"(Y/N)!"

I heard my name as my eyes closed. I accepted my fate; today was the day. I was brought up by... something. I don't even remember. All I can think of right now is the air flowing around me as I freefall. I can't speak; I can hardly think right now. Maybe someone will catch me, but maybe not. I enjoyed my time with the Avengers. I suppose it had to come to an end. Then, I heard the sound of Mjolnir coming up next to me. Perhaps today isn't my day. I felt Thor's arms around me, but as I rested in them, I could hear what felt like every bone in my body crack and shatter. I arched my back with whatever remained of my spine and let out an ear-piercing shriek. Thor fumbled and dropped me again. I suppose even the God of Thunder isn't immune to my incredible screams. I focused on my healing powers, trying to do my best in fixing my body, but there was nothing I could feel that hurt other than the bones themselves. There was nothing I could do there. I healed my side from the blow I took earlier as I heard Tony flying up to me, grabbing me much softer and bringing me down to the ground.

"You won't be leaving us today, Crazy."

I managed to chuckle before my eyes closed completely. Tony shook me slightly, trying to keep me awake, but the dizziness I felt along with the metallic smell of blood filling my nose kept me under pretty well. I felt the ground beneath me and I could hear the other voices of my team. I couldn't understand what they were saying exactly, but I could tell they were arguing. Now was definitely not the time. I reached out my arm slightly, my hand wrapping around someone's leg. I possessed whoever it was to speak. My voice rang out through whoever's body this was.

"Now... isn't the time... we have to go..."

I couldn't keep my hold for long, but the small amount I was able to get out got the team moving quickly. I felt arms, most likely Steve's, wrapping around me, lifting me, and taking me away. I could hear the heavy footsteps of everyone combined as we made our way to the jet to go home. I'm placed on a row of seats on the jet and feeling Steve put me down ever so gently. I took a few deep breaths before feeling myself slipping even more. I rolled over on my side, wanting to get semi-comfortable for the ride home, if I made it. I could hear the team talking again as a pang ran through my body, from my feet, throughout my body, and ending at my head. I let out a dull groan, gaining the attention of the team. Someone walked over to me, placing a hand on my neck and checking my pulse.

"We're losing her."

It was Tony, I reached my arm out to grab his wrist. He jumped slightly, but relaxed when I softly breathed his name.

"T...tony..."

I could hear someone speaking for just a moment before my arm dropped to the side and my breathing slowed even further. I wish I knew what happened after, but it felt like I was completely gone. I wanted to speak, but everything went deadly silent.
