A Statue Strong Enough for Two
Title A Statue Strong Enough for Two
Wordcount: ~39,000
Summary: Elena is a street-level superhero--she's never been one of the ones who wanted glory. Now, though, a visit from an old enemy forces her to step up and see what she might have to do with the Sidhe who invaded and were sent away twenty years ago. Luckily, she has fellow superheroes, especially the Huntress, to back her up, and a new girlfriend in her regular life to make things feel more normal. (Though nothing, of course, can ever be normal when you've got a secret identity.)
Warnings: this being a superhero story, there is some violence and minor character death, including one brief scene where a character deliberately injures herself in the course of fighting evil, and another where two characters who are friendly spar and come out with some bruises. None of the above is very explicit, but do be warned that it is present.
A/N: Written for this prompt on the meme. The title is from Ian Axel's "This is the New Year."
Disclaimer: I do not own Merlin.
Because of the length, I'm not reposting the full text here, so you can find it all on the AO3, right here.
