Summary
'Agents Emily Prentiss and Spencer Reid are the latest victims in a long line of what authorities are only now admitting could be serial abductions ranging back over a decade. Dubbing the abductor 'The Ghost', the only thing authorities seem to be able to agree on is this: no victims have yet been recovered.'
For Aaron Hotchner, it was his worst fear come to life. Forced to work alongside Jason Gideon and the human members of the elite BAU, Aaron and what remained of his pack found themselves fighting against everything they'd ever stood for in order to bring their people home.
For the missing agents, it was life shattering. Trapped almost four thousand miles away and forced into betrayal by their captors, a desperate flight into a deadly blizzard made them realize how precarious their grip on survival truly was. But that didn't matter. There was no giving up.
It wasn't only their survival they were fighting for.

Bergen
3allTony’s eye is drawn to one candidate in particular. A kid wearing a suit he looks so uncomfortable in that it’s shooting straight past comical to just heartbreakingly endearing. Chewing on the nail of his thumb, his knee bobbing up and down. Drops his pen, and then drops his clipboard when he bends down to pick up the pen.
“Call him in first.”

Or: Pepper is interviewing potential new interns, each one looking more nervous than the last. Including one pale but determined kid named Peter Parker. What he has to say is not at all what Tony had expected.
Spoiler alert: the kid doesn’t get the job. -

Summary
When their attempts to recreate the super soldier serum failed, Hydra started trying to breed Captain America clones from his genetic samples. Unfortunately, the serum's effects aren't passed down genetically, so instead of an army of tiny Captain Americas, they get a bunch of tow-headed, asthmatic, allergic, immuno-compromised little Steves.
And then the Winter Soldier stumbles across Hydra's failed experiment...

Under the Songbird’s Wing by mia6363
Brilliant!
Deeply empathic and at times heartbreaking.
Writing so nuanced the characters evolve right off the page.
So far beyond most fics it's in a league of it's own.
If there's justice author is busily writing original fiction soon to be award winning. -

Summary
Five years ago, Thor's Chitauri army decimated the Earth. Now what's left of humanity lives in bases under the Earth's surface, safe from the toxic atmosphere. Tony likes to think that humanity's adapted pretty well. After all, they have movie nights and dances; they're doing better than could be expected. But when he learns that the little world of safety and stability they've carved out is about to be slowly but surely destroyed, the New York Underground is left with only two options--fight or flight. Tony knows which one he wants. If only Steve weren't on the exact opposite side. Meanwhile, Natasha wants whatever option will save Clint, Pepper wants whatever option will save the base, Maria Hill wants whatever option will save everybody, and nobody's exactly sure who Loki's trying to save, but everyone's hoping it's more than just himself.

Underground by Margo_Kim
“The winner with fifty-one percent of the vote—” Hill took a breath that seemed to last ten minutes. “Plan B. The mission to destroy the Tesseract.”
It was like Tony heard her from a great distance. As if he had already been in Asgard, and she was pulling him back. Pulling him to his death because, whatever the outcome of the battle, that would be the effect. This Tony would die. Maybe that Tony would live.
Okay, Tony thought as he remembered how to breathe. That was okay. He’d tried to die for worse causes. I’m okay. I’m okay. I’m okay.
“Control had prepared plans to deal with those who chose evacuation,” Hill said, and Tony had almost forgotten about her in the infinity, the second, since she had last spoken. “Those plans will not be necessary. The remaining votes were unanimous. You said that you would fight, though you would prefer not to.” This time when she paused, it was not just Tony’s mind that made the silence stretch.
“As per Captain Rogers and Agent Romanov’s prepared battle plans,” Hill finally said, “we will redirect every aspect of the Underground into preparing for this fight. We won’t keep any gas in the tank. There is no point in that. And we won’t waste time. Every day we prepare, we risk losing our fighting and work force to infection. We go to war in five days time. For better or for worse.”
Steve put his hand on Tony’s leg and squeezed, as if he needed to remember where he was.
“On behalf of Control, I thank you for your generous courage.” Hill said it almost gently. Tony hasn’t known she could do that. “The people you have loved and lost—they are proud of you. Whether or not you save them. If your courage ever fails, remember them. ”
Tony loved them all. God help Tony, he loved every idiot in this place and what they did when they all got together. And they loved him, and they loved each other, and it was strange, really, but Tony had never liked so many people before in his entire life. That was why they were all fighting, after all, even those who had no grander hopes than taking down the Chitauri with them. You didn’t leave your family to die alone. The very least, you died with them and you killed their murderers as you did.
