Based of this post [x] created by the wonderful and insanely talented skyfallat221b who is now spectralarchers I wasn't going to post this chapter, I get that it has been ages since the first chapter but I hit a real low with my writing thanks to an English teacher. He tore apart a piece of creative writing I had written and to make a long story short gave my condense a kick in the teeth I did not need. The thing is I decided that I was not going to let them define me and stop me from doing something I enjoy, I apologise to any of you who were hoping it was going to come sooner and I apologise even more if you think its bad, but I have a lot of muse for writing this out, so its going to keep coming .. so hopefully someone enjoys it!
“When Loki escapes his prison on Asgard, he concocts a magical prank that brings chaos onto SHIELD. Clint and Natasha, the two spies, will be unable to see each other’s face because of Loki’s curse: by night, Natasha is transformed into a wolf, while during the day, Clint becomes a hawk. With the help of the Avengers, they must find a way to break Loki’s curse.”
[CHAPTER 1]
Chapter 2
The abandoned warehouse which had been silent for so many months was now alive with gunfire and explosions, Natasha ducked behind a few abandoned cargo boxes as a ball of fire was thrown her way, where Loki had learned to do that she did not want to know, all she knew was that she was going to kick that persons ass for it. The issue was she had no idea if she was actually fighting Loki, the damn copy trick had gotten tedious quickly, cautiously she stepped out from her hiding spot keeping her back pressed against the wall as she followed it along at least Loki could not come up behind her that way. ‘come out, come out where ever you are little spider’ echoed across the walls and Natasha clenched her teeth together, he was trying to spook her and freak her out and yes she had faced worse people than the trickster, but seeing what he had done to Clint after the battle of New York .. she could not deny that she had fears centred around him.
For what felt like the millionth time she pressed the hidden emergency button on the bracelet Tony had given her, all the Avengers had something just in case a situation like this occurred and they needed backup, yes it was possible she was being foolish in expecting an immediate response, but it felt like nothing was happening. “Clint?” Natasha muttered into her earpiece awaiting a response, but all she got back was static and she muttered several Russian curse words as she moved forwards. Where was he? A cold feeling ran up her spine as if something bad was going to happen, but she refused to let that get to her just keep going, what was Loki’s aim in this? He had been awol for months, now just to show up .. not even to hide it, she was very suspicious, it was like before all over again. In Germany Loki had played them, so was he doing it again?
“Damn it Clint respond” Natasha hissed into her ear, turning another corner she continued to creep along quietly in the darkness, looking from side to side for her partner she cursed again. That was when a cry of pain echoed through silent warehouse, taking off at a run Natasha guessed that she could assume Loki was not here if Clint was screaming with pain else where. She was faced with a problem, call out to Clint and locate him which meant giving up her position or stay silent and hope that she could use the element of surprise in her favour. The issue was … Loki could be everywhere at once how did she know she had the surprise element? He could already know she was coming, in fact it was highly likely that was the case.
It seemed Clint was his focus otherwise he would still be on her tail, of course he would go for Clint he had ruined her partners mind on his last visit here and of course if he was going to go after any of the Avengers besides his brother it would be Clint. As she crept around all she could wonder was why had they not waited for back up? Why had they chosen to split up? Had they underestimated Loki? That was very possible .. he had them playing his game and Natasha hated to imagine how that would end for them.
The other question bothering her was that if Clint was down why was Loki not on her case? Why did she feel like this was playing into his hands? Did they even stand a chance or was he playing them? Several corners later she found her partner in a crumpled heap on the floor, stooping next to him Natasha attempted to revive him. “Clint? .. come on Clint wake up” No response, she did not like that, Natasha hit another button on her ear piece putting her through to the SHIELD line, “This is Black Widow requesting immediate back up Hawkeye down, I repeat Hawkeye is down” Natasha explained into her ear, but that cold shiver escaped down her spine again distracting her from the train of thought. Quickly standing she spun around her gun quickly raising so it was level with Loki’s chest whom she was now facing. “Theres not many who can sneak up on me” Her voice was cold and emotionless her gaze focusing on him watching as his lips formed a thin smile recognising her words from when they had first met.
“My my I have missed this, they've had me locked up for awhile, but I always hoped we would meet again” Loki greeted her, Natasha did not like his smile .. it was unnerving as if he knew something that she did not .. and funny enough she did not like that notion too much. “I wish I could say the feeling was mutual” Natasha shot back at him her face not changing. Clint began to stir behind her and she could almost feel his deft movements “tasha” he mumbled reaching out for his bow, but not finding it next to him, his head was a blur and the past few minutes were taking their time to register in his head. “I’m glad I could catch you both together” Loki explained with a smile “You see I have been planning this moment, its been a long time coming, you see I am going to make the two of you pay and I have been planning how I would do this for a very long time, all of the little details, how I could make you suffer and then I remembered a story once told to me” The whole while Loki rambled Natasha kept her weapon fixed on him following his movements and her gaze never leaving his. Next to her Clint was sitting up, but in no position to think about walking, what Loki had done he was not sure .. his leg was in agony whenever he tried to move it, broken? possibly .. but it did not feel broken. It felt childish to suggest it was some magic spell keeping him rooted to this position, at Loki’s mercy .. but the more Clint thought about it the more reasonable the idea felt. “The story is of two lovers, they foolishly underestimate the villain of the story who curses them” Loki turned back to the two of them his smirk still adamant on his lips, “And here was I thinking you weren't the sentimental type” Natasha shot back at him which seemed to have struck a nerve with Loki as she had intended, there was a chuckle from behind her “Had I known this was going to be story time I’d have brought a teddy bear” Clint added encouraging a brief smile from Natasha’s lips, but her focus did not leave Loki.
Loki’s gaze narrowed in anger at the two of them mocking him, they were like the rest of this pathetic race, “You mock me? Last time there were five of you, the odds are no longer in your favour, they will not get here in time by the time they do it will be to late” As Loki raised his palm in their direction Natasha held her ground against him, “We are taking you in Loki whether you like it or n ..” Her voice trailed off as a bright light seemingly erupted from his palm engulfing the two agents, Natasha let two shots loose in Loki’s direction, but it did not stop the light despite the fact that she was sure they had met their mark. Without thinking Natasha held down the trigger as the light surrounded the two of them, she was blinded by the light and all she could hear was Loki’s voice. “Enjoy your final moments together, for you shall never truly see each other again, at the dawn of each day and through out, the hawk shall take a truer form for him, when he is restored to his human self at the end of each day you shall become something more fitting to the darkness inside your heart Widow, you shall never see yourselves as you now are, this curse will separate you forever’ The light grew brighter and consumed the two of them, Natasha reached for Clint but he was no longer next to her, there was just light? She felt alone .. where was she what was happening? In the distance she could hear shouts people, but she was too busy floating far away from them, when had she started floating her feet had firmly been on the ground a minute ago.

Loki’s spell had been interrupted, he had been too focused on the magic and out of nowhere the soldiers shield had caught him in the chest knocking him backwards. “You’re too late, all of you” he snapped as Captain America and the man of iron landed on the ground level not too far away from him. “You can not save your hero’s their fate has been sealed” As the man of Iron lunged at him the apparition of Loki faded away into the darkness, enough of the spell had been cast to take affect of that Loki was sure, now he could sit back and watch. In a dark alley the trickster straightened out dusting off his robes, hesitating he brought his hand back to find warm red liquid on his hands. It seemed at least one of the Widows shots had met its mark.

Clint’s felt like his head had been smashed in, like it was about to explode at any second, opening his eyes everything was blurry .. very blurry he could make out someone in front of him shaking a hand in front of his eyes. Shoving the person back and away from him Clint pulled himself into a sitting position rubbing his eyes, “Where .. wheres Natasha?” Clint mumbled to whoever it was. Opening his eyes again the room was better and more in focus, it was also a lot brighter than the warehouse he remembered. The person who had been waving the hand in front of his face belonged to Tony who was now talking away at him, but Clint could not make out a word he just saw lips moving. “Tony.. tony, shut up” Raising a hand to his ear he checked his hearing aids were in and pressed the button on the side of them, it was possible in whatever happened they had needed a reboot because after a few moments he could hear Tony blabbering about nothing of any importance and nothing he cared about. “Tony .. Tony seriously shut up, what the hell happened? Wheres Natasha?” he questioned looking around the room, this time Tony had listened to him and was standing their shifting his weight from foot to foot nervously. “Um .. about Natasha” Clint’s face fell “Where the hell is she?” If .. if anything had happened to her there was no way Clint was going to forgive himself .. “Tony” Clint warned again reaching for the gun usually strapped to his side knowing that would be best for threatening Tony … only he found nothing but a hospital gown .. right .. he was in a hospital … when had they gone to a hospital?
Tony sighed “Look Clint I dont know how to say this so I just am going to come out with it .. Loki .. I dont know there was some sort of spell going on when I got there and .. well I dont know how .. but Natasha was transformed” Clint froze looking up at Tony, Loki was dead .. the next time he saw him he was dead, “transformed into what?” He questioned eyes glaring at Tony, but Tony said nothing he just indicated to the floor next to Clints bed. Confused clint sat up a little more, there sitting curled up presumably asleep on the floor next to him was a wolf … Natasha was a wolf. Aliens from another world? Asgardian gods from mystery .. now his partner was a wolf .. could this get any weirder?
transformers/avengers with clint and lennox as pals who get completely dumbfucked by the fact that tony stark is a consultant for sector 7 and it pisses them both off. but them also being amazing pals and having each other's backs. (and when clint needs a rest from avengers business and he knows lennox is home again, he just goes to his place to hang out, and when lennox' kid begins to call him 'uncle clint' lennox says to clint that it's okay because he kinda is)
Yes please.
With Lennox constantly having to tell Clint that his child isn't allowed to handle a bow and arrow until he's at least eleven.
And Lennox being the only military person Clint trusts with coming to help with Avengers stuff when they need it.
