Lady Alseroen walked I the door of the cramped room and made her way to the front to stand before her public and said. "As many of you should know Frigga is Odin's wife, but since I made Sariana, Valenso and Aldona up, I'll tell you some facts: right Aldona is the Veela goddess of Death and the Underworld she's the daughter of Sariana Goddess of Motherhood, Marriage and Family and her husband Valenso God of Life, Fatherhood and Rulers (Kings and Queens), both Sariana and Valenso are King and Queen of the Veela pantheon. I'd like to apologize for the cramped room but the normal one is being renovated and is going to be in that state for a couple more chapters. Now I'll shut the hell up so you can read the story apart from saying that I've made adjustments. I'd like you to note that I will only name the location that the scene is taking place." after saying her piece Alseroen left her public alone to hopefully enjoy the chapter.
Chapter II
(Different times and locations across the world)
Helicarrier, west of NYC, America
Nick Fury was currently sitting in his office reading a report on what had happened in the Tesseract facility.
To say Fury was pissed was a sever understatement; he had lost one of his two best agents and Dr. Selvig. After the incident he had ordered everyone that had survived back to the Helicarrier, then he ordered the activation of the Avengers Initiative but there was just one little problem; one of the Avengers was extremely hard to find and to date only four people knew where he was but that wasn't the problem, the problem was that they wouldn't say where he was only that he was somewhere in America and in Fury's opinion that wasn't helpful at all.
Fury sighed; he had just sent Agent Coulson after Tony Stark and Steve Rogers and The Black Widow after Bruce Banner. But Fury didn't know what to do in regards to Harry James Landsel Aîndar Potter the missing Avenger as he had tried everything that he and the techies could think of to find him but nothing had worked. 'Maybe he's waiting for the right moment to come out or waiting for something to happen' Fury thought hopefully, but he didn't know that he would probably come to regret adding Harry Potter to the Avengers Program.
His thoughts were interrupted by an Agent running in to his office looking quite worried and out of breath.
Potter Hideout, south of NYC, America (The irony is not lost on me)
Since Harry had 'disappeared' he had studied every Muggel and Magical subject that existed just to stave off the boredom other than doing paperwork which was not fun. He had been a genius with no qualifications but once he started to study he had learned that he had a higher IQ than Tony Stark, which he would like to point out that several people had said that that was impossible; they had obviously never met him then because those that had known him knew that he and impossibility never mixed under any circumstances no matter what said circumstances where.
He had completed the exams necessary to graduate primary, secondary, university, and college , he had also taken all the Mastery's that were present in the Magical world so now he was fully capable to do any job in the world.
Right now Harry was sitting at his desk in his lab designing updates for his security system, he had to keep one step ahead of SHIELD and the others that wanted him in order to stay hidden, because what was the point of a hideout if everyone knew the location?
An hour later the alarm started to blare throughout the house, this alarm was tied into the surveillance system that was keeping an eye on his parents, the Ministry's, SHIELD, and any others organization that was looking for him for one reason or another. Harry jumped up from his desk and ran to the nerve centre of his house where the security, wards, surveillance and any other system he had were housed and monitored and the location of said nerve centre was only known to him, when he got there he saw that Fury had activated the Avengers Initiative which for him wasn't bad, but then that notion went flying spectacularly out the window when he watched what happened in the Tesseract facility and particularly who had caused it, what had happened wasn't the problem it was who had caused it that was.
Harry closed his eyes and supposed that this was going to happen sooner or later though he had dearly hopped that it would be later; in fact by later he meant far in to the future as in when he was dead. He also knew that he was going to be skinned alive by his grandparents for being the reason that Midguard was in danger no matter if he had intentionally caused it or not, besides at least he wasn't the one that would be explaining how they knew of his existence to Frigga and Sariana.
New York, Abandoned Subway line, America
Loki the Asgardian God of Mischief and Trickery was overlooking the work and progress that Dr. Selvig was making. He was pleased with the speed at which the Dr. was working at thought he hopped that it would be done soon so he could get started on the plan that he and Aldona had drawn up.
It had been about a year ago that he and Aldona had found out that their son was no longer among the living, it had been a hard blow to them because now they knew that they should not have left him even if they thought that the other had survived, that night had taught them the lesson that they all ways had to be sure of everything before making a decision, especially that involved family.
NYC, Stark Mansion, America
Tony Stark was working in his basement trying to enhance the Iron Man suit just because he was bored, but also waiting impatiently for Stark Tower to be habitable. Tony Stark was many things but he wasn't patient. Whilst he worked he contemplated the appearance of a genius that had a higher IQ then him; he still didn't know how to feel in regards to that.
Right now all he wanted was to meet the person that had done what most people had said and even considered, was impossible.
Boxing gym, NYC, America
Steve Rogers's a.k.a Captain America was beating up a punching bag, thinking about the technological advances that had happened since being frozen in ice for more or less 70 years.
He thought back to the time he spent with his two best friends Anthony Stark and Charles Potter, those were the days that he wished he could go back to but he couldn't because both of them to his knowledge where dead. He knew that Anthony's son was alive and whilst that was a bit consoling his son was just downright annoying (like father, like son) but he didn't know if Charles' family was alive or not since the Potters all ways seemed to be able to tame the Stark's somewhat, but they also had the bad habit of disappearing without a single trace and could not be found by anything or anyone that tried. He would not rest until he found out if the Potters were still around but first he would have to get back in shape, and that was in his opinion.
Veela Realm, Aldona's palace
Aldona Veela Goddess of Death and the Underworld was sitting at the edge of a lake that was in the middle of her temple. She was observing Dr. Selvig's progress and Loki to make sure that he didn't make a mistake, right at this moment everything was going as planned but even if she wasn't a goddess of strategy she knew things could and sometime would go wrong when you least expected it to.
Both Loki and Aldona weren't aware that they were being watched by the very person that they thought was dead for a year.
Calcutta, India, Asia
Bruce Banner a.k.a the Hulk was sitting in front of his desk in his house in Calcutta, his thoughts were on one of two of his friends: Harry James Landsel Aîndar Potter.
He hadn't been afraid that he, Bruce, could turn into a big green monster, Harry's response when he had found that out was 'I have seen and faced worse, believe me because it's true.'
Harry had literally fallen out of the sky and a month after that Harry had woken up and they had exchanged secrets after a mistrustful introduction which had involved a fight that indicated that they were evenly matched, after a couple of misunderstandings and an explanation as to why the hell Harry had literally fallen out of the sky they became best friends, Harry had and still to this day claims that one of his experiments had literally gone to Hell in a hand basket and blown up but Bruce didn't believe a word of that explanation after all as far as he knew no one could be blasted from New York all the way to the Amazon rain forest just because of an explosion.
Bruce was to put it simply worried, extremely worried, the last time he had spoken to Harry was a week ago and they always called each other every forty-eight hours (AN: I know that that seems OTT but come on their being watched by a supper spy organization that neither of them trust one iota) to make sure SHIELD hadn't gotten either of them because both of them where on SHIELD's Danger list, which meant that you had done something to be considered a threat to society. His thoughts were interrupted by a little girl running in with a hand full of money.
Quinjet, on route to Calcutta
Natasha Romanoff a.k.a the Black Widow was on her way to Calcutta to convince Bruce Banner to help SHIELD but she doubted that she would be successful.
Her thoughts turned towards the only Avenger capable of hiding from SHIELD to date. Natasha had seen many different types of security systems but nothing like this. This system could not be hacked or anything else the techies tried, it seemed that every time they made progress they were booted back it was like the saying 'one step forward, two steps back' but instead of two steps back it was six steps back, eventually the techies had given up saying that 'If he wants to be found we will damn well find him, but until then, leave him the hell alone, because this is getting not only repetitive but annoying.'
They had been doing just that but now that they needed him, would he appear? That was the question that she desperately wanted an answer for.
Tesseract facility, Location: Unknown
Clint Barton a.k.a Hawkeye was overlooking the Tesseract experiment not knowing that in a couple of hours he would be controlled by a God that just so happened to be his brothers father, and that the base would be destroyed by the back lash of a portal being forced to open.
Clint knew that his brother in everything but blood, Harry, didn't want to be found so he had made sure he didn't say anything about the hidden Avenger that would make people suspect that he knew something, Clint sighed and made plans that the next time he had leave he would go and stay with Harry for a while to relax knowing that no one would be able to find and bother him.
Clint thought back to the time that they had meet, he had been lost in the woods south of New York City, after a couple of hours of literally walking in circles he had stumbled on a palace like house in the middle of said forest. Clint had then knocked on the door after he had gotten over his surprise.
A couple of minutes latter a silvery–emerald eyed teen had answered the front door. After introductions and Harry explaining a little bit about the effect and workings of his protections to him it appeared that he, Clint, was a squib a person that had magical parents but didn't posses magic themselves.
Harry had then allowed him to have access to his house under the stipulation that he wouldn't inform SHIELD of where it was located, a while later he had been introduced to Bruce Banner and told not to fear him because there were worse things than the Hulk out there and Clint completely trusted Harry and thus believed him but he still wasn't certain about what could be worse than the Hulk.
Odin's study, Asguard's Palace, Asgardian Realm
Odin and Valenso were currently hiding in Odin's study; they were hiding from their wives. You can laugh all you like, but as the Midguardian saying goes 'Hell hath no fury like a woman scorned.' You see they hadn't told their wives about Harry, their grandson, and when Frigga and Sariana had found out that Odin and Valenso had known about Harry since he was 14 years old, they had been beyond pissed off; hence the reason why the Kings of Asguard and the Veela Gods were hiding in Odin's office from their wives.
Both of their thoughts were on their grandson, wondering that if he was here would he save them or would he say that they deserved it and start running for the high hills out of their wives war path?
Funnily enough both of them thought that he would choose the later simply because it presented the best chance of survival.
Ignored part of creation that has fallen out of memory
In a distant, ignored and forgotten part of creation resided a woman with a heart shaped face framed with light blonde hair permanently stuck in the wind, with unfocused white eyes, ruby red lips and a small nose. This woman was of average height; she wore a pure white dress that seemed to be stuck in a breeze and black ancient Greek style sandals. She was sitting at her desk with a quill poised as if ready to write something at a moment's notice.
Suddenly, her face blanked of all emotion, her mouth opened and mist shrouded her in a seemingly protective way; her hand began writing whilst she said in a voice that would make anyone listening shiver with dread and cold:
The Son of Mischief and Death,
Shall rise out of a world of lies.
Only six shall be able to find him,
He shall make a choice.
To raise or preserve all that exists,
Some will want to use him,
Some will want to harm him,
Some will want his forgiveness,
And some will want to help him.
The Son of Mischief and Death,
Shall rise out of a world of lies.
When the woman's mind came back to her body and the mist began to dissipate she looked down at the piece of parchment that had the prophecy written on it, as she read it, she smiled remembering what she witnessed in her vision. She said into the silence that surrounded her; "Good luck Son of Mischief and Death, May your enemies fall before you with fear and may your traitorous friends beg for your mercy!"
NEXT DAY
Potter Hideout, South of NYC, America
Harry had stayed up the whole night making preparations to come out of hiding no matter how reluctant he was in doing so, he had been careful when he went out during the time he had been hiding of course, it hadn't only been because of the betrayals that he had been in hiding, there was also another reason that he didn't want to disclose to the public yet. He had sent out three owls; one to Sirius and Remus, one to the Weasley twins and one to the Goblins of Gringotts hoping that they wouldn't advise him against coming out into the open, but he doubted that they would as they had been encouraging him to come out of hiding as of late.
After finishing up the preparations, he went to the Room of Mirrors where he could see anything that was going on in the universe and that was why he was being called a bottomless well of information by his friends because he literally knew everything that had and was going to happen. He took a peek at what his parents were doing, his mother hadn't moved from her place by her lake whilst his father was talking to Clint and Dr Selvig most likely planning something that was going to give him a head ache, and that it would probably grab the attention of the whole world including the Wizarding world and not only that but also the attention of some of the Realms.
As soon as he checked up on Sirius, Remus, Bruce, Fred and George, he made his way to a second building on his property it was protected by a separate set of protections than the house, even if it was under the houses protections, all these protections were of his own creation some nice and some not so nice, depending on each person's definition of the word nice of course! This building held the back-ups to all of his systems; it was also his garage slash motor work shop. In it he had one of each type of car, he had seen pictures of the garages of car collectors and his definitely put them to shame, the reason for the collection was that when he had done everything that needed doing and after he had completed his Masteries and the exams, he had needed something to do and he decided to start a car collection and restoring them to prime condition, and if there wasn't one to be restored he would just build them up from the ground. After that he had branched out into motorbikes and did the same, after all of them were restored or built he had started to design his own cars and bikes whilst he had been restoring and building the cars and bikes he infused them with magic giving them several upgrades, he also made sure each of them ran smoothly and that they were ready for use in a second.
Harry chose a car at random, which happened to be a 1969 Boss 429 Mustang in black with green accents the interior was blood red leather. He got in after putting his bag in the passenger side, and set off hopefully in the direction of SHIELDs Helicarrier.
Whilst he was driving he thought about Clint and anger coursed through his veins, when this ordeal was over he was going to have some serious words with his father about mind controlling his friends. He considered Clint a brother in all but blood, he also saw Bruce the same way. When he was outside the wards he stopped and activated the systems to the maximum setting which only activated the nice wards that he had on the house, he also redirected the feed of his RoM (Room of Mirrors) to his touch pad, when he was done he went on his way.
#12 Grimauld Place, London, UK
Sirius and Remus stumbled down the stairs after they managed to convince themselves to get out of bed, and into the kitchen where they found an owl perched on the back of a chair. They stopped moving in surprise, after all they didn't get a lot of mail, let alone in the morning, when the bird spotted them it stuck its leg out.
"Moony, is it me or is that bird familiar?" Sirius asked curiously because he couldn't remember if he knew anyone that had an owl that looked at people like it owned the place.
"Honestly! You forget everything! Next thing I'll find out is that you forgot that you have a godson!" Remus shouted exasperated.
"Ouch that's harsh! Moony I'll have you know that I'll never forget that Harry's my godson," Sirius replied "besides the things I forget I've just dismissed as unimportant."
"I really don't think I want to know what you consider important or for that matter unimportant." Remus muttered as he removed the letter that was attached to the owls leg.
After giving the bird something to eat and drink he looked at the writing to see if he recognised it.
"Padfoot it's from Harry." Remus said after recognising the writing, in a second Sirius was next to him, tapping his foot impatiently on the floor. Remus rolled his eyes at Sirius' behaviour whilst opening the letter and reading it out loud.
"Dear Padfoot and Moony
I know that you will probably yell at me when we see each other again, especially when you find out what I'm about to do.
Right, I don't know how to break this to you easily so I'll just say it or well write it; my father has returned to this realm.
At that, both Marauders looked at each other in shock, not knowing what to say or even think, they had thought that Loki didn't have a reason to come back, but apparently he did.
Now, I'm going to guess that you want an explanation, and you'll get one. I have this feeling that whatever he's doing it's because of me, he's taken away a brother in everything but blood, I'm of course referring to Clint, he's lucky he only took one and not both. I'm going to keep praying that Bruce is safe and I'm not going to get involved. But I can't just sit on the sidelines and do nothing, even if it's not my fault and with my involvement being minor, especially if Clint and Bruce are involved.
From what I've seen from the ASM (all seeing mirrors), my mother's also in on the completely insane plan my father thought up with her help, all of us know that this realm also won't survive if I don't get involved.
Love Chaotic Riddle
P.S Sirius this time think before you do anything I don't want a repeat of fifth year and I'm counting on Remus to make sure you don't do anything stupid.
After Remus finished reading the letter there was a minute or two of silence, where both Marauders just stared at the letter. Their thoughts going a thousand miles a minute, then both looked at each other, knowing Harry enough to know that something bad was going to happen no matter what he did to try and prevent it they also knew that Harry was not going to face this alone.
Private sitting room, Asguards Palace, Asgardian Realm
Frigga and Sariana had calmed down some time ago and were amused that their husbands were hiding from them; though they did not know where they were hiding as Friggas sight wouldn't tell them.
Both where curious as to exactly how long Odin and Valenso had known about their grandson and if they had trained him in all the things a prince needed to know or had they known and done nothing, just letting him get on with his life not really knowing who he was or just how important he is. As they thought this, they wondered about which parent he took after, they knew the basics, that's all their husbands had managed to get out before they lost it and started to chase them all over the palace.
But they had soon tiered and went to the sitting room to think and discuss this development.
"Frigga, what do you see of our grandson?" Sariana asked and waited patiently for the answer, Frigga sighed and looked out the window that they were standing next to, the silence stretched on for what seemed like hours but in reality was only a few minutes.
"All I see is that after Harry gets through to his father, do not ask me how because there are various ways that Harry can use, the reunion with his mother will have to take place either here or in the Veela city Veelaron. Also it will not only be his mother he will be angry with, but our grandson has enough restraint to not start anything on Midguard that could potentially destroy it, I do not know why but he is fond of it." Frigga responded breaking the silence that had turned anxious after Sariana had to wait a minute.
At the answer to her question Sariana's eyes widened at the implication that Frigga had made, she knew that Frigga was rarely wrong about what she saw and the things that she was wrong about were usually small and insignificant and could not harm her Kingdom or her family.
"Is he really that angry?" Sariana asked, and then said "From what our husbands said before we lost it, he hardly ever got angry with them, no matter what they did."
"No it will be more like his mother will trigger his temper, when he's already angry at his father for forcing him out of seclusion." Frigga stated worriedly.
Both of the Queens lapsed into silence again, one not knowing what to say after the statement the other made and the other not expecting a reply at all.
Location Unknown, Antarctica
In front of a cave found in a valley completely covered in white located in Antarctica six people wrapped to the nines in warm clothing, with warming charms layered thick on each article of clothing, the only thing you could make of them where their eyes. They all knew and trusted each other, they were all friends from different social circles, each of them had eyes the colour of a different jewel the only jewel colour missing was emerald green.
"Where is he?" asked one of the six, the voice sounded like a female.
"He probably couldn't make it for some reason, but if it was important and it affected what we swore to guard he would tell us." Responded another of the six whose voice was distinctly male.
A pair of turquoise blue eyes looked to the sky, they stared at the sky for a minute half of the owner's attention on the meeting the other half questioning the hand that Fate had dealt them all.
Every member of the six present were all immortal including their absent emerald eyed brother, biologically they were not related but they considered each other brothers and sisters, it was one of the many ways that kept them from doing something stupid. In total when they were all present their number was seven, before each member of the seven were born they had been mortal because the biggest threat to what each of them had sworn to protect had been mortal, but times had evolved and the biggest threat was now immortal power hungry beings, and each of them had not been amused one bit when they had found out that piece of information.
Lady Alseroen pushed a button so that the intercom would activate, she had hooked up a mic a little before the chapter had ended"I would like it if people would guess who that was that sprouted off that prophecy about Harry, if you get answer right and I have a poll on this story your vote will count as if you had voted twice, so please guess away you also have to guess who's mother she is and think about this saying as your guessing 'Appearances can, and usually are deceiving'. Have fun faithful readers and I apologise about me keeping on taking down chapters and the like but this is my first story and I have standards and I would like that this story reaches them. I'll update tomorrow hopefully, goodnight."
