Flying In the arms of Iron Man… Oh goodness. It was sooo cooooool! The feeling of air on your skin, and the fact that you were actually flying… It just made you happy, and you forgot about everything what was going on down there, even if only for a moment. Mr. Stark seemed to fly slowly and carefully, to not harm you in any way, and you were very grateful for that. Looking around with chilled expression, you suddenly thought that if you stayed alive long enough to have kids, you would have brilliant stories about this day to tell them, and that made you smile even wider.

But the fly couldn’t last forever, could it? While landing, all came back to you: Aliens destroying New York, fighting, and most importantly – pain in your leg. But you had to ignore it, you were playing a badass guy who doesn’t even notice such things, right? Right. So you made a tough expression, and turned your face to Mr. Stark, who lifted up his mask again.

-So kid, I leave you here. There is no way I’m taking you somewhere where is more dangerous, you’re staying here, understood?

- But…

- Good. Hide, and if you see anything alien-like, shoot at it. No, there is nothing more you can do, I’m not taking you anywhere that you could be harmed.

- Um… Thanks, Mr. Stark…

- It’s Tony. Now I really have to go kid, take care. – and he was gone, just like that.

- Thanks, Tony… - you whispered to receding figure, even if you knew that he couldn’t hear you. And you were alone again, it made you sad a bit, considering a fact that he didn’t even ask you for your name or anything, didn’t even thank you for helping… Probably you won’t meet him again. But, sadness later, now – hide and shoot. You looked around, looking for a place to hide, and your sight met somehow undamaged building that looked like an art school or something – colorful walls with lots of banner ads, and lots of columns and balconies, again. You smiled to yourself, deciding that columns and balconies will be your good friends from today.

You ran in the direction of the building, but suddenly, you heard something. Something bad. You stopped just next to the building, looking around and trying to find the source of the noise. But you didn’t see anything. ”Screw those balconies, I can’t see anything from here, why is everything happening up there… Wait. Balconies.”. Suddenly, an idea popped up in your head. The building wasn’t damaged at all, or at least it looked like it wasn’t. So, inside it could be OK too… And you could go to one of those balconies, you would sure have a better view from there, and better possibilities to fight. Ok, no time to lose, so you just ran inside the building, looking for stairs or whatnot. From the decor you noticed that you were right, it was an art school, paintings and sculptures everywhere. But right now some of them fell to the floor, chaos everywhere, all doors opened, probably lots of people were running from here in panic.

-Modern art… - you murmured to yourself with a smirk, looking at all that chaos around you. But right now there was more important thing - the stairs, you had to find them. With all doors open and stuff, it was pretty easy actually. You saw the elevator doors too, but you didn’t want to risk – it could be broken or anything, better use the stairs. So you started to run upstairs, as fast as you could. Soon you were panting and sweating, running through the stairs was tiring, and your condition really could be better, but it wasn’t the right time to complain, you had to go further up. Further. And further. And… Finally! You didn’t really know what floor was that, but the stairs were finishing here, so you had to be pretty high.

-Huh, I’m so high… - you murmured to yourself, running to the nearest balcony window. ”Second stupid joke to myself in a few minutes… Good, (y/n), really good” you thought with irony, flouncing to the balcony, and looking around – yup, pretty high – you murmured again. Finally, you were able to locate the source of the noise – the aliens were climbing at the walls… You quickly looked above you, and breathed a sigh of relief – no aliens nearby. So you just focused on the aliens you could see, and shot at them, in the same moment trying to stay hidden behind the balcony railing. Ugh, they were moving fast, but you hit some of them, and watched them fall at the ground. Good, now, focus and shoot more of them, you can do it, you can… Aaahh! You screamed in surprise, when the alien suddenly showed up just in front of you, holding the railing of your balcony. Not thinking much, you shot him – straight in the face. It fell, and so you did – panting and leaning against the wall behind your back. God, it was scary as hell! Different thing shooting at them, and different thing seeing one face to face… But ugh, badass, brave, fighting with aliens – remember? No time to lying at the ground and doing nothing. So you got up to be able to shoot again, but this time you carefully checked the walls under your balcony, making sure that no more aliens will surprise you like that.

And just as you were to start shooting again, you saw it – two platforms, flying by you. But there wasn’t aliens on them, on one there was a woman with red hair, and on the other the man with strange, golden helmet with horns or something. You weren’t sure are they those bad ones, or the good ones… So you just watched, curious of what to do. But suddenly, when they were nearby the Stark Tower, they just… Disappeared in the explosion… What was going on? But no time for thinking, you saw those flying ones. Shoot, shoot, don’t think of those people on platforms… And after a few minutes of shooting, you saw a next strange thing – was it Tony? Wait… Was he flying to that blue hole? And holding something? What is going on?!

-TONY! – you scream, even you know he can’t hear you, but you just can’t stop yourself. And then you see it, he disappears in the hole, why did he do that? What was he holding? Tony…  You’re too focused on the hole to even shoot at the aliens, you just watch with tenseness, begging for Tony to get out from there. You forget about the aliens around you, and don’t even care about it, you only see the hole, you’re not able to see anything else - even that the aliens, like… Stopped. Like they were dead. And then, the hole is starting to dwindle, and he is still in there… ”No, no, Tony!” you think, feeling the tears in your eyes, you’re scared and… And suddenly, just before the hole closes, you see him, falling from the sky. And the other man, you have no idea who is that, catches him, and disappears from your sight. You sigh with relief, and finally notice the dead aliens all around you. At first you’re confused, but then something clicks in your head.  ”So… That thing was a bomb… He saved us… He saved us!” you think, panting heavily, lying on your balcony, can’t hold back your tears anymore, your body shivering from all that tenseness. It’s finally over… And then, probably from blood loss and all that emotions, you slowly fall unconscious, not even able of thinking what will happen to you now. But you’re alive, it’s the only thing that matters now, so you smile, seeing more and more black, not really knowing what’s happening.

Ok, this chapter is pretty short, but I didn't really know how to make it longer. Have to admit, I have many posibilities with plot now, I don't even know what to do with you. xD But don't worry, I'm not going to put you in danger again. For now... xD

Please, if you find any grammar or other mistakes, tell me, and I'll fix that. Also, if you have any tips or advice for me, go ahead, I'm very, very beggining writer. ;-; (In this place big thanks to ~Aivilo3261 who reminded me of this paragraph thingy, dude, you save my day!).

If you like it, please comment.

Ps. Plot for now looks, like you won't meet Loki and Thor - but don't worry of it, I'm too in love with Loki, they will show up for sure. :>
