The group of heroes walked toward one of the QuinJets when a man on board looked at them, "You guys aren't authorized to be-", Steve went to say something but Ashlyn's eyes flashed red, "Son, just don't. Walk away and say nothing.", he nodded and walked off the QuinJet. "Damn Asher." She chuckled and looked down, "I really hate the name." Clint smiled and the two made their way to the front of the Jet, readying for take off. Nat smiling at the two. "Asher since when can you make people listen to you?", Ashlyn laughed, "Since I was born folks. Apparently I'm cute and hard to resist." Everyone laughed and she rolled her eyes but Clint looked at her and winked, she gave him a smile, "Now let's go kick some spoiled Asgardian ass." The QuinJet took to the air and it was time for the game to end and the fight to begin.
Ashlyn stood by Steve has they flew to New York, she glanced up at the Super soldier, "This is gonna be bad isn't it?", he glanced down at her, "Whatever happens we do it together." She gave him a smile, "Hey guys, we're getting close." She looked back at Natasha and Clint, giving them both a smile. Clint gave her a smile and Ashlyn glanced down before turning back around. "Modlime sa nám vydržia do boja.", Steve glanced down and Ashlyn was holding her cross necklace.
Ashlyn sighed has she seen the destruction already caused by Loki, "This is horrible." She shook her head, "We have to get down there." Clint looked at her, "We will." She gave him a nod and took a deep breath, her eyes glowing red. She was red for battle. "What did you guys stop for drive thru?", she chuckled at Tony, "Calm down metal head, not all of us have flying suits." The group smiled and a smirk fell on her face has the red energy filled her palms.

Ashlyn and Thor were fighting off the Destroyer, the Warriors three and the civilians in a shop. "Ashlyn what are you doing?", she sighed and clicked off her ear piece and tossed it out, Thor flew by her and she hurried and helped him up before flicking her wrist and energy filled her palms. "Lady Ashlyn." She gave a smile and ran forward. She had to give Thor enough time to prove himself worthy of his own hammer. She threw an energy ball at the destroyer and then flicked her wrist and hit the thing with a down electric pole. She huffed, "It has to have a weakness, everything does." She stepped forward, "Loki, stop this. Think of your mother, Freya." Thor watched has Ashlyn tried reasoning with Loki, but he wasn't quick enough to help when it shot at her with its beam. Ashlyn quickly flicked her wrist and her swords appeared and she crossed them in front of her, the beam pushing her back, but not making contact with her. She had to help these people. She grunted has the beams power became stronger and soon it just disappeared, making her fall flat on her back and roll to her feet, "Seriously." She watched has Thor fought the destroyer with his powers back, she flipped back on her ear piece, "You seeing this?", Clint scoffed, "Still working on believing." She laughed, "This is gonna be news." She jogged to the store the others were held up in while Thor finished Loki's Destroyer. She smiled, this was going to change the world.

Ashlyn made eye contact with Loki and he smirked, before firing at the QuinJet, "Hang on!", she grabbed a handle above her and the Jet went down. She shook her head and stepped out, "Everyone alright?", she got a chorus of yeahs and she smiled before frowning, "Stark, you seeing this?", Ashlyn smiled and looked at Clint but he was alright looking at her, "Seeing yes, still working on believing." She groaned and flicked her wrist, "I'm going to start doing damage control.", she ran off and began her part in the Battle of New York.
Ashlyn had made it back to the group and killed 4 Chitari Warriors by Clint, "Thanks!", she chuckled and gave him a wink before fighting off some more of the Warriors. "We need a game plan here." Everyone nodded but froze at the sound f a motorcycle, "Banner, he's here." Ashlyn smiled at him, "Tell him to suit up, I'm bringing the party to you." Ashlyn looked at Natasha, "Well this all seems horrible.", Natasha gave him a smile, "I've seen worse." Bruce frowned, "Sorry." Ashlyn spoke up, "We could use worse." Everyone glanced up has Tony rounded the corner, "I don't see how that's a party." Ashlyn's eyes were wide, "Now might be a good time to get angry Doctor." He smiled, "That's my secret Asher, I'm always angry.", with that statement he began to grow and turn green before turning and punching the worm thing in the head and Tony shot the body with his blasters, Clint and Ashlyn hid behind a car.
The group stood together, Ashlyn killing the Warriors that got to close for comfort has they talked, "Tony, you get to watch patterns and perimeter, if anything gets 3 blocks out turn it back or turn it to ash. Clint, you get strays and watch what sector needs more attention." He nodded and Tony looked at him, "Better clench up Legolas." The two disappeared and Ashlyn watched for a moment before two chitari Warriors caught her eye and she sent energy through them, "Thor, you've got the Lightning, keep a bottle on the portal and light the bastards up." He nodded and took off, "Us three, we're down here. Oh and Hulk, smash." Bruce jumped away and smashed some chitaris and Ashlyn nodded, "Destructive, but effective." She looked at the portal and then at Steve, "Good plan, Star Spangled Man." He laughed and put his head down, "Watch out!", Ashlyn jumped forward and put up a force field, a Chitari carrier running right into it and exploding. "Let's kill these guys." Ashlyn turned to her Phoenix form and a smirk fell on her face has Steve and Natasha were flanking her.

Ashlyn was walking with Clint around D.C., "I've thought about moving and not telling S.H.I.E.L.D. I need some privacy and peace, that's hard to get when you live in D.C. and are a S.H.I.E.L.D agent." Clint looked at her has she took a drink of her coffee, "Where would you go?", she smiled, "I've always loved the idea of a cute farm house in the middle of nowhere. Two story, porch swing, wrap around deck, a garden, a tractor, maybe a few animals. The whole works." He gave her a smile, "Yeah?", she nodded, "Yeah, but I wouldn't want it on file or anything." He nodded, "A secret from S.H.I.E.L.D." She nodded, "They keep plenty from us." He chuckled, "We keep plenty from our coworkers." She gave him a look, "I tell you everything, you're my only coworker I care about. Besides Phil, Nick, and Nat anyways." He smiled, "I know." She rolled her eyes and gently shoved him, walking away when he stumbled and laughing has he hurried after her, a massive smile on both their faces.
