THE LAST AVENGERS: Book 1: Oblivion and Injustice.
Chapter 1: Alert
The Avengers Mansion rang with the sound of the intruder alarm. Steve Rogers slipped on his winged blue mask and seized his star spangled shield. He stepped into the corridor joined by T'Challa- the Black Panther, and Tony Stark, better known as Iron Man, who was just slipping on his cybernetic helmet.
"Who is it?" Asked Stark, "I heard a commotion…"
"I think we're under attack!" Yelled Rogers, now in the full garb of Captain America, "Who's down there? That's not an Avenger, it's…"
A bullet flew up and buried itself in T'Challa's chest. Panther fell back and tripped, smashing through the window! Two men in body armour and balaclavas charged up! Captain America accurately threw his shield, which knocked one hurtling out of the window! He then punched the other in the stomach and head butted him but the thug did not collapse, simply throwing off his mask to reveal…
"You… you're Nighthawk, an old enemy of Daredevil among others!" exclaimed America and he kicked Nighthawk along the corridor and the villain crumpled up, senseless!
America activated an Avengers Communicator and spoke into it:
"To all Avengers, this is Steve Rogers, Captain America. The Mansion is under attack with casualties! Requesting immediate assistance…"
Suddenly, he turned… Iron Man's helmet lay at his feet, a bullet in the back of the hero's head! Cap spun round and then a cloaked and hooded figure on a glider device smashed in through the wall, hurling grenades shape like pumpkins!
"The Green Goblin!" Cried Steve and then everything went black…
Yellow Jacket was dashing across the Mansion lawns alongside Hawkeye and Warbird…
"Come on," Spat Jacket, "Clint, get outta here… I'll hold the attacker's off! There's too many for us to beat but if I get us time to…"
Then the attackers smashed out, jet propelled flying humanoid robots… lightweight re-programmed sentinels!
The 3 Avengers stood, facing seventy descending sentinels!
"This is it, Hank, Clint… our last stand," Whispered Warbird and the sentinels smashed into them!
Then they heard a furious cry:
"AVENGER'S ASSEMBLE!" And something rocketed past them, a blur, smashing THROUGH sentinels! The Avengers together stormed into them, spurred on by Quicksilver's attack, the reinforcements, and the full Avengers' force in fact, battled on!
"We can win this!" Yelled Hawkeye, "But we have to fight to our maximums!"
Then, there was a terrible blast, a flash of light… and the Avengers mansion and everything around it was obliterated!
Clint Barton opened his eyes… he remembered, he remembered… pain. He looked around at the turmoil engulfing him. Destroyed sentinels and massacred Avengers alike…
"Is anyone… alive?" He coughed and tried to move, but he couldn't stand up.
"Clint?" Came a wheezing gasp from above and Barton looked into the face of a much blooded Steve Rogers, his uniform shredded, helping along the weak and bleeding Pietro Maximoff, Quicksilver.
"Clint…" Moaned Pietro, "it's over… we're the last ones… the Avengers… are finished!"
