Stark is a Mutant. No, not genuis, billionaire playboy philanthropist Tony Stark! But his less famous baby sister by 10 years Alina Elizabeth Stark. She is quite a powerful mutant according to Professor Xavier. The only thing she lacks is discipline and a goal, must be a Stark thing.
Once she finished her training she immediately returned home to Tony. Stating that they were too stiff at the school. Too many rules and the last thing Alina wanted to do was play hero. Boy was she in for a surpise. But at home she got to play around with Tony as they always had. Best of all she now had her powers under control.
What were her powers you ask? Well, she is what is known as a level 5 Mutant. One of the most powerful. She is an Elemental. She can control the elements. Like earth, air, water, fire, and metal. The purest form of earth. And blood but that's kind of creepy so she doesn't like to use it. She can also teleport, and has a healing factor.
Tony and Alina like to mess around with her powers just to see how far they can go. But Tony isn't stupid, when they do he always puts a communicator on her and a tracking device just in has always had this fear she'll teleport somewhere too far for him to get to.
One day after watching the Battle of The Five Armies and Alina had stopped crying over Thorin's death. Tony posed a question. "If you could teleport to Middle Earth and stop Thorin's death would you?" The other Avengers threw popcorn at Tony. "That's a stupid question Tony. 1 Middle Earth doesn't exist. And 2, we all know Alina would do it in a heart beat." Natasha said about her best friend giving her wink. Alina huffed, but she knew it was true. Alina was so in love with the character of Thorin Oakenshield. She'd do anything to stop it.
"Okay then let's try it." Tony said clapping his hands together with a mischiveious grin."You're serious, you want to try this? Alina asked. Tony shrugged. "What have we got to lose. The worst that can happen is that you teleport right back here. The best it work, you prove Middle Earth exist. You come back, we all go and save the day. Alina looked at Tony then shrugged. "I'm game, let's do it." Bruce being the voice of reason. "Have you guys even thought of the consequences? The Starks answer at the same time. "What consequences?" Bruce takes off his glasses and rubs his face. "The fact that you may not be able to come home, genuis." They answer again "Nah, it'll be fine." With a smug look on their faces."Okay enough chit - chat let's do it to it. Tony said all excited
Alina prepared herself by concentrating on Middle Earth. on how it looks. Specifically Rivendell and getting there before the dwarves. How it looks according to the movies and the painting she has seen. In the meantime, Tony got a tracking device and an interdemensional communicator that he uses for Thor ready and gave it to Alina. "Just in case" Tony said as he gave them to his baby sister. All the Avengers gathered around to watch. Alina closed her eyes and said. "See you guys later." With a flash of light she was gone. "What happened?" Asked Clint. "I don't know the flash of light was something new, Jarvis track my sister." Tony said rather calmly. Javis came back."I'm sorry sir, but I can not locate Miss. Stark anywhere, on this planet." Tony was stunned "Holy shit, it work! It really work. Jarvis get the interdemensional communicator up."
Alina opened her eyes, that white light had been blinding. When her eyesight cleared she found herself standing outside the gates of Rivendell. "Holy shit, it really worked. At that precise moment the communicator goes off. "Tony it worked I am outside the gates of Rivendell." Tony's mouth falls open " No freakin way? That is just too cool, okay Honey Bunny come back." Alina tried to teleport, but she can't. It seems that she has used up too much power. "Tony, I can't I'm out of juice. Looks like I'm trapped here for a bit, until I recharge at least." Tony started to panic. Alina could hear in his voice. "Please don't worry Tony. I can take care of myself. After all I am a level 5 Mutant and I do have healing factor. I'll be fine, oh hey I got to go someone is coming to the gate."
As Alina disconnect her call with Tony. Someone indeed did show up at the gate. "Welcome to Rivendell. I am Lindir, My Lord Elrond has been expecting you. Let me show you to his study." Alina was taken aback in utter shock. How could this Elf be expecting her? That just wasn't possible. But then again a few minutes ago she thought Middle Earth didn't exist. She guessed anything was possible.
Alina followed the tall Elf. She had to almost jog to keep up with him. Lindir noticed and adjusted his stride accordingly. Once they reached Lord Elrond study, he bid her to take a seat Lord Elrond would be in shortly. She did not wait long for Lord Elrond to come gliding into the room and sat down opposit her."Ah young lady you have finally arrived. Frankly you are overdue I expected you her 5 days ago." Alina had a bewildered look on her face. "how is that possible? My brother and I only thought up this trick today. How did you know I was coming? Lord Elrond smiled at Alina. "I sometimes get glimpses of the future through dreams. Though I must say this one was a little more specific." Alina raised an eyebrow. "Like what did you see?" Lord Elrond templed his fingers "I saw that your name is Stark, that you come from another world. That you came her to stop a tragedy that will befall the line of Durin. And that you are not human." Alina swallowed back a little bile that had risen to her throat. How could one person know so much about her. "Well I guess you pretty much know everything." He gave her a nod."Not everything. I don't know your name for instance and I don't know why you are not human. You are not an Elf and you are certainly not a Dwarf. Are you Istari?
Alina laughed at the mention of these things. "No, I am none of those things, but first my name is Alina Stark, younger sister to Tony Stark. Now to answer your question, I am what is called in my world a Mutant." Lord Elrond gave her a questioning look. Alina explained further. "A Mutant is a person that is born with something extra inside them that causes them to develope some form of powers or may cause them to look different. Usually their powers don't manifest themself until they hit puberty, sometimes as early as ten. But in my case since I am considered extremely intelligent I developed them at five years old. Later on developed others.
Lord Elrond looked very impressed Alina." What are these gifts that you have?" "The easiest one I can show you is the healing factor. I can heal from any wound. Basically I can't die. I'll show you how quickly I heal. may I borrow your dagger?" Lord Elrond gave his dagger to her and she immediately slammed it all the way through her forearm until it stuck out the other side. Lord Elrond was in shock. She then pulled out with some difficulty. But as soon as it was out the wound healed with no scar. Lord Elrond grabbed her arm to examine it."That is absolutely amazing. What other gifts do you have?" Alina stood up. "The other ones would be best if I show you outside.
They went to a garden that had a small pond nearby and Alina look up at Lord Elrond and told him. "You may want to stay behind me for this one. This power is my main power. The one I use to fight with when neccesary. I'm called an elemental. I can control earth, air, water, fire, and metal. Let me demonstrate." She immediately stomped her foot and a large chunk of earth came out of the ground floating in midair. Using the water from the pond as a whip, she cut the boulder in half. Place the two halves back on the hole she ran her foot over it and it was like it had never happened. Then she threw a fire ball at one of the statues setting it ablaze. Using the wind, She blew it out. Finally she ask Lord Elrond for his sword. With the snap of her fingers bent it in half. She then ran a finger along the sword and straighened it to perfection. The last one was teleporting. "I don't know if I can do this one I used a lot of energy to get here so I'm kind of weak." Lord Elrond nodded and told her not to bother then, but she insisted. Alina Concentrated a little harder than normal and in the blink of an eye she teleported to the balcony above. She called to Lord Elronds attention so he could she where she was. But after that performance she was wiped out. Lord Elrond had Lindir lead her to one of the guest room so she could sleep as long as needed.
Lord Elrond went back to his study to reflect on what he had witness. Alina was indeed very powerful and would be a great asset to the Company. Who were determined to reclaim their homeland at any cost. He was convince that she would be able to save the line of Durin. Though for some reason on the edge of his mind a thought would not leave him 'and continue it'. But he disregarded it. Now the only problem was to convince a cantankerous, egotistical, old Dwarf to let her join. Elrond sighed "Easy enough."
