Summary
Seventy-two seconds.
For all the radars and satellites and early warning systems, the Earth had seventy-two seconds between the appearance of the alien ships and the first bomb that hit the ground. Barely over a minute, just enough time to wonder if it was real or reach for the phone. Simultaneously, the sky above eighty-one metropolitan areas brightened and a whistling sound was heard followed by a thump-whoosh-rattle as the device passed through the atmosphere. For most, the shattering of glass and rending of metal was their first indication something was wrong and, by then, it was too late. The dark cylinders slammed into buildings, fell on roads, and smashed onto houses with concussive force, blowing out windows and sending a shock wave hurtling outward.
An alien invasion/post-apocalyptic/end-of-the-world big AU with three pairings: Clint/Coulson, Tony/Bucky, and Natasha/Pepper. The story is told through Clint & Phil's POV but all three pairs have a story arc.
