"And there came a day, a day unlike any other, when Earth's mightiest heroes and heroines found themselves united against a common threat. On that day, the Avengers were born--to fight the foes no single superhero could withstand! Through the years, their roster has prospered, changing many times, but their glory has never been denied! Heed the call, then--for now, the Avengers Assemble!"

CUT TO: EXT. THRONE ROOM, SPACE ­ NIGHT
[Kneeling behind a THRONE, a clothed, armored figure known as THE OTHER.]

THE OTHER: The tesseract has awakened. It is on a little world, a human world. They would wield its power,... [he holds out the scepter]

Loki: [Coming out from the shadows, taking the staff]

THE OTHER: But our ally knows its workings as they never will. He is ready to lead and our force, our Chitauri, will follow.

[thousands of Chitauri are awaiting orders]

THE OTHER: The world will be his. The universe, yours. And the humans, what can they do but burn?

[Cut to a SHIELD facility at night. They are evacuating by helicopter and vehicle, and one helicopter lands, dropping off Maria Hill and Nick Fury while Agent Phil Coulson is awaiting them.]

NICK FURY: How bad is it?

AGENT PHIL COULSON: That's the problem, sir. We don't know.

[They enter the facility, passing fleeing technicians, taking only the essentials]

COULSON: Dr. Selvig read an energy surge from the Tesseract four hours ago.

FURY: NASA didn't authorize Selvig to go to test phase.

COULSON: He wasn't testing it. He wasn't even in the room. Spontaneous event.

AGENT MARIA HILL: It just turned itself on?

FURY: Where are the energy levels now?

COULSON: Climbing. When Selvig couldn't shut it down, we ordered evac.

FURY: How long to get everyone out?

COULSON: Campus should be clear in the next half hour.

FURY: Do better.

[They continue walking down deeper into the facility]

HILL: Sir, evacuation may be futile.

FURY: We should tell them to go back to sleep?

HILL: If we can't control the Tesseract's energy, there may not be a minimum safe distance.

FURY: I need you to make sure Phase 2 prototypes are shipped out.

HILL: Sir, is that really a priority right now?

FURY: Until suchtime as the world ends, we will act as though it intends to spin on. Clear out the tech below. Every piece of Phase 2 on a truck and gone.

HILL: Yes sir. [To agents nearby.] With me.

[Nick fury and Agent Phil Coulson enter the radiation facility housing the Tesseract, the area cluttered with machines and people leaving.]

FURY: Talk to me, Doctor.

[Dr. Erik Selvig appears from behind a CMS machine, concerned. The Tesseract is glowing unusually birghter and a flare of blue shoots out from it, hitting things at random.]

Dr. ERIK SELVIG: Director.

FURY: Is there anything we know for certain?

SELVIG: The Tesseract is misbehaving.
