Romance

Looking over the battlefield, Nick Fury felt quite numb.

Today, he finally understood; what being a frog at the bottom of a well-meant.

Today, he saw Burton, though useless, still, a valuable asset, going into dreamland.

Today, he saw a 'super-soldier' getting knocked out in just one throw.

Today, he saw two self-proclaimed gods in a situation worse than mortal beggers.

Today, he saw his billion-dollar army running like headless chickens.

Moreover, all this didn't happen because of some carefully executed plan or in a war spanning across decades.

All it took was one guy's casual whim and a couple of minutes. Damn, Fucker wasn't even serious.

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

Hugging Natasha with his left hand and being followed by Loki, Li Qiye looked at the scene in front of him.

Natasha remembered what the little earthworm called Li Qiye, and decided to beseech him with a proper title.

"Your Excellency, this humble maid wants to ask you for a favor," whispered Natasha, ever so softly and sweetly.

"You should call me, Young Noble. I'm not that old. Tell me, what do you want?" Li Qiye said while looking at her lovingly.

Natasha quickly turned towards Li Qiye's face, and without giving him any time, placed her lips on Li Qiye's. She passionately held his neck and kissed with unrestrained boldness.

Breathing deeply, she let his tongue roam around her mouth, slowly twisting her tongue to match his rhythm.

Li Qiye held her face gently and savored the sweet taste.

Natasha felt like the kiss lasted a lifetime. She was so entranced by the kiss that she just wanted to melt in his arms. Even when her breath fell short, she didn't stop.

Finally, when they separated, her face was completely red, just like a ripe strawberry. She looked so delicate, yet so savory.

Natasha tried her best to calm her madly beating heart. She tried her hardest, but she found no way to suppress the giddiness and excitation she was feeling. Something was slowly taking root in her heart.

Initially, she thought she could control Li Qiye with a simple honey trap or seduction. After all, she had gone through training based on such scenarios.

That's the reason she came close to him and even kissed him. But the moment she kissed him, it was like, an entirely new Fate and Future was being written for her.

Natasha no longer felt that she was in control. She just wanted to stay near him, kiss him for eternity, maybe even have childr... Anything, as long as she could stay with him.

She no longer aspired to be a part of Avengers or S.H.I.E.L.D or even Earth. She just yearned to give up her life of fighting and just stay as his... Maid.

She steeled her heart one last time, for the sake of all humans on earth.

Still with her ripe red face and moist eyes: "Can you forgive our this one offense," she softly asked, without a hint of her former seductiveness,

"Anything for you," Li Qiye gave her a loving smile, while tenderly patting her head.

With a casual wave, Li Qiye activated the Time Scripture, and instantly, time started reversing.

All destroyed buildings went back to their original state. The crater formed by the Peacebringer also went back to being a plain road. Everything went back to the time when the battle started.

Even the avengers felt their injuries rapidly healing. It took only a couple of seconds before broken bones were mended, torn skin was healed, fleshy bits, and spilled blood flowed back with time and returned to their original positions.

The Avengers did a thorough scan of their body and were surprised to find that their bodies have returned to its peak state.

No scar or injury was left that suggested that they had just been in a complete one-sided beatdown. If not for the Phantom pain they were feeling, they might have even believed that it was all just a dream, a bad dream.

Natasha had no words to describe what she was feeling. She was already so entranced and awed by his magical feats, and then he goes on to reverse time itself.

Throwing away her doubts, she just leaned into his chest. It felt like even if the sky falls, she would be safe here.

The Avengers excluding Natasha regroup awkwardly, they didn't know what to do, after being defeated and healed by the same person.

"W-Uh, What are you gonna do with Stark?" Captain America, who was the de facto leader, decided to speak first.

"Well, he saved me. Moreover, this might sound ridiculous, but he revived me," Tony, who was stunned speechless throughout the battle; finally, decided to speak.

"Revive. As in bringing back from death," Fury confirmed, hoping it to be some casual tongue slip up.

"Ahh. Y-Yes. I was dead for quite some time, "Tony awkwardly said.

Invincible.

Authority over Time.

Authority over Life.

Authority over Death.

Just, WHO THE FUCK IS THIS GUY?

Fury felt he was losing grip over reality. He had seen gods, and they by no means were this strong.

"Thor, you weak-assed pansy. Don't call yourself a god, ever again," Fury shouted in frustration.

Thor has always been a Hot-Headed and reckless individual. The one-sided beating he got from Li Qiye, enraged him. He couldn't swallow the humiliation.

Now he was even afraid of calling himself a God in his mind. He hated this feeling.

He ached to at least hit Li Qiye, once was enough. However, he knew it was nothing more than a fool's dream.

Yet, slowly losing himself in anger and humiliation, he couldn't stop his body. Just like a guy fueled by nothing more than anger and vengeance, he threw all cautions into the wind.

[Asgard]

In the magnificent throne room.

The entire room, including the throne itself, was made of a Gold and Uru superalloy.

It had an ascending step pattern throne. The throne itself was shaped like a mighty warrior's headgear.

On the throne, an aged figure was sleeping. He had the aura of a powerful and experienced individual, one who has withered with time.

He was Odin Borson. The greatest king of Asgardian history.

Suddenly, he opens his eyes and shouts: "He dares! I shall personally gut him."

Standing up swiftly, he makes a beeline towards his vault: "I might be old, but I will never let such an act of disrespect pass."

In a matter of seconds, Odin was now in his war gear. Donning the complete Asgardian armor and wielding Gungnir.

He made his way towards the Bifrost bridge, though it was still unusable he wanted to confirm why Heimdall hasn't informed him regarding earth.

Arriving at the Bifrost bridge, the first thing he saw was the unconscious Heimdall.

Quickly, supporting him up, he saw the blood coming out of his eyes. Gently placing him at a secure place he stood up. Just when he was about to leave, something clamped his leg.

"Earth has a new master," releasing his hold, Heimdall passed out again.

"Sigh."

"Not just earth-"

A heavy sigh unconsciously leaked from his mouth. Shaking his head, he quickly conjured Dark Magic and made his way towards Earth.
