This is the beginning of a spark. My first post in the Codyverse. Hope you like it!
"Who are you?"
"Why the hell would you care?"
"I asked a question, son. You better answer it now."
"Fine."
Alex stared for a short time at the interrogator. He was pretty tall. Shorter than his dad but still pretty tall. He spoke in a thick Boston accent. He had no hair and dark skin. He couldn't see his eyes behind his shades and he was pissed.
"My name is Alex Rogers. That's 亚历克斯 罗杰斯 in Chinese, Алекс Роджерс in Russian, אלכס רוג'רס in Hebrew-"
"That's enough. Next question. What did you do with the bomb?"
That's a hard one…
"Simply put, I was defusing it."
"Hah!" He barked, "So you're telling me, that you; a twelve year old-"
"I'm fifteen"
"-kid just waltzes into a top secret government building and goes and defuses a bomb?"
"Yes sir"
He raises his eyebrows in speculation and slowly grins.
"Fury's going to make a fine one of you yet, asshole."
Alex shrugged.
"Next question! Who was that girl you were with?"
Sorry Alta…
Three days earlier.
Alta walked out of art class talking with her friend Bonnie.
"So I was like you don't tell me what to do! And he was just girl you live here!"
"Damn girl"
"And then he…"
Bonnie trailed off.
"Hey. What's wrong?"
"There's a strange boy at your locker!"
"Tell me what he looks like."
"He's blonde, blue eyes, his hair is messy and speckled with dirt, he's wearing khakis and a green t-shirt and dark blue running shoes. Oh, and his shirt is sort of ripped, he's wearing a black lightweight backpack and he's Caucasian like you."
"What's he doing?"
"He looks to be looking for you."
"I'm going to go try and talk to him."
"No. I'll go first."
"Alright, fine"
Bonnie walked down the hallway and flirted a bit with the boy, as Alta watched. She glanced down the hall at Alta a couple of times. The boy looked down the hall and then suddenly looked Alta in the eye for a second. She gasped and went back behind the corner.
His eyes. They're like uncle Steve's. It's uncanny. I wonder if they were related?
She suddenly cursed and remembered what was going on. She subconsciously started to walk down the hall towards him. She looked at Bonnie with a reassuring look and Bonnie nodded and left. She walked in front of the boy.
"Who are you?" She asked.
"My name is Alexander Paxton Rogers"
She looks at him in shock.
"Who's your dad?"
"Steven Rogers. But who are you?"
"You mean Steve Rogers? Captain America?!"
"No. Well, yes. It's complicated."
"How?"
"I'm sort of a...clone? Evil twin? Brother? Delayed twin? Son of the Captian America?"
"So…"
"So I'm related to him, yes. But he doesn't know it."
"Excuse me?"
"Never mind"
"So…why are you here? What are you doing at my locker? What should I call you? Do you know me? What the hell is going on?!"
"I'm at your locker because a little birdie told me that you were going to be...assassinated."
Alta stared at him.
"You think I'm joking."
"Yeah…"
Assassinated! What the honest hell?!
"Well...you see…"
A shot rang out as someone screamed.
Alta froze.
"Crap crap crap. We need to get out of here."
He grabbed Atla by the arm and pulled her into a classroom.
"Hey. What room is this?"
She stared at him.
"What is this classroom?"
"This is the gym."
"Where's the equipment?"
She pointed to a shed outside.
They sprinted outside and dove into the shed. Alex pulled out a red flashlight and turned on a red light. He shone the flashlight over the equipment, looking for a weapon.
"Weapon."
"Why do you need a weapon?"
To fight that person out there! Or thing…"
"THING?!"
"Yeah…"
Alta handed him a hockey stick.
"Thanks."
Alex slowly pushed open the door and peeked outside. He saw a man with black hair and a black uniform with a symbol on it. He realized that it was a skull and crossbones. He quickly ducked back inside.
"Dammit."
"What?"
"I didn't realize they'd be crazy enough to send him."
"Who?"
"Brock Rumlow. He used to be a member of Dad's S.T.R.I.K.E. team, till he was revealed as a HYDRA operative, but then he was hired by the US government as Crossbones."
"So he's a bad guy?"
"Yes."
"And you're being hunted by the US government?"
"Um...yeah."
Alta sighed. They sat in silence for a second. Suddenly there was a knock at the shed door.
