Chapter 11

Hermione and Harry sat on the bench in the aircraft as Steve stood. Harry was smirking as Agent Coulson asked if Steve would sign some Captain America cards. He was just plain shocked that there were cards about him. Hermione had to try not to laugh at his expression. Soon the plane started to descend. Hermione was starving but had to wait until they got in to wherever they were going to have her Oreos. Harry chuckled as she looked longingly at the bag. He leaned over.

"I brought the peanut butter also." He said quietly. Hermione's eyes brightened as the landed.

They stepped off the plane to see that they were on what looked like carriers the Marines used. Steve looked to the side and saw a man walking over slowly. Hermione watched as he shook hands and he introduced himself as Bruce Banner. Hermione was about to just eat the Oreos and peanut butter there when a woman with short curly red hair near. She smiled at Hermione and Harry.

"You must be Hermione Granger and Harry Potter." The two nodded. "I'm Natasha Romanoff." Steve walked over along with Bruce. The introductions happened again.

"So is there anywhere I can sit down?" Hermione asked quickly, looking at the duffle bag. Harry sighed.

"I would hurry. She's very moody." Harry said and Hermione stuck her tongue out.

"Yeah come wi-" Suddenly the carrier shook and they looked over. The water was churning and it started to rise. "Yeah, just follow me. There's a table in the main area."

The four others followed her into the building and she led them to a table raised just above a whole bunch of computers and workers. Harry set the bag down in front of Hermione as she sat. Steve and Harry watched in amusement as she practically ripped oven the zipper. Bruce and Natasha watched in curiosity and then shock as she pulled out a jar of peanut butter and some Oreos.

"Why?" Bruce asked. Hermione was too busy eating to answer so Steve did.

"She's pregnant and keeps craving Oreos and peanut butter."

"That's why she's so moody." Harry said with a smile. Hermione glared at him.

"Keep saying that and you won't be named godfather. And I'll tell Andi." Hermione said before dipping another cookie in the peanut butter jar.

"Oh, so you're not the father." Natasha said to Harry and he shook his head before pointing at Steve who was busy grabbing some water out of the duffle and handing it to Hermione.

"You should see her back home. She can eat a whole bag of Oreos and half a jar of peanut butter in one sitting." Steve said and Hermione nodded while Harry laughed.

"Ah, Steve." A voice said. It was Nick. He looked over at Harry who held out a hand.

"Harry Potter." They shook before Harry turned to his best friend. "You were right Hermione, just like Mad-Eye." Hermione shrugged and Nick looked at the young witch. He raised an eyebrow and Steve mouthed 'pregnant'. He looked startled for a second before his face turned back to a neutral mask. He turned back to Harry.

"So you're Dorea and Charlus grandson?" Nick asked and Harry nodded. "When I became Director I was briefed about the past of SHIELD. They were mentioned in glowing terms. I'm sad I didn't get to meet them."

Harry shrugged but thanked him. Hermione put the Oreos and peanut butter away.

"Are you done now?" Steve asked and she nodded. "You ate half the bag this time."

"Wasn't as hungry I guess."

Harry smiled at her before turning to Nick. "So Director Fury, what is it that Hermione and I have to do? What's our part?" Hermione could tell he was now in war mode. He stood straight and looked Nick right in his…eye. His tone serious.

"Come with me and I'll explain." Nick said. Hermione stood up and followed Harry and Nick, though she touched Steve's cheek before leaving. Nick paused for a second.

"Natasha, show Banner where he's working. Steve come with us also."

…

Hermione sighed as she watched Harry and Steve hurry out. Apparently Loki had been spotted in Germany and they wanted Hermione to stay behind. The only one staying behind was Bruce. Nick was also but he had some other stuff to do. Hermione decided to go back to the table and read a book she had packed. As she sat, a woman with brown hair tied up came over.

"I'm Maria Hill." She said and Hermione smiled.

"Hermione Granger."

"Can I ask something?" Hermione nodded. "I overheard what Rogers said and I was wondering, if you're pregnant, why are you here? I don't mean to be rude but something might happen to the baby."

Hermione smiled. "You sound like Steve. Yes I know the danger but it's in my nature not to back down. If it's too dangerous I'll find a way to sit back and help."

Maria nodded. "You know, when I was younger I mixed Oreos and peanut butter also. I put the peanut butter inside the cookie though." Hermione laughed.

"I'll try that sometime." She said with a smile and Maria returned the gesture before going back to her station.

A few hours later Hermione was starting to fall asleep, her hand the only thing keeping her head from hitting the table. Maria watched in amusement as her head kept almost slipping. Hermione's head finally laid on the table and the Agent chuckled but she wasn't going to wake up the tired girl. Maria looked up to see Rogers and Harry walking over. Steve smiled slightly at the sight before going over to wake her.

"Love, wake up." Steve whispered and Hermione sighed. When she saw it was Steve she sat up instantly. Harry shook his head.

"What took you guys so long? How hard is it to catch a damn demi-god?" She demanded.

"Well there was a little trouble." Steve said and Hermione narrowed her eyes.

"What kind of trouble?"

"Uh oh." Harry muttered at her tone. He decided to help his friend who was probably about to be torn apart by Hermione.

"Hermione, it wasn't anything big." Harry said and Hermione turned her fierce gaze at him. He was so used to it that he didn't even flinch. "We got Loki with the help of Tony Stark, or Iron Man, when Thor came and tried to take him back to Asgard. He almost succeed but…" He broke off and looked at Steve. Hermione followed his gaze and she raised an eyebrow at her boyfriend.

"But?"

"Stark and I were able to stop him. But there was a fight. Good news, Thor is helping now."

Hermione took some deep breaths after he stopped talking. She knew too much stress would be bad so she tried to calm. Thankfully she succeeded.

"Okay, I'm just glad you're okay."

Hermione spent three days trying her best to keep Steve and Stark from killing each other. She also spent time with Harry and surprisingly Natasha Romanoff. The two girls hit it off instantly and Hermione listened to her as she worried about Clint Barton, her partner who had been brain washed by Loki. In turn Hermione explained what she thought it would feel like. She explained the imperious curse. She told Natasha that they would find him and save him, she was positive. Harry would join in on their conversations and many times you would find the three laughing over embarrassing experiences.

Hermione was talking to Harry when it happened. The air born carrier started shaking violently. Nick ran over. "Harry we need your help. Loki's minions have attacked the carrier and we think they're going to try to get Loki back. Hermione you need to stay here." Hermione frowned but stayed seated. Harry squeezed her shoulder before following Nick.

It felt like hours that she sat there. She could feel Maria keeping a close eye on her so she didn't even try to get up. Hermione didn't know if Steve and Harry were alive still. She didn't know if her new friend was injured. She didn't know anything and Hermione hated it. She sighed just as the carrier stopped shaking. Looking around, she hoped that it was a good thing. She sat up straighter as she waited for someone, anyone, to walk over and tell her that everything was fine. That she didn't need to worry.

Finally Harry appeared. Hermione shot over to him and hugged her best friend tightly which he returned. They didn't say anything, they just hugged. Hermione heard some noise behind her and turned around. It was Steve and Stark. She darted to Steve, faster than anyone could, and threw her arms around him, pulling his head down and kissing him fiercely. She pulled back.

"What the bloody hell happened?" She demanded just as Nick came over. His face was grim and he gestured for them all to sit.

Nick tossed some cards on the table top. Hermione saw pictures of Steve in his Captain America costume and her quick mind realized what had happened.

"Is he dead?" She asked quietly and everyone looked at her. She only stared at Nick.

"Yes." He turned to the others. "Agent Coulson died believing that the Avengers could be a team. He believed in hope. Don't let his death be in vain." Nick then left.

It was quiet until Hermione spoke suddenly. "He's right." She was stared at again but she just pinched the bridge of her nose. "I understand death. I've seen enough of it. The worst thing you can do is repay someone's sacrifice by doing nothing. Didn't Remus say something like that to you in third year?"

"Yes." He whispered.

"We need a plan. I have an idea that will help all of you but only if we work together." Her voice raised and hardened. "Got it?"

Surprisingly it was Tony Stark that spoke up. "What do we need to do?"

"First we need Natasha."

"I'm here." Hermione looked over to see Natasha and who Hermione guessed was Clint Barton. He was rubbing his head.

"Good. Now, Harry you remember that charm we learned? Creating an invisible camera and radio." Harry realized what she wanted him to do.

"Yeah, I remember. Do each of them get one?"

"Yes. I'm staying behind but it will help me help all of you."

"I know Loki is going to New York." Natasha said and Hermione nodded.

"He would want somewhere big to go through with his plan. Somewhere his ego can be stroked, like a place with his name." Tony's said before his eyes widened. "Son of a bitch."

"I need you each to stand in front of me and Harry." Hermione commanded and they did. The two magicals took out there wands. "Now this is going to feel weird. We are putting an invisible camera and radio on you. The camera goes on your eyes, and the radio in your ear so you can talk to me and I can see what you are doing."

They all shivered when a sudden cool feeling hit their faces. Hermione put one on Harry too. They all went to suit up but Hermione held Steve back. "Stay safe." She whispered. "We both need you back." Hermione placed his hand on her stomach before he leaned down and gave her a kiss.

"I promise." He murmured before leaving.

Hermione strode to one of the computers. Casting Prior Incantato, the numbers that she got from casting the last spell appeared. She instantly went onto the computer and typed them on the keyboard. Five screens appeared. One had Steve picking up his shield, another was of Tony putting on his mask, and thankfully the camera could see through it. The third was of Natasha walking down a hall, Clint's was him picking up his bow and finally the last one was of Harry walking out of a room. Hermione pressed a key and spoke.

"Hey can you guys hear me?" Hermione said. They all gave affirmation. "Good. Let's do this."

...

So I made up the spell they used to create the cameras and radios. You know my friend wanted me to have Hermione fight, get injured, and lose the baby. I was like, hell no! This is important! Read and Review!
