Melissa Margaret "Pegasus" Johansen's world was being taken over by the Chitauri as she finds a device to get her elsewhere after Thanos forces her to watch the Earth get destroyed before her very eyes. She finds herself in SHIELD, eventually into Steve Roger's arms as she finds out she was originally from here and there was more twists waiting to be uncovered. But after all she's been through it would take Steve to give her the courage to face a past she was denied all these years...
Note: I have no idea how long this is going to be but this was a request by angel de acuario. I didn't like what I had before so I think I got it this time... I hope.
Chapter one - Six months after the Fall of New York in a World the Avengers don't exist...
The Chitauri was everywhere all over this world, my sister and I were hiding in the sewers with other soldiers that we had recruited over the last 2 years. Armed with our wits, gear of both our world and the Chitaruri's technology we got as close as we could to the Empire state building. Our mission was suicide but it was the option to save the world that we could think of.
I looked at my twin sister Melanippe "Melly" Anne Johansen as she tiredly looked to my side. "It sucks we don't have any super heroes here." She spoke as she took off her helmet as I saw her light brown hair.
"I know Sissy. Remember Mom's Stories and the comics we read as kids?" I replied.
"Of Captain America, Bucky and the Avengers? How can I not? It's the only thing helping forget about this war for the night. Then I wake up and fight these alien asshats again... Er whatever they are." She grumbled.
"I wish they existed." I spoke, "We could really use heroes like them here."
"Well Sis... We're the only heroes this world has left." She said as I felt sad again, letting the tears out finally for the first time in 2 years, "Sis?"
"I was thinking of Mom and Dad, and everyone we lost."
"Pegasus, I know it's hard I know it looks hopeless but we have to stop them this is our last option."
"I know Melly." I sighed.
"Besides you are more advanced in tech than I am." Melly spoke, "Besides if we fail we won't have a home to come home to..."
"Sis I hate it when you put it that way."
"Sorry..." She spoke, "They make it look so easy."
"I know," I replied, "But you're right Sis, and we only have one shot to do this too."
"It's our last shot." She spoke, "We do this, we will be forever heroes in our children's eyes."
I smiled at Melly, she always found a way to look on the bright side of life no matter how grim things looked. She smiled back at me as she gave me a much deserved hug. "No matter what happens Sis I'll be with you till the end even in spirit I'll be with you."
"Same back at you." I said.
"Remember when we were kids we went on the cyclone and we got sick?" Melly spoke.
"Yeah we forgot to eat a snack before going to that fair." I said with a snicker as she laughed at me.
"Those were good times sis."
"They sure were." I said as I looked to our squad, "Ok here's the plan guys, we open up one of the elevator shafts and use their speeders we converted to jet packs to give us a lift, we stop at the second from the top floor. From there you'll all have to cover me as I figure out how to turn off their portal. Make sure nothing gets close to me above and below us. Got it?"
"Yes Ma'am." Cried out the Squad.
"If only Roger can see me now..."
Melly put her hand on my shoulder as I looked at her again, "He's watching over you in spirit sis, just like the rest of our family is."
"Let's do this." I said.
The mission was going as planned but as I looked at the tech everything I saw my hands just went through... Holograms, next I knew I made a run for it to the portal as I saw Thanos right there on top of the Empire state building. He smiled at us then used the gauntlet's powers to knock me out... Next I knew Thanos had me on a ship as I saw the Earth and everything I worked so hard to save being destroyed before my eyes.
"NOOOO!" I cried out as I saw the planet blow up... 'So this is how Princess Leia felt when she saw her homeworld destroyed.' I thought as the tears built up... My world, my family, my friends, it all gone... And I failed them all...
"Put the human woman in a sleeping pod," Said Thanos, "Let her be a symbol that our test on her world was a success, now onto our prime world. Tell Loki his Army is ready."
This had to be a Nightmare, it had to be a Nightmare. I was thrown into a pod as I was forced to sleep with tears on my face...
New York During the Battle of New York
"Hey Steve I'm sure I saw a woman in some sort of pod in the downed Chitarri snake ship thing I took out." Said Tony on the coms.
"On my way." Said Steve as he headed over as he forced his way inside... He saw a pod, inside he can only see what looked to be the body of a lady... Her eyes were swollen as it looked as if tears were frozen on her face... "Ah question how do I open it?"
I woke up as I felt as if I had the air sucked out of me as if I was in a cold vacuum container. I was coughing for air
"Ma'am are you alright?" said a man's voice as I woke up on a Chitauri ship... I felt so cold, I managed to open my eyes as I saw a man dressed up as Captain America, I then saw a Chitauri run as I got up and shot it in the head with a staff I saw on the ground.
"Is Thanos here too?" I asked, "Is the war still on?"
"Ma'am the war just started." Said Captain America, "Who's Thanos?"
I looked at him in shock, "Wait what?"
I helped these people save New York City as I was brought forward to meet a man named Nick Fury. He looked at me as if we met before. I was very confused but I took a deep breath.
"I'm Melissa Margaret Johansen code name 'Private Pegasus'." I spoke as I saluted to him.
"At ease soldier." said Nick Fury, "Captain Rogers and the Avengers brought the pod that you were in. It says you were from a world that they used as a testing ground six months from now?"
I sat down, "It was a nightmare... Fury. Ah does Star Wars exist here?"
"The movies? Starring Mark Hamill, Harrison Ford?" Said a woman giving me a cup of tea only to drop it on the floor, "Melly? Is that you? Why is your hair blonde?"
"That was my sister's name..." I spoke, "I'm Melissa."
"Melissa Margaret Johansen was kidnapped after birth we never found her. Melanippe Johansen never believed the cover story, neither did her family."
"You're telling me they're alive?"
"You're sister died in Afghanistan, trying to save Mr. Stark's life. We never found her body either..." Said Fury, "I don't suppose you have any idea on how you got from this Earth to another?"
