Author's POV

Current and Parker ran further and further into the tunnel, even past where they had seen the Orb with the lights from his suit illuminating the way. They had already began breathing heavily when Parker stopped and turned.

"If they're here, what do we do now? Keep running until we get lost? "He asked.

"If they're here for this then I gotta make sure they don't get it. We have to sneak this someplace else. Maybe when Steve and the others arrive, they'll keep them distracted enough for us to. . ."

She was interrupted by a really loud thud, tiny bits of rock fell ontop of them. The thud was right above them. Then a familiar roar tore through the cave.

"Uh oh!! Run!! "She yelled as she realized who it was, they both ran as fast as they could with Elles resisting the urge to use her sonic speed and leave Peter behind. The heavy sound of footsteps running in the same direction above them made the grounds unsteady.

Soon, an avalanche of rocks came crashing down in front of them. They both fell backwards at the impact. A huge wave of dust covered the place causing them to cough. The blurry green skin of the Hulk filled their vision as he roared endlessly.

"Look! His eyes! He's been compromised again! I don't think he'll know who we are! "Current said as she and Peter backed up looking at Hulk's jet black eyes.

The Hulk attacked with both hands, smashing everything in his way as the duo struggled and tumbled to stay away from him. The Orb rolled out of Ellesmere's grip just as Peter rushed to push her away from Hulk who had jumped really high aiming to smash her to pieces. By this time, the cave had obtained a wide opening from above. They could see the fight going on outside.

Widow and Clint fought off thousands of aliens and soldiers as they could, holding them off until the others arrived.

The Orb had rolled off and was behind Hulk who was stopping them from reaching it. Elles suddenly remembered her Frisbees, she took out six of them then skillfully threw them at the Hulk. Each one landed on different parts of his body shocking him but not to unconsciousness, he was way too big. It only distracted him for a while as he tried pulling them off.

Elles crawled behind him with Peter following, as soon as she picked up the Orb, they both catapulted out of the cave. But it wasn't such a nice view outside because the fight was just as hot on the surface.

Soon, floods of helicopters arrived the place surrounding the area like a bunch of flies. Smaller drones were released from them as they shot at the aliens killing them.

A familiar whirring sound came through the air. The Iron Legion had arrived as well and the War Machine too. The fight was packed.

From one end to another, the Avengers battled the aliens in the wake of the morning.

"Elles, you get the Orb to safety!" Widow yelled at her from where she had both her legs wrapped tightly around a soldier's neck suffocating him.

Spiderman joined in the fight, throwing webs and detonators at the enemy. He threw one of those tiny bombs at four aliens, a large ray of purple light forming a kind of ball covered them, then it blasted into tiny bits gluing the aliens to a nearby boulder.

"That is so amazing. Hey, did anyone see that? "He asked jumping up in excitement as he pointed at the aliens struggling to free themselves. Just then, an alien pounced on him sending both of them tumbling down a slope.

"That's what you get from talking too much in a fight! "Steve commented as he knocked out a few aliens out with his cement like fists and Vibranium shield.

Elles used her sonic speed and ran deeper into the mountains clutching the Orb tightly. She was thousands of miles away from the fight but she could still hear the sounds of bullets being shot and the Hulk's giant roar.

Where she had stopped looked like a small forest with tall trees that had dull looking branches hanging from them. A giant rocky plateau stood majestically at the end of the forest, one could tell it was old from the look of the decaying plant life around it.

The place seemed serene as the cool morning breeze caressed her face leaving a cold tickle in its wake. Elles wondered if she could climb up to the terrain when another very loud thud made her turn sharply.

"Oh No!! "She whispered in a sad tone.

Tigrahn stood some distance away from her with his sceptre in hand. Four aliens stood next to him. Two of them held the largest chains she had ever seen, they were securely hooked around the neck, hands and feet of a man. His eyes were glazed over black,he was shirtless and was bleeding from his forehead, arms, chest, neck and hands.

The other two aliens held the arms of a woman, one of them had his hand clasped over her mouth as tiny sobs escaped from her. Her brown straight hair was messy and her black dress was ripped at the right side of her leg, she also bled from her right knee and chin. Her eyes were sorely swollen and her feet was bare.

Elles could feel the largest knot tying itself into a ball in her throat. She just stood there, staring at her parents without moving a muscle but on the inside she was racking her brain on what to do.

"I knew you'd run away from the fight, like you always do. Now, hand over the Orb or watch your parents kill themselves."Tigrahn said with his tongue slithering in and out of his mouth like a snake.

"How do you know that? "She asked tilting her head and struggling to pull herself together and not pounce on him and cut off his tongue.

"Well, the lady told me. I was quite surprised I must tell you, who knew the bastard Prince had a bastard child. " He said and at that moment, looked more human as he played with his fingers in mock ignorance.

"You're the bastard here. Now, you let them go. Or you'll get yours first! "She shot in a cold tone almost exactly like Widow's.

"You think you're so smart, lying to the people around you to look innocent. You have the blood of a killer. Why do you think you enjoy killing so much? Wait a minute, I think I know why, because it's in your bloodline, in the blood of all the Odinson in goddamn Asgard. How would your friends react when they find out you've lied to them all this time? Will they ever trust you again after you've worked so hard to gain that trust?"

His words burned deep into her but she knew what he was playing at, something like a psychoanalysis but much worse. He was going to use her guilt and most pressing emotions against her and that was the last thing Elles wanted to happen.

"Give me the Orb and i'll set your parents free. Your friends are all going to die anyway, this isn't all of my army. There's more. You might get saved when I'm about to destroy the world, join me and we can wipe out the race of humans. "

Elles decided to put on the "frustrate your opponent " strategy. Something she had learnt a long time ago from a Chinese Kung Fu channel.

She suddenly brightened up her face like a little girl getting a Barbie doll as a Christmas present "Are you serious? I get a front row seat at the End of the World? That's not so bad. So how much do you pay for two seats or even three? And popcorn?, I hate it when it's got too much butter and I hope you've got merchandise, cool ones. Not like the ones I got when I went to see The Minions for the first time, they were absolutely boring. I mean, who likes boring stuff? Not me! "

She could see Tigrahn knot his brows in confusion. It was working.

"What are you talking about? You think this is some comedy show? "He said in a thunder like voice trying to intimidate her.

Her eyes shot to Thor, he looked as if he was going to destroy anything within his reach once they let go of the chains. Then she gazed briefly at Jane, her eyes were full of regret and sadness. Elles could tell how people felt even without reading their minds, she was learning slowly from Widow who was naturally blessed with Empathetic skills.

"Fine. You can have the Orb but. . .

"But what? "He asked taking a step forward, the only move he had made so far.

"You let my mom go and then bring Thor back to normal and call off your army." She said stretching her left hand out behind her.

"Do you expect me to do all you've asked?"He asked chuckling, "I'm not that stupid. "

A metallic object shone through the trees behind her as it flew. In a second, it found its way into her open hand and she grabbed it tightly.

"I think you are! "She said, pulsing with so much electricity. The sky turned black as night as her entire body and the sky crackled with thunder and lightening, Mjolnir channelled its powers to herself. She gave it a powerful throw. It knocked the chains right off Thor's hands and feet and neck then aimed straight for Tigrahn, sending him flying back as he crashed into a large rock like a wrecking ball. She sent charges to her fists, punching the confused aliens square in the face, shocking them to death.

Jane fell to her knees as the aliens let go of her. Mjolnir made its way back to Elles but before she was able to throw it again, she felt it pull out of her hands and straight into Thor's knocking the Orb out of her hand in the process.

"Finish them! "Tigrahn ordered with his mouth already covered in blood . Thor swiftly knocked Jane into a nearby tree. Elles charged her arms and legs and Thor did the same with Mjolnir.

With each blow they sent towards each other, a wave of electricity blasted everything in sight. He sent a wave of lightening towards her but she caught it. Rotating it around in her hands like a ball, she sent it back to him. He dodged and it crashed into a tree causing the tree to fall down. She broke into a run and then fell to her knees sliding down to punch Thor in the knee. It weakened him making him fall to the ground. He had one knee raised with his hands placed on the ground firmly, he looked at her growling fiercely, his eyes gleaming black. If black gleamed at all!!

"Snap out of it Thor!! Anyways, don't worry, I'll get you outta that prison!! "She commented running to step on his raised knee, she twirled and kicked him in the face then landed in a crouch. He stood up and wiped the blood off his mouth. She threw a punch again but he caught her fist and twisted it slowly making her grunt in pain, she struggled to straighten her hand but his grip was too tight. He folded his fist into a ball and punched her in the face too. The impact of the punch cut her lip. She fell to the ground on her back. He tried to pounce on her but she pushed herself up with her hands and turned around quickly giving him a back-kick. He jerked unsteadily. She took her chance and sent a charge to her arms again. Before she could throw another blow, he caught both of her arms twisting them backwards. Her bones creaked loudly as they formed a rigid and painful friction beneath her spine. She charged her hair and gave him a powerful nod but actually felt the headache instead. He threw her into a tree and she crashed into it with her back.

"Ow!!. Jane, get to the cave. You'll get help there! "Elles yelled at Jane who was struggling to stand up. She stood up, drew out her pen and clicked it, it grew into a spear with thunder licking every corner of it.

She cut Thor in the arm, he didn't even wince. He threw Mjolnir at her, she did a skilled bend to avoid it then caught it at the last minute. She threw it back at him, he dodged and caught it by the handle. She twirled her spear, striking at his hip. He aimed a punch at her face but she was quick enough to duck, grabbing his arm, she turned and elbowed him in the rib. He jerked back and before he could regain his composure, she kicked Mjolnir out of his hand. She ran towards him, taking a leap, she caught him by the neck with both legs and then leaned backwards letting him fall in reckless abandon. It was a move she'd never really practiced but had seen Natasha do it countless times. He stood up again brushing the dust off himself. He pulled a large log of wood off a tree like it was a stapler pin and threw it all her. She sent a charge to her feet then jumped avoiding the wood. She hurriedly picked up the log, it was a lot heavier than it looked but Thor had made it look easy when he'd lifted it. She aimed at him and threw it, he dodged and ran towards her. Without caution, he lifted her above his head and threw her into a large rock. She laid down for a while as the impact made her dizzy. But through her blurry vision, she could see him walking over to Jane. He picked Jane up by the neck and slammed her into the ground. He repeated the same thing thrice and then recklessly threw her. She landed hard on the ground wincing loudly in pain. Before she could get up, he had pulled her up again, she was choking and hitting his arm but he didn't budge, blood dripping down her forehead and arms.

"Let her go!! "Elles said. She had no idea if she had whispered it or screamed but was probably a little in between. She pushed herself up but her hands were wobbly, she shook her head twice to clear her vision but everything seemed to be turning anticlockwise. She shut her eyes a bit but Jane's screams filled her ears. She opened her eyes and saw that Thor had stabbed her in the back with a piece of wood.

"NO! "Elles screamed and was sure she had screamed this time, then her eyes turned white and so did her blonde hair. It almost looked transparent in the darkness. A violent wind blew then she stood up, held both her arms and twirled into a massive hurricane. The wind lifted everything around both human and objects alike.

Just then, the Avengers arrived the scene. They all watched in awe as she rotated wildly in the middle of the hurricane then plummeted on top of Thor. The hurricane whipped him around mercilessly even as he struggled to get out. Elles jumped out of the hurricane and landed in a tumble.

In the next minute, the hurricane died down leaving an unconscious Thor lying down almost lifeless on the ground.

Steve, Nat and Clint ran towards Thor to check his pulse.
"He's breathing! We have to get him back to the Tower right now! "Nat said as Steve and Clint struggled to pull Thor up.

Peter, Rhodes, Wanda, Vision, Tony and some other surviving S.H.I.E.L.D soldiers stood by watching the whole scene. Each one sweaty and bloody from the fight and breathing heavily.

"Well? Some help here? "Clint asked staring at the onlookers. Vision, Tony, Rhodes and Peter went to help and together they were able to lift him. In an unconscious state, he almost weighed a ton.

"Ellesmere, where is he? "Jane whispered to Elles as she helped her to her feet wiping the blood off her face. It was then Elles turned to look at the spot where Mjolnir had knocked Tigrahn, but he was gone and so was the Orb leaving only Mjolnir lying down, glistening a silver white on the Sandy ground.

Nat and Wanda helped Elles move Jane to the Quinjet. The soldiers took their helicopters heading straight to report back to Nick Fury while the Avengers flew back to the Tower.

"Did he get it? "Steve asked walking towards Elles as she carefully took off her bulletproof jacket in the back of the Jet.

She grunted quietly as the jacket slipped off her hands. She had broken a lot of bones during the fight.

"Yeah. He got it!! "She said sitting down slowly on the floor as she stared at Jane who lay right next to Thor.

Steve walked away and Peter came next. He squatted next to her then looked briefly at the unconscious duo.

"At least, you've got them back! "He said calmly. She nodded absent mindedly.

She had managed to save her parents but how was she going to save the rest of the World?

Phew!! Thank Goodness all that is over. I was really excited putting together a father daughter fight but then as I began writing, it didn't seem like so much fun anymore.

Anyway, some people might say with all that slamming, Jane should've been dead, I mean, she IS human and should be more delicate but I just wanted it to be this way.

And yes, I let the bad guy get away with it but wait until he's the one fighting father and daughter. Oops!! Shouldn't have said that.

Okay, I really hope y'all are enjoying your read so far and I was absolutely shocked to discover that there are a lot of other books like mine here on Wattpad and so I really appreciate those who clicked on mine. I'm not saying those other books aren't interesting or great, I'm just saying that with all that action in some of them, my readers still chose to read mine.

Alright, enough blabbering now. Let's go to New York, Amigos!!

Have fun..

Lots of love ❤❤❤
