SHIELD helicarrier.
“What is it, Nick?” Natasha asked as she and Clint came into the room. Normally she’d be more formal, but well, it was private.
“We may have a problem,” Fury said. Next to him, Bruce shook his head, looking worried.
“You mean bigger than the aftermath of an alien invasion?” Clint asked. The monitors behind Fury were still showing the clean up activity, dead Chitauri leviathans being removed from the roads while crews of LEOs were trying to track down all the tech that had been scattered over the city.
“Yes.” Fury gestured at one screen, a map of the United States on it. “Loki may have been more active than we knew.”
“After the fight,” Bruce said. “Tony and I were working on a worldwide system—SPYEYE, to detect any further attempts to open a portal.”
“But Thor has the Tesseract,” Natasha said.
“But the power from the Tesseract might be something someone could duplicate.” Banner shrugged. “Tony has some ideas on that, and he’s locked himself in his lab.”
Natasha glanced at Clint, and he gave an almost imperceptible nod. Of all of them, Tony had the least experience in combat. Given his past… instability, Natasha had a good idea of what Banner meant.
“But, SPYEYE started getting hits last week, three weeks after the invasion,” Fury said, calling up a close map of a city called Arcadia. “Sporadic, and the signature is…”
“Different from either the Tesseract or the Bifrost, but definitely related.” Bruce shook his head. “Just a few at first, but now we’re getting these little flashes, like clusters, all through the city, though we can’t really localize them.”
“But open up enough little holes…” Clint said, leaning forward.
“And you can bring through a big army.” Fury called up another image, this one showing children running around, some waving their arms frantically. One Asian girl, fully dressed, was screaming at people to stop looking at her, trying to cover herself with her hands. “And then this happened—an entire school had a simultaneous freakout, involving bad dreams, which happened to them when they were awake. It’s only by good luck none of them were hurt—” the imagery cut to a security camera showing the road in front of the school and a kid almost being hit by a truck as he ran from something invisible.

“Loki’s staff?” Clint hissed. “He used it on kids?”
“We don’t know,” Bruce said. “None of the adult victims behaved so erratically.”
“No, we just killed people,” Clint said. “And did the best job we could of it.”
Natasha winced. Clint really hated Loki.
“But Loki is gone, the staff is waiting for Thor, and we don’t know what impact gradually losing its influence would have on children,” Fury said. “Just like we don’t know what was so important in a little bedroom community to attract Loki.”
“And make him subtle,” Bruce said. “Remember New York.”
Natasha had a sudden, worried feeling. “What if he was deliberately keeping quiet here?”
“That, Agent Romanov, is one of our biggest worries. What if New York was the distraction and Arcadia the main event? You and Hawkeye will be flying in today—we have a covert field for the jet. Rodgers will be joining you in a few days.”
“What about Bruce?” Hawkeye asked.
“I’ll be refining SPYEYE,” Bruce said. “We’ll be moving closer, but until we figure out what caused that,” he pointed at the school and panicked children. “I don’t think you want the Big Guy around.”
Natasha didn’t have the feign her shudder. “Cover?”
“Some teachers decided they wanted to take their sick days. The school’s been shorthanded for some time, so you’ve got a PE gig, Clint. and Natasha will be replacing the nurse.”
“Great,” Clint said. “High school.”
Natasha nodded. Good cover, though, nobody bothered to get to know subs, and between PE and the nurse's office, they’d be well suited to cover the school.
“What about Rodgers?” she asked.
“He’ll be staying in a hotel, doing the tourist thing. He’ll be around, but no need for you to meet except by accident.”

Good. And not many people are likely to recognize him. There hadn’t been a lot of good shots during a small war in NYC, after all. And for people new to town, bumping into each other would be easy, though they could also use their coms.
“Not the best cover,” she said. “But it should work, especially if you want us to trigger a re—”
A sudden beeping sound interrupted her as the image of Arcadia started blinking.
“What is it?”
“More signals. They’ve been getting more common.” Banner frowned. “I don’t like this, guys.”
“Which means we’re running out of time,” Fury said. “Barton, Romanov, you have your orders.”
The tennis ball flew through a portal, only to fly out of another one in time to nearly bean Jim in the head before he got his shield up.
“Almost got you, Jim,” Claire said.
“And you’re not even breathing hard,” Toby said. “You’ve been making portals for almost an hour!”
“Not big ones,” Claire pointed out.
“But far bigger than any you’ve made before, especially in such short succession,” Blinky said. “To say nothing of your ability to enable us to enter this deserted warehouse!” The Troll looked around the dimly lit building. “A place both large and secluded, where we have no worries of being discovered!”

Statless
Summary Alexander Weiss, an intelligent and slightly unusual man, always dreamt of becoming a mage. Sadly, reality is harsh and even his best efforts never allowed him to achieve his goal during his lifetime... or did they? One has to be careful what they wish for, lest they might live to see it fulfilled. Description Follow Alex, a man whose pursuit of magic could not even be stopped by his non-magical reality, going as far as to create it himself, only to encounter an unsurmountable obstacle shortly before achieving his lifes goal, denying him all access to these powers. His journey will take him through a miraculous world, full of wonders, magic and manic beasts trying to devour him! He will learn much about this world during his adventures, exploring individual aspects of the System and the various monsters that came from it... or did they? Strong points What you'll get from this novel is the following (read with overly enthusiastic salesman-voice) : • An ending! I'll complete it, no matter what. Well, not "no matter what", but as long as I don't unexpectedly end, this novel won't either! • Good grammar! Might not be perfect, but it's definitely good enough to not detract from the story in the slightest. I'll also fix any reported mistakes as soon as possible, be they grammatical, syntactical or just inconsistencies. • No plot-armor! Or plot-weapons! Or plot-... potions? And no plot-holes! If you see some, it's most likely information that is being witheld for future revelations! But in the (hopefully) very unlikely case of such a vile beast being encountered, please inform me immediately and I'll see to slaying it without grace! (Translation: If you see plot-holes, tell me and I'll fix them) • Logic! [Hidden : Spoilers][Hidden : More Spoilers] [Moved to Chapter [Hidden Spoiler]'s Author's Note] Marvelous, I know! • Blue Boxes! And maybe something more! • Sensible retroactive edits! Not to be confused with radioactive edits! You'll not have to re-read previous chapters, even if they get some major edits. If they were to receive new information, I'll add that very information to the newly released chapters too, in a reasonable way. • Realism! Shocking, I know! Especially considering the tag related to that and the point about "Logic!". This also means that the story will be... well, realistically depicting a pretty messed up world. Don't expect bunnies... at least not cute ones. • Relatively faster paced! No long and boring descriptions of irrelevant stuff. There will be some longer descriptions about important things, but that's gonna be necessary world- and/or character-building! • Short action! Might not be a plus for some, but you won't have to look at a whole (or, god forbit, multiple) chapter describing a fight against the same enemy... • Strategy and hard progression! It's a dog-eat-dog world! No grinding/power-creep! If you're up against three enemies of your level at once, you've already lost! • Understanding! It will be mostly about discovering the wonders of this new world and how it became like that, all while trying to survive. So there will be enough action nonetheless! • Humor! Sometimes dark, sometimes light, always at the worst moment! • Constructive critics, welcome! Destructive critics, nope... I can handle criticism though, so don't go easy on me! Just make sure it's really a mistake when complaining about something. • Will add more in the future! If I can think of more stuff...
