We're Still Here - Captain America Fanfic

11. I've Seen Worse

The three made their way to the Quinjet hangar. Hawkeye had a recurve bow and quiver full of arrows Steve and Lucy had their shields. As they walked into the Quinjet, the pilot stood in their way.

"You are not authorized to be here," he tried saying. Lucy held her hand up, stopping him from talking.

"Son," she said, "Just don't." They took the jet and began to fly it toward New York City. They flew toward Stark Tower and went to shoot at Loki. The jet was shot down by Loki using the scepter. The ramp opened and Steve and Lucy ran down followed by Natasha and Clint. They arrived in the middle of a four-way street just as the portal for the Chitauri opens up. They begin shooting at innocents.

"Stark, are you seeing this?" Steve asked Tony through the earpiece.

"Seeing, still working on believing. Where's Banner? Has he shown up yet?"

"Banner?"

"Just keep me posted. Jarvis, find me a soft spot." Lucy looked down the bridge.

"Those people need assistance down there," she said. Natasha pulled out two pistols and began shooting at the Chitauri. She turned to look at Lucy.

"We got this," Natasha said. "It's good. Go!" Lucy nodded before turning to Hawkeye.

"You think you can hold them off?"

"Ma'am," Clint began saying, "It would be my genuine pleasure." Lucy and Steve jumped off the bridge after Clint shot an arrow buying them some time causing an explosion to go off. They jumped over the dozens of cars that were in the streets. Steve jump on the top of a police car while Lucy fought some of the Chitauri that stayed on the street. A police Sergeant was there with a younger cop.

"We need men in these buildings," Steve began ordering. "There are people inside that can run into the line of fire. You take them through the basement or through the subway. You keep them off the streets. I need a perimeter as far back as 39th."

"Why the hell would I take orders from you?" the policeman asked in a heavy New York accent. An explosion occurred behind Steve and Lucy. Steve blocked an energy blast with his shield. Two of the Chitauri soldier's began to attack the two soldiers who fought them off with ease. The police watched them in shock. The policeman turned to the young cop and deputies standing behind them.

"I need men in those buildings," he began to order, "Lead the people down and away from the streets. I need the perimeter as far back as 39th." Steve and Lucy joined back with Hawkeye, Natasha and now Thor.

"What's the story upstairs?" Steve asked.

"The power surrounding the Cube is impenetrable," Thor replied.

"Thor is right," Tony said through the earpiece. "We gotta deal with these guys."

"How do we do this?" Natasha asked.

"As a team," Lucy replied.

"I have unfinished business with Loki," Thor spoke looking to the two females and males around him.

"Yeah, get in line," Clint remarked sarcastically.

"Save it," Steve spoke. "Loki's gonna keep this fight focused on us and that's what we need. Without him, these things could run wild. We got Stark up top, he's gonna need us..." The sound of a motor caused Steve to stop. He turned to see Bruce arrive on a motorbike. He got off and began to walk toward the group.

"So, this all seems horrible," he calmly said.

"I've seen worse," Natasha spoke.

"Sorry."
