Gone through Terrigenesis. Shown extreme control. Currently staying in Stark Tower.
"Agent Barton and Romanoff is waiting for you two up on the carrier," An agent told Lincoln and Ellie as they made their way up to where the quinjet was waiting for them. Ellie was surprised at the lean woman standing next to Clint at the quinjet. She was dressed in normal clothes but Ellie, like the rest of the world, knew her as the Black Widow. The pair waved Ellie and Lincoln into the plane as they settled into the cockpit.
"Don't worry, Nat is terrible at piloting,"
"Oh yeah? And you are the definition of good piloting? What about Moscow last year," Romanoff snarked back, the two began starting the jet as Campbell and Eliya sat down. "I am Natasha Romanoff, known as Black Widow but you can call me Nat,"
"You can call me anytime but you never told me your name," He gave a wink through the mirror above him.
"Ellie Ranter,"
"Nice to see you too Campbell, your new friend showed me her tricks in the gym yesterday, and no she didn't destroy anything," She flicked her eyes to Lincoln. He didn't answer but Ellie could see the tension in his jaw. "Up and out we go my friends," Lincoln's jaw stayed tight, his arm gripping the handle of the chair. His fingers were turning white, and the veins in his arm coming into view. Ellie touched his arm and he released his grip on the chair looking at her with wide brown eyes.
"You okay?" She whispered, looking at the cockpit to make sure the other two didn't hear them. He nodded but his face was still strained and tense. He clenched his hand into a tight fist but Ellie saw the white streaks, she took his hands and place them between her hands. The heat radiating off his hands made her flinch away but she quickly put her hands back. The white streaks turned red and fell apart allowed into a powder. She went to pull away but he gave her a look so she kept her hands there. Her hands kept countering his streaks, turning them into an energy powder.
"We are making our descent," Barton looked through the mirror spotting the two inhumans hands locked together. His head tilted but his attention was quickly brought back to landing the plane on the Stark helicopter pad. The large 'Stark' logo had been replaced but the A of the avengers.
"Welcome Agent Barton, Sir was expecting you later but I'll tell him of your arrivals," A british voice ran out.
"Ever lovely to see you too JARVIS, but tell Stark with have two in tow as well," The quinjet shut off then and Lincoln's muscles all seem to relax at the same time, he took two large breaths. Ellie took her hands off his but not before he gave her a small nod. They all exited the jet and walked into the tower.
"Sir would like to see you at the lounge, he is accompanied by Mr Rogers,"
"Take us there JARVIS," Barton spoke as they all got into the elevator and JARVIS brought them to the floor that had the lounge. Ellie's eyes darted around the room, stopping on all the TV monitors just in the first room.
"Legolas! JARVIS told me about your friends in tow but you did not warn me that a very pretty girl was one of them. I'm Ironman but you can call me Tony anytime," Tony was walking towards the four of them, sticking his hand out to Ellie. She raised her eyebrows at the man's words.
"Eliya but you can call me Ellie," Lincoln was staring at Stark, his eyes tight and unwavering.
"Lincoln, it's been awhile but nice of you to join us," Lincoln just gave him a firm nod, nothing else was said between the two.
"Welcome to my humble tower, anything you need JARVIS can help you with, anything JARVIS can't help you with well then you can call me," He gave Ellie a wink and she didn't miss the second meaning of his words. "Over there is star-spangled but he isn't as cool as me," Steve Rogers gave her a short wave and she returned it. "By orders of Fury you have been allowed to use the fighting room and it will be equip with whatever you usually use for your training. You may enter any rooms JARVIS allows access too. Please don't destroy the tower, Banner already did that. By the way, Nat where is our jade jaws?" The redhead eyes narrowed.
"You know I'm working on it Stark," She growled back, Tony wasn't fazed however and he continued.
"There should be stuff in your rooms already which JARVIS will show you to,"
"Yes sir," JARVIS replied. "Enter the elevator to be shown to your rooms," Lincoln gave Ellie a nod and they both entered the elevator leaving four of the avengers in the lounge together. The stood in silence just inches from each other. "Mr Campbell your room is directly on the left and Ms Ranter yours is on the right,"
"I'll meet you outside in five minutes," Lincoln said simply before disappearing into his room. Ellie took a long breath before heading into hers. It was larger than the one on the helicarrier and it was more equiped. With a small sitting room and a tv before another door led to the bedroom. She received a text then. Hope you made it to Stark tower, I am relocating to DC. She knew before even reading the name that it was from her brother. Robert had seen her before she left and wished her luck. I did and its huge! I'll visit you once SHIELD loosens its hold on me, don't worry too much. Was what she wrote before she sent to replying text. She grabbed a bottle of water before heading outside to meet Lincoln. He was leaning against his door, his lean leg resting on the door. "We will begin with some control methods for when your emotions are up,"
"One of the smaller conference rooms was recommended for your first trainings," JARVIS spoke through the hall, Ellie looked around wondering where the AI was listening to their conversation. "Sorry to inform you Ms Ranter but I can hear in most of the building however information that is confidential may be kept from sir by request. There is a conference room two doors down and on your right,"
"Thank you JARVIS," Lincoln spoke aloud before the two walked over to the door and heading in. They got settled down in some seats before Lincoln began talking to her. "Now ever under stress or extreme emotions your powers should be able to be controlled, they should not activate without you activating them. You understand?"
"You in the plane?" She questioned, his face tightened.
"I am sorry about that, too many times have a brought down a plane by just being there but that was a curious experiment. It seems your power almost shuts mine down, that does not usually happen," He noticed, palm facing towards Ellie he sent a small streak towards hers. She put her hands up and when the streak reach her it dissolved into the air. "You have impeccable control, I wasn't kidding when I told Coulson that. Most by this stage would have to be in a neutralising room to stop them from destroying people and things," He looked up to the light above them before swiping his hand downwards before closing his hand. The light dimmed to the point where it almost looked off, and in his hand was a ball of energy. "I not only can manipulate the energy in other objects but also in particles, allowing me to move people and things," He pushed the energy back up to the light and it gained full strength once again. "Your energy is similar but is more, mine is only energy from surrounding objects or particles. Judging by the red colour your energy takes up it suggests it is also taken from your own mental energy, meaning you maybe be able to just take energy from someone else's mind,"
"Like Scarlet Witch does?"
"Sort of but she isn't inhuman, just enhanced so she also has control over telekinesis and is able to manipulate the mind of others, you appear to be able to only manipulate energy but not the brain itself," Lincoln tried to explain.
"If I was to pull the energy away from someones brain they would effectively die correct?"
"Basically, I would not suggest you try it anytime soon," He smiled when he said that. He gestured to the light above them. Ellie pulled downwards trying to coax the energy away from the light, as she then gained it in her hand. Lincoln nodded at her so she pushed upwards once again. The bulb smashed, sending glass all around the couple.
"Would you like me to get maintenance to fix that Mr Campbell?" JARVIS voice broke Ellie's shock as Lincoln's face crunched into a smile.
"Yes please JARVIS," After JARVIS said no more Lincoln started laughing, Ellie looked at him eyes wide. "That was pretty funny," He commented, Ellie was not impressed with him. "Trying doing it slower so the energy is returned to the bulb slowly and doesn't burst the bulb with the quick regain," Lincoln pointed to the light behind him and Ellie raised her hands. Pulling it downwards in a motion she would pull silk, slowly working the energy downwards. The red sparks travelled downwards towards her hands, the bulb went dark. She spun the sparks in a circular motion before cutting it in half. Ellie hit half of the energy slowly upwards, floating it back to the bulb. Finally she sent the remaining half on its way towards the bulb, relighting the light to it's original brightness. "Much better," Lincoln commented smiling widely, JARVIS broke their moment once again.
"Ms Ranter, Agent Barton was wondering if you could join him in the lounge room for lunch," JARVIS electronic voice echoed through the empty room, Ellie looked to Lincoln.
"We are done here," Lincoln waved her off, before he stood up towards the door.
"Thank you JARVIS, please tell him I am on the way," Ellie spoke to the AI, the pair of inhumans exited the room before stopping at their rooms.
"I'm staying up here, fantastic job Ellie," Lincoln spoke praising her before heading into his room leaving Ellie to head down to find Clint. As the elevator opened she saw the back of the blond archer working away in the small kitchen. She walked over to him, looking over his shoulder to check what he was making.
"Do you eat egg mayo?" He asked before she had even made her presences known.
"How, but yeah I do," She laughed as he rolled his eyes at her.
"Try to sneak up on a senior SHIELD agents, real smooth Ranter," He joked as he handed her one of the sandwiches, before sitting on the bar stools. Ellie sat across from his taking a bit of his sandwich before giving him a nod.
"Can make a sandwich too? Wow you really are a well-rounded man," She spoke raising her eyebrows at him.
"I can do other things too," He gave her a wink and Ellie just smiled.
"Maybe I'll find that out too," The two of them laughed together, ringing throughout the lounge area. All the air clearing out of their lungs, really letting go.
"The laughter, it's really a circus in here," Stark commented but the two sandwich eaters continued giggling even after their moment was broken. "What's going on inhuman?"
"I'm disappointed Tony? No smart nickname I'm quite disappointed," She joked to him, pouting as Barton laughed.
"Well Miss, I'm not familiar with your abilities yet, just that you could blow my entire tower," Clint then folded his hands together, knowing that this would get interesting. Ellie looked around but just settled for taking from in front of her, swirled her hands dramatically to give Stark a show. Pulling energy from around her the energy gathered within her hands creating a ball, she twirled it a few more times watching the red ball go round and round. Smiling she clapped sending the energy away but the clap gave her a little jolt. "Well crap, quite impressed Red Magic,"
"It'd be a good time to tell you that I broke your light upstairs with Lincoln," She gave him a small smile, watching his face.
"God damn it, you inhumans breaking everything," He said smiling before he turned to leave. "See you later Red Magic, don't have too much fun with Arrow over there,"
(ANS is really on its way, send me a review or a PM if you want. I'll take any ideas)
