## History

### Background

It all started when Loki secretly formed his own version of the Cabal which consisted of Amora the Enchantress, Skurge the Executioner, Arnim Zola, and Kang the Conqueror. He also recruited Leader to act as the false leader of the Cabal without him even knowing it. Leader then attacked the Avengers with an army of Humanoids right when they were about to save Iron Man who was stuck in the No-Tech Dimension after the events of the Ultron Revolution with help from Dr. Jane Foster who built a prototype dimensional core. Leader then stole the prototype core which stranded Iron Man in the No-Tech Dimension then he stole some Virbranium with his Humanoids from Wakanda which attracted the attention of Black Panther. While both Thor and Black Panther were able to capture him, the Cabal arrived and attacked them along with the other Avengers right when they arrived in Wakanda. The Cabal then escaped on a ship but the Avengers went after them on Black Panther's jet but when the Avengers fought off the Cabal again on their ship. The Cabal used the stuff they stole to build a weapon called the Static Expander which they tried to use on the Avengers as test subjects for it after capturing them. Black Panther tried to save them by fighting off the Cabal himself but he was outmatched so he stole the Vibranium back from the Static Expander and escaped with it. But the Cabal went after him to get the Vibranium back so Black Panther called in his own team of Avengers to save them which consisted of himself, Vision, Captain Marvel, Ms. Marvel, Ant-Man, and Wasp. The New Avengers tried their best to fight off the Cabal to try and save the Avengers but the Cabal got back the Vibranium, destroyed the Avengers' base, betrayed Leader, escaped, and used the Static Expander on the Avengers to teleport them away throughout time and space leaving only Captain America's shield and Mjolnir. The Cabal's ship was then about to crash and explode into New York City but the New Avengers managed to evacuate to safety with Leader and get the ship to crash in a safe location in the ocean. After that, the New Avengers decided to carry on the work of the missing Avengers by helping to protect the city while Dr. Jane Foster tried to find the missing Avengers by rebuilding the technology she was going to use to save Iron Man. Eventually, Jane Foster was able to locate the missing Avengers and gave the New Avengers tether bracelets to teleport them to the places the Avengers were sent to, and when the New Avengers found the missing Avengers they would use the tether to teleport back home. First, Vision and Wasp found Falcon in Future New York City which was ruled by Kang the Conqueror. Next, Ant-Man found Captain America, Hawkeye, and Black Widow in a pocket world that resembled 1930s New York City called Dimension Z which was ruled by Arnim Zola. Later, Black Panther found Hulk in the Asgardian Wilderness where he was hunted down by Skurge the Executioner. Finally, Captain Marvel and Ms. Marvel found Thor on an ice asteroid in space which was ruled by Amora the Enchantress. The New Avengers were able to defeat the Cabal, rescue the Avengers, and teleport back home to New York City but when they all arrived, Jane Foster revealed to them that the city had been turned into a cold wasteland which Thor knew was the work of Loki.

### The Battle

Both teams of Avengers decide to work together to stop Loki so they split up to help the people and find stuff that could help them save the city. But when Captain Marvel tries to fly to search the city, she is attacked by a Frost Dagon which she is able to beat with help from Captain America and Black Panther. Jane Foster reveals to them that there are Frost Dragons everywhere, patrolling the skies, keeping the people from leaving the city, and that the one they fought was just a baby. But Captain Marvel reports seeing Loki's Army grouping together in Central Park so both teams of the Avengers go there where they find Loki's ice fortress surrounded by a large ice wall that Thor breaks into using Mjolnir. The Avengers and Jane Foster then search the place for Loki and eventually find him and his army of Frost Trolls. Loki reveals to the Avengers that he had the Cabal scatter them to leave Earth defenseless for when he took it over using the Casket of Ancient Winters which he combined with his scepter. Loki then freezes both teams of the Avengers using the Casket when the New Avengers arrive and sends the Frost Trolls to attack them. But Captain Marvel breaks free, fights off the Frost Trolls, and frees the New Avengers who free the Avengers, and Jane Foster except for Hulk who is able to break free on his own. Both teams of Avengers then escape after being outnumbered and they all regroup at Jane Foster's apartment where Jane reveals to them that Loki has placed two giant stone ships at the north and south ends of the city. Thor reveals that the ships are the World Breakers and that Loki is going to use them to unleash Ragnarök and destroy Earth. Jane Foster then plans to use the device she used to find the Avengers to send Loki's Army back to Asgard but as soon as Loki sees it coming he'll activate the World Breakers. So both teams of Avengers split up into three groups with two groups to take out the World Breakers and one group to fight off Loki with Captain America leading the group with the north World Breaker, Captain Marvel leading the group with the south World Breaker and Thor leading the group for Loki. Captain America, Black Panther, Black Widow, and Falcon get to the north World Breaker, and Captain Marvel, Hawkeye, Wasp, and Hulk get to the south World Breaker. Both groups fight off the Frost Trolls on the World Breakers and defeat them but then they both fight off two Destroyers. Thor, Vision, Ant-Man, and Ms. Marvel go back to Loki's fortress to face him but Loki uses his scepter to take control of Vision and has him attack the others. They try fighting off both Vison and Loki but Loki makes copies of himself to confuse Thor and then activates the World Breakers. Jane Foster tells the Avengers to stop the World Breakers from meeting up over the city or they'll release an energy pulse that will destroy the Earth so both Captain America and Captain Marvel's team of Avengers take control of the World Breakers and divert them over the ocean. Meanwhile, during the fight with Loki, Vision takes Mjolnir and Loki orders him to use it against Thor but he soon realizes that since Vision is holding Mjolnir he isn't under his control. Vison then knocks out Loki with Mjolnir and reveals that he was just pretending to be mind-controlled which was part of Thor and Vision's plan to stop him. Soon the other Avengers destroy the World Breakers by using the Destroyers which makes the pieces of the World Breakers fall into the ocean. Then Jane Foster activates her machine which opens a portal that sucks up all the Frost Trolls and Frost Dragons back to Asgard and puts an end to the eternal winter on New York City city.

### Aftermath

With Loki and his army defeated and the Avengers all reunited and back home, everything returns to normal. Loki is also imprisoned in the Avenger's newly rebuilt base who still vows to destroy Earth. But Loki would eventually help the Avengers out as one of them in the Secret Wars where the Avengers would also reunite with Iron Man.
