Prologue
As she continued to beat the punching bag to a pulp, Sarah Anastasia Chandler couldn't help, but think of everything that has happened to her in the past years of her childhood. She was dying of a sickness that couldn't be cured at the age of three, being injected with a serum that could keep her alive, four years later she starts to discover she can hear people's thoughts and emotions at the age of seven, she can levitate objects with her hands and mind, three years later she finds out she is a telepath and has telekinesis at the age of ten. As the flashbacks of her past keep flooding her mind and as she keeps punching the bag rapidly, the flashbacks keeps coming back to where she was bullied in middles school to her first year of high school to where she lost control of her powers. Her last punch knocked off the punching bag off of its chains and into the wall. The flashbacks stopped all together and she breathes heavily. She stares at the cracked wall for a long moment and sighs heavily. She slowly walks back to the bench, grabs a quick drink of her water and puts another punching bag on chain. She began to punch the bag again until she was interrupted by strong voice.
"Sarah Anastasia Chandler." She stopped punching the bag looked over towards the entrance of the gym. She saw a dark brown skin man that could be in his late 40s, he was bald, dressed in black with a black trench coat and a black eye patch over one of his eye. She looked at him weirdly; she doesn't like strangers that know her name. Even though she new in New York City, has her own apartment and she's only eighteen. She hasn't even started school yet and is now a senior. She looked at him once more and went back to punching the bag.
"Who wants to know?" She continued to punch the bag harder. She heard footsteps slowly coming towards her.
"I hear you've been living on your own. You left your friends and family behind because of what you did and because of your powers." She stopped mid way of punching the bag again; she looked up at the guy with the eye patch and gave him a glare.
"How do you know about my powers?"
"We received news about a young girl in her teens with supernatural powers that went on a rampage and ended up destroying half of the school yard. Fifty students had minor injuries, ten students with major injuries and five students died. We had one of our own follow you from a distance. We also took over the scene at the school and took care of everything."
"Why?"
"Because there are horrible people out there who want your powers for experiments or world domination. We understand that you captured a year ago from a terrorist group called HYDRA." She went stiff when she heard the name HYDRA, the people who were tracking her down and captured her to get what they want which was her powers and the serum that was keeping her alive now. Yes, it has enhanced her strength, hearing, seeing, speed and also her immune system and everything else. However, it doesn't explain how she got her powers or why they came all of a sudden. She stared at him with a stern look.
"You're from HYDRA."
"No, I am not."
"How do I know your telling the truth?"
"You tell me. You can access my mind with your telepathy, but you can feel my emotions as well. Do you think I'm from HYDRA?" It took Sarah a minute to answer his question. She knows he's not from Hydra and she knows that he's not the bad guy. She didn't have to go through his mind, she saw it already.
"No, you're not from Hydra." He gave a small smile at her, his hands were behind his back, but there was no kind of weapon in his hands. Only a file. "Who are you?"
"My name is Nick Fury, I'm the director of SHIELD."
"SHIELD?"
"Strategic Homeland Intervention, Enforcement and Logistic Division."
"Whoa, that's a mouth full, stick with SHIELD."
"I plan too."
"What do you want Director Fury?"
"I'm here to recruit you to be a part of something extraordinary."
"And what's that?" He handed me a file that looked top secret only for his eyes only and this one looked personal because the file had my name on it. I opened it and it had my picture and my information along with my abilities, medical reports, personal information and everything else. In the middle of the report it was stamped saying 'APPROVED". I looked back at him with confusion.
"What am I approved for?"
"You are approved to be a part of the Avengers Initiative."
