Lydia Lynn Jones finished with the scene they had just gone over, tears running down her face as she imagined herself in Raven's place.  finding out your best friend is out for blood... specifically yours and that you have to be the one to end their life.   That's rough.  Once the Russo brothers gave her the OK to drop out of her character she brushed back the tears and smiled widely at everyone in the room.

"Well, I think that went well."  She remarked, she wasn't full of herself but she had pretty good self-esteem.  

"That was great!!"  Evans said, smiling back, "How old are you again?"  

"13.  And thanks."   She said, her smile somehow growing wider.

"Well, that'll be all, thanks for coming out Lydia, marvelous work, as always."  Anthony Russo said.  

"Wait, before I go, could I have you guys sign this?"  She said, handing the actors an Age of Ultron poster and a sharpie.  "I have a sister who's a big fan and I told her that I'd try to get it signed."

"You have a sister?"  Hemsworth asked, while in the process of signing the poster.

"I have five of 'em and six brothers."  She said, sighing.

Hemsworth whistled at that, and Evans looked at her apologetically, Downey laughed, "How's that treating you?"

"It's all right, there's just... never a dull moment, I guess?"  She said, though in a slightly questioning tone.

They chatted a bit, but the Russo brothers said that they still had one more girl to audition and that she would know in the morning if she had made the last cut.

RDJ's POV

We auditioned one more girl, but she just didn't have the fire that the role took and I could tell that the Russo's minds were made up, and frankly, out of the three girls we auditioned today, I could tell exactly who had the role, it was the second girl, Lydia.  The one with the different colored eyes and dark brown hair.

"Lydia's got the role right?"  I asked to no one in particular after the last girl had left.

"Depends on what you guys think of her."  Anthony Russo said, gesturing for us to talk it out.  Evan's asked for her file and we looked over it

"She's better than good."  Hemsworth remarks, "I say we keep her."

"I do too, she's got an amazing amount of potential." Evans agrees.

"I knew it was her the moment she walked in." I say, smiling.

We turned to the Russo brothers, "Send her the e-mail in the moring, she's the one."  I said, the others nodding in confirmation.

We had our newest Avenger.
