"Son of a bitch." Clint grunted as he gripped his right shoulder.

The bullet went through and through but it hit literally an inch left of his last wound.

Steve fired his gun and Clint heard a thud before he felt a hand on his other shoulder. "Are you okay?" Steve asked. The concern in his voice made Clint stand straight and nod. "Yeah I'm fine." He breathed. Steve eyed the blood leaking out from between the archers fingers.

"Isn't that where you got stitches?" Steve noticed as he followed him toward the door. Clint let out a soft laugh. "Yeah, that's just my kind of luck."

"Did the stitches open?" Steve asked as if Clint didn't answer. "I don't think so." Clint stepped into the building and his eyes found the hidden door that was sticking up.

They made their way over to it and Steve dropped in. When he moved forward, Clint took a deep breath before letting go of his shoulder and dropping in after him.

They floor was made up of white tile and there wasn't anything in the room but two bodies on the floor and two doors on opposite walls.

"Tony?" Steve asking into his comm.

"Control room is through there and the first door on the right." Clint said as he made his way to the other door.

He nodded to Steve before he stepped through the open door. A few bodies were here or there but Clint couldn't figure out what they did because there wasn't anything in the rooms except maybe a chair or two. As he made his way around he realized the underground place was way bigger than he thought.


Clint walked into a new room a few minutes later that was just as empty as the others.

"Guys?" Clint called through the comms.

"You okay Barton?" Steve asked.

"Yeah, but something doesn't seem right. Where are you?"

"I'm with Tony in the control room." He answered.

Clint walked out of the room and went to go back but realized he didn't know which out of the four doors in the room he came through. That's when he noticed something.

"Wait, where's Natasha?" He asked.

"I'm not sure." Steve admitted.

"She went off through a different door when we got down here and she hasn't said anything." Tony spoke up.

"Natasha?" Clint asked into the comms. to see if he would get an answer. Nothing.

"Shit," He muttered to himself when he walked into a room that had a single door in it but the next room was empty with no other ways out.

Clint turned around and went back to pick a different door. Every room just about looked the same so he didn't realize he was actually going the wrong way until he came to another dead end.

"I think I'm lost." He admitted.

"Where are you?" Tony asked. Clint rolled his eyes.

"I don't know, Stark that's why it's called lost."

"I'll try to find you." Steve said.

"No." Clint called. "Something isn't right. You'll just get lost too."

"Can anyone hear me yet?" Natasha's voice suddenly came through the comms.

"Natasha?" Clint asked, looking around even though he knew she wasn't near him. Clint turned to backtrack.

"Finally! I think I'm lost and my comm. wouldn't work."

"Isn't that weird, the two spies on our team are the two that get lost." Tony snickered.

Clint suddenly got dizzy and he had to lean against the wall. He pried his hand away from his shoulder and wiped some of the blood off on his pants.

"I'll scan the rooms from here and see if I can find you." Tony said. "Holy shit." Clint heard Tony whisper but he couldn't find it in him to respond. He was still leaning on the wall and closing his eyes. He was so tired.

"There are a lot of rooms," Tony explained."Romanoff, I think I see you. Barton, I have no idea where you are."

Clint didn't say anything but listened as Tony gave her directions. Clint let out a deep breath and pushed himself off the wall and kept walking.

"Barton? Can you hear me?" Steve asked. Clint could barely make out what he said. His comm. was glitching.

"Can you hear me?" Clint asked. No response.


Natasha was in the control room with Tony and Steve. Tony was going through stuff on the monitors but she wasn't paying attention. She did have this feeling that something wasn't right and now Clint was lost out there.

"Clint?" Natasha asked but it was dead quiet.

"Maybe his ear piece isn't working." Steve suggested when he saw how nervous Natasha looked.

"Guys, there's nothing here." Tony said and turned to face them.

"What do you mean?" Steve asked.

"There isn't anything on anyone of these computers. I just spent five minutes trying to hack into a document and it was blank. They all were."

That's when they heard a bunch of distant slamming. Natasha ran out. She went through two doors to get back to the trap door they came in through. It was closed and she couldn't open it. Some type of metal door or something was slid over it.

"Clint?" Natasha called almost desperately into the comm.

There was no answer and she ran through the door Steve said he went into.
