Ara Brookes might of been only 18, but she had gone through more then most people had. She was a part of Project Elemental one of 21 kids. There was Coal Ashwood fire, Wendy Cloud air, Terron Stone earth, Corrine Clocksworth time, Psyrene Mindlock psychic, Siren Burst sound, Bolt Stormholt electricity, Ivy Williows nature, Granite Steel metal, Galacia Frost ice, Sunny Lightwood light, Pitch Black darkness, Aura Empant empathy, Coan Bond bonding, Astrea Galaxy magic, Aadaya Powers stregnth/energy, Storm Weatherton weather, Adonis Poiser poison, Matty Miner minerals, Galon Wave vibrations, and Theoi Tempest tempeture. All of them were born and raised by Hydra their names hinting their powers. Adonis is a poisonus flower, Storm was obivous, and Galacia was like glaciers. The first 10 years of their life had been great as Corrine was allowed to teach them giving the usefull advice to help them control their powers. One being to use your memories of your most loved ones to control them. Corrine for an example used her siblings Sharon and Zane. Ara always used her memories of Coal and perhaps that was why she was free for as soon as she realized how much Coal changed she didn't want to listen to Hydra or Psyrene. Corrine had apparently predicted this and was there mentally to aid in her escape. You see Corrine wasn't really a part of Project Elemental orignally. She was part of the super soilder project, but it did more then what they had expected giving her mental powers as well which allowed her to resist their mind control. The only reason she became a part of project elemental was so they could have teacher for Corrine was roughly 100 years old and could control her powers amazingly. Ara sighed as she wished for the thousandth time she looked normal. Her bright blue hair probably wouldn't be as bad had it not been for the black cat suit she was forced to wear in Hydra. She forced herself to focus as she arrived at Avengers tower. She might not of been allowed out of Hydra, but Corrine had educated them well before she was put back into torture two years ago. She walked in and a orange haired lady greeted her. " Shield agent?" she asked and Ara was glad the only symbol on her outfit was the teardrop on her shoulder.
"Yes I am and I need to warn the Avengers about something having to do with Hydra." Ara lied having perfected that skill ages ago. " Hydra fell years ago." She said confused. " Trust me their back and I really need to do this." Ara begged and the woman sighed. " Fine, but I need a name." she said and Ara smiled knowing Stark wouldn't be able to find information on her. " Agent Ara Brookes." She stated and the woman allowed her through and she went in the elevator. " Do you want me to tell the Avengers you are coming Miss Brookes?" Jarvis's voice asked from above. " Yes Thank you." she replied and when the elevator arrived she was immeditley greeted by Agent Romanova, Agent Barton, Steve Rogers, and Tony Stark. " Who are you, because you're definitley not shield." Barton demanded.
" I'm one of Hydra's rogue expiraments that want to save my friends that are being forced to serve Hydra." Ara said truthfully and they all looked at her skeptically. " How can we trust you when you techically don't exist?" Stark demanded. " I was born and raised in Hydra Stark. I was made a weapon along with 20 other people and they called us Project Elemental." Ara explained. " How come we've never heard of this "Project Elemental". " Romanova asked. " They kept it very well hidden and we were the back up plan if Hydra ever fell. 19 kids who would follow their psychic's command and one who wasn't able to do anything because they tortured her so much she couldn't leave. Though it backfired since they didn't expect Corrine to teach us how to center ourselves around people." Ara shrugged. " Corrine?" Steve questioned. " Corrine Marina Jackson/Clocksworth. She was the first person ever to go through the super soilder serum, but it backfired on them giving her psychic abillities and allowed her to see their true intents. That was when she tried to fight them off, but she was too weak from their drugs." Ara said sadly. " I knew her and her sister Sharon." Steve stated. " She's around your age, but never mind that I need your help or I want to at least warn you of how deep Hydra is in Shield." Ara told them and with that she told them everything. When she finished they all looked at her with shock. " Sitwell is so high up though and Garret was one of Coulson's best friends." Barton said his eyes held disbelief in them. " It's the truth and pretty soon they will attack. Shield will stand no chance against them. I have to go before Hydra catches up with me for they are definitely looking for me." Ara told them worry filling her mind. " You could stay with us for we could use your help since you know them." Stark offered.
" I don't want to hurt them, Their my friends and they have no control over their actions. I can't do it. Besides one is my boyfriend I honestly might just hurt you more with my only stregnth is against him and my weakness is Bolt who will have no problem hurting me." Ara argued. " We aren't planning on hurting them after all I was controlled by Loki I know what it's like to not have control, but we would still like you're help considering you know where to find them." Barton offered. " Alright I'll do it." Ara gave in with a small smile. " You need a code name." Tony said. " I'll be Aquarius." Ara said and they all nodded. " Welcome to the Avengers Aquarius." Rogers told her and Ara smiled she was finally getting her family back.
