Shadow Of Darkness: Avengers x Male Reader

Chapter 35: Moping

2nd Person POV

You bounced over a drone, spraying shadow daggers into a second one that stood in front of you. The first drone then turned around to shoot in retaliation, but you cut through its arm and then its head using a blade.

Another robot approached from the air behind you, diving down towards you. You had just enough time to see the thing from the corner of the eye, but not enough to actually attack.

You planned to simply phase through it or turn to smoke, but an arrow pierced through the air and shot through the metal face plating of the thing. The drone hit the floor and slid past you limply.

Turning to the side, you eyed Clint with a curious expression. When did he appear? Clint smirked back at you and began walking over, holding his bow at his side.

"Don't thank me too soon." Clint moved to stand with you as you both scouted out more drones approaching the area.

"I could've handled that." You replied. The sound of rubble shifting made your head twist to look behind the two of you. Clint's sight followed yours in a much more relaxed manner, settling on Wanda as she stepped over the debris.

"I'm amazed she's actually alive." You crossed your arms. Clint shrugged as if he was silently thinking the same thing. Wanda glanced over at you both with a confused yet scared expression.

"Give it time." Clint muttered. The sound of thrusters above head made the three of you look up as more drones found you. There were about four with many more visibly approaching behind them.

Clint quickly loaded an arrow and shot down one while the two of them flew down. One went for Wanda and one went for you. Wanda deflected the drone back through a car with her power, while you shredded the other with a spray of dark blades from the ground.

"These things are annoying." You said with a roll of your eyes, sidestepping as the last drone shot at you. Clint quickly moved into your place, shooting the drone down before hastily moving towards you.

A group of six more drones glided down from the rooftops and rubble, putting the three of you o the back peddle.

"Go, go!" Clint began pushing Wanda who had frozen in place, guiding her to a nearby window to take cover while you chose the safe option of fading into the spirit realm to avoid being beamed.

Clint and Wanda dove through the window, narrowly avoiding a drone that swooped down towards them. Once inside the building, Clint quickly got up and crouched by a wall while Wanda scuttled into a corner.

"You guys okay?" You questioned as you blinked back into reality, moving into a crouch against the opposite wall.

"Depends what you count as 'okay.'" Clint remarked. You'd class that as a no.

"How could I let this happen." Wanda muttered to herself, wallowing in self pity as her head hung low. You were getting a little tired of babysitting whenever she was around. "This is all our fault."

"Hey, look at me." Clint turned to her. "It's your fault, it's everyone's fault. Who cares?"

"I mean, it's more her fault, but you have a point." You joked, making Clint slowly look at you.

"Not helping." He said. It wasn't supposed to be helpful. You were just stating facts.

"Fine. What do you want? A Rogers pep talk from me?" You narrowed your eyes as Clint then nodded and gave you a 'yes' to go along with it. You huffed, shifting yourself to kneel at the right of Wanda since Clint was in front of her.
