163. A Certain Heist

In New York. The battle had started. For some reason, the enemy forces were much bigger than in the movies. Maybe because Ronan was also participating. The enemy Leviathans were already so tough to deal with, now they had that giant Kree ships too.

The Avengers were fighting as good as they could. Hulk was jumping around and smashing. Though he was much better after Alexander had trained him. Thor and Tony were flying around and killing Chitauris.

The most humanly of the group, Captain America and Black Widow were fighting on the ground.

As the two fought they got a bit far away from each other. Captain threw his shield at one's neck and killed it. He looked behind and saw a Chitauri flying towards Natasha.

He didn't have enough time to go and save her, his shield was away as well. So he shouted, "Agent, Watch out."

His words alerted her and she looked behind, but it was too late and the Chitauri was too close.

But then out of nowhere a beam of white light fell on it from the sky and disintegrated the Chitauri to ashes.

Leonidas flew towards her slowly,

"Be careful, miss Romanoff." He smiling said.

She smiled seeing him, "Care to give a lift to this lady?"

Leonidas didn't say anything and straight-up picked her up in a princess carried and flew to the portal machine. Leonidas kept on looking at her face all the way. Any Chitauri that came to attack them got blasted away without him even seeing them.

She also looked at his handsome face, "Flying must be very convenient."

"I don't know but currently I am very thankful that Dada taught me flying." He cheekily replied.

Strangely, Natasha blushed a little. "Who is your father that you've been talking so much about?" She asked.

"You will know soon enough. Once he comes, none of this will matter. No Armies, no weapons." He assured her.

Natasha worriedly looked at the city, "I hope he hurries then."

Soon they reached the top of the building. Natasha started to look at the machine after dealing with Dr. Eric.

...

Back at the Helicarrier,

"Language, Fury," Alexander reprimanded.

Dobby walked to the front in his uniform and spoke in a tough voice, "Soldier, you broke the discipline. Now give me 20."

Fury's mind short-circuited and he quickly fell down and started to do push-ups. Dobby's height was just too intimidating and it resurfaced Fury's old training days memory.

~Wait, why am I doing this?~ Fury thought in his mind and embarrassingly stood up.

He looked at Alexander with a serious expression. "A-Are you real?"

Alexander looked at Agent Hill. "Dear, will you bring the biological imprint scanner?"

Agent Hill nodded and quickly brought the little device. "Alright, Fury. Look carefully."

Alexander put his finger on the scanner and it quickly showed results on the screen, "GENERAL OF THE ARMIES, ALEXANDER MAXIM UNIVERSE, CHAIRMAN OF U.S DEFENCE FORCES. CHAIRMAN AND FOUNDER OF SHIELD. CLEARANCE LEVEL X"

"Wait, there is a level X?" Fury mumbled.

"One more thing," Alexander went near his ear and spoke the long string of letters that only the Director and the founders knew in case they needed to prove their identity.

Fury was 99 percent sold, the remaining one was because he never trusted anyone fully, "How are you still alive?"

"Experiments, I did on myself. After World War, I left Earth and traveled the Universe. Getting stronger and creating my own presence. You don't have to worry now. I am a big and famous man in space with giant intergalactic fleets." Alexander told him.

Suddenly a light bulb lit in his head, "Wait, are you the Emperor Universe that Captain Marvel told me about?"

Alexander only nodded.

Fury nearly shouted, "MOTHERF*..."

He wasn't able to finish his cursing as he received a fist on his head from Dobby. "Language, soldier"

"Yes, sir" Fury instinctively replied.

"You've been protecting Earth for so long. Why didn't you appear earlier, Sir." He asked.

"Because Earth didn't need me yet. Besides, I have been secretly living here for quite a while and helping wherever I could. How do you think Banner's case got solved so easily?" Alexander revealed.

Fury was hit by so many realizations now. "What now, Sir? Although I don't want to give away my command over to you, but you directly outrank me."

Actually, Fury was only acting tough. He was fangirling inside his head. He was a super fan of the General Universe. Just like any other good-hearted American soldier would be. He always took inspiration from Alexander for being good at the job and also looking badass.

Alexander waved his hand and all types of communication became dead around them. This meant no one could spy on them.

"Fury, Shield has been invaded by Hydra. Even the Council has been compromised. I will not take command of Shield for now. I will first appear in front of the world in New York City and kill the aliens. Meanwhile, I want you to go to the Council meeting and record everything they will say on this. The council will ask you to nuke New York."

Fury's eye widened. "But the city is not empty yet."

Alexander nodded, "I know. That is why you must record it. Leave the nukes to me... Oh, I'm being asked in the city. I'll be leaving things under you, Fury."

Alexander said ordered and disappeared. Leaving behind a secretly excited Fury.

Fury then looked at Agent Hill. "Since when did you work for him?"

"I was raised by Kindheart foundation, sir." She answered.

Fury was suddenly hit with the realization that is all the kids from Kindheart were loyal to Alexander then it meant that Alexander had people all around the world.

...

Back in New York,

The fight was still ongoing. But there was another strange thing happening in some alley.

After a small light show, Tony, Steve, Scott, and Professor Hulk appeared from the future.

Steve checked the area and spoke, "Alright, we all got assignments, two stones uptown, one stone down. Stay Low. Keep an eye on the clock."

Then suddenly Hulk appeared in front of them and smashed some cars and Chitauri soldiers. He tilted his head and saw the 4 people in the alley.

Steve, Tony, and others' hearts sank seeing that. But to their surprise, the angry Hulk ignored them and jumped away.

Tony then looked at the sky and his feet went cold. "Guys, I think we messed up. There were never this many Chitauri in our time. Also that black ship."

Everyone looked at the sky. Professor Hulk realized the problem. "I think we came to the wrong reality. This is not our past."

"But the stones are still there, right?" Scott foolishly said.

"Yes, but we can't take them. Not anymore as our time machine isn't reliable. We might not be able to return them," Professor Hulk added.

Tony agreed, "Banner's right. If we take the stones from here then we're practically dooming this reality."

"But we can still save ours" Scott insisted.

Steve shook his head, "At what cost? A version of you still exists here, your daughter still exists here, Scott. Are you okay with killing them?"

But he also gave an alternative, "But I have another solution. What if after we bring everyone back, we also make a wish that the stones return back to their places. After all, Thanos was able to destroy them with their own power so this should be possible."

Professor Hulk agreed, "It is hypothetical. We don't know if they can cross realities. But they should be able to as there are stones named after space, time, and reality."

"Umm... I don't like this feeling of possibly killing myself but let's do it. Let's hope this world isn't much different and stones are in the same places. Woah, look at that building top. Who's that guy, flirting with Natasha?" Tony pointed to the Universe Tower.

"Wait, why is there another tall building? This isn't supposed to be... Argh... This is going to be a headache." Tony complained.

Steve took a long breath, "Alright, let's do this. But we're going to have to wait a lot because this fight doesn't seem like anywhere near an end."

Professor Hulk moved forward, "But I can go."

They all agreed on that.

Professor Hulk jumped the streets and went to New York Sanctum where Ancient One was killing Chitauries like ants.

Professor Hulk jumped onto the terrace and proceeded to enter. Not noticing the Ancient One.

"I wouldn't do that if I were you." She warned.

"I'm looking for Doctor Strange," he said.

Ancient One was amused, "You're about five years too early. Steven Strange is performing surgery about twenty blocks that way. What do you want from him?"

He pointed at the eye of agamotto. "That actually."

"Oh! I'm afraid not." She bluntly denied.

Then Professor Hulk tried strength and got his astral body out as a result.

He then tried to beg her for the stone. "I can't help you, Bruce. If I give up the stone to help your reality, I'm dooming my own."

She then showed him the timeline and Bruce told her that they'd put the stones back. Secretly hiding that they were probably from another reality.

Then Bruce revealed that Strange gave the stone away to Thanos. Which seriously convinced Ancient One that giving the stone was the right option. But she still denied.

"Why, why are you still denying?" Bruce pleadingly asked.

*Sigh* "Because I don't have the authority to decide. I may hold this stone but someone else owns it. I'm just a keeper till he doesn't ask for it." She revealed.

Bruce was confused, "Wait, aren't the stones made from Big Bang. How can they be someone's property."

The Ancient One shook her head, "You have no idea, Bruce. There are beings in the universe even older than the big bang. The owner of these stones is a being higher than anyone."

"Then ask him. If he's so high and almighty then he'd surely understand." Bruce confidently said.

She surprisingly agreed, "Perhaps it's the right choice. I'll ask him."
