The Blue Blur 3 (Pietro Maximoff x Reader)

Chapter 16: The Past, or Now Present

I waited a couple minutes outside of the building, waiting for Tony's cue. "Got to hustle guys. Things look like they're just about to wrap up here," Tony says through the comms, and I start to make my way inside.

"Got it. I'm approaching the elevator now," Steve says.

"About to check in," I say, making my way to the front desk. I walked up with a smile on my face, trying to express the joy I'm definitely not feeling. I put my identification card on the desk, "Hi, Alyssa Jackson. It's my first day, really excited. Love how there's an alien invasion, make a good story one day, don't you think?"

She scans my card throughout my rambling, obviously annoyed with my false excitement, which was the point. "Yes, great story to tell the kids," she says, unenthusiastic. The card was accepted, and she handed it back to me. "Have fun on your first day."

"Thank you so much," I smile, and walk away towards the elevator, and it was a long walk.

"Uh, Mr. Rogers. I almost forgot that suit did nothing for your ass," Tony says.

"No one asked you to look, Tony," Steve says, sighing.

"Real mature boys," I say.

"I think you look great, Cap. As far as I'm concerned, that's America's ass," Scott says, obviously excited about this whole experience. I waited for someone to give me an update as I turned the corner.

"Alright, I got our scepter in the elevator just passing the 80th floor and 2012 us just entered the elevator," Tony updated us.

"On it, head to the lobby. Y/n you there?" Steve asks.

"Yup, should bump into them soon," I say, smiling at an agent who walked by. I lean against the wall, full eyes on the elevator. I see in the corner of my eye Tony in a shield uniform, and we nodded to each other.

I saw the Avengers exit the elevator, and it was my time to make a move. "Thumbelina, do you copy? I've got eyes on the prizee. It's a go time," Tony says. I made my way up to Thor and Tony from 2012.

"Hey, Avengers, it's amazing to meet you," I say smiling like an idiot, holding out my hand for them to shake. Past Tony takes it hesitantly, and I see Tony flick Scott onto past Tony.

"Uh, hi. I'm sorry, who are you?" Thor asks.

"Alyssa Jackson. Pierce told me to get the case from you guys to give it to him. It's been SHIELD's property for over 70 years," I say.

"I don't know. Can't I just give it to him?" Tony asks.

"He gave me direct orders to take the case to him. It's very important to him that it stays with SHIELD," I say, trying to get it without giving 2012 Tony a heart attack.

In my comms I hear Tony say, "Do it Lang!" and I knew what was about to go down. Past Tony drops the case, eyes widen.

"Uh, Mr. Stark? Are you alright?" I ask, pretending I don't know what's happening. Past Tony drops to the ground, and starts to hold his chest. Thor and I drop to our knees, making sure that he's okay.

"Stark, is this your chest machine?" Thor asks, very confused. In the corner of my eye, I see the case being moved across the room, and Tony grabs it, smiling.

"Good job, meet me in the alley. I'm gonna grab a quick slice," I hear Tony say through the comms.

"I think he's having a heart attack," I say, diagnosing him. Suddenly I hear a crash, and I see the Hulk going through a rampage. He pushes Tony, making him drop the case and it goes flying towards me. The case opens, revealing the tesseract, and it lands right in front of Loki.
