My Little Avengers: Part 1

Thanos had returned to New York and this time, he had an army, an army of hypnotized humans at his disposal. The only thing standing in his way were a group of warriors, determined to keep the mad titan from reclaiming his true glory.

"Get out of my way," Thanos demanded, brandishing his sword tightly. "If you want to live!"

"I'm only asking you once, Thanos!" cried Dr. Strange, channeling his magical powers into his hands. "You shall not pass us and reign terror on Equestria!"

The rest of the Avengers cried out in agreement, but Thanos ignored their determined sounds.

"I worked to build a better universe and you undid what I had done! Now, I shall do what I must do even if I have to kill you again."

"Just try and stop us," called Steve, tightening his shield's strap around his wrist and feeling the blood flow profusely through his veins. "You won't get what you want as long as we are together."

Having heard enough, Thanos raised his sword and commanded the hypnotized army to advance on the Avengers. The sounds of marching resonated like a loud series of earthquakes barrowing down on the group of Earth's mightiest.

"I don't think they heard you, Cap," whispered Tony, who was more than ever now wishing for a temporary earthly form. "And they can fear me as long as I can be mortal again."

Suddenly, almost as if his prayers were suddenly heard, Tony felt himself feel like a normal human being once more. Thanos watched in amazement as Iron Man appeared in flesh and blood.

"Mr. Stark!" gasped Spider-Man, amazed that his mentor was alive once more. "You're…you're back!"

Just as equally happy was Pepper, who activated her Rescue armor and immediately took her husband's side, firing blasts from her armored hands at the hypnotized humans, sending them back onto the ground.

But Thanos wasn't impressed and with a loud battle cry, ordered his army to charge on the Avengers.

"Avengers assemble!" cried Steve and the Avengers charged on the advancing army, but Tony and Steve had their eyes set on Thanos himself. Letting out another loud battle cry, Thanos swing his sword and repeatedly attempted to strike at Iron Man and Captain America, but the two of them deflected each blow Thanos tried to give them. Unfortunately, Steve couldn't escape one particular blow and suddenly got cut on his shoulder by one of Thanos' swings. Seeing the drops of blood flowing off of him, Steve grew more and more determined to fight.

…

Elsewhere, Red Skull led his group of hypnotized fighters against Ant Man and Bucky Barnes. Activating his suit's special powers, Ant Man shrunk down to the size of an ant and just as a hypnotized Flash Sentry joined in the fray, he quickly grew back to normal size, sending the hypnotized Flash flying into an apartment window.

"Twilight was never a good fit for you, Flash," Ant Man muttered before being taken down a hypnotized Cheerliee and several students.

With Ant Man overpowered, Bucky realized he was on his own, leaving him as easy prey for Red Skull. The Nazi grabbed Bucky by the scruff of his shirt and tossed him into the ground.

…

Meanwhile, Black Panther and Hawkeye came face to face with the Dazzlings and the Crystal Prep students.

"What do we have here?" laughed Adagio as she eyeballed them. "A human in a catsuit and another with arrows? Don't make me laugh. Sic them!"

However, Black Panther didn't take lightly to this tasteless remark and using his claws, attempted to strike Adagio, only to be diverted by Indigo Zap and Sugarcoat.

"I don't want to hurt you," Black Panther said to the two Crystal Prep students, but they didn't listen to his pleas. Instead, they charged at him while Clint kept firing arrows Aria Blaze and Sonata Dusk.

"You know," remarked Sonata as she dodged an arrow. "Those arrows can really hurt you."

"No kidding, air head," mocked Aria, also dodging an arrow as Sunny Flare, Lemon Zest and Sour Sweet charged at Clint using karate moves on him. Just then, before they could strike another blow at Clint, two pairs of webbing tied the three of them up. Looking over, Clint saw both Spider Man and Spider Woman head over to his side.

"Thanks," Clint remarked, smiling at them.

"Don't mention it," replied Spider Man, just as both he and Spider Woman were picked up by a dark force and thrown from the scene. Clint looked up and saw Hela, her black wings open to show the terror she possessed.

"Stand aside, mortal!" she cried, hissing like a snake.

Suddenly, she felt something strike her from behind and she turned and saw Falcon flying towards her, firing guns from both his hands.

Falcon flew faster and faster towards her, but before he could get close enough, Loki intercepted him, striking Falcon down with his tri horned spear. The Asgardian was then bombarded by War Machine, but using his wits, produced a magic shield to protect himself from the blasts.

"You've got to be…" War Machine started to say before Hela took to the air and grabbed him, sending him into the side of a building.

…

Elsewhere, Iron Man, Rescue, Captain America and Dr. Strange continued their focus on Thanos. But the Mad Titan continued to match them move for move, swinging his sword at them as he tried to get into the sanctum.

"Why don't you just surrender to me?" Thanos suggested. "You are no match for my forces!"

"In your dreams, purple people eater!" Iron Man replied, mockingly and causing Thanos to snap even further, sending Iron Man up through the Sanctum's windows, catching the attention of the humane six. "That…went well."

"Iron Man, are you okay?" asked Rainbow Dash, helping him to his feet along with Wong.

"Couldn't be better," answered Iron Man, groaning slightly. "Don't worry, we'll keep holding him off. Wong, stay at your post!"

Acknowledging the order, Wong and the girls watched as Iron Man took to the air, heading back outside and fighting off Thanos.

…

At that moment, Sombra and the cloned Daybreaker and Nightmare Moon did battle with Scarlet Witch, using her telekinetic powers to defend herself from them.

"Get to the Equestria portal!" Thanos shouted to them as he took on Captain America and Rescue. "Go!"

Still feeling bitter over Thanos stealing his powers, Sombra did as he was told, leading Daybreaker and Nightmare Moon towards the sanctum. However, Dr. Strange saw they were coming and went to confront them, using his powers to stop them from moving further to the sanctum.

"That's as far as you'll go!" Dr. Strange cried, charging his powers. "If you want to get to Equestria…you'll have to go through me."

Sombra and the two brainwashed principals starred down the wizard, determined to get to the portal at all costs.

…

From his lair in Equestria, Grogar was watching the battle in his crystal ball while Adrian and Ego stood in front of him.

"I am sure you were wondering why I didn't send you with the others," he said, looking up at them. "It appears to me that we have a much more urgent problem on our hooves."

"What do you mean?" asked Ego and Grogar used his powers to change the crystal ball and show them Tempest Shadow and her friends leading Sunset Shimmer, Banner, Thor, Black Widow's ghost and the Guardians of the Galaxy towards Canterlot. Ego was stunned when he saw Quill's pony form. "Peter? What's he doing here?"

"They are here because they are to take part in the resistance against me," explained Grogar. "I need you two to spy on them."

But Grogar then turned his attention towards Adrian with a careful eye.

"And remember what I said about harming your family if you disobeyed me," he cautioned to Adrian just as he used his powers to transform Adrian and Ego into a unicorn pony and an actual vulture. "Now go!"

Using his powers again, Grogar sent them from his sight and into Canterlot.

…

…

Back at the Battle of the Sanctum, Dr. Strange immediately took charge against Sombra, using his magic to keep them back. But Sombra wasn't giving in and stormed at Dr. Strange, using his dark Equestrian magic to match the master of the mystic arts move for move. Letting out a loud yell, Sombra attempted to push Dr. Strange into submission.

Finally, Dr. Strange overpowered the magical onslaught and used a spell to send Sombra flying back into the two principal sisters. This made Daybreaker breathe fire at Dr. Strange in anger. Suddenly, before the two brainwashed sisters could counter at him, they suddenly became bombarded with barrage blasts from War Machine and Falcon.

The timing couldn't have come at a worse moment as Sombra rebounded and fired a blast of his dark magic at the two aerial warriors.

"I fear no aerial attack!" he laughed triumphantly as he once again starred down Dr. Strange, this time with a look of determination in his eyes.

…

At the same time, Thanos managed to subdue both Iron Man and Captain America, nearly breaking the latter's shield when he suddenly felt a surge of dark red magic picking him up off the ground. Turning around, he saw Scarlet Witch using her powers on him.

"You took…everything from me!" she seethed, her eyes glowing red.

"I don't fear you," Thanos groaned, knowing that Scarlet Witch had revenge in her eyes and not just any revenge.

"You will fear me," she said firmly and attempted to use her powers to crush Thanos like paper, trying to make him feel like she felt when her lover was murdered.

Before she could finish Thanos off, Hela grabbed Scarlet Witch by her hips and threw her into Black Panther, thus saving Thanos from being crushed to death. Thanos smiled at the angel of death at saving him. Scarlet Witch attempted to get back to her feet but was quickly overpowered by the growing brainwashed army.

…

From inside the sanctum, the Canterlot High girls could no longer sit back and watch the horrors taking place right outside.

"We've got to help them," said Sci-Twi with a determined look on her face. "Who's with me?"

"I'm with you, Twilight!" replied Rainbow Dash, much to the shock of Wong.

"But, you're supposed to…"

"We can't sit back any longer," interrupted Fluttershy. "Our friends are out there and we need to help them!"

"And rescuing our families and friends as well!" added Applejack.

"And there is nothing you can do to make us change our minds!" Rarity added to Wong.

…

With very little choice, Wong stood back and watched the Canterlot High girls assume their powers.

…

Now freed from being controlled by Scarlet Witch, Thanos went back to beating on Captain America. Even with Iron Man helping him, Captain America was no match for Thanos. Iron Man attempted to use his strength to hold Thanos back, but the Mad Titan was too strong for him.

"You are strong, Stark," Thanos said. "But not strong enough!"

Using the infinity gauntlet, Thanos picked Stark up and threw him aside like a rag doll. Captain America struggled to his feet, knowing Thanos was more than likely ready to kill him.

"You won't…get away with this," he gasped, tightening his shield even tighter. But, Thanos remained unfazed.

"I already have," he chuckled and pointed his sword right at Captain America.

But, before he could make his move, a blast of rainbow colored light engulfed the battlefield and all the Avengers watched in amazement as the six Canterlot High girls in their battle garb landed on the scene and ready to fight.

"We are not afraid of you," cried Sci-Twi. "If you mess with our friends and family…"

"…then you mess…" added Rainbow Dash.

…with us!" finished the group.

And charging fast, the six human girls faced down the one who sought after their powers.
