dejaunhenry : Yes.
Chapter 41 -
"No," Harry said as he talked into his phone, he was standing in the corner of the room while the others stood in the center of the apartment, discussing the battle plan for the battle against the dark elves. "well it's hardly like it's my fault, is it? Well, what about Natasha? Fine, just make sure to do what I told you. No, I will send you a full report later. Yes, yes...okay. Fine, alright, talk to you later. Love you too Fury." Harry rolled his eyes as he ended the call, he walked back up to the group.
"Who were you talking to?" Thor asked.
"Fury." Harry answered.
"As in the director of Shield?" Jane blinked. "You told him what we were doing?"
"Not exactly," Harry said with a small shrug. "I gave him the bare details, all he basically knows is 'alien invasion' and 'there's a plan, don't get in the way'."
"I can't believe you told Shield!" Jane exclaimed with disbelief and a touch of anger. "Why on Earth would you do that?! The last thing we need is a bunch of suits getting in the way!"
"They're not getting in the way," Harry replied. "Fury trusts me, or at least trusts me enough to listen to me. His men will keep out of the way, their purpose is simple, evacuation. There will be people there and if I know people as well as I do, they'll be more focused on recording what is happening on their phones than they will be at escaping, at least until they actually get put in danger." Harry pointed out. Jane looked like she was about to argue but paused and considered his words before grudgingly conceding his point. "The 'suits' as you called them will be instructed to do nothing but evacuate, heck they might not even come in person and just get the local authorities to do it until they actually arrive. And that is all they're going to do."
"How can you be so sure?" Erik asked, raising an eyebrow.
"Fury knows better than to piss me off." Harry replied with Padfoot barking in agreement.
"Are you calling in any of the other Avengers?" Darcy asked in an excited voice.
"No," Harry shook his head. "Iron Man is apparently unavailable and so is the Hulk, the others are all on a joined mission to stop some idiot with codes to a nuclear bomb."
"A nuclear bomb?" Sif asked with a frown on her face.
"Basically a weapon that could kill a lot of people, and I mean a lot. There are about nine countries in total that have them, the idea is no country will dare to use their bomb because if they do then they risk another country using one of theirs against them."
"How dangerous is this weapon?"
"Think massive explosion but just much, much, a lot of much, bigger." Harry relied. "I'll give you a proper explanation another time. Alright, so we have our plan, right?" Harry asked the group.
"Pretty much," Erik nodded. "I would advise we all try and get some rest before this 'event' happens."
"Yes!" Jane agreed very quickly, very much not against taking some time to relax. She had just been to two different realms and had an ancient relic pulled out of her by a dark elf, nobody could blame her for having a few hours of sleep. "I am all for that."
"We will need to be have all of our energy for the battle." Harry agreed.
"Right, well...where are we supposed to sleep?" Loki asked as he looked around the room, unable to keep all the judging out of his voice.
"Oh yeah," Jane bit her lip. "we don't have a lot of room so you will probably have to sleep on the couch and on the floor, I can get some sleeping bags and..."
"Ahem," Harry coughed, interrupting Jane who was looking quite apologetic. "I have magic." Harry reminded her as he twirled his wand in one hand. "I can create beds for them to sleep in." He added when Ian still looked confused.
"Oh right." Ian blushed slightly, looking embarrassed at forgetting that.
"Are you staying here?" Thor asked Harry.
"Yes," Harry nodded. "if only to make sure Loki doesn't do anything bad."
"Is it so unbelievable that I can last an hour with no supervision and not try anything?" Loki asked, rolling his eyes. He was however taken slightly by surprise at the unified response of "no" that was spoken by everyone in the room.
The next day the group had gone to Greenwich Royal Navy College, Darcy and Ian began putting Erik's devices all around various points while Sif and Loki were with Jane and Erik. Loki was disguised as a boring looking man with brown hair, simply because if he was actually seen then people would be demanding his head. Sif was also on 'Loki watch', meaning it was her job to slap him on the head if he tried to escape, though Harry had made sure to discreetly put a tracking charm on Loki in case he did try to escape. Meanwhile Jane modified the settings in an attempt to gain some control over the anomalies so she could help Harry and Thor while also messing up the dark elves plan.
Harry and Thor meanwhile were searching for Malekith and his elves. They were encouraged to speed up by the rifts forming in the sky and around them which allowed them to see other worlds. Eventually they discovered the dark elves who had opted to ignore the stealth option.
The dark elves ship became visible just as its bottom part cut across the water before it reached the land and did the same, before stopping. It was rather hard not to notice it seeing as it easily dwarfed all the other buildings around it. The elves walked out of the ship just as Thor landed down on the ground, smashing it as he did so. At the same time Harry slowly glided down next to him, wearing his full armour with the hood up and the mask on. Padfoot appeared next to him in his battle mode.
"You know something," Harry said to Thor while keeping his eyes on the dark elves. "where I came from, elves were small little creatures that would stand no higher than your knee and live to serve their human masters. Right know...I'm kind of missing that." Thor snorted at that but did not reply as Malekith stopped along with his elves.
"You needn't have come so far Asgardian, death would have come for you soon enough." Malekith said calmly and confidently, he possessed the Aether after all, he was unstoppable. That and the fact that he had his army of elves with him made sure that his victory was all but guaranteed.
"Not by your hand." Thor glared at him, speaking just as confidently.
"Your universe was never meant to be!" Malekith spat. "Your world and your family will be extinguished!" Malekith shouted, he aimed his hand at the three. He used the Aether to send some dark red blasts towards them, Padfoot dodged while Harry blocked with a magical shield but was still pushed back a small amount. Thor on the other hand was knocked off of his feet.
Harry cast several spells at Malekith who blocked it all with a red shield, Malekith fired again once Thor had gotten back to his feet. Harry dodged out of the way while Thor stood his ground, using Mjolnir as a shield. Thor was pushed back but managed to stay on his feet.
"You know, with all of that power, I thought you would have hit harder." Thor grinned.
Malekith, clearly not liking that response, prepared to fire again. But Harry was quicker, he fired an explosive curse at the ground under Malekith, the ground exploded, hooting Malekith upwards and forwards. Harry teleported in place to grab Malekith by the neck in midair and slam him into the ground. Three claws shot out of Harry's hand and pierced Malekith's chest, Malekith let out a cry of pain but quickly blasted Harry away. As Harry flew through the air he cast a killing curse at Malekith, the green curse managed to him dead center in the chest but it did not really have the desired effect that Harry wanted as Malekith stood up a second later.
"Damn it," Harry said as he landed next to Thor. "the Aether must be protecting him, he should be dead."
"I think you are right," Thor frowned. "does this change anything?" He asked.
"No, I'm still going to rip out of him." Harry said as he moved forward.
Malekith fired a blast at Harry who quickly pulled up his shield. Harry was pushed back but managed to stay up, the shield charged before firing a blast at Malekith. Malekith was able to put up a small shield that blocked the blast, even if it did cause a massive hole in the shield. Something Thor took full advantage of, he threw Mjolnir and it crashed into Malekith, sending him flying away. Thor quickly went after him.
"Looks like it's just you and me, buddy." Harry said to Padfoot who barked in agreement before the two charged towards the dark elves. Harry dodged a couple of blasts before he fired a cutting curse, the curse appeared to have missed it's apparent target but quickly curved around and hit him in the back, causing him to crash into another two elves. Harry teleported closer, he and Padfoot got to work, cutting down soldier after soldier.
"We're running out of time." Erik said. He along with Jane, Loki, and Sif were stood on the top of a tower, looking down at the action.
"Almost there." Jane replied.
"Are you sure this is going to work?" Erik asked with a hint of worry in his voice. "These devices were made to detect anomalies, not cause them."
"Mortal, can't you work any faster?" Loki asked impatiently, he and Sif were put on guard duty and were currently guarding Erik and Jane who was fiddling with some device, Loki knew enough about it to tell that it was affecting the anomalies created by the convergence but not really how it worked.
"I'm going as fast as I can." Jane huffed in an irritated voice. "And you are not immortal." she reminded him.
"You never were patient." Sif rolled her eyes.
"Oh yes, of course, an army of dark elves are attacking, do forgive me for wanting to speed things up." Loki said sarcastically, also rolling his eyes.
"Come on Darcy." Jane whispered, hoping Darcy and Ian would hurry up with planting the devices. If all went to plan then she'd be able to control or at least target the effects from the anomalies. She looked down and saw Harry and Padfoot quickly and easily reducing the population of dark elves.
"The convergence will be in full effect in seven minutes." Erik spoke.
"That just means we need to keep Malekith busy for eight." Jane replied.
"Well...she's confident." Loki noted.
"You might want to hold on to something." Jane suggested, the three did as she said and grabbed onto nearby pillars. Jane, using her device, was able to send away a small group of dark elves.
"How did you do that?" Sif asked in an amazed voice.
"Oh well, the gravitational fields interact with the weak spots between worlds, creating a..."
"Sorry to interrupt but you might want to get that one." Loki suggested as he pointed to a group of dark elves.
"Huh? Oh!" Jane quickly used her device again to get rid of them.
"Beautiful and you possess a brain, no wonder why my brother likes you." Loki commented, earning a blush from Jane.
Harry ducked a punch before jabbing his wand at the dark elf, hitting him in the chest with the tip and sending him back and crashing into a trio of other elves. Harry quickly finished them off with a trio of killing curses.
"Woof!" Padfoot barked, Harry turned around and saw Malekith standing a small distance away. Above him rifts in the sky which lead to other worlds, including Asgard. Malekith was stood under the rifts and had become surrounded in a dark red storm made of the Aether. The wind around them had become just as harsh as it had in the dark world. The Aether storm rose and began increasing in size as it travelled up into the sky and began moving into different portals to infect the other worlds.
"Harry." A voice called, Harry head snapped in the opposite direction and saw Thor walking towards him without his hammer. He was shortly followed along by Jane, Erik, Loki and Sif.
"Late as always brother." Loki commented.
"Where the fuck were you?" Harry asked Thor.
"I was fighting Malekith," Thor growled. "I ended up fighting him all over nearly every realm there is. One moment we were fighting here, the next we're in the home of the dark elves and several other places before I was able to get back here."
"What is happening?" Sif asked as she looked at the dark storm.
"We're too late." Jane said in a horrified whisper.
"The convergence is at it's peak." Selvig said as Darcy and Ian arrived.
"Can those things stop it?" Thor asked, pointing to Selvig's devices.
"Too far away." Jane shook her head.
"How close do they have to be?" Loki frowned.
"Very." Erik replied.
"Yes of course, Merlin forbid our lives be any easier to save." Harry sighed.
"We can't get any closer to that." Jane said as she gestured to the storm.
"Perhaps not, but I can." Thor said as he took the devices from the Selvig.
"I'll come with you, just in case." Harry said.
"I will follow." Sif said. "I'm a warrior too," She said when Harry and Thor looked like they were about to object. "I am capable of looking after myself."
"Actually what I was going to say was if you're coming then Loki will look after these lot." Harry said as he gestured to Jane and the others.
"You're trusting me to look after them?" Loki asked, raising an eyebrow.
"Yes, and I am trusting Padfoot to watch you." Harry said just as Padfoot barked. "Now come on." He added to Thor and Sif, both followed him as they headed towards the storm. They had only taken a few steps when a group of dark elves stopped in front of them. "Thor, me and Sif will deal with them, keep the devices safe." Harry ordered.
"Are you ready to fight?" Sif asked as she pulled out her sword.
"Ready whenever you are, Sif. " Harry said as he pulled out a sword from his armour body using his free hand. Sif and Harry charged towards the group, Sif quickly began sliding in-between the elves and cutting them down with her sword. Harry did the same but also sent a few spells in-between dodging and slicing, the two made quick work of the elves and joined Thor who had gone past them and into the Aether storm during the fight.
Once inside they saw Malekith with his arms stretched out, releasing the Aether. It was difficult to move with the Aether storm pushing them back.
"Malekith!" Thor yelled. Malekith turned to them, not showing the slightest sign of surprise.
"Darkness returns Asgardians, have you come to witness the destruction of your universe?" Malekith asked calmly.
"We do not give up!" Sif spat.
"We have come to accept your surrender." Thor said, glaring at Malekith. Malekith raised an arm, looking ready to attack, unfortunately for him Harry was faster. Harry sent a high powered lightning bolt at Malekith who was barely able to shield in time. Sif quickly took one of the devices in Thor's hand and threw it upwards, it arced down and pierced through Malekith's right arm.
A second later Malekith's arm disappeared along with the device, Thor quickly threw another one that got rid of Malekith's other arm. Though it didn't appear to do much good as Malekith was able to regrow his limbs with the help of the Aether.
"Uh guys, I don't want to sound like I'm complaining but can the next one go somewhere more important?" Harry asked. "Like his head or his chest? Even his cock?"
"You think you can stop this?! The Aether cannot be destroyed!" Malekith yelled as his arms
"Because I'm not going to rip the Aether out of his head." Harry whispered to Thor as he pulled out a container. "Ready?"
"Ready." Thor nodded as he rushed towards Malekith while holding one of Jane's devices in his hand while using the other to summon Mjolnir to his hand.
"Ready." Sif nodded as she pulled out a container to hold the Aether, she tossed it to Harry.
"As I'll ever be." Harry nodded as he caught it.
Sif grabbed his arm and Harry teleported the two of them in front of Malekith, Malekith looked surprised but quickly recovered and threw a punch at Harry who ducked and cast an acid spell that hit Malekith in the eye. Malekith roared in pain but Sif did not allow him long to get used to it before she stabbed him in the chest with her sword, she pulled on it, slicing all the way down, causing a massive cut from the chest to stomach. Harry, with the container in his hand, shoved his arm into the hole before Malekith could repair it.
Harry roared in Malekith's face before he pulled his hand his hand out of Malekith just before Sif kicked him a great distance away. The pair looked at Malekith and saw that he still had some of the Aether left in him but it was flying out of him to rejoin the rest Harry had in the container. Harry assumed that was because he had the main part of the Aether. Malekith was barely able to get to his feet when Thor jumped over Harry and slammed one of the devices into Malekith's chest and while using Mjolnir to slam him away with as much as force as possible. Malekith went flying backwards until he crashed into his ship.
Thor and Harry were unfortunate enough to be thrown backwards as well thanks to some of the Aether still being in Malekith. The device activated and Malekith disappeared with a scream, Thor was blasted the farthest away while Harry and Sif flew back a quarter of the distance that Thor had as they weren't as close.
The container nearly fell out of Harry's hand but he managed to barely keep it in his hand, he was struggling to hold it still as the rest of the Aether flew into it. Harry slammed the container shut before letting out a sigh of relief. He got to his feet and looked around, the rifts had disappeared and it looked like the convergence was over. He looked around at the others and saw that they were standing there, perfectly unharmed, or at least as unharmed as they could get. Though it did not escape Harry's notice that there were a couple more dead dark elves than before and that Loki had a dagger in his hand.
"Is it done?" Sif asked as she stood up.
"Yeah," Harry sighed as he nodded his head. "I've got it here." Harry said as he tossed the container to Thor who had walked up to them.
"It's done!" Thor grinned happily before walking towards the others.
"That was a good battle." Sif spoke once Thor was far enough away to not hear her.
"Not my best, not my worst." Harry nodded. "You did good today."
"Not as well or even as much as you." Lady Sif replied with a small smile.
"You did your part and kept the brains of the group safe." Harry replied. "You were important today."
"Thank you," She blushed ever so slightly. "I will probably have to go back to Asgard after this."
"If Odin causes you any problems then just say the word and I'll come and help." Harry responded, he was rather worried about what Odin could try to do. Harry was rather hoping that the old guy would just stick to staying in Asgard and let the guy's off with a warning since they did just save all the realms after all.
"Thank you." Sif said softly before she took another step towards Harry, she looked rather tense and nervous.
"Sif? I..." Harry found himself cut off when Sif grabbed him by the back of his head and pulled him into a short but passionate kiss.
"Thank you Harry." She smiled brightly at him before she walked away towards the others. Harry didn't respond as it took him several moments for his brain to reboot, but once that had happened he was finally able to speak the words that were on his mind.
"The fuck?"
A.N: Hi guy, hope you liked the chapter. Yeah, Sif kissed Harry, I'll try to keep the drama in the next chapter to a minimum. Also yeah, I've decided not to bring Teddy back (not now anyway). Many people pointed out how it was better for Harry to actually deal with his problems through the girls and I find I rather agree.
Also guys, real talk for a moment, I've heard a few people talking about P.a.t.r.e.o.n (I spelt it like that because for some reason the website wasn't letting me save it when I wrote it the normal way, just read it without all the full stops). I was thinking about getting it but I don't know if I have to pay like a monthly fee or something or even if anyone would actually be willing to donate any money to me.
If I did get it would anybody be willing to donate money? Before you answer, I'm not getting to get depressed, angry and suicidal if you say no (not much at least).
Anyway, thanks for reading, feel free to leave a review and enjoy the omakes...these free omakes...just saying.
Omake 1 (idea from Hoodedgenius98):
"Oh master..." A voice purred.
"Huh?" Harry opened his eyes only to jump back when he saw Dobby looking at him. "Dobby?! I thought you... I killed you! I buried you and made sure you wouldn't come back!"
'oh great master harry potter sir you can't get rid of me!" Dobby grinned.
Omake 2 (idea from DZ2):
"In you go." Harry said before he shoves Loki into a portal. Everyone follows after him.
"Where is he gone?" Harry frowned when he couldn't see Loki, only for Loki to drop out of the sky and land in front of them.
"I have been falling...for thirty minutes!" Loki yelled.
"Hmm, didn't feel like thirty minutes."
Omake 3 :
"This is groot," Star Lord said as he began introducing the rest of his team. "the furball is called Rocket. That's Mantis, he's Drax, I'm Peter Quill but you can call me Star Lord. And this is my lovely girlfriend Gamora..." Peter freezes when he can no longer see Gamora standing next to him. "...gamora?"
"Uh...Quill..." Rocket pointed, Peter followed the direction he was pointing at and saw Harry carrying Gamora away, holding her bridal style.
"Hey!" Peter shouted.
"Dibs." Was all Harry said before he continued walking.
Omake 4:
"I think we can make a great couple." Hela smirked.
"Let's ask the judges." Harry said, they turned to Sif and Natasha who were both sitting behind a table, they two looked at each other and after some intense whispering turned to Harry and Hela, Natasha holds up a paddle with a nine while Sif holds up one with an eight.
"She's in." They said at the same time.
