He recognized the Black Order instantly. The line up was a little different than the one from his universe, yet they had razed and destroyed countless of planets in dozens of systems. Their reputation proceeded themselves and he did not doubt for one moment that they would be just as formidable in this universe. [color=d86615]"Go to Helheim."[/color] His cousin was supposedly dead in this dimension, though he didn't buy it. Hel was like her father, Loki - a survivor. Strange produced his sling ring, opening a portal in front of him to HM Prison in Cardiff. He stumbled, barely able to concentrate as Supergiant put him under a psychic assault. The Sorcerer Supreme groaned, hardly capable of resisting the commands to surrender. [color=53A981]"Go,"[/color] he grunted to the others painfully. [color=53A981]"I don't know how much longer I can hold this."[/color] A strange sort of light was draining from Strange's mind and going into Supergiant, resembling how a dementor would feed in the Harry Potter films. [i]"Stop resisting,"[/i] Supergiant prompted. Her eyes then flashed dangerously. [i]"Activate the bombs."[/i] Blood was trickling from Strange's nose and eyes. Bonnie jumped through the portal, knowing that she had been assigned to go after Thane and secure him. She knew how to fight, yet she didn't have any powers. There wasn't much she could do against the Black Order with just knives. She didn't need to know their powers and abilities in order to realize that, especially after one of them backhanded Oliver and flung him across the room like he was nothing. Black Dwarf had taken the most hits so far of the Black Order, blood oozing from both of his eyes. He was completely blind now, yet that made him no less formidable an opponent. He heard Maria call out her taunts and he rushed in her direction, each of his steps leaving a small crater in the ground in the shape of his foot. He swung his double bladed battle axe - a weapon easily bigger than Maria herself - and missed, the blades going right over Maria's head. "Come out and fight, little girl!!!" Black Dwarf sneered. Ebony Maw was writhing on the ground, yet managed to use his telekinesis to fling the batons off of him, allowing his impromptu shock therapy to cease. A master tactician, he had heard Tempest exclaim about Thane di Angelo and his location. [i]Thane[/i]. His master's son. The one prophesied to kill Thanos. He was here on Terra - and it didn't take much for him to guess he would be on the other end of the portal the wizard produced. "Thanos thanks you for your service," he taunted Tempest, before diving through the portal. Raynor tried to blast him with light to stop him, but his strike missed. Corvus Glaive smiled wickedly. The glaive he used, for which he was named, looked like it was crafted out of both gold and bone. Anyone who looked at it would come to the startling realization that it was most likely forged from the bones of someone he had defeated, someone he had murdered in brutal combat. The air around Corvus Glaive seemed to vibrate for a moment, before in a [i]flash[/i] he dashed into the portal, following Ebony Maw and Bonnie. Like Luminous, he was graced with the gift of superspeed. Proxima Midnight flicked her staff. It had been crafted by Thanos, created from a star that had been trapped in a quantum singularity. She stared at Raynor, judging the Asgardian to be the only worthy opponent for her there. Supergiant had the wizard battling his own mind and Black Dwarf, while blinded, was drawing most of the attention of the feeble Terrans. [color=d86615]"One on one?"[/color] Raynor scoffed, drawing Lyting. His grandmother, the Queen of Witches, had gifted him the dagger. It always returned to his hand. "Such a puny weapon for a god," Proxima scoffed. She dashed forward faster than the eye could see, [i]another[/i] speedster amongst the Black Order, and struck with her spear. Raynor blasted upwards with light, forming a makeshift shield that managed to stay her blade. He forced her spear back and Raynor stabbed at her with Lyting, yet Proxima was too quick for him. She dodged. He blasted with light again, only for Proxima Midnight to appear behind him with ease, her spear at his throat. "Do not feel sorrow, Asgardian. Your mistake was choosing such feeble allies." Proxima Midnight thrusted her spear through Raynor's neck. The Asgardian gasped for air, choking on his own blood. He stabbed Proxima Midnight in the gut with Lyting, before falling to the ground, struggling to hold onto life.

She was in the parking lot outside of an impressive prison complex. Tall fences surrounded all of the stone buildings. There were so many windows that for a brief moment, it reminded her of a residence hall at a university for undergraduates. That illusion was ruined though by the armed guards that patrolled the area and the watchtower, as well as the many signs in the parking lot reminding visitors of the rules for a Category B prison. She spun around, hearing two others charge through the portal - Ebony Maw and Corvus Glaive. None of her teammates had come through yet. It was just her, standing between two homicidal aliens and a (innocent?) criminal named Thane, locked up somewhere in the prison behind them. She only had four knives on her, all of them designed for throwing. Her odds in this fight were not good. But she hadn't joined S.H.I.E.L.D. expecting life to be easy. [color=f6989d]"Stand down,"[/color] Bonnie warned. She twirled two of her throwing knives, the other two still secured to the exterior of her suit. Ebony Maw laughed. Corvus Glaive followed his lead. The two of them advanced, seeing no threat from a small, weak little Terran. "I beg your pardon, girl?" Ebony Maw asked. [color=f6989d]"Stand down and I'll let you live,"[/color] Bonnie told them. Her voice was steel. She should have been terrified out of her mind, yet she had never felt calmer. If this was how her life ended, so be it. She wasn't going to be scared. A flickering grey aura had gathered around her, unnoticed by the S.H.I.E.L.D. agent. "If you wish to die in the name of Thanos so dearly, then who are we to refuse your wish?" Ebony Maw asked, before nodding at Corvus. "Attend to her. I shall find Thane." She threw a blade at Ebony Maw, aiming for his head, yet he deflected it telekinetically and the knife clattered to the ground, useless. She dashed towards Maw, doing a cartwheel and was about to kick him in the head, when she was seized from behind. Corvus Glaive had grabbed her and lifted her up into the air, his hand curled around her neck. "Goodbye, girl," he sneered, before snapping her neck. Or at least, he [i]tried[/i] to. The grey aura became stronger, somehow preventing Corvus Glaive from killing Bonnie. An image flashed in her mind briefly. An olive tree with an owl sitting on the top branch, followed by a haunting voice: [i]"I have chosen."[/i] "Why won't you die?!" Corvus screamed. Filled with strength she didn't know she had, Bonnie thrusted her hips up, wrapping her legs around Corvus Glaive's head. She stabbed him in the eye with her blade and he screamed in pain. Ebony Maw just turned his head, looking at the two. "Curious..."
