"Amplifying the weapons impact." Erik replied, he was still upset at suddenly wearing pants and terrified of having Loki in a room with him but he was able to push that aside, for now at least. "For each additional world, the power will increase exponentially, the impact would be universal." He finished in a solemn voice.
"Yes but the alignment is only temporary," Thor reminded him. "he has to be in exactly the right place at the right time." He added.
"So we just need to work out where that is." Sif nodded, a small smile made its way on her face.
"Yes but how are we supposed to do that?" Darcy asked with a frown.
"It's simple. We just follow the directions." Erik said as he got up, the group followed him to a table that he placed a map on. "This has happened before, thousands of years ago, and the ancients were there to see it. All the great constructions, the Mayans, the Chinese, the Egyptians. They made use of the gravitational effects of the convergence, and they left us a map." He said as he began drawing on the map. "Stonehenge, Snowdon, the great Orme. These are all coordinates, taking us here." He finished as he pointed to a spot on the map.
"Greenwich?" Ian asked in a confused voice.
"The walls between worlds is going to be almost non-existent." Jane said. "Physics is going to go ballistic. Increases and decreases in gravity, spatial extrusions. The very fabric of reality is going to be torn apart."
"Thank god I already have my pants." Erik said as he shook his head.
"Your welcome." Harry said in a dry voice.
"I will deal with Malekith." Thor said as he summoned Mjolnir back into his hand.
"Be careful, he was dangerous before but now he's got the Aether in him." Harry warned. "Me, Padfoot and Sif will be backing you up, so will Loki."
"I will?" Loki raised an eyebrow, only to wilt under the combined glares of Harry, Sif and Thor. "Alright, alright, I will." Loki said before mumbling a few curses under his breath.
.....
"No," Harry said as he talked into his phone, he was standing in the corner of the room while the others stood in the center of the apartment, discussing the battle plan for the battle against the dark elves. "well it's hardly like it's my fault, is it? Well, what about Natasha? Fine, just make sure to do what I told you. No, I will send you a full report later. Yes, yes… okay. Fine, alright, talk to you later. Love you too Fury." Harry rolled his eyes as he ended the call, he walked back up to the group.
"Who were you talking to?" Thor asked.
"Fury." Harry answered.
"As in the director of Shield?" Jane blinked. "You told him what we were doing?"
"Not exactly," Harry said with a small shrug. "I gave him the bare details, all he basically knows is 'alien invasion' and 'there's a plan, don't get in the way'."
"I can't believe you told Shield!" Jane exclaimed with disbelief and a touch of anger. "Why on Earth would you do that?! The last thing we need is a bunch of suits getting in the way!"
"They're not getting in the way," Harry replied. "Fury trusts me, or at least trusts me enough to listen to me. His men will keep out of the way, their purpose is simple, evacuation. There will be people there and if I know people as well as I do, they'll be more focused on recording what is happening on their phones than they will be at escaping, at least until they actually get put in danger." Harry pointed out. Jane looked like she was about to argue but paused and considered his words before grudgingly conceding his point. "The 'suits' as you called them will be instructed to do nothing but evacuate, heck they might not even come in person and just get the local authorities to do it until they actually arrive. And that is all they're going to do."
"How can you be so sure?" Erik asked, raising an eyebrow.
"Fury knows better than to piss me off." Harry replied with Padfoot barking in agreement.
"Are you calling in any of the other Avengers?" Darcy asked in an excited voice.
"No," Harry shook his head. "Iron Man is apparently unavailable and so is the Hulk, the others are all on a joined mission to stop some idiot with codes to a nuclear bomb."
"A nuclear bomb?" Sif asked with a frown on her face.
"Basically a weapon that could kill a lot of people, and I mean a lot. There are about nine countries in total that have them, the idea is no country will dare to use their bomb because if they do then they risk another country using one of theirs against them."
"How dangerous is this weapon?"
"Think massive explosion but just much, much, a lot of much, bigger." Harry relied. "I'll give you a proper explanation another time. Alright, so we have our plan, right?" Harry asked the group.
"Pretty much," Erik nodded. "I would advise we all try and get some rest before this 'event' happens."
"Yes!" Jane agreed very quickly, very much not against taking some time to relax. She had just been to two different realms and had an ancient relic pulled out of her by a dark elf, nobody could blame her for having a few hours of sleep. "I am all for that."
"We will need to be have all of our energy for the battle." Harry agreed.
"Right, well… where are we supposed to sleep?" Loki asked as he looked around the room, unable to keep all the judging out of his voice.
"Oh yeah," Jane bit her lip. "we don't have a lot of room so you will probably have to sleep on the couch and on the floor, I can get some sleeping bags and…"
"Ahem," Harry coughed, interrupting Jane who was looking quite apologetic. "I have magic." Harry reminded her as he twirled his wand in one hand. "I can create beds for them to sleep in." He added when Ian still looked confused.
"Oh right." Ian blushed slightly, looking embarrassed at forgetting that.
"Are you staying here?" Thor asked Harry.
"Yes," Harry nodded. "if only to make sure Loki doesn't do anything bad."
"Is it so unbelievable that I can last an hour with no supervision and not try anything?" Loki asked, rolling his eyes. He was however taken slightly by surprise at the unified response of "yes" that was spoken by everyone in the room.
