(Jean's P.O.V.)
5 days have passed, and I was at the Avengers Tower. I was reading a book when we heard a alarm, and we all ran to the lab. "What's going on?", Bruce asked quickly.
"Something is attacking Downtown New York.", Jarvis said concernedly. We then saw on the screen, some sort of creature throwing cars and stuff, and I saw Elisa with her partner, Matt.
"Let's go!", Steve called out as we all suited up, and we went inside the quintjet, and took off while Tony flew beside us. We then landed in a grass field, and we all got out. We ran to where the supposed creature was attacking, and I saw Goliath nearby.
To my horror, I saw a bus heading towards Goliath! Quickly, I used my telekinesis to stop the bus, and then I disintegrated it as it was in very bad shape.
"The Avengers!", Matt shouted in relief. "Thank you, Jean.", Goliath said to me with a grateful smile. "Goliath, what the hell is that?", Natasha asked quickly with confusion.
We then saw the creature come out into the light, and we saw it was a Gargoyle! But for some reason, he had cybernetics. "It's a Gargoyle, but with cybernetics.", Steve said with a gasp and wide eyes.
"Is he some kind of cyborg?", Tony asked in awe yet shock. "Whatever he is, we have to stop him.", Clint said with frantic gestures as he rigged up a arrow.
"Rookery brother? You betrayed us!", The cyborg Gargoyle said as he fired at us, but Goliath picked me up and got me out of the way in time while the others dodged.
"What sorcery is this?", I heard the cyborg ask in confusion and fear. "Where did he come from?", Natasha asked in confusion. Then I heard a roar, and I saw that Bruce had turned into the Hulk, and he was now fighting the cyborg Gargoyle.
The Cyborg Gargoyle kept firing at him and at us, and then he threw another bus at Hulk, and it made the Hulk fall down to the ground. "Bruce!", Natasha shouted in horror and worry.
Goliath and I were about to run over to them when the Cyborg shoved me to the side, and he grabbed Goliath before firing at a wall above me. I gasped in fear as I saw the rocks falling, but then I felt someone grab me, and carry me to safety.
I saw that it was Light, and she then placed me down on the ground. "Are you okay, Jean?", Light asked in concern. "I'm ok, thanks to you.", I said with a smile and a grateful nod.
Then Tony blasted the cyborg and let Goliath down, and I ran over to him. "Goliath, are you okay?", I asked in concern. "I'm fine, thanks to Tony.", Goliath said with a grin at Tony.
"No problem, man.", Tony said with a quick salute. "Goliath, what is that thing?", Brooklyn asked in curiosity.
"It is one of us, or he used to be.", Goliath said with a deep sigh. "Wait, he was part of your clan?", Clint asked with shocked and wide eyes.
"Yes.", Light said with a sad look. "But he was smashed to pieces during the attack.", Lexington said with a shake of his head in disbelief.
"But how is it he is alive?", Steve asked in amazement and confusion. "And most importantly, who turned him into this cyborg?", Tony asked as he landed, his face-plate lifting with a curious nod.
"More Traitors! You will all pay!", The cyborg gargoyle snarled. "Why are you attacking us?", Goliath asked in fear and confusion.
"You betrayed the clan. Destroyed it.", the cyborg Gargoyle said with a growl. "We were all betrayed.", Goliath said with a low snarl.
"Too true.", We then heard a voice say, and we saw that it was Demona. "Demona.", I and Light said with a joined growl. Then some robot Gargoyles who look like Goliath landed besides Demona, and one of them was red.
"Xanatos.", Elisa said with a sneer. "Wait, the red robot Gargoyle is Xanatos?", Tony asked in surprise as he blinked, looking up at Xanatos.
"This suit is far better than yours, Stark!", Xanatos called out as he saw Tony. "Ha, yours is uglier, Xanatos!", Tony yelled back with a sneering laugh.
"Enough.", Steve said as he poked Tony, and Tony muttered under his breath with a nod. "You told him these lies. I lived for my clan!", Goliath shouted with a snarl.
"And they died for you, smashed to dust by the humans you trusted.", Demona said with a low growl. "No, it was your fault, Demona! You betrayed us!", Light shouted with a angry growl.
"Twilight is right! If you hadn't allied yourself with the captain to let the vikings attack, then the clan would still be alive!" Brooklyn shouted with a pissed off look.
"The humans hated us, and they called us monsters! Monsters!", Demona growled furiously. "No, you just can't accept that it was your fault, and you are blaming the humans for what you did!", I shouted angrily.
"You led Gargoyles to their death!", Tony shouted out with a stern glare. "And you lived with all that guilt all those years, and you didn't do anything about it!", Natasha pointed ambitiously.
"Yeah! You hurt this clan, and if you hurt them, you hurt us!", Clint growled lightly. "Goliath and his clan are family to us, and that won't change ever!", Steve nodded with a firm snort. Hulk let out a roar in agreement.
"We have each created our own clans now, Goliath. You have yours. And I have mine.", Demona said with a sneer. "You have no clan. You don't know the meaning of the word.", Goliath said with a growl.
"Destroy them, Coldstone!", Demona said to the cyborg, who is called Coldstone. "Let's not be hasty. I want them alive.", Xanatos said with a chuckle.
"Why would Xanatos want them alive?", Tony asked quietly in confusion before he noticed the people in the distance. "I hate to rush this, everyone, but I say we take this fight somewhere else. We don't want the news reporters to see you!", Tony said with a nervous and hasty expression.
"Let's take this fight somewhere else.", Xanatos said, agreement in his voice as he and Demona along with Coldstone flew off. Goliath and his clan along with Light flew after them, and we all ran back to the Quinjet. Natasha and Steve were driving, and we followed Goliath and his clan.
We then saw them fight on a bridge, and the quintjet then landed, and we all got out to help them. I saw Brooklyn fighting Demona, and I saw Lexington being fired at by Xanatos.
"I'll handle Xanatos!", Tony said with a very wry grin, flipping close his face-plate as he flew up to where Xanatos and Lexington are, and he then fired at Xanatos.
"What's wrong, Xanatos? You can't handle Ironman?", Tony taunted casually. "Let's see how you handle this, Stark!", Xantatos lifted up his hands, and a red energy sparked up, and fired at Tony, but luckily, he dodged with a taunt, "I have seen Girl Scouts who can throw better than that!".
I then used my powers to disintegrate a few of the robots, and I saw Steve take a few of them down while Natasha was able to take a few down as well. Clint fired his bomb arrows at one of them, and they exploded impressively while Hulk completely destroyed some robots by tearing their heads off.
I then saw Light fall to the ground with Demona aiming her laser blaster at her. "Goodbye, sister!", Demona spat with a snarl. Thinking fast, I used my telekinesis to blast Demona away from Light.
"Thank you, Jean.", Light said, giving me a quick thankful grin. I smiled as I nodded. "Goliath!", Brooklyn shouted, and I turned around to see Goliath and Coldstone fall to the water.
"Goliath, no!", I shouted in horror as I was about to run over, but Light held me back. "What do we do now?", Natasha asked worriedly.
Then Coldstone came out of the water, and he was carrying Goliath in his arms. He then landed, and placed Goliath on the ground. I along with the others ran over to Goliath, who was coughing up water.
"Goliath, are you okay?", I asked in worry. "I'm fine, Jean.", Goliath rumbled slowly with a soft smile at me. I sighed in relief.
"He's ok.", Coldstone said with a hesitant smile. "Thank you for saving him.", I said as I helped Goliath get up, glancing at Coldstone gratefully.
"We owe you one.", Steve said, and Coldstone nodded with a stronger smile. "Indeed. Thank you so much for saving Goliath for me.", Demona said with a smirk. I stood in front of Goliath, and then Steve stood in front of me, protecting us with his shield.
"You said that destroying my brother is the only way to survive. Is that all there is for us? Mere survival?" Coldstone asked in horror and confusion. "Isn't that enough?", Demona asked with a growl.
"No. Gargoyles protect. It is our nature, our purpose. To lose that is to be corrupt, empty lifeless.", Goliath said as he glanced at me briefly, and I nodded softly, knowing what Goliath meant.
"And Avengers protect as well. It's our duty in this world, and to lose what we are to be, that's torture.", Steve growled slightly. "And what do you protect?", Coldstone asked with a sneer.
"Enough of this!", Demona roared angrily as she fired at Goliath, but Coldstone then jumped to take the hit, and he let out a roar as he was sent flying over the bridge. "No!", Goliath roared in horror as he jumped after Coldstone, and we all watched as we edged near the railings of the bridge.
"At least I can finish all of you.", Demona said before a laser blasted her gun out of her hands. "I told you before. I want them alive.", Xanatos said, sounding disappointed and slightly angry.
We then heard growling and snarling, and we then saw Bronx tackle Xanatos. "Don't move!", Elisa said as she arrived with Hudson, pointing her gun at Xanatos. "It's over, Xanatos!", Tony said as he lit up his hands.
"I don't think so.", Xanatos said with a snort. Xanatos then started to fly off, and he grabbed Demona. "Know this, Xanatos, you are now a enemy of the Avengers!", Tony shouted with a furious tone in his voice as his face-plate lifted up.
"How I hate those two.", I said with a frustrated huff. Goliath then came back, and I ran over to him. "Goliath, did you find him?", I asked anxiously.
"No, he is gone.", Goliath said, looking upset with a shake of his head. I hugged him gently, and even though he was wet, I didn't care as he clearly wanted comfort. "Let's head back to the tower.", Steve said with a deep sigh.
I felt so bad for Goliath. I mean, he and his clan were reunited with a member of their clan, only for Xanatos and Demona to turn him into a cyborg, and now he was gone.
I told Goliath that we will help him find Coldstone no matter what, and he seemed grateful for the encouragement. Now Xanatos is our enemy, but since he is so rich, we didn't press charges against him even though Tony wanted to, much to his dismay.
