Avengers Meeting(Part 1)

(2483 Words!)

After having his Shawarma, Anos left the restaurant completely oblivious to the meeting the Avengers are holding to discuss about how they are to treat and what they should do about him.

(Meanwhile at S.H.I.E.L.D HQ)

After everyone had gathered at the helicarrier, they were guided to the meeting room by another agent. Once they arrived, Thor placed Tony on one of the chairs before moving to sit on another chair. After everyone was seated, Nick Fury entered the meeting room with an annoyed and frustrated look on his face. Tony noticed his irritation and decided to be a dick and annoy him further.

Tony: "Why Director Fury, you look like your in a bad mood. Did something bad happen?"

Tony asked with a shit eating grin causing Nick Fury to groan in frustration before glaring at Tony who smiled victoriously and spoke up.

Nick Fury: "If you must know Stark, I am in a very bad mood."

Tony cut him off as he spoke once more.

Tony: "Aren't you always in a bad mood though?"

Tony's words got a chuckle out of a few of the members. And Nick Fury's face to turn into a scowl making Tony smirk even more as he jabbed at the one eyed man once more.

Tony: "Woah there Director, better watch your stress levels, otherwise, you won't be growing hair anytime soon."

Tony's words caused Nick Fury endless amount of frustration as he wanted nothing more than to choke Stark to death. The worst part was that Thor was laughing out loud and Tony had a victorious smile plastered on his face. Taking a deep breath to calm himself down, he turned to Natasha and spoke.

Nick Fury: "Agent Romanoff, could you share the video you recorded?"

Natasha: "Yes Sir."

Saying those words, Natasha shared the video on the holographic monitor. It showed most of the invasion from her point of view, however, she skipped it all the way to the ending. But something strange happened that caused the usually calm and compossed Agent to scream.

Natasha: "What's This?!"

It wasn't just her who was shocked. Almost all the Avengers excluding Tony and Nick Fury were shocked that the video only showed Tony's armour appearing out of nowhere, and all the other Avengers raising their weapons against Tony. Tony frowned as he watched the video, in it he saw how Captain America was making gestures to someone that seemed invisible, and how he was dragged before being handed over to Captain America.

Natasha paused the video as she all but screamed.

Natasha: "Somethings not right here! W-"

But Nick Fury cut her off as he spoke.

Nick Fury: "Agent Romanoff, calm yourself first, questions are to be asked later."

Natasha took Fury's advice and calmed herself down and nodded her head. She continued the video now trying to get as much details as possible. Then something happened that astounded the Avengers now that they actually got the chance to focus. They were all dragged into what seemed to be another world. It was exactly like theirs but it all looked like.

Tony: "A mirror's reflection"

Starks words got everyone's attention as he spoke.

Tony: "I'm not sure who did it or how they did it, but it looks like they somehow managed to create a secondary world similar to ours, but it looks like it's one giant mirror reflection of New York. Take a look."

Saying those words, Tony pointed out how many of the streets were exactly them same but the streets name and everything was reversed in a way similar to how it looks like when one stares in a mirror.

Nick Fury silently noted down Tony's words as Tony continued.

Tony: "This shouldn't be humanly possible to make an entirely separate space from ours with every details only slightly different because of this worlds mirror like state."

They continued watching as a group of people wearing Shaolin like clothes all came out of a portal and a bald monk kneeled before nothing. Then came a massive beam of light that appeared and out of this light was an army of armoured individuals and a single man with an eyepatch and a spear was at the forefront of this group. And from Thors scream of shock they learned how Odin looks like.

They also saw Odin and Yao with a look of anger directed at Thor before Odin disappeared and smashed Thors head into the ground and started profusely apologising to nothing but air. They also saw the last group with a bunch of beautiful woman, and some handsome me all wearing rather revealing Toga's, and at their forefront was a rather obesse looking man with a bunch of others behind him kneeling. After a few minutes of silence, all the groups started introducing themselves.

Yao of Kamar Taj who holds the title of sorcerer supreme, Odin of Asgard who holds the title of the All Father, and Zeus from Olympus who holds the title of the King of Gods. Yet once more not a single word was uttered as Yao spoke of a prophecy before she handed over an ancient looking scroll that was doing nothing more than floating in midair before the 3 groups started trembling in fear. Then the scroll was returned to Yao. And after many more talks between the three groups and nothing, everyone breathed a sigh of relief before leaving. However, when Yao asked to pass a message to Nick Fury, he couldn't help his eyebrows twitching at the words children pretending to play heroes.

Nick Fury also didn't like Hawkeyes arrogant reply. Although true that keeping him as a potential ally is the best option, he still didn't like Hawkeyes words and decided to discipline him later.

However, the one thing that worried Fury the most and was the ending of the video which was that of Yao's words.

Yao: "Arrogance will get you killed. Know that the one who caused the cracks to appear was Anos Voldigoad. His title as The Demon King Of Tyranny isn't just for show."

And like that, the video ended leaving everyone with even more questions than they had before. Nick Fury took a deep breath as he spoke.

Nick Fury: "Agent Romanoff, what were you about to say?"

Natasha came out of her thoughts at her superiors words and swiftly replied to them.

Natasha: "Something isn't right with the video. Everyone besides Tony had seen the entire interaction, and we even saw how this so called "Demon Lord" looked like."

This time it was Tony who asked Natasha a question.

Tony: "Hey Natasha, how did this "Demon Lord" look like? "

Natasha was about to reply before she froze. This action caught everyone's attention as she spoke, her voice trembling and full of confusion.

Natasha: "I-I Can't Remember how he looks?!"

Nick Fury and Tony were both surprised at the exclamation. They turned to the other Avengers and they too had an expression of horror, confusion, and disbelief.

Nick Fury saw this as his mind raced with endless possibilities of what or how this might have happened. Composing himself as best he can, Nick Fury spoke.

Nick Fury: "Do all of you still remember what happened before, during, and after the alien invasion?"

All the Avengers nodded their heads to Nick Fury's question. Nick Fury then asked another question.

Nick Fury: "Do you still remember the looks of everyone there? Such as Yao, Odin, and Zeus?"

All the Avengers nodded their heads except Tony who replied rather blankly.

Tony: "Um excuse me, but did you all forget I was unconscious for most of what happened?"

Nick Fury: "We indeed do remember that Stark. But considering how you don't seem to have any trouble rembering the faces of literally anyone else, then should we rule out this 'Demon Lord' to be using some kind of mind Manipulation?"

Captain America: "I think so director. There's is always an inherent flaw to any ability. If he really did mess with our minds, why would he just erase "Himself" from our memories? Besides, as a God, shouldn't Thor have some form of mind Manipulation resistance?"

Everyone turned to see Thor who was looking lost and confused. Nick Fury didn't care what sort of dillema Thor is facing, he needed answers, and considering Thor is a literal God, he's their best bet to get more info on this anomaly. So, Nick Fury called out to Thor.

Thor who was lost in thought came back as he heard his name being called out and replied.

Thor: "You called for me?"

Nick Fury nodded his head as he spoke.

Nick Fury: "What do you know of this? Is there any records or something similar to this in Asgard?"

Thor had a thoughtful look on his face before he shook his head and reply.

Thor: "I do not know. All my life I was growing up to be an Asgardian warrior, I never bothered studying much."

Nick Fury sighed in disappointment. He should have expected that Thor was nothing more than a muscle headed fighter. However, Thors next words brought a little more intrigue to Nick Fury.

Thor: "Although, the title "Demon King Of Tyranny" does bring back some memories of my childhood."

Nick Fury and the other Avengers all looked intrigued as Thor continued.

Thor: "When I was a child, my mother used to always tell us stories of this Demon King. How he was a demon that punished bad children."

Hawkeye clicked his tounge in annoyance as he spoke.

Hawkeye: "If all the info you have on 5his person is a damned children's story, we might as well just give up. So long as this person isn't doing anything wrong that warrants danger to us or the people, we can just have our agents keep an eye on him and exterminate him should he become a danger."

Nicm Fury frowned in disappointment as he spoke, glaring at him.

Nick Fury: "Agent Barton, need I remind you that as an agent of SHIELD, we are expecting you to take your job seriously?"

Hawkeye sighed as he replied.

Hawkeye: "Look here Director, I know what you mean, but even if it was a fluke, he still has the backing of 3 groups of unknown power. And if what was said in the video is true, the unless we have the ability to kill gods, we cannot do shit against him. If anything happens to him do you think we can deal with the aftermath of going to war not only against Asgard, but also Olympus?"

Everyone became stunned hearing Hawkeyes words as they looked at him with surprised faces making his eyebrow twitch in annoyance. But he still continued speaking.

Hawkeye: "I may have not taken this person seriously before, and I know my arrogant actions were wrong, but now that he's truly a possible threat, we can do nothing more than pray that he's a good guy. Cause if you ask me, going to war against two different mythological gods doesn't sound very pleasing you know? Especially if what's written about them is true."

Tony was the first to realise something odd in Hawkeyes sentence as he spoke.

Tony: "Oi Hawkeye, im genuinely surprised you can actually make a solid argument. And here I thought you were nothing more than a living aimbot. However, you forgot to include the Chinese monk, and her group of warriors. Any particular reason for that?"

At Tony's words, they all looked at Hawkeye as well.

Hawkeye looked annoyed by Tony's words before he scratched the back of his head sheelishly as he spoke.

Hawkeye: "I mean I was hoping that they would be on our side since their "Leader" said she was earth's guardian."

Natasha Snorted as she spoke.

Natasha: "And you think they will fight alongside us if we ever do get attacked by Asgard and Olympus? Besides, if she really was earth's guardian, why didn't she come help us during the invasion?"

The others couldn't exactly refute her words, but still decided to stay quiet. However, before anyone could continue, Nick Fury spoke up.

Nick Fury: "Moving on from this subject that we will come back to, Thor, could you continue with your story?"

Thor looked confused as he looked at Fury and spoke.

Thor: "Why do you want to hear something as pointless as a children's story? I don't believe it will be of any help getting information no?"

Nick Fury sighed and spoke.

Nick Fury: "Just continue."

Thor shrugged his shoulder before replying.

Thor: "Very well then. As I was saying, it was said that bad children would be kidnapped by the Demon King to become his servants for eternity living within the confines of his castle never to be seen again."

Nick Fury hummed before speaking.

Nick Fury: "Does this story have any actual backings behind it?"

Thor shook his head and replied.

Thor: "Ney. It was all just a fake story our mother invented mostly to keep Loki in line."

Nick Fury: "Is there any other stories about this Demon? Possibly some legends about him that exists on Asgard?"

Thor semmed to be rembering something before his eyes brightened and he nodded his head and replied.

Thor: "Indeed there was actually! In Asgards Library, there is an entire row filled with legends and some other miscellaneous information about this Demon King Of Tyranny. Many of our scholars have studied it deeply especially about the prophecy that foretold his inevitable return."

Nick Fury: "Ah yes, there's also this whole prophecy thing. What's it all about?"

Thor Looked confused as he asked Nick Fury a question, his tone full of doubt.

Thor: "Nick Fury, don't tell me you've never found the prophecy? Back on Asgard, all throughout the 9 realms that I've been to, they all have the same prophecy ingrained onto them."

Nick Fury: "So you're saying that this prophecy is something that exists... Everywhere."

Everyone became confused when Fury's tone became one of disbelief rather than confusion or suspicion.

Nick Fury quickly removed the video and in its place were a bunch of images with the same message written on them in various locations across the globe. And some seem to even stem from other planets. Seeing everyone's attention on the pictures, Nick Fury coughed and spoke up.

Nick Fury: "What I'm sharing with you now is a government secret that we've prevented from leaking. Although a government secret, it wasn't exactly that high up in our classifications so I'm allowed to share this with you all. However, know that this must never be shared with anyone outside. Understood?"

Saying these words, he looked specifically at Tony making him roll his eyes and nodding his head.

Nick Furry: "Everyone, I present to you file number #33: the suspicious prophecy"
