Trusting You - A Captain America Love Story

MEL

     I jump from the quinjet into the snow-covered field near the old HYDRA building, landing on one knee and a fist.

     I get up and run, blasting my powers at agents attempting to protect their base. Poor them.

     I see a red, white, and blue shield flying to my right hitting a few agents on my path before it's retrieved once again by its owner.

     "We have an enhanced on the field" Steve Rogers says into the comm. I smirk to myself.

     "About time" I hear Tony Stark murmur "Don't engage, she isn't enemy. Let's gather". I look up listening to his propulsion as he flies to where we are meeting.

We all arrive far away from the commotion, I'm the last one there.

     From the corner of my eye, I see a HYDRA agent aiming to shoot at Steve.

     "Get down Captain!" I yell.

     He docks covering with his shield as my fingers form dark purple rays of energy followed by a blast that sends the guy backward before he has the chance to shoot.

     The Avengers: Natasha, Clint, Steve, Thor, and Tony look towards me, I don't spot Banner or "the other guy". Tony has his helmet on covering his face, while the others look at me questionably.

     I turn towards Stark "Hello brother" I say clearly.

     "Took you long enough - bring it in" He opens up his suit and steps out wrapping his arms around me while I smile and hug him back.

     "I had some business to take care of before getting here" I say explaining to my brother why I didn't start the mission with him.

     "Is this a prank?" I hear Clint murmuring towards the God of Thunder on his left.

     "Brother? Tony Stark having a sibling?" Natasha raises an eyebrow questioning.

     "Avengers, I think now it's time that you meet my little sister, Amelia" Tony announces patting my shoulder.

"Mel" I correct him. I don't go by my full name.

     Contrary to popular belief, Tony Stark isn't an only child, and I can prove it to you by my mere existence. I, Amelia Stark, have the honor to call him my older brother, but I don't really admit it out loud.

     "In the middle of a mission, Stark?" Steve questions keeping an eye on the surroundings never letting his guard down. I'm kinda doing the same, just in case we aren't alone.

     I turn to the Avengers "What's the update?"

     Steve steps forward "The orb with the power stone has been traced to this HYDRA base, possibly for their weapons. We don't know how they got a hold of it, might be from outside forces" He stands in front of me and Tony.

     "When he says outside forces he actually means out of earth" Tony mumbles next to me a little too excited for my liking.

     My eyes widen "So, in there," I point towards the lonely building in the distance "is an actual infinity stone that can destroy this planet if it's left in the wrong hands?"

     Steve nods and I start walking towards the building "Alright, the plan, Captain?" I ask and the others follow us.

     "You have your own knowledge of the Infinity Stones don't you, Miss Mel?" Thor asks matching my pace and Steve's.

     "I know about some more than others, not really by choice though"

     "Alright, Nat, Clint, Thor take care of the agents on the outside of the building, when you're done help Mel and I on the inside. Tony find the stone. If it's outside the orb you cannot grab it and go. Let us know" Steve commands and we all go our separate ways, Steve and I sprinting to the building.
