AN: Tumblr prompt: Could you write gray ghost where the Avengers meet Valerie and Danny as phantom and red huntress?

Drabble 98-Power Couple

"Who...What am I looking at?" Iron Man asked to nobody in particular as a red blur zoomed by, being followed by a green blur, and then a sort of glowing one.

It was a warm day in Queens, which is not unusual considering it was late summer, but the chill that was running down the hero's spine was not welcoming.

The green blur shot at the red one, and it-they-dodged the blast by stopping completely midair and backflipping over their hovercraft.

"Don't you think we should help them?" Clint asked.

"How can we help them when we don't know who the bad guy is?" Natasha pointed out. "How do we know that they're not all bad? It could be a turf war."

"Some turf war," Cap stated.

"Well, I for one am always ready to crash a good party," said Iron Man, right before blasting off and chasing after the figures. Clint just sighed and shook his head as he loaded up an arrow.

"Well, it could be worse," he said.

"How?" Steve asked. Just then, the glowing figure that had been chasing the other two crashed into the street beside them.

"Like that, maybe?" Clint replied. Steve and Natasha ignored him as they ran to the person's aid. Powers or not, that was a pretty hard hit. It would probably take some time to get his bearings.

"What the hell?" Clint muttered as they came up to the...The kid. He was just a teenager, no older than maybe sixteen. He had stark white hair and toxic green eyes that blinked a couple of times before recognition was in them once more. Realization as well.

"Ow," he groaned as he stood back up. He winced as he bent back, popping his vertebrae and then shaking it off. He didn't waste anytime returning to the fight above them, where Iron Man and the red blur were cornering the green one. When the kid came up behind the green one, he put it in a sort of chokehold and took a nosedive, sending both of them into the ground and creating a small crater.

"Who are these guys?" Clint asked, bewildered at the move the kid had just done. He gets having to sometimes hurt yourself to hurt the bad guy, but he just took a massive hit, and then to willingly take another one with possibly more force than the last? He jsut couldn't comprehend why anyone would do such a thing. Especially when there is more than one way to skin a cat.

"Val, now!" The boy shouted, quickly hopping out of the way. A second later, there was a bright light, and the green figure was gone. The girl in red capped a sort of containment unit and handed it to the boy, who strapped it to his hip. Then they high-fived.

"Who are you guys?" Iron Man asked as he touched down in between the strangers and his friends. He hadn't said it in a hostile way. He was genuinely curious, but the two strangers seemed wary of the superheros anyway. Especially the one in red, who stepped in front of the glowing boy and held her gun up to them. Behind him, Tony heard a small, "told you so," from Natasha, and honestly? He was not having it right now.

"Babe, come on, they're superheroes," The glowing one said, bouncing up and down excitedly. For a teenager he sure liked to act like a five year old.

"I don't care who they are. They're not gonna step any further," the one in red said menacingly. She was as scary as Natasha, and nobody was really willing to challenge her.

"We just have a couple of questions," Steve said, holding a calm hand up to show her that they were in fact not going to do anything. "You did kind of just come out of nowhere."

Behind the one in red, the glowing kid had stars in his eyes. He seemed more excited than ever to see Captain America, and was whispering under his breath to his companion, who, for a split second, seemed more like a mom than a warrior.

"Who are you guys?" Clint asked, hooking his bow to his back.

"Red Huntress," she answered. "This here is Phantom." Her answer was short and clipped. Very much to the point, once again letting them all know she was not playing games. "And you all are the Avengers, all up the government's ass."

"We're not with any government," Iron Man defended. "And trust me, we're not really buddy-buddy with S.H.I.E.L.D. either."

Red Huntress didn't say anything for a moment. They waited one beat...Three beats. Then her gun powered down and was put away. Her stance relaxed a bit, but it was obvious her guard was still up.

That movement seemed to be all Phantom needed to spring forward to Captain America and shake his hand, talking a million miles a second. Red Huntress pulled away her mask, revealing beautiful dark skin and big, curly hair as she smiled and rolled her eyes at Phantom. Steve looked like he didn't really know what to do with all the attention centered around him. It was almsot comical to watch.

"Sorry about him, he gets excited when he meets his childhood heroes," she said. She stepped forward to shake Iron Man's hand. He pulled his helmet back as well and smiled down at her and took it.

"So what's your name?" He asked.

"Name's Valerie, and that's my overexcited puppy dog boyfriend, Danny."

"Cool. Would you like to join us for some schwarma?"

"We would love to."
