Chapter 4: Not The Size, But the Want

I paced the living room floor trying to think of something, anything, that could help us. I went over to Clint's apartment, "Clint?" I knocked on the door lightly, "Please, I know you're in there, people are asking where you've been, they say have courage, and I'm trying to, I'm right out here for you, just let me in-"

"Come in, just please stop singing Frozen." He said. I smirked then opened the door.

His apartment was trashed, and he was lying in a heap on the couch, "Clint, what the hell happened?" He didn't answer, "Please, we need you... Tony... He's dead..." I paused, choking back tears, "But... We have to prove to Tony and Nat that they didn't die in vain." I knelt down in front of him. His expression was blank, "Clint... Please, we need you now more than ever... I need you." I started crying.

A pair of arms wrapped around me, "Jess, you are the only girl left who gives a damn about me... I can't lose you... Not like I did Nat."

"Clint... It'll be okay, I promise." I looked up at him and kissed him.

The team was small, just Steve, Clint, Seamus and I. My dad walked in, "I've got a location on Hydras base." He said, add my dad to the team,

"Dad, you can't go... I don't want you to get hurt."

"I'll be fine Jess, I won't sit back and watch everything my parents created go to waste."

I nodded, "Then we go tonight, at nightfall."

We silently made our way through the woods, "The base is heavily guarded, we'll have to get through layers at a time." My dad said. Through the trees we could see bright lights, like a football stadium.

The base looked like a prison or a military compound, steel walls that rose probably 50 feet high were lined with razor wire, guard towers covered the diameter, and spotlights shone everywhere, "How do we get in?" Seamus asked,

"We have to take out the guards first, if we're spotted then we'll all be dead." Everyone looked at Clint, "Can you take them out?"

"Yeah, it looks easy enough." He climbed up in a tree and took aim, taking out all 10 guards,

"Nice one Clint." We headed to the base,

"These doors are pure steel, how do we get through?" Steve asked,

"Get ready for a fight." I said and used my telekinesis to pry the door open by force.

That was when the alarm started and the real fight began.
