Author's Note: Sorry if this chapter is short and stupid. I was in a hurry, pressed way too close to the deadline.
Chapter 5
Agent Maria Hill hurried through the construction site to the far entrance where the alert had come from. Sure enough, there was a tall man in a ragged spangley outfit with the last SHIELD agent on base.
"Captain Rogers, reporting for duty, ma'am," he said.
Well this was unexpected. "Duty?" stammered Hill.
"I hear you need someone to lift a hammer. I don't know if I'm the man for the job or not, but I'm willing to give it a try."
"Um…" said Hill, making a snap decision. "Okay. Come with me." Apparently this was what Coulson wanted these freaks to do, anyway.
She led him to the center of the construction site and stood back with folded arms as he approached the huge hammer. He sucked in a few deep breaths and set his hand to the wooden handle.
He tugged, and the hammer lifted easily off the ground. Hill's mouth fell open. So did Cap's.
"I did it…" he murmured, staring at the hammer in his hand. "I did it!" he shouted again, raising it high in the air.
In a small town in New Mexico, a giant metal destroyer gave a blonde, hulking homeless guy the backhand and sent him flying.
In a yellow lazer protected bed in Azgard, Odin, the Allfather, frowned in his sleep. His son was almost dead, and some dude in a cheesy outfit was holding his hammer. Guess he was going to have to do something after all.
Without any warning, the hammer flew out of Cap's fist, making a bright white arc over the New Mexican desert.
"What…" said everyone in a radius of ten miles.
"What…" said the four prisoners in the interrogation room as the wind gusts tore the roof off and the falling debris cut through the ropes that held them.
"Aw, yiss," cried Stark, as Jarvis deployed and his suit put itself together around him.
"What? How?" began Natasha. "Clint, did you do that?"
"What? I mean, yeah. Of course. Haha." He grinned cheesily. "Leave it to old Clint."
"My hero!" cried Natasha, running to him and hugging him. "Now let's get out of here before the Big Guy blows up."
Stark had already blasted away in a red and gold glory. The last SHIELD agent on base suddenly came bursting through the door to check that the prisoners were secure, only to be knocked out by Natasha. She and Clint hurried out together, Banner close on their heels, stopping only to retrieve his science kit.
In a small town in New Mexico, Phil Coulson's voice could be heard shouting, "Wait! We need to debrief yooooooooooou!"
Author's Note: Sorry I'm late...again. My internet went down last night and didn't come on til now.
Let me say that I had this chapter in mind for this story (and this story) LONG before I ever saw or heard of the Age of Ultron trailer/teaser trailer. If you don't believe me, ask ccgaylord. She knows. That to say, this was my own original mind that came up with this, and Joss Whedon just stole my idea. :P
