer molecular energy from one place to another?" Jane said wittingly

Eir looked at Jane, impressed at her perceptiveness "Yes"

Jane turned to Thor and quietly mouthed to him "Quantum field generator"

Thor smiles affectionately.

"Oi, have your moment later" Emile, intentionally ending the affectionate moment like an ass

Jorge in turn rolled his eyes "Punk ass"

"Aw, you remembered my ole nickname" Emile snarked with a wry grin

Odin enters the chamber, ending any further conversation

"Normally I would not allow the entrance to any regular mortal denizen" Odin started rigidly with a stern gaze fixed on his son

"She is ill" Thor retorted

"She is mortal" Odin clipped "That is their defining trait"

"Ahem" Emile coughed, giving the all father a challenging look

Odin actually gave a grim, apologetic look "Most mortals"

At this point, Jane sat up, picking up on the subtle insults directed at her

"Did he just…" She looks to Odin "Who do you think you are?"

"I am Odin. King of Asgard. Protector of the Nine Realms" The deity responded with a glint of amusement in his eye (I don't want Odin to be a super major league asshole)

"Oh" Jane was instantly humbled "Well I'm.."

"I know very well who you are" Odin said with warm greeting "Jane Foster"

Jane turns to Thor, smiling "You told your dad about me?"

"Something's within her father. Something I have not seen" Thor said to Odin

"It is for that reason that I have come here" Odin said "Guards, escort Lady Foster to the Hall of History, I will explain the situation there "

The guards moved to take her off from the table, when Thor spoke up

"Wait, no, don't touch her…"

Too late. As the closest guard placed his hand on her shoulder, another wave of red energy shot out from her, knocking the guards back.

Thor was instantly by Jane's side, deep concern on his face and in his voice.

"Jane, are you alright?"

Odin also rushed over, hovering his hand over her arm.

"It can't be"

"ALL FATHER" several guards rushed in along with Lady Sif and Fandral

It was obvious from all for their urgent expressions that something needed immediate attention

"We bring troubling news my king" Fandral spoke up first

"Yes" Sif continued, catching her breath quickly "Heimdall just sent a report from his post. Svartalfheim is clouded and the last thing he saw was the converging of Dark Elf tribes"

This was enough to alarm a good number of the occupants in the room save for the Spartans and Jane, who have no real knowledge on these 'Dark Elves'.

"I feared that this would happen" Odin murmured to himself, which was heard by Emile and Jorge

"Then come My fellow Asgardians" Thor said sternly "Let us journey forth to Svartalfheim"

"No Thor" Odin said firmly, placing a strong hand on his son's shoulder "You must remain here and guard Jane Foster"

"Father?"

"Lady Sif, Fandral" Odin, ignoring his sons befuddled expression "Take a handful of our best warriors and go down to Svartalfheim at once"

"We'll go as well" Jorge perked up, placing his helmet on

"Yeah, I've been craving some action" Emile said, eagerly pumping his shotgun

"Very well" Odin nodded in consent "Thor, Lady Foster, come with me"

"Nobles Four, Five" Fandral, gaining the attention of the two "Come along"

The duo complied exiting the healing chamber.

"Father, what is happening?" Thor demanded "Why are you sending them to Svartalfheim without me?"

"Because I fear for what is to come" Odin said enigmatically "Come along Jane Foster, there is much to discuss"

"One moment Father" Thor said, rushing out after the others

"SPARTANS" Thor shouted, coming around the corner to see them rather far ahead. Thankfully, Thor had Mjolnir with him. He could fly normally without it, but it does help him in getting from place to place a lot faster.

Twirling his hammer, Thor rocketed over to the group, landing before them.

"My Friends" Thor said aloud, making them all come to an abrupt halt

"Yes?" Jorge asked

"If anything happens on Svartalfheim, you are to return immediately" Thor said stoically "I do not like this foreboding feeling"

"You are not the only one, Thor" Sif spoke up "There is an unusual sense of dread in the air"

"Well then let's not delay any further and hopefully remove this threat" Fandral quipped

"My thought's exactly" Emile said giddily "C'mon, what're we waiting for?"

With that, he and Fandral along with the Asgardian warriors all ran past them leaving Sif, Thor and Jorge.

"Sif, Jorge…" Thor said slowly, but was cut off by Noble five, knowing what the thunder god was going to ask

"Don't worry, Thor" Jorge said reassuringly "We'll keep them under control"

"As much as we can" Sif added quickly

"That's all that I can ask for" Thor, giving the two a friendly smile before taking off into the air again

"C'mon" Sif said, already running to catch up to them "We're going to miss all the action"

"I guess it's up to me then" Jorge muttered, running alongside Sif as the two rejoined the small company that were on their way to the Dark World.

Scene Skip

The devastated wastelands of Svartalfheim remained as barren and lifeless as they were when Jorge, Emile and Thor were here.

Malekith stood atop a destroyed, down ship, overlooking the wreckage of his people. Anger was evident in his eyes, yet he hid it well in his blank face.

"Malekith"

The former ruler of Svartalfheim turned to see a legion of Dark elves all armored and equipped with various weaponry all silently watching the leader with utmost respect. up above, new ships were flying over head ready to wreak havoc upon Malekith's word.

"My people" Malekith said aloud "For too long we have remained under the shadow of Asgard. For too long, our people have been disrespected and cursed with humiliation. For too long, the light has existed, staining the cosmos"

Malekith paused, eyeing his new army.

"Not anymore" Malekith quietly declared, the malicious whisper echoed throughout the entire field and skies making sure every Dark Elf heard his words

Malekith looked up, an evil glint in his eyes.

"We shall reclaim the Aether and the eternal night" Malekith proclaimed before roaring out "BUT FIRST, WE SHALL BURN ASGARD OUT OF EXISTANCE"

All the Dark elves roared along in approval, making savage howls and remarks in agreement.

Malekith held a smug expression when his head twitched slightly.

Algrim saw this.

"Malekith?"

"They are a coming"

Moments later

The pillar of light that descended from up high, hitting the ground. The pillar receded revealing the small company that had come from Asgard to scout the world of ruin.

Instantly Noble Four and Five were on guard.

"Emile"

"I know"

"Spartans?" Fandral whispered, lookin back and forth between the two, hand on his rapier's hilt "What's wrong?"

Jorge and Emile instead chose to be silent. Jorge raised on finger to where his mouth is on his helmet in a 'shh' motion. Not really wanting to object, everyone remained silent as Emile and Jorge began walking forward cautiously and slowly.

Noble Four waved his hand, telling the group to follow after them. Not a sound was made by the group save for the crunching of their boots on the ground.

"The air" Jorge spoke through the private comm he shared with Emile "It's different around here"

"Yeah" Emile agreed, unusually serious "Something keeps shifting around us. It's playing hell with my radar. Glad it's even working right now"

"Be sure to thank Cortana and Vigilance later" Jorge said as he held up his hand making the company stop.

"Jorge" Sif whispered "What is it?"

"We're being watched" Jorge said enigmatically "This wasn't like before. There is a presence out here now"

"Yeah" Emile walked up to a pile of old armor from the war of the Aether.

He knelt down to it and began checking the garb for any weaponry or gadgets and found nothing. What h e did find where footprints that led a trail towards the armor and then away from it.

"Someone was here" Emile announced causing the entire group to join him where he kneeled

"Look" Emile pointed "The tracks go off in that direction"

"Then that is our destination" Fandral said fiercely, now drawing out his Rapier

"Now let's not just rush in recklessly" Jorge chided, placing a hand on the swordsman's shoulder "We're smarter than that"

"What do you propose, sir?" An Asgardian archer asked

Jorge eyed him for a moment "How good are you with that bow?"

"I can hit from a league away sir" The Archer said with confidence

"What is your name?" Jorge asked

The Asgardian archer stood more militantly now.

"I am Cuyler" The Asgardian stated proudly "One of the finest archers in Asgard"

"How Far can you see?" Jorge inquired

"How far do you want to me to shoot, sir?" Cuyler said with a now mischievous grin

"Confidence" Jorge said "Good to see that.

Jorge now looked to the Asgardian standing besides the bowman "And you, what is your name?"

This Asgardian Warrior was different from the rest. He wore a more slimmed down black and silver armor over the typical Asgardian soldier garb. The warrior possessed a large claymore strapped to his back and the only other bulky pieces on armor are his gauntlets the protect his arms.

"Brynjar" He said neutrally

"Brynjar here is one of our finest swordsman" Fandral proclaimed, placing an assuring hand on the man's shoulder "I personally chose him to come along for the scout"

"Very well" Jorge nodded in appreciation "Cuyler, Brynjar, the two of you are to find a suitable position for your archery abilities. Brynjar, it is your duty to protect Cuyler from any surprise attacks"

"Yes sir" Brynjar said, placing his right arm over his heart and bowing in respect, Cuyler doing the same.

"The rest of you, we shall continue our trek, but remember keep your heads down and weapons at the ready" Jorge said seriously to Sif, Fandral and the other four Asgardians "We have no idea what's lurking around here"

"Could it be the Dark elves?" Sif suggested

"But haven't the dark elves been in complete disarray since the death of Malekith?" One of the Asgardians said

"Let's hope that's the case" Emile said neutrally, looking over to the dark horizon "Otherwise we get the hell outta here and report to Thor and The king and shut these fuckers down"

"Here here" Fandral agreed

From afar

Malekith stood atop the very same cliff where the Aether was once excavated back during the war. He held a wicked face, knowing where the Aether was and how to get it.

"Malekith" Algrim now stood beside him "Our forces are ready"

"Good" Malekith said sinisterly. The accursed paused for dramatic effect

"Begin"

Cuyler and Brynjar

The archer along with his bodyguard found a suitable position amongst a destroyed ship for cover as he used his keen eyesight to spot any kinds of movement in the distance.

Before separating from the group, the larger Spartan handed him a communication device for obvious reasons. As a matter of fact, here's that reason right now.

"Cuyler, report" Jorge's voice asked on the other end

"Nothing to report sir" Cuyler responded "I see nothing on the horizon save for an old village just a few meters ahead of you"

"Yeah we see it. Is the area around you clear?"

Cuyler paused "For now"

"Very well" Jorge said solemnly walking between a multitude of ruins. They were now within the abandoned village with skeletons and demolished structures everywhere "Keep us updated"

"As you wish, sir" Cuyler replied, already notching an arrow.

Jorge and Sif walked in the front while the rest hung back with Fandral and an axe wielding Asgardian covered the rear.

"I dread this foreboding sense" Sif said grimly to Jorge "There is a sinister stench of malevolence within the air"

"Indeed" Jorge said, crouching down to examine some footprints that are not entirely distinguishable thanks to the ominous winds that make the grain on the ground cover the tracks.

Narrowing his eyes, he shoots up and points his Minigun at eleven o'clock.

"Movement" Jorge said aloud, causing the rest to tense up

Emile came up to Noble Five's side, shotgun aimed with Jorge's gun.

"Radar?"

"Yeah" Jorge said.

Emile looked back and pointed to Fandral and the axe wielder and waved them over. The two silently trudged over and the trio cautiously walked over to where Jorge's radar picked up movement.

They stood before a hut that was partially demolished. It had a second floor with a large gaping hole.

Emile stood in front of the door and held up his hand with three fingers. He counted down and quickly kicked the door right off its hinges and the trio rushed in, weapons up.

"Clear" Emile said a moment later. He pointed to the two behind him and directed them towards the door on the far right, while he pointed his thumb over to the hallway to the left.

Fandral and the Asgardian soldier nodded in consent and they separated.

Meanwhile, Cuyler tilts his head slightly and contacts Jorge.

"Noble Five" Cuyler said seriously "My eyes just saw a brief glimpse of movement from the edge of the destroyed village you had just entered, north of your position"

"Were you able to distinguish anything?" Jorge asked, now tense as he the other three Asgardian warriors and Sif face the direction from which the movement was spotted

"I saw a body shape…more like half of it" Cuyler said, mentally berating himself for not seeing it sooner. But he also knew, now wasn't the time for that.

"I keep seeing blurs in between the houses" Cuyler continued on "They have a humanoid figures, undoubtedly they are coming to where you are all standing"

"Emile" Jorge now switching links "What's your status"

"Bland and dangerous" Emile said oddly "Nothing's fucking happening, but I know there's a son of a bitch crawling around here somewhere"

"Well come back and regroup" Jorge ordered "Get Fandral and the axe wielder and return to the group"

"Roger that big man" Emile said, using his advanced radar to find his two allies

Fandral and Higan(Axe guy) were walking around rubble as soft as possible.

"Sir Fandral" Higan spoke up "Do you think we will find anything in this ruin?"

"I pray not, Higan" Fandral said warily "Though my warrior blood craves combat, my logic is dictating us to flee at a moment's notice. A great evil looms over this place that watches our every move"

"You'd be right in that regard, Fandral" A familiar voice quipped

Higan and Fandral whirled back to see Emile approaching them

"Jorge called us back" Emile informed "Cuyler spotted figures moving up in the north toward the others. We regroup and see just what we are facing"

"Verily" Fandral murmured

Moments later, the recon trio returned to Jorge's group, everyone brandishing their weapons respectively.

"Has our eyes seen anything else?" Emile asked Jorge

"We've got movement up ahead and to our right"

"Sirs" Cuyler's voice was heard by the entire team "Whatever is moving in between the rubble is closing in on your….Wait, there's something to your…"

That was all Cuyler managed to say as an inhuman roar pierced the air. A pitch black skinned creature with pointy ears and silver armor leapt out from a window.

The humanoid didn't get very far as a golden arrow shot in and out from its head. The being dropped dead before the group.

"Dark Elf" Sif murmured

"AMBUSH" Jorge shouted as he tossed down a bubble shield. The bubble shield protected the team from a multitude of projectiles and energy blasts that came from the front, left and right.

"We have to fall back to better cover" Emile said "We use the back otherwise they'll cut us off"

"I concur with Noble Four" Fandral said

"Very well" Jorge prepared his minigun. It received various upgrades, courtesy of the tech genius's in his team. He switched the rounds to plasma incineration. This mode was a highly advanced version of the typical plasma round. To put it simply the advancement is in the name. The plasma fires and completely burns anything it hits into nothing but ash.

"When I give the word, You will all make a break for it while I cover our escape" Jorge said sternly "Cuyler I'm going to need you to make sure there's no stragglers or sneak attacks on me or the others"

"I shall do what I can Spartan" Cuyler replied

"Noble Five" Sif held a professional demeanor but there was obvious concern in her eyes and tone "Are you sure about this?"

"Sif" It was Emile who answered "If there's one man who can get the job done better than I can, it's the big man. Trust me, Jorge ain't dying so easily"

"Appreciate the sentiment. Now GO"

With that, the group and a reluctant Sif began running back the direction they came from just as Dark elves began jumping out from their cover.

Jorge was already on the case.

"Let's see how they hold against a Spartan" Jorge muttered somewhat excitedly.

There was a low hum coming from Jorge's gun as he backed up from the now charging Dark Elves.

Jorge pressed down on the trigger and unleashed hell.

Plasma bolts shredded through the dark elf forces and the buildings, the smell of burnt flesh, metal and earth now saturated the air.

A few Dark Elves who were still charging at Noble Five fell before they could reach him. Golden arrows protruded from their vitals or gaping holes on their bodies showed the circumstance of their deaths.

A few Dark Elves on the other hand didn't aim for Jorge at all. Instead they all ran towards the retreating group. Sadly, they thought that these runners were easy kills.

BLAM

A Dark elves head exploded from a shotgun blast courtesy of Noble Four.

"Finally" Emile grinned, hitting a Dark elf in the face with the but of his gun

"Some action" Emile said, shooting the downed elf with his shotgun, leaving a large hole in its chest

"Now is not the time for this, Emile" Sif scoffed, yet she held some hints of excitement

She gave her weapon a few strong twirls before it materialized to its full size. It was a large, spear-like double bladed sword. With her shield in the other hand, the goddess of war performed a spinning slash, incapacitating a dark blue skinned dark elf that was within range of her blade.

Fandral was dueling with several Dark Elves at once alongside Higan. The other three Asgardian warriors were holding their own against their opponents.

"Keep moving people" Emile shouted, slicing the throat of an elf

The group finished off who they were facing and began sprinting through the old destroyed village, the barren war torn valley up ahead.

"Jorge" Emile contacted Five "You better hurry up with your killing spree and get your ass back here"

"Working on it" Jorge grunted, punching a much large Dark Elf

"Don't know what you are" Jorge said to the tall Elf "But you aren't getting past me"

The Dark Elf seemed to gurgle before actually speaking.

"You are a fool" The beast said in a menacing voice "You are all but the first of our leaders victims. Soon, the glory of the Dark Elves shall be restored. Asgard will fall and then, the rest of the universe. The Aether shall be ours and so shall your head"

"You talk too much" Jorge said now pulling out his own blade Emile made specifically for him.

The blade was large. It was Jorge's height, just a tad shorter than the behemoth of a Spartan.

"Thank you Emile" Jorge gripped the hilt with both hands.

The Kursed Elf roared, rampaging towards the Spartan.

With one fell swing, Noble Five sliced the Kursed cleanly in half.

Jorge heard the shouts of more Dark Elves not too far from him. Choosing to flee then run, Jorge made the blade fold back into the hilt and he picked up his large gun, running to catch up to the others. He was full on sprinting, his boots leaving imprints on the ground, not at his size but at the sheer force behind of Jorge's sprint.

Cuyler in the meantime was firing arrow after arrow, already a fourth of his arrows gone(Just assume he's got a shit ton of arrows, since you know…magic and science and shit).

Brynjar hung back with his claymore resting on his shoulder. Now that the enemy had made itself present, he wasn't taking any chances if a dark elf decided to sneak up on them.

"How fare our companions?" Brynjar asked the archer

"They have now left the ruins and are now running through the barren plains" Cuyler informed "Noble Five on the other hand remained behind to ensure the escape of the others"

"Is he well?"

"Yes" Cuyler fired another arrow, the golden streak sailing across the large open land before finally embedding itself in the skull of a charred skinned dark elf.

Brynjar saw a trailed of dirt from afar. He managed to distinguish Noble Four's bulky armor amongst the group.

From behind he saw another cloud of dirt being kicked up, only this one was more linear then the one before it and was moving at a much faster speed.

"By Odin's beard" Cuyler whispered in amazement "These Spartans truly are incredible"

"Is that Noble Five running to catch up to Lady Sif and Sir Fandral's company?" Brynjar asked in disbelief

"Indeed it is" Cuyler said with a smirk

"Cuyler!" Jorge's voice said in the archers ear

"Yes sir?"

"Leave now" Jorge said gravely "Asgard is in danger"

Just as Jorge said that small tidbit, a new sound now echoed throughout the field causing the entire small skirmish/retreat to halt.

On the far horizon, giant pillars rose up and took to the skies. What was even more shocking were the ships that appeared out of nowhere, already airborne(It's the ships from the Dark World, you all already know this for those that have seen the movie).

Now, 2 dozen Svartalfheim battleships floated in the air.

"By Odin" Brynjar whispered, this time in terror "What sort of force is this?'

"You must return to Asgard NOW" Jorge commanded from his end of the link "Warn Asgard quickly so they can round up some kind of defense"

"What about you?" Cuyler said

"We shall hold on until then. Perhaps we can slow them down somehow" Jorge said stoically "Now go, and don't make me repeat myself"

The other end cut off making the two look at one another.

"We are not leaving them behind" Brynjar said firmly

"But what about Asgard?" Cuyler countered, though he was unsure

"Then go" Brynjar said firmly "It only takes one to deliver a message"

"Brynjar"

"Don't deny me this Cuyler" Brynjar said, a maddening grin now on his expression "I've been craving a good fight after all"

Brynjar didn't wait any further in rushing down the field.

"Can't we just….Call Heimdall to get retrieve us all at once?" Cuyler said lamely

Jorge continued his non-stop sprint, now jumping and nimbly dodging explosives from rockets and magical blasts coming from the Dark Elf foot soldiers.

"Geez, nobody told me they could do that" Jorge grumbled a bit having to yet again avoid another blast of arcane energy from a Dark Elf.

Emile's group at this point had at last reached the original spot from where they had arrived.

"Comrades"

Everyone saw Brynjar running towards them.

"Brynjar, what are you still doing here?" Fandral asked

"I came to aid you" Brynjar answered "Noble Five told us to go warn Heimdall, so I told Cuyler to go instead of the two of us. It only takes one to deliver a message"

"Really?" Sif questioned, tilting her body a bit to look over Brynjar's shoulder "Then explain why Cuyler is now coming to us then returning to Asgard"

All heads turned to see none other than the aforementioned archer, looking pale and grave.

"Cuyler?" Brynjar said "Why are you still here? Why have you not gone back to Asgard?"

"That's just it, Brynjar" Cuyler panted with nervousness "Heimdall can't hear me!"

"What?!"

"What do you mean by that?" Fandral interrogated

"I called for Heimdall a few times and waited for a response yet nothing happened" Cuyler said quickly "No Bifrost bridge opening, now swirling cloud in the sky, nothing. It's as if"

"Something or someone was interfering with your calls" Emile surmised "Heimdall said that he couldn't hear or see what was occurring here. We were sent here to investigate and something must have happened on our way down to completely cut us off from Asgard"

"Does this mean we are trapped here?" One of the Asgardians asked

"Starting to look like it" Emile said grimly, reloading his shotgun

"OI, what are you all still doing here?"

Jorge had finally caught up to the rest.

"Bad news, big man" Emile said "Looks like our exit is blocked. Something's preventing us from contacting Heimdall"

Emile then glanced up

"And now we're too late" Emile said angrily

Everyone now looked up as all of those pillar-like ships rocketed upwards into the air, gaining speed before activating their camouflage and vanishing from sight.

"Ok, that's not good" Fandral said nonchalantly

Asgard

Thor was currently watching over Asgard. All seemed well and quiet.

"Too quiet" Thor murmured to himself.

"Are you well Thor?"

"Mother" Thor said warmly, turning around to hug her

"Thor" Frigga, wife to Odin and mother of Thor and Loki.

"What brings you here mother?" Thor asked

"Is all well?"

"Actually, I was here to escort someone you know" Frigga said wittingly

Thor arched an eyebrow and turned back to see Jane Foster wearing a more lavish clothing of Asgardian wear.

"Jane" Thor said softly "You look beautiful"

Jane blushed at the compliment.

"I now see why she captured your heart my son" Frigga sad kindly, now walking over to the Midgardian.

"Well versed in both beauty and intelligence" Frigga said fondly, causing Jane Foster's expression to instantly change into a burning face of crimson.

Thor smiled serenely at the praise his mother was giving towards his lover.

Still, even in this moment of temporary piece, the pit sitting in Thor's stomach did little to quell his never ending concern and tenseness.

Something was coming.

Asgard prison

Marauders were walking through a make shift hallways with prison cells holding back, surprise surprise, prisoners with the use of golden force fields.

All the cubed cells had blank white walls and ceilings, save for the small force field window preventing their escape.

Yet one stood out from the rest. While the other blocks held several prisoners each, this cell contained only one captive, in a rather lavish setup, with a couch/bed, a table with a bowl of fruit and a horizontal, three cased bookshelf

He wasn't as grimy, filthy or as hideous as the rest of his prison mates.

The man contained sharp facial features, a blank face and a devious, conniving set of eyes.

He glanced up from his book, observing the new inmates.

"Odin continues to bring me more friends. How thoughtful" Loki said sarcastically

"The books I sent" Frigga said to her adopted son "Do they not interest you?"

Loki scowled

"Is that how I am to wrought away into eternity? Reading?"

"I've done everything in my power to make you comfortable"

"Have you?" Loki taunted "Does Odin share your concern"

Frigga says nothing

"Does Thor" Loki went on, his tone now bitter "IT must be so inconvenient , them asking after me day and night"

"You know full well that your actions brought you here" Frigga said sternly

"My actions? I was merely giving truth to the lie that I've been fed my entire life" Loki said with conviction "That I was born to be a king"

"A king?" Frigga arched an eyebrow "A true king admits his faults. What of the lives you had taken from Earth?"

"A mere handful compared to the number that Odin has taken himself" Loki retorted

"Your Father.." Frigga began

"HE'S NOT MY FATHER" Loki snapped, losing his temper

"Then am I not your mother?" Frigga asks after a beat

Loki hesitates. He realizes that if he is to deny Odin as his father, he must do the same to Frigga.

"You're not" Loki said coldly

Frigga forces a smile, but there are tears in her eyes. She steps closer to Loki

"Oh Loki" She says in her motherly tone "Always so perceptive about everyone but yourself"

Loki looks regretful at his words. Shaking his head, he steps towards Frigga and move to place his hands upon her own upturned palms. She slowly dissolve at his touch; she is only an astral projection. Loki is left with a saddened expression.

With Heimdall

The watcher of Asgard was troubled. Scratch that he was supremely worried, yet he hid it perfectly under his fierce gaze. Something was amiss.

Last he remembered Svartalfheim couldn't be seen but he could still send Fandral, Sif and company down there.

Now…he can't see them, hear them or even feel where they are on the Dark World. He keeps hearing echoes of his name here and there, each time sounding more frantic then the previous shout.

Heimdall shook his head and closed his eyes, unmoving now. The watcher was concentrating, reigning in his power and reaching out to Svartalfheim in the hopes of finding his friends and warriors.

He would have found them had it not been for him dashing out of the Bifrost entrance and onto the rainbow bridge.

Pulling out two daggers which extended into 3 feet blades, Heimdall leapt off the bridge and impaled both blades into an invisible large ship(Not the fighter, no these are one of the really big ones).

The giant pillar ship chose to ascend into the air, proving to be a mistake as Heimdall used this to his advantage.

He pulled both swords out and back flipped towards the long spire of the ship.

Heimdall stabbed both blades into the pillars sides and slid down, creating two large gashes on the ship.

The Asgardian then tried a very rare move(I made it up). Being the guardian and watcher of Asgard he has learned to mentally call a small portion of power from the Bifrost bridge. Channeling its power, beams of light exploded out of Heimdall's blades, punching holes right through the ship. What's more was the energy went upwards, following the long scratches caused by Heimdall, systematically obliterating the ship, inside and out.

Heimdall landed back onto the rainbow bridge, watching with smug satisfaction as the ship fell to its demise, exploding in a ball of fire.

However Heimdall knew this was only one ship.

He slowly glanced back towards the Bifrost entrance and saw multiple ships appear out of thin air. An invasion force has arrived.

Heimdall could do little but watch as half a dozen ships sent out multiple Dark Elf Harrows to assault Asgard.

The harrows began pummeling the city with multiple green blasts of energy, sending the civilians running in fear.

Heimdall wasted little time in running back towards the Bifrost bridge to retrieve his blade, Hofund. Using the power of the Bifrost(Again, I'm making this shit up cause it makes sense to me), Heimdall managed a small teleport that made him arrive in the defense room.

He walked up to the machine that activated the Asgardian palace and city shield along with the various defenses scattered strategically across Asgard.

Heimdall grabbed Hofund and inserted the blade into the activation slot.

Meanwhile

By this point, Thor, Jane and Frigga had heard the explosions and screams of the people and the warriors rushing to the scenes of chaos erupting across the realm.

"Mother"

"I know" Frigga said, now placing a hand on Jane's shoulder "I'll keep her safe"

Thor just nodded, already running towards the small cliff that lead off to the side of the Asgardian gardens. He jumped up and twisted in midair, catching Mjolnir. Instantly his arms were incased with his armor sleeves and his red cap was flowing behind him as he rocketed right towards a Harrow.

Thor smashed right through to ship, destroying it in the air, leaving little debris to fall to the ground.

"Foul enemies of Asgard" Thor's voice boomed across the realm of Asgard. Many Harrows began swirling around him "I know not who you or what you are or where you even came from. But you have been foolish enough to attack my home and my people. For that, YOU SHALL FACE THE SON OF ODIN, THOR"

Thor began twirling his mystic hammer. Dark clouds began swirling in the air, thunder claps following immediately afterwards.

Thor then exerted more strength into his spinning hammer. That caused a tornado to descend and surround Thor.

Harrows that were unfortunate enough to fly by the tornado instantly got sucked into the growing vortex. Soon dozens of harrows were caught in the twister created by Thor.

Thor adjusted his arm that held the spinning Mjolnir. He pointed his hammer arm upward, making the tornado move towards where he pointed to taking all the harrows with it. Once the twister with the fighter ships were a good distance from Asgard, Thor mentally called upon a barrage of lightning bolts to his hammer. Once Mjolnir was struck with a sufficient amount of bolts, Thor unleashed all of its power into the twister that still held on to all the Dark Elf Harrows desperately attempting to escape the tornado.

The moment a lightning bolt struck one of the unlucky ships, it set off a chain reaction, changing to tornado of air and Harrow ships into a tornado of fire and thunder(ALL TO SAVE THE WORLD. Guess the reference ;)).

Any other harrow that passed by the fiery vortex was caught in the fire storm, engulfing them in incineration and electrocution.

Thor felt a sense of accomplishment and great satisfaction in the burning fire ball. The feeling was soon suppressed as he descended downward landing in the middle of a group of an Asgardian battalion. He coincidentally landed in the Skiff fields of Asgard.

Many of the flying boats were already being commandeered and were airborne moments later to engage the Harrows in dogfight.

"THOR"

Thor looked back to find Volstagg and Hogun, who had returned from Vanaheim after making sure it was safe, coming up to him.

"My friends" Thor greeted with the warriors handshake "Do you have good news?"

"The palace shields and Asgards defenses have been fully activated" Hogun said briskly and solemnly

"Good" Thor felt some relief when he noticed something

"Where is Fandral?" Thor asked, wondering about the absence of the other member of the warriors three.

"And for that matter, what of Sif, the Spartans and the scouting company?" Thor said, a growing sense of worry "Have they not returned to Asgard?"

"No" Volstagg stated bluntly

"That's because I've lost contact with them"

The trio turned to find Heimdall approaching them.

"What do you mean?" Thor asked/demanded

"Something has occurred on Svartalfheim that has… 'Obscured' my sight" Heimdall begrudgingly admitted "I do not what it is, but it is a form of sorcery I have never encountered"

"Then we must make our way to the Bifrost Bridge and rescue our friends" Thor said firmly

"I agree but what of Asgard" Volstagg said, his head gesturing upwards. Several skiffs were pursuing harrows, trying to shoot them down.

"My father is more than capable of leading our people in times like these"

"SIRE"

Now their attention was on a young Asgardian, trying to catch his breath.

"What is it young one" Hogun asked calmly

"It's…*WHEEZE*…The outskirts…*PANT…sir Hogun" The young warrior finally looked up, terror and panic on his face "Sirs, the Dark Elves of Svartalfheim are invading Asgard"

"WHAT?!" All four men including those that heard this declaration yelled in complete shock

"Now I remember" Heimdall's expression dawned realization "These are the same ships used during the previous convergence war. I thought they were all destroyed"

"Sadly, they are not" Thor said, bearer of bad news and all

"What shall we do now" Hogun said, looking to Thor

"We must rally the warriors" Thor said quickly "Lead them against the Dark Elves and repel them. We cannot allow them to reach the palace"

"Why would they attack now? And here of all places" Volstagg asked in complete bewilderment

"They would have no other reason to attack Asgard other than…" Thor's eyes changed into one of horror

"Jane" He whispered, gripping his hammer tightly now

"She is well" Heimdall said, stopping Thor from flying off "Your mother is taking care of her in her quarters with a contingency of our finest guards. Right now, your duty is in leading the armies of Asgard in repelling the Dark Elves"

Thor momentarily paused before quickly nodding in agreement

"Yes, I shall do just that" Thor looked to his friends "Volstagg, Hogun"

"You needn't ask Thor" Volstagg said, holding up his axe.

Hogun simply placed his mace on his shoulder, nodding.

Thor gave them both grateful looks before addressing Heimdall.

"Heimdall, you must get the others out of Svartalfheim" Thor said gravely "I fear for their lives. I trust them, but that is a place where even my father and grandfather feared to venture"

"I will do what I must, Thor" Heimdall said strongly

With nothing left to say, Thor flew into the air while Heimdall teleported back to the Bifrost and Volstagg and Hogun ran after Thor, heading right towards the battle.

Thor arrived first obviously and instantly was filled with grief and rage.

The area was littered with fallen Asgardian warriors.

Thor saw up ahead that Asgardians were running towards down harrows that held Dark Elf garrisons. Some Dark elves held necromorph guns while others stuck to the traditional spears and swords(Enchanted to kill Asgardians obviously).

Thor wasted little time. Twirling Mjolnir, Thor threw out his hammer arm and rocketed towards the onslaught of dark elves. He instantly created a great amount of space between the Asgardian and Svartalfheim forces. This reprieve was enough for the golden armored men to reform into a solid wall of attack.

Shields in front and spears pointed forward, Asgards soldiers plowed through the disoriented Dark elf troops, impaling them on their weapons.

Volstagg and Hogun soon joined in with a battalion of other warriors, clashing with the Dark Elves.

Heimdall meanwhile had fought his way back to Bifrost bridge and inserted Hofund back into the control slot. Heimdall closed his eyes, activating another shield, surrounding the dome of the Bifrost.

The watcher channeled and focused his power, drawing in all the power within and around him to his eyes and blade. He reached out and at last saw them.

The reconnaissance company was desperately trying to keep the Dark Elves at bay.

Two of the Asgardian warriors were already dead.

Heimdall knew he needed to act fast and now. But there was still that block that prevented him from reaching out and rescuing the team.

He k new now wasn't the time to get frustrated. Asgard needed all of its fine warriors here and now.

So Heimdall stood still and began concentrating all of his power and the Bifrost into one point.

Svartalfheim

Things weren't looking so good.

Sure the Spartans had only consumed 20 percent of their ammo thanks to their training and the Asgardians had practically limitless stamina but they were beginning to get overwhelmed.

Two had already fallen thanks to a combined effort of no more than thirty Dark Elves.

The rest thought they could do the same with remainder of the outsiders yet they couldn't thanks to all of their combined efforts.

Jorge, Emile and Higan were the real heavy hitters of the group, keeping a large portion of the elves at bay.

"This getting out of hand" Fandral panted, parrying a dark elf before stabbing it in the head "We are getting nowhere with all this fighting"

"I just don't understand why Heimdall didn't answer my calls" Cuyler grunted, hitting a dark elf back a bit before, with lightning speed, grabbing an arrow, pulling it back on the string and hitting the elf dead center, right between the eyes.

"There's obviously some kind of interference" Jorge said, his minigun ablaze at the moment, shredding apart the Dark elves in his line of sight. By this point, he really didn't even have to aim thanks to the abundance of clustered targets

"Well if you guys want, you can all go on ahead" Emile said, his savageness matched only by the legions of Dark Elves attacking them all "I'm having way to much fun here"

To emphasize his point, Emile pounced onto several elves at once and slashed all of their throats in one precise slash with his Kukri. He then pulled out a plasma grenade in each hand and tossed it where ever since the Dark Elves were so bunched up together.

The explosion killed a multitude of the enemy forces, burning through bodies. Any Dark elf close to the twin plasma explosions also suffered from scorching burns and pains.

"This is still getting us nowhere" Sif said, feeling some exhaustion. She impaled to Dark elves with her double edged spear sword through their stomachs. Utilizing her super strength, she lifted them both into the air, slammed them into other Elves and swung her sword hard enough for them to slide off and fly through the air, colliding with other Dark Elves.

One Dark elf managed to unclip a familiar silver sphere and tossed it right in the center of the group.

"LOOK OUT" Higan shouted, shoving aside Fandral and Sif.

The sphere detonated and what they saw was morbid. Higan and the two Asgardians next to him got sucked into a swirling mass of darkness before they were literally crushed to death.

"NO" Fandral shouted

"THAT'S WHAT THEY DO?!" Emile shouted. He was not happy to find out the function of those silver spheres at the cost of three comrades. There was now only six fighting.

Jorge, Emile, Sif, Fandral, Brynjar and Cuyler.

"Time for them to get a taste of their own medicine" Emile growled, pulling out several of the black hole grenades he had. There were actually two types he held. One was silver and egg shaped while one was black and more rectangular with a red line glowing in the center.

He activated them all at once and tossed them into the growing sea of Dark Elves.

Multiple Dark elves were caught in the pull of the grenades and soon they were all pulled in and crushed into oblivion.

More of the grenades scatter.

"Get them" Emile shouted, already scooping up a handful "These will be useful in keeping them back"

Just as the other five quickly collected a large sum of the scattered dark hole grenades, a small boom was heard. Then…

"The Bifrost" Fandral said with relief as the six were surrounded by its welcoming light and in seconds were transported back to Asgard.

"Heimdall" Fandral said grateful "Thank you for getting us out of that dreary world"

"We cannot celebrate your return just yet" Heimdall said sagely "There are other more important matters to attend to"

As he finished that sentence, the structure the survivors and Heimdall stood in quaked after hearing the sounds of bombardment on the outside.

"So" Sif said looking ahead to where the rainbow bridge lead to Asgard "The Dark Elves have invaded?"

"Let's get to it" Emile said

"But how are we going to get there?" Brynjar questioned

"That is what I am here for" Heimdall said "Though it may delay my time in repelling the Dark Elves, you are needed more in the palace then you are here"

Not wasting any more time are waiting for questions, Heimdall slammed his blade down. A golden light surrounded the six warriors and Spartans and a moment later they were gone.

Meanwhile

Malekith strode casually through the commotion of Asgard, the civilians seemingly ignoring his very existence. Many were being guided by Asgard guardians towards the safe haven of the palace that was currently being protected by the golden shield.

The accursed casually walked towards the shield borders, examining its every detail.

On the other side, Odin himself was leading Asgards forces against the Dark Elves using the same weapon his father had used during the previous war on Svartalfheim. GunGir, the symbol of power for the kings of the nine realms was held horizontally by Odin as he fired its powerful beam that completely obliterated any and all dark elves that were unfortunate enough to be in its way.

Malekith began channeling his dark energy throughout his body, a sickly green and black aura exuding off of him. His eyes became pitch black. The energy then traveled into his right hand. He reared back his fist, pausing momentarily.

He then smirked and delivered the punch.

The shield disintegrated within seconds.

If there wasn't any panic before, it has now increased tenfold as Asgardians scrambled to return to the palace and hold the defenses. What was worse was now the Harrows stopped their dogfights with the skiffs and now focused on the palace itself.

Many of the harrows got shot down before they could get even close to the palace. One on the other hand did. And this Harrow was particularly large because its main focus was troop transport.

And not just any Dark Elves. These were the elite of the elite in Svartalfheim, those that survived alongside Malekith after the first war of the Aether.

They wore heavy armor, spike gauntlets, carried a type of plasma rifle and sword that did not have the power of the covenant weaponry but was still nonetheless deadly.

The harrow smashed right into the hall of the kings court, destroying multiple pillars and crushing numerous fleeing bystanders and soldiers.

After many spins and pillars getting knocked down by those spins, the Harrow came to a halt.

Palace guards surrounded the craft in a bit of a sloppy formation, yet they knew they must stand strong and be prepared to expunge the invaders.

The whole area and scene lapsed into a brief period of silence. No movements. No noise. Just the eerie calm before the storm.

Then the assault came. Dark Elves burst out and the battle began.

Thor in the meantime successfully brought down one of the T-shaped dark elf flagships though it took longer than expected.

Jorge, Emile, Sif, Fandral, Brynjar and Cuyler had finally joined the battle giving a huge boost in moral. Seeing that the warriors three had reunited, Sif, the war goddess and the two Spartans were all fighting as one alongside Thor caused the troops to conjure up their second wind, successfully driving back the Dark elf landing forces.

The Asgardian cannons and skiffs began picking off Fleeing Harrows one at a time.

Thor landed next to his Spartan allies.

"My friends" Thor greeted "It is good to see you safe and well"

"So little faith in your fellow Avengers?" Jorge asked rhetorically

Thor smirked for a moment

"I must ask, Jorge" Thor, now serious "What exactly happened on Svartalfheim?"

"It was a trap, plain and simple" Emile answered, sheathing his Kukri

"They knew that someone was going to come and investigate as to why Heimdall could no longer see or hear what was occurring on that realm" Emile said "Once we got there, that's when the link went completely dark and Heimdall couldn't even here us call for his name"

"TO THE PALACE" A Soldier abruptly shouted, running right into the middle of the Asgardian cluster of warriors.

He shouted more frantically

"RETURN TO THE PALACE" He yelled "DARK ELVES ARE IN OUR HALLS, DESTROYING AND KILLING EVERYTHING"

Now everyone was alarmed

"Thor" Jorge said

"I know"

The thunder god twirled his hammer while Jorge grasped Thor's free arm tightly with Emile doing the same with Jorge.

The trio zoomed upwards, right towards the gaping hole created by the Harrow that crashed into the castle.

"THROW US" Emile shouted, already seeing the battle that was taking place

Knowing that they would survive and have endured worse. 'Lightly' tossing them, Nobles Four and Five smashed right into several elite Dark Elves, effectively crushing all the bones in their body. Normally, they 'might have' survived a hit like that. Then again, they were brought down by 1000 pound armored Spartans that were tossed by Thor who gave Caps throwing arm a good challenge every time the Avengers fought alongside one another.

No one noticed the single Dark elf that casually walked away from the battle. This Dark Elf was black skinned(You obviously know who this is, he just isn't Kursed) and wore the elite armor of his people. Using his advanced senses, the Dark Elf followed the energy trail left behind by the Aether, coming from its human host.

Algrim rounded a corner and encountered to palace guards. Startled, the guards tried to attack which resulted in their deaths. Algrim quickly shot out his hands, grabbing both their necks. They struggled only briefly before their bodies began to decay. A moment later, dead husks wore the golden armor.

Smirking evilly, Algrim tossed aside the decayed bodies like they were garbage, continuing to follow the trail.

Back with the Spartans, they were proving more than a match for the elite of Svartalfheim. Though the Spartans showed almost no surprise when their shields were down to 75%. These were superhuman beings after all, so it was only natural that they provided a great challenge for them.

Emile proved to be the greatest bane to the Dark Elves since he knew the greatest weapons in their arsenal were attached on their chests and thighs. Noble Four easily snatched up the dark hole grenades from the elves, sometimes, intercepting armed grenades and tossing them right back at their senders.

Jorge switched from using his minigun to simply fighting the Dark Elves in CQC. Since they were superhuman, Jorge held no qualms in holding back. He unleashed the full power of his original Augmentations combined with his most recent ones. His suit tripled that power, shattering bones and muscles with every strike. Some of the armor of the Dark Elves held off some of the blows but after a few more hits, it was completely destroyed.

Thor simply smashed Mjolnir into the head of every Dark Elf, making quick work of the forces.

Abruptly, the remaining Dark elves were all vaporized by an intense laser that went through everyone. Yet miraculously, none of the guards were harmed. Instead only the invaders were killed off.

Thor already knew the origin of this beam.

"Father" Thor greeted

"You have done well my son" Odin complimented as the warriors to his sides rushed over to any palace guard that was injured. They were soon carried away towards the medical hall.

"Odin Sir" Jorge said respectfully "What is the situation outside?"

"The warriors Three and our War Goddess have successfully repelled the Dark Elf forces. The cost however is great"

"They shall be avenged" Thor said determinedly "Once we know the identity of the attacker he shall face the wrath of Asgard"

"As much as I am inclined to agree with you, my son" Odin said wisely "There is still a matter of finding the new head of the dark elves"

Elsewhere in the palace

Frigga and Jane were alone in Frigga's personal room. Frigga paced the room calmly, yet Jane easily saw that the queen was tense, ready for combat.

The doors than opened and in walked in two Dark Elves.

"Greetings my lady" The blue skinned Elf said exuberantly, giving the queen an overly dramatic mocking bow

"Who are you, creature"

The Dark elf tauntingly scowled "Such rude manners. What happened to the days of old where enemies would respect one another in giving their names before one kills the other"

"I will not ask again" Frigga said, now brandishing a short blade made for her. She pointed it right at the intruders.

"Very well" The being turned deadly serious, exuding killer intent yet that did nothing to falter Frigga's stance

"I am Malekith" The Dark Elf announced "Or would you prefer Malekith the Accursed, seeing as that is the name you Asgardians gave me. I do admit, it has a nice ring to it"

"You made a fatal mistake in returning, Malekith" Frigga said coldly that sent a chill down Algrim and Jane's spines "You should have stayed dead"

"Perhaps I should have" Malekith, now cool and collected "Sadly, I haven't returned the universe to darkness"

"And you never shall" Frigga said now circling Malekith as he did with her.

"Come now" Malekith taunted "I believe it would besmirch my reputation if I were to harm a queen"

"You are not fighting a queen" Frigga said coolly

Malekith and Algrim chose this moment to perform a double attack on Frigga. What they weren't expecting was the roundhouse kick that stopped them both on the spot, briefly touching their cheeks before sloppily deflecting Frigga's sword.

Frigga continued to attack, orchestrating her years of fighting experience, easily matching the two veteran dark elves.

She proceeded to punch and kick Algrim and Malekith's ass with proficient force and accuracy.

Frigga delivered a powerful kick to Algrims chest, knocking onto his back.

The queen then spun round, slashing Malekiths cheek. She elbowed him in the face causing him to stumble and trip over the small steps leading to the outside balcony. He propped himself onto his elbows and looked up to see Frigga hold the tip of her sword to his neck, under his chin.

"You are beaten Accursed" Frigga said triumphantly "You should have stayed in your dead world where you rightfully belong"

"It is quite a lovely place to be" Malekith said casually "Especially this time of the millennia"

Before Frigga could say anymore, she was suddenly grabbed by a powerful grip from behind and hefted up into the air. Algrim managed to immobilized by keeping one arm around her neck and the other held her arms behind her back.

Algrim had become a Kursed. However he used his own power to grow into a hybrid of sorts. The magma like skin of a Kursed was only visible on his face, specifically on and around his eyes.

Malekith gave Frigga a smug face, getting up as if nothing happened.

He then finally set his eyes upon Jane Foster who was peeking out from a pillar.

Knowing that it was futile to run, Jane stepped out, giving the Dark elf an unfaltering gaze.

Malekith responded with a disappointed face.

"This is the carrier of the Aether" He said with boredom. He then sighed "Still, I applaud you mortal for your endurance in keeping that power at bay for so long"

Malekith went up to Jane with his hand outstretched, ready to summon the Aether out of the host, yet.

Malekith now held confused expression. He then made to touch Jane when his hand passed right through her.

Jane completely vanished, but that wasn't the most shocking factor.

What shocked Malekith was he could no longer sense the Aether. Algrim even took note of it as he began looking around to see if he could find any kind of scent of the Aether.

Malekith seethed, looking back at Frigga

"WITCH" Malekith shouted, Frigga just smirked at the elf

"Where is the Aether?!" Malekith demanded now clutching her face

Frigga freed herself from Malekiths grip, giving him a spiteful glare.

"I will tell you nothing"

Malekith hissed in rage before composing himself. He exhaled, not taking his eyes off Frigga.

"I believe you" Malekith nodded his head at Algrim

Algrims gauntlet shot out two spikes and he stabbed Frigga in the back.

"NNOOOO"

Malekith looked over to the entrance only to have the entire left half of his face be struck by a powerful bolt of lightning.

Malekith fell, unconsciously clutching his burnt face.

Algrim knelt down and scooped up his fallen leader, running away from Thor who was joined by Jorge and Emile. The two Spartans began firing away at the fleeing Dark Elves.

Algrim summoned a shield using his knowledge of sorcery to deflect the bullets the Spartans fired. It was not, however, strong enough to defend against a Mjolnir being thrown at the speed of sound. The hammer shattered the ethereal construct, running right into Algrim who clutched his fallen leader as they sailed over the railings.

It seemed as though the two had fallen to their deaths. It was not to be as a Harrow rose up from hiding and turned tailed, flying back to Malekiths flagship.

Jorge and Emile activated a new feature in their armor. Dual rockets appeared on both their shoulders. These rockets were powerful enough to take out Covenant Seprahs.

Thor threw a thunder charged Mjolnir while Jorge and Emile unleashed their rockets. Their projectiles were blocked by Harrows that sacrificed themselves in order for their leader to escape the failed attempt at recovering the Aether.

"DAMN" Emile growled, slamming his fist down onto the stone railing, causing cracks to appear

Thor on the other hand slowly turned back to where his mother lay. He walked two steps when Odin came in followed by a group of guards.

The king of Asgard stopped in his tracks the moment he saw Frigga.

His footsteps were silent as he walked over to Frigga. He dropped down to his knees and gently placed his hands under her head and back, picking her up as if she was so fragile she would shatter. Odin held her close to him, his face completely blank but one could see in his eyes the sorrow and the shock of losing his love.

Jane came out from her hiding spot, having seen the whole thing. Silent tears streamed down her face as she went right to Thor, embracing him. Thor wrapped one arm around her, holding her close.

Nighttime

The entire city was silent, it's golden radiance lost.

All of Asgards men, women and children assembled at the shores of Asgard.

Some held glowing spheres of starlight radiance. The soldiers all stood up front at the bottom right at the shore.

Odin stood atop a pedestal with his son Thor to his side. With Thor was his lover Jane and the Warriors three, Sif and the Spartans.

Jorge and Emile stood like statues, their helmets off as a sign of respect. Odin looked back to see the canal that lead to the fountain at the entrance to the palace. The canal branched off in many directions that lead to many areas of Asgard.

Tonight though, all pathways were closed except for one. The path that lead into the sea that ended in the waterfall.

In the one lane of the small canal, one boat floated in the direction of the sea, holding one queen.

Not a single word was spoken as the queen's tomb swam by. Only tears.

The queens boat soon reached the seat, getting further and further from Asgard.

Odin tilted his head slightly to the right

Cuyler wordlessly notched a flaming arrow, pulled back and fired. The arrow hit Frigga's boat, setting it ablaze. The fire danced around the queen.

Soon more fire arrows reigned down from the skies, alighting an entire fleet of small boats. Some contained a singular individuals, others held families that perished in the attack.

As Frigga reached the edge of the sea, Odin lifted Gungnir and slammed it down. The thud was heard all across Asgard and even the Nine Realms.

Frigga's boat instead of falling continued on its small voyage(It's the scene from the Dark World, we all know how it goes down).

The boat continues to drift beyond the water until her spirit itself rises from the boat and flies into the cosmos like thousands of scattering stars.

This in turn made all those who held the starlight orbs lift them in to the air. The orbs floated upwards. The entire city was now surrounded by these glowing spheres.

In his cell, Loki's reading is interrupted by the arrival of a guard. The guard passes him news of Frigga's death. Loki inclines his head; dismissing the guard. Then he calmly places his book on the small round table before him, moves to the center of the room and clenches his fists at his side, releasing a burst of telekinetic energy that sends his furniture flying.

Scene cut

Jorge and Emile sat alone in a tavern, their helmets removed and both were idly holding pints of alcohol in hand.

Emile held a thoughtful expression while Jorge remained blank.

"You know" Emile started "I thought we were here to help out Thor, 'fulfilling our duty as new Avengers. First day on the job, and the queen is dead. That sure leaves a warm fuzzy feeling, doesn't it?"

"Not now, Four" Jorge said in a bored tone, with laced steel

"I see you two are drinking your problems away" A strong feminine voice said

The duo didn't bother to look up as Lady Sif sat across from Jorge.

"Mind if I join you?"

"Hey, this is your home realm" Jorge shrugged "Can't really say anything against it"

Sif gave a sad smile. The comment cheered her up slightly, but the death of the queen and so many comrades and innocent civilians remained a heavy burden.

The barkeeper wordlessly came up to Sif and gave her a full Pint, giving her a pat on her shoulder.

"Being the war goddess has its perks I see" Emile wryly said

"It helps" Sif said moodily

"I thought you would be with Odin and his war council" Jorge said

"Right now" Sif sighed, downing the pint in one go "I just need a drink"

"Or five" Emile chuckled

"Is there room for one more?"

"You are the prince of Asgard, Thor" Emile humored "We couldn't stop you even if we tried"

Thor opted not to respond. Instead he more or less threw himself down on the empty chair beside Emile.

"What's going on back at the castle?" Jorge asked

"My father saw fit to take Jane to a secluded corner of the palace during his war council" Thor said bitterly

"Never knew your dad can be such a prick" Emile said nonchalantly, getting a smack upside the head from Jorge

"You did not need to harm him, Five" Thor said with a twinkle in his eye

"No, I just felt like doing it" Jorge waved off while Emile grumbled something incoherent

"This looks like a more livelier set of friends"

Heimdall approaches and takes a seat at his table, removing his helmet in the process.

"You're not in Odin's war council?" Thor inquired

"The Bifrost is closed by your father's orders. No one is to come or to go. We face an enemy that is invisible even to me. What use is a guardian such as that?" Heimdall explained

"What point is there in closing the Bifrost if those elves don't need it" Jorge pointed out the obvious

"Malekith will return, you know this. But we need your help" Thor followed

"I cannot over-rule my King's wishes. Not even for you" Heimdall said, though there was an odd way he phrased it

"I'm not asking you to" Thor said right away "The realms need their Allfather strong and unchallenged, whether he is or not. But he is blinded, Heimdall. By hatred and by grief"

"As are we all" The watcher of Asgard said sagely

"Well I see clearly enough" Thor said resolutely

"The risks are too great."

"I think this conversation right now is a risk" Jorge observed

"Everything we do from here on is a risk" Thor nods to Jorge in agreement "There is no other way"

Heimdall considers Thor's words.

"What do you require of me?" He asks after a moment

"What I'm about to ask of you is treason of the highest order. Success will bring us exile and failure shall mean our death. Malekith knew the Aether was here, he can sense its power. If we do nothing he will come for it again, but this time lay waste to all of Asgard."

"My kind of plan" Emile grins, leaning in to listen

Sequence during Thor's plan

Thor has called his closest friends to a secret meeting. Hogun, Fandral and Volstagg have now joined Heimdall, Jorge, Emile and Sif to hear Thor's plan.

"We must move Jane off-world" Thor starts

"That's a great plan" Emile said dryly

"Emile, for the love of god" Jorge said with annoyance

"The Bifrost has been shut down and the Tesseract, our only other method off Asgard is locked away in the vault" Sif stated

"There are other paths off Asgard. Ways known only to a few" Heimdall advised

"One, actually" Thor whimsically said

There a pause of confusion until his comrades realized Thor is meaning to enlist in Loki's help.

"You don't mean" Emile said darkly

"No" Volstagg said in disbelief

Scene shift

In the Dungeons, Thor approaches Loki's cell. Loki walks towards the energy barrier to meet him.

"Thor After all this time, and now you come to visit me. Why?" Loki greeting his adopted brother mockingly "Have you come to gloat? To mock?

"Loki enough" Thor interrupted "No more illusions"

Loki closes his eyes and bends his head, disappearing with a ripple of magic. The illusion of a neat tidy cell drops away, to show a room scattered with upturned furniture, and Loki sitting against the opposite wall. His foot bleeding, his clothing torn, his hair a mess.

"Now you see me brother" Loki croaks

Thor approaches him from the other side of the barrier

"Did she suffer?"

"I did not come here to share our grief" Thor steely replied "Instead I offer you the chance of a far richer sacrament"

Loki tilted his head in interest "Go on"

"I know you seek vengeance as much as I do" Thor said knowingly "You help me escape Asgard and I will grant it to you; vengeance. And afterward, this cell"

Loki chuckles at the situation "You must be truly desperate to come to me for help. What makes you think you can trust me?"

"I don't. Mother did" Thor said resolutely "But you should know that when we fought each other in the past, I did so with the glimmer of hope that my brother was still in there somewhere. That hope no longer exists to protect you. You betray me and I will kill you"

Loki smiled "When do we start?"

Flashing back to the meeting, Thor's discussion continues with his comrades.

"He will betray you" Hogun advised

"He will try" Thor said tiredly

"Can I kill him if he tries?" Emile asked, his tone suggesting he was very serious

Scene cut

Freed from prison, Loki and Thor walk down a wide plaza lined with pillars.

"This is so unlike you, brother. So clandestine" Loki said excitedly with a taunting edge "Are you sure you wouldn't rather just punch your way out?"

"If you keep speaking I just might"

"Fine. As you wish. I'm not even here"

Loki shape-shifts into an Einherjar guard.

"Is this better?"

"It's better company at least"

"Still, we could be less conspicuous"

Loki changes back into his own form, and transforms Thor into Sif.

"Mmm brother, you look ravishing"

Thor looks down at his feminine boy before replying in his own voice.

"It will hurt no less when I kill you in this form"

"Very well. Perhaps you prefer one of your Avenger companions, given that you seem to like them so much"

Loki now morphs into Captain America.

"Oh, this is much better. Whoa! Costume's a bit much, it's so tight! But the confidence! I can feel the righteousness surging! Hey, wanna have a rousing discussion about truth, honor, patriotism? God bless America…"

"Loki" Thor growled out

"Better yet, how about one of your newest comrades"

Loki once again shape-shifts, this time into Noble Six

"WOW, now this is something else. The height, the intimidation and the strength. My god the unbreakable will is exhilarating. This is truly incredible. I feel like I'm ready to conquer the nine realms now…"

Thor suddenly grabs Loki and slams him into a pillar, a palm pressed against his mouth. Loki shifted back to his regular self

"What?" Loki asks after he's released

Thor turns in the direction of two soldiers walking along the plaza.

"You can at least furnish me with a weapon" Loki argued "My dagger, something!"

Thor looks at him and the sound of sliding metal can be heard. Loki smiles.

"At last, a little common sense"

Loki looks down just as Thor snaps on a pair of handcuffs. He holds them up with a disbelieving expression

"I thought you liked tricks" Thor laughs and continues onwards.

Back to the meeting Thor holds with his friends.

"But what then?" Fandral argues "Your lovely mortal is being guarded by a legion of Einherjar guards who will see you coming from miles away"

"I won't be the one who comes for her"

Thor turns and looks to Sif.

Scene cut to Jane's location

An Einherjar guard open the door of JANE'S CHAMBER for another guard who is carrying a meal for her. She looks up, clearly unhappy.

"I'm not hungry"

Sif enters behind the guards and knocks them both out.

"Good. Let's go"

Sif escorts Jane though the palace to where Thor waits with Loki. As Jane sees Loki, she draws ahead of Sif.

"You're –" She points at him, getting right in front of him

"I'm Loki. You may have heard of me"

Jane smacks him across the face.

"That was for New York" She stated proudly

Loki laughs, and looks to Thor.

"I like her"

Flashback to Thor's meeting.

"And what about your father, Thor?" Jorge asks

"It is my sworn duty to notify him of crimes against authority" Heimdall now speaks

Scene cut to Heimdall in his observatory

Heimdall is at his post in the observatory. Odin enters, accompanied by four of his Einherjar guards.

"You called me here on an urgent matter. What is it?"

"Treason, my lord."

"Whose?"

"Mine"

Heimdall pulls his great sword out from the control panel of the observatory. The movement causes the guards to step towards him, though he lays it across his palm in surrender. At that moment, Captain of the guard, Tyr, enters.

"My king, the mortal has been taken"

Tyr looks to Heimdall. Odin follows his gaze, realization dawning. Heimdall stands his ground, silent. Odin speaks to Tyr, but continues to hold Heimdall's gaze as he does so.

"Stop Thor. By any means necessary"

Tyr leaves, flanked by two guards. We are now left to assume Heimdall is taken into custody.]

In the palace, guards locate and approach Thor, Sif, Loki and Jane from the other side of the plaza.

"There they are! Take them!" A guard spotted and shouted

"On my command" the head guard commanded

Thor steps towards them, but is stopped by Sif.

"I'll hold them off. Take her."

"Thank you." Thor says "Be sure to come to our aid if we call"

The Einherjar draw their swords as Thor ushers Jane away. Loki turns to follow but is stopped by Sif's blade at his throat.

"Betray him, and I'll kill you" She threatened venomously

Loki laughed "It's good to see you too, Sif"

Sif withdraws her blade as Loki saunters away, and turns to face the guards, she swings her sword as she prepares herself to face them, and it transforms into its double-bladed sword form.

Flashback to Thor's meeting.

"Assuming you can get Loki's help and you can free this mortal, what good would it do? We'd all be dead the minute we step one foot outside the palace." Volstagg said

"That, my friend, is why we won't be leaving by foot"

Scene cut

Thor, Loki and Jane walk across the palace throne room to the crashed Harrow Ship from which Algrim rode in on earlier. Volstagg, Hogun, Emile and Jorge stands waiting for them.

"We shall give you as much time as we can" Hogun said

"Thank you my friends" Thor says, grateful and all

Volstagg and Jane nod to each other while Hogun bowed his head in respect. As Loki passes, Volstagg stops him. Hogun merely grips his mace tighter, not taking his eyes off Loki.

"If you even think about betraying him…"

"You'll kill me?" Loki said mockingly "Evidently, there will be a line"

Within the Dark Elf Harrow ship, Thor starts pushing random buttons. Emile eyes Loki intensely, making the mischief maker slightly uncomfortable.

"I thought you said you knew how to fly this thing" Loki, addressing Thor

"I said. 'how hard could it be?'" Thor rebutted

Einherjar soldiers are now jogging in pursuit. They reach the plaza where Volstagg and Hogun stand before the Harrow Ship, double-headed axe held ready while Hogun placed his mace to his side

"They're on the ship! Get to the ship!" The guards charge the two

Volstagg and Hogun begin fighting them, using only methods that would render the guards unconscious.

On board the Harrow Ship.

"Well, whatever you're doing brother, I suggest you do it faster" Loki said

"Shut up, Loki"

"You must have missed something"

"No, I didn't. I'm pressing every button on this thing" Thor counters, pressing even more buttons

"Should we-"

"No Four, let him figure it out"

"No don't hit it. Just press it gently" Loki deadpans

Thor begins thumping buttons in irritation "I am pressing it gently! It's not working!"

The lights and internal displays come on as the engine starts up.

"Ha ha!"

Volstagg and Hogun are still fighting soldiers, but they are overcoming them. Hogun's arms are grabbed and he is now pinned down. All that's left is Volstagg

"Get him! Get him!" A soldier commanded as the remaining guards began to swarm the warrior

Volstagg manages to hold them all back with a triumphant 'HAHA', which immediately turns into a comical oh no as they start to bring him down

At last Thor figures out the controls for the Harrow Ship, and it begins to slowly rotate, taking out palace columns along the way.

"I think you missed a column" Loki jabs

"Shut up!"

The Harrow Ship lifts off and bursts through a palace wall, twisting and swooping through the city of Asgard.

"Look, why don't you let me take over? I'm clearly the best pilot" Loki reasons

"Is that right? Well, out of the two of us, which one can actually fly.

As Thor maneuvers the Harrow Ship through the city, Jane faints to the floor. Jorge kneels down to check up on her

"Oh dear. Is she dead?" Loki asks

"You will be soon enough" Emile said, now sharpening his knife while Thor continues to fly the Harrow

"Are you still on about that?" Loki said in annoyed tone. He shut up when Emile just looked at him with his skull helmet

"Jane!" Thor says in distress

"I'm okay" Jane murmurs as she's put into a sitting position by Jorge

"Easy" Jorge said "Try not to move too much…or think for that matter"

Jane manages a weak smile at Jorge's wit just as Thor swoops too close to a building and takes off to the top of it. Loki starts to open his mouth.

"Not a word" Thor 'advises'

Three of Asgard's flying skiffs are on their tail.

"Now they're following us" Loki says to the left of Thor

The skiffs begin firing.

"Now they're firing at us!" Loki says to the right of Thor

Yes, thank you for the commentary, Loki, it's not at all distracting!" Thor said irritably

"Can I kill him yet" Emile growled to Jorge

"Not yet"

As they swoop towards a tunnel, the wing of the Harrow Ship slices through the neck of a huge stone statue of King Bor.

"Well done. You just decapitated your grandfather" Loki said casually causing Thor to look back with a slight cringe

They exit the city and now fly over water, parallel to a bridge stretching towards distant mountains.

"You know, this is wonderful. This is a tremendous idea" Loki begins patronizing the lot "Let's steal the biggest, most obvious ship in the universe and escape in that. Flying around the city, smashing into everything in sight so everyone can see us. It's brilliant, Thor! It's truly brilliant!"

"Now you can push him" Thor said to Emile

"Finally"

"What?"

Emile is right in front of Loki placing his hand on his chest.

"Enjoy the ride jackass"

Noble Four shoves Loki as he begins plummets, screaming.

"Let's hope that it can hold us both" Jorge comments

"They can carry me" Thor says as he picks up Jane and jumps after Loki/

Emile and Jorge glance at one another before doing the same

Thor lands upon a flying skiff driven by Fandral, as Loki is climbing to his feet. Jorge and Emile use their built in thrusters to steady their landing

Fandral laughs as Loki stands "I see your time in the dungeons has made you no less graceful, Loki"

Loki ignores him and looks up to the Harrow Ship which veers to their right, towards a mountain range, and with the three skiffs still in pursuit.

"You lied to me" Loki states the obvious before genuinely saying "I'm impressed"

"I'm glad you're pleased" Thor said, rolling his eyes "Now, do as you promised. Take us to your secret pathway"

Loki takes hold of the tiller and begins grinning in genuine glee. Until now they've traveled alongside the bridge, but just above the waterline. Now they have to veer to the right, and this brings them to the attention of another Asgardian skiff, which gives chase and begins firing. Loki weaves from left to right to avoid laser-fire, then lifts the skiff higher to bring them in line with his secret pathway.

"Fandral"

"See you on the flip side" Emile said respectfully to the swordsman as they both shook hands

"Right" Fandral looks to Thor "For Asgard"

"Fandral takes hold of a rope and drops off the edge of the skiff, using the rope to swing onto the pursuing skiff."

"Nothing personal, boys" Fandral says just before he knocks the soldiers out, then salutes to Thor.

Loki now steers the skiff to a rocky mountain peak, where a very small narrow cave can just be seen.

"Loki…"

"It if were easy, everyone would do it" Loki says wildly, his maniacal grin not leaving his face

"Oh boy" Jorge grumbles as he sits down, holding onto the edge of the skiff

"Are you mad?" Thor said, now leaning down to protect Jane

"Possibly"

Loki steers the skiff into the cave. It is so narrow that the edges of the skiff smash against the walls of the tunnel/cave. Iridescent crystals can be seen on the walls of the cave, and as they whizz through, the crystals light up with the same effect as that of the Bifrost. Everything blurs.

The skiff exits the cave/tunnel and ricochets off the black sands of Svartalfheim

"Ta-da" Loki said dryly

With Malekith

Malekith sat on a chair reminiscent to a throne. His wounds have healed, as for his face on the other hand. One side still held his original blue skin. The other half on the other hand was now pitch black. The difference was literally divided right down the middle of his face.

"We could do nothing to heal your other half my liege" Algrim spoke in their native language

"Leave it be" Malekith said sinisterly. He held his head up for Algrim to see his new face. There was an evil smile held there "I rather like this new me"

"What of Asgard?" Algrim questioned "They are currently rattled by our appearance. Now would be the right time to strike"

"No" Malekith slurred, a glazed expression now displayed. It soon morphed into one of wicked and malicious satisfaction "The Aether has returned to us"

Upon the dead realm of SVARTALFHEIM, Thor's skiff glides over dead plains and broken cities. He places a cover over Jane, who is still unconscious. Loki watches and shakes his head.

"What I could do with the power that flows through those veins" Loki pondered

"It would consume you"

"And you've already failed using a power like that once before" Emile snarkly added

Loki gave him an irritated look at being reminded of his failure with conquering the world using the Tesseract and the scepter.

"She's holding up alright. For now" Loki said after a moment

"She's strong in ways you'd never even know" Thor said with a strained fondness, his concern for her well being evident

"Say goodbye"

"Not this day.

"This day, the next, a hundred years, it's nothing. It's a heartbeat. You'll never be ready. The only woman whose love you prized will be snatched from you" Loki vehemently states with force

"And will that satisfy you?" Thor retorts

"You'd be surprised what satisfies him" Emile subtly insulted "After all, we shared so many secrets when you possessed me"

"Satisfaction is not in my nature" Loki shot back at Four

"Surrender is not in mine" Thor said strongly

"The son of Odin…" Loki mocked

"No. Not just of Odin" The thunder god responds with a rising tone

Thor rises and steps towards Loki.

"You think you alone were loved of Mother? You had her tricks, but I had her trust"

"Trust? Was that her last expression?" Loki said incredulously "Trust? When you let her die?"

"What help were you in your cell?" Emile snapped at the god

"Who put me there?" Loki now shouted at Emile then at Thor "Who put me there!"

Thor leaps towards Loki and knocks him back

"You know damn well. You know damn well who!"

Thor raises his fist to Loki but when Jorge grabs the Gods wrist and holds it in place. Thor faces Jorge who had removed his helmet. They locked eyes and five shook his head. Thor glanced back to Loki who still remained under his grip and sadly let him go.

"She wouldn't want us to fight" Thor somberly said

Loki thinks about this for a moment and his expression lightens.

"Well she wouldn't exactly be shocked"

The brother's half-laugh at each other

"I wish I could trust you" Thor said mirthfully

He turns from Loki, getting a friendly pat on the shoulder from his larger friend. Loki does not respond at first as he stares after him with an expression one could almost interpret as regret. Loki stands.

"Trust my rage" Loki whispers

The Skiff occupants turned silent, the only sound being heard is the gentle hum of the boat as it glides over the Dark world.

Emile, being Emile, chooses to return to his favorite pastime. Sharpening his knife.

"Do you ever do anything else besides that?" Loki asks, somewhat irritated by the constant scraping sound

"You were inside my head asshole" Emile says, keenly observing his prized weapon "Take a wild guess"

"I think I prefer your other friend" Loki said "What was his name again?"

"You know it" Emile got up this time and stood over Loki "But you have no right to say his name. That will only be Noble Six to you"

"Ah, but I do admit, Nathan is quite a unique name" Loki taunted "As is Emile"

Loki barely felt the wind graze over his cheek. But he knew it wasn't the win. The Spartans arm moved in such a blur he barely registered anything until his hand reached to touch his cheek. He felt liquid drip down and when he moved his hand in front of him…

"That's you're first strike" Emile said with venom "Two more left"

Emile then sat back down, sheeting his knife. The atmosphere was tense to say the least.

After some time, the skiff sails over an ancient dead Dark Elf city.

"Something is not right" Jorge said now moving to the front of the Skiff " When we were here, our group was getting swarmed by Dark Elves from all sides. You've made it clear before Thor that the population remained strong even after their defeat"

"They are hiding" Loki surmised "On account of Malekith's orders. They know we have the Aether so he probably made sure that they wouldn't try anything rash that may damage the host. Though he's doing it to play with us"

"What do you mean?" Thor asked sharply

"Come now brother" Loki scoffed "Even you aren't a big an oaf as I make you out to be"

"Doesn't matter if Jane dies" Emile stated "The Aether will survive"

"Indeed" Loki said thoughtfully "Malekith is toying with us"

"You sure are acting like you know a lot about this guy" Emile accuses, now standing before Loki again

"Of course I do" Loki responds without missing a beat "Unlike my brother who spent too much time swinging his hammer around I actually studied Asgards past enemies, the history of the nine realms, the patterns. I am well versed in my knowledge"

"But you lack the warriors courage" Thor said cynically

"AH yes" That hit a nerve "A warriors courage. Quite an obvious trait for tyrant kings"

Thor actually seethed at that "I will NEVER BE A TYRANT"

"Easy Thor" Jorge said getting between him and Thor

"Oh just let the guy punch him, Jorge" Emile complained "At least it'll keep me back from stabbing the fucker"

Before anyone could say anything else, Jane abruptly sits up. Her eyes were pitch black and she went to the edge of the front of the Skiff.

"Malekith" She mutters

All four men now looked ahead to see the Accursed personal ship land in the middle of an empty plain.

The skiff soon lands on a hill. The five companions stand, looking down at the assembled Dark elves, all behind their leader.

"Greetings Asgardians" Malekith says lavishly "I welcome you to my humble home"

"Geez, one sentence and I already want to gut the guy" Emile growled

"I hope I didn't call you on such a short accord" Malekith continued "But you possess something of mine that I wish for you to return to me…Now"

"Is everyone ready?" Thor asks the group, twirling his hammer once

Jane nods along with Emile who cocks his shotgun and Jorge who hefts up his minigun.

"You realize that if this plan of yours fails, then we're all going to die" Loki, ever the silver-tongued devil

"No shit" Emile quips

Loki than holds up his wrist handcuffs and Thor is obviously hesitant.

"You still don't trust me?"

"Is that a rhetorical question?" Jorge, shockingly enough was the one to ask

"No" Loki said in agreement as Thor removed the mans cuffs.

He secretly pulled out a hidden knife

"No I would not"

Loki then stabs Thor in the abdomen. Jane screams in horror as Loki tosses Thor downhill before quickly blasting back Jorge and Emile with magical blasts.

"Do you really think I cared about Frigga?" Loki was coming right towards Thor "About anybody? All I ever wanted was you and Odin, Dead at my feet"

Thor struggles to get his bearings together. He spots Mjolnir just lying just a few yards ahead of him. Thor reaches out to summon his hammer only for Loki to grab his arm and slice his hand clean off.

Thor writhes in pain, unable to anything as Loki tosses Jane at Malekith's feet.

"Malekith" Loki declares "I am Loki of Jotunheim, and I bring you a gift!"

Malekith arches a brow "And pray tell, what is it that you want in return? I know deals such as these are usually too good to be true"

"I ask for only one thing in return" Loki said savagely "A good seat from where I can watch Asgard burn"

Malekith and Loki assess one another. The accursed give Loki a welcoming grin.

"It would b e my pleasure"

Malekith then walks over to Thor

"Look at me" Malekith commands

Malekith nudges Thor with his foot. He rolls to his back with difficulty. Malekith sees his amputated hand and raises one arm. Jane levitates into the air. Loki and Thor watch as Malekith draws the Aether from Jane. Jane sees a vision of the universe turning to darkness. When the Aether leaves her body, she drops to the ground, the Aether temporarily hovers in the air between them.

"Loki! Now" Thor shouts

Loki drops the illusion surrounding the area. Thor changes back to normal, Mjolnir now in his hand and the surrounding dark elves save for Malekith and Algrim promptly die, courtesy of Nobles Four and Five who were also hidden by Loki's illusion.

Thor fires the strongest bolt of lightning he could muster right at the Aether. The Aether then explodes into tiny dust particles, a dust cloud flying up as well.

It was not be as the Aether particles began to rise and soon reformed into its original liquid state, hovering just over Malekith's hand.

"Oh that was truly pathetic" Malekith said as he moved his hand into the constantly morphing Aether. The Aether spreads out, surrounding Malekiths body. The red begins to seep into the accursed body and soon, Malekith's blue skin became red, giving an even more demonic look.

"Algrim" Malekiths voice was now deeper "See fit that they all die"

Algrim only nodded, now unleashing his full power. He morphed into a more monstrous form(Movie version) of himself with horns and everything.

Malekith used the Aether to propel himself to the top of his ship while more Dark elves began storming out of the ark.

Thor, Loki, Jorge and Emile moved to engage the enemy forces already taking out a handful each.

"We need to get to Malekith" Jorge shouts over his gunfire

"How exactly" Loki stabs a dark elf in the neck "His ship is already gone and there is no way off this rock with their magic able to block the Bifrost"

"We shall find a way" Thor yelled, bashing back Dark elf after dark elf while also keeping Jane close behind him

Emile in the meantime had chosen to single handedly engage Algrim by himself.

The two were surprisingly equally matched as Noble Four's speed out classed Algrims but he made up for it by holding more strength and durability.

Algrim deflected a kick from Emile and punched the Spartan back. The shields took a substantial amount of damage. This was the first time in quite a while that something like this reduced his shields down by 20%.

"Son of a bitch" Emile said, a jitter of excitement "About damn time I had a challenge"

Emile jumped up and hopped from side to side before throwing his arms out, igniting his wrist plasma blades.

"Been hoping I could put my training to the test" Emile said holding one of the blades up to his head "Let's see if you're up to the challenge"

Algrim simply growled back

Mjolnir was now a blur as it spun round at high speed. Thor was swinging his arm left and right, knocking back wave after wave of Dark Elves.

Jorge stood behind him, using his plasma incendiary rounds to demolish the Dark Elf forces

Loki was using his illusions and daggers to slay his opponents.

He paused when Emile was flung by him, knocking aside Dark Elves.

Loki saw Algrim covered with plasma burns all over his body. The mischief god eyed the creature intensely.

'So this is the creature that killed mother' Loki mentally thought with rage

Loki was suddenly shoved aside by Noble Four who charged at Algrim.

"My opponent pretty boy" Emile roared giving Algrim a deep plasma slash across his chest.

Algrim howled in pain before backhanding the Spartan away.

Thor now moved in to attack Algrim but was caught off guard by Algrims burst of strength. The Kursed dark elf now punched Thor to the ground before pounding him into a crater.

From out of nowhere, Algrim is impaled upon by a blade. The dark elf relents his beat down on Thor and turns to find Loki.

In swift retaliation, Algrim grabs Loki and impales him in turn.

"NO" Thor cries out

Algrim was ready to finish off Thor when he was once again impaled, this time by two plasma swords.

Algrim fell to his knees, clutching his burning and bleeding chest.

"Try getting up from that you son of a bitch" Emile growled as he pulled out his plasma swords. For added measure and overkill, Emile took out a plasma grenade and a dark hole grenade.

He activated the plasma first and then the dark hole grenade. He stuck the two together before shoving it onto Algrims head.

The first explosion blew Algrim to chunks before the second created the black hole that completely crushed Algrims remains into nothingness.

Thor found himself morbidly disturbed and intrigued and the creativity of how Emile killed Algrim.

Thor then realized his brother was clutching his chest, turning blue.

"You fool" Thor murmured in distress "You didn't listen"

"I know" Loki stuttered his breath becoming more shallow by the second "I- I was-I was a fool"

"Stay with me brother" Thor begs

"I'm sorry" Loki utters out

"The Allfather will know of your deeds"

"I never did it for him" Loki gasps out as he dies

Thor clutches Loki, screaming out in pain. Jane looks on sadly, while Jorge and Emile look to the direction where the sounds of a running army drew closer.

"Thor" Jorge said "We need to leave now!"

Thor glances up, now also hearing the coming forces. Remorsefully, Thor stops holding Loki's body and picks up Jane bridal-style. The trio begin running as fast as possible.

"Just one question" Emile said after running for nearly a dozen miles "How the hell are we gonna get off this rock?"

As if responding to Emile's question, the group runs right through a portal and end up in…

"Holy crap" Jane squirms out of Thor's arms "We're back in England! Back where I found the Aether"

"Wait, what the hell? How did we get here?" Emile demanded, trying to understand what just happened

"The convergence" Thor said with realization "The convergence is starting to affect Midgard"

"How bad is that?" Emile asks

"Now that Malekith holds the Aether and the convergence is reaching its height, Malekith can return the universe to darkness with no opposition"

"Well, fuck this just keeps getting better and better" Emile said "Then again, this is a Tuesday for us isn't it?"

"Uh guys" Jorge said, catching their attention "Is this part of the convergence?"

The four looked to the sky. In the far distance, portals began opening, showing the world that it can lead to if one enters.

"If I were to place a bet, that's where Malekith would go" Jorge surmises

"Than that is our destination" Thor declares

"Whoa. We can't just go right in there guns blazing" Emile said "We need reinforcements for this kind of job"

"Indeed" Thor agreed immediately

Thor pulled out his Avengers I.D. card and pressed on its communication button.

"This is Thor, fellow Avengers" Thor spoke into the card "I am requesting your assembly at, Jane where is this?"

"Greenwich"

"Aye, Greenwich, England" Thor spoke seriously "A great threat to the earth looms over the skies of this nation"

"We're on our way Thor" Ms. Marvel responded "ETA 30 minutes"

"Let's not waste any more time" Jorge said "Thor, we have to all get there at once"

"Verily" Thor nodded, holding his hammer aloft

Calling down his powers, the winds around the four started to rotate before becoming a sort of makeshift platform.

"ONWARD" Thor shouts pointing his hammer in the direction of the convergence portals.

They arrive at a university, stunning all the citizens who were wandering around, going about their business.

"You must all leave now" Thor said in a booming voice "Great danger is coming here and the Avengers have been summoned to face this threat"

On cue Malekiths ship makes itself present by de-cloaking its invisibility. But it didn't come alone. Two more flagships appeared along side it. The three ships floated just above the water before descending towards the edge of the land.

"Well, fuck this looks like it's gonna be fun" Emile loosens his shoulders up

"Try not to have too much fun Emile" Jorge berated "We are dealing with enemies right now"

"Jane, get to safety" Thor says softly to her and she nods running away.

The three men turn to face the three flagships as the touchdown onto the ground.

"So one per person" Emile joked, switching to his grenade launcher "Sounds fair doesn't it"

"Indeed" Thor said "Let us see who shall finish their opponents the fastest"

"I would normally not agree to this" Jorge said honestly "But I do admit, this is too good of an opportunity to pass up"

Dark elves began filing out of the ships, all lead by Malekith the accursed.

"He is mine" Thor says only to the two Spartans beside him who use t heir silence as acknowledgment to Thor's condition.

"How heartwarming" Malekith says in his distorted voice "A welcoming party to our conquest of the universe. Have you come to beg for mercy?"

"No" Thor said steely "We have come to accept your surrender"

"Oh, that's a bold statement" Malekith taunted "Let's see you back it up"

Dark elves began pouring out from the ships and Harrows detached themselves from the t-shaped pillar transports. The Harrows however didn't get far as Thor held up his hammer and called forth his storm control powers, summoning lightning bolts to deal quick and precise strikes to the Harrows.

The explosions were like fireworks as the lightning bolts struck the harrows in a way were the debris was practically incinerated leaving only dust to fall.

"This will not go any further then where we stand" Thor said menacingly "We end this here Malekith"

Malekith rolled his eyes, when his face turned dead serious.

"You needn't of come so far Asgardian" Malekith said, his voice getting deeper, getting an other worldly sound to it "Death would have come for you"

"Not by your hand" Thor and Malekith begin approaching one another.

Thor quickly whispers to the others "Keep the Dark elves at bay"

"Such a pity that you brought your best warriors to this battle" Malekith monologued "Your universe sadly was not meant to exist. Your world, your friends and your family will be EXTINGUISHED"

Malekith conjured several tendrils of the Aether and shot them at Thor. Thor got smashed back

"THOR" Jorge called out

"Well shit" Emile chose to run right into the fray killing two with one shotgun blast thanks to its range.

Jorge began blasting away. Dark elves were falling left and right. This in turn caused for a group of Dark elves to come forward with rather large gauntlets from the usual gear of the elite.

They all lined up and hit their gauntlets all at once. In a flash, a row of shields appeared proving cover for the Dark elves from the never ending storm of high piercing bullets.

"Wow, what a bunch of fucking rip-offs" Emile shouted laughing a bit at fighting such a familiar kind of opponent

Jorge instead aimed higher, now hitting the ship itself. Noble five revved up the handle that was weight support for his minigun in a motorcycle like aspects. The bullet cartridge switched out and changed into the plasma incendiary rounds.

With every hit, the ship was getting scorched and small fires were starting up. The dark elves saw this and deactivated their shields, running right at the Spartan.

Jorge responded by revving the handle again. Only this time, in a shocking new display, the gun deconstructed itself and combined itself into Jorge's armor.

"Thank you vigilance" Jorge said as he deflected a spiked gauntlet from the closest dark elf. He turned the dark elf around with its caught arm, twisting the limb behind its back. Thor grabbed the dark elf's chin with his free hand and in a fluid motion snapped the neck of the being.

He tossed the corpse into several other dark elves, ducking their own versions of plasma fire. He pulled out his combat knife threw it, the knife embedding itself in the head of another elf, right through the mask.

Jorge sprinted towards the falling body, shoving aside any that were in his way. He made it over to the body when it was halfway down to the ground giving him the perfect angle in grabbing his knife right out of its head(Morbid shit I know).

Emile was currently dual wielding his shotgun and his kukri at the same time.

He whacked a dark elf then killed it with a shot

Ducked under an attempted tackle

Leaned back to avoid a follow up gauntlet swing, shooting the elf's upper body and head off.

Stumbled back from several plasma hits.

Turned round to fire at the attacker, sending it flying with bullet holes riddled in the body

Thor was currently duking it out with Malekith single handedly.

He lifted his hammer up just in time to shield himself from another blast of energy from the Aether, only this time he partially stumbled back, still keeping his footing.

"You know with all that power" Thor smirked, wiping blood off his lip "I thought you'd hit harder"

That irked the ruler of Svartalfheim, now calling forth more power than before. That gave Thor the chance to throw Mjolnir right at Malekith, breaking right through the attack Malekith was planning to use.

Malekith was flung back thanks to the hammer. He wobbled upwards and brought his hands up in time to hold back a thunder charged Mjolnir swing from Thor. The collision caused a ripple of power to crack the very ground beneath them, shattering car and building windows as well.

Jorge and Emile were now back to back as they were killing dark elves on to five at a time.

"God dammit they just love swarming us" Emile grunted, impaling a dark elf with his plasma sword. He used the body as a shield against plasma shots and a spike gauntlet that got stuck in the lower back of the meat shield.

Emile saw the advantage, pulling the stuck dark elf towards him, using a powerful clothesline to smash the elf down.

"Booyah mother fucker" Emile said, pulling out his pistol, shooting the humanoid point blank

"Always wanted to say that" Emile mused to himself "Booyah mother fucker"

Fighting ceased when one of the flagships engines flared and ascended back into the air.

"Shit, I don't like where this is going" Emile said as a whistling noise was heard which grew louder and louder.

"Four, that things about to fire something"

"I know" Emile said shoving some Elves back and grabbed his grenade launcher.

He fired all three of his loaded grenades. The explosions did little to deter the charging up of the obvious weapon.

"Hi everybody, Deadpool here and I would like to say thank you for supporting this story and waiting so patiently with guns and pitchforks for this update and I would like to say for this moment right here, this being a superhero driven story, help from above should be coming in 3…2..1…"

"DEADPOOL, STOP INTERFERING WITH THE STORY GODDAMMIT. AURGH. HARLEY!"

"Yes mister FMW"

"Please for the love of god, get your boyfriend out of here for the love of god. Aren't you supposed to be on your honeymoon? You got married like last week"

"*GASP* OH MY GOSH, PUDDING HE'S RIGHT"

"MY GOD, WHAT KIND OF MAN AM I TO DO SUCH A THING. Allow me to narrate my next few moves. I, the overly sexy Deadpool scoops the overly sexy Harley Quinn into my arms and we run off into the sunset"

"OH MISTER D"

"Oh god they're kissing. As much as I'm a hopeless romantic and love seeing two perfect soulmates together, I really don't want to see this right now. So let's get back to the convenient plot device that prevents that ship thingy from doing more damage"

A familiar twinkle in the sky pierced through the cloudy skies of Greenwich. Of course what followed is the saving pillar of the Bifrost that swallowed the Dark Elf flagship.

And in its place came none other than the warriors three and the lady Sif.

"SPARTANS" Volstagg created boisterously by swatting aside a dark elf that jumped at him "Heimdall saw fit that we come to your aid in this battle"

"Much obliged Volstagg" Jorge said returning back to his minigun

"Glad to see you are doing well Jorge" Sif greeted with much enthusiasm

"I'm glad to see you managed to come help us when you were needed most" Jorge replied

Sif successfully fought down the blush that was coming upon her face, keeping a warrior's visage.

"hello Emile" Fandral greeted friendly and all, Hogun just bowing his head

"I was wondering when you guys would show up" Emile said while killing yet another elf

"We had some difficulty getting to the Bifrost" Hogun explained whipping his mace in the face of an elf. The Vanaheim native twisted his handle, causing spikes to shoot out at the end making the weapon much more deadlier.

Jane was currently observing the battle from afar. She watched as the Spartans and the Asgardians fought the Dark Elves bravely, using their years of combat to full affect.

"JANE!"

Jane turned to get tackled by a hug from none other than Darcy.

"Darcy" Jane said with surprise and relief "You're alright"

"Jane"

Jane saw Erik Selvig her mentor and Darcy's intern Ian holding four odd contraptions in his hands.

"Selvig" Jane jogged up to her senior, embracing him "Oh it's so good to see you"

"I'm glad to see you" Selvig said holding her shoulders "After Ian spotted what was going on here in Greenwich, we rushed out here as soon as possible"

"Thanks for spotting me Ian" Jane says sincerely

"No problem" Ian said, embarrassed by the praise

"What are these?" Jane asked, now observing the spikes that Ian held

"Gravitational anomaly devices that I designed to repel the effects of the convergence" Erik explained "Took me some time but I just got them working"

Erik held up two of them "And I'm ready to test them out"

"How exactly?" Ian asked

"If we can hammer them into the ground in areas where the convergence has affect over, these can stabilize and counter any anomalies caused by the convergence and not interfere with Thor's fighting"

At that moment, Thor literally appeared right in front of them through a shimmer in the air.

"THOR"

"Jane?"

"Thor!"

"Selvig? Darcy?"

"Hello"

"Who is…"

"Ian"

"Mjolnir"

The mystical hammer returned to Thor's hand

"Thor, what is going in?"

"Malekith plans to unleash the Aether at the height of the convergence to return the universe to darkness"

"How do you figure that?" Ian asked

"He's like most of the enemies I have faced" Thor said annoyed a bit "Gloating their plans and their belief of assured victory"

"Thor?"

All heads turned and several jumped at the sudden appearance of Fandral and Emile.

"Fandral?!" Thor said in surprise "When did you arrive?"

"Not too long ago" Fandral said "But that is not the point, Thor"

"Yeah, it's getting weird as fuck for us out there" Emile said "And that's saying something"

"You just felt as if you accidentally walked through a doorway" Thor correctly guessed

"Yeah, Fandral and I were fighting a bunch of those blue skinned bastards when we just backed up for space and found ourselves here" Emile said

"The battle is not too far from here" Selvig said pointing towards where Sif, Volstagg, Hogun and Jorge still continued to fight.

"Then let's go" Emile said rushing back into the fray, Fandral following after him

"I must ask quickly" Thor spoke to Erik "Why have you come here Selvig?"

"These" Erik held up his gravitational anomaly devices "May be of use to us"

Emile and Fandral had sprinted across the entire length of distance between where Thor stood and to where Jorge and the others were fighting.

"Four" Jorge saw them coming "Where did you go?"

"It's the convergence" Fandral answered "It appears that invisible doorways are springing up across the whole area"

As if to reinforce his point, several dark elves that were charging at the group inexplicably vanished right in front of them.

"Huh" Volstagg scratched his head "I had no preparation in seeing that"

"Then we must tread cautiously" Sif said raising her shield to block a blast of magic. The amount of Dark elves have been reduced considerably, but two ships still remained. The odd thing is, they've just been sitting their doing nothing.

"I think we should just hurry up and get rid of those ships" Jorge suggested

"I concur" Hogun agreed

"It's the only viable choice of action we can do for the moment" Fandral reasoned more to himself

"Then what are we waiting for" Sif said, marching towards the remaining Dark elves and their two ships

And then Sif fell into the ground through a portal.

"SIF" The Warriors three shouted

"Ah shit" Emile said plainly

"Great" Jorge said in disbelief "That just happened"

"Where do you think she went?" Volstagg asked

"Well when Emile and I went through one of those doorways, we ended up before Thor, his lovely mortal and some other Midgard natives"

"So there is a possibility she can be around here somewhere" Hogun said

"Very much so" Fandral said "Look out"

And just like that the five men returned to fighting the next wave of dark elves.

Only this time, they were huge, Kursed.

"A challenge is it" Fandral said with excitement

"Don't get a big head just yet" Jorge admonished

Then from above, a welcoming war cry

"AVENGERS ASSEMBLE" Ms. Marvel shouted flying down from the sky, tackling a Kursed elf.

A quinjet hovered over the battlefield and out jumped Black Panther, Wolverine, She-hulk, Tigra, War Machine, Quicksilver, Scarlet Witch, spider-woman and surprisingly N.O.A.H. The dark elves in turn retreated from the incoming reinforcements.

"Here comes the cavalry" Emile said "HEY BUTTER KNIVES, WHAT TOOK YA SO LONG"

Logan landed right next to Noble Four.

"Had to take care of some X-men business bonehead" Logan grunted, wearing his X-factor uniform "But now that I'm here, let the fun begin"

"Ah, the mortal champions called the avengers" Volstagg said expectantly "Thor has spoken very highly of you"

"Great' Pietro said "Who are you?"

The crackle of thunder was heard and Thor now landed amongst the contingency of earths mightiest heroes and Asgards greatest warriors.

"My friends" Thor greeted warmly "It is truly a blessing that you arrived when we needed to most"

"What's happening here Thor?" She-hulk asked

"An ancient enemy has resurfaced in hopes of conquering the universe" Thor explained

"So, a typical Tuesday" Wolverine said

"Pretty much" Thor said in agreement

"So what's the game plan Thor?" War Machine asked, still in the air

"We must find Malekith" Thor said "Defeat his forces and remove a powerful substance from him called the Aether"

"Sounds simple enough" Carol said, rejoining the others

"I must ask though" Thor glanced around the assembled heroes "I am aware of Iron Man is off world but where is the Captain? As well as the other Spartans and Avengers?"

"We don't know" Jessica said, clearly showing frustration "They've been off the grid for more than a week now"

"I am detecting multiple anomalies across the area" N.O.A.H Spoke up "There are inconsistent patterns of fluxuating energy fields"

"It's the convergence" Thor said towards the heroes "Malekith will use this millennial event to return the universe to its before time"

"Generic much?" She-hulk said with disappointment

"I am now detecting stabilization in the northwest of the university" N.O.A.H said to no one in particular

"Now is not the time for any further discussions" T'challa spoke in his regal tone "Thor, tell us everything we need to know now"

"We must keep the Dark elves from running rampant on this country and the world" Thor said "Scarlet Witch, Ms. Marvel I will require your assistance in finding and confronting Malekith. Also, my friends tread cautiously. The convergence is opening multiple doorways across the nine realms. You can be here one moment and in Asgard the next"

"I am detecting more of these 'doorways ' you have spoken of, Thor" N.O.A.H said aloud

"Then we'll trust him in guiding us around the doorways" Jorge said getting nods from everyone

"Alright, we have a plan then" Carol said "Avengers, let's do this"

With that, Thor, Ms. Marvel and Scarlet Witch took to the skies while the remaining Avengers charged towards the Kursed elves that have now re-organized themselves.

"Jen, time for the fast-ball special" Logan said

"Roger that" She-hulk said excitedly

She hefted Logan up by the scruff and lower back and with a mighty swing, threw the feral mutant at a running Kursed. Logan let out an animalistic cry as he shoved his adamantium claws into the creatures head.

"He's a wild one" Volstagg commented

"You should see him and Emile on the weekend" Jorge muttered "They just love competing with each other"

The Avengers and Warriors three clashed with the now enhanced, Kursed dark elves.

Volstagg and Fandral fought off several together.

Hogun expertly weaved and dodged a abnormally large Kursed.

"Large heat signatures detected" N.O.A.H said to everyone

Harrows detached from the flagships and took to the skies

"We'll handle these" War machine said as he, Jessica and Noah flew up after the Harrows

Black Panther threw vibranium daggers at a group of Kursed which were then plowed through by Jorge.

Emile and Logan returned to their dual routine of fighting back to back.

Tigra was leaping from shoulder to head, clawing up the Kursed elves.

Quicksilver ran by each Kursed at super-speed, launching over fifty punches and kicks on each Kursed at speeds that not even the eye could follow.

Fandral and Volstagg were fighting side by side.

"Ah I can't wait for the grand feast once we have achieved victory" Volstagg said, drooling a bit at the idea

"Oh, daydream about your salted pork once the battle is won" Fandral said a bit irritably

"We have to keep moving forward and destroy those ships" Jorge shouted

"Uh, Five" Jessica said, pointing up. Jorge glanced up and another three Dark Elf Flagships appear.

"Damn" Jorge gritted out" Jorge gritted out, swinging his machine gun into the gut of a dark elf, killing it by firing through its center.

"Team, we have more company" Jorge said when several Kursed managed to tackle through a doorway.

"JORGE!" Emile shouted, running over to where he vanished only to fall through a portal on the ground along with Logan and Fandral and a bunch of dark Elves

"Oh dear" Hogun said

"Where did they go?" Pietro asked Hogun

"It appears that more doorways are appearing" Hogun said grimly "They could be anywhere right now"

Jorge shook of his enemies and stood up, finding himself standing in the middle of icy world. The Kursed got up as well, taking in their new environment.

Jorge got ready to fight the Kursed when thundering footsteps were heard.

"JORGE!"

"Sif?"

The War goddess sprinted right past the hulking Spartan and Kursed elves. They watched as Sif ran from them, then looked over to the direction from which she came from.

They were unpleasantly surprised by the arrival of a raging Jotunheim beast. The creature roared, pouncing onto one of the Kursed elves, eating it in half. The beast reared its eyes onto the rest of them which was a signal for them to start running.

Back in London, Scarlet witch had rejoined the fight along with Ms. Marvel seeing as they too lost Malekith and Thor the moment the latter chose to attack accursed head on, resulting in both of them disappearing through a portal.

So now they had no choice but to return to the other Avengers and Warriors three in holding back the Dark elves. N.O.A.H, Spider-woman and War machine had also returned after successfully taking care of the harrows.

"Scarlet Witch, colonel Rhodes, Ms. Marvel, I suggest aiming for what appear to be the fuel cells on the bridge of the ships" N.O.A.H Said to the fliers, already firing his own arc beams

"Good idea" Carol said, firing her binary beams

War Machine and Wanda followed up with Hex blasts and repulse missiles. The attacks all successfully connected, causing the ships systems to fail.

"We got it" Wanda exclaimed

"Uh-oh" Rhodey gulped

"What do you mean 'uh-oh'" Carol asked

"It shall fall onto the university in five seconds" N.O.A.H said when his optics glowed for a moment "Gravitational anomaly detected"

Just as Noah said that, a blue force wave of sorts shot out from the top of the roof where the flagship was inches from. The wave surrounded the entire ship and it vanished exactly the same ways as everyone else had been vanishing due to the convergence.

"What was that?" Carol, asking no one really

"A man made anomaly" N.O.A.H said "It appears to counteract some of the convergence"

"Well whoever did that is getting a medal" Rhodey said "I guarantee it"

Emile, Logan and Fandral found themselves in a forest for the moment.

"Huh" Emile said, stepping on the neck of a squirming dark elf "This place feels familiar"

"It would Noble Four, we met here not long ago" Fandral said "It's Vanaheim"

"Great" Logan growled "Now how the hell do we get back?'

Fandral opened his mouth to answer when the trio was met with a very odd sight. Sif ran out from a portal before running right into a tree portal followed by Jorge, some Kursed Dark Elves and at last a chasing Jotunheim beast.

"That'll do for now" Logan said, running after them

"Right" Emile and Fandral said together, heading right into the portal…

Only to find themselves in a English train station.

"Fucking hell, this is really starting to piss me off" Emile shouted, gaining incredulous looks from surrounding civilians. A train pulled up and opened it's doors.

"Does this train go to Greenwich?" Emile interrogated the first person he laid eyes on which was a blonde Caucasian female.

Everyone was rather terrified of the Spartan with a skull carved into his visor.

"Uh" The woman stammered "Take this train, three stops"

"Thanks" Emile grunted as he Fandral and Logan piled in, getting some good space from its current occupants.

Sif, Jorge and the Kursed elves were now standing on the edge of a cliff back on Jotunheim.

"Did we lose it?"

"Sif, Jorge!" The duo and Kursed elves looked back to find Thor and Malekith and were immediately interrupted by the large Jotunheim beast appearing from a portal and jumping right onto the edge of the cliff, completely destroying it. The cliff as well as those that stood on it fell right into another convergence doorway that was waiting for them below.

Jorge fell onto his back and then felt a body fall onto his. In the entire commotion of jumping from realm to realm, it appears his helmet had fallen off. Jorge turned his head to find his discarded helmet literally a few inches from him. When he glanced up, he found a rather unusual sight.

Sif sat up and rubbed her head

"By the Allfather, I am amazed I have not regurgitated my lunch"

"Sif"

"Yes Jorge?" Sif looked down and froze, her face beat red in a second.

Sif jumped off of him and Jorge got up, not really showing any emotion.

"If you want, we don't have to speak of this" Jorge said, dusting off his helmet and placing it back on

"Agreed" Sif said all to quickly

"Where are we?"

"FIVE"

They saw Black Panther and Spider-woman approach them.

"Panther, Jessica" Jorge greeted "How goes the fight?"

"We Were holding them back" T'challa replied

"But then we stepped through one of those annoying invisible doorways and appeared here in this courtyard" Jessica said exasperatedly

"Sif and I just ran through several realms" Jorge said "This is getting out of hand"

"Noble Five, I have located you" A synthetic voice said

N.O.A.H. landed before Jorge.

"The Avengers and Asgardians have successfully defeated the Dark elf forces"

"All that's left now is to take out the head-honcho" Jessica said

"And last I saw he was fighting Thor" Jorge stated

"There they are" Sif pointed up and sure enough there was Thor falling with Malekith as the two brawled their way down to Earth.

"Let's go" Jorge said and the company ran in the direction to where Thor and his opponent fell.

Emile, Logan and Fandral had finally returned to Greenwich and saw the avengers along with the other two of the warriors three staring at a giant red swirling pillar that had tendrils branching out into the other realms.

"What is this?" Emile said aloud making everyone look back to see the three rejoin their ranks.

"Malekith is now using the full power of the Aether with the convergence at its peak. Thor managed to remain close to him, so he's in there right now"

"We can't do anything from here" Wolverine said throwing his hands up in exasperation

"She-hulk and I couldn't get through it" Carol said grudgingly

"We must have faith in Thor" Hogun said sagely

"No point in arguing there" Jorge conceded

The gathered heroes simply stood there and watched as the swirling energy of the Aether continued its constant movement before their very eyes when it abruptly subsided.

In the center of the ravaged university campus stood a ravaged, bruised but standing Thor.

Malekith was nowhere to be seen.

"Mission accomplished" Emile said grinning

Hours later, the Avengers and the Warriors three were helping clean up around the university, piling up corpses and harrows into one pile. Once they were finished, Thor called down Heimdall to dispose of the remains into its rightful homeland. The warriors Three also chose to return home at this time, not before bidding farewell to the Avengers and especially the Spartans in hopes that they would one day fight together.

Sif on the other hand remained behind for a few moments alone with Jorge.

"I am truly grateful that I was able to stand beside you Jorge" Sif said, right hand over h er chest, bowing her head

"Hey, no need to bow" Jorge said light heartedly "After all the honor is all mine. To fight alongside the War Goddess Sif. Now that's something I'll be able to tell my students back at the mansion in Westchester"

"You're a teacher?" Sif said in surprise

"Yes" Jorge said "If you wish, you can come by and visit. I'm sure the headmaster wouldn't mind your company in the slightest"

"I- I don't know what to say" Sif felt humbled

"Just promise you'll visit" Jorge said holding out his hand

Sif blinked at the gesture. She then smiled and the two grabbed each others wrists and shook on it

"It's a promise then" Sif said with a warm smile. She stepped back and the Bifrost took her back to Asgard

"That was a nice sendoff"

"I feel as though you're going to mock me relentlessly for this"

"For now, I'll hold back. You've been doing it to me since I started going out with Ororo. It's only natural that I pay you back in full and then some"

"…"

"I really hate you right now, Four"

"Whatever you say big man"

The Spartans soon returned to the Avengers.

"What's the sitrep?" Jorge asked Ms. Marvel

"We've gotten the whole area secured and there are no hostiles left" Carol said

"We have also been trying to establish some connection with Cap and Chief but we'e still getting nothing" She-hulk said with evident frustration.

"But that's not the weirdest part" Tigra spoke up "We found someone of interest"

"Of interest?" Jorge asked "What do you mean?"

"OH MY GOD" War Machine yelled in horror

"Rhodey?" Wanda said with obvious concern

War Machine removed his helmet, his eyes wide with utter disbelief. He brought his wrist and pressed a button that brought a holo-screen. On it were bone chilling words.

'S.H.I.E.L.D no more: the HYDRA parasite'

And underneath it was a smaller but even more important title

'Cap and his company of avengers stomp out the HYDRA threat along with SHIELD'

"What the hell is going on?!" Carol exclaimed, examining a picture of what appeared to be a falling Heli-carrier and if one zoomed in, you could clearly see Falcon swooping down to grab Hawkeye. There were other photos of the Heli-carriers destroying one another and also ones where they were firing at Captain America, Hawkeye, Noble Six, Falcon and Master Chief.

"We have to get back to the Avengers tower now" Black Panther said "Noble Five is it possible to contact the Dawn?"

"NOAH can handle that"

"Indeed I can"

"Then grab the woman and move" Black Panther commanded "We must find Captain America and Master Chief now"

Seeing no point in disagreeing, The avengers called in their Quinjet and were up in the air, going at full speed back to NY.

Sif and Volstagg made their way through a very odd hallway.

The walls of the corridor were aligned with large glass compartments holding all types of gadgets, gizmos, even living beings and things beyond description.

The pink skinned female that was leading them showed them into a much larger room.

The pink humanoid stopped and bowed graciously

"I present to you Taneleer Tivan, The collector"

A man with perhaps one of the most bizarre getups one could encounter turned towards the Asgardians.

"Oh, Asgardians" The Collector said, aghast at himself for not showing proper manners

He did the most over the top bow anyone could ever pull off

"Welcome"

Sif glanced around taking in the freaky things within the glass container.

"You know why we're here" Sif said straight away

"Of course" The Collector rose "But if I may ask, why not keep it secure in your own vault?"

"The Tesseract is already on Asgard" Volstagg explained "It is not wise to keep wo infinity stones so close together"

"That's very wise" The Collector agreed in a bit of a condescending tone

Sif and Volstagg glanced at each other, the latter nodding. Sif pulled out a container of sorts from her cloak. The Aether

She handed it to Tivan who delicately took it into his own hands

"I assure you" He brought up to his chest "It will be…absolutely safe, in my collection"

"See that it is" Sif said warningly

The Collector simply bowed his head, making the two Asgardians depart.

Once they were out o f earshot

"One down…five to go"

Special scene

The whole city was in complete disarray.

There were creatures of unknown origin terrorizing the population, destroying everything on sight.

Leading them all was a giant humanoid that seemed to epitomize death and destruction itself.

It seemed as though nothing could stop him.

Almost nothing.

Swooping and rocket thrusters were heard with a mixture of thunder, fast paced running, thwips, roars and craters being made. Capes rustled in the wind.

A man garbed in red and blue landed in front of the giant, a spider emblem on his chest and back.

Then another dropped down standing right by him garbed in black and grey, a bat symbol proudly displayed on his chest.

The next to join was a man who wore the patriotic stars and stripes of America with a shield to match.

Running up beside him at super speed was another man clad in a crimson out fit with a lightning bolt insignia on his chest.

Then came a large green beast that landed right behind the first four that arrived, wearing nothing but some stretched shorts and a mean growl.

Next up was a blond haired male wearing a golden orange tinted shirt with green skin tight pants and boots, holding a golden trident.

A feral cry was heard when a tall 6"2' animalistic looking male jumped down from a building and landed next to the arachnid themed hero, metal claws sticking out from between his knuckles.

Then came a human who seemed more machine than man, seeing that only the right side of his face and his entire mouth were the only human looking parts.

A zip line embedded itself into the ground and down came an archer garbed in black.

Up above floated a variety of other super humans

Two were women unlike any other with one wearing Amazonian battle gear, holding a s word while the blond wore a one piece black suit with a lightning bolt on her chest, red sash on tied round her thigh, knee high black boots and elbow length gloves.

Next to them floated a man entirely encased in perhaps the most advanced armor on the planet alongside a green skinned humanoid with a blue cape.

Floating above them were two men wearing billowing red capes.

One held a mystic hammer

The other displayed a shield like symbol on his chest with an S proudly displayed on it.

And last but not least was a green garbed hero, holding his fist up that wore a glowing green ring that radiated the light of will power.

The League of Avengers have arrived.

HOLY FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCK THAT TOOK FOREVER.

Dear god life can really hold you back at times.

So yeah I'm not gonna say much here, other than the fact that next up we have the Winter soldier arc up next and that's probably going to be just as long. I just hope, now that I have my own laptop that I can work on my stories more often and update a lot faster cause this is getting ridiculous.

I have already started my next upcoming crossover and I still need to update my Mass Effect/Spider-man crossover next.

Busy life people, really busy life.
