A/N: This is a original mini-comic called With Friends like these and I mixed it with Hulk and the agents of SMASH episode: Tales of Hercules I felt like this would be kinda funny to mix mash two different stories together.

Now I went off Character with Rex but if you read the story or watch the tv show on Disney plus you can understand why.


Location Unknown...

We see there was marble statues and fire braziers and Greek statues of Athena and a Greek Discus thrower but the door behind it exploded out as a man in a Cloak walks through the hole unchallenged and unopposed. He seems to be searching for something as he had picked up a tarp covering something and it was a Golden shield before he smiled and put the tarp over it and picked it up.

Thief?: Oh, Hercules... You're arrogance will be the downfall of Olympus and the world of Men!

As got what he came for he turns around and creates a portal laughing as he enters it.


Meanwhile, Avengers Mansion

While it was a nice and sunny day and on a Tuesday and Game Night! Thanks to everyone there suggesting game night we see in the Lounge, Clint Barton or known as Hawkeye, Janet Van Dyne or know as Wasp, T'Challa, Prince of Wakanda A.K.A Black Panther, Thor Odinson Norse or Asgardian God of Thunder, Alex Rex Caden and his Ai Partner both participate and when together protecting the innocent and fighting against evil they become Generator Rex. They were all currently playing Texas Hold'em as Clint had a big smile and plays his cards down.

Clint: Ladies over bullets. Read 'em and weep suckers! Hawkeye wins, Black Panther, Thor, Generator Rex, and Wasp Lose.

Rex and Generator groan as they put their terrible cards down in dismay and Rex slammed his head on the table in despair and Wasp was in equal dismay as was Thor while Black Panther just stared at his cards.

Janet: Again?!

Clint: Again.

As Clint look smug as the front mansion doorbell rang as Rex gets up to go see who it is.

Rex: I'll get it.

Thor: Nay, friend Rex. Methinks I had better get that.

Rex sits back down as Thor gets up to answer the door as Rex looks at the game table as he looks at the cards.

Thor: This game confounds me to the point that Hawkeye will win a portion of Asgard by the time we are done...

T'Challa: As well as Wakanda.

Rex: Should've went with Video Games for game night.

As Thor left the lounge area we are then outside the door as we see a broad body Shadow covering the door as Thor opens it to see who it is.

Thor: Who is... YOU?!

Just then a bare fist hits Thor sending him flying across the floor into the foyer as he looks up to see a Muscular Man with hairy body and wearing a green and gold tint skirt with one green and gold strap with a belt of ornament golden lion and leather Scandal's, brown hair and brown eyes and full grown beard around his chin as he introduces himself to Thor.

Muscular Man?: Yes... me... HERCULES!

The Greek Immortal Demi-God of Mount Olympus. The man who did the 12 labors. He tamed the Nemean Lion, slayed the Lernean Hydra, captured the Erymanthian Boar, hunted the Ceryneian Hind, killed the Man-eating Birds of Lake Stymphalus, cleaned the thousand-cattle stables of King Augeas, defeated the Cretan Bull and the Man-Eating Mares of King Diomedes, took the Golden Girdle from the Amazons, stole Geryon's Red Cattle, and retrieved Hera's Golden Apples, The twelfth and final labor was to capture and bring back Cerberus from Hades.

And he was Currently standing in the foyer continuously fed his ego.

Hercules: The Prince of Power! The Scion of Olympus! The—

He didn't get the chance to say more as Rex Double Kicked Hercules in the face away from Thor as he slides across the floor and he gets back up and rubs his face as he stares Black Panther, Hawkeye, Wasp, and Generator Rex as they protect Thor.

Rex: The Prince that was about to learn to never mess with an Avenger.

Wasp: Or the guy that is about to get zapped in the face in about two seconds.

As Wasp prepares her bio stingers and Hawkeye draws his bow and Panther extends his claws out.

Hawkeye: You heard them, back away from the Thunder God, Clash of Titans.

Black Panther: (Threating)Slowly.

Thor: Wait! Stay thine hand, Archer. As it so happens, this visitor I also call friend. Allow me to introduce... Hercules.

This got everyone attention as they stare At Hercules in shock.

Rex: Hercules? As in Hercules?The Hercules?!

Generator: As in The Hero of Greece? As in The man who did the Twelve labors?

Hawkeye: As in the Greek Mythology guy?

Wasp: As in the guy who looks pretty darn good in a skirt...

As Jan stares at Hercules with an eyebrow raised as Rex turns his head at Jan in mild jealousy when she said that and was currently staring at him.

Hercules: Yes, calm yourselves, mortals. This is merely the way great immortals such as Thor and I greet each other after long absences... with the gift of battle.

Hercules explained, his expression still bright and beaming.

Hercules: When was the last time, thunderer? Paris... during the Second World War, was it not?

Thor: Aye, it was. But these are different times now, as such we immortals must set better examples for those who deem us 'gods' do we understand each other, old friend?

He asked, offering Hercules his hand out of mutual respect. Arching a brow, the Greco-strongman accepted it.

Hercules: Oh, we understand each other.

He replied, leaning forward and looking Thor straight in the eye.

Hercules: I understand you have been living among mortals for too long. You gave grown soft. Thankfully, Hercules is here to remind you of who you are.

His words took everyone by surprise, Thor especially.

Hawkeye: Oh brother, this guy doesn't get it.

Rex: Looks like he's willing to do anything to get him to fight.

Black Panther: Thankfully, Thor does not seem to be obliging his foolishness.

Black Panther added. But at that moment, Thor frowned as Mjolnir crackled with electricity.

Thor: Thou dare call yon Odinson soft?!

Thor roared, grabbing Hercules' hand and throwing him across the room, slamming the demigod into a decorative pillar.

Black Panther: Perhaps I have spoken too soon.

Black Panther mused to his chagrin.

Hawkeye: 'Perhaps'?!

As their fight takes them outside as Thor was thrown out of the Mansion and outside and Hercules laughed at the Asgardian.

Hercules: Is that all Asgard's favorite son has to offer?

Thor had enough of this as Hercules walked toward him before he heard Thunder and looks up, the sky once sunny and clear now Thunder filled the sky as dark storm clouds formed, Mjolnir glowing blue as it was now trapped in Thor's tight grip.

Thor: If it is the true might of the god of thunder that you seek... then that is what you shall have!

Thor roared as he slammed his Hamner at Hercules and the pavement was made into a new road but he clenched his jaw and picked himself up.

Hercules: Well, it's about time!

He said with a toothy grin, in his open hand he summon his golden mace into his grip.

Thor: HAVE AT THEE!

Thor shouted as he charged Hercules, Olympian and Asgardian colliding in a brilliant display of power that nearly bowled the Avengers over.

Rex: Someone's gotta put a stop to them before they turn the mansion into a parking lot.

Wasp: But who? And how?

Wasp urgently asked her teammates. Hawkeye already had a solution.

Hawkeye: Easy.

he answered, withdrawing his ID card.

Hawkeye: Make a call to someone who can.

He said simply, putting out a call to their resident powerhouse friend. Thor and Herclues traded blows, each one capable of shattering buildings, as they dueled one another with heated looks of eager anticipation of overcoming the other.

Thor: Thou cannot match my furious lightning, demigod!

Thor snapped as Mjolnir collided with Hercules' mace.

Hercules: Your strength pales in comparison to the might of an Olympian, thunderer!

He retorted with a gleam in his eye, easily holding his ground as Thor pressed in, both fighting to overhwelm the other. Their battle was suddenly interrupted when a pair of green hands grasped the two gods from by the neck and hoisted them off the ground. Stopped so abruptly, the two barely had an opportunity to register what was happening as they stared into the snarling visage of this third party.

Hulk: Hmph. Puny gods.

Hulk grumbled and Hercules was shocked by his appearance.

Hercules: Zounds! A hairless troll!

Thor: Nay, he is the Hulk, a friend... believe that if you may...

Hulk: Enough!

Hulk ordered as he threw the two into the ground.

Hulk: And people call me a menace. Just look at the place.

He growled, gesturing to the wrecked front entrance and floors and walls in the hall as a result of their combat. The fog of violence clearing from their heads, both Hercules and Thor took a moment to recognize the consequences of their actions.

Thor: Aye, it would appear we have made a mess of things.

Hawkeye: Among other things.

Hawkeye remarked, wiping dust off his costume.

Thor: We must end this contest, Hercules, before the Avengers are left homeless because of us.

Thor determined as they picked themselves up.

Hercules: Alright, we'll call it a draw.

Hercules decided. Thor's eyes widened in disbelief.

Thor: A draw? Hardly! I had you vexed!

Hercules: But you-

Just then the green Goliath stopped the two as he stomped on the ground forcing them to look Hulk who was not happy.

Hulk: Don't.

Hulk growled, shooting them both a withering look that definitively forced the two to back down.

Rex: I'm glad that we stopped the mansion from being destroyed but was there a reason for your visit, Herc? Can I call you Herc?

Hercules: You may.

Rex: I mean why are you here? Was it just to come and fight Thor and ruin our front lawn?

Rex questioned as Hercules paused to ponder his statement as his mace vanished in a shimmer of gold.

Hercules: Ah yes, the purpose of my visit!

He recalled with a snap of his fingers. His expression quite suddenly fell, the mood shift almost tangible.

Hercules: I bring ill news, thunderer. Someone has stolen something from my Vault and I have need of your help.

Thor: My help?

Hercules: Yes. I would normally do it myself but uh, Olympus has tasked me to have a few companions to help in my search for a shield.

Rex: You got threatened by the gods of Olympus for a shield? Why weren't you there guarding it?

Hercules: Would you believe that Zeus said that I take situations not seriously and do them half heartedly as I have changed then who I was before. I was celebrating my victory of defending Olympus and regaling my tales to all the people of Olympus when Pluto snuck in and stole that shield from me.

Hawkeye: Pluto?

Wasp: You mean Pluto that's not a planet?

Generator: More like 'Hades' the King of the Underworld.

Hercules was shocked to see Generator physical appearance from Rex chest as it seemingly knowing of the Underworld.

Hercules: By Zeus? What is this?

Thor: This is Rex's machine, friend Generator. His insights to technology and explaining mythology and mortal 'science' is helpful at times. Plus with Rex they become a Warrior the like of which I have never seen.

Hercules: Warrior huh? Well, I'm sure a new hero such as yourself can push me around is certainly interesting. Anyway back to how amazing my story was.

Rex: (Whispers to Wasp) His Ego is almost the same size as Tony.

Jan smirks as Herc hears that and raises an eyebrow before ignoring Rex.

Hercules: I'll tell you everything I know on our way to Olympus.

Hawkeye: Olympus?


In Europe, Over Mountains, Somewhere in Greece

We see they have used the Quinjet to get to Olympus as Hercules continues his deeds he did when he was a mortal and we see the Avengers, Hulk, Hawkeye, Rex, Black Panther, Wasp, and Thor as they tagged along to se Olympus, home of the Greek Gods.

Hercules: —So when I was just a cut off that Lernean Hydra head two more grew back so I cut its head off some more and—

Most of the others were already sick of Hercules talk... for three hours. It was clear Herc was in love with himself as Rex was in the pilot seat and next to him was Thor as he looked ahead.

Rex: That man can Talk about himself for hours. How is he your friend?

Thor: Don't be easy to dissuade him. Hercules and I have fought with and against each each other for a long time. We have battles and for Hercules to ask for help is... important.

Rex: Is this about what happened between you and your problem with getting into Asgard?

Thor didn't look but it was partly if that since he couldn't summon his portals anymore and Hercules was in trouble from Olympus. He feels for his Olympian friend who is currently entertaining, his team while Hulk was simply annoyed with Hercules.

Hercules: So, Hulk? Are you up for a game? How about we Arm Wrestle to prove who is strongest?

Hulk: No.

Hulk said so already annoyed with him Hercules would have pressed him to have a competition of strength as he looked back and saw something that caught his attention.

Hercules: Ahh! Here we are, maintain corse through these mountains

We see Rex maintaining corse before some sort of portal opens before them and Rex flys into it.


Wormhole

Then the entire ship shakes as Hercules laughs while all of the Avengers are being thrown around in their seats while Hulk was thrown around the ship breaking some very important things and growling at his situation.

Hercules: Haha! Here it comes!

Rex: Here what comes?!

Hercules: The Best Part!

Herc was having the time of his life as the rest scream in terror for what was about to happen as a bright light consumed them.


Mount Olympus

After experiencing the most dangerous thing that has happened to them they were surprised to see Olympus a very beautiful and very thriving city it looked something out of Greek Mythology a city in the clouds atop a mountain.

Rex: Woah...

Hercules: See... the best part.

Wasp: So beautiful.

As their stares of awe stopped when something hit them in the rooftop.

Rex: What was..?

As the footsteps up top goes to the front window and screeches at them.

Rex: GYAH! What is that?!

Hercules: Ahhhh. Harpies. Sent by Pluto.

Herc said nonchalant as if he isn't bothered by it. The Harpies were green scaley monsters that seem attacked their ship as it started to rip the engines.

Rex: I just fixed the Engine! Everyone get to the Avenge-Cycles! I'll keep this bird in the air for as long I can as soon as we get close enough! I'll open the doors and everyone leaves!

Hercules: Ha! Immortals like us don't run from a fight.

Thor: But you forget that these are mortals. We shall do what Rex says.

Hercules: Since when do you run from a fight?

Before Thor could answer a explosion ensued from behind the Quinjet and caused them to start falling.

Rex: Uh... everyone clear out!

Rex pressed a button and we see the Avenge-Cycles were out in the middle of the ship and outside in the air we see Hawkeye and Black Panther was riding them, Wasp shrinks down and flies as did Thor, Hulk jumps and takes down a few harpies as they are crushed into the ground and was in front of the tree. Hercules just jumps and with gold club after ready and dispatch a few Bird-Beasts and lands on the ground with one knee.

Hercules: Olympus! Your favorite son has returned!

Rex kept it up for as long as he could as he then proceeded to press one more button and it was on autopilot and Rex jumps out of the ship and it crashed into the Mountains as Rex was free falling from the Sky but then a harpy tried to kill him with its sharp claws as Rex sees a Spire coming right at him and switches the scaley Harpy around with a few punches and the it was then impaled before disappearing in some form of ash and Rex falls on the roof and off the side as he tries to get into flight mode but falls into a rooftop and breaks it.


In a bathhouse room

As Rex falls through a room it was a bathhouse of sorts as the ladies there threw flower petals there but Rex sudden burst through the roof appearance scared them and ran away.

Rex: Ow...

Generator: Rex! You alright?!

Rex: Yeah...

As Rex gets up and staggering a bit and got his second wind he looks up to see a female woman burst out of the water naked as she was enjoying her warm and steamy bath as the her hair blocked her chest and the water and steam shrouded her lower parts of the female body.

Rex was in awe of this beautiful blonde haired woman who looked a bit older than him possibly in her thirties but otherwise beautiful, her hips, her lips, her toned stomach and her shapely rounded legs, blue eyes, everything about her could only be imagined as a Goddess as she was shocked to see Rex as he immediately turned around bashful and sees a window and runs towards it and opens it before apologizes about what happened.

Rex: Sorry! I'm new! And sorry about the Roof! And I'm not a pervert! I swear! FLIGHT MODE!

Rex jumps out and a blue light is seen and he went into flight mode to help his friends. As the Blonde lady walks by the window and sees him flying just stares at him in confusion before smiling at him.

Blonde Lady: Hmm... well aren't you interesting.

As there was a mischievous twinkle in her eye as she bit her lower lip.


Outside of Olympus

We see the bird-beast monsters called Harpy's attacking the city gates but Hulk, Thor, and Hercules fight them with their weapons as it was lightning attack the Harpy to which they were shocked and disappeared in smoke.

Hercules having a blast as he runs up to a few bird-beasts and clobbers them with his club. Hulk was being Hulk as he grabbed a few beasts by its leg and thrown it towards a few more monsters.

Black Panther in his Avenge Cycle throws his Vibranium Daggers and stabbed a few of those bird beasts to death and one landed on the cycle and was preparing to slash him but he simply looks behind it and jumps off and it slams into another bird beast and hits the ground causing an explosion. Meanwhile Hawkeye on his Avenge-cycle grabs three arrows and puts them on his Bow and fires all three equally defeating them.

Wasp still flying in the air fires her bio stingers at a few monsters before one tries to eat her and Generator Rex in Flight Mode comes in at the last moment as a few of its bird beasts teeth is missing.

Rex: Are you ok?

Wasp: Thanks to you. Where are they coming from?!

Rex: I'm guessing from there.

As Rex points out to a tree in front of Olympus as we see a man in robes but unknown to most but Herc as he knows who he is.

Hercules: PLUTO!

Pluto using his powers to open a portal from the tree.

Pluto: Go! My Harpies while I hold open the portal. Lay waste to the home of gods and any being in your way!

The Harpies obviously charge out of the portal as the Avengers and Hercules have arrived to stop him.

Thor: Avengers, Assemble!

As the hero's charge in and fight the Harpies with their respective weapons.

Hawkeye: What's the deal with Gloomy-Gus here?

Hercules: Every few hundred years, he comes banging on Olympus's gates. The sounds of our Revelry on Olympus upset him.

Hercules explained as she flys up to him.

Wasp: So he's a big party-pooper, huh? We got one too.

As Wasp looks at Hulk as he growls in anger before smashing the harpy to the ground with his fist. Before she looks terrified a bit.

Wasp: Only a bit bigger and scarier.

Hulk: Quit talking! Get to SMASHING!

As he demonstrated his strength as he smashed the ground and rocks fly up and hit the Harpies in the air.

Hercules: Love and War go hand in hand! After all, who doesn't love to fight?

As Herc then used his Gold Club and hits a few Harpies before looking up to Pluto in his dark Robed self.

Hercules: Perhaps you, Pluto, who love's nothing at all. I would ask you to return what you have stolen from me.

Pluto: Very well...

Pluto removes his cloak and we see a golden shield but this time we see it much clear as it had a gold surface and at its center of the shield we see a monster with sharp teeth, jewel eyes and a hideous face with snakes around its head.

Pluto: Here's what your looking for!

Hercules was horrified as he ducks out of the way and averted his gaze as the shield then blasted out some form of magic as it hits Hulk in the back as he roared in pain.

Rex: HULK!!!

As Rex calls out Hulk as his green skin turn into granite before he was completely turned to stone as all the avengers were shocked to see Hulk defeated.

Hawkeye: Alright, Pluto what did you do?!

Hawkeye said as Wasp, and Black Panther stand by him preparing to fight.

Pluto: I showed him the last Face he'll ever see.

Rex: No!

As Rex was about to Charge Hercules grabs Rex and Thor and tackle them to the ground as the blast hits Wasp, Hawkeye, and Black Panther.

Thor: Have you lost your Senses?!

Hercules: Avery your gaze, my friends!

Rex: You ain't my friend!

Rex immediately got out of Hercules hold on him and charged to see what had happened as Panther, Hawkeye, and Wasp turn to stone the same as Hulk. Hawkeye had his bow and arrow drawn pointed at Pluto, Black Panther had his body hunched over with Vibranium daggers after ready and Wasp was in the air falling. Rex immediately caught her before she could break on the ground.

Rex: Wasp...

Rex was horrified as he sees the once flesh and blood of his friends turn to stone as Thor was also in shock and Anger.

Thor: You shall pay for your misdeeds Pluto!

Pluto simply raises his shield and Thor hitting it just caused him to fly back while Pluto stayed where he was.

Thor: Odin's beard, how?

Pluto: Minerva's Shield. It's strength as Defense remains. As well as its magic. This is just a prelude for what is to come. I shall return to the Underworld where I will gather my army and storm Olympus and the world of MAN!

As Pluto simply laughs feeling victorious returns with his Harpie Army through the portal leaving the beaten Avengers and petrified ones as well as Rex holds Jan's hard body gently as Thor and Hercules to check out Rex to see he was ok.

Thor: Rex? Are you ok—

Rex: Are they dead?

Thor: What?

Rex: Are they dead, Hercules?

Hercules: No they aren't. Their alive for now.

Thor: Then what is Pluto's plan? You made him sound like he wasn't a threat.

Hercules: He wasn't. Until now. Knowing him, he'll want to turn everyone on Olympus and on Earth into stone using Minerva's shield.

Rex: And what is Minerva's Shield?

Generator then pops out and shows an holographic image of Minerva's shield and a story about a few Greek myths.

Generator: Minerva's Shield... In Greek Mythology, It was Athena shield, she used it to help Perseus. it's power is Equal to Medusa Gorgon and her other two sisters Euryale and Stheno, The three priestess worship Athena who they vowed celibacy but Medusa was seduced by Poseidon. For breaking her vow she was turned into a monster that would make man into stone.

Hercules: Exactly my one eyed friend. That's the power of the shield. Well, at least we're ok right?

Rex: NO! No it's not ok! You made it sound like it was just a small thing to find! Now that Pluto, king of the Underworld, got what he wanted. He's more dangerous then ever and thanks to your carelessness he's going to turn innocent people to stone just like he did to our friends.

As Rex got into Hercules face as he looks at Rex, Generator, and Thor as the three didn't seem very happy with him as he relents and somewhat admits it's his fault.

Hercules: Look, my friends, perhaps it is my fault your companions have been turned into Statues. Albeit less attractive ones than I would make.

As Herc looks at Hulk angry mug of a statue. Before starring back at the three with a mirror he retrieved in his belt and looks at himself and fixes his hair.

Rex: You have a mirror in your belt?

Hercules: Of course! You don't get looks like mine without checking yourself out every so often.

As Rex looks at Thor as he wonders why he's staring at him.

Thor: What?

Rex: Nothing. Nothing... So are we just going to smash the gates of the underworld or...

Hercules: Don't worry, Rex. There are more ways into the Underworld than you can imagine. Come my friends I've had many grand adventures in the underworld that I can regale you with our journey.

Rex and Generator and Thor follow Hercules to get into the underworld as a bird then lands on Hulk's head enjoying sitting on his new stone perch.


The Netherworld

As the four arrive to the underworld quickly and quietly but Rex and Thor were immediately serious about their mission while Hercules continued his previous life adventures during his time as a mortal with Generator interested in his stories as he normally is with every new piece of information he is given.

Generator: The gods of Olympus let you live with them?

Hercules: Yeah, the immortals mourned me, so they were compelled to make me one of them!

Rex: (Whispers to Thor.) Does he ever shut up?

Thor: (Sighs.) Nay, he's like a chronicler to his own stories and I've heard this one before... repeatedly.

Rex was worried as he looks at Wasp in worry as he had pocketed her from up top.

Thor: You must be careful with her any wrong move you might break her.

Rex: I know. I don't know why I brought her with even...

Thor: Why did you bring her?

Rex: I... I don't know. She would be safer up but I just—

Hercules: Ahh, look the River Styx.

As Hercules showed them a river of sorts as there was someone there a ferryman of sorts all in black robes with his face covered and only his green skin and green eyes and lower part of mouth as there were only a few teeth there and they were only ever seen.

Rex: Who's that guy?

Hercules: Huh? Oh, him? That's Sharon, the ferry man on the river Styx. He takes souls into the Underworld. He's a bit of a stickler for rules about who he takes into the underworld, so you better let me do the talking. (To Sharon.) Sharon my good fellow!

Sharon?: My name is CHARON! For the thousandth time!

As Charon corrected everyone there as he seemed to know Hercules as he eyed the others as well and noticed Thor an Asgardian Prince, and a Mortal Rex who is accompanied by a floating AI that he knows nothing about but ignores them as he looks at Hercules annoyed with his presence.

Charon: Now be gone, Hercules. I'll have no trouble from you.

Hercules come closer as he claims he's not here to cause trouble.

Hercules: You'll have none, so long as you hive Olympus's favorite son and his companions a lift.

Charon: I will not. It is against the rules of the underworld to take a living soul down this river. And your ego would surely sink my raft.

Rex stifled a laugh as he found it funny as Thor and Herc heard it but ignored him.

Hercules: Ha ha ha! Oh Sharon, you cut-up.

Herc then slapped his back forcefully pushing him into the river and dropping a push-pole on the ferry as Thor, Rex, and Generator were shocked that Hercules actually pushed an old man as Hercules picks up the push-pole and noticed the shocking stares of the three.

Hercules: What?

Thor: What in the nine realms would possess you to do such a thing!

Rex: You just punched a defenseless old man!

Hercules: Ahh, he's tougher than he looks. Stubborn, too. Say, Rex? How are you with a push-pole?

Rex groans as he puts his hand on his helmet and shakes his head when the river starts to bubble drawing the four attentions as Charon returns and quickly punched Hercules and was sent flying and flying into Thor as he dropped the Push pole as it lands in front of Rex.

Charon: You dare assault the ferry man?

As Charon quickly walks towards Rex as he tries to defuse the situation.

Rex: Listen, I'm sorry that...

Charon didn't give him enough time to explain as he hit punched Rex pretty hard... harder than the Hulk as he gasped for air as it escaped him while kneeling on the ground as Charon grabs his pole overlooking Rex.

Generator: Rex! Rex are you ok?!

Rex: He hits harder than the Hulk... (Gasps for air) Felt like I was hit by a fright train...

Charon: You keep poor company, mortal. Now you must pay!

Rex: Wait...

Charon then proceeded to whack him with the push-pole as Wasp Statue fell out of Rex's pocket. As Rex noticed Jan frozen statue body and Charon almost stepped on her and Rex got up and pushed Charon away from her.

Rex: We didn't come here looking for a fight! We came here to save people. Pluto is trying to turn every person on earth to stone. And we're here to make sure he doesn't.

As Rex gently picks up the Wasp statue and Charon senses his heart and soul. He was telling the truth as he senses a soul within the statuette and it confirms he was telling the truth.

Charon: Very well than.

As Thor, Generator, Hercules, and Rex stare at Charon as he makes his way to the Ferry with push-pole.

Charon: Come aboard, and I'll show you the way.

As they follow him aboard Herc congratulated Rex.

Hercules: Nice work. Tiring him out was my plan, too.

Rex then elbowed Herc in the side of the rib cage as he felt that.

Rex: Oh, Shut up.


Avengers Mansion

As Ant-Man, Iron Man and Captain America return to the Mansion finding the front lawn and hall destroyed as Tony gets mad.

Iron Man: Okay! Someone is going to pay for this!

Iron Man then pulls his Acengers ID Card as he calls in to the other Avengers.

Iron Man: Avengers Assemble!

He didn't even get a signal from them as they only got was static.

Iron Man: Well, that's not good.

As the other Avengers didn't like that at all.


The Underworld

We see Thor, Rex sit on the boat Normally as Generator flies and collect data from the place only to be met by a dead soul as it tries to swipe him with a moan and it freaks out Generator as he then went inside Rex's Chest and Hercules was being... Hercules.

Hercules: Why so tense my Mortal Friend Rex?

Rex: Why am I tense? I'm in a place that I shouldn't be here. My friends have been turned to stone and we are here cleaning up your mess and Pluto will use the Shield to turn all of the people of Olympus and Earth to stone.

Thor: Calm yourself Rex. We will save them.

Hercules: You should listen to your Asgardian friend, we stop Pluto, get the shield back, turn your friends back, and have a party to celebrate in my honor of victory and you can be on your way home.

Rex: Don't you think about what would happen if you fail?

Hercules: Nope. I never fail. I like to think of everything as a ride! Oh sure, it gets bumpy and frightening at times but as long as you're on it, why not enjoy it?

Rex: Because our friends are turned into statues. You must have some friends you are concerned about.

Hercules: Of course I do I'm surrounded by many people of Olympus to serve me hand and foot. And many fair maidens to have company with to tell stories.

Rex: That doesn't sound like friends only people that are nice to you because you tell too.

Hercules: Than what do you suppose a friend is?

Rex takes out Wasp Statue and explains it to Herc.

Rex: A friend who is there to argue with you, a friend who there to support you, a friend you picks you up when you're depressed, a friend who stands up for you even when it's their neck on the line and a friend you can have fun with too and tell stories to and be a bit more open, respectful, and trusting with each other.

Charon: Sounds to me you could learn a thing or two from him, Hercules.

Hercules: (Laughs.) Not to worry. With my strength, and you two as-needed backup, Pluto will soon taste defeat.

Rex groans head down before looking up and we see land.

Charon: We're here.

Rex: Thank you. I know you are very sticky with rules and I don't have any money on me but I am grateful that you brought us here.

Charon was surprised by his kindness to him after what he has done to him as Rex, Thor, and Hercules depart the boat and head to land and stop Pluto.

Charon: Good luck to you, noble one.

And Charon departed the land and was back on the river and Thor, Generator Rex, and Hercules continued on their journey.


Quinjet, Over Europe

We see the Inside of the ship as Captain America, Ant-Man, and Iron Man was flying the ship as they followed where the QuinJet went.

Captain America: Are you sure this is where they went?

Iron Man: Yep. The Quinjet GPS system doesn't lie. It seemed to go over Greece into this area here.

As he showed Cap where the Quinjet was last located.

Iron Man: The GPS signal drops right here between these mountains.

As they follow the trail of their missing Avengers unaware what was happening we go back to the people who knows what's happening.


Underworld

After a long trek we see Thor, Rex, and Hercules on a ridge overlooking Pluto and his army, as they were a army of Monsters. Minotaurs, Lamias, Harpies all Greek Monsters that roar or cheered for Pluto, king of the Underworld.

Generator: What a party there Huh?

Rex: And there's Gloomy Gus with armor than robes on him.

As we see Pluto with Shield in hand raised before all his army grey skin, black hair, with grey eyes and no pupils as he had purple and blue tint armor on as he rallied his army of monsters.

Pluto: Soon, the surface world will be a silent cemetery. Humans will become their own tombstones.

The monster's roaring in joy but Rex, Thor, and Generator talk to one another.

Thor: We need a plan.

Rex: Yeah... That shield can't hurt us unless we look at it, right?

Hercules: Yes, but knowing Pluto, he expanded its power with dark magics. Because unless you're me, it's hard to get the whole world to look at you.

As he takes out his mirror once more and Admires it as Thor and Rex and Generator deadpanned At Hercules to be in love with himself.

Rex: How do you two know each other exactly? I don't see how you and him would be friends.

Thor: He has his... moments but he is my friend believe it or not.

Rex: That I have trouble believing.

Hercules then jumps off the ledge as Thor and Rex see him falling to fight the enemy.

Hercules: Now tell me more about this plan!

Rex: You blew our shot at making one!! (to Thor.) I'm going to kill him Thor!

Thor: Your not the only one!

Rex: Tank Mode!

Rex crosses his arms and pulls out as he was in his bulky forms as he slides down the slope firing his machine gun on his shoulder spooling it out with Energy blasts as the bulls and lamia's go down and so did the Harpies.

Thor flys in the air and used his Hammer to attack a Minotaur before slamming it down releasing an electric energy.

Thor: Hercules! You didn't allow us time to make a plan!

Hercules: Ah! Life is to short for plans!

When on the ground Hercules was fast and he used his fists to punch a Minotaur before speeding away.

Rex: So you want to spend your life as a statue!

As Rex was attacked by a Lamia as it coil its tail around him and Rex grabs the tail throws him off the side and into the River.

Rex: I'm all for fun and games but you gotta take this one a bit more seriously!

Hercules fighting off a few of the Minotaurs with his hands before throwing them off the side as well.

Hercules: Fair enough. But unless you want to turn out like that basement-dwelling sad sack, you might want to lighten up!

After Pluto heard that Insult he glares at Hercules.

Pluto: Is there no limit to your hubris, Hercules? You would face me in my own realm?

Pluto used his Magic Shield to attack Hercules but thanks to Thor tackling him the blast went to a Minotaur behind him and he turned to stone.

Rex: Thor! Watch my back! I'm going after Pluto!

Thor: Aye, Friend Rex! It shall be done!

Hercules: What do I do?

Rex: Just watch our back in case of stragglers!

Hercules: Ohh, after a taste of glory, are you?

As Hercules than grabs the Minotaur statue and uses it as a club weapon and assaults a Real Minotaur behind him.

Hercules: Thor! I'll rock, paper, scissors you for it!

Thor: I always win!

Rex: No! I need you—

Herc and Thor than leaves to fight Pluto as Rex sighed in annoyance and chased after them unaware of a cave they passed had something in it as we see three pairs of red eyes as they growl.

As Thor and Hercules fight their way to Pluto he then smiles in triumph.

Pluto: Rock always wins.

He then used the Shield of Minerva as they missed them but it was actually at a puddle where Thor arm holding Mjolnir turns to Rock and Hercules right leg turns to stone.

Rex: Thor! Hercules!

As they seem to be able to move and aren't completely statues but it didn't help their situation a bit.

Hercules: Sweet Saturn's sickle! That was my favorite leg!

Thor: (Grunts) My Arm! My hammer!

Generator: Great! Can this get any worse!

The worse then came and by was it bad. The guardian to the gates of the Underworld Cerberus Pluto's guard dog growls at them as then it throws up hellfire as they ran or limped away from it towards a ledge and Pluto jumps from a ledge and onto Cerberus and acting like a mount for Pluto.

Pluto: I'll be sure to tell your admirers exactly who failed them, before I freeze them in granite.

Hercules now looking very worried as did the rest of the group.

Hercules: Now, hold on, Pluto. Your only making things worse for yourself!

Pluto: I've had enough of your prattling! Cerberus Attack!

Cerberus then paw attacked them off the ledge as all three fall into the River Styx and Thor and Hercules were drowning and Rex quickly woke up and took notice of them as he went into a dependable mode.

Rex: (Muffled) Strength Mode!

Rex then grabbed Thor and Hercules and threw them onshore as they choked in the water before Thor noticed Rex hadn't gotten up out of the water.

Thor: Rex? Rex!

Hercules: No! Don't go in! The river is to dangerous especially in our condition!

below in the water we see dead souls see Rex and they were after him as he tried to swim but they got him and dragged him to the depths as he tried to fight only dragging him further down as everything seem to fade his oxygen levels dropped and it looked like he was done for but then he saw a stick he reaches out and grabs it it pulled him out of all the souls and muck as he reverted back to base mode.

The moment he was pulled out of the water Rex Gasped for air and took in deep breathes and looked up to his Savior. It was Charon the ferry man of the River Styx.

Rex: Charon?

Charon: Come now mortal. I shall take you and your friends to the surface.


Meanwhile

As we see Ant-Man, Iron Man, and Captain America fly into a wormhole as they hold on for dear life.

Iron Man: Now we know what happened to them!!

Captain America: It's going to pull itself apart!

Alarms rang as they went through the portal though most violently and made it through the wormhole and made it to Olympus.


The Netherworld

As they were back on the Ferry Charon explained his actions as to why he would save Rex and take him back to the surface.

Charon: I could not see such a courageous, selfless, kindest, and most Nobel warrior fall by Pluto's hand, mortal.

Rex: Thank you.

Charon: Though answer me this? I am wondering why you would save him? He's done nothing but be selfish, brutish, and his Ego would doom you all. Why?

As Rex stared at Hercules with an honest stare as he looked defeated, sullen, and broken.

Rex: I guess I took a chance him helping us because he's Thor's friend.

Charon: Hmm, if it was up to me I would've left him to his fate.

Rex: Yeah, and I guess it's a fool like me to help save a fool.

Charon was intrigued by Rex more and more he was mortal and yet he spoke with wisdom, if anything Rex is extremely tolerable then most Gods and mortals he has met in thousands of years.

Hercules: I'm such a fool...

Rex: That's what I just said...

Hercules: This is all my fault... I've doom the world. My continuously bragging, jesting and carelessness in the face of danger cost us victory!

Hercules was at his lowest point as was Thor as Rex noticed how both were at their lowest point.

Rex: Not yet.

Rex said as Hercules and Thor stare at Rex.

Generator: No offense Rex but Hercules and Thor have part of their bodies turned to stone Thors Hammer is stuck to his hand and Hercules can barely walk let alone fight.

Rex: Listen, We're not outta this yet, Thor, your the Prince of Thunder! Not a Prince of Hammer! You fought frost giants in the name of Asgard and supervillains on a daily basis on earth! Did you give up, protecting them?

Thor: Nay...

Rex: And Hercules! Did you give up when you Hunted for that boar or slew that lion?

Hercules: No...

Rex: You never gave up, even when the odds were stacked against you. People look up to you because of your deeds not because of your powers you have. But the ability to push on. Pluto is one god but there's a Thunder god and a Demi-God, a Mortal that can change his suit to whatever he wants. You both are great people and great heroes.

Hercules: Really?

Rex: Yes. Now stop being a sad sack and start living up to your hero status. We need Hercules the man that became a Demi-God for Olympus and we need the Thunderer of Asgard help if we want to save the world. Minverna shield is like a weapon right? Then every weapon has a weakness. If we find and exploit it we might be able to save the Avengers and anyone else who fell under its magic.

Charon looks At Hercules and speaks.

Charon: You. I continue to despise.

Then he looks at Rex impressed by his dedication to others.

Charon: But I admire your resolute manner and dedication to others. So I offer you insight. If the shield is faced with its own reflection. It can be destroyed, the spell broken. Your friends will be restored.

Rex then was in thought by that and just like that an idea popped in his head and looks at Hercules.

Rex: Hey, Herc you still got that mirror?

Hercules: Yes. But why?

Rex: Because I have a plan. If we can get close enough to Pluto to use it, we can bounce the shields beams right back at it.

Generator: Rex! That's genius! Minerva's shield could turn to stone!

Thor: Freeing us and our friends as well!

Hercules: A brilliant plan Rex! Give me orders, and I will follow them to the letter. I vow to remain serious and make amends for the trouble I've caused you this day. So says I the Prince of Power, the scion of Olympus, The—

Charon: For Jupiter's sake, do you ever stop talking about yourself?

As Charon looks At Hercules in annoyed look but Rex suddenly had an idea for Hercules that might work to their plan.

Rex: Actually, Hercules I was hoping you can have be yourself for the majority of the plan.

As everyone looks at Rex weird and wondering what is going through his head.


Olympus

We see the tree to the Underworld opens a portal and we see Hawkeye, Hulk, Black Panther still frozen in stone.

As then Cerberus and ontop Pluto with his army of Monsters behind him was confronted by an army of Olympus warriors ready to defend it and it's people.

Pluto: I bring news! Your Champions have fallen!

Then on cue he used Minerva's shield and frozen all of Olympus's warriors in stone as he assumed his victory of Olympus would be easy.

???: Don't flatter yourself, Pluto.

We then see Hercules, Thor and Generator Rex as they follow right behind their army as Hercules held a bolder in his hand quite easily.

Hercules: Nobody's soul is beating down the door to get into your boring realm.

Pluto was shocked to see them but notherles they are but weakened due to Minerva shield.

Pluto: Self-important braggart! I regrets not annihilating you when I had the chance.

Hercules: But you don't regret moping in a damp cave all these years? While I captivated the world with heroic deeds and rugged good looks?

Pluto glares at him as he continues to ride his dog.

Pluto: Perhaps I'll leave your head unfrozen so you can watch your beloved world fall!

Hercules: You mean, you wouldn't be doing it so I could share my harrowing tales of adventure with you for all eternity? Come on! Deep down, you admire me. I know it!

As he smiles and has a reflective white teeth that shine. Leaving Pluto confused by what happened or even it actually happened as Herc continued his bragging.

Hercules: I had you when I slew the Nemean Lion, didn't I?

Rex: Now Herc!

Hercules then throws the boulder at high speed but Minerva's shield blocked it as Pluto then gets mad.

Pluto: (Grunts) You earned my spite the day you first opened your mouth!

Rex: Sounds like a man who's jealous of success.

Thor: Aye! It seems you are jealous of Hercules feats because you can't compete with him!

Hercules: Admit it you're jealous! It's your own fault you don't have friends to party with, Plute! You need positive mental attitude!

Rex: I actually know a guy who can help you his name is Dr. Hank Pym! He's the kinda guy who deals with supervillains on a daily basis and try to get into a positive mood.

Pluto: ENOUGH!! My army! Kill them!

Pluto had enough as he then charged after Hercules and Rex, and Thor as his army soon followed.

Rex: Thor and I will be handling the army! Hercules, take care of Pluto!

Hercules: Love to!

The three jumped in different directions and handle the army of monsters pretty quickly while Hercules and Pluto punched each other so hard that Pluto fell off Cerberus and Hercules landed in front of him.

one of the Minotaur used an axe but Thor blocked it with his stone side and easily landed a blow on his face.

Rex was running around monsters thanks to Generator making his body acrobatic in base mode as most monsters hit themselves with Axes or their own fists.

Pluto gets up and sees Hercules as he charges at him and Herc slams his stone free foot to the ground and causes a fissure arise but Pluto jumps over with ease and fired his Magic shield at Hercules for which he had no offense against.

Hercules: NOOO!!!

Rex: Hercules!!!

it was to late Herc was stone as Pluto laughed in triumph.

Pluto: At last! An end to your ceaseless chatter.

Rex: You know what Hercules said was right. There are plenty on my team that did the alone thing. From what they tell me it ain't fun.

Pluto: That fool cost you your friends, and now your own life!

Rex: Well, at least he knew how to have a good time!

As Rex charged at Pluto with Hercules Mirror as Pluto at the same time raised his Shield and its magic was blasted back at it and the Shield turned to stone.

Pluto: WHAT?! The shield? Turned to stone?

Rex: Oh, Yeah! STRENGTH MODE!

Rex in his strength mode bulky body as he then punched the shield into smithereens and sent Pluto flying.

As Rex went back to base made he takes out Wasp statue hoping the spell would break and she then cracks before her body is back to flesh and not granite much to Rex's relief. Thor's arm was back to normal as he lightly tossed Mjolnir in the air.

Thor: Good to see you free old friend.

Hercules was returning to his flesh and blood self as was most of the Olympus army that turned to stone and the stone Avengers as well.

Hawkeye: Huh? What..? What happened?

Hulk looks up and notices a nest on his head and wonders what happened.

Hulk: Why do I have a nest on my head?

Rex: Wasp! Are you ok?

Wasp: Yeah...

Wasp then stretches as a few cracks are heard as she wonders why she's stiff.

Wasp: Why am I so stiff?

Hawkeye: Yeah and Where these cow and snake people come from!

As Hawkeye aimed his bow and fired a net at a lamia and aims more of his Arrows at the monsters as Hercules told them what happened.

Hercules: Pluto turned you turned you to statues, and Rex saved you. Come! Let us see the Avengers fight!

As Cerberus then bites Hercules and drags him away.

Rex: Can someone please save Hercules?

Thor: I'm on it.

Hulk: So am I.

Hulk said with glee to fight a dog as almost as big as him as he charges at the middle headed Dog.

Hulk: I got dibs on the middle one!

Thor used his hammer to attack the left head Hercules attack the right and Hulk then put his fist together and slammed the middle ones head to the ground as it fell unconscious. Hawkeye and Pather were handling a army of monsters when suddenly a Quinjet fired its weapons as we see Cap and Ant-Man in the jet, while Iron Man handled the Harpies in the air.

Iron Man: I let you guys alone to have Game night and you guys destroy part of the Mansion and then travel to a pocket dimension in the middle of Greece!

Rex: Hey! In our defense it was Hercules and Thor destroyed part of your mansion!

Pluto noted how the Avengers and Olympus Army handle his Army stands up and looks at Rex in anger.

Rex: Give up, Pluto! Your day of trying to take the world is over.

Pluto: Seeing the surface world fall was my one chance at happiness. And you ruined it!

Rex: Yeah, I tend to do that when people like you try and take over the world. Why don't you try mingling with people, who knows you might find the modern world a blast.

Cerberus then runs away as Hulk was riding it like a big horse and the three headed dog jumps around in order to buck him off as Hulk found it fun for himself.

Rex: Now I've seen everything... I giving up if I were you.

Pluto knew his taking over the world was done but he looks at Rex and threatens him.

Pluto: You've won this day, mortal. But when next I rise, it will be to drag your soul to the underworld!

Pluto then called back his army and Cerberus as they disappeared in a blink of an eye as Pluto laughs and runs into the tree portal.

Rex: When you return, the Avengers will stop you again.

Hercules then wraps up Rex and hug him as most of his spine and ribs crack before releasing Rex on the ground.

Hercules: Ha ha! You done well my my friend!

Rex: (Groans) You're welcome.

Hercules: Yes! I owe you and your companions a great debt, not only for today's victory, but for showing me the error of my ways. Thank you, Rex.

As Rex then removed his helmet and offered a handshake to Hercules as he returned it.

Rex: There's a time and place for everything, Herc. And now's there's one more thing we need to do before todays over..


Avengers Mansion

We see Hercules and Thor dust the floors with their brooms and clean up the mess they caused as Rex helped move some of the pillars and debris as to not make them feel alone in this.

Rex: Alright, after we clean this mess up we're going to go have lunch at Five Guys.

Hercules: Five Guys huh? It's a deal. In fact seeing this place I cannot help but be reminded of my fifth labor, The cleaning of the Augean stables.

Rex, Thor, and Generator all shake or groan or roll their eyes at Herc as he continues talking about himself.

Hercules: As I legendarily completed that within a day we can surely—

Thor: Hercules, my old friend?

Hercules: Yes, Thor?

Generator: Shut up!

Rex & Thor: Shut Up!


Deceased: Harpies, Minotaurs, Lamia's

A/N: So how was it?
