Also, this is fanfiction so things in here can't all be explained. Much like the movies lol. Please review!

"So what is this exactly?" Black Widow asked, looking at a picture that Tony had handed her.

"I don't know." Tony said, holding out his hands and walking towards her "I was hoping you might know. I thought it might have something to do with S.H.I.E.L.D."

"Well, if it does, I don't know anything about it." Black Widow responded "Have you tried contacting Fury?"

"See, I tried, but he's generally too busy to take my calls." Tony said, flicking his glasses around. They were all sitting in the living room of Stark/Avengers tower, looking at a blurry photo. Thor seemed particularly interested.

"Or he doesn't think it's worth his time." Hawkeye muttered, purposely loudly enough to be heard. His eyes flicked up to Tony, who dropped his hands in annoyance.

"You think this is funny, don't you?"

"No. Not funny at all." Hawkeye said with a small smile.

"Where was this taken?" Thor asked, looking at the picture in concern. It contained a blue blur that had the shape of a humanoid figure. It had one arm extended in an obvious strike position. Captain America stood near the window, arms folded as he looked out.

"Funny thing." Tony said, pointing at him "I have no idea.

"Then why do you have it?" Captain America asked. He leaned back on the window and looked at him with a rather contemptful expression.

"You know, I'm thinking about not telling you because that tone was very rude." Tony said, backing off with raised eyebrows.

"Okay." Hawkeye sat up "Let's go, Nat."

"Are you sure this isn't one of your own things?" Black Widow asked, looking up at him.

"Umm...yeah, because one of my 'things' took this picture." Tony said pointing at it again "And was then destroyed."

"Then why don't you know where it was?" Captain America asked, sounding slightly more sharp.

"I sent about twenty of my suits out a few days ago. They were examining some areas around the U.S. Scouting out, you could say, for land that I could purchase." Tony said, fiddling with a pencil "And, uh, I got this picture back a second before I lost all connections with the one that took it. And I mean like ALL connections." he waved his hands "Gone."

Black Widow set down the picture.

"So, what?"

"'So what.'" Tony mimicked "In order to cut all connections, something big has to happen. A short circuit or something." he tapped the picture a few times "How does THIS do that?"

Black Widow glanced at Hawkeye.

"I know how." Thor said, walking forward and picking up the picture "This is a frost giant. It can freeze things just by being near it, let alone attacking."

"What?" Captain America asked, walking over to him.

"They come from the realm Jotunheim." Thor said "Centuries ago, my father defeated them in battle and took away their power. They have not traveled through realms since. Until now."

"So this thing is alien?" Captain America asked, glancing at it.

"It is why I traveled here today." Thor replied "I had hoped they hadn't come in contact with any humans. That appears it may not be the case."

"So if they haven't been able to travel through realms, why are they able to do it now?" Black Widow asked, looking at him.

"They have found...an entrance into your realm." Thor said, hand over his chin "This should'nt have been possible. Heimdall, our watchman, noticed that they had broken through to Earth."

"Where?" Captain America asked.

"Well, I don't know, so I hope he does." Tony said.

Thor shook his head "We don't. I came to find out if any of you did."

"Stark, were any of these out of the United States?" Captain America asked.

"That's a good question." Tony said "Hey Jarvis?"

"Yes, sir." came a robot voice from around them.

"Where were the rest of the suits when the one went dead?" he asked.

"Several of them were in New Jersey, some were in Connecticut, and a few remained here in New York."

"So none were out of the U.S.?" Tony asked, walking over to his transparent computer screens.

"That is correct, sir."

"So there's a safe bet that the one I lost was in the United States." Tony said.

"Which state?" Captain America asked.

"You know, you're getting that tone that I don't like again." Tony replied.

"I don't like that you're not taking this seriously." Captain America said "Or do not remember what happened right ouside this building?"

"Oh you're damn right I do." Tony said, face serious now.

"We have Earth under watch and I will remain here until I have found where they entered." Thor said.

"Where's Banner?" Tony asked, looking around even though he knew he wasn't there "I told him to come, where is that S.O.B.?"

"Where are we supposed to start looking?" Captain America asked Thor.

"Well in New Jersey, uh Conneticut, and New York." Thor replied simply, with a wave of his hand.

"Those are rather big areas." Black Widow said, peering up at him with a raised eyebrow.

"We need to start somewhere." Captain America replied, taking steps toward the elevator "How will we identify where they came in, Thor?"

"We can't." Thor replied "Unless we find it ourselves and go through or they come in themselves for us to see."

"So we have to wait for them to attack before we can do anything?" Black Widow asked.

"We're going to keep watch on Asgard. Heimdall will warn us." Thor said.

"I thought you said he couldn't see them." Captain America asked sharply.

"He can see all activity on Jotunheim." Thor replied, sounding serious "We are not responsible for the actions of other realms."

"We need to tell Fury about this." Black Widow said, standing up.

"It will be on national news soon if they invade again." Captain America said.

"That's why we need to get to Conneticut, New Jersey, and New York to search for them." Thor replied.

"It might be better if we have somewhere else to stay." Captain America said "Somewhere off the charts. We can't stay here, too many people will notice."

"Well, I was going to offer here, but it sounds like you have somewhere else in mind?" Tony said questioningly, holding out a hand to him.

"No." Captain America replied, looking at him in annoyance "I was just saying it might be better to keep low."

"No, offense, but wouldn't it be best if people knew about this?" Black Widow asked.

"Mass panic has never been helpful." Captain America said.

"I mean, the government." Black Widow replied "Fury should probably know about this."

"Didn't we already have this conversation?" Tony asked "Fury doesn't want to answer."

"You." Black Widow said.

"Oh I'd like to see you try to contact him. If he answers you, I'm out." Tony said, hands up "We can't be friends."

"We don't have time to wait for Nick Fury." Thor jumped into the conversation "We need to start securing borders now."

"How do we know this isn't happening...all over the world?" Tony asked. Captain America looked at Thor.

"There is no way to know this." Thor replied "But we to start somewhere."

"Well if you can all stop arguing, I have a place we can stay at." Hawkeye said, glancing around. As they looked at him, he took a deep breath "It's completely off charts."

"Where?" Captain America asked.
