We soon found ourselves at Stark’s tower. In a large, open room with its own bar.

“Drink?” Tony asked, walking to the bar and pouring himself a drink of what seemed to be whiskey.

“I’ll have whiskey if you’ve got it” Minion said.

“Finally” Stark said, smirking whilst getting out a second glass “someone with taste”

“Do you have Irish cream?” I asked.

“I think so” he said “now why don’t you tell us about this ‘sworn enemy’ of yours”

“I guess you could say there is some parallels with the story of you and your brother, Thor” I said, looking at the Norse God “it all started about 400 million years ago, often called the time before time. There was a being called Mata Nui, who’s sort of like some Robot god or something, his name actually means ‘Great Spirit’, anyway, he created a race of beings called Makuta and charged them with creating new types of animals”

“That just seems a little lazy if you ask me” Stark said, passing me a glass filled with Irish cream “I mean, creating beings to do the creating for him?”

“Anyway” I said, taking a sip of the beverage “the Makuta considered themselves the brothers of Mata Nui, but no one ever thanked them for their work, it was always Mata Nui that received the praise. Until eventually one of them, named Teridax, grew dark with jealousy and hatred. Teridax is who we are up against, he is a being of shadows, with many powers. He is extremely powerful, and fiercely cunning, he can give your brother a run for his money. Even if we beat him, he chances are he has some kind of backup plan already thought up and perfected” at that point several people walked in.

“uh…” one of them, dressed in a blue suit said “did we miss something?”

“Quite a lot” Stark said “turns out, they’re from one of the worlds in the sky, and they’re after the…what was he called again?” he turned to me as he said this.

“Makuta” I supplied.

“Makuta that caused all of the planets and stuff” he said.

“And why does it concern us?” he asked.

“Because if we don’t stop him” I said “all of our worlds are at risk”

“I’m sure we can protect this world” he said

“We have 15 Toa, and we weren’t able to stop him” I said “what are 7 avengers going to do? That’s why we need your help, we already have one group of protectors on our side”

“Two” Boris corrected.

“Yeah, the Guardians don’t count yet” I said “they’re just a bunch of outer-space arseholes”

“I knew it!” Stark said.

“What?” I asked.

“Your accent” he said “British, right?”

“Correct” I said “your point?”

“No reason” he said “I just needed to be sure”

“Okay…” I said “moving on, we need your help, all of you”

“But if this ‘Makuta’ is such a big threat” a scrawny, slightly nervous man said “then wouldn’t it be better for us to stay here and protect this world”

“No” I said, the com-link on my wrist buzzed “we need to physically go after him. Speaking of which, if you head outside, you will see our method of transportation has arrived” I walked outside, followed by the medium sized group of Toa, Avengers, Dragon and Kirins to find the Jörmungandr hovering above the city.

“You have a dragon to pull that?” Thor asked.

“Where were come from” Vinyl said “there are a lot more than just dragons”

“but it’s really small compared to the ship” the scrawny man said “I mean the ship’s got to be at least a couple thousand meters long”

“3670 meters long” I said “720 meters high, with a gross tonnage of 2’250’820 tons and a maximum crew of about 70’000 personnel, give or take a couple hundred”

“So, don’t think ship” The scrawny man said “think floating town with guns”

“Pretty much” I said “but this isn’t the largest ship back on Terra, there are some cargo ships that are in the range of 4000 meters long and weigh 2 ½ million tons” Stark gave a low whistle.

“How does it stay in the air?” he asked.

“You see the rotors?” I asked, they all nodded “they work in tandem with anti-gravity generators, so it reduces the weight and keeps it aloft” I downed my drink before using my magic to send it to the bar inside the building.

“What did you just do?” Stark asked, all of my team looked at each-other before responding as one.

“Magic *shrug*”

“Very funny” stark said “but seriously, what the hell happened to the glass”

“No seriously, magic” I said “it’s what the Equestrians, that’s Autumn and Vinyl, actually call it, it’s like some sort of electromagnetic field or something, but it’s scientifically called ‘arcane energy’. Hell, they’ve even weaponised it, as for what I did with the glass, I sent it back to your bar”

“You can teleport objects?” the scrawny man asked, I teleported over.

“And ourselves” I said “if you help us, I’ll show you everything I know” ‘I have you now’ I thought.

“Well” Stark said “it’s not like we have anything better to do” eventually all of the others agreed as well and suited up before joining us on the ship, where I showed them to the hall where our other ‘recruits’ were gathered.

“Avengers” I said, showing them where the Guardians of the Galaxy were stood next to the Defenders of Berk, who were with their dragons “allow me to introduce the Guardians of the Galaxy, and the Defenders of Berk”

“You guy’s ride dragons?” Stark asked.

“They’re also Vikings” I said “so they should get along with Thor really well” the Defenders perked up at that.

“You mean Thor, as in the god of Thunder!?” Tuffnut asked, I gestured to the aforementioned thunder-god and their jaws dropped.

“That’s it” Gobber said “I’m done” he then promptly walked off

“Looks like the list of idiots just keeps getting bigger and bigger” Rocket said “first off there’s the rainbow patrol, secondly, a bunch of kids and thirdly…I don’t know, I’ve got nothing”

“At least we don’t have a talking rat” Tuffnut said.

“I am not a rat!” Rocket exclaimed

“You people are so petty” Thor said “the whole of the universe is a stake and you stand around quarrelling like Bilgesnipe” everyone looked at him in confusion.

“Uh, what?” Scar asked

“Green? Scaly? Big antlers?” Thor said “you’ve never heard of them?”

“I’ve been half way across the galaxy and back and I have seen many things” Star-Lord said “but I have never seen, or heard of anything matching that description”

“Anyone?” Thor asked, looking around.

“Right” I said “moving on, we’ll be leaving soon so if you want to come up top and watch feel free, and Thor?” the Asgardian looked at me.

“Yes?” he asked.

“Don’t get into fights with anyone” I said “unless you see a Skakdi trying to corner a female, then by all means, feel free to whack them for me”

“Skakdi?” he asked.

“Troll-like, 8 foot tall, spines running down their back and they walk around with stupid grins” I said “you understand what I mean when you see them, same goes for the rest of you” I teleported onto the top deck and leant against the railing, about 10 minutes later we left the planet and entered outer space.

*POV 3rd person: Location one of the multiple Alternate Earths*

Teridax’s ship entered Earth using a portal, Teridax and the Shadowed One were standing on the bow, surveying the surroundings.

“Is this the Human world?” The Shadowed one asked.

“Looks like it” Teridax said.

“Then why are we even sticking around?” Shadowed One asked “I seriously doubt there will be anyone to help us” at that moment a red portal opened up and a giant silver and black mechanical person flew through, followed by a purple and red mechanical person. Teridax flew out to meet them.

“Who are you and what are you doing in my way?” the silver and black robot asked.

“I am Makuta Teridax” he said “the soon-to-be ruler of the universe” the silver and black robot scoffed.

“Oh really?” he asked “because last time I checked I, Lord Galvetron, was going to be the ruler, now get out of the way before I destroy you”

“I would like to see you try” Teridax said, getting out his staff of shadows.

“What would you do to stop me?” Galvetron asked “I could destroy you just by stepping on you”

“There are 1000 ways I could destroy you right now, and 941 of them hurt” Teridax said, before unleashing a mental attack on Galvetron, stunning him, he also used this moments to pull the required information out of Galvetron’s mind, seems they were seeking the same goal. He stopped his mental attack before saying “Seems we both desire the same thing, tell you what, help me to conquer the universe and you can keep half of it” Galvetron thought for a moment.

“Very well” he said “but try and betray me, and I’ll destroy you”

“The same goes for you” Teridax said.

“Why are we listening to this worm?” Starscream asked “why not just kill him?” Teridax narrowed his eyes before sending forth a bolt of plasma, causing Starscream to cry out in pain.

“I will not be referred to like some spineless lowlife” Teridax said “you are to address me as The Makuta or Lord Teridax, understand?”

“Yes, Wo-I mean Lord Teridax” Starscream said, Teridax growled, but didn’t push the matter. He then followed the Decepticons back to their lair, followed closely by his ship. Next Chapter: Chapter 6 Estimated time remaining: 5 Hours, 60 Minutes
