Twenty Two, And The World Stops (Part Two)

We slowly walk through the facility, noting everything around us. Noting that walls were smashed in, going deeper into rooms and halls of the building.

The dents slowly decreased as we came to a room that was pretty much empty, except for Bruce standing in the middle of it on a computer.

"Bruce!" Natasha yells excitedly, "I mean, Doctor Banner." she clears her throat and readdresses him.

"What's on the computer?" Steve asks

"All the secrets to this company. Including how to shut down the copy's technology." he says matter-of-factly.

"Great!" I cheer, "Can you?"

"It'll take a little while, but I believe I can. Give me maybe a half and hour?"

"De-" my phone suddenly starts to ring. "One moment."

I step out into the corridors where the walls are smashed in, and look at my phone.

Tony Stark

What does he want? I pick up regardless.

"Hello?"

"Summon the suit!"

"What? Why?"

"No time to explain, but if the copies get it they know our weaknesses."

I throw my hand to the side and summon my suit.

"Is Peter okay?"

"Peter is t-b-d. We can't really find him."

"If you do tell me, okay?"

"You'll be the first person I call."

And he hangs up. The suit comes flying at me, the arm flying onto mine, a boot securing to my leg. I'm soon surrounded by the suit. The inside turns on and FRIDAY's voice tells me my current stats.

"You are in a rising level of stress. You're health is at 94.3281737%. You've taken damage to your leg and shoulder."

"Yeah, bu-bye." I click the back head piece and it all folds into a phone sized box. "That's new."

I walk back to the room and slip the suit box into one of my pockets.

"What was that all about?" Natasha asks

"Well, Tony and the others aren't doing so hot with the whole Copy ordeal at the facility," I say, "I have my suit, but it's not meant for function other than to take me to places."

"Places?" Bruce asks

"Its programmed to take me anywhere I tell it. If I say home it takes me to the Avengers building. I say hospital it takes me to the nearest hospital then sends a message to Tony to tell him where I am."

"I'm guessing it's all controlled by FRIDAY?"

"Yeah." I say, "I can't stand her."

I walk further into the room and stand next to Steve.

"So far he's shut off half of the copies. We need to tell Tony somehow though. Call him."

I pull out my phone and dial his contact.

"You've reached the voicemail box of the one and only genius, Playboy philanthropist Tony Stark. If you don't know how phones work, then I seriously expect more from you. Beep!"

I silently face palm. Then hang up.

"Well. Okay then. No Tony, what else we got?" I ask.

"The suit."

"Not happening."

"Well we need to contact him somehow, and right now you seem like the only eligible person to do so." Natasha scoffs.

"Ugh... I can't wait for this to all be over with."

I take out the phone sized suit box and press a button so it turns into the helmet. I put that on and the thing forms around my body.

"You are in a rising level of stress. Your health is 94.3281737%. You have taken damage to your leg and shoulder." FRIDAY's voice announces, "Where would you like to go?"

"I want to go home. The Avengers Facility."

"The Avengers Facility has been compromised. Mr Stark has given me specific instructions to not let you return."

"Override his damn commands then! I need to get to him!" I say, starting to panic. "FRIDAY, override! Now!"

My voice is cracking as I realise it's gotten too bad over there for me to return. But now I need to.

"I am sorry, but Mr Stark has given me specific instructions to not let you return."

"That's why I'm asking you to override the system!" I yell

"I am sorry, but Mr Stark has given me specific instructions to not let you return."

"I know! Now override the fucking commands FRIDAY! Now!"

"I am sorry, b-"

"Override FRIDAY controls. Location of Avengers Facility." I say harshly. Commanding the damn robot computer thing to do what I fucking ask.

"Four miles north of here, and six miles to the west. Alternative route is seven miles to the Northwest. You'll arrive in about five minutes at top speed. But you will drain the battery of this suit."

"Fuck it. Let's do it." I say, I lift the faceplate and look at Steve. "No worries, see you before you know it. I'm gonna go knock some heads."

The faceplate lowers again and I salute him. He gives me a small smile in return and I walk away.

-

I land at the Avengers Facility and all the power in my suit drains immediately. It falls on the ground and off of my body. My suit was repaired and I felt ready. I get out my daggers and enter the building cautiously. I hear muffled voices and fighting in a few rooms down, so I run over there.

I look in the room to see Clint fighting a copy that doesn't have his cloak on.

It's working, I think.

I throw my dagger at the guy's head, and it goes through. I use my power to reverse it out and get in front of him.

"Hey, asshole. You wanna tell me stuff about the company before I destroy your stupid face?"

He tries to move away but the second he does he's snapped back into my field of reversed time. He's in normal time, but semi frozen. He has to stay in place. His body jerks around wildly before I just stab his head and remove the dagger normally.

"Useless shithead." I seethe. I look at Clint, who seems very surprised to see me.

"But Tony-"

"Shut off my link here? I know. I overrided stuff. You guys were failing miserably," I say. "Tony."

"What about him?"

"Where is he?"

"Main control room. But he isn't doing so hot." he says, "Neither is Peter to be hones-"

"Tony told me you guys couldn't find Peter?"

...........................................................
Le Flashback in Tony's POV
...........................................................

I stood across from Peter's struggling body as I was prepared to lie to her.

"Well, Peter is t-b-d. We can't really find him."

"As soon as you do, call me."

"You'll be the first I tell."

...........................................................
Back to Bea's present POV
...........................................................

I storm off down the corridors and into the control room just in time to see a former copy stab Tony through his suit.

The colour drains from my face as he falls. Everything gradually slows down until its stopped. Peter was on a table, next to lifeless. Tony was just stabbed before my eyes.

Nothing is worse.

I run over between them, deciding which I want to give attention to first. I wouldn't be able to tell if Peter was alive or not in stasis. I just had to trust he was since he was glancing over my way, his eyes glittering even in pain.

Tony however, was being stabbed. I take out my dagger and stab the man in his chest. I stab him over and over.

His body is practically covered in holes that will bleed at some point.

I make the world come back again and the man starts bleeding and falls. Tony catches himself before he falls completely, still able to stand. I now look at Peter, who, thanks to his little healing ability, was able to sit up. Gradually, but he's still here.

"What the hell were you thinking, Stark? Keeping me away from here deliberately? Lying to me about Peter? Then I come in here and you're getting stabbed?" I say angrily, "Also your AI is a piece of shit."

He looks at me rather surprised I even have this much emotion.

"I'm sorry. I'm glad you came here though." he says, giving me a weak smile.

"I would say I'm sorry, but I'm not. But I am glad you aren't dead yet, so..." I think a moment and out my hand on his shoulder. "Thanks for not dying."

"You're welcome."

"Also change your voicemail box it's really bad."

"Deal." he says, "Now how's Banner doing?"

"All the copies should lose any power they have in about ten minutes. Keep your building alive, Stark, I'll keep you alive."

I turn around and stand outside the door. Former copies start rushing at me, I simply throw my daggers their way, shoot them with my gun every so often.

Whatever I do, I cannot stop or reverse time. Even slowing it is better than stopping. But we ironically lose time when I do.

"Five minutes!" Tony shouts.

So close...

I keep fighting off a few more before I feel a searing pain in my leg. I turn around and stab the perpatrater. I look to my leg to see nothing there.

"He shocked me."

"Thirty seconds!" Tony shouts.

I kill the last few before they're electrocuted by the technology on their necks and under their clothing.

And that's it.

We're done.

I've never done a two-parter like this before, but I'm honestly so proud of myself. I don't know how the chapter title worked out since it was so long, but I'll check. It says it on the chapter cover anyway.

Can you believe this was over 1500 words? It's insane. Not the biggest chapter but by far one of the longest. I believe the longest was somewhere like chapter ten or fourteen or something. It had 2000 words.

But like I said, I'm going to do some Avengers Sitcom-esc stuff and some imagines with Spiderman and this whole story line. Kind of.

What I'll do is maybe a few imagines from aus or story prompts I find online, and I'll wrote them. I won't do a whole lot (probably around three max) and then I'll get back to doing the actual storyline.

In the imagines, however, I'm going to age up Peter to around 17 and Bea is going to be 17. I'd feel weird sexualizing a 15 and 16 year old and 17 isn't exactly an adult but they're not exactly a minor either.

It's part of the reason I aged up Peter by like, a few months.

Because I felt weird sexualizing two 15 year olds.

Lmao anyway, I'll see you guys next Chapter.

(The imagines won't have individual chapter covers or songs, I'm saving those for the actual book, that way you know when you're getting a chapter and when you're getting an imagine.)

-Love, Danielle
