Part 15

"Well, Stark?" Dreykov asked as the gun was pressed to your head. "Would you do that? Leave your power aside and kneel, and beg for your girlfriend?"

You carefully watched Tony as he contemplated it in his head. Finally, he lowered the hand with his gun and your eyes widened. He got down to his knees while Dreykov watched with a smirk.

"Now beg." He said and Tony looked up at you.

Suddenly, a gunshot rang out through the air.

Tony's eyes widened as he waited for what followed after it.

He didn't feel any pain.

Then, he looked over at you.

Dreykov fell behind you, pool of blood coming out of his leg. You turned towards the source, only to see James standing there, his gun raised.

You quickly realized it was him who shot Dreykov, and you didn't have much time. You pushed Dreykov away, kicking the gun away from his hand when he tried to use it and punched him in the face. He let out a groan and you took the gun in your hand without thinking and shot him.

"Y/N..." You could hear someone calling you in the distance, but the ringing sound in your ears was too loud.

You felt Tony's hands touching you and it was only then you realized what was happening. Dreykov laid on the floor, blood spreading from where you shot him in the chest.

"Is he dead?" You asked, making a step back.

James stepped into the room, and kneeled down to check on his pulse. Then, he looked at you. "He's dead, doll."

"I killed him." The gun dropped from your hands and you stared at his dead body. His eyes were still open.

"Come on, we gotta go." James said and Tony pulled on your arm to get you out of the room. "Melina took down one of the engines. The sky fortress is about to collapse." He added, and it was only then you became aware of what was happening.

You made it out of the room and were going down the hallway.

"What about the widows?" You asked.

"All saved. Also, I'm sorry I doubted you." James replied and you shot him a small smile.

Steve was waiting for you at the end of the hallway and led you down to the exit. "We need to go. Now."

As soon as you made it outside and towards one of the helicopters, you saw Natasha, Yelena, Melina and Alexei. Melina was the first to pull you into the hug. "I thought something happened."

"Well, I never doubted my girls."Alexei added.

"Let's get going now."

You all got into one of the helicopters and James sat in the pilot seat.

Tears appeared in your eyes and you looked towards Tony, who pulled you into a hug where you allowed yourself to cry.

You only looked up to see the sky fortress collapsing quickly, along with Dreykov and everybody who worked for him.

"You did it." Tony whispered to you.

"It's over." You whispered back. "It's really over."

"You have your freedom back." Tony moved a strand of your hair and pulled you in a hug.

As soon as you landed, you all made your way out of the helicopter and gathered in front of it.

"So, what is next for you?" Natasha asked you, and you shrugged.

"We'll go back home. Try to lead a normal life."You answered while Tony wrapped his hand around you.

"Take care of yourself, alright?"Melina took your hand and smiled at you.

"Don't worry about me." You told her with a smile.

"I know." She nodded at you as you and Tony made your way to one of the cars waiting for you.

He sat in the driver seat and looked at you in the passenger seat, shooting you a smile before driving away.

The End.
