My Little Avengers: Part 1

"Obtain the mad titan's power?" asked Loki, seemingly intrigued by what was being said to him. "How do you propose to do that Grofar or whatever your name is?"

"GROGAR!" shouted the blue ram, starring down Loki in the face. "And I have brought you on the account that if I am to conquer both the ponies of Equestria and the humans of Earth, I need the Mad Titan's power."

Still none of the villains got what Grogar was trying to explain to them.

"Perhaps," he said, touching the gold necklace around his neck as he turned to the attention of the remnants of the robot. "A demonstration of my power is in order."

Releasing a gold orb from his necklace, Grogar watched as the destroyed robot suddenly began to reassemble itself, much to the shock of the villains. For several minutes, they all watched in surprise as the robot fully assembled itself. Once it's head was back on, the eyes glowed red and the robot let out an evil laugh much to Grogar's delight.

"I can't believe this," gasped Adrian. "Ultron."

"I live once again!" the evil robot roared, stretching his arms out in jubilation. "Ultron has returned!"

"How could you bring him back to life?" asked Loki, looking over at Grogar.

"Because I need him just as much as I need all of you," answered Grogar. "I've watched each of your humiliating defeats at the hands of puny do gooders called the Avengers."

"Who are the Avengers?" asked Ego, much to Grogar's dismay. "All I want is to conquer the galaxy."

"You Ego, will be useful in my plans as much as the rest of you. For I need another team of servants to make sure my ultimate plan is a success."

As Grogar spoke, they heard the sounds of other voices being heard in the background. Grogar motioned for the villains in front of him to ignore them.

"Never mind them, my warriors," he instructed. "They have their own issues to worry about. All you need to do is focus on defeating Thanos once and for all."

"You…seriously want us to kill Thanos?" remarked Loki. "Why, even the Hulk couldn't defeat him. How do you even expect us to do it?"

"By working together," answered Grogar, activating his crystal ball and showcasing each of the villains defeats. "Working alone, you were unable to achieve in your goals. But, by working together, your goals can be accomplished."

As Grogar spoke, Adrian realized what was happening. He was being brought into doing something that he didn't want to be doing.

"Listen," he interrupted, catching Grogar's attention. "I don't mean to interrupt, but I don't think that…?"

Suddenly, Grogar interrupted Adrian by engulfing him in his magic aura released by his necklace.

"You are the Vulture, yes?" Grogar asked menacingly. "Defeated by Spider-Man?"

"What is that to you, Grogar, or whatever your name is?" Adrian gasped as Grogar tightened his magical grip on him. "I'm…just a guy that was trying to make a living for my family."

"But you qualify to be among my ranks, do you not?" Grogar asked, suddenly throwing Adrian against the wall. "You wanted to obtain powerful armor to make a profit off of, correct?"

"Why does that matter? I didn't want to kill anyone, even Spider Man."

"But you did try to kill him, Adrian. You tried to kill a young human boy that was in love with your daughter, correct?"

Still, Adrian stood his ground.

"Well, you do not have a choice, Adrian," continued Grogar, snarling slightly. "If you refuse to obey me, you shall suffer the penalty of watching your family be disposed of by me."

"You leave them alone!" cried Adrian. "Don't drag them into this!"

"Then help me accomplish my goals and I will not harm them. But if you don't help me, I will do what I said. You shall become the vulture again and help me in my plans!"

Suddenly, Grogar activated his power again, sending a hypnotic gaze into Adrian's eyes. Loki and Ego watched along with Ultron as Grogar released his grip on Adrian, sending him down onto the floor.

"Now, get up and join my ranks," he ordered and the now hypnotized Adrian did as he was told. "That's better."

"Um, if you don't mind my asking," asked Loki, trying to shake off what had just happened. "When you say you were going to dispose of him, is it by magic or…?"

Raising his hoof to silence Loki, Grogar turned towards an opening in his lair where a low growling sound was coming out. Stamping his hoof, Grogar watched as the low growling suddenly got louder. Emerging from the shadows, the creature revealed himself to be a grizzly bear with a scar on the right side of it's face. Both Loki and Ego were shaking in fear upon seeing the creature.

"What is this?!" cried Loki, taken aback by the beast. "Explain yourself!"

"This is Scarface, my most loyal servant," Grogar replied. "If anyone disobeys me, he is their executioner."

The continuous low growling of the grizzly bear confirmed the loyalty that Grogar was seeking out of them. The bear was mean, the bear was dangerous and he obeyed no one but Grogar and Grogar alone.

"Now, I must recruit several more of your comrades to take part in my plan," Grogar said, dismissing the Grizzly. "I would prepare yourselves by getting to know one another a little more."

Leaving the three villains alone, Grogar went out to recruit more soldiers for his ultimate conquest.

….

Meanwhile, in another part of the prison known as Tartarus, the shadowy figure of a horned female like creature sat alone in an isolated cell with several other dangerous creatures. A white Alicorn pony flanked wo pony guards stepped into the wing and faced the creature, her back turned towards them.

"Prisoner Hela?" the winged alicorn asked, causing the creature to let out a disgusted sigh.

"What…do you want?" she asked indignantly, her back still towards them.

"Turn and face me!" commanded the winged alicorn in an authorative voice. Doing as she was told, the winged creature turned around. "Do you know why you are here?"

"Because the depths of hell couldn't hold me?" laughed Hela. "Because I murdered an angel of Satan himself? What makes you think you can keep me here?"

"You are here on the request of your kingdom, Asgard, on an additional charge of murder."

Hela merely sniggered at this.

"In addition to the other counts of murder and other war crimes. Why do you laugh at these accusations? Do you realize of the severity of the punishments that have been given to you?"

"You will fail to cage me just like those fools did, Princess Celestia. If my kingdom failed to keep me prisoner, then so will you."

"I doubt that you will escape from here," cautioned Celestia. "This prison is guarded by a three headed beast who will kill whoever tries to escape."

No sooner did Celestia say those words did a low growl come from the entrance of Tartarus. Still, Hela was unfazed.

"If I were you, I would get used to being here because otherwise, the penalty for another escape…is death."

Hela watched as a portal formed and Celestia walked through along with her guards. Once she was gone, Hela slowly began to think of her next escape attempt. Suddenly, another voice caught her attention.

"Don't worry, fraulein," said a German voice. "That was the same lecture she gave me when I came here."

Turning around, Hela began to search for the source of the voice. Finally, she noticed a human like figure with a red skull-like head.

"Hmm, it appears that I am not the only one here, isn't it?" remarked Hela. "Who are you?"

Stepping into the faint light, the figure looked intently at his fellow prisoner, examining her over.

"My name, fraulein, is Johann Schmidt," he said, clutching the bars of his cell. "But you may call me…Red Skull."

"Red Skull?" chuckled Hela, producing a small smile. "Seems like a fitting name for someone like you."

"It is, isn't it? It's too bad that Herr Hitler didn't give me that name. It would have been appropriate given my nature. Now, it appears you want to escape, yes?"

"Very much," replied Hela.

"Well, I have tried to escape, but every time that I try…"

Turning around, Red Skull removed his shirt and revealed red markings on his back. Hela was amazed by this.

"…they beat me like a schoolboy. I was whipped by horses, for God's sake. But, they are nothing more than a mere obstacle to me. It's Rogers I want."

A look of confusion befell on Hela's face.

"Who are you talking about?"

"I am talking about a Yankee soldier who one of those 'doughboys' that destroyed all our hopes and dreams of the Third Reich. They call him 'Captain America.'"

Suddenly, Hela got herself an idea to help her fellow prisoner.

"What if I help you find whoever it is you are looking for and I help you kill him?" she proposed. "I am the Angel of Death, you know."

"So was Herr Menigle," remarked Red Skull, looking over at Hela intently once more. "According to the outside world. Now, are you certain that you will help me kill Captain Rogers and not backstab me?"

"Of course."

Suddenly, before another could be spoken, the two prisoners were engulfed by dark magic and disappeared from their cells.

…

Meanwhile, Princess Celestia returned to her castle in Canterlot, having been placed in a reflective mood. She was completely unsure of what had just happened.

"Sister?" called a female voice as Celestia came in for a landing in the kingdom's courtyard. Turning around, a dark blue alicorn pony with a flowing blue mane landed by Celestia. "How did it go?"

"She seemed defiant on escaping again, Luna," sighed Celestia, briefly embracing the pony. "Just like she did before and caused chaos in Asgard. Personally, I think she is far too dangerous to be locked in Tartarus."

"But we agreed to keep her alive for the good of our respective kingdoms, sister."

"Time will tell Luna, time will tell."

Luna couldn't help but worry about her sister's mood and little did she and Celestia realize of the horrors that they would soon be forced to endure along with the rest of their subjects.

…

Meanwhile, Hela and Red Skull found themselves teleported into Grogar's lair.

"Where are we?" asked Hela, looking around at where she was. "What is this place?"

"You are in my lair," answered Grogar, peeking from the shadows and walking over towards his newest recruits. "You can call me…Grogar."

"Grogar?" asked Red Skull. "What are you and what do you want with us?"

"I am recruiting warriors to carry out my ultimate plan to conqueror both Equestria and the human race."

Hearing this made Red Skull chuckle evilly. Being a member of a deadly group of people gave him nothing but shear delight.

"I have studied your actions and I find you are both qualified to join my ranks," said Grogar. "Come and meet your fellow warriors."

"Fellow warriors?" asked Hela, but Grogar merely walked away from them.

Following the blue ram, Red Skull and Hela found themselves face to face with the other recruited villains. Loki felt his mouth drop upon seeing Hela in front of him.

"Hela?" gasped Loki, suddenly rising to his feet in shock. "What…what are you doing here?"

"Hello, brother."

"I trust that you know one another," remarked Ego. "Is there anyone else joining us?"

"You shall be the ones to serve me for the time being," said Grogar. "Now, the time has come for us to discuss the reason why you are all here…to obtain the power of Thanos, the mad titan himself!"
