Tony Stark’s POV

As I finally managed to get my bearings, I could see that I was not in in the lab but rather in some engine room. The explosion must have thrown me out.

“You alright, Stark?” Captain’s voice came from beside me as I realised that he was also here.

“I am alright. But what was that explosion? The last message on Fury’s communicator said that there was some sort of alien spaceship.” I said, remembering the report just before the explosion.

“Let's get out of here first. Time has come for you to don your armour.” Captain said as he started moving out.

“Aye, aye, Captain!” I said as I started following him.

As I finally entered a hallway with a window, I could see the culprit behind the explosion. It was obviously a spaceship, looking just like one from a science fiction movie. However, I could not see any movement from it at this moment.

How did it even get here? Hadn’t that Goldilocks, Thor said that Asgard had barricaded the space pathways leading to Earth?

“Stark!” Fury’s call suddenly came on the receiver on my right ear.

“What’s the situation, Fury?” I questioned.

“One of the engines have been shot. I need you to go and repair it immediately as we are not able to do it at this moment.” Fury ordered me.

“What about that giant alien spaceship in the sky right beside us? What are your plans regarding it?” I asked about the elephant in the room or should I say the sky.

“Our fighter jets are getting ready to attack it. You don't need to worry about it for now. Focus on what I have asked of you! We will deal with the rest.” Fury assured me that he will handle the spaceship and cut the call.

“Captain, you go to the damaged engine. Your help will be required. I will meet you there directly.” I said to the Captain.

“If you say so.” Captain said and separated from me, moving towards the damaged engine.

I, on the other hand, moved to where my beloved armour had been stored and donned it, ready to get to the work.

But it seems that the fate had other plans.

“Uh Oh!” I said as I saw several humanoid aliens covered in armour, emerging from the spaceship in what seemed to be some sort of hoverboard.

“What to do now, Fury?” I asked Fury as I contacted him.

“Secure the area around the damaged engine and try to repair it as soon as possible. I will send Storm to fend off the aliens.” Fury replied.

“Hope it will be enough.” I said as I moved towards the damaged engine, hoping that we would be powerful enough to defend against this unknown force.

Ororo Munroe’s POV

“Heeyah!” Logan shouted as he and I removed a large machine part, allowing Agent Natasha to remove her leg from under it.

After the explosion, only I, Logan, Agent Natasha and Dr. Banner were left in the lab. However, one of the machines in the lab had unfortunately fallen on one of Agent Natasha’s legs, rendering her immobile till now.

“You alright, Bruce?” Agent Natasha asked Dr. Banner as soon as she stood up.

“He is angry but I am managing somehow.” Dr. Banner replied with his hands on his head.

“Calm down, Bruce! Control yourself!” Agent Natasha said, trying to soothe Dr. Banner.

“Agent Natasha, what's the situation?” Director Fury called and asked.

“I am still in the lab with Dr. Banner, Wolverine and Storm.” Agent Natasha answered.

“How is Dr. Banner?” Director Fury asked about Dr. Banner's condition and if he was still in control.

“He is managing himself somehow.” Agent Natasha replied.

“Good! Stay in the lab with everyone and protect the Tessaract.” Director Fury ordered and cut the call.

“Storm!” As soon as Agent Natasha's call ended, Director Fury contacted me.

“What is it, Director?” I asked.

“We are being attacked. Your presence is required to combat the attackers in the skies.” Director Fury said, asking for my help in defending the Helicarrier.

“I am coming.”

********************************

This was not what I had in my mind when Director Fury had told me to engage in airborne combat as I saw alien soldiers coming towards the Helicarrier on hoverboards.

However, I understood that I would have to use my full power in order to defend against the alien soldiers. Fortunately, my surroundings were perfect to use my full power.

With but a thought on my part, the clouds in the nearby skies started moving and concentrated above the Helicarrier.

As the clouds swirled, they grew darker and darker until lightning started crackling out of them. By the time the alien soldiers came near the Helicarrier, there was practically a thunderstorm growing above it.

I used the thunderstorm to launch thunderbolts in quick succession at the alien soldiers, finishing anyone who was hit by them.

Yet it seemed as if the alien soldiers were emotionless as the thunderbolts raining at them didn't make them even change the direction their hoverboards were moving a single bit.

By now, the fighter jets were also in the air, launching missiles at the alien soldiers as well as the alien spaceship. However, it seems that the spaceship was covered by some sort of barrier as it was not affected by the missiles.

As the battle continued, a few soldiers managed to enter the Helicarrier despite my best efforts simply because of how many they were.

“Don't worry about the soldiers who enter the Helicarrier. Hawkeye is leading a team to hunt them down. Focus on the battle.” Director Fury called to tell me not to worry about the intruders.

Soon after, I noticed a unique alien coming out of the spaceship. I like the alien soldiers who wore armour, he wore black robes along with a black faceless metallic mask on his face, making it impossible to see any of his physical features. Moreover, he had a squad of alien soldiers moving along with him.

Finding him to be someone of importance, I launched a barrage of thunderbolts at him. But to my surprise, the alien flicked his hand causing a nearby soldier to move between the thunderbolt and him, this blocking it.

Was that telekinesis? At least, it looked like that to me.

I continued to launch thunderbolts at him but the alien telekinetic blocked them each time ruthlessly using his soldiers as shields. This continued until he reached a particular part of the Helicarrier where the lab was!

“An alien telekinetic is moving towards the lab.” I quickly message Director Fury through the receiver.

I hoped that everyone could fend off that alien telekinetic until I could help them because I could not move from this position unless I defeated every single one of these alien soldiers.

Logan's POV

“It's alright, Bruce. The situation is under control.” Agent Natasha sad as she continued to soothe Dr. Banner.

Honestly, I was quite restless, what with me getting security work a while there was a big battle going outside. Moreover, I had to watch Agent Natasha get lovey-dovey with Dr. Banner. Unfortunately, I was required in case the doctor went green.

“Agent Natasha, an alien telekinetic is removing towards the lab. Be prepared!” Director Fury said through the receiver, shocking all of us.

Crack!

As if on cue, cracks started appearing on the lab’s wall as if they had been hammered with a great force.

Smash!

The wall finally broke and a black masked alien entered the lab.

“Where is the staff?” A robotic voice which came from the alien, demanded.
