The Avengers Assemble

Grim flew down towards the ground and hovered until he landed near the others. "Stupid pranking son of a bitch." Harry said under his breath.

"Best not let Thor hear that." Natasha commented. "He wouldn't want to hear you talking about his mother."

"He's adopted." Harry reminded her in a dismissive voice just as he the group heard a screech, they turned to see a group of Chitauri rushing towards them, Harry raised his wand as he was more than ready to start blasting them but it turned out he didn't need to. Thin rays of lightning descended down from the sky, eliminating the Chitauri, a second later Thor arrived, though he stumbled upon landing.

"I'm guessing you had a talk with Loki." Harry said as he gestured to the stab wound on Thor's midsection.

"You could say that." Thor nodded. Harry was about to respond when he suddenly heard a voice in his ear piece, Harry listened for a few seconds before he conjured some rope and turned it into a portkey before tossing it to Padfoot who was portkeyed away.

"What did you do?" Clint asked.

"Getting back up." Harry shrugged before turning to Thor, "Where is Loki?" Harry asked.

"I'm not sure." Thor admitted.

"What's the story upstairs?" Cap asked.

"The power surrounding the cube is impenetrable." Thor replied.

"How sure are you?" Harry asked.

"Not even Mjolnir could get through it." Thor said as he gestured to his hammer.

"It's pure energy," Barton commented. "Thor's right when he says nothing will get through it."

"They're right, we've got to deal with these guys." Stark said over their communication devices.

"How do we do this?" Natasha asked.

"As a team." Cap answered.

"If we must." Harry replied.

"I have unfinished business with Loki." Thor replied.

"Sorry to break it to you but you will have to wait in line." Barton responded.

"And I'm first in line." Harry declared.

"Save it," Cap said, "Loki's going to keep this fight focused on us and that's what we need. We've got Stark up top and that means we can..." Cap was cut off as Banner appeared alongside Padfoot, both were holding onto the rope that Harry had given them. Padfoot tossed it aside once Banner let go of it.

"You brought him here?" Natasha asked Harry.

"Fury said he wanted to help."

"Well," Banner coughed after recovering from the unexpected portkey trip, he looked around and saw damaged buildings with various things on fire. "this looks horrible."

"I've seen worse." Natasha replied.

"Sorry." Bruce said in an apologetic voice.

"No, we could use a little worse." Natasha sighed.

"Stark," Cap said into his ear piece. "we've got him."

"Banner?" Stark's voice asked.

"Just like you said." Cap nodded even though Stark couldn't see it.

"Tell him to suit up," Stark's voice replied. "I'm bringing the party to you. Get ready." Stark said, the group watched as Stark flew into view and flew towards them while being chased by a Leviathan which was uncaringly destroying everything in its way.

"I...I don't see how that's a party." Natasha commented.

"Dr. Banner," Cap said to Bruce as he calmly walked towards the Leviathan. "now might be a really good time for you to get angry."

"That's my secret Cap," Bruce said as he glanced back to the group. "I'm always angry." He added just before he increased in size and transformed into the green skinned Hulk. Hulk cocked his fist back just as it got closer and when the timing was exactly right, he punched it. The Leviathan was stopped immediately by the Hulk's powerful punch, its lower half going upwards since Hulk stopped it from the head. Its armour began breaking, exposing it's fleshy underbelly and it was about to fall on top of the avengers.

"Hold on!" Stark said just before he shot a rocket at an exposed bit of the Leviathan, Grim quickly put up a shield to protect himself and his fellow allies from the Leviathan's exploding body. The Chitauri, noticing what just happened, began screeching at them in what was either supposed to be an angry shout or a threatening war cry. Truth be told Harry thought it sounded like a dying animal.

The Hulk let out a far more threatening and impressive battle cry, just as Stark landed next to them. The team stood in a circle with Natasha and Barton preparing to fire their weapons, Hulk roared while Stark landed next to him as Cap and Thor raised their weapons, Grim's wand glowed a blood shot red. The team looked up when they saw more chariots and two leviathans flying out.

The situation was a serious one, so much so that Stark didn't even appear to be wanting to comment on Padfoot's new appearance.

"Call it Captain." Iron Man said, Grim saw the rest of the team look towards Cap and realized that Cap was apparently in charge here. Thankfully Grim didn't really have much of a problem with Cap being in charge seeing as the man was more than competent enough to lead a battle.

"Alright listen up, until we can close that portal our priority is containment." Cap said with Grim nodding in agreement, that was a good plan. "Barton I want you on that roof," Cap said as he pointed to tall nearby building. "eyes on everything, call out patterns and strays. Stark you guard the perimeter, anything gets more than three blocks out then you turn it back or turn it to ash."

"You got it." Stark nodded.

"Hey, can I get a lift?" Barton asked.

"Right, better clench up Legolas" Stark said, he was about to fly Barton up when Barton caught a portkey that Harry had made and disappeared.

"That's so cool," Iron Man commented. "by the way we are definitely going to be talking about that." Stark commented as he pointed to Padfoot before flying up into the air.

"Thor, you got to try and bottle neck that portal and slow them down, you've got the lightning, light the bastards up." Captain America said to Thor who nodded as he span his hammer before taking off into the air. "You and me, we stay here on the ground, keep the fighting here." Cap said to Natasha before turning to Hulk. "Hulk," He said, the Hulk grunted as he looked at him. "smash." Cap said, Hulk lit up Christmas had come. He grinned before he jumped in the air and towards a group of Chitauri.

"You're pretty good at this." Grim complimented Cap.

"Thanks, we'll see how good I am by the end of this." Cap replied. "I'm told that you're good at killing, that's exactly what we need right now. I want you to alternate between the sky and ground, assist whenever you can and take out as many of those bastards as possible."

"If that's what you want." Grim responded before he whistled and Padfoot walked up to him. "Boy, you stay here and listen to Cap and Natasha, kill any Chitauri who so much as look at you, got it?"

"Woof!" Padfoot barked.

"Good boy." Grim said before he took to the air.
