Fury was in the middle of a meeting with the avengers when one of his agents came in. "Sir we have a problem."
"What is it I'm in a meeting."
"It's hill."
"She's in a mission."
"Exactly sir." Fury got up and ran to the briefing room. Many people were frozen watching the scene play above. The avengers followed Fury. He ran to the coms.
"Hill get out of there NOW!" Fury commanded.
"Sorry can't do that fury."
"Are u disobeying a direct order."
"Not the first time. To many people will die I can't just save myself."
"Hill." All Fury heard next was a bomb go off. The coms broke up. "HILL!" Fury screamed in to the com but got no response. He slammed the com on to the table and walked to his office. The avengers just watched.
"Hill never disobeys a direct order." Clint said.
"Is she alive?" Cap questioned.
*********************************hill woke up with a throbbing headache and dried blood on her face. Some covering her suit. She was shot in the leg. Blood coating her uniform. It was sappy. Her vision was blurry but she could make out the shape of
a
tall musclier form. She stares at him. He walks towards her slowly creepily. She doesn't flinch or even blink when he touches her face and then grabs it in his calloused hands. Roughly her face jolts upward. He leans close and she can smell the alcohol
/leaking off of him. She squints her face in disgust as he whispers in her face. His breath wanting to make her vomit. "Everyone has a breaking point I can't wait to find yours deputy director." With that he walks out. Several minutes later he comes
/back in but it felt like hours. She tried to fight against her binds but it only made them tighter. He put her in the middle of the room in darkness and strapped to a chair to generate fear but she isn't scared. Her dad was abusive.
Flashback
Her mom died giving birth to her as a result her dad was angry and she understood she killed the love of his life so she deserved it that's why she stood still as he slowly and painfully beat her. Broken beer bottles surroundinghere. She was 8 and she isn't scared of what's about to happen. First he slaps her roughly on the cheek but soon he gets glass from the broken bottles and cuts her everywhere that won't kill her by will hurt her. She knows the drill. It all started on her 7th birthday when her dad just exploded. She stood still no tears as he cut her open and blood seeped out of her wounds.
She was brought back to reality by a punch to the jaw. Her face flung to the left. She just looked ahead no fear no tears. She was used to it. It didn't bother her what would make even the strongest of men and women scream did nothing to her not even a wince. "I
/don't want shield information but my boss does I just want to break you. But if you want to give up and go home unharmed tell us everything you know."
"You want to know what I know come here." He leaned in. "Your going to hell. I'm never going to give anything away do what you want. Anything you want. It's been done to me before."
"I like you to bad your going to have a long painful death but I'm not going to kill you I'll get you to the brink of death and then you'll kill yourself." She just looked ahead. "Do it." She said in a daring time and then that's when the knife
slowly started to trace her stomach then slowly went into her skin and slowly out. She barely winced. It's been done before she just stared ahead.
2hours later she was coated in blood. All she saw was red but we was smart she wouldn't die. She knew that but ot felt like she was her whole body was on fire but she showed no emotion this was nothing. A large puddle of blood kept getting bigger
underneath her. She stared him in the eye and then spit in his face. He just punched her and left the room. Waiting for tomorrow for more "torture."
************************************************Fury slammed his hands on his desk even his best agents couldn't find hill and it's been a day. They searched the wreckage and all they found was a lot of blood. The scientist ran test after test and
it
was indeed hills. His right hand women the women he thought of as a daughter. The avengers are helping with the search which he's glad for even though they didn't know hill. Well know her well. But he'd keep searching.
************************************************he didn't know her well but cap felt bad for the women. He liked her. He thought she was beautiful when she smiled even though she barely ever does. He really likes her. He could make a long list of reasons
why and he has. Peggy told him to move on and he thinks this might be his chance if they can get her alive. That's why he hasn't stopped pacing and watching the video tape replay. By now it's memorized in his brain. He needs to find her.
************************************************tony at first didn't like agent hill because she seemed cold heartless. The ice queen. He didn't think she thought for herself just did what Fury said. But today he learned that she doesn't listen to him.
She's one of the very few to be braveenough to question or disobey fury. She doesn't just think about herself she thinks about the civilians and she may be dead or being tortured because she tried to help them. That's why he hasn't taken his
eyes off of his computer for four hours. He won't stop looking for her.
************************************************bruce knew hill. Not very well but he knew her. When he was sitting in his lab drinking tea after the battle she came in. Grabbed a cup of tea and sat next to him. The were contempt in the silence for awhile
before he broke it. "How do you do it?" He asked.
"What do you mean?"
"I hold on the hulk all my anger in like a volcano ready to explode but you, you have some of the worlds biggest and darkest secrets on your shoulders. You hold it together showing no sign of weakness or fear. Nothing fazes you even when the worlds about
to end and you basically run shield."
"I was like that when I was little held everything in held the weight of the worldmy shoulders. Then I went into the military and it didn't help with that but it made me stronger even though I couldn't get much stronger."
"What do you mean couldn't get much stronger?"
"We'll look at the time I have to go. Good bye dr. Banner."
"Call me Bruce." But she already raced out of the room. The doctor was shocked. That's why Bruce keeps running tests on the blood every time still hopeful it's not hers wven though he's done it millions of times and nothing's changed.
Natasha kind of knew hill she was friends with Clint so she was always around. She seemed so cold and heartless more then herself. So she distanced herself from hill even though Clint said they'd become best friends but Clint said a lot of things. She
especially didn't like her when could only died and she acted like it was nothing it was until she saw her in fury a office balling her eyes out and saying she couldn't do it anymore now that her best friend is dead. She started to appreciate her
more and earlier when she stood up to fury. That's why she hasn't stopped reading the mission briefing file.
************************************************clint was one of Maria's best friends he knew the cold hearted professionalMaria but he also knew the determined warm kind laughable lovable Maria. He knew he had to call Melinda she and Maria had
gotten closer since Phil died.
"Hey Mel it's Maria."
"Who? What? Where? When? How?"
"Just come to the shield base in New York I'll tell you everything once your here don't worry." With that she hung up and started racing to the base. Maris was important to him he couldn't lose her that's why he was at the firing range releasing all his
rage by shooting arrow after arrow at the dummy all hitting places where it would die immediately if it were real. He couldn't lose her. She was one of his best friends. ************************************************mel hadraced to the shield
base upon hearing the recasting news. Tears brimmed in her eyes she couldn't lose another friend. She's already broken but if she lost Maria she would shatter into dust and blow away in the wind forever never to be found. No purpose. As soon as she
got there she asked to see fury she had to fight several agents who are now in shields medical to get to furys office. Fury shot up from sulking when the door opened he relaxed knowing she would come. Before she asked he answered her questions. "This
morning she was on a mission it went south and she being Maria was to stubborn to leave them in there so she reduced them but then the bomb blew up. We found her blood in the ruble but not her body. No indication of her being there but the blood and
the civilians who said an angel came to save them. We haven't been able to find her are best agents are on it. We have no idea who it is."His eyes brimmed tears.
"Your best agents are on it but all they have found is her blood nothing else and it was in the ruble. R they even trying? I need to find her we have to find her. There not your best agents of they haven't found anything where is she fury?" Melinda started
to cry. One of the rare times she showed emotion. She hadn't cried like this until Phil died and then was brought back to life and now on a plane with her. She told him but he wouldn't be able to go because of the avengers. She felt bad but one of
them had to be here. Her maria and Phil talked almost everyday but this week they were to busy. She cursed herself. Why?
