Chaos all over the world

And this situation worsened even further when the Leviathans came out of the portal. In the movie, Hulk was the one who took care of most of them while a few stragglers were taken care of by Tony Stark and the others.

But now that Hulk is not here, the situation was getting more and more out of control.

To add fuel to the fire, while nobody was paying attention, Raven suddenly appeared besides Dr. Eric Selvig who was busy with the instruments on the top of a building near the portal. Then without giving him a chance , she knocked him unconscious and brought back to their base silently.

So now the only person who knew how to close the portal was also missing from the battlefield. Because of a lot of variables, the World Council decided to launch the mini nuclear missile at the portal situated in the center of New York City in advance. They decided to sacrifice millions of people for fear that the whole world will be overrun by aliens otherwise.

But unfortunately they were doomed to fail. These aliens were all Alex's soul energy points. How could he let them be destroyed so easily? Alex has already asked Galypso to hack into the database of World Council and other nuclear power countries in advance.

So currently they were unable to use their most powerful and reliable weapons at all.

After everyone all over the world knew about this matter, naturally there is destined to be a mass outrage and the collapse of faith and will to fight. Thus the ruling governments decided to hide it from the people and started looking for countermeasures in the meantime.

While all of this was happening, Alex and the others were still resting in their base watching the New York war on a large screen.

" Hey Alex, aren't we going to take action? "

Lucy asked at this time confused.

" No Lucy, it's not right time yet. Remember one thing, people will only cherish it when they are at their worst. If you go out and help them out now, they won't feel much gratitude towards us. On the other hand, if you help them when there is no hope left at all, they will worship us like a God. "

Alex looked at her and explained.

This was exactly what Alex has been planning since the time he landed on earth. In almost all of the Marvel Universes, earth is the center of attraction of the whole reality . And if Alex wanted to rule the whole world, naturally Earth is the best place to start.

At the beginning, Alex was going to take it slow and follow the plot of the movies as much as possible. But when he found out that...

" Alex, I have already relayed your orders to all the subordinate members of Illuminati all over the world. They are all ready to act at your signal. "

Emma's voice came at this time and brought Alex back to his senses.

" Oh yeah, that's good. Thanks Emma. "

Alex said casually.

" You're welcome sir. "

.....

Just like that two more days passed and the New York war has already spread to all over the world.

The Avengers were also forced to retreat after fighting for just half a day. At this moment they were all huddled up in SHIELD's hellicarier and licking their wounds.

And taking advantage of this time, Alex ordered his subordinates to act all over the world.

During this time, Alex has built a lot of high - tech underground bunkers all over the world with alien technology. Thus they managed to remain hidden till now.

Now when people all over the world were panicking and had nowhere to go with intense war between armies of respective nations and the Chitauris going on, Alex ordered his subordinates to give the general populace access to these bunkers. Naturally no one had the mood and time to care how they came about in the first place and tacitly took shelter in them.

Although there were also a few bad elements who tried to instigate people, but unfortunately they disappeared from the face of this world the next day and were never to be seen again. At this time of crisis, Illuminati rose as the saviour.

There were a lot of rumours about the people who were behind this organization but no one was certain.

While general public called them 'Messiah', 'Saviour' and even gods . The politicians and the others were trying to label it as an organization similar to HYDRA from the past. Although they weren't very successful at persuading lots of people but still many people believed in it.

...

At this time.

Above the Sahara Desert , a hellicarier that's invisible to the naked eye was hovering there. In a large meeting room, almost all the Avengers were sitting here and looking at each other gravely.

" We're gradually loosing ground at all fronts. If this continues, then in another month or may be even sooner, we'll be reduced to nothing more than slaves of Loki and the Chittauris. "

Natasha spoke first and broke the silence .

" But what can we do ? The nuclear weapons are not working at all and we don't even know how to close that portal. Because as long as it's open, the Chittauris will just keep pouring out. They are endless. "

Thor also spoke with a lost look.

" Forget about that. What I would like to know is who is behind this Illuminati ? There actions are too suspicious. May be they are also related to this mess? "

Tony asked something that everyone wanted to know.

" Fury, do you have anything you would like to say ? "

Roger asked Fury who was sitting in the corner playing with an odd walkie talkie in his hands.

" Natasha is right. Our situation is very critical. If we don't get help soon then what she said might really happen. "

Nick Fury said .

" But who is going to help us ? "

Tony asked Fury.

" Illuminati. "

Nick Fury stood up and said while facing everyone.

" What ? You the leaders of Illuminati ? Then why didn't you tell us before? "

Tony exclaimed.

" Yeah and why do you think they can help us?

Thor also asked confused.

" Well , I had my reasons for not telling you guys earlier. In fact you might know them too Thor. "

Nick said.

" Me? "

" Yes you. If I am not wrong then they are your friends from Asgard. "

" You mean...Well if it's them, then there really might be a chance for us. "

Thor reacted at this time.

" Natasha, I have a special task for you. I want you to enter a Illuminati shelter and try everything you can to contact the higher ups of the Illuminati. Since they are helping people by giving them shelter, then that means at least they are not completely insensitive about Earth's fate. Although they might have an ulterior motive, but currently it's our only option."

Nick Fury ordered Black Widow.

" Yes sir."

Natasha stood up without hesitation and headed out of the room to prepare for departure. Similarly everyone else also stood up and left for their own rooms.

Soon Nick Fury was left alone in the room.

He stood up and came to the see through glass wall . Looking at the desert below, Nick Fury pressed the only button on the walkie talkie he was carrying .

" Well, I didn't expect things to escalate so much. And I can't trust the Illuminati fully either. I think it's about time you come back. "

He murmured in a low voice.
