I had long heard that the Tessaract was supposed to be used for the creation of a portal which the alien forces would use to invade Earth.

I had even an inkling of its true nature despite its varying descriptions. According to SHIELD, it was a source of near infinite energy while the books of Kamar Taj described it to be the strongest spatial attribute artefact.

But as I saw the blue pillar of light emerging from the machine containing the Tessaract creating a portal about a freaking kilometre in diameter with an alien spaceship of nearly unimaginable proportions on the other side, I realised just what was the Tessaract.

Both descriptions of the Tessaract were true. Because it would have been impossible for a spatial artefact to create a such a huge portal which could connect to a place fucking light years away without a near infinite amount of energy.

Soon after the portal opened, several Chitauri came out of it on their hoverboards, ready to invade earth and conquer it for their anonymous master.

But what welcomed the Chitauri as soon as they entered Earth was Ms. Ororo’s lightning bolts and Mr. Stark's laser beams who had by now defeated every single Chitauri still remaining on the spaceship.

I too flew near the portal and started shooting lightning bolts myself to finish the Chitauri before they could fly for even a single second in the Earth’s atmosphere.

“So, in the end, despite our greatest efforts, it has started.” Mr. Stark said with a sigh filled with regret as he continued shooting down the Chitauri.

“Since it has come to this, all we need to do is to do our very best. We have not lost yet. The situation is still salvageable.” Ms. Ororo said in an optimistic tone as she created a blizzard right underneath the portal.

“You are right, Ms. Ororo. There is no way these Chitauri can win.” I said in a confident tone, assured that the Chitauri couldn't win over us.

After all, this portal was being maintained only by the Tessaract. We just needed to retrieve the Tessaract which I could do easily once I got a respite from this continuous swarm of Chitauri.

“You bastard! What have you done?” Thor said furiously as he threw his hammer at the alien telekinetic.

“I only did what should have been done to this pathetic little planet. Conquer it!” The alien telekinetic said arrogantly as it easily dodged the hammer.

“I don't think so.” Loki's voice suddenly sounded as he appeared behind the alien and launched two energy blades at it using his twin daggers.

If you spot this story on Amazon, know that it has been stolen. Report the violation.

The alien tried to dodge the sneak attack but was still grazed by one of the energy blades, causing blue blood to drip from its wound.

“You fool! A mere puppet actually dares? It was because of your foolishness that I had to come to this uncivilized planet.” The alien telekinetic cursed at Loki, calling him a mere puppet.

“Then watch this puppet sever you to pieces!” Loki said furiously, a true emotion appearing on his face for the first time.

“We will take care of this bastard. You all focus on the Chitauri.” Thor shouted to us.

“Thank you!” I replied before I returned to focus on the literal swarm of Chitauri coming out of the portal.

Despite the continuous firing from the three of us, the Chitauri were just too numerous. In the end, a few of them slipped past us whom we could not even attempt to catch because of a far more number of Chitauri coming out of the portal.

“Ha ha ha! Soon this city will fall to us.” The alien telekinetic said with a laugh as he saw Chitauri finally entering the city.

“I don't think so.” I replied with a smile.

As soon as the Chitauri entered the city, a laser beam hit a few of them from the streets. Some of the Chitauri started colliding with each other out of nowhere.

To dodge these sudden phenomena, some Chitauri flew downwards towards the streets but an ice beam suddenly hit them, turning them into a block of ice.

A blue figure in a black suit appeared on a skyscraper near where the majority of the Chitauri were. Then, a red glowing beast suddenly appeared next to the blue figure. It then turned into a streak of red lightning which moved between the Chitauri. When it returned next to the blue figure, all the Chitauri were already fried.

“So, what are your thoughts now?” I said to the alien telekinetic. Honestly, if I was not busy shooting these damn Chitauri, I would have shown this arrogant alien its rightful place.

“Hmph! It's nothing. You have not seen our true power yet.” The alien telekinetic replied as it blocked another one of Loki's sneak attacks with a Chitauri corpse.

As if to prove his words, a giant fish shaped spaceship emerged from the portal.

I created a red lightning spear so as to finish it in one strike when Mr. Stark suddenly spoke.

“Wait! Albion, can you finish this big fish a little far away? Please spare my Stark Tower. It is one of my dream projects.” Mr. Stark said pleadingly.

“If you say so.” I cancelled the red lightning spear and instead shot a normal bolt of red lightning at the giant fish spaceship. It's a bit of a mouthful. Let's call it a Leviathan for now.

Boom!

The red lightning bolt caused a small explosion as it hit the Leviathan’s backside. The Leviathan, in response moved towards me as if to take revenge.

Taking advantage of its attention towards me, I flew downwards with the Leviathan right at my tail.

Seeking a rather spacious area so as to not damage the buildings, I led the Leviathan to the nearby crossroads.

Once I had the Leviathan in position, I created a spear of red lightning and threw it directly at its head.

Boom!

The red lightning spear pierced right through the Leviathan, causing it to explode in flames. It was obvious from the damage that there were no survivors.

“A little help here, Albion!” Mr. Stark suddenly said through the receiver.

I looked upward to see that Mr. Stark was descending downward with another Leviathan right at his heels.

Grr!

I was about to fly to help Mr. Stark when I saw a lone bike heading right towards us.

On the bike was a person I was quite familiar with, Dr. Banner!
