We need serious back up

The mood was dark as Fury stood at the head of the table. Everyone sat in silence, even Stark who usually would have made some remark said nothing.

"About thirty minutes ago something very big and very hostile entered the space surrounding Earth, as Loki was able to tell us, it was Thanos." Fury stopped for a moment and everyone held their breath even though we all knew who it was, it was still a shock. We all knew it was going to happen sooner or later, but I guess we all just preferred to put it out of our minds.

"Now for some odd reason he hasn't attacked or sent a message. We can only assume that he is waiting for something, what we don't know that either."

"So what do we know?" Clint asked raising an eyebrow. "So far it seems like we got a whole lotta nothin."
Fury sighed and sat down, "That's about all we have, nothing. The only thing we know for sure is that he has a huge ass army and this time he's made a personal appearance."

Everyone was silent, finally I plucked up the courage to ask the question everyone was thinking.

"Do you think we have a chance at beating him?"

"What?"

"Do you think we can win? I mean, the first time the chitauri were here they gave you avengers a run for your money. That was only one battleship, this is, well this is a ridiculous amount more."

"... If you want the truth kid, I don't know. I've called in every SHIELD asset I had, every dept anyone has ever owed SHIELD, I've called in every battle force the US has and then some. Peter is on his way here too, and do you want Rose here as well?"
"Yeah, that would be great."

"Good, because I've already had someone sent to pick him up." And with that Fury stood up once again, he looked everyone of us in the eye. "I want you all ready to go out and fight at a moments notice, Chilly I know you just lost Bowtie but I need you and Jayfeather with your heads on straight. So don't get kill just because you're sad, better yet don't get killed at all." Wow Fury, I think that might have been the nicest thing you've ever said to anyone ever.

"Now everyone go get ready, and Stark we have people out and taking care of the tower mess."

"Have you found anything that we might want to see?" Stark asked, I think we all knew that he was asking about Bowtie and a numbness went through me.

"No, now go." We all stood and left, Ember came with me since, like me, she didn't have a battle suit to get into.

"Do you think we could die?" Ember asked on the way back, I shrugged. The idea had passed my mind more than a few times.

"Possibly, probably." I don't think I was helping.

"Oh great we're going to die!" Ember said sarcastically but I could tell she was worried as much as I was.

"We'll be fine, anyway did you hear about the backup Fury's getting?" I said trying to sound encouraging. Whether it was for my benefit of hers I wasn't sure.

"Somehow I don't think even that'll be enough." We looked at each other, we needed to bring in our own help.

Apparently Thor had the same idea as us.

"Friends I will leave for Asgard and I shall bring back an army to face this threat."

"And if he attacks when you're gone?" Steve asked as we walk out onto the flight deck.

"Them I shall be quick, our army is formidable."

"Hey Thor, um, we have a question for you." I said glancing at Ember, she nodded. "Do you think that Odin would approve of the fact that we want to invite Fenrir, Jormungand, and Hela to come and fight with us?" Everyone looked surprised.

"I do not know if my father would approve-"
"Oh come on Thor," Ember groaned, "You know we need as much help as we can get, these guys will be able to help out a lot." She insisted.

"Uncle Thor," Vali said. "May Odin let me meet my brothers and sister for the first time?" Oh man, that was right, Vali probably never met those three. He might have never even have met Sleipnir. Thor looked at Vali, something I couldn't identify showed in his eyes. Than he nodded,

"As future king of Asgard I am granting your wish, you may go and ask them if they wish to join the fight."

"Thank you uncle!" Vali said grinning, so was Loki.

"I must leave now." Thor said, we watched as the light of the bifrost shown down and sucked Thor up to Asgard.

"So," I said turning to the rest. "We've got some backup to go get."

I was currently sitting in a quinjet with a random pilot. We had decided that I was going to go get Jormungand, Ember and Vali were getting Fenrir, and Loki was getting Hela. We were doing this job just incase the attack started while we were gone and Fury didn't want his MVP team scattered. That kind of hurt, what Fury you don't think I'm good enough? DO YOU? Anyway we landed on the island and I hopped off.

"You sure you don't want me to give you a ride back? I don't see how you're going to do that on your own." The pilot of course didn't know about Jor, he only knew to fly here.

"No, I got it. Thanks though." I watched as he flew away into the distance and disappeared. I took of my shoes, socks, and coat. I went over to the water side and kept going until the water reached my chin, not exactly what I would have liked but this was what Loki said to do in order to get Jormungand to come to me. I held my breath before going under and I yelled,

"Jormungand!" I came up for air quickly and went back under. "Loki needs youuuuuuuu!" I came up breathing and then waited as Loki said to do. I drifted out a bit more so my toes weren't touching the bottom. Floating there was very uncomfortable, suddenly I saw something approach me from my peripheral vision, it went back under and disappeared.

"Jormungand?" I twisted around to see if I could see it again, again I just barely caught it, this time it was closer. Please oh please let that be Jormungand. The tide was bringing me out more and more, something brushed my leg. It was smooth and not scaly like a snake. Oh no. I got a good look at what was circling me, let me tell you it was something you would want to meet in the wild at anytime in your life. It was a shark. A fucking shark. Are you kidding me.

I started to paddle back to shore but the shark was gliding towards me at an impressive speed, I was dead. Put that one on my headstone, 'Chilly, eaten by a shark while summoning a giant snake to save the world.' Yeah, that'll look great. As I was thinking about how the team could possibly survive without me, something erupted out of the water right under the shark. The waves pushed me all the way back to shore, I dragged myself out of the ocean and turned around to see Jormungand shaking his head side to side and flinging bits of shark all over the place. He then ate the shark and roared.

"Hey Jormungand!" I yelled waving at him, I shuttered as shark bits landed near me. He turned to me and roared again, this time non-aggressive like and he sounded happy. He swam over to me and half way onto the sand before plopping his head down next to me. He looked at me and tilted his head.

'Chilly, why doesssss my father need help?' I was startled when a hissing voice sounded in my head. I looked closely at Jormungand, if Fenrir had the power to speak with his mind then it would make sense that Jormungand could too.

Uh, well, we all need your help actually. The world is kind of in danger and we need you and your siblings to help. Thor said it was okay for you guys to do so without having to worry about Odin... so will you help?

If that is sssssso, then of course I ssssshall help you mortal. Midgard isssss my home and I will defend it til my lassssst breath.

Thanks Jor.

It isssss nothing, now let usssss be off.

Um Jormungand.

Yesssss Chilly?

I kind of need a ride.

Ember and Vali stood shivering in coats and watched as the quinjet flew out of sight.

"Lady Ember how will we call to my brother?" Vali asked looking around the beaten icey land. Vali was sort of nervous about meeting Fenrir and Ember could understand why. This was kind of a big deal.

"Loki said to call his name, so..." Ember inhaled deeply before, "FENRIRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR" Vali was so startled by the outburst that he almost fell over. They looked around and continued to see nothing.

"I believe we just wait now." Vali said, Ember nodded, she then smugly reached into her coat pocket and pulled out a mistletoe. While Vali looked for Fenrir she slid up behind him, held the plant over them and then spun him around.

"Merry christmas!" Vali was taken by surprise when Ember bashed their lips together, though he didn't fight her. When they pulled back Ember tossed the mistletoe aside and was about to say something when a voice entered their minds.

"Why have you mortals trespassed here." The two spotted Fenrir standing only yards away, before Ember could figure out how such a huge being could get that close without them noticing Ember heard another voice in her head.

"I am no mortal Fenrir Lokison. I am your half brother, Vali Lokison. The woman next to me is my companion, lady Ember. We have come seeking your help, Midgard is in danger and so with permission we are retrieving you and your siblings to help fight this threat. Will you join us?" While Vali had been speaking, Fenrir had walked the rest of the distance and now stood over them, he then laid on his stomach and stared at them both.

"You speak the truth for I have felt this threat myself. Very well, if my brother and sister are to do battle for Midgard, than so shall I."

"Thank you brother." Vali said out loud, Fenrir nodded before tilting his head.
"It does not appear that you two have a way back to the avengers."

"Yeah,"Ember said kind of embarrassed, "We were wondering if you could help us with that."

Hela knew something was wrong the moment Chilly's dog came bounding through her gates. He had first been directed by one of her spirit wolves to his personal afterlife, but she had known who he was and had intervened.

"Bowtie?" She had asked and when the dog responded she felt something twist in her gut. Something was terribly wrong if one of Chilly's beloved pets was here with her. She petted the dog while sitting on her throne, she was debating what to do when her father appeared before her.

"Father!" She exclaimed jumping up from her spot, she ran down the steps and embraced her parent.

"Hello my dear Hela." Loki said kissing her forehead, they let go of each other and Loki was nearly tackled by Bowtie who was barking excitedly. "Yes it's good to see you too Bowtie."

"Father what had happened? Why is Bowtie here with me?" Hela questioned, Loki shook his head sadly and said,

"Hela, Thanos has appearer. He plans on killing everyone in the nine realms, starting with Midgard."

"What of my brothers?" Hela asked worriedly.

"Others have been sent to get them, Hela, I ask you for a favor."

"What do you need Father?"

"Will you fight with us to defend the nine realms?"

"..."

"Hela?" Loki asked as she went stiff, than the ground started to rumble and Bowtie growled. "Hela what are you doing?" Hela said nothing as her eyes glowed and great amounts of mist gathered behind her as far as the eye could see and then so much farther. Warrior's ranging from mortals to Asgardians stepped from the mist. Loki watched as more creatures came forward. Frost giants, elves from the light and dark, dwarves, and animals from all species. They were all semi apparent too. Hela's eyes stopped glowing and she grinned.

"Father, why would even have to ask such a thing?"

When Thor had walked into the training grounds where Alvis was training alone, he knew it was time. He had taken Heimdal's advice and prepared, and now Alvis was ready to lead Asgard's army.

"My prince." Alvis bowed.

"Gather the troops, we go to Midgard and fight Thanos there. And be quick my friend, time grows short." Thor said quickly, placing one hand on Alvis's shoulder.

"Yes prince Thor."

The avengers were all prepared for battle. Chilly, Ember, and Vali had all returned from their missions. Though there had been slight panic when Jormungand had started to swim next to the currently boat like helicarrier and when Fenrir had hauled himself up onto said helicarrier and shook himself dry almost swamping it. And 'slightly panic' means mass chaos before everything was settled out. Rose had arrived and so had spider man, and every other being that Fury had called were in place. Only Thor and Loki were missing, but Fury still didn't think it was enough. No where close to enough, they still needed more. But they didn't have anyone left to call.

Fury had been talking to the avengers about battle plans when shouts came from outside the meeting room door. The door suddenly burst open and the avengers were ready to fight chitauri soldiers but what they saw surprised them, it was Viper from HYDRA and Amora with Skurge that walked through the door.

"Hello again avengers." Amora smirked. "I have come to collect my favor."

*Stands before you*

My dear friends, you who have stuck by me from the beginning of this tale, time draws short and the end is coming. Though I have asked things of you before I will ask you for one last thing.

Will you stand by me in this final battle?

Will you stand alongside one another and fight?

If you will, then give me your name and I will give you a weapon.

If you fight with me than our names shall be written in the stars.

So, will you fight?
