"This is not good at all." Sam said.

"Nope." Rhodes said.

"It gets worse." Tony told them.

Steve and Tony were thrown on one side as Natasha and Bruce fell down. Steve helped Tony up and asked him to put on the suit to which he agreed.

"And now I'm listening." Tony said dryly.

All the agents were running around to defend themselves. Fury got up and called Hill via earpiece who said Number 3 engine was down but a technical worker said it was impossible to make repairs in the air. Hill realized they would go down if they lose another engine and someone needed to patch it outside. Fury called out to Stark who said he was on it.

"You're pretty good at commanding." An impressed Steve said.

"But you're better." Fury told him.

Fury then asked Coulson to initiate lockdown and get to the armory.

Daisy and Bobbi winced, knowing what was coming and Thor and Loki winced too.

Fury then called out to Romanoff whose leg was trapped under a piece of debris. She said she was all right but then saw Bruce struggling with himself and was horrified as that only meant one thing.

"No we're not okay." Natasha said to her on-screen self.

"Because of me." Bruce sighed.

"Don't blame yourself." Thor told him.

Clint and the other rogue agents entered the Helicarrier as Clint gave them all their orders and asked some of them to come with him.

"Damn!" Clint said in shock.

Tony asked Steve to go to Engine 3 where he would meet him and pressed a button, opening a door. The Iron Man suit was inside. He pressed another button and the suit was activated.

"Now that will be awesome." Peter cheered.

Natasha urged Bruce to fight it as two technicians arrived but she gestured them to run off as Bruce continued painfully tearing through his clothes. She swore on her life to get him out of this. "Your life?" A loud guttural voice interrupted her.

"The Hulk is coming." T'Challa said as everyone watched with wide eyes.

Natasha looked in horror as a partially transformed Bruce looked at her and then continued transforming as Natasha managed to free her leg and Bruce completely transformed into Hulk. Natasha looked at him, jaw agape, before he charged at her with a roar. She leapt on some stairs before Hulk smashed them to bits. She started running to avoid him.

"This is the first time I have seen you afraid in any of these recordings." Loki told Natasha.

Loki heard the Hulk's enraged roar and lifting his head up, gave a deeply disturbing smirk.

"All thanks to you, moron." Natasha said dryly.

Fury commanded the technician to put the sun on the left and take them over the water as they would be trapped if they lost one more turbine.

"This does not appear well for anyone present." Vision said.

Steve ripped open a door as 3 agents staggered out and he told Stark he was there. Stark arrived and scanned the area with Jarvis and said he needed to get the cooling system back online and then access the rotors to dislodge the debris. He asked Steve to get to the engine control panel and tell him which relays were at overload position.

"Didn't work out very well, huh!" Benjamin joked and everyone chuckled.

Steve leapt and flipping on a kind of lever reached the other side. He took out the control panel as Tony asked him what it looked like and he said it seemed to run on some form of electricity, to which Tony dryly said he wasn't wrong.

Everyone laughed at that.

"What?" Steve said, "I wasn't a science expert. Not even in the 40's."

"Yeah. You were the Star Spangled Man With A Plan." Bucky joked and everyone laughed as Steve glared at Bucky.

Natasha discreetly moved around, gun raised. Suddenly, Hulk emerged and roared.

Everyone jumped at that.

"Now that was scary." Hill said.

"Eh. Seen worse." Logan told her.

Natasha shot the pipe above him, staggering him. He recovered and rushed her. She ran off in a narrow space to save her life and Hulk ran after her, smashing everything in his way. With a light smack of his hand, Natasha flying and she crashed into a crate.

"Doesn't look good." Bucky said as him and Natasha gripped hands.

Natasha managed to sit up and had her back to the crate. Hulk was about to hit her when a blur smashed Hulk through the wall.

"Okay, who was that?" Wanda asked as the only person she had seen run in a blur so far was her deceased brother.

Hulk and Thor crashed through the wall, splintering it into bits as the workers nearby watched.

"It was you?" A shocked Wanda asked.

"Yes, little witch." Thor said.

"Why don't you use that much of speed?" Tony asked.

"Because of my Asgardian physiology, my speed generates a lot of energy." Thor said.

"So using it too much on Earth can cause destruction around me just due to the force I generate." Odinson said.

"Wow! Didn't know that." Storm said.

"Well, I'm guessing you're the second fastest person now after my brother." Wanda said, "Sorry Cap. You got pushed to a third."

"I can live with that." Steve sighed.

"Of course you can. You're Captain America. The epitome of humility." Scott said and everyone chuckled.

The two slowly rose up, staring each other down while the workers ran off for their lives. The two Titans stood facing each other, ready to fight.

"So it begins." Thor said.

"Yup." Bruce agreed.

"Battle of the Titans." Loki said.

"Beginning of a friendly rivalry." Odinson said.

Hulk roared and attacked with a punch which Thor backed to avoid before ducking to avoid a smack. He then punched the indestructible monster hard, staggering him back. Hulk raised his fist and brought it down on the Prince of Asgard. Thor blocked with one hand but found his opponent's strength humongous even for his standards so he used his other hand too, trying to push the Hulk's hand back. Unfortunately for him, with all his strength, he only barely managed to hold Hulk's hand back.

"Damn! You two are strong enough to actually give each other competition." Hope commented.

Thor tried to reason with Banner, telling him they were not enemies and to think. What Hulk did next almost shocked Thor more than Loki's betrayal. He used the hand to lift Thor up and punched him hard, crashing him through some crates.

"Ouch!" Aunt May said.

"Now that looked pretty bad." Bobbi said.

"The angrier the Hulk gets, the stronger he gets." Bruce said.

Iron Man kicked some debris away before looking at the conditions of everything around him. Steve said relays were intact and Tony said even if he cleared the rotors, the thing won't re-engage without a jump so he needed to get in there and push. Steve said Tony would get shredded if the thing got up to speed.

"So you know a little bit after all." Natasha joked.

"I'm not a scientist but I'm not stupid." Steve told her.

Tony asked him to reverse polarity long enough for him to engage mac lever but Steve asked him to speak in simpler terms and Tony asked him to stand by a red lever that would slow the rotors down. Steve leapt to It and waited.

"Well, not stupid but not a scientist either." Steve said.

Thor crashed through some more crates. As he got up, he felt some blood oozing out of his nose. Putting his finger there, he looked at his blood and smiled. It had been a long time since a foe had made him bleed on the battlefield. He was going to enjoy this.

"Warrior culture eh!" Daisy asked.

"Yes." Thor said, "While I have tempered myself, who doesn't love a good fight?"

"I sure do." Odinson said.

"Sif definitely liked one." Daisy said.

"Well, she is the Goddess of War." Loki reminded her.

Thor raised his hand as Hulk rushed him. Just when Hulk was near, Mjolnir crashed through some crates, finding its way to its owner's hand. Thor smashed Hulk hard on the jaw, throwing him on a plane on the process which broke on impact.

"Ouch!" Peter said.

"Even you are no match for Mjolnir." Thor said.

"But I can get stronger." Bruce said.

"You're assuming I'll let you fight long enough to get stronger." Odinson said.

Hulk then roared angrily and broke a wing of the plane before throwing it on the charging Thor. Thor slid on his knees to avoid it. The wing shattered a car behind him. Thor got up and threw Mjolnir on Hulk. Hulk tried to catch it but it flew with him. The two fell on the ground. Hulk tried to lift it but couldn't as the hammer deemed him unworthy. His feet sank into the ground as he tried to lift the hammer.

"Wow!" Clint said as he looked at with an agape jaw, "So there is an enchantment after all."

"You of all people should know." Thor said, "You saw me failing to lift it when I was unworthy."

"Good point." Clint shrugged.

"If Hulk couldn't lift it, I have no chance." Bruce sighed.

"And now that hammer is broken." Fury said.

"You have no idea what's possible." Loki echoed Hela's words.

The distraction was all Thor needed to kick him on the face with a leap, staggering him back again. Before Hulk could react, Thor picked up Mjolnir and leapt on Hulk's back, holding him in a chokehold with Mjolnir as Hulk staggered violently.

"Clash of the Titans." Rhodes said with wide eyes.

Fury told Hill he needed full evac but as she walked, a grenade landed in front of her. She tried to shout out a warning but it exploded, sending her and other agents back.

"This sucks." Sam said.

"When does it not?" Bobbi asked sarcastically.

"The answer to that is- never!" Logan said.

"I know right!" Storm said.

Two agents snuck in, guns raised. Fury grabbed one from behind and threw him down before shooting the other down. He then shot the one he had thrown down while Hill shot down another agent who was aiming at Fury from behind.

"Underrated badass." Bucky said to Hill.

"Thanks." Hill said.

"Well, I always appreciate fellow Canadians." Logan said dryly and everyone chuckled.

Coulson walked towards a door as the announcement echoed and he completed his retinal scan. Hulk smashed Thor and himself onto an upper level. Before Thor could get up, Hulk lifted him and threw him off.

"Looking bad for you." Bobbi said.

"I let him hit me." Thor revealed.

"What? Why?" Natasha asked.

"I figured if he was busy hitting me, he wouldn't have time to damage anything else or kill anyone." Odinson said and everyone felt their respect for him go up, realizing why he was worthy of Mjolnir.

"Well, sorry about that." Bruce said to Thor.

"Don't blame yourself." Natasha told him again.

An agent informed Fury that Hulk and Thor were on research level 4 as Hill said Hulk would tear the place down and Fury commanded to get his attention. Hill asked an agent to distract Hulk and not get too close.

"Distance doesn't matter unfortunately." Bruce sighed.

The agent flew to where Thor and Hulk were fighting and as Hulk threw Thor off, he fired, shattering the glass. Hulk turned to him angrily as he said the target was angry.

Everyone chuckled in spite of the tense situation.

Thor slid away to avoid the bullets.

"Why're you avoiding the bullets?" Bobbi asked, "I'm pretty sure you're bullet-proof."

"Doesn't meant they are not annoying." Thor pointed out.

Hulk leapt on the jet and started smashing it. The agent tried to fly off with his jetpack but Hulk grabbed him and threw him off. He managed to produce a parachute and used it to safely make his way to the ground.

"Lucky day for you, bub." Logan said to the agent.

As Hulk continued smashing the jet, it exploded, sending him flying off.

"On my way to meet the security guard." Bruce said.

Iron Man used his beam to weaken a piece of debris lodged between the rotors before jumping on it, sending it down. Steve noticed some agents arriving below them. One of them suddenly threw a grenade and Steve leapt to the other side to avoid.

"Oh my God!" Pepper said in shock.

Steve then leapt down and punched an agent down before kicking the other away and throwing another out. Another man fired at him but Steve threw a piece of debris at him and he jumped away to avoid. Steve then leapt up and picking up a gun, exchanged gunfire with the agent.

"Adjusting to modern weaponry?" Natasha asked.

"Yup." Steve said.

"And do you like it?" T'Challa asked.

"Yup." Steve said again.

Fury and the others engaged in a gunfight with the controlled agents before Clint fired an arrow which exploded, sending some agents down. Clint fired another arrow which made the computers malfunction. Fury fired at him but he walked off. The Helicarrier started toppling.

"Sorry." Clint said.

"I think I should be the one to say that." Loki said.

Sitwell told Fury they had lost engine one and Barton had taken out their systems. Fury realized he was headed for the detention lab and asked if anybody copied. "This is Agent Romanoff." Natasha responded, finally recovering from what she had just experienced, "I copy." She made her way to her destination.

"Now that's my agent." Bucky said and both of them smiled at each other as everyone felt the sexual tension between them and seemed uncomfortable.

"Guys, get a room." Scott said and everyone chuckled.

"They will, after this recording." Hope said and everyone laughed and Natasha and Bucky looked at the screen.

Fury told Tony they were losing altitude and he started pushing the rotors as Steve engaged in gunfight with the agent and suddenly slipped and started falling before brandishing a rope to hang on.

"Damn!" Sam said.

"And they consider Barton the least harmful Avenger." Fury said dryly and everyone knew not to underestimate Clint Barton.

Thor walked towards Loki's cell, only to see him walking out of it. He leapt at Loki, Mjolnir raised, only to fall into the cell. He got up and looked back to see Loki fading away while the real Loki shut the door. "Are you ever not going to fall for that?" Loki asked mockingly.

"I didn't the last time." Thor said and Loki sighed. Everyone decided they wanted to see that.

Clint was walking through the dark passage when he sensed someone behind him and turning around, fired as Natasha narrowly dodged but Clint kicked her away. He tried to smack her with his bow but she kicked him away and jumping down, used a pillar as a support and kicked him away again. She leapt away to avoid another arrow as he leapt after her.

"When did you get better than me?" Clint asked her.

"Ever since you started focusing only on archery and not on improving your fighting skills." Natasha said dryly.

The two exchanged blows as Natasha grabbed his bowstring and he pinned her to the railing and it her but she punched him away and both of them brandished knives.

"Getting worse and worse." Peter said.

"Yup." Benjamin agreed.

Thor hit the cell with Mjolnir but only the glass cracked while the stability decreased. Loki said they should test Thor's immortality. That moment, the agent with Loki fell down and the two turned to see Coulson arrive, holding a strange weapon. He told Loki to move away and he complied before pointing to the weapon as Coulson said this was what they had made from the Destroyer and even he didn't know what it did as it activated and glowed.

"He did later." Bobbi said as Daisy, Thor, Odinson and Loki watched the scene with wide eyes, knowing what was coming.

The gun was slowly activating when Loki stabbed Coulson from behind. "NOOOOOOOOOOO!"

"NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!" Daisy yelled in despair as tears dropped from her eyes on seeing Coulson's first death and Bobbi put an arm around her.

Everyone wondered how close Daisy was to Coulson to react like this.

Thor and Odinson were breathing heavily, feeling some guilt as Loki looked at the screen with wide eyes, ashamed of himself.

Tony looked distressed as Pepper held his hand for comfort and he squeezed back.

Natasha and Clint were saddened by the scene too but they knew that something didn't add up. There was no record of any Daisy Johnson in SHIELD before Coulson's death and he had never mentioned her. They had also noticed the glares Fury was receiving from her and Bobbi. Something was up.

Fury closed his one eye sadly as him and Hill exchanged a look.

Peter, Wanda and Aunt May put their hands over their mouths in horror as Logan and Storm simply watched.

Steve sadly lowered his head as Bucky, Sam and Rhodes did the same as a gesture of respect.

"Should we continue?" Benjamin asked Daisy after 5 minutes and wiping her tears, she nodded. Benjamin pressed the play button again as Loki ran a hand over his head.

The fake Loki disappeared in front of Coulson while the real Loki pulled the scepter out of Coulson's back. Coulson fell down, panting heavily due to his wound while Loki walked towards the controls. As Thor glared at him, Loki pressed the button and the cell fell down, with Thor in it.

"Shit!" Sam said.

Natasha blocked Clint's blow and punched him before blocking another one and twisted his arm before he tried to slice her with a knife but she avoided and grabbed his hand and he grabbed her hair before she bit him and flipped him down and punched him, making his head hit the railing. With a sigh, Clint looked up. Natasha noticed his eyes weren't blue any longer but their natural color. As his eyes flashed with recognition, Clint said in confusion, "Natasha...?" That moment, Natasha punched him out.

"Why did you do that?" Clint asked.

"Better safe than sorry." Natasha said and Fury smiled with pride.

The cell was falling on the ground at full speed, straight into the steel trap. Thor was thrown around inside it, trying to gain momentum. Finally, he put his feet on one side and leapt out, breaking the cell as it crashed into the trap while Thor fell face first on the ground and continued sliding.

"Damn!" Rhodes said.

"So you got out of a containment unit made for me." Bruce said, impressed.

"That is why I am mighty!" Thor smirked.

Loki was walking away when Coulson said he would lose because even though the heroes were scattered and the floating fortress fell from the sky, Loki lacked conviction. Before he could retort, the Destroyer gun blasted Loki and sent him flying through the wall. Loki staggered up as Coulson said, "So that's what it does."

Everyone clapped happily at the scene as Loki just sighed.

Tony roared and using all his strength, pushed the rotors hard, finally making them work and sustain the Helicarrier in the air. He asked Cap for a lever as he climbed back up. Tony got trapped between the rotors.

"Oh my God!" Pepper said with wide eyes as her and Tony squeezed each other's hands.

"I am here, honey." Tony assured her.

Steve managed to climb up and pulled the lever slowing the rotors down long enough for Tony to get out.

"Phew!" Peter said.

As another agent arrived to fire at Steve, Tony flew at him at full speed and knocked him out before lying next to him as his suit was low on power. Fury saw Coulson lying on the ground. He took the Destroyer gun away and knelt next to him as Coulson apologized.

"You don't need to." Fury said.

Fury asked him to stay awake but he said he was clocking out. "Not an option", Fury said. "It's okay, boss." Coulson assured him, "This was never gonna work if they didn't have something to..." Coulson stared at Fury with a glassy look without seeing. He was gone. Fury winced at the sight, a rare case of him showing emotion. One of his best agents and oldest friends…. gone!

Daisy put a hand to her mouth as everyone looked saddened and Bobbi comforted Daisy who had tears in her eyes.

Loki didn't say a word, just putting his head in his hands.

Fury got up as the medics arrived to take the body away. Pressing his comms, he broke the news, "Agent Coulson is down."

"Unfortunately." Tony said in a sad voice.

Hill, Natasha, Steve and Tony all heard the announcement and seemed sad. Later- Steve and Tony sat around a table as Fury paced around and Hill stood in a corner. "These were in Phil Coulson's jacket." Fury said as he held Phil's 'Captain America' trading cards in his hands, "Guess he never did get you to sign them." He threw them on the table in front of Steve and Tony as Hill watched from the corner. They were covered in blood.

"Should have signed them." Steve sighed sadly.

Logan glared at Fury with a snarl for his manipulation and everyone wondered what that was about.

Steve picked up one card which showed him giving a salute and looked at it with guilt-filled eyes. Fury said they were dead in the air and the communications were down. Tony was looking down to hide his grief. "Lost my one good eye." Fury said as he looked up with a sad smile, "Maybe I had that coming." He then admitted they were using the Teserract to build an arsenal of weapons but he didn't put all his chips on his number because he was playing something even riskier.

"Something not approved but worked like a miracle." Tony said.

Looking up to face everyone, Fury said, "There was an idea." Pointing at Stark, he said, "Stark knows this. It's called The Avengers Initiative." Turning to Steve, Fury explained, "The idea was to bring together a group of remarkable people, see if they could become something more. See if they could work together when we needed them to, to fight the battles that we never could." He then looked at Tony, whose back was turned to him, "Phil Coulson died still believing in that idea, in heroes." Tony immediately got off his seat and walked away. "Well." Fury said with a sigh, "It's an old fashioned notion."

"And worked like a charm." Hill said.

Thor slowly walked towards where Mjolnir was lying in the grassy field. He raised his hand, trying to call it to him but it didn't come. Thor realized his grief and anger over Coulson's death had temporarily severed his link with Mjolnir. Pressing his fist, he started calming himself down.

"Why can't you call it?" Peter asked.

"My grief and anger over Coulson's death temporarily severed my link to it." Thor explained.

"You fell out of the sky." Bruce groaned as he managed to sit up. He looked at himself and realized he was naked and blackened. He looked around and saw the building was smashed really badly. He looked up to see a guard. Bruce asked if he had hurt anybody and the guard said there was no one around to get hurt though he had scared the hell out of some pigeons.

"That is better." Aunt May sighed.

"Yup." Bruce agreed.

Bruce said he was lucky as the guard said it was good aim and he was awake when he fell. The guard had seen him falling when he was big and green and buck ass nude.

Everyone chuckled a little at that.

The guard tossed Bruce some clothes and asked if he was an alien from outer space but Bruce said he wasn't and the guard realized he had a condition.

"I do." Bruce said.

"And the aliens are coming." Tony said.

A strapped Clint shook his head as Natasha said he would be all right and he realized he needed to flush Loki out. Clint asked if she ever had someone take her brain and play and she said she had.

Bucky and Natasha held each other's hand tightly, having gone through the same thing.

Natasha unstrapped Clint and told she had hit him hard on the head to cause cognitive recalibration and he thanked her before asking how many agents he had killed and she told him not to blame himself and that this was Loki, monsters and magic which they hadn't been trained for.

"Nice points." Hill agreed.

Clint didn't know where Loki had gone off unfortunately but knew he was going to make his play soon that very day. Natasha said they needed to stop him, they being whoever's left. "Well, if I put an arrow in Loki's eye socket, I'd sleep better I suppose." Clint said.

"Now that is Clint!" Sam said.

"And you almost did it." Loki said.

Clint asked Natasha why she wanted to wade into a war as she was a spy, not a soldier. He asked what Loki had done to her and she said, "I got red in my ledger, I'd like to wipe it out."

Everyone felt great sympathy for Natasha.

Steve asked Tony if Coulson was married as Tony remembered the cellist. Steve apologized, saying he seemed like a good man as Tony called him an idiot.

"Hey!" Daisy said angrily as she glared at Tony, "He just lost his life and you're going to call him an idiot?"

"I'm sorry." Tony apologized, "I shouldn't have said that."

"He cannot process his emotions properly." Pepper told Daisy.

"I was- I was angry at him for dying." Tony said sadly and Daisy's expression softened, "I realized later how wrong that was."

Steve asked the reason and Tony said for taking on Loki alone. Steve said he was doing his job and Tony said he was out of his league and should have waited. Steve said sometimes there wasn't a way out and asked if this was the first time he had lost a soldier. Tony snapped they were soldiers and he wouldn't march to Fury's fife.

"It wasn't the first time." Steve sighed and Tony nodded.

Steve said he wasn't either because he had the same blood on his hands as Loki.

Fury winced, knowing it wasn't entirely false.

Steve said they needed to put it behind them and get the job done. Loki needed a power source and they could put together a list. Tony said Loki had made it personal and hit them where they live. He wanted to beat them with an audience. Steve agreed, remembering the act at Stuttgart as Tony said this was previews and now they were in for the opening night and Loki was a full-tail diva.

"I'm flattered." Loki said.

Doing gestures with his hands, Tony said, "He wants flowers, he wants parades, he wants a monument built to the skies with his name plastered." He stopped as Steve gave him a knowing look. "Son of a bitch", he muttered as he walked off.

"Only I can have that." Tony said and everyone chuckled.

Erik Selvig was working on the machine that would open the portal- right on top of Stark Industries.

"Damn!" Rhodes said.

Bruce put on his shirt as the guard asked if he was a big guy who got little or a little guy who got large.

"I think that would be me." Scott said and everyone chuckled.

Bruce said he didn't know at this point and needed to get to New York before shaking his head as the guard said his mind was confused and his body was all over the place.

"He isn't wrong." Bruce said.

"I know where I could do the most good, but it's where I can do the most harm." Bruce admitted to the guard. "Well, that's no different than anybody else." The guard said.

"Wise guy." Steve said.

The guard said he was stuck in New Jersey so Bruce could take his motorcycle. Bruce said he didn't know which way to. The guard took off his cap and said Bruce's mind was already made up and the rest of him would follow as he tossed him the keys.

"He was a nice guy." Bruce said.

Steve arrived at Clint's and Natasha's room and said it was time to go and asked if she could fly one of those jets.

"Didn't you see me flying one earlier?" Natasha asked.

"Right." Steve sighed, "Stupid question." [1]

Clint walked up to them and wiping his face, said he could. Steve asked if he had a suit. Clint nodded so Steve told him to suit up.

"And Hawkeye's in." Clint smirked.

Thor finally picked up Mjolnir and looked at it. Steve armed himself with his shield. Clint strapped his quiver to his back. Natasha activated her gauntlets. Tony worked on the Iron Man helmet and finally, the eyes glowed again. Thor raised Mjolnir and lightning struck it as his clothes started transforming into his battle armor while wind blew around him. Tony was in his armor, all decked out and started flying. Steve, Natasha and Clint walked towards a Quinjet, all suited up.

"Now that was awesome!" Peter cheered.

"I wasn't in it." Bruce said.

"You get something better later." Odinson said.

They reached the Quinjet. "You guys aren't authorized to be in here." The agent said, trying to stop them. Steve said casually, "Son, just don't."

"Badass Cap." Scott cheered.

Fury was looking at the cards as Hill walked up next to him and said the cards had been in Coulson's locker, not in his jacket.

"What?" Steve said as everyone turned to Fury angrily.

"They were in the locker?" Natasha asked.

"You son of a bitch!" Tony shot out.

"Why did you lie?" Thor asked.

"That's what you do, don't you?" Clint asked.

"You needed the push." Fury said, "You were dysfunctional."

"So you will lie to get us to be functional?" Bruce asked.

"Guys, I know you don't trust him right now." Benjamin said, "And I understand why. But understand why he did it too. And we are here to move past everything."

Everyone sighed and turned back to the screen.

"This isn't over." Tony said.

"Nope. It has just begun, bub." Logan said, knowing the secrets would be out after this recording.

"They needed the push." Fury said. That was when a Quinjet flew off as an unauthorized departure was announced. Fury realized they had found Loki and asked to get their communications back up as he wanted his eye on everything and Hill complied.

"So it begins." Steve said.

"So it begins indeed." Odinson agreed.
