Okay, so this is my first story about the Avengers. I have another story about Thor and Loki somewhere on this site, but that could be left for another day and on the other account. Well, first of all, I wouldn't have had the courage to post this story without the help of my best friend, Razz. We both thought this up, and I'm writing it out, or typing it out, whatever you want to call it. This is all about Bruce Banner, because we both love him and think that he deserves a little attention. I hope you like it! Please enjoy! This story takes place post-Avengers.
Prologue
The Gamma Bomb…
"Bruce, all systems seem stable." Betty's voice cut through Bruce's concentration. He looked up, her beautiful face shining with excitement. Despite the solemn fact that their entire research was turned into that of a military project, Bruce found himself smiling softly.
Something seemed off…
"Betty…!" Bruce's cry was drowned in the wailing of the alarm. She had been pulled into the throng of fleeing bodies, his fingers barely brushing her shoulder before Betty was lost to him in the wave.
The accident…
Bruce frantically reached for the computers. He could stop it…he had to. Bruce hurriedly scanned the screen, his heart racing as his fingers typed away, his hope slipping by the second.
"It's too unstable…" He whispered to himself. Bruce realized, in that moment, that he wasn't going to escape alive…
The wailing alarm pounded his ears as his heart beat furiously against his chest. He felt the heat radiating off of the machine, hitting him as he threw his arms over his face, but he knew he would perish.
Betty…
Blood…
Her blood tainted the earth…
Her blood on his hands…
…
Their love was like a miracle, only getting better over the short months they were together. Climbing. Higher and higher, until they had reached the highest mountain peak, and soared beyond, into a midnight sky lit by scores of stars.
The memory tore at him. A sound was wrenched from his lips that was both animal and human. And then he cried out her name as he felt himself shattering, splintering into a million pieces. They had touched a light more radiant than the sun…but the only company he had left…
…was that of a monster…
There you go! That's just the opening prologue! The next chapter will be up soon after my friend Razz takes a look at it. See you later!
