Still Ivy.
"Me?" repeated Thor.
"Last year earth had a visitor from another planet who had a grudge match that leveled a small town," said Director Fury. "We learned that not only are we not alone, but we are hopelessly, hilariously, out-gunned."
"My people want nothing but peace with your planet."
"But you're not the only people out there, are you? And, you're not the only threat. The world's filling up with people who can't be matched, they can't be controlled."
I decided now would be a good time to make an exit and headed toward the door.
"And what's the whole alternate dimension thing with Romanoff's clone there?" asked Mr. Stark. "You actually believed it?"
Every eye in the room turned to me.
"I am not Agent Romanoff's clone," I said. "How's your new arc reactor, Mr. Stark? Palladium in the chest isn't much fun, is it?"
His eyes widened. "How did you know about that?"
"I come from an alternate universe where there was a movie about it."
"Was it any good?"
Somehow, I wasn't surprised that how good the movie about him was took priority in his mind over the whole there's-a-movie-about-me-in-an-alternate-universe thing. "Yeah." Some of my friends disliked it, but I didn't think it was so bad. My opinion, admittedly, is probably biased because of Black Widow. "The one about you starting out as Iron Man was more interesting, I thought."
"Is this… normal?" asked Cap. "Alternate universes?"
"No," said Black Widow. "First we've heard of it was about twenty four hours ago."
"And I only figured it out a few hours before you did," I replied.
This wasn't good. I couldn't back out of the room without people noticing now. Which meant that I would get caught up in the explosion. But I couldn't tell them.
And then the computer made a little beeping sound.
"Located the Tesseract?" asked Black Widow.
"I can get us there faster," said Mr. Stark.
"The Tesseract belongs on Asgard," said Thor. "No human is a match for it."
Stark turned to leave. Cap stepped in front of him.
"You're not going alone!"
"You going to stop me?"
"Put on the suit, let's find out."
An expression of shock crossed Dr. Banner's face as he looked at the computer screen.
I couldn't take it anymore and made a break for the door.
And that was the floor dropped out from under us, and I was falling.
