Earth is in chaos. More and more people finally believe that the apocalypse has arrived and this is going to be their end. The Avengers are decreasing in numbers. Spider Man is dead. Most of them are injured. Thanos, the Mad Titan, got a hold of the Mind Stone killing Vision in the process. Even with gained allies, they are losing hope. They are starting to realize they are no match for him. "He already got the Mind Stone. Why is he still here?" Banner asked them all. They are in their headquarters mending their injuries. "I think there's one person here who can answer that", Nick Fury said and they all looked to Thor who is standing by the corner. "There's another stone in this planet", he simply answered. They all looked surprised. "What?" Nat asked. "The Soul Stone and I guess we already know where it is, don't we Your Highness?" Thor answered. T'Challa went pale. "Yes, we do. It's in safe keeping", he said. Everyone protested by this revelation. "We need to make sure it is really safe otherwise, if Thanos get a hold of it, we're doomed like for real", Clint suggested and everyone agreed. "Is there anything else we need to know?" Steve asked. "There's one more stone that we know of, the Space Stone or you know it by Tesseract. It was in the vault of Asgard but due to Ragnarok it was lost", Thor answered. Doctor Strange raised his hand. "We have the Time Stone but rest assured it is safe", he said.
The ground shakes. "What was that?" Wanda asked them but none answered. Tony started playing with technology to find out what that is. Upon seeing in the monitor, the ground in Manhattan opened up as the steam underneath rises. "Does anyone know any surprises? Because I don't want to go in there where another big reveal is about to happen. Anyone?" Tony asked and none answered. The Avengers then suit up. Doctor Strange looked at them as they get ready. "Do you know why they're getting dressed?" he asked Banner. "It's their uniform like their battle uniform", he answered. Doctor Strange frowned. "Uniform? They need a uniform for battle?" he asked. Thor laughed hysterically. "For someone who was born here on Earth, you sound incredibly surprised, my friend", Thor said as he patted him on his back. "Shall we?" Steve asked and they all nodded.
They arrived in Manhattan where they can see what it becomes. It all left them speechless. "What the hell?" Banner muttered. "That's exactly what it is", Clint said. The buildings have been destroyed. Houses are burned. There are no more people on the streets. Their ship landed and they all got out. The ground is hot. "Yeah, I think we are in hell", Tony said as he looks around. Then they saw Thanos by his ship. They are busy with something that they cannot see. "I cannot read him anymore. The stone made it impossible", Wanda said as she tried to read his mind. Thanos felt their presence and he chuckled. "Look who is here! It's the Avengers", he mocked. His minions started laughing. "Are you here to stop us?" he asked them. "Damn right we are", Steve answered. It made them laugh even more. "And what makes you think you can? You have never been able to stop us before, let alone now", he said. They all got confused. "What do you mean let alone now?" Thor asked. Thanos didn't answer him. Instead, he gave him a smile. "Odinson, you may be the God of Thunder but you are never wiser unlike your brother", he said. Lightning bolts swarmed on his fists. "What have you done with Loki?" he asked angrily. "Oh, calm down, Asgardian. He is fine. He is great actually. Don't believe me? Ask him yourself", Thanos said.
He revealed Loki who was behind him. He looked at Thor and the others with the same look he has back when he tried to invade Earth. "Loki! What has he done to you?" Thor asked him. Loki smiled and then laughed. "Dear brother, always soft. That is going to be your downfall just like poor father", he answered in mockery. Thor looked at his team. "He has been influenced by the stone. My brother has changed", he said. Wanda used her power to confirm it. "No, the stone did not do it", she said. Thor looked extremely disappointed. "Why?" he asked Loki. "I trusted you. We all did", he added. Thanos watched them in amusement. "That is your mistake. You trust so easily. You love so much. You should try to learn from time to time", Loki answered coldly. Thanos went near Loki and out his arm around his shoulders. "This is a wise man. Now, why don't you show them what you can do?" Thanos said to them then to Loki. He nodded. He turned around from them to get something. "I don't have a good feeling about this", Doctor Strange said as he watched them. Loki turned back with a glowing blue cube on his hand.
Their eyes widened in shock. "It's the Tesseract", Nat muttered. Loki looked at it with such admiration. It's power is undeniably strong. "What are you doing?!" Thor exclaimed as the wind blew harder. Loki didn't answer him. He is too focused on accessing its powers. Then a light from it came out and onto the space opening some sort of a hole. "What is that?" Banner asked them. "Guys, is that what I think it is?" Tony asked. "I think it is", Clint answered. "What are you talking about?" Banner asked again. "I think it's really it", Rogers confirmed. Banner looked at them. "I am lost guys, what is it?" he asked one more time. Doctor Strange walked towards him. "That, my friend, is a portal from space", he answered him. Fear strikes Banner. He never likes portals. He knows it only means trouble. Thor stepped forward. "Loki! Think of what you're doing. You know it is not right. You can do better. You have proven it so many times. Please, Loki. Fight with us. Fight with me", Thor pleaded. There is indecision in Loki's eyes that gave Thor a bit of hope but it's gone in an instant. "I am tired of fighting with you brother. I wanted to fight for something else now", he said as he unleashed the full power of the cube. The portal grew bigger.
The heroes tried to stop it. "Can you hack it?" Steve asked Wanda. "I'll try", she answered as she opened her hands and tried to hijack the portal but she's taken aback by it and fell. T'Challa catches her. "It's too strong! I can't do it", she exclaimed. Thanos laughed. "There's nothing you can do to stop it and you know it", he said. Then, just beyond the portal, a silhouette came to light. A figure walking. Slowly, the figure became more and more recognizable. Then, it finally got out of the portal, a woman. She is wearing all black clothing. Her hair is long and dark as night. Her eyes are piercing and cold. Thor is left speechless. Loki bowed at her as well as Thanos. The Avengers were confused by her arrival. Then she muttered to Thor, "Hello brother".
