- Within The Very Depths Of Space :-

"Lord- we have a new ally, and... The Tesseract has awakened!"

"The Tesseract has awakened, in a- little world, a small planet - a world of humans that wish to harness it's very natural affinities for greed and obstruction.

But with our new ally they never will combine with that of our army, the Chitauri- these insignificant ants mean nothing to our power, my Lord..."

And as soon as this sentence was uttered countless cheers of might echoing within the analogue sounds reverberated across the depths of space as the voice carried on

"The world will be his, the universe yours- and the humans what can they do? But Burn!!"

---____---

Within an empty seemingly obscure building suddenly - a door ripped out of the walls as the obscure building became anything but obscure as soon the building transformed into an incredibly high tech building.

And with this numerous people were beginning to be seen as though it was incredibly advanced- the surrounding areas seemed somewhat damaged as broken potholes in the ground appeared as if a behemoth stepped upon the ground and destroyed it.

"How bad is it?..."

Then the area immediately got rowdy as a bald, eye-patch wearing man came in- with a dainty agent to his side- as she began to explain what exactly occurred within Project Pegasus.

"So the tesseract is active-!!"

Turning to his agent- he said: "Immediately evacuate- and take phase two with you in the trucks- now - Go!"

However his agent- wished to say but- "Hill- no buts- now get out of here."

And as soon as the man said- this he began to talk to the doctor on why exactly the tesseract was acting up- "Sir there seems to be no tampering and if there was- it could only be from another end- the other side of the Tesseract.

And the way it's acting up is like the damn stones sentient!"

Sighing with clear aggressiveness within his voice he turned to Barton who was in his den, as usual, observing like a hawk for any anomalies.

"Barton- get down here- and explain to me what you've seen."

Hearing the Barton roped down the building as he moved over to Fury with haste in his limbs-

"What is happening here- Barton?"

Saying that visible stress could be seen on Fury's face as he wondered what was going on with this world-

Barton soon arrived next to him as he began to explain what he knew- "Selvig's- clean, no contacts were notified of anything and if I'm right it's from the other side-!"

"Other side?"

Asked Fury with curiosity laced within his voice.

As if a matter of factly- Barton carried on, "Well yes a door opens on both sides- right, and this is the gateway to space, It is the tesseract meaning whatever's on that other side is what's causing such a damn mess in the first place.

It's aggravating the stone and acting as a catalyst to speed up the instability of the stone in the first place causing Project Pegasus to be a failure in the first place."

But as soon as Barton said this, the stone as if responding to Barton's words began to heat up and brighten up its blue core as it caused a huge ray of light to begin pouring out as soon the whole area was blinded by the light much like a solar flare.

Once the solar flare had disappeared however a huge amount of the tesseracts energy was waved around in the room as the smoke of another life form was emitted- a man with ravenous black hair with a spear glowing in blue light appeared.

Fury sensing the danger rolling off of this man like a plume of bad smoke immediately noticed his clothing which seemed to have a Nordic feel to it- 'He's an Asgardian...'

Trying to ease the situation whilst hoping he's like Thor- Fury began to speak again, "Sir please put down the spear- I repeat put down The- MotherF*cker-!!"

Immediately a blue beam of light was fired straight at Fury's direction missing by a couple of inches due to Barton's reaction time- however as soon as this happened, it was war alright.

"Agents- fire!"

And with that declaration from Fury dozens of agents immediately began to shoot rapidly at the obvious Asgardian as they shot until they lost all of their ammo- yet he was bulletproof- of course, he was, the bullets reflected off of him like nothing.

Whilst this was happening another- agent went in for close combat in order to effectively and tactically take the man down with close proximity- however, he was spotted as the Asgardian batted him down like a fly.

Another blue beam of light then echoed in the walls of Project Pegasus as the man shot at Barton- and missing once again- this reminded him of his previous failure with the damn Hairless Ape.

He was, of course, referring to Leon- 'That ape with the red hair annihilated me in battle so bad that I had to exile myself to get free from the All-Father's wrath.

I couldn't even face mother after that and I was so stupid to think that I could rule Asgard.

I'm not even Odin's son- I'm a frost giant something I detested so much I tried to commit Genocide- Life isn't damn fair-

And now I have to work for Thanos to keep my life preserved- F*ck Me.'

Missing once again he got frustrated as he upped the ante- by firing in multiple directions completely demolishing the building that once housed the glorious Tesseract- since the '90s.

However though he defeated every other agent- one remained, It was the Hawk- Clint Barton rushing behind Loki in an effort to demolish him and remove his dangerous laser thingy.

But before he could do that- Loki gripped his hands and caused him to feel an unimaginable pain- as if an iron grip timed by a thousand- it felt like his hand would turn to dust- but he had to stop this guy and so he braved on with his hand crushed.

Going in for a body punch with his other he managed to slightly push the Asgardian back- and with a quick kick to the side of his leg- he pushed him back even more- as the grip on Loki's Spear began to falter-

Seeing this scene- Fury who struggled to stand grabbed a nearby gun and began to shoot burst fire at the powerful Jotun-

However, it did nothing but annoy the Jotun as he squeezed harder on Barton's arms causing him to finally wince in pain as his face showed real agony- with Loki gazing at him with interest.

"You Have Heart?!"

With confusion as to why an ant would have so much courage facing him- Loki the Norse Pantheon's Mischief Maker- controller of illusions and Magic- he was now curious at this thing that Earthlings possessed.

'Indomitable Will? Perhaps- much like that Ape with inhuman levels of strength for some reason- he was a human- an ant why couldn't he stay an ant, and at the bottom of the food chain?

He could not tell why maybe it was because of humanities indomitable wills within certain individuals.'

Gently powering up his staff- he filled in blue energy of sorts in Barton's chest as gradually- this moved into his body and into his veins as he began to become supercharged and into an illusion- whilst his eyes turned sky blue.

With Loki looking on with amusement and shock all at the same time- 'He was strong and had the will - yet it was nowhere near that Hairless Apes own will- and this new power he'd gained from Thanos was quite incredibly useful.

Barton then lowered his gun as he placed it within his holsters- all the while Fury began to pack up as he gently placed the tesseract within the temporary container- And with Loki busy, he began to silently move out of the area.

But a certain baritone voice of sorts- with a soothing efficacy to it called out to Fury.

"Please don't- I still need that."

"This doesn't need to get any messier-!"

However, Loki rebutted him as he said- "Of course it does- I've come so damn far- I can do this and kill you all- especially that Hairless Ape with my new power boost."

"Excuse me- 'Hairless Ape' I thought you Asgardians- were far above mortal matters - calling me a Hairless Ape- how racist are you all..."

Hearing this Loki literally did a double-take as he tried to explain his words-

"No I'm not talking about you Eggman- It's about that Palm Haired Human- I called him a hairless ape- not you!"

However, Fury only responded with - "Sure- that's what they all say..."

"I am Loki of Asgard- I have transcended Race- I am the Deity of Mischief- I note it you've met my brother Thor- ?"

Hearing this Selvig who had just woken up from his temporary knockdown exclaimed in surprise- "Asgard- so there are more of your pantheon still around?"

"We have no quarrel with your people." Exclaimed Fury- his suspicions were right- he was an Asgardian- but why would they declare war on earth- it made no sense weren't they the protectors of the nine realms?

"An ant has no quarrel with a boot..." Said Loki with mirth in his voice as he looked amused at the bald man in front,

"You planning to step on us?" Asked Fury as he awaited an answer and a way to stall time for Coulson and the other agents to arrive.

"I come with glad tidings- of a world made free..."

"Free of what?" Once again Fury asked- trying to decipher whatever went on within these aliens minds- but it seemed implausible,

"Freedom of life - natures greatest achievements- until man conquered and divided these lands putting up borders made of rock upon this beautiful world- into this abomination- you mortals need to all die.

Once you accept that in your heart- you will find peace."

However, Clint stopped this as he said- "Sir he's stalling- we've got five minutes before we go critical- he's gonna throw a hundred feet of rock on top of us all-

We need to go, sir-"

Selvig then said- "Yes he's right the portal is extremely unstable and it will kill us all if we do not get away as fast as possible!"'

------

"So the tesseract is active has summoned a bloody Asgardian- and my agents- weren't able to stop a man from taking it- let me guess he was an offworlder? An Asgardian Motherf*cker!!"

"As of right we are at WAR- Coulson call in the Initiative- class this as Level 7 and head to Base!!"

Screamed Fury as he thought of his own teams- inferiority when compared to them damn supermen out in the larger universe- he knew the only way to stop this was to finally initiate the damned Avengers.

He had already called in Natasha and Rogers,- but Clint and Selvig were taken by that Asgardian- Banner was currently on his way to the Shield Helicarrier and it was now time to call in Leonard Stark- the man with incredible strength both mentally and physically.

And he knew that the boy would join- hell if he didn't he'd pull the parent's card and tell him how his old folk died- but seriously an otherworldly evil superman was now flying free reign with the tesseract.

There was only one option- The Protectors Initiative!

No, it was the Avengers Initiative.

- Meanwhile With Leon :-

Currently, the Saiyan was lounging on his sofa as he began to binge some TV programmes whilst wondering exactly how the episode would end.

The main character had just received a power-up as his aura began to burst out in the surrounding area.

Whilst his eyes glowed gold- he was ready to end the villain...

But then the episode ended as Leon telekinetically used his TV remote to play the next episode whilst opening up a portal with his other hand as he took out some Nachos and salsa from the portal.

Crunching noises echoed as the Saiyan sat in pleasure while eating and binging his favourite TV Programme.
