The Younger Agent - Natasha Romanoff x OC

Chapter 30 - My Arms Hurt

They continued shooting at the never-ending army, Eleanor still thought that they were pretty useless against the army compared to a literal God but she would continue to try her best to help clear some of them. 

After getting rid of a good chunk of the Chitauri in front of her, Eleanor lowered one of her guns and started looking around the area after she heard muffled screams. Scanning the area she saw people trapped in a bus nearby, "Shit, there's people trapped in that bus!", she yelled whilst running over to it, having to duck a few times as alien blasts were sent her way. 

Clint looked over at Nat and they nodded at each other, Nat would cover the other two whilst they rescued the trapped people.

Civilians were being passed through the window as the door was broken, when Eleanor grabbed one and turned to place them down, Clint grabbed one. It was like a conveyor belt, they were efficient and quick, but it still wasn't going to be quick enough as Nat was now being overwhelmed with the number of Chitauri building up again. 

Clint grabbed the door of the bus and yanked it open, leaving Eleanor wondering why he couldn't have just done that from the start. She pushed these thoughts aside after he had reached Nat again, whereas Eleanor stayed to direct the civilians to the safest exit route, not that any of them were safe really. 

Once everyone was on their way to safety, she ran back to the other too and started shooting alongside Nat again before hearing "Just like Budapest all over again!".

Eleanor and Clint went slightly wide-eyed at Nat casually bringing up this traumatic event but quickly shrugged it off when more aliens ran at them to take their lives.

"You and I remember Budapest very differently".

The group were getting overrun with aliens, with them now at arm's length instead of a steady few feet back. Clint used his bow to sweep the legs of one of them before stabbing them with an arrow, and Nat had somehow gotten on the shoulders of another, using her gloves loaded with electricity to shock it.

Eleanor ran at a taxi and jumped off of the side of it, using one of her legs to boost her jump and directed her other leg to kick one of the Chitauri in the face, landing on her feet next to it before using her gun to finish it off. 

She turned when she heard Clint grunt in pain at being tackled to the floor, but he was quickly able to fight off so she went back to trying to save her own ass as more of them turned their attention to her.

One, in particular, started charging towards her, so she ran towards it as well, before dropping and skidding on the floor at the last second, grabbing its ankle and throwing it to the floor. It got up quickly though and jumped on her, sending the gun in her hand flying away from her. She desperately tried to reach it but her fingertips were just grazing it. There was an attempt to grab another gun from her holsters that were still on one side of her body, but the arm on that side was being painfully pinned down. 

The Chitauri on top of her then lifted its staff ready to finish her off so in a mad scramble she pulled out one of the small knives from her belt and sunk it into the Chitauri's abdomen, thanking all of the Gods that she had managed to find a gap in the armour, and put as much pressure on it she could before it fell limp in her hold. It fell on top of her making her want to gag. She threw it off of her sideways and quickly jumped up to get back into the fight. 

She was impressed when she looked over and saw Nat expertly fighting off the Chitauri with one of their own weapons, blasting them away. "Anywhere I can get one of those?!", Eleanor shouted over to her whilst shooting a couple of the aliens with her guns after Nat had killed a wave of them. This just earned a smirk before Nat had to turn around and blast a few more. Eleanor didn't think that her answer was very helpful.
