The air in England is cloudy and horrible. It stinks of decomposing bodies. Over turned cars and trucks line every street we can see from our safe, little, helicopter. My heart beat speeds up and my eyes dart around the helicopter. "Come on child." Thor grunts at me. He stands above me looking ready for war. Which, for all I knew, we could be entering.
"Me?" I squeak. "I...I..."
"Oh, kid, your not having second thoughts, are you?" Stark asks me. He's so arrogant. I shake my head at him.
"Not at all, I hope you aren't, Stark."
"Dad." He mocks. I roll my eyes and the door opens. I un-buckle my belt and follow Thor out.
We all stand in a circle around James. "So, your mission is simple, shut down the centre creating the deadly chemicals which are creating...that." We look over to see a crowd of purple...animals tearing up something. They moan and I try to cover my ears but my hands only bash the helmet. "The centre is just west of here, Cleo that's that way." He points to the west and I roll my eyes at him. "Now, suit up, Cleo." I gulp and, for once, do as I'm told. "Now have fun." He smiles. "I'll be in touch."
"Which way is the safest? You know...for-"
"It doesn't matter, she'll stick with me and Bruce." Stark interrupts Black Widow. It's not Stark anymore, it's Iron Man.
"No way."
"You will, or I'll drag you personally back to Fury."
I just nod. "So we just go in?"
"Yes, Hulk!" Iron Man shouts to him. He turns his head and nods. "Cleo." Hulk just grins and scoops me up. I scream but in fact it's pretty cool, I mean not many girls my age can honestly say they've been hassled by the Hulk, can they?
He crushes the puny little zombie's as if they were toothpicks. Black Widow and Cross-bow guy fire at them widly but stay right behind us. I push the button and Hulk places his palm flat, allowing me to use it as a pedistool. A silver sleek gun forms in my hand and I fire between his giant green fingers. It's just so damn cool to be doing this. Just wait until the bullies hear about this. "Hulk! Other way!" The guy with the cross-bow screams at us. Hulk turns sharply and I start to lose my balance. My footing slips and I find myself tumbling downwards into the horrid moaning crowd below.
