Just before I was about to send all of them on their respective endeavours, I heard the revving of a motorbike.

"Any orders for me, your highness or am I too late to help my sister?", A gruff voice asked. Bruce Banner had just arrived on the scene. My brother, had just arrived on the scene. I permitted a grin to make its way onto my lips.

"You know, when we were younger you used to give me the lecture about being punctual but now, the tables seemed to have turned, beloved brother, isn't it Ratri?" I said folding my arms in front of me. She roared lowly to agree with my statement. The man with brown eyes chuckled at my conduct.

"This looks bad.", He commented.

"And I thought you were a genius.", I said under my breath, patting Ratri's head. The assassin clad in black glared at me which I returned graciously while Ratri barred her teeth and roared at her.

"I have seen worse.", She responded turning her head away.

"I am sorry.", He replied looking at all of us. I looked at the ground once before looking at the scientist in front of me.

"Don't be. Actually we could use a little worse.", I said.

"What happened?", Iron Man asked.

Steve, with a dejected face replied, "He came. Just like you said he would."

"Then tell him to suit up. I am bringing the party to you.", The other replied. We looked behind us and saw a huge Chitauri worm trailing behind Tony. Ratri gave me a look like How is that a party? which was voiced by Romanoff seconds after.

"I--I don't see how that's a party.", She said with a question mark evident on her facial expressions. Bruce started walking away and I didn't react much because I knew exactly what he was about to do. But Captain America was in distress.

"Dr. Banner!", He called. "It might be a really good time to get angry." I laughed looking down and if a tigress could smile, Ratri was smiling. Everyone in the whole world wondered how my brother used to control his anger. He had a secret.

"That's my secret, Captain. I am always angry." With that, he unleashed the Hulk who very skillfully smashed an oncoming Chitauri worm like creature.

I smirked looking at it coming down.

"Tony, together?", I asked the man in the metal suit hovering above.

"I thought you'd never ask! Hold on.", He replied.

"Ratri duck!", I commanded to my tigress. She quickly went and took shelter under Cap's shield along with Natasha. Tony fired bullets, while I worked on balling up the metal tail of the creature, shielding myself from the ablaze pieces with a solid barrier of water.

Once the worm was nothing but a big metal ball I spoke into my com.

"Raghav, Sri, I hope the both of you have maintained altitude?"

"Yes your highness.", They replied in sync. I levitated the now debris upwards and turned it into dust with some more pressure before dumping it on top of an already evacuated building's terrace.

"One less thing to worry about.", I stated as I felt sweat trickle down my forehead. I then turned to face them. "Alright everyone. You know your responsibilities. Go on and fulfill them." I looked up at the sky and saw that my air force had already divided themselves into the groups I had assigned them.
