The Mission

Avengers Tower, New York

"All right chaps, you heard him, we have another job to do" Tony said to everyone

"Stark is right, the Chitauri is nothing compared to the Eternal Fleet, and even the might of Asgard can only delay the inevitable should they decide to invade Midgard. And Grand Admiral Thrawn is one of the most feared person in the universe, as his cruelty caused the destruction of my grandfather's home. We must insure that Earth does not suffer the same fate" Thor grimly replied

"All right, Cap, you will go around the city and help the people here, with another alien invasion we need them to calm down a little.

Banner, you and Stark will immediately go to work, we need a weapon or something to halt their advancement should they tried to land here on Earth.

Barton will go with me to recover as many Chitauri tech as possible I want to have some toys that might be useful in case of another war while you Romanoff will go and secure our 'guest'.

Thor, contact your father or Asgard if they can somehow send supports for us, you can come here, perhaps he can send several more people to help us.

I will talk to every head of the state to inform them about this situation tonight. Get to work everyone, you have your orders" Fury ordered the team

After some scuffle with the STRIKE teams and Alexander Pierce, both the Sceptre and the Cube is safely secured in Fury's hands. Meanwhile nobody noticed a white shadow hiding behind one of the pillars in Stark Tower, while Loki is being kept at an isolated room

At night, the white shadow quickly took the two containers while another shadow, this one a black one is watching yet did nothing as the white shadow escaped with the two items while replacing the stolen items with the same exact container filled with stones to ensure that the weight of the containers remained the same.

A few days later, government officials immediately ordered an evacuation to big cities, as economy and society all over the world is crumbling, the Avengers are tasked to keep the peace and order. The X-Men, Fantastic Four and even several other 'Enchanced' are recruited to help the Avengers maintaining peace across the world.

Their help managed to stabilise the situation and soon, people from all over the world are working together in this tough times.

'The Day Humanity becomes One' labled the press. As it is the first time in history that every country on Earth helped each other, open their borders, and lived together without any discrimination. Developed countries such as the USA, UK, Germany, France, Japan, etc are helping countries that require assistance while every soldier on Earth are united and being prepared for war.

However, without the common enemy, this kind of peace will not last long. Therefore for the first time in history, every country in the UN agreed for now to be under a single banner, the banner of the UN and with the technology recovered from the Chitauri, every Industry is scrambling to develop and mass produce a weapon that could stall the invaders should they come.

Little did they know that the Eternal Fleet is not the only one coming to Earth.

A few days after the Battle of New York, somewhere in Russia

"Damn, this thing is heavy" a young blonde women around early twenties snorted as she carried two boxes to a ruined building in the forest of Russia

"I hate this, why can't it be at an airport? I mean that's where you can transport stuff and send packages to other people. Better yet, why should it be me? why not you? Does being a celebrity means that I have to do all the dirty work for you now?" she grumpily complained to the person who is video calling her

"You know why. I am undercover sis, while you are going on a holiday for the past fifteen years, I have to spy, seduce, and sleep with men either he is fat, skinny or even an old man. Though the fact that I get the money is fine with me." the response came from the other women whose face is seen in the phone.

"Yeah, yeah, I know, but after this I am going to have a massage, Having a scoliosis, lordosis, and other back problem and the fact that we are helping potential enemies to Earth is not a very promising path to have a peaceful death you know? I prefer to die on my own bed, with a book at my hands and children surrounding me, at the age of eighty, or perhaps one hundred and eighty?" the blonde women bites back.

"Quoting Tyrion Lannister and avoiding copyright by changing the words won't give you a dream description of your death you know? But I admit it. it is indeed a good way to die after all that we've been through." responded the other women

"Yeah, yeah. But what about you? If His Grace is truly wanting to start a war to punish humans, what are you going to do?"

"I will think about it, perhaps run duck and cover till you can get me out of this shithole"

"It's a shit plan"

"Either way, once you reached your destination, contact the Grand Admiral, he will send a transport ship to transport the items. I will keep giving them information and if something goes south, we'll meet at Birnin Zana. Your mission at the Golden City is to help King T'Chaka carry as much Vibranium as possible out of Wakanda to the Empire"

"What do you know, the Embassy to the most powerful government in the Universe is located at the 'poorest' and quote the 'poorest' part country on Earth. Very well, take care sis"

"Yes you too" before the connection ends

"Now, beep beep beep" the blonde women is humming to herself while activating a device in her hands

"This is the White Spider, the package is secure, requesting transport from where it all begins" she said to the device before pressing a button and ending the transmission

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Chimera, near Io, Jupiter's moon

"Sir, we have incoming message from our spy in Terra, the message states that both the Scepter and the Cube is ready to be transported. The location of the package is 'where it all begins'"

"Good, send a transport there, Commander Vanto, you will go there and receive the package from our resident spy. Use a ship that can cloak itself from even Asgardian magic." ordered Thrawn

"Yes Grand Admiral" Eli Vanto, Thrawn's old friend immediately leaves to do his order

"What is the status of our fleet captain?" Thrawn asks the captain of his ship, Chimera, a Resurgence-Class Star Destroyer

"The rest of our fleet will be arriving in T-Minus 40 Hours Grand Admiral, but at the moment we have 700 ships and couting which included 10 Star Destroyers, 150 Frigates, and hundreds of Battlecruisers."

"Good, prepare for phase two, the rest of the fleet shall assemble above this red planet about 5 days from Terra."

"Yes Grand Admiral" responded the captain

'Hmm, someone is playing behind the scenes and if the information is correct, then the Mad Titan is the culprit. But what is his endgame? Why is he attacking such a primitive planet? Collecting the Infinity Stones will make him a threat to the Empire and he is not an idiot. He should have sent a infiltration troops to steal the stones to avoid attention. No, there is something else going on here.'

"Captain, launch a spectrometer and focus on this frequency, we shall see if Terra has another secret, perhaps another Infinity Stone that is being well hidden that makes our enemy launch an attack here" Thrawn activated a data hologram of a frequency recorded from the Power Stone which was located in Zakuul

"There seems to be a weird reading sir, the frequency is similar but more.. clouded I'd say, it's like something or someone is hiding the this item"

"Gentlemen, it seems we have found the reason for our enemy's attack on Terra. Send a transmission immediately to the office of the Imperial Intelligence, tell Janus to analyse these frequency coming from Terra, if it is indeed another Infinity Stone, then request assistance for more men, I have a feeling that we are not the only one here" Thrawn grimly ordered his men to work

Opening his device, he immediately contacted another of the Empire's spies on Terra

"Report agent, identification code 'I am fire and life incarnate'"

"Now and forever" the voice from the device replied,

"Agent, we have a situation, there is a potential a third Infinity Stone on your world, track it, find it, and recover it for the Empire. Your support will be given at the Ice Queen's palace. She will be your backup if necessary. Contact us as soon as you manage to locate the Stone. Good Luck"

After which he ended the call when suddenly the hyperspace scan flashed

"Sir we have detected a ship coming out of hyperspace! It is not ours and definitely not Asgard's. It bears the symbol of Triangles and lines crossing it!" a technician said

'Ah the Accusers. It seems that the Kree is coming. Well, well, well, little Ronan, let's see what game your computer boss is playing shall we?' mused Thrawn

For the technician however, upon recognising the symbol, well he shat himself as he is probably going to be in a front row seat of an upcoming war between the three powers. Kree, Asgard, and Zakuul.

For Thrawn however, the game just gets more interesting
