Thor frowned, yet held his tongue, his brother deserved the anger the young woman held for him, this was one time he would not come to his brother's defense. Instead, he watched as she stood up, the staff clutched in her hands glowing even brighter.
Kagome hissed as the magic of the staff tried, even now, to sink into her skin and take her over. With a snort and a flare of power, she smirked as it pulled in on itself. She turned to Thor and gave him a small tired smile, "I think it's about time we wrap this shin dig up." Without waiting for a response, she made her way towards the machine and with a gleeful smile, she jammed the staff towards the barrier, pushing some of her own powers into it, and watched as it slowly, but surely made its way through the barrier.
The barrier sizzled and tried to resist, but she would have none of that, she glanced behind her, and arched a brow, "A little help would be nice." She rolled her eyes as Thor came up behind her and added his Godly strength to her wavering one. It sunk even deeper into the barrier, a hair's breath away from pricing the damn cube, thus shutting down the portal.
"Wait!" They both paused as Tony's loud voice spilt their ears, all but forgetting they had the ear pieces in. With a wince, she and Thor paused their actions, "What?!" She snapped, tired and more then ready to get this whole fiasco over with.
Tony's low chuckle met her ears, "We got a problem, a nuke, heading this way… I have an idea on how to get rid of it though." She grit her teeth, knowing General Fury and his damn council or whatever the hell they liked to be called, had a hand in this.
"Hurry up, then, otherwise, I can't keep my promise, though you better not die yourself." It was true, the damn staff and barrier were draining her power, sucking it from her very soul.
Thor frowned as she settled a bit more of her weight on him, was this staff truly that bad? He was startled out of his thoughts by yet another low dry chuckle from Stark, "I'll try, kitten."
She bristled at the nickname yet said nothing, opting to watch him try and maneuver the damn nuke in his grasp. With baited breath, she watched him maneuver it towards the large hole that had been ripped in the sky. She watched until he became a mere speck in the distance, a large explosion rocked the portal and began to seep into their world with dread seeping into her body she shoved the staff into the damn cube.
She winced as she and Thor were thrown back from the large whiplash of power, his larger body cushioning her fall. Her vision was white for a mere minute before it slowly came back. Her eyes moved to the sky looking for any hint of Tony, and with fear in her blood, she watched his limp armor-covered body fall towards the ground.
Thor frowned as their comrade fell to his death and with a shift, he placed Kagome on the ground and grabbed his hammer fully intent on saving him. He was on a crash course with his precious Stark Tower. With a few swings of his hammer, he was in the air catching the man's limp body and landed with a solid thud back on the roof. He placed Stark's body on the ground gently, not wanting to cause any more harm to the human.
Kagome bit her lip as made her way to him, noting the others had made their way to the roof as well. With a heavy sigh, she collapsed next to him and placed her hands on his chest, wincing as the armor burned her flesh, still hot from its descent from space.
"Come on." It was mumbled, yet they all heard it, holding their breath as she shoved her power into his chest. She could feel the Hulk tower over her, watching as she tried to make the man wake up. Hawkeye and Natasha were nearby, watching her, yet had their weapons poised at Loki should he chose to wake up. Thor and the Captain stood on the other side of Tony, looking down with worried eyes.
Sweat drenched her brow, her powers at their limit, she was not an endless supply of power, even she had her limits. The strain of her muscles protested the way she pushed more healing power into him, willing him to wake up.
Hulk furrowed his brow, noticing the small human child was pushing light into the 'metal man' both were dinged up and he worried. He crouched down behind them and nudged the metal man with a finger, poking him, urging him to get up. When he did not, he got slightly angry and with a loud yell, he watched at the metal man snapped up, his head colliding with the woman-child's.
"What?!" Tony winced as he held a hand to his throbbing head, looking around in confusion at the loud grunt-like yell. He looked around at his comrades, they were all beat up to some degree and gave a cheeky grin, "Now, that's how you throw a party."
She glared at him a hand resting on the now forming bump on her forehead, "Jerk." He merely grinned at her before blinking his eyes bashfully.
"I hope you didn't kiss me, I'd hate to have to break your heart, kitten." She rolled her eyes and slumped to the ground completely drained.
"The only one to have touched my lips today was Loki and he paid for it." She chucked at the huffs and grumbles that followed her statement and let herself be pulled into the Hulk's arms like a small child.
Damn, she was tired.
