Avenger'd
Chapter Two
Loki was furious, to put it mildly. His brilliant plan, had all but failed! Everything was perfectly done: the generator, the baiting of the so-called Avengers, the arc reactor powering the cube, Stark's manipulation could have been done better, but the portal was supposed to work, it HAD to work!
After the Iron Man had caught the falling human, Loki growled in a furious rage and used his staff to shut off the Tesseract. The portal closed and the raging god collected the still-unconscious astrophysicist, intending on getting his answers.
Meanwhile, Dr. Banner and Thor joined up with the other members of the Avengers, all now crowded around the girl. Thor looked up, and became solemn.
"My brother has gone," he stated in a low voice, dropping the arm carrying Mjolnir to his side. "Most likely to find out why his promised Chitauri failed to come." The others nodded, also curious, though relieved, to that fact. Bruce looked down on the teen, eyes analyzing her with scrutiny.
"She's still breathing, but we probably should move to a…" he looked around at the current scene, passerby starting to crowd. "…more safe or private place, don't you think?"
"Yeah," Tony and Steve both agreed. Tony suggested that the Avengers all move to the Stark Tower, now that Loki had gone to recuperate.
"Because Stark Tower is just the perfect label of safety," Natasha quipped, doubtful of the Tower, since Loki could still have ways of getting in. Tony scoffed.
"Uh, heh-yeah, actually it is, besides the elevator problem, but I'm getting that fixed," the billionaire added, with a slightly acidic twinge. "JARVIS's security network is impenetrable and besides, I don't think taking her back to the Helicarrier is the brightest of ideas, seeing as Fury would have a field day." The black-clad assassin pondered this thought for a moment, and then nodded in agreement. "Then it's settled. I'll let you guys in from the top."
With that, Tony rocketed to the roof of Stark Tower, leaving the other Avengers on the street below. Returning inside the penthouse area and dismounting the Mark VII, Tony set the teen down on the couch, wistfully glancing at her, and then activated his computers.
"JARVIS, do a full scan on her. I need to know, who, what, where and how!" he ordered.
"Right away, sir," the AI complied in its crisp accent, running a holographic beam on the girl. While the artificial entity looked over the girl, Tony went and got himself another drink. "I am receiving no identity for this girl in any of my databases. She is a Jane Doe as of now."
"Mm."
"She is most definitely human, age 16, Caucasian, and besides the somewhat erratic heartbeat, her functions are that of a normal person."
"Mr. Stark? A group of five individuals wish to come to the penthouse, should-?"
"Let them up, they're the Avengers," Tony replied without glancing to the elevator. "Normal human huh?" he mused. "How come you fell outta the sky then?"
A soft ding of the elevator was heard, and the gold colored doors opened to Thor, Cap, Hawkeye, Widow, and Banner.
"So, what's the deal?" Cap asked after the six of them settled in the penthouse. Tony brushed his hand over his face in a stressed motion.
"According to JARVIS, she's a completely normal human, run of the mill teenager," he answered slowly, still trying to understand this.
"Normal humans do not just fall out of the sky or disrupt the Tesseract," Thor commented in a brusque manner.
It was then that the teen started to stir.
I was falling. Falling through an abyss of darkness and, for lack of a better word, space. But it couldn't have been space, because I was still breathing, or just barely anyways. It was somewhat surreal, drifting in this pool of onyx atmosphere. I could hear muffled voices floating in and out of my ears, but nothing solid or resolute.
All of a sudden, I felt a biting chill around me, like I was being overwhelmed by a snowstorm of cold. I curled up into a ball, trying to not freeze (if that could even happen in this dreamlike space?) and then I heard a cruel, menacing laughter that seemed to come from all around me. I lifted my head, and almost immediately I locked eyes with a pair of glaring emeralds, that seemed to be piercing into my very heart.
"Mortal…" the eyes appeared to whisper in a hauntingly silky voice.
"Who are you?!" I shouted into the black, the eyes having disappeared after I opened my mouth. But no answer was received, and almost all at once, I felt my consciousness lift.
My eyes felt heavy and I hadn't realized they were closed, but my eyelids fluttered at the sounds my ears were now picking up.
"Normal humans do not just fall out of the sky or disrupt the Tesseract!"
I unconsciously let out a groan, to which the other sounds became quiet. My eyes slowly blinked open, and at first what I saw was no more than a blurry image.
"She's awake!" I heard someone muffle, and I blinked lazily once again. As the image started to focus I could make out six figures, one of which had messy brown hair and facial hair to match with a glowing circle of light radiating through his shirt, and behind him was a man in a red white and blue outfit, two others in all black gear, one in disheveled baggy clothing with glasses and lastly, a blonde haired figure in armor and a red cape, seemingly holding some kind of hammer. As I continued to blink, the people became clearer, and my eyes widened significantly.
"W-where am I?"
Woo typical cliffy ending right there.
That weird little dreamscene was just kinda what happened in the OC's subconscious after passing out through the time/space rift. XD
Sorry if anyone seemed OOC, if anyone does, I'll be sure to work on it. I kinda feel like Thor and Hawkeye were just there. idk maybe I'll get better at writing them all in a room together later. *shrug*
Review please! I love hearing feedback, and maybe an idea can be inspiration or used on a future chapter!
-DMRA out!
