"And there came a day, a day unlike any other, when Earth's
          mightiest heroes and heroines found themselves united against a
          common threat. On that day, the Avengers were born--to fight the
          foes no single superhero could withstand! Through the years,
          their roster has prospered, changing many times, but their glory
          has never been denied! Heed the call, then--for now, the Avengers
          Assemble!"

          BURNING BLUE FLAMES. A smoky cube shape emerges - THE TESSERACT.
          Filling the screen with BLACKNESS.

          EXT. THRONE ROOM, SPACE � NIGHT

          Kneeling behind a THRONE, a CLOTHED, ARMORED FIGURE known as THE
          OTHER, bows.

           THE OTHER (V.O.)
           The Tesseract has awakened. It is on a
           little world. A human world. They would
           wield its power,...

                          CUT TO:
          THE OTHER faces a HORNED SHAPED SHADOW. LOKI. Loki is handed the
          CHITAURI SCEPTER, a long golden handle, fitted with a blue gem
          encircled with silver blades.

"Hey that's you!" A student pointed out. Said student looked embarrassed when they realized that everyone was now looking at them. Loki rolled his eyes "Way to state the obvious midguardian" Some people chuckle at this but otherwise stays silent.

THE OTHER (V.O.)
           But our ally knows its workings as they
           never will. He is ready to lead. And
           our force, our Chitauri, will follow.

          HIGH WIDE ON: TENS OF THOUSANDS of CHITAURI stand ready in a
          seething mass of neat rows and columns....the ground simply

          QUAKES.

           THE OTHER (V.O.)
           The world will be his. The universe
           yours. And the humans, what can they do
           but burn?

                          CUT TO:

          EXT. S.H.I.E.L.D. PROJECT P.E.G.A.S.U.S FACILITY � NIGHT

          Out in the NEW MEXICO desert, a remote research facility is in a
          state of panic. It's an evacuation. A SWOOPING helicopter flies
          in.

          CHAOS. Men in suits run around like in the typical 'we have to
          leave' fashion. Soldiers on foot jump onto Humvees, accelerating
          the hell out of there. A VOICE bellows from hidden loudspeakers.

          EXT. HELICOPTER PAD � CONTINUOUS

          Standing a few yards from the landing pad, A Fed in a suit with
          badass shades, peers at the helicopter as it lands. This is

          SHIELD AGENT PHIL COULSON.

          Walking out of the helicopter is SHIELD AGENT MARIA HILL, SEXY,
          FIERCE AND DETERMINED. Following her, SHIELD DIRECTOR NICK FURY
          climbs out. Hill and Fury approach Agent Coulson.

                          NICK FURY
           How bad is it?

                       AGENT PHIL COULSON
           That's the problem, sir. We don't know.

"How can you not know?" Asked Ron Weasley, the people around him just shrugged.

          INT. FACILITY FLOOR � NIGHT
