Went through and revised a few things on this chapter hope you like!
Well hello there fans of Avengers fanfics! So lately I've been scrolling through Facebook and I keep on seeing random Avengers videos- fight scenes serious scenes and such, so there's been this little voice in my head telling me that there's a story here. With reading some of the other Clint/OC stories and Bruce/Natasha fics- I have totally been inspired! This story has inspirations from Inuyasha in the mythical demons but its been modified a bit- you will find no Inuyasha characters here, I had thought about doing a crossover but the character in my mind was just gnawing at me far too much to keep her locked up, this will be a Clint/OC fic with lots of cameos from Natasha/Bruce, Pepper/Tony, and eventual other couples too as I dream them up.
This will be considered an AU story.
BIG BIG THANKS TO DrRJSB, thank you so so much for answering all my pms and reading my rough drafts!! I get so insecure about my ideas so thank you for your reassurance and advice!!!!
Please please please, let me know what you all think, comments critiques anything!
So without further rambling from me- here it goes!
SHIELD HEADQUARTERS
6 MONTHS BEFORE THE FIRST MARVEL MOVIE
"Hey pirate Pete! Would you just get to the point already, the dramatic pauses are getting extremely old." Tony exclaimed in his usual uppity intellectual tone, earning himself a strong glare from Fury's good eye.
"What? You know I'm right." He sat back and crossed his arms as he was miffed that all he was met with were eye-rolls instead of nods of agreement from Steve, Clint and Natasha all sitting at the round table.
"Fine Mr. Stark, now without any further interruptions - I've asked you all here because I need your help, an entire species is about to be wiped out." The severity of the situation and the seriousness in Fury's voice was just about to take another hit thanks to the comedian sitting at the table.
"Did we really get called in here to be sent on a mission for the World Wildlife Relief?" Natasha picked up her briefing packet and smacked Tony upside the head with it, only causing him to laugh harder at his own joke.
"Alright- alright! I'll behave." He through his hands up, surrendering any other jokes that were threatening to become word vomit.
"Let me rephrase then, an entire race….15 years ago I had the privilege of meeting some of the most powerful beings on this earth…..wolf demons." He paused stepping to the side of the screen behind him, stepped aside to show a picture of a gigantic black wolf, with grayish blue eyes and a crescent moon colored in white a couple inches above the in between of his eyes, just as Tony was about to go in for the kill with the werewolf jokes, Natasha brandished her packet once again hitting him upside the head.
"Do not mistake these beings for the mythical creatures known as werewolves. They surpass these myth in every way possible- having two forms to their existence, their wolf form here, and their human form." The computer then showed a video of that same wolf from the picture phasing back into a his human form, a man who looked to be no older than thirty standing there in all his muscular glory….giving truth to the phrase – tall, dark and handsome.
"Immortal lifespans, immune to all forms of diseased, unaffected to any kind of man made poison, superhuman healing abilities, flight, teleportation, generation of lightning, absorption of energy and the redistribution of it. All five senses heightened beyond human belief, superhuman speed, strength, durability and reflexes…..they are the ultimate soldier." Everyone in the room, save for Natasha watched in awe as every single ability and power was demonstrated by this being as Fury listed each off.
"Adrian Cortez and his family are the last surviving pack in existence, in the last two years their kind have been vanishing, no rhyme or reason…all just gone ." Natasha's brows furrowed, having personally met Adrian and one of his own over the last couple of years, confusion set in as she was in awe at this new information.
"We pulled them out of Mexico two years ago when the vanishings started, moved them around a bit as to not arouse any suspicion- their currently in a safe house in Galicia, Spain….. I am asking your help in getting them to the next safe house." Finally severity took over the room as even Tony decided to hold off anymore smart-ass remarks.
Before anyone could reply to Fury's pleas, a notification flashed onto the screen, video chat request.
"Agent Coulson what the hell is the meaning of this?" Fury referred to the fact that there a foreign server attempting to make contact with SHIELD's impenetrable mainframe.
"Sir it's a distress call from Galicia." Phil said with a grim look on his face, Fury's eye went wide with fear as he hoped that the worst wasn't coming true.
"Answer it now." As soon as the the call went through a familiar face to Fury and Natasha appeared onto the screen.
"Aurora?" Natasha whispered as she saw the distressed look on the girl's face.
"Uncle Nick! We're under attack!" She yelled into the screen as she saw familiar and unfamiliar face pop onto the screen – not caring who heard her, again, confusion set in everyone's expressions as they heard the words 'Uncle Nick' uttered by this girl, well everyone except for Natasha.
"Aurora- talk to me, what's going on?" Fury asked frantically.
"They came out of nowhere, hundreds of them! Dad sent me to the control room to send out a distress call and he locked me in here, No puedo sailor me (I can't get out!)!" She faced the computer screen to the live video feed of an alien invasion attacking, some on foot, dressed in what looked to be like suits of armor – only with an out of this world type of twist considering they weren't from this world, some on foot- some riding on hover crafts, making the most powerful beings on earth seem as if they actually had a chance of being wiped out.
"Someone opened up a portal, him- he an- and they came pouring out- he called them the Chitauri." She zoomed the computer in on a man suited in black armor, long black hair crowning his pale face as he ran at her loved ones with a black scepter that was glowing blue on the end.
"We're leaving now Aurora – stay in the control room." She furrowed her brows in anger, tears threatening to fall from her cheeks.
"Estas loco? They've taken out mom, Axel and Lucia, there's no way I'm letting them take anyone else." She said with such anger in her voice, almost to the point of losing control, she turned to look at the seemingly impenetrable door for a moment to decide where to strike. Turning back to look at the computer screen, both fear an anger flashed through her brown eyes as she truly thought this would be the last time she would get to see her Uncle and friend, those brown eyes turning to luminous blue, saying goodbye with a single stare.
She turned back to the door, an inhumane growl emitting from her belly, rising in volume as she gathered up all of her strength the growl turned into a scream as she struck the door, knocking it off of its support panels, tiny diamond shards flying from every direction as they saw to what lengths Adrián was willing to go to to keep her safe….. they just couldn't figure out why only her.
The last thing they heard on the video call was the blood curdling roar of Aurora as she phased into her wolf form.
"Dammit." Fury exclaimed as the call lost signal, Fury turned to see his audience standing up, evident that the video call had set a fire in each of them, he didn't have to ask what their answers to his pleas.
"Agents suit up- wheels up in twenty." He demanded as everyone in the room dispersed to find and change into their suits.
It didn't take long for each of them to ready themselves for what looked to be like an outright war, the picture in their minds of Aurora- this beautiful being, curly hair black as night, tan skin like her father, and chocolate brown eyes that turned blue as she readied herself for battle engrained in their brain as the hero in them were eager to do their thing.
Thanks to the advanced technology and advanced minds at SHEILD and not to mention about a hundred other agents hauling ass to get a jet packed and ready for a mission of this magnitude, they were ready and 'wheels up' in less than an hour.
Natasha and Clint partnered up in piloting this big excursion, traveling at the highest speeds possible to get to their destination.
"Do you know that woman?" Clint asked.
"Yes."
"What's with the whole Uncle thing?" He continued for his curiosity's sake, treading carefully hoping that he wasn't prying into classified territories.
"Adrian is an old friend of Fury's, SHEILD has been ensuring the protection of their kind, he's not usually one to get personal with these situations but Adrian and his daughter Aurora were the only ones willing to let us do research on them- show that they aren't a threat to mankind." She explained.
"Well taking account the long list of ways they could be…they kind of are." Clint's mind was running wild with the proof in the videos that they were just shown.
"Clint- these people have been around for thousands of years, living at peace with humans. Don't you think if they were any kind of threat they'd have wiped us out by now and taken over the world?" He nodded in agreement, feeling a bit bad for being so judgmental of people he didn't even know.
"Besides- I owe her…..back when I was first recruited, a mission in Mexico went south, Aurora didn't hesitate to bust in and save my ass when Fury called in a favor." Clint looked over at Natasha, he was taken back by the subtle emotion on her face, she was never the one to make any kind of mission in her life personal; he made it a priority to make this one personal as well considering this woman Natasha was speaking so highly of, saved his best friend's life.
The rest of the flight there was in silence as they flew fast and hard to the inevitable, knowing that by the time they got there, there would be little to no survivors, Tony did the math in his head as to how many they had already lost when she had made contact, calculating that by the time they got there they would already be gone.
It was the fight in her eyes that drove them all.
A/N:Aurora's inner demon/beast speaks separate from her, kind of like the way the hulk talks to Bruce banner. So anything that her inner 'self' speaks will be in italics.
She nicknames her inner voice Aura.
Two hours later they finally arrived to the battlefield, landing the jet a few hundred yards away from the masses they treaded with caution as they approached what looked to be an execution.
"NO! Don't! Take me instead!" Aurora pleaded with tears in her eyes as she was being restrained by two large aliens, the man that she spoke of over the video call clutching her father with force as he gripped the knife shaped part of his scepter against her father's back.
"Tugs at the heartstrings that one so young would give her life for her father." The man with a British accent said with a fake tone of sentiment, hearing others approach they turned their heads to see the Avengers approaching with caution as they entered the danger zone.
"Oh look your back up has arrived."
'Oh thanks captain obvious, anything else we need narrated?' Auroras inner demon growled within, trying to keep her cool.
"A little too late I'm afraid….as to your request young lady- I think I shall take both." He said with an evil grin as he stabbed his scepter into her fathers back so that it was all the way through.
'Papà.' She yelled within as the piece of metal was thrusted through his body, knowing what was going to come next.
"No." She whimpered out, knees threatening to buckle beneath her.
Adrian gave his daughter one last look before turning to Nick and his team of renegades.
"Nick…. take care of my daughter." His Spanish accented voice echoed through the valley, as he grabbed the glowing part of the scepter and smashed it before slowly fading away.
Aurora let out a heartbreaking scream as she struggled against the soldiers restraining her, watching as the remaining member of her pack started to fade away, just like the others, this bought them enough time for the portal that the man opened to start to shut, not having enough time do anything other than shout.
Fury closed his eye and let his head hang for a moment as his friend faded away, everyone's hear broke for Aurora in that moment as she was forced to watch her father make his last attempt to keep her safe – and then just fade away.
"Kill the girl! Kill them all!" He shouted as he went through the portal, letting two more leviathans filled with more soldiers to finish them off, come down through the portal before it finally closed.
Wanting desperately to just let herself be killed off by the army, Aurora knew she had no choice but to suck it up and fight for the souls that came to her and her family's rescue.
'Look I know what just happened but we need to get ourself together – no dejes que seá por nada– ya a luchar! (Don't let it be for nothing. Now fight!)!' Aura urged her to use her grief for fuel.
She let out another deafening scream as she flipped her body twisting in the air so that she was now behind the ones restraining her, not caring that her she had stupidly chosen to wear a body-con dress with a suede moto jacket and thigh high heeled boots in the least bit she continued being her bad ass self as she readied herself for a fight, gripping onto their arms and ripping them off, and that's what started the second fight, with a roar from the alien invasion about to attack.
'Really hope you didn't just flash your Brittney to everyone.' Aurora immediately looked down to make sure that her skirt wasn't at her waist.
'Psych.'
Turning her head to look at her Uncle and his agents about to be ambushed, she closed her eyes and teleported herself right in front of them phasing into her wolf form as she landed, her form had pure white fur, the same glowing blue eyes as before she phases, and that same crescent moon on her forehead – only hers was black.
Ferocious growls dropped from her jaws, snapping and tearing apart anything that tried to go near the group, she ripped through the first row of aliens coming for the kill with her teeth, dead set on not seeing anymore death or fading away from people that she cared about.
Tony following her lead with his own series of attacks by firing off multiple rounds at the next row coming in.
She phased back once they had pushed the enemy back enough so they could quickly come up with a plan for how to take down the rest of the invasion, walking back towards the rest of the team finishing up firing their first rounds. Natasha nodded at the girl approaching them, trying not to show any signs of sympathy as she knew that it wasn't what Aurora needed at the moment.
"Got an extra ear piece?" She asked her Spanish accent being slightly less perdominant as the man that had just faded away. She walked right up to Natasha, keeping her voice as emotionless as possible not wanting to completely lose her nerve in front of so many new faces, she nodded and handed her an ear piece, as soon as she slipped it inside her ear.
"Any advice for taking these guys down?" Fury asked.
"They seem to have the same fatal zones as humans do, a gunshot to the head or arrow through the chest should suffice." She said as she looked at all the unfamiliar faces surrounding her, until her gaze was met with that of Clint.
'Well hello there…..who is that sexy looking human over there?' Aurora quickly averted her eyes.
'Down girl.' Aurora demanded regaining back composure of herself.
Veering over at Captain America, eyeing his shield remembering the stories over the years of his heroics, hopeful that the team surrounding her would make a difference in this doom filled battle.
"Hey Ironman- think you can help me take down that thing flying around?" She asked as he landed back down with the group.
"Not impossible." Tony answered.
"Need a lift?"
"No gracias." Aurora smirked at the metal man before her, letting the r in the sentence roll off her tongue before pushing off the ground and flying up towards a giant with great speed.
"You weren't kidding black beard."
"Perfect soldier." Fury finished cocking his gun, hearing them over the com, Aurora couldn't help but chuckle at Tony's joke towards her uncle.
Shaking off the humor she headed straight for the head of the leviathan carrying hundreds more Chitauri down to them, moving down towards the creatures mouth she pried it open with her arms and legs stretching out so it was fully open.
"Alright tin man, light her up!" She ordered watching as Tony had caught up to her.
"You sure?" He asked worried that she would be affected by the blast, she gave him a reassuring nod as he raised his arm to fire two missiles into the creatures mouth, just as the blasts started she teleported away from the blast.
While Tony and Aurora were having their fun mid air, they were caught off guard as they saw Clint and Natasha each riding on a Chitauri hover crafts shooting at them from above, Natasha flew past Aurora with a small smile on her face.
"Couldn't let you have all the fun now could I?" Aurora shook her head and smiled as she and Tony flew towards the second creature in the hopes of ending this quickly.
Before she could reach the next creature flying around, she heard a blast and a gasp come from behind her as she saw Natasha be thrown from her hover craft – falling from the sky.
Aurora shot over to her in the blink of an eye, catching her in mid air.
"Te aggare!" (Gotcha!)
"Nice save."
"I've got an idea- grab onto my back!" Aurora smiled as she figured two heads would be better than one in this situation, she continued to head towards the ground.
"Why?" Natasha asked concerned that she was just about to be pulled into a half baked plan.
"Get ready to put the dukes up when we land!" Aurora said before phasing back into her wolf form just as they landed on the ground, Natasha did as she was told pulling out her guns, firing at the large group of Chitauri before the as Aurora tore through them with her mouth.
'Oh yeah- girls RULE!'
Once they had their location filled with corpses of the Chitauri kind – Natasha hopped off the giant wolf that she had been currently using as the ultimate steed, Aurora phased back to her normal self, she an Natasha shared a victory fist bump, before running back to where the rest of the group was fighting their own good fight.
"I could use a little help over here, I got shot down and they're cornering me." Clint grunted over the com as he shot as many exploding arrows trying to ward them off.
"What's your location?" Both Natasha and Aurora stopped dead in their tracks as they looked around for any signs of a crash.
"Side of the house." Natasha was about to break into a sprint.
"Help them." Aurora pointed towards the others before she closed her eyes and teleported herself to the terrace, when she opened her eyes she was standing right next to Clint who was being cornered into the brick wall of her house, she quickly moved to shield him from anymore lasers being fired his way, she closed her eyes as the painful burns from the lasers etched into her skin, absorbing each shot before finally shooting it back out of her hands- killing those in the ambush.
She turned to look at the man she had pressed lightly against the wall to find that he had been shot in the neck and was bleeding profusely, a gasp escaped her lips, eyes widening as she heard another ambush heading their way.
Picking him up by his side she quickly flew them up to the roof, sitting him up against the wall, they sat so she could look at the damage and see to it that he would be healed, biting her lip she looked him in the eye, pleading with him to hang on- and letting him know that it was going to be alright.
"Move your hand." She said softly.
"I'm bleeding out…. I can't…" He grunted out, looking into the eyes of the woman before him, eased him into thinking that he was going to be alright, a façade put up he thought to himself, those chocolate brown eyes that he remembered from her video call once again turned blue as she moved her face closer to his.
"What's going on?' Natasha asked frantically as fear set in for her best friend as she fought yards away.
"Trust me." She whispered, moving his hand out of the way and tearing through his suit to get to the wound she pushed her face against his skin, sliding her tongue along the gash sealing it closed along the way; Clint's breathing began to turn shaky as the pain from the wound was beginning to be too much for him to bear, despite the fact that his flesh was knitting back together under Auroras mouth.
The pain slowly started to lessen, not to mention the manner in which this situation was being handled, started to spark even the slightest flame of pleasure within him.
'Mmmmh- he is totally enjoying this.' She said inside Aurora's mind, giving out a nice pleasured moan herself…..within the privacy of her mind of course.
Aurora's nose was filled with his scent, the cool air at night, just after a rainstorm, something simple…. But powerful to her nose, a scent that made her feel calm and serene despite all the chaos going on around them, despite him being a mere mortal compared to her, the scent produced by this human made her feel safe.
Pulling away and inspecting his shoulder still she saw that her work was just about done, she noticed all the blood covering his suit and her once white dress, she opened her mouth once again, only this time bringing her wrist to her mouth slicing it open with her fangs.
"Your going to have to trust me again." She whispered.
"Drink." She said bringing her wrist to his mouth, he looked at her as if she had gone mad, but then again he had no choice as the affects of so much blood loss were sinking in.
He looked into her eyes as he opened his mouth, trying to not look completely disgusted, he drank, not completely hating it as much as he thought he would, Aurora panted as the feeling of Clint's mouth on her wrist, the feel of his soft lips and with that intoxicating scent of his- she was starting to feel drunk.
Their eyes met as he finished her command, brown eyes with copper flecks burning into his as he gulped down the last metallic drop of the blood she had given him.
"Rest." She commanded in a soft voice, leaving the dazed archer to recover.
Thunder crackled in the sky, rain threatening to spill from the clouds as a storm was about to set in. Aurora turned to look at everyone fighting still on that battlefield, she furrowed her brows, having had enough of seeing these people put themselves in harms way, she got up and marched to the highest point of the roof, climbing on top of a wall to overlook each and every alien.
Clint watched in awe as she got up from the ground, the wind blowing the loose hairs framing her face around along with her pony tail, a look of determination on her face, cursing himself for having judged her kind not even hours before meeting her.
"Terminemos esto. (Let's finish this)" She and Aura spoke as one through a growl, breathing in cool stormy air as she felt the electricity build up in the clouds, readying herself she put her hands up, and as soon as the first flash of lightning struck, she split it into hundreds of strikes, making sure to hit each and every last Chitauri solider dead.
Exhausted from harnessing so much power at once, she panted heavily, smiling at their victory, before feeling dizziness set in heavily, she fell back, expecting to land on the cobblestones from the rooftop patio, instead she fell back into a strong pair of arms that held her close to him as he whispered.
"Thank you."
And there we have it – the first chapter to Alpha and the Avengers! I know it was a dramatic start to this story, but the way I dreamt this one up- there was no way around it. Really hope you guys liked this one!! For you Brutasha fans – don't worry- the cameos will come eventually I promise!!
I really wanted to add that Latina spice to Aurora's character with the Spanish. Hope you like!
