Archangel (Avengers Fanfiction)

Chapter 5

"I don't like it." Steve mumbled, meaning for only Tony to hear. But to my enhanced hearing after my... incident, it just made me better.

"What? Rock of Ages giving up so easily?" Stark asked.

"I don't remember it being ever that easy. This guy packs a wallop." Steve states.

"Still, you are pretty spry, for an older fellow. What's your thing, Pilates?" I turned my head over to look at Tony with a confused expression.

"What?" Steve asked, dumbfounded.

"It's like calisthenics. You might have missed a couple things, you know, doing time as a Capsicle." Tony replied casually.

Steve looked at Tony, having his face reading the annoyed expression.

I was laying on the side of the Quinjet, having everyone in my view. Tony and Steve standing near the pilot seat, Natasha controlling the plane, and Loki sitting on the seat opposite side of me, eyeing me warily.

His eyes were having this mischievous look, giving me the chills done my spine. I never liked these faces. They just gave me the creeps. A small smirk played on his lips as I stared blankly at him, trying to keep my face from the annoyed look.

An argument brought me back to the space around me.

"Fury didn't tell me you were coming." The Captain stated.

"Yeah, there's a lot of things Fury doesn't tell you." Stark said with an annoyed tone in his voice.

Just as Steve was about to reply, the sky was beginning to rumble with lightening.

"Where's this coming from?" Natasha asked as she looked around.

"What? Scared of a little lightening?" Steve asked as he eyed the God of Mischief.

"I am not overly fond of what follows..." Loki replied.

Just after that response, a thud made me jump up to my feet and going with my instincts. My sensitive ears picked up feet pressing on the roof. Who would the hell be up there? It's impossible for someone to breath at this height of air pressure.

A few seconds later, the back of the Quinjet opened. The bunker began to slide down, welcoming a broad, tall, and blonde man infront of us and immediately grabbing Loki, strapping him off of his belts and flew out with a hammer?..

I jumped up to my feet and looked back at Tony. He was walked to the edge and then Steve called out. "Stark where you going?"

"Do you think he's a friendly?" Natasha called out.

"It doesn't matter. If we lose them, the Tesseract is lose." Tony looked at me and nodded. "Find Loki then try to keep him secure." I nodded, acknowledging.

"Stark, we need a plan and an attack!" Captain called out.

"I have a plan, attack." He stated and jumped out.

Tony flew out with his suit as I dived out of the Quinjet. Spreading my leathered wings, I flew steadily in the air and slowly down slightly to keep an eye out for anything.

I couldn't know about Tony since I left my earpiece up in the Quinjet. I sighed and continued to fly.

A sudden light caught my attention to my right. I looked down to see a figure standing on a cliff as a light rocketed around. my blue eyes then caught the red and gold colors flashing with the moons light. Tony.

Following his order, I folded my wings and landed with a thud on the ground. That caught the attention of the God. He looked back with a smirk on his face.

"Ah. You've come." Loki spoke up. I growled at him.

"Where is the Tesseract?" I questioned, ignoring his earlier words.

"I have sent it off where I do not know where."

"What do you want from it and us?" I asked as I narrowed my cat-like eyes.

"It's simple. You see, I want to rule this realm."

I snorted in response. "Keep talking." I smirked.

A second later, something whizzed by us. I ran over to see Tony and the other guy fighting. I wanted to help them but I had to keep the God next to me from fleeing.

I felt a cold object touch my neck. Realising who it was, I growled and swatted his hand away with my tail. I pointed the tip of my tail at his neck and warned him, "Don't you dare." He only let out a chuckle.

I kept my tail as it is and looked around to see the Captain now jumping down from a log. A booming voice sounded from below which I can hear easily.

"You want me to put the hammer down?!" He shouted as he ran up to Steve and then jumped up in the air. Captain crouched on the ground and covered himself with his vibranium shield. What felt like a sonic boom erupted the sky and all the trees around them were bent. Only a small wind came by me and the god beside met.

"Who is he?" I asked Loki, curious to know who he was.

"Him? Thor. The idiotic God of Thunder." He said as his voice showed clear of detest. I wanted to chuckle at that but I couldn't let it out. Not now of else he'll start up a conversation so keep me off track. So I kept my face straight.

I then noticed the men coming our way. Tony flew up to us and nodded at me.

"Good job, kid."

I nodded back and stepped back waiting for the Quinjet to take the God to hostage.
