The Mad Titan

Chapter 18-The Battle

I own only my characters.

Jen's POV-

I stood in front of the space that would soon turn into the portal. I bounced up and down on my toes and smoothed my navy suit down. I checked to make sure that all my weapons were in place and relaxed slightly when they were. I looked towards Loki and he gave me a reassuring smile. "It'll be OK, you'll do fine," he told me.

I just swallowed nervously. "Sure, sure. Just remember, only keep him busy. Don't chase him off or anything," I reminded him.

"Aim for the face when you use snowballs," Tony added.

"Stop listening in, Tony!" I exclaimed. "Jesus, go make out with your boyfriend or something."

"I don't think that's the wisest pre-battle warm-up plan," Steve said.

"Then what was this morning?" Clint quipped. "Or was I the only one who saw both of you guys' limp?" he wondered.

"Save my virgin ears!" howled Bucky.

Everyone burst into laughter. "As if your ears are virgin," snorted Nat.

Suddenly, the ground rumbled. "Guys," I warned.

"Ready?" Loki asked me, worry in his eyes.

"Of course," I replied. I gave him a deep kiss and pulled away. "Now Jotun up!"

He rolled his eyes, but complied. He grew taller, his skin became a lovely blue with intricate markings, and his eyes became red like rubies. He saw me staring and shifted awkwardly. "Stop looking," he muttered.

"I knew a Jotun girl, but she didn't look like you," I told him, breathless and wonderstruck. "Wow."

He looked at me in amazement. "You think I look...good?"

"You look wonderful," I assured him. "I'd kiss you again, but I might get frostbite," I shrugged.

He rolled his eyes at me. I just winked at him.

Again, the ground shook. "Stop flirting and pay attention!" commanded Steve.

I turned my attention back to the space where the portal was just appearing. "Go on my signal," I ordered the team.

They all muttered their understanding and we stood in awe and fear of what would happen next.

The portal ripped apart the space in an instant. Out flew hundreds of Chituari. I heard the team swear various swears and just licked my lips nervously. I waited until the leaders came out of the portal. The first was The Other, then came Thanos. He grinned smugly and I felt my blood boil. I waited till the flow of aliens lessened and saw the majority of the army. "ATTACK!!" I screamed.

Thor and Hulk sped past me, eager to fight. Tony started to attack the airborne aliens and Clint started to shoot down the bigger creatures. Steve and Nat didn't have to wait longer before the fight got to them. While they were all distracted Loki, Jay, and I walked to the leaders, stopping occasionally to kill some aliens.

"Well, well, well. If it isn't the Jotun runt," snarled Thanos.

"Oh please," I snorted. "He's taller than you!"

"And you brought your friends. Join us now and win or you can die," The Other offered Jay and I.

"As if," sneered Jay.

"Yeah, we're gonna win," I said confidently.

"Is that so?" The Other asked, amused.

"Yep," I replied. "Because while you have the numbers, we have skill," I smirked.
