(Stark's POV)

Thank god for the bracelets.

As I'm falling, I hit a small button on the metal and my suit flies through the air to me, piece by piece, attaching first at my wrists and spreading all over until I'm covered in iron.

"Dumbass Loki," I say into my helmet with a grin.

It quickly falls as I see the creatures coming down in the sky.

"Well goddam," I quickly tap the earpiece, "So uh, who's about?"

"You all seeing this too?" Romanoff asks.

"D'you know, I thought I was going crazy," I hit her with some sarcasm. "Glad to know it's not just me."

She ignores me, "Okay, we all need to spread out, protect as much of the city as we can. Who's got eyes on Loki?"

"I got him," Barton replies. "Let me get higher up and I'll have a clear shot."

"Do not kill him!" Thor demands. "Capture him, tie him up, whatever you wish. But do not kill him. His fate will be determined on Asgard."

"You got it princess."

"It's Prince, actually. I understand this may be difficult for your small brain to comprehend."

"Boys, now is not the time," Romanoff scolds us. "Anyone heard from Bruce?"

She's met by silence across the line.

"Okay. Never mind. Let's just get this job done, got it?"

"I'll cover the east side," Rogers instructs us, which I can't say I'm too pleased about, "Romanoff, cover Barton until he gets high enough to corner Loki."

"You got it," she says as we hear the sound of her feet connecting with the ground as she runs.

"Thor, you take the west side. Metal Man-"

"It's Iron Man! Come on guys, it's not hard."

"Whatever. As you're the only one of us who can fly, circle around and catch any strays."

"I have my hammer. I can fly with that."

"Probably best to leave it to the expert," I say as I activate the guns on my suit. "I know these streets better than you do anyway."

"It's merely turning corners, I'm sure I can manage. I am, after all, the Pri-"

"Prince of Asgard. We get it."

"Boys! I swear to god I'm going to smash your heads together once this is done. We don't have time for this. Everyone just get into your positions, and be prepared."

I ascend into the air, spotting each of the others as I rise. I receive a thumbs up from everyone apart from Rogers; he just flips me off.

Charming.

"Right then. Let's do this shit."
