Danny followed the others to the ship and waited a second for them to grab all of the gear that they needed for this mission, Danny didn't need any gear so he was fine. The blond man had put on a blue and red suit And grabbed a round shield off the wall. Danny could not believe that he didn't notice before, that was Captain America.
As soon as Nat saw that Danny was going on the mission with them she walked over to cap. "Be careful with him." She shifted her eyes toward Danny who was just looking at the equipment and weapons they had on the walls. "We don't know much about him, and he is dangerous." She warned. Cap looked back at the boy, thinking he seemed harmless, but decided to nod in understanding at the woman's warning. Better safe than sorry, and if she felt that she needed to tell him specifically he could be a problem.
The team walked onto the ship, they were accompanied by one other Agent who seemed quite tense around the boy Cap noticed.
Nat walked up to the front of the ship sitting down in the pilot seat, while Danny, Steve, and the other agent sat in the back of the ship buckling up in the seats. Cap sat next to Danny while the other guy sat across from them. Danny sighed looking out of the window as they took off, hoping helping these guys wasn't a mistake.
"We will be there in 6 minutes." Nat's voice rang out.
Danny continued to look out the window but was secretly ready for anything. Steve decided to start a conversation with the boy, he couldn't be that dangerous could he? "Hey, my name is Steve." He stuck his hand out towards the boy. "What is yours?" Danny looked at him with quite a surprised look, he wasn't worried about him, nothing. He hesitantly shook the man's hand.
"Danny, Danny Phantom." He introduced. Cap realized how cold the boy's hand was but didn't say anything, that was definitely not normal but the boy seemed fine. Cap noticed how bright the boy's eyes glowed now, they were a toxic green color. Danny then pulled his hand away. "You don't seem all tense or worried about me being here," Danny questioned the man.
Cap smiled back and glanced at the Agent who was looking quite jumpy sitting across from them. "I tend to judge people off of what I see myself." He answered.
Danny looked quite surprised by this, "really? You mean you don't have a problem with me?"
Cap nodded, he wasn't expecting the boy to be so surprised with someone trusting him. Nat's voice rang out again. "Guys Loki is here. and he has civilians gathered around." Danny and cap stood up, and Nat opened the back. "Phantom, just stay here for now. Let Cap handle this. You are the backup." Danny nodded and walked to the front of the ship to see what was happening.
One man had stood up from the group and was talking to Loki who didn't seem pleased. Danny's eyes widened as he was just about to blast the man with his staff. He almost jumped out of the jet if it wasn't for the Captin jumping out first. He landed in front of the man protecting him from Lokis blast with a shield. The blast ricocheted off of the shield and hit Loki knocking him off of his feet. And Cap started to talk.
"You know, last time I was in Germany, I saw a man standing above everyone else, we ended up disagreeing." Loki started to stand up to his feet, glaring at the man.
"The soldier." He chuckled. "The man out of time."
"I am not the one who is out of time." He turned away to the side a bit as the jet pulled up behind him. Nat pressed a couple of buttons causing a machine gun to pop out of the bottom of the jet aiming directly at Loki.
Nat's voice rang through the speakers. "Loki drop the weapon and stand down." Danny was surprised that she was aiming the gun with all of those people there, but he was sure that she wouldn't fire, right?
Loki paused for a second, then span around and shot a blue blast out of his staff up at the ship. Danny's eyes widened as Nat steered out of the way of the blast and it nearly missed them. While Loki was firing, cap through his sheld at him knocking off balance a bit. He then ran closer to him and started punching. People started to scatter. Even with Cap's superhuman strength, he couldn't knock the Asgardian down.
Loki rose his staff up again and blasted Caps shield out of his hand causing it to clatter to the ground quite far from him, he then started shooting more blasts trying to hit the captain as he dodged them. Danny realized quickly that they had hit the building behind them causing a large chunk of it to start falling towards a bunch of civilians. Danny quickly fazed through the ship's windshield and jumped underneath the rubble creating a green dome shield around him and the other terrified people.
The rubble smashed on impact with the shield and landed on the ground next to them. Danny dropped the shield and the people ran away as fast as they could. He then turned towards Cap and Loki still fighting, now more in hand to hand with some occasional blasts being shot, most ending up shooting up at the sky instead of people which Danny was grateful for.
Danny was now flying in the air above the screaming people, Danny shot a single less powerful blast at Lokis back causing him to turn his head around to see who shot him, Danny quickly turned invisible and flew to the side and shot him once more. Loki growled and shot a single blast at the sky next to where Danny was. Cap looked over there as well and was surprised not to see anyone, or where the blast came from.
Danny paused for a second hearing rock music start to come out of the jet he was in a couple of seconds ago. Suddenly there was what looked like a rocket come flying towards them, and then a blast shot from it hitting a distracted Loki, knocking him to the ground and causing him to drop his staff just out of reach.
The rocket turned out to be a suit of armor. Not just any armor, the iron man armor. Danny was awestruck as it smashed into the concrete with a cool landing. He had never seen the iron man armor in real life, it was super cool. The armor opened up all of its weapons and aimed them all at Loki who was now sitting on the ground.
"Make a move reindeer games." Iron man said not moving his blasters. Cap walked up next to Stark holding his shield that he had just grabbed off of the ground. Loki slowly raised his hands in defeat his gold armor dissipating off of him in a stream of light. Stark powered down his weapons but was still ready to blast Loki if he made any sudden moves. "Good move."
Cap spoke up. "Mr. Stark."
"Caption," Tony responded dryly.
Danny then faded back into visibility behind Loki and slowly floated towards the ground. Cap stood back a bit started at the sudden appearance, while Tony had a puzzled look under his helmet. "The green blasts, those were you?" Cap asked. Danny nodded in response. He started walking towards them, as the jet started to land.
Nat and the other agent walked out holding handcuffs for Loki. Nat eyed Danny after they put them onto Loki. "You were supposed to be back up."
Tony looked between the two, while Cap tilted his head a bit. Danny had helped why was she mad. Danny had a slightly puzzled look on his face. "Those people were about to be crushed. I was just supposed to sit back with my feet up?" He asked gesturing angrily behind him at the fallen debris from the fight. "What did you think I was going to try to attack them or something?" He asked with slight anger in his voice.
Tony noticed that the agent standing next to them reached for his blaster when the boy rose his voice. Same with Nat it was more like she was tensing reading for a fight. The other agent seemed to be more worried about Danny being there than Loki. Tony thought for a second, this kid was not on the avengers initiative program, but he felt slightly like he recognized him, he would need to check on that later.
When Danny walked closer to the ship and Loki saw him he had a slightly surprised look on his face. Like Danny was something he wasn't expecting in his master plan. "Shouldn't we be getting him back?" Danny asked dryly as he walked onto the jet. Steve and the Agent grabbed Loki and put him on the jet as well.
After they took off Tony walked closer to the front of the jet next to Nat and Steve. Danny was closer to the back and the Agent was next to Loki with his hand on his weapon. Nat was talking to Fury over the comms about Loki. "Is he saying anything?"
"Not a word," Nat answered with no emotion in her voice.
"Just get him here, we are low on time." Nick then hung up.
Tony spoke up in a more of a quiet voice so that Danny wouldn't hear their conversation. "Who is the kid?"
"That's Phantom, Fury brought him in for his experience on Ectoplasm."
"Ectoplasm?" Steve asked.
Tony tilted his head. "I thought it was extremely rare."
"In some places yes."
"Why are you all so jumpy around him?"
"Because they don't trust me." Danny's voice was heard, causing them to turn back to face the boy who had gotten up and started getting closer. "But I don't trust them either, so I guess we are even."
"You heard us talking?" Tony asked.
"It was hard not to hear. But that's not why I came over. I don't know, don't you think that he gave up too easily?" Danny asked. "Like this dude had to of had a plan, he wouldn't just show up attack a few people and they give up after a few shots." Danny gave Loki a side glace. "He reminds me of someone, and if he is anything like the fruitloop I know he has something up his sleeve." He looked around at the people giving him strange glances. "You don't have to trust me to be able to tell I am right." Danny's voice was quite echoey Tony noticed.
"He did give up way too early. All it took was a couple of blasts, I think the kids right. I don't remember it being that easy." Cap said leaning back againstd the wall not taking his eyes off of Loki.
Suddenly lightning struck next to the ship. Nat looked up through the windshield at the sky. "Where is this coming from?"
Danny questioned under his breath. "Vortex?"
Another lightning struck even closer to the ship, and Loki started looking a bit worried. Cap spoke up. "What's the matter? Scared of a little lightning?"
Loki turned to look up at the captain. "I am not overly fond of what follows." Then a huge something hit the ship causing it to shake, knocking everyone off balance. Danny stood in a redyed position for a fight and his hands started to glow green slightly. Cap gave the boy a side glance. This kid was a fighter.
Tony reached for his helmet putting it over his head and walked towards the back of the ship, and opened the back readying to fly out there and find out what had hit them. But just as it opened someone jumped down into the ship holding a hammer and wearing a red cape. Loki had a quite worried look on his face, as he tried to back away slightly.
Tony charged up a repulsor blast and was about to fire it at the man when he was hit in the chest with the large hammer the man was holding, throwing him back. The man then reached forward and grabbed Loki out of his chair and jumped out the back of the plane. Tony got up, "And now there is that guy." He grumbled.
"Another Asgardian?" Nat called out.
"That guy's a friendly." Cap answered.
"Doesn't matter," Tony responded angrily turning back to Cap. "If he frees Loki or kills him, the tesseracts lost."
"Stark we need a plan of attack."
"I have a plan, Atack." Tony turned around and flew out the back of the jet, Danny jumped into the air as well and took off after Tony to make sure he didn't get himself killed.
Nat sighed at the fact that Phantom had left as well. She turned around to see Cap grabbing a parachute and strapping it to himself. "I'd sit this one out Cap."
"I don't see how I can."
"These guys come from legend. They are basically gods."
"There is only one God ma'am. And I am pretty sure that he doesn't dress like that." He turned around grabbing his shield and then dove out of the back of the aircraft.
