Disclaimer: I do not own Daredevil, Arrow or anything else you may recognize

Thank you to everyone who has favorited, followed or reviewed this fic so far.

I'm pretty sure you all have heard by now, Arrow is ending with Season 8. Now I know it's quality was fluctuating but the show still was an important part of my life and it will hold a special place in my heart. I'm going to miss it.

Of course I will miss Seasons 1, 2 and 5 the most because they were my favorites.

And I'm not gonna lie, this year is gonna be pretty depressing as we're losing some of our heroes (or might lose them)- Steve Rogers, Tony Stark, Phil Coulson and Oliver Queen.

Chaos Sorcerer: Thank you for the review. Yeah, Superman played by Tom Welling. Though this is not any particular version of the character. Yeah, Thor is a match for him in my opinion. You might want to read the answers of a certain Isaac Heredia on Quora about this matter. You'll love those. As for the suit, it's one in the concept art by Josh Nizzi. I'll see about Wade and the unforgettable legend. I haven't really thought about Gotham much to be honest. Yeah, the LOTR style banter is always fun. Enjoy the chapter.

Chapter 10- Avengers vs. Chitauri

Two more Leviathans slowly came out of the portal along with more Chitauri on transports.

"Guys." Natasha said, attracting their attention.

"Call it, Captain." Tony said.

"Yeah." Oliver said, "We trust you to lead us."

"So what's the order, Captain?" Matt asked.

"Alright, listen up." Steve started commanding everyone, "Until we can close that portal up there, we're gonna use containment."

Turning to the two master archers, he said, "Queen, Barton, I want you both on that roof, eyes on everything. Call out patterns and strays."

Turning to the Kryptonian and billionaire, he said, "Stark, Superman, you both got the perimeter. Anything gets more than three blocks out, you turn it back or your turn it to ash."

"Wanna give me a lift?" Clint asked.

"Right." Tony said as he grabbed him, "Better clench up, Legolas."

He then flew up with him.

"I won't mind one either." Oliver said.

"Come on, Robin Hood." Superman said as he grabbed Oliver and flew up with him.

"Spider-Man." Steve called out as the young scientist turned to him, "Swing around, help Superman and Stark as best as you can."

"Aye aye, Captain." Peter said with a salute as he swung away.

"Thor." Steve said to the Prince of Asgasrd, "You've gotta try and bottleneck that portal, slow them down. You've got the lightning, light the bastards up."

Thor twirled Mjolnir and flew up.

"The two of you and me we stay here on the ground, keep the fighting here." He said to Matt and Natasha who nodded.

"And Hulk." The indestructible green monster turned to the Captain. Steve raised a finger.

"Smash!"

Hulk grinned and leapt into the air onto a building, smashing the Chitauri hanging on it. Grabbing it, he leapt onto the opposite building, smashing another one and throwing them both down before grabbing a third one and leaping again.

He threw that one into another building and it crashed through several floors while Hulk leapt into the air and smashed a flying Chitauri transport.

Thor flew up and stood on the top of the Chrysler Building. Raising Mjolnir skywards, he summoned a powerful lightning bolt.

The lightning was conducted through the entire building, increasing Thor's power. He directed his hammer at the portal and with a mighty roar, discharged multiple lightning bolts.

The bolts instantly destroyed multiple Chitauri vehicles that were coming through along with two giant Leviathans.

Fury was watching everything via monitors on the Helicarrier.

"Sir."

Fury looked up to see Hill.

"The council is on." She said and Fury solemnly nodded.

"Stark, you have a lot of strays sniffing your tail." Clint said as he fired at some Chitauri transports.

"I guess you want me to fire at them all." Oliver said dryly as he fired around.

"No. I don't." Clint said simply.

"Just trying to keep them off the streets." Tony said as he flew around, the Chitauri following.

"But they can't bank worth a damn." Clint said as he fired at a Chitauri transport and destroyed it without even looking at it, "Find a tight corner."

"Show off." Oliver commented and Clint chuckled.

"I will roger that." Tony said as he flew past the two archers. Clint fired a thermal tipped arrow on one transport, melting the metal as the Chitauri was down. Oliver got another one with his arrow.

Tony flew through a tunnel, leading the Chitauri on a goose chase. That moment, Superman flew up behind them at full speed and using heat vision, destroyed two of them before ramming into a third one. Iron Man turned around and fired his missile, getting two more.

"Oh, boy." He said as the two flew out, "Nice call, what else do you got?"

"Well, Thor's taking out the squadron on 6." Clint informed him.

"And he didn't invite me." Tony muttered.

"I'm going." Superman said before flying off.

Two Chitauri arrived behind Stark when they were pulled away by Spider-Man and thrown down while he continued swinging.

"Your friendly neighborhood Spider-Man on the job."

One Leviathan moved towards a building when suddenly Hulk leapt at it from inside and grabbing it by the lower jaw, pulled it away, though its side still destroyed some windows.

Another Leviathan moved towards another building when Superman lifted it up from below and flying upwards, threw it off before punching it hard, sending it flying into space.

Matt swept a Chitauri's feet from under it before flip kicking it out and in a rotatory motion, kicked another Chitauri away before firing a projectile at another one, knocking it out. Rotating his club, he turned around and smacked another Chitauri hard, knocking it out.

Natasha was pinned to a car by a Chitauri but she hit it on the side of the neck with a knife, destroying it. Taking its staff, she fired at another one, sending it flying off.

She sensed movement behind her but turning around, saw it was Steve.

After some panting, she said, "Captain, none of this is gonna mean a damn thing if we don't close that portal."

"Our biggest guns couldn't touch it." Steve pointed out.

"Well, maybe it's not about guns." Natasha said.

As they looked up, Steve said, "You wanna get up there, you're gonna need a ride."

"I have a ride." Natasha said as she threw away the staff and looked at Steve, "I could use a boost though."

"You sure about this?" Steve asked.

"Yeah, it's gonna be fun." She said.

"Be careful." Matt said to her.

"I will." Natasha said before she ran and leapt on a car and then on Steve's shield who pushed her up to a transport which she hung on to.

She threw off the one on the back and stabbed the other one, trying to control it, "Turn, turn. Left."

As other transports fired at her, Iron Man flew past them, firing his repulsors at some transports. He then flew down where Steve slammed a Chitauri to the ground while Matt flip kicked another one away. Tony fired a repulsor at Steve's shield and it deflected off, killing more Chitauri.

Tony then flew up a building and destroyed more of them with his repulsors while Clint shot down a Chitauri who was trying to climb that building. Oliver turned around and smacked a Chitauri who was trying to sneak up on them out.

Clint and Oliver then fired on two separate Chitauris, toppling their transports while Peter flew past, kicking a Chitauri off its transport, making it go haywire and crash land on a Leviathan where Hulk roared and threw a Chitauri away before smashing more of them. Thor landed and with Mjolnir, sent two of them flying off while Superman got one of them with heat vision before head-butting another away.

Hulk ripped out a piece of the Leviathan and embedded it into its back. Thor charged Mjolnir and hit the piece hard, killing the Leviathan which crashed into an empty building. The three then stood there, side to side.

Suddenly, Hulk sucker punched Thor sending him flying into Superman and they both crashed to a side while Hulk gave a sniff of satisfaction.

"Director Fury, the council has made a decision." A Councilwoman told Fury on the video chat.

"I recognize the council has made a decision." Fury said, "But given that it's a stupid ass decision, I've elected to ignore it."

"Why do you think it's a stupid ass decision?" Waller asked, "Because you didn't make it?"

"I think it's better if you stay out of this." Fury warned her.

"Director, you're closer than any of our subs." Gideon Malick said, "You scramble that jet-"

"That is the island of Manhattan, Councilman." Fury said, "Until I'm certain my team can't hold it, I will not order a nuclear strike against a civilian population."

"Your team is not the only one there." Amanda revealed with a smirk, "One of my assets is there."

"What?" Fury asked in shock, "I told you to stay out of this."

"I don't take orders from you." Amanda smirked as Fury glared.

Matt was fighting some Chitauri in a building. He smacked one out and flip kicked another to a side. It tried to get up but was suddenly dragged away behind a pillar. A moment later its torso was thrown away.

Matt's jaw dropped as he realized who was here. A giant man who looked like a crocodile emerged from there and roared loudly. Killer Croc! He then rushed Matt. Matt prepared to fight but then Croc ran past him and leapt out of the building, fighting the Chitauri instead, ripping them apart.

"And now he is on our side." Matt muttered dryly.

Natasha was riding the transport when Loki fired at her from behind. Turning around, she muttered, "Oh! You!"

As she flew forwards, she called out on comms, "Hawkeye."

"Nat, what are you doing?" Clint asked.

"Need a little help." She said.

"I got him." Clint said as both flew in front of him. He fired at Loki but he caught the arrow just before it reached his eye.

He looked at Clint with a smirk when suddenly, the arrow beeped and exploded, sending him crashing to the tower, destroying the "S" and "T" of the Stark Industries building.

Natasha leapt off the transport landed on the building's top.

"Well, I just got their leader." Clint smirked at Oliver.

"That still only counts as one." Oliver grumbled.

Loki got up, only for a roaring Hulk to punch him into the building, crashing him through the glass.

As Hulk rushed him, Loki got up and yelled, "ENOUGH!"

Hulk stopped as Loki continued ranting, "You are all of you beneath me! I am a God, you dull creature, and I will not be bullied by a-"

He was cut off when Hulk lifted him by the foot and started smashing him to the ground repeatedly. He stopped for a second and then smashed him again twice before throwing him down and leaving him lying on the ground.

Walking away, he managed to speak in a guttural voice, "Puny God."

Loki whimpered behind him.

As Natasha looked at the device, Selvig said, "The scepter."

She turned to see the doctor on the edge of the building, now back to his senses, "Doctor."

"Loki's scepter, the energy...the Tesseract can't fight." He muttered incoherently, "You can't protect against yourself."

"It's not your fault." Natasha assured him, "You didn't know what you were doing."

"Well, actually I think I did." Selvig said as his eyes widened in realization, "I built in a safety to cut the power source."

"Loki's scepter." Natasha realized.

"It may be able to close the portal." Selvig said as he looked down, "And I'm looking right at it."

Stark was on the ground, weakened after having destroyed a Leviathan from the inside.

"Stark, do you hear me?" Fury said on comms, "We have a missile headed straight for the city."

"How long?" He asked as more Chitauri attacked him.

"Three minutes, at best." Fury said.

"Jarvis, put everything we got into the thrusters." Stark said

"I just did." Jarvis said as Tony started flying up.

The missile was fired at the city.

Steve smacked a Chitauri away on the ground as Thor threw another off and Matt flip kicked one out. A shot was about to hit Steve when Superman flew into the way, taking it and sending the offender flying off with a punch. Thor hit a car with Mjolnir, sending it flying into some Chitauri who were crushed.

Natasha moved the scepter to the device to close it, "I can close it! Can anybody copy? I can shut the portal down!"

"Do it!" Steve said.

"No, wait!" Stark said.

"Stark, these things are still coming!" Steve pointed out.

"I got a nuke coming in, it's gonna blow in less than a minute." Stark said as he flew after said nuke, "And I know just where to put it."

Stark grabbed the nuke and putting all power into all the thrusters, Stark flew up into the portal as the others watched.

Jarvis tried to call Miss Potts on the way but it failed as Tony flew into the portal towards the Chitauri base.

He let the nuke go as his suit's power wore off due to him being in space. As he started falling down, the nuke flew up to the base and exploded, destroying the base utterly as Stark fell through the portal right before Natasha closed it. The other Chitauri died when cut off from their power source.

"Son of a gun." Steve muttered.

"He's not slowing down." Thor said as him and Superman prepared to catch him. But Hulk leapt into th air and caught him, sliding down via a building.

He put Iron Man down as Thor ripped off his visor.

"He is alive." Matt said.

"Yes, he is." Superman confirmed.

"Then why isn't he-"

Hulk roared loudly, startling them all as Stark's eyes snapped open.

"What the hell?" He said frantically, "What just happened? Please tell me nobody kissed me?"

"We won." Steve simply said.

"Alright. Hey. Alright. Good job guys." Stark said cheerfully, "Let's just not come in tomorrow. Let's just take a day. Have you ever tried shawarma? There's a shawarma joint about two blocks from here. I don't know what it is, but I wanna try it."

"We're not finished yet." Thor pointed out.

"And then shawarma after."

Croc stood in a corner of the city as Amanda said, "Get to the extraction point."

"Croc doesn't want to." He grumbled.

"You know what's in your head?" She threatened and he roared angrily before leaping off to the extraction point.

Oliver walked up to where Clint was sitting next to a dead Chitauri, his arrow embedded in the creature's head.

"Final count." Oliver said with a smirk, "42."

"42." Clint said with a mocking chuckle, "Not bad for a green loving, modern day Robin Hood. I'm myself sitting pretty on 43."

Suddenly, Oliver notched an arrow and fired it on the Chitauri next to Clint, "43."

"It was already dead." Clint said.

"It was twitching." Oliver countered.

"It was twitching because it's got my arrow embedded into its nervous system." Clint grumbled as he moved the arrow in the alien's head, causing it to actually twitch.

"Uhhh, archers." Peter said as he walked up to them, "Come on."

Loki woke up, groaning as he was still feeling the pain from Hulk's beating. Turning around, his eyes widened as he saw Matt, Natasha, Peter, Thor, Superman, Oliver, Clint, Steve, Hulk and Tony in front of him. The archers had arrows pointed at him.

"If it's all the same to you." He groaned with a smirk as he tried to get up, "I'll have that drink now."

A snarl from Hulk told him that wasn't going to happen.

Finally! Arc 1 is done. Hope you enjoyed. Now the unfortunate 1 week hiatus.

After that, we'll go to Starling City for a little filler before the 2nd arc which you will all enjoy.

Please review. I always appreciate your feedback.
