Ashley's POV- Final Battle
A week later, I was finally allowed to go on my first mission. Basically on the mission, all I had to do was find the Gryffindor sword, if it is where we thought it was. However, Nick kept telling me to go nice and slow and not to strain my leg to much and to keep wearing my brace.
"Ashley! Get back here right now!" Nick Fury suddenly yelled in my ear.
"Why? I haven't even gotten to the location yet." I asked, very confused.
"Loki is on Earth, he is attacking New York City along with Lucius and Draco! They are all attacking New York the others are there right now, but I need you to be there to fight the wizards!" Nick yelled as an explosion was heard behind him.
I was frozen in fear and shock for a few seconds, "Nick if I get the sword I can beat them easier! Please let me get it, I promise I will be there as soon as possible."
Before I got an answer, I hit the back of my glove, boarded my flying silver board, and flew at light speed to the place where we thought the sword was. Then when I got there, I ran upstairs searching everywhere for the ancient sword. It was nowhere to be found.
"Nick, it's not here!" I yelled frantically, still searching; hopelessly I reached into my pocked pulled out my liquid luck and drank the whole potion.
"What? It has to be there!" Another explosion and gunfire "Never mind that, get back here now!" Nick ordered me.
There was one room that I had not checked, so I threw that door open and saw about one thousand sculptures of soldiers, tigers, gigantic eagles, and winged lions.
Momentarily I was stunned by the craftsmanship of all of the sculptures, the details and how strong the metal-rock was, how capable they would be in a fight… in a war. I smiled slowly.
"Nick, do you think we could need back up?" I asked, running my hand over the eagles.
"Of course! That would be fantastic, but there is no way you could control all of those at once!" Nick said bewilderedly.
I shook my head, "No, but magic can." I grinned pulling my wand out raising both my arms, shutting my eyes, trying to bring all of the power possible to my wand as I whispered, "Piertotum Locomotor."
At once the sculptures started to move their limbs, blink their eyes, and stretch their muscles. They all looked at me, preparing to serve the person that brought them to life.
"The Earth is threatened! Help us to defend it! Protect myself and the avengers as well as yourselves! Are you going to help us?" I asked loudly; having an odd moment of déjà vu.
Every one of them raised their weapons, raised a wing, or stomped their feet in approval. I nodded, looking around at the crowd.
"Alright, then follow me." I walked back to my board, jumping on it, "Let's have half of you stay here, just in case we need some back up." I turned back to them. They nodded, splitting themselves up. "Let's go." I started flying back to New York City.
When we arrived at New York City arriving beside the five avengers, the soldiers stopped behind me preparing to attack the four men and one hulk.
"Wait!" I told them. "These are the people you don't attack!" I pointed to the sky, "Those are the people you attack now go!"
Nodding briefly they all ran after and started to fight Loki's army.
I turned back to the avengers, "Sorry I'm late." I told them.
"It's alright, Hawkeye I need you to be on top buildings shooting anything that flies, Tony get in the sky and shoot down the ones coming in, Thor go fight with your brother, Hulk… smash and Ashley you stay down here-" Captain America stopped as a huge explosion came from Lucius on his broom.
"I'll go up there?" I asked.
"Yes, that is a good idea." Cap nodded, before starting to fight some people on foot. "Be careful all of you." We nodded before all turning to go to the areas Cap said to go to.
I jumped on my board, flying over to where Lucius was, close to Draco. I pulled out my wand without hesitation.
"Stupefy!" I yelled intercepting the confringo curse that had just came from Lucius's wand at a nearby building. The spells erupted together, evaporating in the air.
"Oh, well if it isn't the girl of honor!" Lucius taunted turning the wand away from the building and to me. "Crucio!"
"Protego!" I yelled, "Lucius, Draco, why are you doing this?" I demanded an answer.
"We don't have to tell you anything! Wingardium Leviosa!" Lucius made a car fly after me.
"Reducto!" I yelled the car turned to ash. "Alright fine! Let's dance!" I yelled flying over the ocean, trying to lose him.
"Dammit! Stay still!" Lucius tried to point his wand at me but I kept swerving to the sides.
Then, a horribly familiar fire burst of out the end of Lucius's wand. It was no normal fire, it was a deadly fire that was forming a gigantic pack of fiery beasts: Flaming serpents, chimaeras, and dragons rose and fell and rose again. This was fiendfyre and it was storming after me.
The fire started to expand and fly towards the city, I cannot let that happen.
"Aguamenti! Aqua Eructo!" I yelled in an attempt to destroy the fire.
I kept firing those spells until I decided that jumping into the ocean would be the only option, so I did just that. The fire followed me straight into the water and instantly dissolved into nothing. I let myself smile before I realized that I could not breathe.
"Ascendio!" I mouthed pointing up towards my board.
Instantly, I was thrown up onto the board; coughing, gasping, and clinging onto my board to not fall back into the water.
" Dad! Father, no!" A crying male voice said in complete disparity.
I turned my head to the side to see Lucius Malfoy limp against his sons shoulder. Lucius was motionless, pale, and lifeless. Using all of my strength, I climbed up on my board and flew slowly over to them.
"Draco…" I whispered.
"No! This is your fault!" Draco looked up at me with tears covering his face.
"Draco, he used the fiendfyre curse that backfires and kills the caster. You should know this." Given his best friend died of the same cause.
"I don't want to hear it! Stay away from us!"Draco yelled, shooing me away.
Before I could say anything else, Draco apparated with his father, I sighed.
After that, I flew back to join the battle once again. Sending spells and charms to anyone who was hurting the city.
"Ashley, you have company and Tony is busy. Turn around." Nick said in my ear.
I turned my board around to see a huge flying snake-like machine. That was coming right towards me with multiple purple-blue Egyptian looking flying men with many more following him.
"Stupefy! Reducto!" I yelled at the men flying towards me, "Incendio! Expluso!"
After about ten minutes of flying around the enormous machine, it finally went down crashing into the ground with a loud groan. A few more of these went by before they stopped coming.
"Citizens are being held in a building, find it and save them." Nick commanded me. I nodded, going into the dark room and seeing where the people were being held captive.
Before I flew over to the building, braking into the window; fighting on foot for the first time since my surgery. I thought nothing of taking it slow as I kicked and punched Loki's men.
"Get out everyone! Get into another building! Go!" I yelled at the citizens. They all immediately ran out of the front doors and into another building.
One man grabbed me around the neck and I pointed my wand at him. "Flipendo!" The man was instantly thrown off his feet as the blue curse hit him.
Suddenly, a man caught me off guard and I was knocked out of the building; onto the street. I was like a rag doll, being flipped over and over hitting the hard cement over and over again until I was finally stopped when a pair of stone arms caught me.
My head fell forward I was about to pass out, but the arms shook my violently. I looked up to see who my rescuer was; one of the stone soldiers I had brought to life. It stares down at me as if to say, what are you doing we are in a bloody war? You can't be passing out.
I unlatched his arms from around me and fell forward onto the black cement.
"Thank you." I muttered to the stone man.
Then, I realized how much damage this war had caused. There were buildings torn in half, cars in pieces, and fires everywhere I looked. I saw man more of Loki's men fighting the soldiers I had jinxed, but my number of soldiers, lions, tigers, and eagles were getting smaller and smaller by the second. This had to end, before anyone else died. We had to find Loki and end this.
"Will you call for the rest of the soldiers?" I asked, getting up, and turning towards the soldier. The stone man nodded and started running back to where I found them all; where I had left the backups.
Suddenly, a body was thrown onto a car; caving the roof in on impacted. Then I saw that he had a Captain American uniform on. Steve stood up, jumping off the car, looked around the area he was in, and caught my stare; Steve gasped but said nothing.
"Are you okay?" I asked, forgetting about my anger at him completely; it all seemed stupid now. Something in me knew that the humble Steven Rodgers would never kiss another woman. I walked to stand in front of him.
Steve nodded, "Are you?"
"I've been better." I shrugged; suddenly realizing how much pain I was in, in my head alone.
"I can tell." Steve looked me over.
I rolled my eyes, "Thanks." I smiled.
"Oh, I didn't mean-"Steve started to explain himself.
I shook my head, "its okay I know you didn't mean it in a bad way."
"I am still sorry." Steve looked at his feet. "About everything. Ash, I didn't kiss her-"
I cut him off again, "I know. Something in me knew that you would never do that. I was just blinded by anger. I am sorry."
Steve hesitantly placed a hand on my shoulder, "You have nothing to apologize for, Ashley."
"But I do, I accused you of something you didn't do, I told you I didn't respect you, and I slapped you." I shook my head, looking at my feet. "I am sorry, Steve."
"Ashley," Steve's voice made me look up at him. He didn't say anything else and he didn't need to, Steve was telling me all I needed to know by his loving gaze out of his crystal blue eyes.
I couldn't tell you who leant in, or who kissed who, I simply remember wrapping my arms around his shoulders and hugging him while we kissed on a battlefield. When we broke apart, Steve smiled at me and I realized I smiled back.
However, our moment was ruined when we saw Loki, he was on a flying on board as his men were, he is in his normal slytherian colored tux, and his cane in one hand… with what is that? Could that be?
In his left hand he had the sword of Godric Gryffindor.
Suddenly, Thor came rushing towards him swinging his hammer as lighting started too radiated off of it.
"Thor, no! Loki has the sword!" I screamed, running forward a little.
Thor took no notice at my warning as he jumped; preparing to whack Loki in the head, but then Loki simply raised the sword and cut Thor in the stomach while flinging him back into the concrete street.
Loki then turned to me; his cane glowing blue before he shot a spell like blue orb at me.
"Protego!" I yelled. The shield charm protected me and even rebounded the curse right back at him. Loki was hit square in the chest and he flung back off his flying board.
"How dare you!" Loki screamed I floated back to the ground.
However, before he could do anything Hulk ran past Thor, Cap, and I. Hulk started smashing the alien Egyptian men, that had suddenly appeared to protect their leader, to get to Loki.
Thor, Captain America, and I all started to fight on foot. After a few minutes of this, I suddenly realized that we were all exhausted and if this many men kept coming, and at this rate, we would lose. Steve and I glanced at each other, both nodding.
Pulling my wand out once again, I made a quick whipping circle around Steve, Hulk, Loki, Thor, and I so we did not get hurt. Then, I pointed at the air.
"Immobulus!" Loki's men were immobile in a matter of a second.
After that, we all looked at Loki as Hawkeye, carrying a passed out Tony, ran up behind us.
Loki held up the sword and cane, "Expelliarmus!" I said as the cane flew back and Thor caught it and I caught the sword.
Hulk walked forward, his giant green hands in fist, towards Loki.
"No! Enough! I am a god of Asgard! I am higher than each and every one of you! I will not be bullied by you mongrels, you will bow before-"Loki's speech was suddenly cut off as Hulk grabbed him by the legs and started to throw him into the ground repeatedly.
I couldn't help but smile at the cleverness, wittiness, and the bewildered affect it had on us all.
"Smash." Hulk said, nodding happily down at Loki.
When Loki was passed out, magically handcuffed, and safely in Hulk's arms; so that he would not get away, we turned to Tony. I was about to wake him up with a charm, but Hulk thought nothing of that as he growled in Tony's face.
Instantly, Tony's eyes were opened and he was panting for air.
"Damn! Oh, hi guys. What happened?" Tony was panicked, "Oh crap, did somebody kiss me? Great! Thanks a lot! Well was it at least, Ashley?" He looked around at me then started talking to me, "I am glad I didn't die. I wanted to have some of that shawarma stuff! I have no idea what it is, but I would like to try it. You know, there is a place down the street, if it has not been blown up. What do you say guys? Let's go get some shawarma."Tony rambled.
We all laughed in spite of the situation. Then, beaten up, bruised, and bloody we walked in a line back to Stark Tower. Several cameras took pictures of us as a team. I didn't mind it; everyone should be a part of this moment.
From that moment on, the wizards lived in peace with muggles, the Avengers helped clean up the city, we all received a key to the city, and we worked for the President of the United States as well as the Queen of England. Together we stood through it all. Together we will stand through anything that tries to invade our world.
After weeks of press, plaques of honor, thanks for the people and television appearances, the Avengers all walked to the middle of Central Park in New York.
We nodded wordlessly to each other as Thor and Loki disappeared back to Asgard, Bruce, Tony, and Hawkeye climbed into one of Tony's fancy convertibles, and Steve walked me over to a motorcycle he had been given by the President himself.
The Avengers were all going there different ways, but I knew when the Earth was in trouble again, we would all assemble together.
Steve and I sped off in our own direction, and as I lay my head on Steve's leather jacket I couldn't help but be smile, happy that I had joined the Men in Tights.
