Authors note: Well, hey guys. Here is chapter one from this Avengers fanfic. Please read and review, for I would love to know what you think.
Now on to the story;
Chapter One
The city was a mess; cars upturned, fires all around, people in the streets hurt or helping others. The Avengers were standing in the middle of it all. Some past Hydra supporters decided to cause some trouble for the city, so the Avengers intervened…and…well…it didn't go so well.
Seeing the avengers were getting ready to leave the scene, I took my chance and ran up to the first person I could reach, Captain America aka Steve Rogers.
"Wait…Wait please!" I yelled as I ran up to Captain America. "Please, Captain. Can I just have a view words, please?"
The Captain turned to me, looking slighty unsure. Turning to the rest of his team, they nodded at him and he nodded back. Turning back to me, he nodded again this time at me.
"Very well, Miss…?" He asked beeseechingly.
"Clark. My name is Ashton Clark." I answered.
"Right, Miss Clark. What would you like to know?"
I stared at him, not thinking he would do the interview. After all The Avengers have never done an interview with me before. They always turned me down. I paused for a minute to think of my first question I wanted to ask him.
"What inspired you to become a hero, Captain?" I asked, putting up my professional mask instantly.
"After fighting in the war, and waking up from the ice and felt that I could do more with my abilities. I felt like helping innocent people and save them from what they couldn't fight themselves, so I became Captain America." He replied honestly.
"Thank you for answering that, I know that you have been asked this question tonnes of times before, but you never answered like that before. Why?"
"I don't honestly know, Miss Clark. I just felt that I could trust you. Now if you'll excuse me, I need to go and write up the mission report. Goodbye for now Miss Clark, I hope to see and talk to you again some other time." Captain America said, then walked away to his waiting team.
I stared at him as he left and said softly to his back, "Goodbye…Captain."
After The Avengers left, I walked over to my car and drove home to my apartment, I had some major thinking to do, before I go out tonight.
With The Avengers; Avengers Facility…
As the team got back into the tower, they all walked over to the couches and collapsed. Captain America took off his mask and brushed his hair with his hand. He looked at his team mates and said sarcastically; "Well, that went well."
The rest of the team stared at him, not having much effort to retort back.
"Well, I think everyone should hit the showers, then return here, I have an impromptu mission to discuss with you." He said as he walked past Tony, who was taking off his iron man suit. Steve said directly to him, "Especially you, Tony, you stink worst than the rest of us."
Eventually, an hour later, everyone returned to the sitting room and collapsed on the sofas. Steve returned and sat in front of them thinking. After 5 minutes he open his mouth and asked: "Have you guy's heard of this mysterious new superhero going around the streets late at night fighting crime?"
The group nodded and some said "yeah."
"Well, Fury has said that we need to find them and bring them in for questioning. We don't know if they are a threat or if they really, honestly and truthfully want to help the city and world, if so, we will see if they want to join our little team." Steve said to them.
Tony looked slightly unsure of this and asked Steve, "What kind of powers do they have?"
"Urgh…we're not quite sure, but we will find out when we find them. So execute safety procedures and keep your eyes open for possible threats." Steve ordered playfully.
"So…when do we leave?" Thor asked impatiently.
"In about…" Steve looks at his watch"… 2 hours. So… gear up"
With Runa aka Ashton Clark- slums of New York- 23:00
As I fight crime in the slums of New York I keep thinking back to the interview I got with Captain America earlier today. My first ever interview with him, it's a miracle. I know it sounds strange but I can't help it, I mean he scarcely gives out interview and when he does, they're few and far between. But anyway mind back on the job…
I hear a noise and go to investigate and to my surprise The Avengers come out and stand before me.
"We come before you with peace, we do not wish to fight you, only ask you a few questions." Black widow said steadily with her hand up and in front of her to show she meant no harm.
I look at them all and saw them nod their heads. I saw my brother Thor look strangely at me. I hope he doesn't recognise me. I don't say anything, I only stay in the shadows with my head viewable. I nod at them to carry on and Captain America steps forward.
"We want to know if you mean well to this city, are you going to keep protecting it or soon turn on it." He asked me. I tensed up and looked him in the eye.
"I have been doing this for 9 months now and I don't plan on turning my back on those who need a hero the most." I said softly, knowing they would have to strain their ears to hear me. "And right now, I don't have time for this, I'm sorry"
The captain took I step forward as I levitated off the ground, and moved to fly away.
"Wait!" he shouted to me. "At least tell us your name and a way to contact you."
"Just call my name loudly and I shall hear you" I answered him.
"And your name is…?" Thor asked.
As I flew away I looked back and whispered knowing they would hear; "Runa…my name is Runa!"
