Ignite Again (Avengers and One Direction Fanfiction)

Chapter Nine

Clint turned to the others.

"What in the everloving fuck was that?!?!"

"That was Howard Stark," Steve said, "And I'm pretty sure that was Maria Stark too. I don't know about any of the others, but I don't know any of the others."

"Those were people I've killed," Tony said, standing up.

"People you've killed?" Liam repeated.

"Yeah," Tony said, "Obediah, Yinsen, a soldier I met back in Afghanistan... I killed them." Steve shook his head.

"Yinsen and the soldier weren't your fault." Tony scoffed.

"And how would you know that?"

"It was in S.H.I.E.L.D.'s files," Steve said, "How they died. Yinsen sacrificed himself and the soldier was killed in an attack."

"By my weapons."

"That was sold to the enemy by Obediah," Steve countered, "And Obediah's death, well, you did kinda kill him but he was a villain. You had to do what you had to do."

Tony sighed, then looked at the arm Natasha was holding.

"That isn't one of yours is it?" Tony asked, "I don't have to re-attach an arm do I?" Natasha shook her head and tossed it to Tony.

"No, it's your father's." Tony held the arm at arms length away from him.

"Awesome," Tony sighed, sarcasm heavy. He took the arm into the lab and he closed and locked the door behind him.

"We should let Fury know what happened," Steve said. Natasha nodded.

"Clint and I'll go with you." she said.

"What do we do?" Louis asked.

"Go back to the gym and keep training," Clint said, "Looks like we're gonna have a battle on our hands soon." Steve winced.

"Don't say that," he said, started to walk out of the room, Clint and Natasha following him.

Tony'd put his father's hand in a tube of formaldehyde solution, taking samples as needed for tests. Tony thought that maybe he could figure out how the corpses came to life. But he really wasn't having much luck. All he found was that his father's skin was really decomposed.

He got frustrated after this last test, he threw the slide with the sample on it across the room, shattering it against the wall. He takes the microscope and throws it, hitting the formaldehyde tube, shattering the glass and spilling the solution. Tony walked over to the table where the arm now lay and picked it up, throwing it across the room. He stood where he was, breathing heavily, trying to get his frustration and anger under control, when he heard the turning of wheels and the beeping of one of his robots. He looked up to see Dum-E, rolling over to the arm, picking up in his appendages and came over to Tony, setting it down in front of his feet.

Tony sighed and walked away.

His robot was playing fetch with an arm. Great.

"Zayn Malik was spotted in uptown New York earlier this morning..."

"For fucks sake turn that shit off," Louis complained. Harry walked over to the radio in the gym and changed it to a different station. Ironically, their newest single was playing on the station Harry stopped on. Louis straightened up from his exercises and glared at the radio.

"Are you kidding me?" Harry snorted and changed the station again. Luckily it was playing a good song, so Harry left it. Liam, who was training by having tennis balls thrown at him from a pitching machine and blocking them with his force fields, let the field fall.

"What're we going to do about the tour?" he asked. They all paused their training at hearing this.

"I don't know," Louis said, "I guess it kinda depends on what S.H.I.E.L.D. says." He snorted and turned to Harry, "At least you can do our pyrotechnics for us now." Harry rolled his eyes and shook his head.

"And Liam can stop the things that get thrown at us onstage from hitting me in the balls again." Liam laughed.

"And Niall could keep us from getting rained on." Niall sighed.

"If I can ever get this power under control." He waved his hand and a cloud appeared over a bucket on the other side of the room. It started raining into the bucket but not too long after the rain started, there was a flash and the next thing Niall knew, the bucket was a melted pile of plastic. He sighed again and made the cloud disappear.

"At least you can control when the clouds appear now?" Harry said, trying to sound optimistic, "Remember, a couple days ago you couldn't. You made it rain on Louis in the middle of the night, while you were asleep." Louis frowned.

"How're we even gonna be able to keep being a band with these powers and S.H.I.E.L.D. breathing down our backs?" No one got the chance to answer, because Steve, Clint, and Natasha walked into the gym at that time.

"We talked to Fury," Steve said, "S.H.I.E.L.D. registered you four and added you to the Index. You have codenames now as well."

"Code names?"

"Like, how Clint is Hawkeye and Natasha is Black Widow." Louis's eyes widened in excitement.

"Our superhero names?" Steve nodded.

"Yeah," he said. Clint lifted a piece of paper for him to read it.

"Harry's Blazing Inferno," he started, "Louis is Psych, Liam is Electrofield, and Niall is Monsoon." He crumpled up the piece of paper and tossed it at Harry, who completely missed catching it.

"Burn that," Clint said, "Keep those names in the back of your mind. They're basically your alter egos now."

A.N:
Megan: Alright, so Autumn and I got to write the chapter up today.
Those superhero/code names really aren't the best ughhh they were the best I could come up with though. I do like Electrofield though. Niall's was the hardest to figure out like, we obviously couldn't do Storm and Monsoon was honest to god the best Autumn and I could come up with.
Autumn: I honestly can't wait for the upcoming chapters but they're so far...
