Chapter 3

As the team was going over the map and strategies the archer had memorized the map and headed out on his own unnoticed. He and the Widow were two of the best when it came to going unseen. He made his way through the forest. He traveled nearly a day it seemed before he reached the walls. In this time he came across several groups of guards and still passed unnoticed by all but 3 which he had no choice but to shoot each with sleeping darts. A wiser choice would be to assassinate them so that they do not later wake up at an inconvenient time and cause trouble for them but the truth was since the Loki attack Clint couldn't find it in him to take a man's life, he wasn't even sure he would be able to take a life for his widow which he cherished more than life its self.

Once at the wall he climbed up the tree right outside the wall getting a better view of the inner court. He looked around seeing the red and green zones. The Archer then took a few steps back then took off running across the branch and jumped flying downward nearly 7 feet latching onto the edge of the wall nearly missing it. He held on tight to the lip of the wall with his finger tips and through no small effort pulled himself up and over the top of the 20 foot tall stone wall falling onto the walkway rolled then stood in a crouched position. He then stayed low looking around to make sure he was unseen. Surprisingly for such a large fortress it was not very well guarded on the walls or inside them from what he could tell. He saw about five guards on the wall itself, then within the wall only half dozen. That may seem like a lot some but not for a highly skilled assassin such as his self. It made him nervous; this was almost too easy he though as he made his way across the north side of the wall then he found a stair case, entering the staircase Clint kept close to the inner wall so if anyone was to come up the stairs he could take them by surprise. Working his way down to ground level. The assassin snuck from one area of the courtyard to the next passing by each guard unnoticed until he crossed the courtyard and made it to the doors that he believed led inside to where Natasha and Captain may be. Even though the very thought Steve and Natasha on a mission alone together made his blood boil and even though he would not admit it he was jealous, of the American hero he knew he needed to save him too, the captain was a part of the avengers. But even with that said no matter what his Widow came first. A couple of guards were out front of the doors. Clint came up behind one guard, a slightly chubby man that was missing one finger hitting him in the back of the head with his 9MM knocking him out. Once the guard was out cold he drug him behind some metal boxes that he wasn't sure what was, took his access key and carefully made his way to the door and looked of both shoulders before swiping the card sliding inside silently closing the door behind him he made his way down the hall.

The archer managed to pass by everyone unseen but when he noticed that the guards were increasing in numbers as he went deeper inside he decided to take the less busy route and opened up an air duct climbing inside the closed it behind him. The archer crawled through air ducts without making it sound. He came to several different rooms looking inside most of them just take guards one of them was a locker room after traveling deep within the building he finally came to a duct opening that had some promise. He heard to guards speaking under it

"Yeah she is a vicious thing, I heard that she blacked Zeek's eye, Brooke Bradley's arm and nearly neutered Dennis." One guard said

then the other responded "yeah I heard she's pretty tough, but that spirit will be broken before long, I heard that they were going to send in Zekro."

The first guard spoke again "Zekro, really. Damn I would hate to be her"

the second garden added in "I heard that he's been with the other guy last few days, the one they call Capt.'s colors are red white and blue but I heard with the serum they injected him with and Zekro's colors are red black and blue" the guard said then laughed

the first guard then replied "yeah who would've thought that the little widow is actually with the all-American hero"

the second garden raised a brow "you idiot of course there together they are teammates"

the first guard then shook his head "not like that dumb shit. Together together, like f-buddy" wise"

During this Clint clenched his fist as his blood boil with hatred for the captain, could this be true, did they really get together a little bit of time he was out on forced medical leave? He asked himself then he tasted a little bit of copper realized he was biting his lip too hard drew little blood, releasing his lip gritting his teeth he listened on

the second card then responded "no way man, really think so"

first guard nodded "I know so" he then stretched and yawned "well I'm out of here man. I have to get some sleep. Good luck tonight" he said then handed him the key walking away. Clint watching, decided that it was time to move on but continued on in the ducts leading to the room for man was guarding. He went forward about 5 feet and then turned left seen that it was a dead-end. He decided this was as good a place as any to get out there ducts you also had a good feeling that this was place he needed to be, perhaps his archer instincts. He opened up the duct seen that there was no one in sight climbed out this one was higher up the father so he had to hold onto the edge and slowly lowered himself down dropping only 2 feet. The bad part about that is left the duct open if anyone looked up they would know something was going on. He glanced around and saw a desk with a bunch of computers. Walking over he looked at the screens seen that they were prison cells. The screens were gray and fuzzy but you could make out people he could see his widow in one but not very well, and in another one strapped to a table the captain. He checked his surroundings again made his way down the narrow hallway a head. The first or he came to was locked but he used the same card is before to grant him access. Once inside there was doors lined his right and left and then straight ahead look to be a staircase spiraling down. He looked in the board windows on the doors to his left and right not seen who he was looking for until he reached the last dorm to left, looked in seeing his widow "Nat,." He whispered at that moment she then looked over to him her eye was black and her cheek was bruised. Her beautiful red Plum lip now damaged with a split was covered by scab. Seeing him her face lit up for a second, then her eyes narrowed anchored "Clint, what in the hell are you doing here! This could be a trap"

the archers heart had sank seeing that she was hurt and he wasn't here to protect her, he knew she could handle herself, he knew she was highly skilled, probably more so than him but something within him needed to protect her, always wanted to protect her. "Natasha, I'm getting you out of here"

"Clint you idiot, are you here alone, does anyone know you here..." She snapped into the loudest hush tone she had

Clint shushed her "Tony, Bruce and Thor are wood's not far from here working on their plan,.. You know I work better loan" he said in the process of picking her lock. The door was old-style door nothing too complicated that he could tell

she shook her head "Clint you should go, I'm positive this is a trap... Why else would they leave jail was so little security"

Clint finally unlocked the door using only a small toolset that he had. "Come on let's go"

"we have to get Capt. Rogers, they have done something to.. He's not feeling like he used to" Natasha said her voice as disguised as ever had a hint of worry to it

the worry in her tone may Clint jealous couldn't help it, but the news worried him to.. All in all the captain was a good guy who only cared about others and was a moral citizen, he had a big heart and an innocence to him that made the archer even more jealous. "Where is he" Clint asked.

"I haven't seen where they keep him" Natasha said casting her eyes down for a moment as if this next part really bothered her "but, here he screens coming from that spiral hallway" at that moment they both looked the doorless spiral in the dim lights within. The archer and spoke "let's go get the captain back"
