Harry Potter The Avenger
AN: Thank you to everyone who read and reviewed the previous chapter.
I've had several requests to make my chapters longer, I like the length they are so will be keeping them that way
This will not be a harem story, don't think I can write a good one, however Harry will have several girlfriends/flings throughout the story
I'm following the timeline from the movies, it took two months for Tony to make his suit in the film, from the time he returned, to the point he went back to Afghanistan.
Harry apparates places, he didn't apparate from the helicopter on they way back from Afghanistan as he was magically exhausted still.
Chapter 8:
Harry woke to his phone buzzing, rolling over he grabbed it. "Pepper?" he answered sleepily when he saw the caller ID.
"Harry I need your help" Peppers voice came over worried
Instantly Harry was awake and alert "What's wrong?" he asked sharply setting his phone on speaker so he could get dressed.
"It's Stane" Pepper answered "He's betrayed Tony, he's the one who had him kidnapped, I found evidence of his dealings, I've with Agent Coulson of SHIELD on our way to arrest him, but Tony's not answering his phone, can you go check on him, and make sure he hasn't done anything stupid" Pepper continued
Harry slid his shoes on "I will, call you when I know anything" He said
He could almost see Pepper's grateful smile "Thanks Harry" Then she hung up.
Grabbing his invisibility cloak he swung it around his shoulders and it turned midnight blue, as it had done since he had come to this world, he had work out once he had united the Hallows, the cloak would only be invisible when he wanted it to be otherwise it acted like a normal cloak. The he apparated to Tony's Mansion, normally he apparated to the front door, but after hearing the panic in Pepper's voice he apparated directly into the main room. The lights came on, telling him that Tony was down in his lab, moving quickly he got the just as Tony in his red and gold suit blasted out of the hole in the roof.
James Rhodes stood there watching "Rhodes?" Harry queried with confusion.
The man turned "Mr Potter, the army has been looking for you" he said somewhat accusingly
Harry nodded distractedly not really caring what the army wanted "Where's he gone?" He asked, trying to keep the worry from his voice.
Rhodes laughed "He's gone to try and stop Stane, I'm going to go stop the military from interfering" he flipped open the door to the Audi R8. "I suggest you don't try and help, you'll only get in the way" he ordered. Harry snorted as Rhodes drove off, he wasn't going to stay out of this when one of his friends needed help.
"JARVIS, do you know where Tony has gone?" He asked the room.
The voice of JARVIS answered immediately "He has gone to Stark Industries R&D centre, I suggest that you go and help, the arc reactor he has in isn't designed for that suit, he only has about fifty percent power" JARVIS sounded worried, well as worried as an automated machine could.
Harry swore and concentrated on the area of down town LA where he had seen the R&D centre, with a pop he vanished and reappeared on a high rise several blocks away. His eyes scanned the sky for any sign of Tony but could see nothing. He saw the lights flicker in the R&D building and then, a flash of light the was getting bigger, that would be Tony, Harry thought as he kept half an eye on the building.
Harry heard a crash and turning to look pieces of concrete flew several feet into the air as a large suit pulled itself out the ground. Harry recognised the suit Tony had used in Afghanistan, however it was larger, much larger. Then Harry noticed Pepper standing in front of it, not moving just staring. He swore and was about to apparate in and get her out of trouble when Tony, in his suit came diving out of the sky and picked her up dropping her out of the way before turning to face the grey suit.
Harry apparated next to Pepper, who jumped at turned to look at him. "Harry, you scared me slightly" she said holding her hand to her chest.
Harry smiled apologetically. "Come on, I'll get you out of here" he said wrapping his arm around her.
At Pepper's look Harry shook his head "You're not safe, I'll come back and help Tony" Pepper nodded, not looking happy but at least she seemed to understand.
Harry arrived back at the R&D centre to find a scene of destruction. "Fuck" he swore loudly to himself when he saw people trapped in cars and under pieces of rubble. With a whispered word he conjured black mask that slid over his mouth and nose but let his eyes be totally free but turned his eyes golden rather than green and pulled his hood up.
Quickly he moved over to the closest people who were trapped "Wingardium Leviosa" he muttered with a wave of his hand and lifted the fallen rubble off them. "Damn it" he swore when he saw the young girl had an iron bar in her stomach. He took a step back and pulled the phone from his pocket quickly dialing a number.
"Coulson" he said
"Harry, what's up" Coulson answered.
Harry spoke quickly knowing he needed to get back to help Tony. "I need somewhere I can send injured people"
He heard Coulson talk quickly to someone on his end "Yes, you can send them to my location" he said
Harry nodded glad he wouldn't have to wait "Ok, send me your co-ordinates from your phone" he instructed hoping it wouldn't take long.
Coulson hung up and several moments later a set of numbers appeared in his texts. He turned back to the family and spoke to her parents. "You all need to hold onto her" They followed his instructions without questioning but stared at him in awe obviously in shock. Then concentrating on the co-ordinates he waved his hand over the girls t-shirt and cast "Portus" it glowed blue for a moment before the three of them disappeared. He nodded glad it had worked and turn to go help as many people as he could.
He moved quickly down the path of destruction Tony and whatever it was he was fighting had caused. Anyone stuck inside cars and not hurt in anyway he just broke the door or roof of the car with a well aimed cutting curse and told them to get as far away as possible. The ones who were injured he placed a portkey spell on them and tried to keep families together as much as possible.
He ducked as a car flew past quickly aiming his hand he shouted out "Arresto Momentum" the car immediately slowed and Harry lowered it to the ground as quickly as he dared. He shook his head making his way along the multi-lane highway. Quickly he realised if he tried to save everyone then he would tire himself out and be useless. No the quickest way to end this would be to find the thing that Tony was fighting and defeat it.
He quickly apparated to the tallest building, he could see, as appeared he turned to look out across the city, hoping for fine Tony and whatever it was he was fighting with. Flashing lights told him the position of the emergency services rushing around trying to help, several small fires we're burning, but there were no screams that he could hear, hopefully that meant no-one was seriously hurt.
Instinct made he throw himself to the right and he rolled out of the way just as Tony in his battered suit hit the ground where he had just been crouching. "The great Tony Stark" Harry turned to see the larger version of Tony's original suit standing there. "You walked out of the sand, now it's time to see you walk out of fire." the right arm of the construction rose and flames leapt out of the end.
Harry raised his hand and shouted "Protego" the shimmering blue shield rose and the flames impacted upon it causing the shield to flare and the flames spread around the shield harmlessly. Harry turned to glance at Tony who had pushed himself upright on his elbows his eyes staring and the shield
"You Ok?" Harry asked worriedly.
Tony shrugged shaking his head to stop himself from staring"No idea, don't have a choice though Stane has to be stopped, thanks by the way" Harry nodded and dropped the shield he had been holding as the flames stopped. Stane, as Harry now knew was in the suit started to laugh "Well you can stop fire...but what about these!" he ended with a shout. His shoulders expanded and missiles shot out heading straight for Harry and Tony. "Impedimenta" Harry shouted stopping the missiles in mid-air before yelling "Protego Maxima" The missiles had stopped in mid-air and Harry conjured the shield just before the missiles exploded.
The force of the explosion made Harry's shield flare and spark, the shrapnel just impacting the shield and falling too the ground. Stane didn't have a shield so his suit was peppered with shrapnel, not that that affected it much, the explosion however threw his suit several feet backwards off it's feet.
Noticing Stane would be out for several moments, Harry turned to look at Tony "You Ok?" he asked worriedly now he had a proper look at the state of Tony's Suit.
"I'm good" Tony answered as he glanced at Stane who was getting up. "And I've got a plan to finish this" If Tony's face was visible Harry would have sworn there was a cocky grin there.
"Tony don't..." he started before Tony activated the thrusters on the bottom of his suit and had to cover his face as Stane did the same to follow him "..Do anything stupid" he finished with a resigned sigh as the two shot off into the sky. Harry watched them, waiting to see where they would come down.
He noticed them falling, about half a kilometre away, and the were falling fast, the larger one. Stane harry thought was falling faster while Tony was trying to slow his descent, not that it was working much. With a crash they both impacted the roof of the R&D centre of Stark Industries. Tony somewhat more graceful, but not much. Harry turned his cloak invisible and apparated to the same building but kept himself hidden, he couldn't but feel it wasn't over, bad guys we're never beaten that easily.
Tony seemed to think it was over, but then his suit was sparking dangerously, so not having much choice Tony ripped off the hand of his suit as was taking the helmet off when Stane rose up behind him, Tony ducked and spun raising his hand to fire his repulsor beam only to find the hand he had raised was the one from which he had removed his armour. Before Harry could move to help, Stane he thrown Tony across the roof, Tony struggled to push himself upright, his arc reactor in his chest fading.
"So ends the great Tony Stark" Stane said mockingly raising his arm to shoot fire, but in that moment he spoke was all the time Harry needed to appear next to Tony and raise a shield which the flames flared against.
"What do you need?" Harry asked Tony,as Tony pulled the helmet and then chest piece of his suit off, it was broken, probably beyond repair.
"The reactor in his chest, it's the only other one there is" Tony gasped out.
Harry's eyes gleamed with the beginnings of a plan, "How's it held in?" he asked not wanting to damage the reactor, not when Tony needed it. "Just by some wires the same as mine, it's designed to come out if it needs to, especially if he used my designs" Tony replied his voice fading, his eyes glazing over with pain.
Harry nodded "Will it kill him if it comes out while he is in the suit?" Harry asked. Tony shrugged slightly "I'm not sure, it shouldn't, but it depends on the suit" Harry nodded the light from Tony's chest was fading fast, and he was getting pale and Harry could feel Tony's life force begin to slip away.
As the flames from Stane's suit died down Harry turned and raised his wand "How are you still alive, what are you?" Stane asked anger and confusion filling his voice.
"I'm special" was all Harry said with complete seriousness but a smirk on his face.
Stane laughed "We'll see about that" he said angrily and raised his arm, but before he could fire Harry snapped his hand up and shouted "Accio Arc Reactor" The reactor is Stane's chest twitched before jumping across the roof and Harry plucked it out of the air with ease.
Stane's suit froze in place all the limbs locking before it fell to the ground with a crash. With a nod of satisfaction that Stane wouldn't be able to get out without help, Harry turned back to help Tony.
He swore when he saw the light from the Arc Reactor had all but gone out, moving quickly and hoping that this would work, Harry pulled the reactor case from Tony's chest, with a twist the reactor came lose, Harry sighed in relief when he saw that the wires were colour coded and matched the ones that came from Stane's suit.
Working quickly he attached the reactor he had gotten from Stane's suit and breathed out a sigh of relief when it lit up. He was just placing it back into Tony's chest when Tony woke up eyes wide and breathing heavily as if he'd just been running.
"What happened?" He asked sitting up. Harry glanced over his shoulder to where Stane was still locking inside his suit. Tony looked down at the reactor in his chest, then to the one on the floor and then to the frozen suit and couldn't help but laugh in surprise and relief. Tony then pushed himself to his feet and moved over to Stane's suit pulling off the helmet. "Never fuck with a Stark" Tony growled before punching Stane in the face. Harry looked up as a pair of helicopters circled overhead spotlights shining down on the three of them.
Heimdall watched all of these events with interest. The warlock was like nothing he had seen before, he didn't seem to care to just fight, he wanted to keep people safe as well, from what he remembered warlocks never cared about that in the past.
