The Child of Darkness

Survived

Its been a week ever since they came back and Achlys is still in coma. Banner has been doing all techniques and methods he think will work but none of it works.

Steve already reported everything to Fury. Integra and Walter finds out about it but they're currently on mission in vatican. Though they wanted to be there, they cant.

"When was the last time she drink blood?" Integra talked to the whole team in virtual setting.

"We dont know" Tony answered

"Her body can regenerate but if her body is refusing to regenerate that means she's not been consuming blood... That might lead to her death or should I say an eternal sleep" Integra said.

Everyone was shock and Clint was also there to give Achlys the gratitude she deserve but seeing her at this state make him guilty.

"Listen this is important... Give her a bag of blood... It must be Human blood, you can buy from a hospital and after that I assure you she will wake up" Integra explained to them.

They all chip in their ideas and that made Integra happy, knowing that Achlys has a new circle of family taking care of her. Integra hang up and the Avengers immediately went to hospital to buy some.

Tony went to the lab to check up on Bruce and Achlys.

"Loki and Bucky?? I thought you're buying bag of blood?" Tony was surprised seeing the two standing and watching Banner and Achlys

"One bag is not that heavy to bring the whole team" Bucky answered

"I see whats going on here... Do you guys like my friend??" Tony teases the two

"NO!!" They both shouted in unison.
The two looked at each other and glared at Tony.

"Whatever, just to let you know she rejected me before and that might be your future" He said sounds so confident about himself.

He went inside leaving the two behind the quarantine glass. Tony talked to Banner about any progress he made yet but unfortunately there is none.

"She's a vampire, then why would she hunt down her kind?" Banner asked in curiosity but Tony just shake his head as a response.

"We better ask her when she wake up" Tony said caressing her hands resting on her side.

Soon enough Steve and the others came back with a bag of blood. They took it out of a chiller and gave it to Banner. Tony called Integra for instructions.

"Just let it drip on her mouth as if youre making her drink water...After that I want you to leave the room as soon as possible. She might crave for more so you better leave the room before she regret hurting you" Integra's words made the whole team look to each other.

As soon as she hung up, Banner quickly went to do the process. He tears the bag and slowly pour it to Achlys mouth. Bucky hold her head and forced the liquid to be swallowed. Soon her body reacted to the blood and the machine attached to her started to ring endlessly.

"We need to go out quickly" Steve said opening the door and leading the others outside.

They all stand behind the glass watching Achlys. Her veins started to glow as if a red light travels along those veins. Her body arched as her fingers begun to move and her claws shows. A dark aura appeared around her and her shadows starts to act crazy.

The room was filled with her screaming in pain. Her eyes changes. Her sclera became black and her eyes are red. The veins around her eyes became black as she holds her chest in pain.

"I thought...I thought that will save her??!! She looks in pain" Tony shouted in panic manner looking at his friend, watching her in pain.

Suddenly the door opens and Loki went inside.
