Chapter 8: Distractions and battles
Michael was continuing his unwanted assault on me, placing kisses all over my neck, eventually spinning me around so that I would face the man who more than likely wanted to kill my brother, avenging his father's death. He knelt down before me, lifted my shirt up a little bit and started kissing my stomach, and I felt his hands go up my shirt, towards my breasts and started squeezing them a little roughly. "Does that feel good to you, Amanda? The way I touch you?" he asked sinisterly as he rolled my nipples in his hands painfully, hoping that I would be aroused. "Fuck no! The only one who is allowed to touch me in that way is my fiance! You are nothing more than a demented, horny, walking talking cuckoo clock!" I shouted groaning at the pain that Michael was giving me by touching me roughly. He just smiled evilly as he started unbuttoning my pants, and I don't know why I didn't think of doing this, but I used my unbound legs to kick him in the face, causing him to stagger for a little bit before he came back towards me and shoved my pants and underwear down and forced his fingers into my folds, inducing a scream of pain from me. "I can do what your fiance can't do if you give yourself to me." He said still moving his fingers inside me, trying to get me aroused. "I won't you psycho!" I shouted in agony of the pain, and the fear of being raped by Obadiah's son. He was about to put his tongue inside me, when the phone rang. Michael got back up and I saw my blood on his fingers and I was angry, yet ashamed that I let him do that to me, but I wouldn't let that stop me from wanting to kill him, but I needed to find a way to activate Hera before Michael would kill my brother. He licked his fingers, savoring my blood and juices, before going to answer the phone. "What is it, I'm busy!" he snarled into the phone, and I could tell that it was someone outside who wanted to negotiate my release. Well, that didn't take long for all of this to be on the news. "Ok, I will be right there. Bye." He said hanging up the phone. He came back towards me, thinking that he might continue what he started, when he just pulled my pants and underwear back up and rebuttoning them as if he didn't attempt to rape me. "I will be back to finish what I started, Amanda. Don't do anything stupid." He said going to the door to see the negotiator about my release. When he left, I immediately was desperate in finding a way to get out of my bounds, to where I was trying to get the tape off my arms by forcing my arms up, nearly breaking the chair arms in Tony's desk chair.
After a few minutes of trying to get out of my bonds, I managed to get my arms out enough to call up either Tony or Pepper with my cell phone, which I managed to get out of my pocket. After a few minutes of ringing, Tony finally picked up the phone. "Tony! Thank god, I am so damn happy to hear your voice again." I said frantically. "I'm at SHEILD's Helicarrier right now with the others, including Loki and Thor. What's going on, are you alright?" he asked relieved that I was alright. "I'm fine for right now, but my kidnapper attempted to rape me maybe a few minutes ago. My kidnapper's name is Michael Orion Stane, he Obadiah's son!" I said trying to hold back tears for the unwanted assault on my body. I could tell that Tony was boiling with rage over the phone about what I told him "I will kill that son of a bitch if it's the last thing I ever do!" Tony snarled, wanting to break my kidnapper's neck, and I was more than happy to let him do that to Michael. "I will let you do that, but I need to remember how to activate Hera, I can't remember how!" I said, frantic about activating it. "We are on our way to Malibu right now, and as for activating your suit, look for a black, silver and gold briefcase somewhere in the office, and once you get the suit on, you need to get out of there! If anything goes wrong, fight him, but try and save some for me!" he said, assuring me that he would hurry. "How's Loki, is he alright?" I asked worried about my fiance. "He's enraged that this happened to you, you're on speaker,"-goddamit Tony!-"but he wants a piece of that bastard too!" he said. I would tell that he was getting ready to suit up too along with the other avengers. I started looking for the briefcase that Tony told me about, when Michael came back in the office, seeing that I was out of my bonds. "No, how did you get out of your bonds?!" He seethed. "Doesn't matter, but I know someone who is not happy with you trying to rape me, and trying to kill my own brother!" I said finally finding the briefcase and briefly using it as a weapon to smack Michael on the side of his head hard, buying me enough time to try and escape without getting caught. When I got outside to the roof with the briefcase in hand, I knew that I was trapped, but I wondered where the bastard was, until I heard some smashing noises coming from below the roof, and I heard a very loud sound come from behind me, and when I turned, there was a suit that looked a WHOLE LOT like what Obadiah had when he went to try and kill Tony, except that it was a little smaller. "Going somewhere, sweetie pie?" a metallic voice said. The top of the suit opened and I saw that it was Michael. "You like this, honey? It's more modified than what my father used to try and kill Tony. Now, it can be used to not only kill him, but your fiance and other little pegs standing in the way of victory, and when there is only you left standing after I have Stark industries for myself, you will eventually warm up to me, hell, you might even love me!" he said, confirming for me that he was nuts, more nuts than Loki. "Over my cold dead body!" a voice shouted, firing repulsors at Michael when his top half reattached itself to the suit, temporarily knocking Michael down. I turned and looked up, and there was a suit that was somewhat similar to Tony's suit, but it had Captain America's color scheme**.
The person in the suit landed and the face mask came up, revealing a face that I was more than happy to see. "Rhodey?! God am I glad to see you! Nice suit by the way." I said giving Rhodey a hug. "Good to see you too! Tony kind of gave me the 411 on what happened, so I thought I might help you out until the others get here, and put Obadiah's kid where he belongs: with his daddy!" he said releasing me from his hug. I opened the briefcase and put my hands on the insides of the hand parts, lifted it up, spread it around with my arms, and let the suit do its work. I felt at peace as the suit was activating and piecing itself on me, finally finishing with the facemask over my face and having the stuff from the inside activated. "God, I missed this suit!" I said, finally relieved that Hera was on by body, ready to go. "JARVIS, where are the others?" I asked once everything was activated. "They will be here momentarily, shall I link you to everyone's comm. links?" he asked. "Please, do that including Rhodey's comm. Link!" I said and went to Rhodey's side just as his facemask was coming back down. Rhodey smirked behind his mask. "What do you say to finally giving the spawn of treachery a piece of revenge?" he asked. "I say, 'once more unto the breach my dear friends, once more!*'" I shouted as me and Rhodey shot up into the air.
We started attacking Michael just as he was shooting himself up in the air to attack us, unfortunately with the whole entire media watching us. As we all got up into the air, Rhodey fired his machine gun at Michael, hoping that it would distract him long enough for me to fire my repulsors at him. "Mandy, where are you guys?" Natasha asked while she was on a quinjet with the others. "Hey, you alright? By the way, follow the sound of machine guns and repulsors and even some media coverage, and look for a gigantic suit as you go along!" I said, pointing out where I might be. "Stark, you better hurry up, Stane is packing more punches than we can probably handle!" Rhodey said as he was firing his repulsors at Michael as he was trying to knock us both out of the sky. Tony eventually came up to us, and fired his repulsors at Michael, temporarily knocking him out of the sky. "We need to get to the ground to regroup, fast!" Tony said as the three of us including the people on the quinjet went to the ground a few miles away from Stark Industries and somewhere where along a beach, where we landed and people were being evacuated due to the racket at Stark industries. The other avengers, including Loki and Thor, went out of the quinjet just as me, Tony and Rhodey landed on the sand, putting the facemasks up. The other avengers gave me some hugs, relieved that I was alright and safe, but they were pissed that Michael had tried to rape me, and were impressed when I smacked him with the briefcase enough to have me get to the roof. Tony was especially happy that Rhodey came along in his iron patriot/war machine suit to help me out. Loki came up to me and held me in his arms, not wanting to let go and he started kissing me senseless, even as the avengers were doing the catcalls and both Rhodey and Stark telling us to 'get a room!' I found out that after I blacked out, Natasha managed to capture one of the men that were attacking us in central park and get him to tell them about why they wanted me. "Ok, focus guys. First off, we need to find a way to keep these people out of harm's way, but it's going to get pretty bad as we go along with this fight." Steve said in his usual serious tone about what we needed to do to Stop Michael once and for all. "it's not going to be a problem evacuating, the only issue is that we can't just fire at him, hoping that it will penetrate the suit he's got on, which he somehow had modified after using the suit that Obadiah used to try and kill Tony, but it has some major weak spots, but we need to have him distracted while someone finds them and takes them out." I said, knowing it was not going to be easy beating him.
"She's right, it won't be easy, but it will be worth it giving Stane what he deserves." Clint added, fastening the arrow heads to his bows. Loki was still angry about what happened while I was kidnapped, but even he was looking forward to kicking Stane's ass straight to Jupiter. Steve introduced himself to Rhodey, getting acquainted with him before the big fight with Michael. "Ok, Stark, Mandy, Rhodes, try and maintain a perimeter, and if Stane somehow gets past the perimeter, turn him back towards the perimeter."- We nodded in understanding- "Loki, Thor, you got the magic and thunder, give everything you got."- Both gods nodded also.-"Barton, get to a roof top and if either Rhodes, Mandy or Stark find a weakness, try everything you can to use an arrow to take that weak spot out."-Tony gave Clint a lift to a rooftop, positioning him to his spot.-"Romanoff, you're with me,"-Natasha nodded too, while Banner was 'suiting up', with clothes tearing off and him becoming bigger and green.-"and hulk, smash!" he finished while hulk smiled, knowing that smashing was his specialty. "Guys, he's coming pretty damn fast!" Rhodey said looking up to a sky via a visual from JARVIS. "Let's rock and roll guys!" I said, with all of us getting into our positions, including me and Rhodey flying into the air towards the perimeter that Steve was going to designate, providing that the police would cooperate with him on that. Loki teleported and Thor used his hammer to fly upwards to a near building. Romanoff and Steve went to downtown to get the perimeter set up. I could tell that hulk was getting ready to smash Stane to the ground. The fight was about to begin, and it was show time!
The fight got started and Steve somehow managed to get the cooperation of the police, and Rhodey even managed to call up some reinforcements to help out with the fighting. But as we were fighting, there were some robotic suits, like the ones from the Stark expo incident, but more deadly than ever, thanks to some modifications that were done to them by Stane and some scientists and engineers who were either willing or forced to work with him. Tony was taking down the robots, while Natasha was helping out with the evacuations, while trying to beat down some robots using some gadgets in her arsenal. I and Rhodey were trying to find the weak spots on Stane's suit while keeping him and the robots out of the streets and in the perimeter, with the other policemen and reinforcements firing their guns at the robots, while keeping the citizens out of harm's way. Hulk even took down a few hundred of Stane's bots, while Thor and Loki were doing their stuff, with Thor throwing some lightning and Loki casting some spells on the robots, controlling some of them before destroying them in the end. Stane was still fighting us while we were evading him. Barton was shooting some arrows in their weak spots. "This is going to take all day if we don't stop Stane and his robots. JARVIS, see if you can find out the weak spots on Stane's suit, we need to pick up the pace in this battle." I asked as I was still battling Michael and his robots. "The only spot that I can think of that's a weak link is his targeting system behind the head, it could slow him down, but it would be more dangerous." JARVIS pointed out. We were just near where Clint was, still shooting at some bots "Ok, Rhodey, I need you to distract Stane while Clint tries to take out the weak spot, which is behind the head, you getting this Clint?" I asked hoping that both of them would get what I said about the weak spot. "Roger that." That came from Rhodey. "You got it!" that came from Clint.
As Stane was distracted, Clint fired an arrow for me containing a small bomb module that would be enough to take out the targeting system while Rhodey would distract him. I caught the arrow, took off the bomb module, activated it and put it on the targeting system. "I got it on, Rhodey, let's go!" I said to him, motioning him to follow me. As Stane started following us, the bomb went off; it destroyed the targeting system, rendering him blind with the facemask on, and he started losing control, crashing into some buildings before finally landing on a building near a music studio. "Nice work, Clint! Remind me to thank you later on!" I said praising Clint. "No problem! Tony's on his way to your location right now along with Loki! Might want to hang on tight in case 'sleeping beauty' starts waking up." He said chuckling. I and Rhodey landed on the rooftop where Michael was still laying there unconscious. Tony and Loki followed suit, planning the next move on Stane while he was knocked out. "That mewling quim will pay for what he's done to you my love." Loki said when he walked up to me. My facemask went up and I kissed Loki. "I know. The only person I want to give myself to is you. You may have scared me shitless before, but that was before you showed me you loved me by helping me overcome my acrophobia, along with some other stuff. And for that, I love you." I said French kissing the love of my life with Rhodey and Tony shaking their heads. "How sweet, I HATE SWEET!" Michael said getting up on his feet and the top half came off allowing him to see the four of us. My facemask came back down as we all got back into battling positions. "So, you must be the man who's keeping little Amanda Stark company." He sneered while looking at Loki. "I am Loki, of Asgard, and you shall pay for touching the future wife of a god!" he said still enraged by what happened to me when Michael nearly raped me. "'God?' This gets somewhat more interesting by the minute." Michael said still sneering at Loki. "Loki, don't do anything crazy, sweetie, he's only winding you up." I said trying to calm Loki down. "No, that puny mortal will not touch what is mine, even though you are not an object." He said. "Seriously dude, you need to kind of chill out here, you being angry could get some of us hurt or worse." Rhodey said. Loki nodded, knowing that Rhodey was right about being calm because he would not tolerate being imprisoned for eternity for doing anything reckless. We heard a familiar roar, and knew that it was hulk, coming to aid us. Michael looked like he was going to pee on himself when he saw hulk going towards him. We knew to get away from there, so Tony and Rhodey shot up in the air with me taking Loki with me as I went up with them. Michael tried shooting at the hulk, but he remembered that his targeting system had been blown up, so he tried getting away by flying, but hulk grabbed his foot and proceeded to do some serious hulk-smashing to him, while we watched, cringing over seeing Stane get turned into a ragdoll. "Damn, that's got to be painful!" Rhodey said, still surprised about what Hulk did. "You have no idea, son of Rhodes." Loki said remembering when he got hulk-smashed like that when he and his chitauri army invaded New York. Michael had the grandfather of all stunned faces when we all landed on the building. He tried getting up, but knew that it was useless. "You really thought that you would stop me, would you?" he asked, still battered from the beating he received. He lifted something on his arm and pressed a few buttons. It took us a few seconds to realize that he had activated a bomb, and like Vanko, it was in his own suit, where the mini arc reactor would be. "Do svidaniya, Everyone." He said as he collapsed. We then notice something flashing red on his chest. "JARVIS, what kind of bomb is in his suit?" I asked. "The bomb is so powerful; it can take out pretty much a whole city." JARVIS said. "We need to get his body away from the city, but where would we put him?" I asked, running out of ideas. "How about we throw him into the sky?" Rhodey suggested. "How will we do that?" Tony asked. "More than likely, who will do that?" Rhodey asked. "I will do it." I said. The three men turned their heads to look at me as if I told them I was pregnant. "No, Mandy, that's suicide!" Tony begged. "I have no other alternative, if I don't come back alive, I love you all, so much." I said solemnly as I grabbed Michael's body and shot up into the sky. "Mandy, what are you doing?!" Steve asked while I was still going up towards a safe range to throw Stane's body. "I'm sorry, but it's the only way to do this without anyone getting killed." I said. As I got up to 45,000 feet, I threw his body. And I ended up being unconscious in the process.
Third person POV
As Mandy's body was falling from the sky, a bright light was showing, indicating that the bomb had blown up. Everyone else closed their eyes, shielding themselves from the light. When it all dissipated, the avengers saw a figure they recognized as Mandy's body still falling. "She did it." Steve said on the ground. They hoped that she would wake up, but they realized that she was falling lifelessly from the sky. "She's not slowing down!" Thor realized. He rolled Mjolnir for a little bit, gaining momentum before flying up to grab Mandy from the sky. He grabbed her and fell with her back down to the ground, with the other avengers following suit. Loki ripped her helmet off, seeing her face, still looking like she was asleep. "Mandy, Please wake up! Mandy!" Loki said about to cry thinking that his future wife was dead. The hulk then roared loudly, startling her back to consciousness.
Mandy's POV
"WHOA, OH!" I shouted waking back up from unconsciousness and seeing everyone around me. Loki wrapped me in his arms with tears coming out of his eyes, and kissed me silly. "Don't you ever do that again!" he said before kissing me again. "What happened? Did we win?" I asked still rattled. "Yeah, Mandy, we won." Tony said with joy. I got back up carefully, with some support from Tony and Loki. "I never thought that the sacrifice play would occur again, this time around Mandy. Never thought she would be the one to do it, but she did and it saved many lives." Rhodey said ruffling my hair affectionately. The other avengers gave me hugs, with Clint shaking my hand, and as it was happening, the citizens were out of the building, congratulating us on a successful battle, with Stane being dead. I felt like a hero in a sense, but I just wanted to do something right. The next few days were a blur, with us getting back to the tower only with Jane scolding me for what I did, as she was watching the news, Pepper telling me that I was going to be an aunt, something that made me happy to no end, and Clint and Natasha finally starting to date. It was weird what happened, but I was glad that earth was safe once again, I just now needed to worry about getting married, and it was not going to be pretty.
* if anyone thought that i was not going to put part of the famous Henry V 'once more unto the breach' speech on there, you would be crazy!
**saw the poster for iron man 3 which had the suit on there, it looks really good!
