READ OK YOU GOTTA READ, so I lost motivation for my last story and I didn't really like it anyway. Sooooo that's gone from fanfiction until I can fix it. Somehow... Now it's the new year and I've decided to try again. Pls I beg of all of those who actually thought it was a good idea check this story to review and let me know how I've done and how to improve. Story-line, characters, anything. For those that did tune in to my story also let me know if I should pair my character with one of the Avengers or not. Thank you for reading this if you even bothered and I'll shut up now, after the crap summery, probably... OH! line breaks are POV change or SCENE change.

By the way, this is an AU(Alternate Universe)

I AM KING, OR QUEEN, OR WHATEVER OF THIS AU, RATINGS MAY CHANGE/ 1,791 WORDS MY GOD

OK let me get this straight, I got dragged through a dimensional portal, merged with a dragon, landed on an alien ship, accidently destroyed it, got saved by Iron Man, and saved the world with the Avengers... why does this sound like a fanfiction?

Tony sat at his computer in his private lab staring at the statistics in front of him. There had been a huge energy spike in New York little over an hour ago that shook half the city, including Avengers tower. All the Avengers had gathered and were working with S.H.I.E.L.D. to find the source of the energy spike and determine its effects. So far nothing turned up, not even an estimated area. Different signals and servers were still recovering from the jamming the energy caused, even Tony's computer had malfunctioned but rebooted 10 minutes later fully functional. Now 2 whole hours had gone by and still nothing, till another energy spike was detected. However this one was smaller and weaker like a wake up call rather than a concussion, which he was totally OK with. With this him and S.H.I.E.L.D. had managed to not only get an estimate area of the source, but 30 minutes later he found the exact location. With this new info the Avengers made their way to the source of the energy spike finally. When they got there they noticed a few things. First, the location was an abandoned apartment with no life anywhere to be seen. Second, there was a giant hole in the roof with black markings all around and upon closer inspection they found they were scorch marks. Third, the hole made it through several floors with scorch marks surrounding the edges. Finally, at the bottom in the scorch rubble was a clear unscorched patch in the shape of a person, where a body should have been, who was nowhere to be found.

TIMESKIP AFTER THE INVASION

Steve Rogers was loading rubble into a wheelbarrow and helping a couple fix their little store they were rebuilding. After the invasion he noticed there was extensive damage to the city. Stores and homes were demolished and couldn't stand around. So he decided to go out every day and helped with the rebuilding project. One thing was always on his mind, the mystery hero that helped them during the invasion. The hero was a woman that claimed to not be a hero, but instead a vigilante. It stuck him as odd, as far as he was concerned everyone wanted to be a hero. So why did this mystery girl want to be a vigilante instead? It made no sense to him. The wife of the couple had called for him, getting him out of his thought process, and asked him if he could hold up a support beam for the front entrance. Of course he said yes, however the support beams were heavier than he expected and was having some trouble. To his surprise, a stranger had grabbed one of the beams from his grasp and gave him a small smile. He gave a smile back and felt relieved as he lifted the support beam into place, expecting the other person to be waiting for him to lift the other beam. But she, yes she, had already lifted the beam and was looking back at him with interest. And so another mystery girl wanders into his life, he wondered if there were any other surprises life had in store for him in the future. "Ah, thank you miss. Please keep the beams in place while I nail them into place." the husband asked them both.

"Sure, no problem." Steve responded while the girl gave a nod in response. With the husband doing that Steve decided to get a better look at the new mystery girl that helped him. She was looking at the husband so he didn't have to worry about the girl questioning him if he was staring at her or not. She looked to be about 18-20 years of age, 5ft 8in, and short red hair. She wore a dirty green hoodie with rips and torns around the hems, dirty black pants torn at the bottom and, as you may have guessed, dirty black runners. What really caught him the most were her eyes, they were an unusual and unique green that he couldn't think of a type that matched. What really made her eyes so unique was what they were holding inside of them. Steve had heard that the eyes never lie and show one's true feelings, if that was the case he was sure he didn't want to piss this girl off. Inside her eyes was a coat of innocence, innocence that was hiding something that he didn't want to find out. The husband had already finished his beam somewhere in the middle of his studying of the girl and had just finished the other beam. The girl turned to him and he noticed he was staring. Steve quickly caught himself, putting on a smile and hoped she didn't notice. "Thank you for helping me with that support beam earlier."

What he didn't know was she noticed everything. "No problem."

It was weird being in another world so alike yet unlike her own. She kept musing on how amazing yet difficult it was being in the world of the Avengers till she felt eyes on her. She waited till the man she was helping finished securing the beam into place to find out who was staring at her. And she found her eyes locked with none other than Captain America. "Thank you for helping me with that support beam earlier." It was a good cover up from his staring but she still noticed and would ask him later. So she answered him, "No problem."

EVERYONE POV 'CAUSE I CAN

Time had passed and the couples store turned from rubbish to a fair shaped store. They had insisted that Steve and the unknown girl take some food or money for helping them, both declined yet the couple still insisted. The red head lied to them saying that they had shared a sandwich when the couple had gone in to sweep the upstairs rooms. It's true they took a break at that time but they didn't have any food. "OH.. So that's why you two weren't looking so tired when I came down to check on you."
"Yeah, besides it is getting a little darker out, we really should be heading to our homes before it does get dark. The streets aren't exactly safe at night."
After that the wife apologized repeatedly and let them on their way. This moment was when Steve decided to ask something that's been on his mend since she helped him. "We never did introduce ourselves did we? My name is Steve Rogers." he held out his hand.
"But your also known as Captain America." She took his hand and shook it. "Name's Rivver Strawson."
"Well Miss. Strawson, not many people know me as Steve Rogers so I am a little surprised that you do." He wasn't lying, not many people even bothered with him without his shield and suit. So for this random girl he was talking to too actually know him as both may or may not have stunned him a bit.
"Why were you staring at me earlier?" OK, OK, OK, that REALLY caught him off guard and he didn't know what to say. His face was the definition of shock and took a step back. 'I THOUGHT I COVERED THAT UP, SHIT WHAT AM I SUPPOSED TO SAY!'
"OMG, I am so sorry I didn't mean to blurt that out! You covered it up really well if that makes you feel better!" She panicked, waving her arms in defence after watching him stare with wide eyes and take a step back. Yeah, she may have been a little blunt but she did want to know.
"Was it my hair, my eyes, or the fact I stepped in to help a stranger without hesitation?"

It took a bit but that question seemed to snap him into reality, he shook his head and took a couple breaths to calm down. When he looked back at her she had her right hand rubbing the back of her neck, the other behind her back, and her left foot rubbing the ground with the toe of her shoe. This girl was definitely interesting, Steve decided to get to know her a little.

Steve had just been standing there for a few minutes with a pale face so Rivver was really worried. Perhaps she should ask another time. "It's OK if you don't want to tell me right now, I understand."
Steve looked at her for a moment. "Do you mind if we go for dinner. We didn't eat earlier and I am hungry myself, there's a dinner about a block away. Would you like to come along?"
"I don't have any money."
"My treat then, I'm not going to leave you here without something to eat. Think about is as me repaying you for earlier."
Well she was hungry, and Rivver knew that he wasn't going to give up either. If karma really does exist, then she could get used to it.
"Alright." After a bit of walking Rivver decided to break the ice. "By the way, I don't kiss on the first date."
Both broke out in a fit of laughter while enjoying the walk down the sunset street.
