"Holy guacamole!" Tony exclaimed, flying around the corner of some buildings and making a group of Chitauri flyers and vulture droids crash into a few buildings. He looked down at the crowd of white soldiers that looked a bit like what Rex wore when they first met him.
There were also several more lightsaber lights down there, mostly green or blue. Except one. A purple one. The one with the purple lightsaber seemed to be moving really fast and aggressively, chopping up droids and Chitauri with ease.
Diving down, Iron Man noticed he had some more Chitauri following him. Still travelling downwards, Tony sped up and dodged their attacks. It wasn't until he was just about to hit the ground did he pull up and the Chitauri crashed into the ground. He landed on the ground, next to the man with the purple lightsaber – who aimed it at him – and Tony laughed, his face mask retracting to show his face.
"Oh man –" Tony started, and then shook his head to try and stop his laughing, "You're Windu, aren't you?"
The man narrowed his eyes suspiciously at Tony and then nodded his head, "Yes." He said, and Tony grinned at how much his voice sounded like Fury's, "Who are you?"
"Tony Stark, genius billionaire creator of the Iron Man suits." He replied, and then laughed again, "Oh man, Fury needs to get down here! Jarv, call the Pirate and tell him we request his assistance or something."
"Might I suggest sir, you not get distracted at the moment? You are about to be shot in the back."
Tony swirled around and raised his palm up, but a green lightsaber deflected the shot before it could hit him. Ahsoka twirled around and cut the droid's weapon in half before chopping it to bits.
"Tony, if you want to have a chat in the middle of battle, normally you take cover." The Togruta stated looking at him with an amused expression.
She then looked at the dark skinned master, "Hello Master Windu. Nice seeing you." Ahsoka said, her voice going from teasing Tony, to respectful Padawan.
Windu looked at Ahsoka closely but then nodded his head, "Greetings, Padawan Tano."
Ahsoka glanced at Tony, "Can you give me a lift to one of the Chitauri speeders? I have an idea."
Tony's face mask went back down, and took a hold of Ahsoka's shoulder, "Hold on, Stripy." He said and then shot off into the sky.
There seemed to be no more droids on STAPS, which was probably why Ahsoka needed Tony to give her a lift. Chitauri flyers came to them, so Ahsoka let go of Tony and pushed off of him and landed on the back of one.
She gave Tony a salute and then cut the two Chitauri in half and pushed their remains off. The speeder started to fall, so she grabbed onto the steering device and turned it to her left.
Her keen blue eyes locked onto her target. A Separatist ship that was supplying some of the droids. It even had it's bay door open. He reached up with one hand and pressed the com unit that was on her shoulder that was given to her by Tony that connected her to the human's (and Asgardian) ear pieces, "Hey Thor – I'm going to need a quick getaway. Can you help?" he spoke, eying the price not that far away from her, bashing droids and Chitauri with his hammer and his friends near her.
The blond looked up and saw Ahsoka and started swinging his hammer and took off into the sky. Pleased that she had her getaway plan, she pushed the speeder faster and aimed it to the open hatch of the droid ship.
"Snips! What are you doing?"
Ahsoka paused, hearing Anakin's voice on her com unit, "Don't worry Master. Thor's helping me." She quickly replied and then she started getting shot at by the droids guarding the ship.
She activated one lightsaber and then let go of the controls, the speeder still aimed at the inside of the ship. She flipped down under the speeder and used her lightsaber to slash the underneath of it.
And then she let go, just as it entered the ship. She started to fall, but then Thor caught her and flew off, as the speeder hit the wall inside the droid ship and blew up taking a large portion of the droid ship and droids with it.
Ahsoka grinned up at Thor, once he put her down, "Thanks!" she chirped at him, and she turned to look at the smouldering end of the ship.
"Snips?"
"I'm fine Skyguy. Told ya I would be." Ahsoka spoke into her wrist com.
Ahsoka turned to Thor to say something to him but he was staring off into the distance. When Ahsoka followed his gaze, she saw a boy with black hair that she hadn't seem before. He didn't come with Master Windu (which she had yet to ask how he got here) and the Clones and he wasn't an Avenger.
He actually looked a bit Asgardian.
"You know him?" Ahsoka asked Thor.
"Jormungandr Lokison." Thor replied, his features frowning slightly, "What is he doing here?"
A large dog tore at some droids nearby Jormungandr and Thor's frown deepened slightly. Before Ahsoka could ask, Thor told her anyway, "Fenrir. Jormungandr's brother. They are shape-shifters."
"They're Hela's brothers." Ahsoka noted, and Thor needlessly nodded his head.
"What're they doing here?" Ahsoka asked, and Thor looked at her, "One way to find out." He declared and then started walking over to them, and Ahsoka quickly following.
The one that looked human at the moment, saw Thor coming. He pulled a dagger out of the Chitauri he just killed, "Uncle." He greeted, and Ahsoka noticed that Thor relaxed slightly at that name.
"Jormungandr. Why are you and your brother on Midgard?" Thor asked.
Jormungandr looked around, noticing the bad guys thinning out, so he lowered his hands, "Father wanted us here." He answered, and then the boy tensed up, "I suppose you have heard about Hela?"
Thor shut his eyes for a second in grief before opening them again and nodding his head.
"Then let us take as many of these Chitauri scum out, in vengeance for her and if I get my fangs on the Mad Titan – he will wish he had never come near my family." Jormungandr said, baring his teeth in pure anger.

"You were dead." Healer Aeshi said, and Hela nodded her head.
"Yes. I was." A pause, "I still am."
Aeshi shook her head, "If you were dead, you wouldn't be standing there." She said, looking at the dark haired woman with uncertainty.
Hela sighed, "You are Jedi, yes? Then you can sense life – what does your senses tell you?"
Aeshi was silent. Hela was right – she couldn't sense her life. Just death.
"There is no death – there is the force." Aeshi murmured quietly to her self.
Hela laughed, "Oh Norns – that is from your code, yes? Skywalker told me about it and asked how does that apply with me and my realm. I told him that there is always death. But that is beside the point – do you know where my Father is? He should know that I am – hmmm, I suppose awake will be a fine word."
Aeshi's mouth was open, and then she shut it. She then opened it again to speak, "You talked to Anakin?"
Hela nodded her head, "Oh yes. Him and his friends were staying in my realm for a few weeks. Care to answer my question?"
"Oh – uh – Loki was meeting with the council. He was supposed to take them to a place called Midgard."
"How many?"
"A few Masters and some clone squads."
Hela's eyes widened, "The fool. He cannot transport that many without draining himself!" she hissed and then stormed past the still confused healer out into the temple. After a moment, she disappeared into purple wisps.
She reappeared in the middle of the council room, and there was only one occupant. The small green creature her father had called Yoda. Hela looked down and him, and he looked up at her.
"Hmm… Dead, you are." He stated, and Hela smiled.
"Yes. Has my father gone yet?" she asked, and Yoda nodded his head.
"Left, they did. Not long ago, it was." Yoda paused, "Awake, how are you?"
Hela gave a soft smile, "It's a long story."
"Time, I have."
"But alas, I do not." Hela paused, seeing the curious eyes on the old creature, "I am Lady Death. Before I died, I was not. The former Lady Death was tired of doing what she was so she passed her powers to me, which was the only way for me to come to the realm of living. Those killed in Helheim stay dead, but there is nothing to be said about their state of death." Hela explained, and Yoda nodded his head, "Which reminds me – I must awaken Leah when I go back to my realm."
Hela gave a farewell nod to Yoda, and then she shut her eyes and lifted her head up, seeking out the fastest rout to Helheim, and then disappearing in front of Yoda's eyes.

Obi-Wan was just about to turn and leave, when Loki suddenly clamped his hands over his ears and eyes widen a fraction. His eyes flashed blue and then he shook his head, muttering 'no' over and over again.
"Loki?" Obi-Wan asked, moving closer to the Asgardian, "What is the matter?"
Loki's eyes had a tint of blue in them just as he shut them, "Loki." He murmured, "I am Loki. I am not Asgardian nor son of Jotunheim." His voice was quiet, "I am Loki only and I am alone."
"You are not alone Loki." Obi-Wan stated firmly, "You have your friends, you can fight the control he has on you."
Loki opened his eyes again, and they were still a mix of both colours. He opened his mouth, and then winced. "Hit me." He requested, his voice sounded pained.
"Why?"
"Is this really the time to question?" at Obi-Wan's look, Loki explained in an annoyed and slightly pained voice, "Pain fights the control – to completely get rid of it you render the other person unconscious – but that will not do now. Pain fights."
"Now hit me – hard!" he commanded.
But Obi-Wan didn't have a chance too as someone else did, from behind. Loki stumbled forwards, and placed a hand on the back of his head where whatever it was hit him.
"I thought you'd never ask!" the dry voice of Nick Fury said, holding a now broken stick of some sorts in his hand.
Loki grinned, his eyes green now and turned around to face Fury, "Director Fury! How nice of you to join us. Your double is out there fighting your battle… I think I speak for everyone when I say we wish for you to meet?"
"I am so confused." Came the quiet voice of Barriss Offee.
