《You're the guy my dad never shut up about? | S. Rogers [1]》12. Battle on the helicarrier
Advertisement
When she landed on the ground, Tony and Steve landed at either side of her. Tony on her right, Steve on her left. Great, Stark sandwich.
"Ow, okay. Someone landed on my leg" Galilea groaned. Tony and Steve looked at her and then at each other.
"Put on the suit" Steve told Tony.
"Yup" Tony replied. They helped her up and ran out of the room.
Galilea looked around and saw everyone gone. There's a huge hole on the ground, smoke coming out of... everywhere, and she's just standing here like and idiot.
"Stark, we need you on the bridge" she heard Nick through the earpiece.
"Which Stark?" She asked.
"You" he replied.
Galilea ran out of the room, down corridors. Workers and agents are running around, and she helped people that need it. A whooshing sound was heard on her left. She turned around and saw Thor's hammer flying towards her.
"Aaah" she ducked and the hammer flew over her head. "Thor your hammer almost killed me!" She yelled into the earpiece. He muttered a quick sorry.
Gali finally made it to the bridge where it's a mess. People on computers and monitors, agents walking around, Nick talking with Agent Hill.
"I'm here" She ran up to eye patch man. He was about to say something but Agent Hill yelled,
"Grenade!"
There was an explosion and they all set off to fight the guys that walked in. Nick and Gali took down the two men that are wearing Shield uniforms. A third guy came in but Hill took care of him.
Galilea somehow ended up with a gun and shot the bad guys. No worries. She's super good at that. Natasha good. She started practicing when her aunt Peggy gave her her first gun. The gun soon ran out of bullets, so she ditched it and used her powers.
An explosion was heard. Gali looked up and saw Barton shooting arrows from the vents. She threw a force ball at him, but he dodged it. The arrow he threw did something to the computers, all the screens went black.
"Engine one is on shut down!"
The helicarrier tilted to the left and started falling. This isn't going well. She heard Nick tell Tony through the earpiece,

"Stark, we're loosing altitude"
"Yup, noticed" he replied.
"Don't worry, I got this" Gali went to the part of the bridge where Tony was standing at when she first entered the room.
"What are you doing?" Nick asked.
"Making this thing stay in the air" She concentrated on the helicarrier, picturing it in the air, leveling the ship. She felt it move.
She lifted her hand up just a bit. They're bended at the sides of her stomach in an upward position. She put more energy into it and the ship started to level up, but not enough, they're are still falling. Wow this thing is heavy.
"Tony, hurry up over there, this ship is not light" she managed to say.
"I'm going" he replied.
"Stark we-"
Galilea interrupted Nick. "Which one? Okay you know what, from now on Tony is Stark and I'm young Stark or Galilea. Just put a difference in it!"
The ship continued to fall. She put more energy. It's draining all of her energy, and she's getting weaker by the second.
"Tony, this is too heavy" She groaned.
"Hold on"
Hurry up. I've never used so much energy like this in one day. It's exhausting.
She heard Tony tell Steve to get some lever, but apparently he has some problems of his own. I don't care if he has problems, get the damn lever!
"Tony" I whispered "hurry"
I can't do this anymore.
She eventually stopped and fell, but before she hit the floor, someone caught her. Gali thought the ship was going to fall but it stayed in the air. Guess Tony managed to fix it.
The guy helped her over to the table and she slowly sat down on a chair. He said he was going to get her some water. He left and a doctor came over to check on her. She told her that she's okay so she left to attend others.
The man came back and gave her the water. Just as the guy left, Nick's voice was heard in the earpiece.
"Agent Coulson is down. They're here, they've called it"
What?! No. No, no, no, no. Not Phil. Not Phily. Please not him. Oh my god.
Warm tears ran down her cheeks. He can't be gone, not like that. My god, he was like a dad to me!

Tears are still running down her face, but she has to tell herself to stop, or otherwise she'll be a train wreck in five minutes. She wiped the tears off her face, took big breaths and drank some water.
Breathe.
Where's Tony? Oh boy.
"Tony?" She asked through the earpiece. It was quiet for a few seconds and then his voice came through.
"Gali, where are you?"
"On the bridge"
"Stay there"
The room is clearing out, all the injured were taken to the infirmary, and Galilea has no idea where the none-injured are. So now she's in the quiet room, all alone waiting for her brother.
Footsteps were heard from the corridor, she turned to the door and saw Tony walking in, Steve right behind him.
She gawked at Steve for a second. Tight long blue sleeved shirt that hugs his upper body perfectly, his Captain America pants that do the same thing to his legs, and his red boots. Oh gawd. Stop it Galilea.
"Gali!" Tony yelled when he saw his sister. She got out of the chair and was immediately embraced in a bear hug. "Are you okay?" He asked into my hair.
"I'm fine" she replied. They let go and he asked me if she was sure. A wave of dizziness came over her and her vision went blurry "Maybe a little dizzy"
He helped her sit back in a chair, and she rested her head on the table. I'm so tired. It wouldn't hurt if I close my eyes for 5 minutes.
She closed them and slowly drifted off to sleep.
"Gali...Gali"
Silence.
"Galilea!"
"What?" She turned on the bed. Wait? Bed? She opened her eyes, sat up and looked around. She's in the room she was assigned to.
"Get up, we're going to New York" Tony said. Gali looked at him confused.
"What? Why?"
"Loki's there, we need to leave" he pushed her off the bed and out of the room. Kay, geez.
"I don't know about this"
"Too bad, hang on" Tony, who's wearing his Iron Man suit, wrapped an arms around his sister. They flew off the helicarrier and through the cold air. Gali let out a scream.
"This is so dangerous!" She yelled.
"Relax, it's safe"
"Safe?! Tony, the time we fought the guy with the electric whips was safer than this shit!" She shouted. Tony took a sharp left. She let out a scream as she tighten her grip around him.
Oh please, let us be close to the city. She prayed in her head.
As if her prayers were heard, she saw the tall buildings of New York City. As they got closer to the city, she told Tony to leave her by the cafe.
"What for?" He asked.
"Just in case things get out of hand with Loki" she answered. They landed in front of the coffee place, drawing a crowd around them.
"Here, if you need it" Tony handed her two Iron Man suit bracelets. She took them and looked at them confused.
1. Where did he have them hidden away?
2. I thought my suit was still under repair, because it suffered an accident.
"It's for one of mine. I'm still repairing yours" Gali smiled and put them on.
"Thanks. Now go kick Loki out of our tower" She shooed him away. He chuckled before flying off to the tower. Gali turned around and saw people sanding around, staring.
She waved and some waved back. She walked out of the square and her stomach made a noise. Great! In the middle of something important, and I'm hungry! Hmm, sounds like me.
She went to McDonalds, ordered a burger, fries and a soda to go. Good thing about having powers is that she doesn't need to carry a bunch of things. She put her drink and fries in the air, and took a bite out of the McChicken.
She was walking down the street when she heard something up in the sky. She looked up and saw a blue ray shooting up to the sky, and once it was high enough it created a hole, things came out of it.
Small explosions were seen up there and Gali immediately thought of Tony. Things didn't go as planned.
Damn you Loki.

Humanity's End
Given a year to prepare by the mysterious ‘system’ for contact with the wider galaxy, humanity must work to ensure the Earth’s defense is ready to meet any challenge. Sadly, most of the world seems dedicated to tearing itself apart as the year-end deadline gets closer. The west is in barely contained Chaos, while the east descends into internal conflict and war. The Pillar Forts, one of the few successful projects of the United Nations headed by the United States, stand ready to defend humanity against any invasion that may come through the strange Connection Pillars that appeared on each continent. Massive steel and stone walls that surround the Connection Pillars. They are filled with deadly men and women trained in all manner of warfare, each trained in the newly acquired System with skills and magical abilities that they put to deadly purpose. Beside these brave warriors, tanks, helicopters, artillery and more stand ready to defend humanity at each of these powerful installations. But, can they overcome the disparity in levels and experience between themselves and the forces that threaten them and the rest of humanity? Main Characters Jessica Brown- A young African American girl. Her 18th birthday in Detroit was the same day the systems message appeared. She discovered she was Level 7, much higher than most of the rest of the world. Why she is blessed, or cursed, with the power she doesn’t know. But what she does know is that she rather likes the feeling that comes with manipulating magic. The week after her birthday, government workers started testing every person in the US in a massive census effort of skills and abilities. Jessica Brown found herself conscripted into the US Magical Corp, a new branch of the US Military, and shipped off to a Pillar Fort. Somewhere hot and muggy in her ancestors’ home of Africa. As she grows stronger, she finds she has some connection to the pillars. While everyone else sees beauty or danger when they look at the pillars, after connection is made all Jessica can see is a Tree. A tree the size of the entire universe. Isaka Smith - is a third generation American and farmer who just wants to be left alone. But she is dragged into the situation by events beyond her control. When people in her small town had to deal with rioters and looters after the system announcement, she rallied them to defend themselves, earning her a trait that the government found extraordinarily useful. After a visit to a local reservation, she finds herself conscripted to lead one of the many small support towns erected around the great pillar forts. Not near her old home, but in far-flung Africa. John McIntire, the “Fighting Bull” -The commander of the African Fort, but because of circumstances beyond his ability to contend with shortly after taking command after being re-activated from retirement, he finds communication with his chain of command increasingly difficult. The US government, hell, even the United Nations, seems to have fallen into complete and utter chaos. The African Union is embroiled in a bitter civil war just outside his door, and supposedly, most of the world governments are in similar situations. Meanwhile, John must do his best to be ready to facilitate diplomacy, or to match the hostile argument of whatever force might come through the pillar of light when the year timer finishes counting down. Can our heros defend Earth from outside threats, while it tares itself apart? Or will they need to rebuild from the ground up? DEDICATION: This story is dedicated to my father who passed away recently. Jim Holloway, you’ll be missed you old silverback gorilla. Love you dad. Always have, always will.

The Flame in the Forge (A Slice of Life Isekai LitRPG)
Thrown into a world he doesn’t recognise, Niall Vendra has to adapt, learn and fight to survive. Physically, emotionally, personally. If Niall wants to save his family, then the man he was needs to transform. Surrounded by Minotaurs, Fae and Magic, Niall will have to reinvent himself as both a warrior and an artisan. Growth won’t be fast and it won’t be easy, but with patience and hard work, Niall can earn the Skills, Abilities and Classes to battle his way to the top. The Flame In The Forge is a LitRPG Isekai/Portal fantasy. You should expect slice of life with conflict and an overarching mystery to be solved. Niall will be both a crafter (primarily, but not exclusively, as a blacksmith) and a fighter. There won’t be a harem. But don't worry, there will be both flames and forges! I should be clear that while this is very much LitRPG, it's story led and I have tried to make it feel believable. So, for example, the first blue box doesn't appear until chapter 6. I hope that the payoff is worth it. Compared to some LitRPGs you may find the pace rather gentle at times. There will be some periods where it feels like Niall is eking out every level and others when, for good reasons, he makes a significant leap. My goal though is to give you a satisfying story, so that dictates when and how Niall's stats and skills change. I can reassure you that I fully intend for Niall to become immensely powerful, but I want you to feel like he has earned every level in a realistic way.
