Issue #1 – Break In
It was a clear night as the regular guard duty was patrolling the castle shaped mansion; the star and shining jewel property of Baron Zemo. 2 days ago a radioactive warhead, that was supposed to be locked away by Nick Fury himself, was stolen by Hydra. And if it isn't shut down, the number of casualties. SHIELD sent out in one of their best agents to stop the bomb and arrest Zemo. A quinjet was getting inbound, keeping low the clouds. The agent was positioned at the back standing ready to skydive out. Her name is Bobbi Morse, or as others knew her, the Mockingbird.
"Agent Morse are you ready to drop?" Nick Fury asked into Mockingbird into her communications systems.
"Ready" she replied getting ready, readjusting her parachute.
"Alright give them hell" Fury replied giving the pilot the all-clear.
As the docking door of the hellicarrier of the jet opened, taking a look, Bobbi could see the mansion coming into her line of vision. Once she was close enough, Agent Morse jumped out. Free falling to through the air Bobbi looked at the target below. Raising her arms, the Mockingbird spread the wings out from her uniform and maneuvered herself around to stay out of the lights. Seeing an opportunity she moved herself away from the designated landing point.
"Agent Morse you are off course. You are in for a crash landing" the pilot informed her.
"Relax, I got this" Bobbi replied getting closer. Turning herself into positioned she could see two guards in her line of landing. As he impacted the ground she kicked the guards down, rendering them unconscious. Getting back up to her feet she removed her helmet Bobbi pulled back her hair.
"This is Mockingbird" she said speaking to her communicator "I'm in".
"Agent Morse we have visual of your position" the pilot informed Morse "the weapon has been located in the central area of the building, you cannot let Zemo activate it."
"Yeah I think I could have put that together" Mockingbird commented getting behind cover to avoid the guards see her. "Take out all the guards; stop the bomb, getting it out alive." She then asked"any word on Hunter's position?" taking out her staves from behind her back.
"He's inbound of 30 miles" the pilot replied.
"Dammit, I told him to just go with me" she muttered to herself. Bobbi then said back into her communicator and informed the pilot and Fury "alright, I'm gonna take care of these bozos out here. Tell Hunter to hurry his ass up."
Going out from behind cover, Mockingbird stealth her way up behind two of the guards that passed by her. She slide swept the left guard and she knocked the right guard out. Once the left guard was down she electrocuted her stave. Running around Bobbi made her way past the others. Once she was at the exit there should have been one guard left. He was still there, as he attacked her from behind knocking her down carrying a hammer. As Mockingbird was down the large guard went for another strike to finish Bobbi off. She could see the reflection of the guard on the ground, regaining her composure. Rolling out of the way grabbing her staves, Bobbi turned back to face the guard. The Mockingbird waited for waited for the guard to strike as she swinged his hammer. As Mockingbird used her staves to defend herself she swung back, after multiple swings at each other Bobbi was able to land a hit on his face. She didn't leave the guard a chance to get back up as she kicked him in the face. The guard used his hand to knock Bobbi down. Before Bobbi took another hit she moved out of the way again. Looking around, he could see Mockingbird was no longer insight. Turning Bobbi kept hiding waiting for the right chance to strike
Jumping up to the guards back, she put her arms around him in a choke hold. He tried to shake and knock Bobbi off as he moved around and knocked his back against the wall; only making Bobbi feel the impact. Taking the hit Bobbi tried to keep her grip as the choke hold was working, the guard was going down. As the guard finally fell unconscious Bobbi let go and backed up regaining her focus and letting out a breath.
Hearing the sound of a gun being loaded behind her, Bobbi turned her eyes to see who it was. She could recognize the man aiming her gun at her as she put her staves away and stood back up, relaxing her shoulders. "You're late" she said turning around to face him.
"Sorry about that love, he answered with a smirk "wasn't keen on the whole jumping out of a plane thing so I took the long way." His name was Lance Hunter. Ex-mercenary, agent of SHIELD or as Bobbi calls him, sidekick.
