CH. 2 The new threat
"What was that?" asked Steve as he and the others made their way to the lab.
"I believe it came from Doctor Banner's lab, sir," answered a British accent A.I. named J.A.R.V.I.S.
"Pleas don't tell me he turned green," Stark hoped when they arrived at the lab.
The door was locked but smoke was coming through the cracks. Just when Thor was about to knock the door down, it opened to reveal the gamma genius.
He had dark circles under his eyes, showing that he hadn't slept in a few days.
"Oh hey guys. Did I wake you?" he said casually.
"No but what happened?" Romanoff said.
"Well I was kind of working on a way to detect *cough* brainwaves. You know, if anyone *cough* got brainwashed again. But it didn't work out so well *cough* and it blew up," he explained and coughed 'cause of the smoke.
There was a long silence, but was broken when an alarm beeped.
"What is it now?" Barton asked no one.
"J.A.R.V.I.S. report? What happened?" Tony called.
"There seems to be someone down town with the same magical signature as Thor and Loki. He also has snakes with him that are destroying the city," the A.I. answered.
"Okay then. Avengers assemble!" Rogers said as the heroes went to change and get their weapons.
When everyone was good and ready, they meet on the roof. There was a quijet waiting for the non-fliers. Hawkeye, Black Widow, Loki, Bruce and Capitan America all board the jet, while Thor and Iron-man flew ahead of them.
"So do you two know anything about this?" Steve asked the Asgardiens.
"I have my suspicions whom it might be," Loki answered.
"And who is that?" Thor asked his brother.
"I think it might be Nyoka," he said and closed his eyes.
"N-Nyoka? It can't be him, can it?" the older Asgardien said in disbelieve.
"E… Do you two intend to share with the rest of the class?" Tony asked.
"Nyoka is, was, an Asgardien, but was banished. No one has heard about him in centuries," the lord of thunder explained.
"Why was he banished?" Clint asked.
"He was a wizard and… well experimented on other. After every battle, he took at least two corps. But when Asgard went into peace, he started kidnapping his own kind. When Odin found out he was sentenced to trail."
"When the All-father asked why he did this, Nyoka just started laughing. He then shouted that he was creating the ultimate army, never questioning orders. They would also never need rest, sleep, food or water. They would be perfect."
Everyone was silent after what the Trickster told them. The silence lasted until the billionaire saw a man standing on a red and green snake laughing.
"Guys, I think I found our guy."
"Aye that is Nyoka. And his serpents of the elements," Thor seconded.
"Serpents of the elements? What are those?" Widow asked as Hawk landed the jet on the ground.
"The serpents have the powers of two natural elements combined. See the red snake. It has the power of Fire, its name is Flo. There are three more. Nana, the snake of Water. Jinn-Wind. And Dona- Earth," Thor explained and looked at the one snake.
"So if there are four of them, where are the others?" asked Bruce, but soon regretted it.
As soon as he asked, the ground started shaking and a crake was created beneath their feet. From under them rose a green snake. The Avengers jumped out of the way, before the amphibian's tail hit them. But Banner didn't make. Instead the tail hit a giant raging green Avenger. The Hulk threw the tail off and send the snake away as well. He then joined the others behind a nearby shop.
"That was Jinn. Be alert, for it can move through air," warned the newest Avenger.
"So what're its weak points?" asked Cap.
"Only the opposite element, which is Fire. Each snake has its enemy. For Fire it's Water, for Water it's Earth, for Earth-Wind and Wind-Fire. So right now, we have before us two opposite elemental snakes. But to get rid of them, they must attack each other. And we'll need someone to take care of Nyoka."
After the explanation they got from Loki, Iron man came up with a plan.
"Okay guys, grope up and listen," said the bilinear.
As Stark was telling his team the plan, Nyoka was having fun. Because of the chaos, his figure wasn't visible to well. All the Avengers were able to see was a figure in a black cloak. He had an amused smirk on his face and laughed.
"So this is what you are now? Avengers? You truly have fallen. But fear not," and as he said that two more serpents arrived. One was brown and the other blue.
"I shall free you from this shame. You and your friends' will all die!" he laughed and the four snakes went on another rampage. Luckily for the heroes, the amphibians went past them.
"You got the plan?" asked Rogers and stood up.
"Aye Capita," smiled the Thunderer.
"Better that nothing," agreed Stark.
Barton and Romanoff gave a nod and the Hulk grinned.
"Are you sure this is going to work?" asked an unsure Loki.
"Doing the impossible is part of the job," assured Hawk.
The trickster took a deep breath and started chanting. After a few seconds a green for surrounded them and they vanished.
