Tara's P.O.V

    I stood up testing if anything was broken. I cringed, nothing was broken but I'm going to have some nasty bruises. I watched Steve get up winceing.
"You okay?" I asked him. He looked at me strange before answering.
"Nothing's broken"
"That's good" I said turning away. Suddenly shadows swarmed around me. We were going to fight, that means I need fighting gear. Luckily I could configure shadows into a fighting suit if I really was unprepared. Which I was way to much these days.
"You guys ready" The Earth's Mightiest Heroes really weren't all that impressive if you ask me.
"As ready as well ever be!" Said Tony looking very impressed by my sudden leadership. At that response I turned and walked away.
"Wait!" I turned and saw Tony looking at me.
"You'll need this" he handed me a com.
"Thanks" I put it in my ear and turned away. I ran out the door straight into five armed gunmen in black outfits running towards me. Before they could shoot me I threw knife after knife all of them hitting their targets. As I kept on running I knew I needed to get outside to see what was wrong with the aircraft craft. "JARVIS can you please tell me how to get out of this aircraft." I said into the com.
"If you take a left, then right the third door on the left should lead you into the flight deck"
"Thank you JARVIS" As I reached the flight deck the aircraft craft tipped abruptly and I nearly went flying over the side.
"Does anyone have visual on the main problem of the ship?"
"Yes" Said Tony "two of the four engine's are down" Crap.
"How damaged?" If they were still startable we may be able to save this air craft.
"There not pretty."
"Will they be able to run?"
"They could but it will take a lot of power to start." I was so busy talking that I didn't notice the small army of armed men collecting around me.
"I don't think that's a good idea" None of them said anything until.
"Experiment Shadow please come with us you have not-" He didn't get to finish his sentence as he got hit in the head by a sheild. I turned and saw Steve catch his sheild.
"Thought you needed some help." I looked at him and scowled.
"I have the highest kill count in all of America I can fend for myself." At that I turned and walked towards the end of the air craft. And jumped.

Steve's P.O.V

    I ran to the edge of the aircraft after Tara jumped off. I didn't know why she would jump. I looked down and saw her with two black wings of shadows. She flew up and raised her hands towards an oncomeing jet. Shadows trailed along the jet and the engine failed. The jet went down and she landed on the deck beside me. She looked at all the men that had there guns raised. Another man stepped forward.
"Experiment Sh-" He was cut off by a bullet landing in his scull. I took out the rest before they could fire there bullets with my sheild. Tara scowled at me and the aircraft abruptly tilted.

Tara's P.O.V

    "Tara if your going to help me with the aircraft then it needs to happens now!"
"Sorry got to go Steve" I turned and hopped into the sky. I had to keep this aircraft in the air. "Tony, where are you?"
"Engine three" I started flying towards it. Once I arrived and landed I saw the state of the engine. There was no propellers left.
"How are we supposed to fix that?" I looked at Tony.
"Your shadows" my eyes widened. I couldn't hold it that long.
"I can't"
"You have to" I looked at him and then back at the engine. I closed my eyes and pulled. I pulled at all the darkness and shadows around me. I could see everywhere. I saw engine four blowing up. I was thrown across the deck and into the railing. I fell hitting the ground. "Stay here! I'm going to lower the ship." Tony couldn't hold that much weight.
"Tara!" I looked and saw Steve.
"Steve, Tony can't hold the weight of the entire aircraft."
"I know but we have no other option." But we did if I could controll the Shadows enough to lower the aircraft to the ground then we might be able to survive. I got up leaning against the railing I looked down and saw a peice of metal sticking out of my stomach. But I had to save us. Everyone and everything on this aircraft. So I stood and grabbed my magic with everything I had and held the aircraft in the air and slowly started lowering it to the ground.
