If the world was ending... part 2
The rumbling had gotten louder and louder, until it was pressing down on everyone's eardrums, causing them to double over, trying to escape from the pushing in of the noise.
Then it stopped.
They looked up to see a bright red woman standing in front of them. "I am Anora. Lord of the Darkens. Hand over the children."
Everyone looked confused, "which children?"
"The ones who are not from this universe. We shall study them, and bring light on this new discovery."
"I'm afraid that's not an option," Steve got ready to fight, as did the others
"I didnt ask," she rose up, and behind her an army of dark creatures slowly approaching, waiting for the battle signal
"I dont care," Steve responded
She looked angry, before letting out a loud bellow.
The creatures attacked.
Nat fought off ten creatures at once, using her widow bites to make them, before going in to finish the job.
Clint found a high place, and began shooting his arrows at their attacking line, killing some before they could touch the others.
Steve knocked them out with his shield, tossing it around. He threw a few punches, here and there, and discovered that they fed off of unsureness and doubt.
Tony flew up with his suit, and Stephen's Cape drew him up. They met with Anora, and began the fight with her.
Wanda tossed energy at her attackers, killing at least ten at one time, and flew up to join Tony and Stephen.
Vanya shut her eyes, honing in on one sound. Wanda's heartbeat. It was fast, but consistent. She drew in her energy before letting it explode out, killing the creatures surrounding her. She flew up to join Wanda, Tony and Stephen.
Five jumped in between creatures, stabbing or punching them before disappearing and moving on to another.
Allison helped Nat, occasionally whispering to the creatures to turn them against each other. Whatever they were, her rumouring powers still worked on them.
Diego ran to the edge of their attack line, before carefully throwing a knife that slit through the line, cutting open the heads of the creatures. When the knife came back to him, it was dripping in blood.
Klaus covered for Ben as they rushed into the centre of the battlefield, and Ben opened his chest to let the Monster do its work.
Peter zipped through the sky, webbing up creatures and mainly saving his teammates from their inevitable death. What he normally did, they just didnt know.
The battle had been ongoing for a couple of hours, and Vanya felt Wanda weakening. She gripped her arm, and the other girl looked at her through her haze of red.
Vanya gave her a smile and whispered, "almost done."
Wanda nodded, and they both knew what to do.
It had been a thing they had worked on without anyone's knowledge, as they hadn't perfected it yet. But now was the time to try.
They both flew up to the Lord, and floated on either side.
She was the only one left- they had killed her army.
Everyone else was gathering on the ground, looking up at the two most powerful members of their team.
Wanda nodded to Vanya, who smiled back.
They each let their power flow out of them, meeting in the middle and forming a half red, half white bubble around the Lord. She gave a scream which was muffled by the energy surrounding her.
Wanda's head felt heavy, and she knew she was about to pass out. Nevertheless, she kept on until the last moment, when they let their power explode, disintegrating the bubble, and the women inside.
Both girls fell to the ground, Stephen and Tony flying to catch them.
They placed them both gently in the floor, and Stephen checked for pulses as the other gathered round.
He grinned, letting out a breath he hadn't been aware of holding as he felt the shallow, but present, beat of both their hearts.
Medical and evac arrived soon after, taking Luther's lifeless body and Wanda and Vanya's barely alive ones.
The others crawled in to a jet, planning on getting a few hours sleep in the ride to the tower.
Allison had nightmares of her dead brother.
Five imagined his dead sister.
Diego dreamt of the pain he would have felt to loose two of his siblings in one day.
Klaus slept restlessly, heading to the world of the dead to see his brother and father. It hadn't been a very good trip- slightly awkward.
Ben slept soundly after The Monster had taken everything from him.
Vanya and Wanda shared a dream of orchestra's and witches and aliens.
Peter dreamt of Wanda's lifeless face, and how he would feel if his best friend died.
She wasnt dead.
Not yet...
