AnonGirl88- he, Pyro has no chance of escape now that Fishy's guarding him.

Risty- Gratuitous groin shots are awfully fun, aren't they? Well, not from the point of view of the guy that's receiving them though. Heh.

Agent-G- Sorry but no, Scorpy isn't the last member of the Sinister Six, Venom is. Yup, it's Spidey's turn now.

Notes- I'm sorry about the delay in updating, Ive been on holiday y'see but I'm back and raring to get ficcing again. So, here we go...

The Rainbow Bridge, Asgard-

Loki, the Norse God of Evil, or Mischief, as he will be known through the duration of this chapter, was brooding over his latest defeat at the hands of his stepbrother, Thor, the God of Thunder.

'I doth not even know why I doest bother.' Loki muttered. 'My accursed stepbrother doth halt me at every turn. Perhaps it is time for me to seek out some new opponents.'

Loki waved a hand in front of him and a magical viewing portal appeared. Loki peered into the portal and watched several brightly coloured figures fighting a giant robot. (For those of you keeping score at home, Loki is watching the events of 'Day of Reckoning' as the X-men and the Brotherhood fight the Sentinel.)

'Hmm, these mortals doth look like most worthy adversaries. Perhaps it is time for me to pay Midgard a visit.'

And with that, Loki waved his arms and disappeared with a 'Bamf!'

Xavier's-

Peter, Rahne, MT and Sam were hanging out in the kitchen. Just recently, Sam had started to become a big fan of fantasy role-playing games. This new obsession soon made him the butt of many jokes. Ray even went as far as to call him 'Dungeon Master.'

'I dinnae even see what we havtae play this game with ye.' Rahne sighed. 'There isnae even a werewolf in the game. That's lycanthropist.'

'You're just saying that because you suck at this.' Pete kind-heartedly teased.

'So says the guy that's an injured dwarf with the magical power of a doily.' MJ replied with a grin.

Pete just stuck his tongue out at his childhood friend.

'Can yah jus' roll the thing?' Sam asked. 'This game isn't to be taken lightly.'

'As you wish... Dungeon Master.' MJ replied.

Sam just ignored his girlfriend's teasing and watched as peter threw the dice.

'That's a five for me.' He said as he picked up his playing piece and moved the respective amount of spaces.

'Aha!' Rahne said with a huge grin on her face. 'I use m' fire spell on ye, reducing' yuir hit points by five.'

'Nu-uh.' Peter replied. 'I've got an anti-fire spell that counteracts yours, therefore making it useless.'

'Not if I use my time wrap amulet.' MJ added. 'Which now reduces your hit points by a further eight.'

'Aww crap.' Peter muttered. 'I'm out of the game.'

'I'm afraid that I havtae drop out too.' Rahne added. 'I jus' cannae get intae this game.'

'Why give up, Furtop?' MJ asked. 'You're winning.'

'Ah'm gonna have tah go as well.' Sam added. 'Ah promised Mister McCoy that ah'd help him in his lab.'

'Well I guess the game's over.' MJ said. 'Shame though, as much as it would ruin my rep to admit it, I kinda enjoyed myself.'

Everybody got up off their seats and helped Sam pack away all the game pieces and cards. They were just about to leave when Paige ran into the room.

'You'd better come see what's on the TV guys.' She said, panting heavily. 'There's trouble downtown!'

A Top-Secret SHIELD Military Base, an hour or so earlier-

All was quiet in the miscellaneous military base. The guards on duty were almost asleep because of the lack of activity. What the guards didn't know that they had an uninvited visitor in the form of Loki, the God of Mischief! Shielded from sight due to an invisibility spell, Loki easily sneaked past the guards.

{Hmm, I doth wonder where yon mortals doth keep those metal giants.} Loki thought to himself. {Aha, this must be it. Sentinel Bay. Yon signs are most useful. Although, I didst think that such monstrosities were no longer made. I matters not, all this is insignificant to my plan.}

Loki sneaked into the Sentinel Bay and took a look around.

{Yon machines are most impressive, for mere mortals.}

Loki waved his hands again and the three Sentinels standing before him began to glow. Soon, they started to merge into one, becoming a three-headed, six-armed monster.

{I couldst only imagine what fun I couldst use these for.} Loki thought. 'Now, fly my pretties, off to Bayville you doth go!'

With another wave of his hands, Loki magically activated the Tri-Sentinel and flew out of the hangar, smashing through the roof as it went. The guards on duty ran into the hangar to see what caused the din. All they could do was look up into the sky as the Trio-Sentinel flew off into the night.

'Fury's gonna have our butts for this one.' One guard groaned.

Downtown Bayville, now-

Peter, Rahne and Sam were all suited up. MJ had elected to stay back at the mansion as she was a regular human and wouldn't have been much help against three giant killer robots. They were also joined by TJ, Wanda and Kurt.

'Well this is new.' Peter said. 'I've never had to fight a three-headed robot before.'

'We're old hands at this, Peter.' Wanda replied. 'We've fought one of these before, it was one of the hardest fight of my life.'

'One?' Pete asked. 'You guys barely beat one of these things? How're we gonna beat three?'

'Ve'll try, Peter. Kurt replied. 'Zhat's vhat being and X-men is all about.'

No sooner had TJ said that then the Tri-Sentinel turned all three of its heads towards them.

'One of these days I'm gonna learn to keep my mouth shut.' Peter muttered.

'These things shouldn't be so hard to beat.' TJ said. 'Back home, it seemed like we were fighting gangs of these every other week, they were a dime a dozen.'

'All this fighting is well an' good.' Rahne added. 'But we're nae closer tae beatin' it.'

'I was kinda thinking of hitting it 'til it fell down.' Peter replied as he webbed one of the robot's hands, as it was about to blast him.

'Sounds good to me.' Kurt replied. 'What about you uzzer guys?'

'I thought we were doing that already.' Wanda replied as she hexed another of the robot's hands.

'Point.' Kurt shrugged as he teleported out of the way of a giant foot.

And so the battle continued as the heroes carried on with their seemingly fruitless attempts at hexing, slashing or webbing with all they had.

Unseen by the gang of mutants, Loki was watching them from high atop a building.

'Yon heroes doth battle well.' Loki said to himself. 'Mayhap yon metal monstrosity was too easy a test for them.'

Loki continued to watch the action as it unfolded. Just when it appeared that the Tri-sentinel had crushed the Scarlet Witch with a giant foot, said food was blown apart by a colossal hex bolt. Seeing the first sign of weakness, the others piled onto it and mounted a fierce attack. TJ followed suit as she blasted the Tri-Sentinel in the knee with a hex bolt of her own, Rahne slashed at it's foot with her claws, Peter webbed its legs together and held them taught while Sam flew towards it, knocking it over.

Our heroes watched as the Tri-Sentinel tried to compensate for its loss of one limb and the simultaneous attacks from the gang of mutants as it tottered over before falling to the ground with a colossal boom. Before it could even regain its footing, Wanda and TJ both blasted all three of its faces with simultaneous hex bolts, turning them to slag.

'Vell zat vas deceptively easy.' Kurt said as he dusted himself off.

'Yeah.' Sam replied. 'Ah was kinda hopin' that the fight had lasted longer.'

'Look at it this way guys.' Peter replied. 'With no more Tri-Sentinel, we can all go back to the mansion and watch TV.'

'Besides.' TJ added. 'I think Wanda has something to tell everyone.'

'Care to tell us now, liebe?' Kurt asked.

'I'd rather tell you later.' Wanda replied. 'I'm tired and I want to have a rest, I've been feeling kinda of weird these past few days.'

The others just let that go, assuming that it was merely a case of the flu. Above their heads, Loki stomped his foot like a petulant child.

'Curses! These mortals will rue the day that they didst cross Loki, the God of Evil! BWAHAHAHAHAAA!'

And with that, Loki disappeared with another 'Bamf!'

END...

Next: It's time for beer, strippers and... more beer as Todd and Felicia have their bachelor and bachelorette parties.
