Chapter 10: The Avengers and The Film

Less than two days later, Harry received a message from Tony, it wasn't all to unusual, he had asked Harry to come to the newly built Stark Tower. Well, he hadn't asked for Harry.

He had asked for The Mage.

Deciding to humour the man, Harry allowed The Mage to take felt the magic pour into his blogs, his heart, his soul. His muscles bulged, enhanced to the maxim human potential. A dark cloud came over his mind and Harry felt his inhibitions and basic morals lower.

The Mage had taken control.

To an outside observer however, the only indication that he had changed was his eyes, the once black pupils were replaced by a dull golden light.

He apparated to Stark Tower.

Arriving in Stark's office he noticed both Pepper and the man from several months ago. He had appeared directly behind the man, and urged Tony and Pepper to remain quite about his appearance, he sensed he could have some fun with this man.

From the look in Tony's eyes he could tell the billionaire was enjoying it almost as much as he was. Pepper seemed to disapprove, but remained quite none the less.

'Mr. Stark, when is he getting here, I really don't have time for this'

Deciding to have his own fun, Tony spoke 'Why Coulson, he's right behind you' turning, Coulson found nothing but air.

'Mr. Stark, please don't HOLY FUCK!' he screamed, he had turned to face Stark only to come face to face with the hooded form of The Mage, even at this distance he couldn't see anything other than his mouth and two glowing golden orbs.

'Agent Coulson I presume' spoke The Mage, extending a hand for the impeccably dressed man to shake. The Mage did however have to hand it to the man, after his initial shock he had returned to his cool and calm demeanour and shock The Mage's hand thoroughly.

'Thank you for joining us Mage, I must admit to be unsure as to wether you would after your last encounter with shield.' rattled off Coulton

'I haven't agreed to anything yet' The Mage growled back

'Now, what is this about?' asked Tony

'The Avengers Initiative' answered Coulson.

'I though I didn't qualify' returned Stark 'What was it, oh yeah, apparently I'm self obsessed, volatile and don't play well with others'

'Tell us something we don't know Stark' said The Mage, before adding 'although, thinking about it, I'm most of those things. Did I qualify?'

'That is not the matter at hand gentlemen' spoke Agent Coulson.

'He did, didn't he!' said Tony in a very childish tone

'Suck it up Stark, I'm obviously more likeable'

'Yeah, to Natasha maybe'

'I hope so'

'Gentlemen please, look at these files, they'll tell you everything you need to know'

'No' cut in The Mage

'What?' asked Coulson

'Noooooo. Nada. Not doing it. Fucking no! I don't want to be part of your little team, I don't have time for all your SHIELD crap. End of the world this grab the Tesseract that!' ranted The Mage

To further enforce his point, he disappeared from the room, apparating back to his apartment.

'And I don't play well with others' grumbled Tony.

HP & Avengers - HP & Avenger -

Less than a day passed before Harry was contacted again about joining the Avengers.

Having finished the days work at the cafe and closing up for the evening, he headed upstairs to his flat for a good long shower and a movie marathon.

Coming out of his long shower, Harry felt more relaxed than he had in days, it was as if the warm liquid had washed away his stress and he felt prepared for anything.

'You sing in the shower, do you know that?' the sudden intrusion of the woman's voice ripped Harry from his thoughts and gave him one hell of a shock. Instincts kicking in, he transformed into The Mage, golden greens eyes observing the apartment.

'Shit, Red'

Okay, so almost anything.

Allowing The Mage form the recede, Harry took back control. Sensing Natasha had no ill intentions towards him, he carried on a usual.

'Yes, I did know I sign in the shower, but that's beside the point Natasha, what are you doing here?'

Ignoring his question, she asked her own, 'Arn't you going to put some cloths on?'

'I didn't have any plans to, and since you are an uninvited, if not welcome guest, you don't get to make demands'

'Whatever, I've seen better anyway' she casually replied, ever the professional as she was, she truly didn't seem bother by the fact he was wearing just a towel.

'Yes well, we can all be Olympic class athletes trained by a worldwide peace keeping organisation can we'

'I heard you declined the avengers.' she stated.

'Yes' he replied, sitting down into his settee and flicking the TV on with the remote. Sitting next to him, Natasha continued.

'Why, Tony's agreed. Plus I've got Dr. Banner and Captain America but we could use you. Loki's power is magic and you are the resident expert on magic'

'I don't like being used Natasha'

'SHIELD won't be using you! We're merely gathering the team'

'Of course you would say that if you knew it would get me to join.' flicking the Movie on, Harry settled into his settee and briefly became The Mage to conjure some popcorn. Next to him, Natasha did the same, except for the turning into a powerful wizard and using world changing power to summon popcorn.

'What we watching?' she asked

'Don't you have to get back to Fury?'

'Nah, I've got time' she replied, her voice calm and casual.

'I'll think about it' he said

'That's all I'm asking for' answered Natasha, knowing instantly what he was talking about. 'Now shut up, the films starting'

So that was how Harry Potter came to watch a movie, practically naked, with the Black Widow.

HP & Avengers - HP & Avengers -

The next day The Mage geared up for his trip with Tony to Germany where the other avengers were heading, because he had never been there he was forced to fly. Over his head he placed his magical hood, charmed to never fall and be completely see through for him, whilst shadowing his entire face to anyone looking. His black cloak fluttered down his back like a cape, billowing in a non existent breeze, a trick he had learnt from the late professor Snape.

Apparating over to Stark Tower, The Mage found Tony already suited up, his red and gold armour making for an imposing site.

'Ready?' asked Stark.

Cocooning himself in the shield necessary for Mach speed flight, he gave a solid yes to Tony.

Both heroes leapt of the edge of Stark Tower and blasted high into the sky, The Mage had no idea the flight would take, although it wouldn't be long at this speed.
