I barely watched a full episode of 'FRIENDS', when Natashs's voice came from the front of the Quinjet. "ETA 1minute. Get ready to deploy. Cap, opening bay doors. Starting descent." "No. It will be too late" saying so he jumped, deflecting an energy blast from Loki's scepter.I was pretty psyched up for my first fight, and I began stretching as I was nervous, not because I was scared, but because I wanted to do something cool, while saying a badass onliner like Schwarzenegger. While I was thinking what I wanted to say when I landed, Steve was getting his ass handed to him.
"You want an invitation or something? Just jump already." Natasha complained through the intercom. "I'm trying to think of saying something cool when I land." I retorted with a pout. She rolled her eyes at me and tilted the jet 45° and made me fall through the open bay door. When I fell through, my back was to the bay door. I quickly adjusted my angle of descent for a 'superhero landing'.
BOOOOOOOM!!!
I landed spreading dust all over the place. "HERE'S JONNY!!" I shouted. Everthing around me was quite. I changed into my Venom suit without the bigass grinning mouth(as I did not want to scare the people off on my debut), and put my guard up waiting for Loki's attack but nothing came. The dust settled in a couple of seconds and there Captain America was standing scratching his head in a mix of confusion and amusement. I raised an eyebrow at Steve, wanting to know the source and reason for his amusement and not fighting Loki. He just pointed at my foot. I looked down and there he was,the fallen Asgardian prince, the traitor, the trickster god, the source of Captain's mirth, lying face down in the cracked cement surface apparently knocked out as i realized that my knee had connected to the backside of his head.
"Son of a...". "Language." I was interrupted by Cap. I was so frustrated not because of the landing, but because I wanted to beat him up like how Hulk had slammed him on the ground repeatedly like a ragdoll. "Well there goes my chance." I thought. Natasha landed the jet and got off and cuffed him behind his back. " No. Cuff him with his hands on the front, he ain't called the Trickster God for nothing." Natasha nodded and set upon the task of securing him on the jet with a bit of help from Cap. I was looking for the sceptre and was shocked to see it in the hands of a man trying to walk away from the scene. " STOP!!!" I roared and jumped high and landed in front of him. He growled and pulled a gun from who knows where and pointed it at me.
BANG! BANG!
He double tapped me, one in my the chest and one in the face, but did no damage whatsoever. He realised that it was useless and looked back to see Cap and Natasha running in his direction at full tilt with their weapons at the ready. He made a decision and raised the sceptre and charged at me shouting, "HAIL HYDRAAAA!!" and pressing a button on his wristwatch blowing himself up right in front of me. I was thrown a few feet away literally unscatched, " Mere bombs and bullets ain't gonna do zilch." I thought to myself.
I felt something tingly on my abdomen and looked down seeing the sceptre pierced diagonally through my lower abdomen and through the left shoulder blade, hilt deep. I dropped down to my knees, my body weakening every passing moment, probably by the sceptre. Natsha and Cap reached me kneeling down not knowing what to do. "Don't move, I called for help." Natasha told me in a very soothing voice. "Stay with me ma'am, its OK. Everything is gonna be alright. Do not close your eyes. Stay Awake, you here me." Cap trying to calm me down as I was struggling to pull it out, as my hands were shaking being weakened and all.
"Just pull it out." I managed to say through gritted teeth. "Ms.Constantine please don't try to move. Help is on its way." Cap said, worried I might injure myself further. "F@cking Boyscout!" I thought to myself. Just then Iron-Man landed next to us, "Sorry. I was 'STUCK' in traffic." . I snorted, and retorted "Come on Stark, You could have done better. That was lame." I turned to Natasha and looked her right in the eyes and nodded hoping she would understand. And she did, she came forward and tried to pull at the scepter but was unsuccessful. Cap tried to stop us trying to pull it out but I said, "The longer it stays inside the longer it takes for me to heal, so shut up and just watch." I was a little pissed at him but I knew he was just concerned and my irritation for him quickly passed as soon as came.
Natasha tried again but failed. I did not want Cap to try as he was reluctant and definitely did not want to give Stark a chance, he seemed too eager to help. I suddenly had an idea. I concentrated on my right hand and made SCORN peel away from me. She was a little apprehensive parting with me but did so anyway. I made her crawl on to Nat's arm, who tried to pull away but stopped as i assured her it was safe. Sometimes i think she is too trusting of me.
I held on to Cap's arm and nodded at Nat. By now Natasha's whole body looked like it was covered by mercury. She held what little part of the handle was left outside my body and yanked it out, removing the whole sceptre in one pull. "F@CK!!!That hurt like a bitch!" as i was cursing, everyone could see me healing at a visible rate. The blood evaporated from my skin and the sceptre. I winked at Natasha, as she already tried to take my blood sample without me knowing, but it just evaporated in a few seconds as soon as it left my body. My skin closed up by itsef, leving nothing behind looking as if I was not stabbed by a metre long sharp rod at all. There was a silence which was broken by Stark, "Well, that's convenient."
