Chapter Thirteen: Have You Ever Killed An Alien?

"Behold," I whisper," The aliens from outer space."

I press on my earpiece," Stark, were heading north east."

"What, did you guys stop for drive-thru," a voice crackles thru earpiece,"Swing up park, I'm gonna lay 'em out for you."

I look back at Stark tower. I gasp when I see Thor and Loki battling each other. When did he get here?

"See them." Barton says.

Hawkeye banks the jet towards Stark Tower, opening fire on Loki, who has thrown Thor away. Loki aims the scepter at the quinjet and fires his scepter, and the jet catches fire as Thor gets to his feet, tackling his brother down hard. Hawkeye maneuvers one wing of the jet. We spin, dropping slowly out of the air.

I thrown around like a doll, trying to hang on to something. I knock into Rogers as we collide as gravity decides to slap us. I finally grab a ramp, steading me as we fly around.

I let one hand go, grabbing Rogers hand so he won't get beat up before the battle starts. But man, a super solider is heavy.

"Get ready for impact!" Cap yells. We keep dropping, then slam into the street. My fingers are forced to let go as we fall and I bang my bad shoulder on Rogers's helmet. I groan at the pain, rolling on the floor.

"Everyone okay?" I ask, getting up and opening the ramp. Mumbled yes chorus around as we run out. Clint loads his bow as me and Natasha check are magazines.

"Ready Black Widow?" Clint asks.

"You bet, Hawkeye." She answers.

He flicks his eyes up at me," Miss Firman?"

"Good to have you back." I say.

"Glad to be back," Clint answers, smiling at me. The four of us walk into the street. We look up into the sky. A huge snake-like thing comes out of the wormhole.

Its huge, so big. We keep looking up, out of our element. From both sides, Chitauri soldiers cling off the monster. They jump off, and attach themselves to the sides of the buildings, sliding down. Some crash into these buildings and begin firing from their energy rifles at innocent people. I can already see my bullets in their brains.

"Stark," Cap says into his earpiece, still looking at the huge monster,"are you seeing this?"

"I'm seeing," Stark's voice crackles through my earpiece,"still working on believing. Where's Banner? Has he shown up yet?"

"Banner?" I hear Rogers question.

"Just keep me posted. Jarvis, find me a soft spot."

The four of us run behind upside taxis. We look up and see Loki taking his band down the street and firing at the street in a chain of explosions, causing cars to explode and hurl people.

"Since when did he get a flying chariot?" I ask as Barton shakes his head.

Terrified people run from Loki, looking over their shoulders, coming straight at us. Cap looks down the bridge.

"Those people need assistance down there."

Chitauri soldiers that have landed near close by and begin firing at us.

"Ever killed a alien?" I ask Natasha.

She pulls out a pistol and shoots, hitting one. It falls, lifeless.

"Yep. Easy."

I pull out both my pistols and begin to fire. Natasha and I take out the squad. I turn to Cap.

"We got this. It's good. Go!" I shout.

He quickly looks at Baton,"You think you can hold them off?"

"Captain," he pulls a trigger on his bow; an arrow is mechanically chosen,"It would be my genuine pleasure."

Baton shoots an arrow into the creature's head, gaining a few seconds for Cap as he falls down the bridge, followed by an explosion. I go back to killing aliens, back to back with Natasha. I spot a turned over bus, pounding coming from inside.

"Barton!" I yell, pointing to the bus" Theirs people in there. We'll cover you."

He runs over a bus full of people. He makes it to the jammed door and jerkily opens it as I stand a few feet away, warding off Chitauri. People begin to run out as the three of us take cover behind a car. I quickly reload my magazine and go on shooting.

"Just like Budapest all over again!" Natasha says.

Me and Barton don't look at her and keep shooting.

"You remember Budapest very differently from us!" We yell together.

It's good to have the band back together.

The people get to a safe spot as we get out into the open again, stepping over dead aliens. Barton attacks a Chitauri solider and rams an arrow down its throat. I keep shooting as more aliens come.

One decides to try to come at me head on. I raise my pistol, pulling the trigger.

No ammo.

I throw it away, then make a fist. It blocks. I headbutt it(bad idea) and stager back. It pushes me against the wall, taking out a knife.

I kick at him, which pushes him a few feet back, giving me enough space. I jump up and and put my palms against the brick wall. The Chitauri comes back as my legs come up fast, my feet hitting it's chest. I land on it, then jump, crushing it's ribs. I take out my spare pistol and shoot it in the hand. Another comes as I simply shoot again.

I get back in the fight, taking out another soldier, then look quickly at Nat. We grab the energy rifles from our opponents and start shooting the Chitauri to high heaven.

After a few minutes, Captain America joins back in our little corner of the war and using his shield, swats and whacks oncoming soliders. But it's not enough. They start overwhelm us.

"Natasha, Plan B?" I ask.

"Um...."

Suddenly, lightning strikes down from the sky, channeling the blast, firing the electricity out at the Chitauri soldiers around them. They're blasted back in a massive shockwave. The aliens convulse, drop dead to the ground.

"That's Plan B." She answers.

Thor touches down next to us.

"Nice of you to join us." I say to him. He grunts.

"What's the story upstairs?" Cap asks.

"The powers surrounding the cube is impenetrable." He answers.

"Thor is right. We gotta deal with these guys." I hear Starks voice over the intercom.

"How do we do this?" Natasha asks.

"As a team." Cap finishes.

"I have unfinished business with Loki." Thor interjects, his hands in fists

"Yeah," Barton says, fingering his arrows,"get in line."

"Save it," Rogers snaps,"Loki's gonna keep this fight focused on us and that's what we need. Without him these things could run wild. We got Stark up top, he's gonna need us..."

We are interrupted by the sound of engines. I almost laugh when I see who it is. Banner arrives on a small motorbike. Getting off, he looks around the city, then at us.

"So, this all seems horrible." He comments.

"I've seen worse." Natasha comments, probably referring to when he went Hulk on the helicarrier.

He gives a sheepish smile,"Sorry."

"No. We could use a little worse."

Cap presses his earpiece,"Stark? We got him."

"Banner?" I hear.

"Just like you said."

"Then tell him to suit up. I'm bringing the party to you."

Iron Man comes out from behind a building. The Chitauri snake thing follows, impatiently almost. It's huge.

"I don't see how that's a party..." Natasha says, looking at the thing.

Iron Man swoops down the street. The Chitauri monster also goes down, barreling down the street like a freight train that keeps building and building its intensity. I load my gun, not that it would do any good, but the action seems to comfort me.

Banner looks behind. Cap looks at him. The doctor begins to walk towards the monster.

"Dr. Banner," The Captain addresses," Now might be a really good time for you to get angry."

Banner smiles,"That's my secret, Captain. I'm always angry."

Banner's body starts to swell and stretch and harden. Green shoots through his body, he grows into something. The Hulk.

Hulk pops the Chitauri monster in the nose. The creature starts to flip over. I would have clapped, but the monster was going to fall on me.

Iron Man, in mid-flight, extends his arm out and a mini rockets show themselves, ready to shoot. He fires, the rockets, hitting a soft spot. The monster explodes. Shrapnel starts to fly everywhere. Cap raises his shield, guarding me and him from the falling fragments.

We end up in a protective circle as we watch the rest of the army come through the wormhole. Iron Man touches down, the Hulk yells, Cap bares his shield, Thor readies his hammer. Hawkeye plucks out an arrow, and Black Widow reloads her gun. I take out my knives.

"Welcome to the Avengers." Natasha whispers.

"Glad I could come."

So Sienna is an unofficial-but-official-all-the-same Avenger!

I was so happy writing that.
Love you all! Happy reading!
