( A/N :- I've got some news! I started writing a new fic. It's an MHA SI as Shinso Hitoshi. I've only got 2 chapters written. I plan on posting it on webnovel as soon as I've atleast written 5 more chapters.)

-------------------------------------------------------------

A few Shield vehicles were parked by the Bifrost site. Shield agents stood nearby as scientists took readings. Coulson was kneeling, examining the Bifrost Runes.

He turned to an Agent "Get somebody from Linguistics out here!" He said.

Just then, they hear a rumbling overhead, as the Bifrost storm roared in the sky above.

Coulson and the Shield agents scrambled for cover, their vehicle windshields shattering, as the Bifrost storm grew in strength.

Finally, the hole in the sky overhead opened, and the funnel cloud explodes out of it, touching down onto the desert floor.

From behind a jeep, Coulson and the Shield agents stared at The Destroyer in awe.

One of the agents still in a stupor suddenly asked " Is that one of Stark's? "

" I don't think so. But the guy doesn't tell me anything." He answered.

Coulson grabbed a megaphone and stepped forward, calling out to the Destroyer.

"Hello! You're using unregistered weapons technology. Please identify yourself!" He yelled at it.

The Destroyer powers up in response, fiery energy building up within it.

Coulson realizing it's about to attack warns the agents to escape.

A blast of energy from the Destroyer explodes a vehicle and the Shield agents start returning fire.

Getting there just in time to see the Destroyer destroy the first car.

I fly around it and throw Eldritch whips to bind it. In response, It started charging up a blast, and tore through my bindings.

"Shit!" I yell as I took on the blast head-on. The heat coming off of it was intense.

I could have dodged if I wanted, but I decided to test my Endo-Sym Vibranium armor.

The New York invasion was close, and this was my best chance to test my armor's durability.

"OOF" I grunted as the Destroyer backhanded me. I only slid a few meters backs. It seems the Gravitonium core was effective in increasing my weight.

Getting flung around in the middle of a fight was unpleasant, to say the least. Thankfully, the hit didn't hurt much, and I was successfully able to tank it.

On the street a block away from Jane's Workshop.

I could see The Warriors Three and Sif walking down the street towards the oncoming Destroyer.

Thor, Darcy, Jane, and Selvig were hiding behind a building.

"Hello. You must be Lady Sif and the Warriors Three." I say to the oncoming warriors.

"What are you?" Sif asks. Her eyes darting between me and the oncoming destroyer.

" I am human. This is just a suit of armor." I replied.

"Listen, I don't mean to be rude, but this thing is obviously too strong for you to attack head-on, so how about we team up and take it down? " I said.

" If you think you can help then do so, but I still don't trust you. The Destroyer Armor is supposedly unbeatable. No warrior has ever successfully beaten it before." She said.

They were still wary of me, but they obviously knew I was strong enough after they saw me fight it and tank a few of its hits.

My Endo-Sym Armor was surprisingly very similar in appearance to the Destroyer's Armor.

I decided to give them a sign of trust and revealed my face. Shield already knew my identity. I didn't care if Sif and the warrior three knew my face.

I was invisible the whole time, while I was in Asgard, and there was no evidence to be traced back to me.

The books' disappearance could be just blamed on Loki or the Frost Giants.

"What should we call you, fellow warrior?" Fandral asked.

I stretched out my hand and said. " Cypher, Protector of Earth. "

They were all surprised by my appearance and one of them, the fat one said.

" You're a warrior of Midgard?"

" Yes, you can call me that. I am also a direct disciple of the Ancient One." I said.

"The Ancient One!" Sif said.

I raised an eyebrow in surprise and said. " You know of her?"

"Of course we know of her, she's Midgard's Sorcerer Supreme. It's Asgard's duty to protect the nine realms. We heard legends of her feats over the centuries. She's a very powerful sorcerer." She said.

With that, we went to confront the Destroyer, Sif, and the three start walking down the street while I fly above them.

"Keep it distracted." I hear Sif tell us as she starts climbing up a building.

Fandral and Hogun Run forward and gesture to Volstagg to come forward while creating a step with their hands.

Running with all his might, Fandral and Hogun launch Volstagg at the Destroyer.

"Idiots." I mutter as Volstagg yells "FOR ASGA-" before getting swatted into a truck.

The destroyer walks up to the fallen Warrior and is about to blast him when Sif jumps from the building, stabbing her double-ended sword into the Destroyer's neck.

The light in the Destroyer's chest dissipated for a moment, almost like it had turned off before the Destroyer armor seemed to shift.

Now instead of facing downwards, it was now facing upwards and straight at Sif.

Charging up another blast, Sif barely moves in time to avoid getting blasted and quickly retreats.

The Destroyer on the other hand simply stands up and turns to face us.

I charge forward at the oncoming Destroyer. I shift my arm into a Vibranium sword and slash at the Destroyer's leg. I manage to damage it, but the cut was too shallow. It seems Vibranium alone isn't enough to damage magically charged Uru.

It kicks me away and I land on the ground next to Thor. ' Crap, I didn't get a chance to increase my weight before it kicked me.'

I was about to create a portal and see if I can sever its head. Before I could do it. I suddenly heard.

"Stay down warrior, you have done what you can!" I heard him say.

Thor walks to confront the Destroyer.

Watching what was happening, my respect for Thor went up a notch. Although I was a bit annoyed, at the end of the day it was his show.

If I got serious and defeated it, Thor won't gain his powers back.

It was only because he chose to sacrifice himself, did Odin's enchantments break and he became worthy to wield Mjolnir again.

Having them see me as an ally and a fellow warrior was enough for now.

"Brother, Whatever I have done to wrong you, whatever I have done to lead you to do this, I am truly sorry." He says. "But these people are innocent; taking their lives will gain you nothing."

With that statement, The Armor started powering up for another blast. Then Thor said the one thing that Loki never expected him to.

"So take mine… And end this."

With that, the energy died down and the faceplate reset itself.

Pausing for a second, the Armor turned away as if it was going to leave for Asgard, but in a vicious move, it turned around and backhanded Thor, still only human, into a car.

"NO!" Jane yelled as she ran over to see if Thor was alright. Lady Sif had a hand over her mouth while Fandral and Volstagg's jaws dropped.

Even Hogun the Grim had a look of surprise flash across his face.

The Destroyer looked at Thor's prone form for a moment before turning around again, this time to leave earth.

Off in the distance, though, I see Thor's hammer. I was honestly tempted to kick it away.

I was still a little sore from the shock it gave me.

' Hmm... maybe I can melt it down and turn it into a toilet after Hela breaks it.'

A hand suddenly springs up out of the car, catching Mjolnir. A bolt of lightning comes from the sky and strikes him, his flannel shirt and jeans becoming his usual armor, helmet, and cape.

I hear Jane mutter to herself, "Oh… My… God."

I chuckled a bit at the accidental pun and prepared to enjoy the show.

The Destroyer at that point turned back around at us and saw the newly powered Thor.

It started powering up another blast only for the Hammer to fly from the bolt of lightning and slam into its face, knocking the blast off course only for the hammer to come back and nail the Destroyer on the return trip, knocking it down.

Landing in Thor's hand, the lightning stopped, and Thor was revealed in all his glory.

Wearing his full armor, Hammer in hand, Thor leaps into the air and creates a tornado on top of the town.

Slowly, the Destroyer started rising into the air at the force of the winds. The Warriors Three, Sif, and I corralled Jane and company into one of the buildings and away from the flying cars.

Just as suddenly as it started, the Tornado stopped with a mighty explosion in the clouds and the falling body of the Destroyer.

///////////////////

"Donald? I don't think you've been completely honest with me."

Coulson and about a dozen other SHIELD agents stood in the middle of the town along with the Warriors Three, Sif, Jane, and the rest.

I was standing close to Sif and the Warriors Three facing the agents.

"Know this, Son of Coul. You and I, we fight for the same cause: the protection of this world. From this day forward, you can count me as your ally, if… you return the items you have taken from Jane."

"Stolen." Jane corrects him.

"Borrowed." He replies. "of course you can have your equipment back, you're going to need it to continue your research."

"Would you like to see the bridge we talked about?" I hear Thor ask Jane.

"Uh… Sure?"

With her confirmation, he grabs her and flies off.

" Well, I should get going, later." I suddenly said.

" Wait, we still have a few que..."

Coulson didn't get to finish as I ignored him and flew off. I still had a few things to take care of, and I wasn't in the mood to answer questions.

I already left a tracker on what was left of The Destroyer's armor, after Thor destroyed it.

I didn't want them to know I had it, so I decided to take it later.

Right now though, I had to get back to Asgard before Odin woke up, and Heimdall defrosted.
