Chapter 2:

Loki's Recruits, Part 1

Now for some fourth wall destruction!

Prepare as Loki, the greatest villain of all time (non-debatable), recruits his army of famous movie characters!

Loki was walking through the warehouse, where he had Dr. Clithe, along with some random people he found wandering around the warehouse, whom he "persuaded" with his staff to serve him, work on not only repairing Dr. Clithe's machine, but also building a larger version of it, for some reason known only to Loki. The warehouse, was massive, perhaps serving to house large machinery when it was in use, but it now has holes is the roof, which had been covered with tarps, and heavy rust on all the support structures. After arriving in the real world, Loki spent the first few days familiarizing himself with the "other worlds", which consisted on Dr. Clithe's DVD collection. After watching a few of them, he came with a clear idea of whom he wanted to bring into the real world, to help him conquer this world and, subsequently, his own and many others.

To get the necessary machinery, he successfully "persuaded" some former thieves to rob banks, using his scepter to aid in the process, leaving with the money while the thieves stayed behind to take the blame. By placing the money into accounts of some of his minions, he was able to get the parts needed for Dr. Clithe's work.

Dr. Clithe had just walked up to Loki, who was sitting on a old, rusted refrigerator...

"Sir, my original device has been repaired! It just needs a few more minutes to charge."

"Excellent" said Loki who stood up, holding his staff in hand. "...And the other one?"

"It needs a few more days, but it will be complete soon...You know, without your help, my vision would have never been fully achieved. You have opened my mind to such possibilities!" said Dr. Clithe, but somewhere deep down, his true self was loathing what he was being made to do. His intentions before Loki's arrival was never to conquer worlds; he just wanted to show that he wasn't a lunatic.

"And your work will shape the foundations of this new world I plan off, Doctor. Now, shall we?" Gestured Loki as he walked back towards the work area. Clithe started barking orders for everyone to stand back as he picked up the fully charged and improved device and pointed it at a makeshift wall made of plywood, with plenty of people standing behind it.

"It's ready, sir. Who are we going to bring in first?" asked Dr. Clithe.

Loki took out a notebook he took from Dr. Clithe's former house, which he had scribbled some notes he took after "observing" the other worlds on Clithe's TV.

"Let's start with that man with the black mask I saw in the world of..." he looked at the notebook, "Star Wars..."

(The Death Star:

Darth Vader exits his shuttle as he enters the Death Star.)

The Storm Troopers stood in formation as the shuttle lands on the platform. The Commander of the new Death Star comes to greet Lord Vader. As he awaits for the shuttle ramp to descend, he can't help but feel nervous, as Lord Vader is seldom pleased. Eventually, the shuttle ramp descends and Darth Vader walks down...

"Lord Vader, this is an unexpected pleasure, we are honored by your presence" he says to Vader.

"You may dispense with the pleasantries commander, I am here to put you back on schedule" Vader replies without even glancing at him.

"I assure you Lord Vader, my men are working as fast as they can."

"Perhaps I can find new ways to motivate them."

The commander replied irritated, "I tell you, this station will be operational as planned."

"The Emperor does not share your optimistic appraisal of the situation."

"But he asks the impossible..."

Suddenly, the commander was cut off by an unexpected sight; a flash of light appeared next to them, causing some lieutenants to be flung by its force. Vader and the commander shielded there eyes from the flash with their hands. As they let there hands down, the light dimmed to reveal a circular ring of light, and a strange mist in within it.

"What is the meaning of this, Commander!?" shouts Vader.

"I assure you I have no idea Lord Vader, I'm as surprised as you are!"

Vader, weary of the circle of light, draws his light saber. He begins to approach it...

"Lord Vader, I advise against this!"

"Commander, do I sense fear in you?"

"No sir" he answers nervously, not taking his eyes of the anomaly.

Vader approached slowly, with his Light saber activated. He put it through the mist, realizing that there was a space inside it. He entered it, with the Commander taking one step forward in curiosity...

Loki and Dr. Clithe watched as the masked man, with a glowing red sword in his hand, walked through the portal into the real world.

"Loki, I present to you, Darth Vader" said Dr. Clithe.

Darth Vader glared at the two men, both of whom are wearing some sort of strange clothing.

"What is the meaning of this!?" asks Vader, "Is some sort of Rebel trick?"

Loki merely smiled. "No trick, my Lord, just a recruitment."

Suddenly, a group of people appeared from behind the portal, tackling Vader from behind. Darth Vader, sensing them, simply turned and used the force to throw them off. He turned as Loki went to jab him with the scepter and swung his light saber at it. To his surprise, the light saber could not slice the scepter. Vader continuously fought Loki, but he was equally skilled as he used his scepter to deflect Vader's blows. Using a blast of energy from his scepter, he manages to knock Vader back against the wall of the warehouse, momentarily phasing him. Then, Loki was barely able to jab the his scepter into Vader's chest. Unlike Ironman, the machinery on Vader's chest did not hinder the Tesserac energy from entering Vader's body. Vader attempted to use the force against Loki, but found himself frozen. Unseen to anyone, the former Anakin Skywalker's eyes had taken on a strange blue tint, signifying that he has fallen under Loki's control...

The Commander waited anxiously from the other side of the portal, waiting for Lord Vader's return.

"Lord Vader, is everything alright?!" he called through.

No response. Then, Vader walked through.

"Commander, order all of the storm troopers currently on this vessel, to follow me."

The commander stared, perplexed. "Lord Vader, what do you mean? What is that thing? What about the Emperor?"

"The Emperor is no longer of concern to us. What lies on this side will guarantee us complete control of the Galaxy. Now, you have your orders!"

Vader then walked through, with some of the storm troopers following through. The commander, afraid to disobey a direct order, gave the command...

"Lieutenant!" a lieutenant came forward, "Carry out his orders, bring every storm trooper here now!"

Loki watched as storm troopers poured through the portal, all under Darth Vader's command.

"So, now that we have our army, what is our plan now?"

"Our army?" asked Loki rhetorically. "Oh no, we're not done with phase one, my dear doctor." He stood up, and walked over to Vader.

"Darth Vader, may I call you that?"

"Anything you wish, my master" he replied before breathing with his loud, mechanical breath.

"Right, I will require your larger, uh, larger machinery?"

"Yes, the tie fighters and the walkers can be brought to the hangar and through the portal. Soon, my master, we will rule this and every galax..."

"Yes, yes, "every galaxy" we get it. Now, lets see what we can do about that...then we will bring in the others..."

"The others, master?"

Loki turned to Vader, "Yes, I don't just want to conquer the world, I want to conquer, everywhere! So, logically, I will need an army so diverse, so unstoppable, no one, no hero, from any world, can overcome it!"

Vader looked at Loki, than answered, "And then, the galax..."

"Yes! we know, you like to conquer galaxies, we get it!"

"If only my son where here, then we would..."

"Stop! Just stop! Stop talking!"

Vader stood in silence, then he turned to the portal to ensure that his master's forces got through. Loki walked away to see Dr. Clithe, who was by the device.

"How are we doing, doctor?' asked Loki.

"So far, so good."

"Excellent, the rest of the troops will be in soon, and then we can go on with the next world."

"Alright, sir. If I may ask, which world is it?"

Loki looked down at his notebook. "It is... creatures called, Uri-Kai, from..."Lord of the Rings."

(Middle Earth: Rohan

Uri-kai are traveling across the plains of Rohan towards Helm's deep.)

The Uri-kai, on route to Helm's Deep, travel across the plains. Suddenly, a portal appears in front of them, and Loki steps through, prepared to bring new troops to his army...

"I wasn't able to get all ten thousand as I wanted, but I was able to get about a thousand, which was disappointing, nontheless" said Loki as he watched the Uri-kai he could control walk through the portal.

The last of the Uri-kai he was able to get through the portal as Dr. Clithe closed the portal. Loki was able to get many Uri-kai under his control, but many ran away, sensing that Loki was not with Sauromon as he claimed. Not having the means of flight, and Uri-kai far to dispersed to warrant tracking them down by other means, Loki decided to abandon his pursuit.

Dr. Clithe observed as Uri-kai passed by storm troopers, trying to get in the odd sight.

"Alright Doctor, are we ready for the next trip?"

"Just a second..." he said, waiting for the red light, "...now. Where to next?"

(Real World: on a road approaching the border of the Everglades)

Agent Ryder and Mr. Spoke, who had agreed to accompany Ryder on his examination of Dr. Clithe's warehouse, rode in Ryder's Ford Fusion.

"How's the mileage on this thing?" asked Spoke.

Ryder was clearly annoyed by the inquisitive analyst. "About 27 mpg."

"Ah, nice. I think I might get one of these."

Ryder just kept his eyes on the road, wanting to get this done and over with so he can get back to more interesting missions.

"What do you thin..." Spoke began to ask before the radio turned on and off by itself, and the car's transmission made odd noises.

"Ah, great! what's going on?" asked Ryder as he felt the engine act up. Spoke looked at the GPS, which began flickering on and off. Amiss the flickering, he was able to make out that they were three miles from there location.

"That's not good" he said, noticing that the radio continued to act up.

"What do you mean 'not good'?" asked Ryder.

"I think we're getting EMP bursts."

"EMP?" asked Ryder. "You don't think this Clithe guy made some EMP weapon, do you?!"

Spoke nodded his head, "No, a weapon would have fried the electronics by now, this is too weak. This is most likely the by product of something else."

"Like...?"

"I can think of many things, none of them good. We better hurry, before the spark plugs go!"

"Alright, hang on Mr. Spoke!" said Ryder as he slammed his foot on the gas pedal.

(Somewhere on an island north of Berk)

"Oh what, you want an apology?" asked Hiccup as Toothless turned his head away in irritance.

"Is that why your pouting big baby boob?" Toothless gave a grunt in response.

"Well try this on!" yelled Hiccup as he tried to tackle his dragon, who showed little response to being tackled.

"Ah! You feeling it yet? picking up on all my heart felt remorse?" he said as he tried to wrestle Toothless, to no avail. In annoyance, Toothless stood up and moved towards the edge of the cliff, while Hiccup held on.

"Alright, come on come on, you, you wouldn't hurt a one legged, AH!" he yelled, realizing Toothless was holding him at the edge of a cliff.

"Alright, alright, you win! you win!" he said as Toothless rolled over and pinned him to the ground playfully.

"Ha, ha! he's down, and its ugly!" said Hiccup as Toothless pretended to attack him. "...And it's ugly, dragon and Viking, enemies again! locked in combat, to the bitter... AWW!" he groaned as Toothless plopped his giant head on Hiccup's body. He then proceeded to lick him.

"Argh!" exclaimed Hiccup as he got up, being covered in slobber. "You know that doesn't wash out!"

Before Toothless could respond, however, a bright light flashed next to him. Toothless instinctively stood between Hiccup and the light to protect him. As the light faded into a portal, Hiccup walked from behind Toothless to get a better look. Then, Loki appeared, with his head piece and all. He was caught off by the strange, animated atmosphere. The boy and the dragon before him were just as animated as the landscape.

"Greetings, young Viking."

Hiccup cautiously asked, grabbing his makeshift flame thrower, while Toothless growled. "Who are you?" he asked.

"Why, I am Loki, the god of mischief, and I have an important mission for you, Hiccup of Berk."

Hiccup stood motionless, unsure of how to greet a Norse god. Toothless glared warily at Loki.

"Loki, it is an honor to serve Asgard!" said an obviously dumfounded Hiccup as Loki approached.

"Yes, everyone just loves Asgard, don't they? Well, before I accept your services, I need to ensure your loyalty..." he said as he pointed his sceptor at Hiccup...

"What are you..." started Hiccup before being touched by the spear in the chest. Toothless growled, unsure if this is a good thing or a bad thing. Lokie then turned to Toothless, who backed away and growled louder. Then, Huccup, now with an odd blue hue in his eyes, stepped in...

"It's Ok, Toothless, he just want to show you something..." he said, calming Toothless as Loki touched him with the scepter...

So, Just to Recap, Loki now has Darth Vader and his storm troopers (along with tie fighters and AT-ST walker), some Uri-Kai, and Hiccup and Toothless (who retain there animated qualities in the real world) on his side.

Some might be wondering if Darth Vader would have been so easily defeated by Loki, and quite frankly, I'm not to sure myself, but I'm going on the logic that Loki had the element of surprise and Vader was out of his element.

Anyway, don't forget to leave a review, and let me know what you think!
