A source of hope 4

(Previously)

Skye starts training with captain Rogers but allows her to call him Steve, Steve learns a little about what Skye's former S.O liked and did and tries to teach her differently... A week later JARVIS informs them that they have a mission.

(Present)

" Okay Capsicle and hacker are here JARVIS what's the mission?" says Stark standing in front of the large touch screen monitor. " Director Colson has requested Agent Barton , Agent Skye and Captain Rogers infiltrate a hydra base in Fairfield California... The main target is James Kamenski ... Thirty eight years old , no record except for a sealed juvenile file , he is approximately a hundred sixty pounds , six foot one and brown hair . According to intelligence most of the remaining Hydra operatives have begin gathering at a warehouse in east Fairfield California." Says Jarvis

Clint raises a eyebrow and looks at the picture of James Kamenski trying to figure him out but coming up with nothing. " So our mission is to take down the warehouse and bring in Kamenski?" asks Steve and Jarvis replied " Your mission is to retrieve James Kamenski while Skye hacks into the last of hydras secure data files and copies them before deleting their copy." Skye understands the mission and immediately nods in acknowledgement.

" Your taking one of the few quin jets that is still operational, you leave in half a hour. Suit up." Says Stark and the three assigned people leave the room to get ready. Six hours later

"Okay com check." says Steve and both Skye and Clint reply " Copy" Skye has her combat vest with a icer at her leg holster and a Ruger LC9 concealed under her blouse.

" HawkEye your the top level, Skye your with me we will make our way to their computers for you to hack in. " both Skye and Clint nodded, Clint held his bow " Lets move" he says as he moves to the front entrance while Steve and Skye move to the back entrance. The hacker has her backpack on securely as she draws her Icer and together on Steve's signal they enter the warehouse in a rush.

Steve immediately sent his shield into the first two hydra guards making them fall to the ground unconscious, Skye spun to the right and shot a armed soldier. She stayed close to her partner as they worked together to make their way to James Kamenski and the computers. " Found Kamenski... He is heading your way Capt." says HawkEye through the coms.

Skye feels a presence behind her only to gasp as a gun was pointed to her head, Captain America spun around only to freeze as he sees Kamenski pointing at his trainee. " Kamenski you don't want to do this... Just put the gun down and let her go." he says calmly yet extremely cautious. Skye watches as Steve looks to her in worry and she immediately doesn't like the idea of him thinking she is helpless, She came up with a idea.

" James Kamenski... May I call you James? Good now I have to ask why weren't you John Garrett's second? I mean you have stayed hidden longer than him , you have been following Garrett's legacy and yet you were not his second in command? How did that make any sense." she says with a small amount of imploring attitude as well as pure logic. Steve looked at Skye in concerned manner as she made finger motions to remain calm.

Kamenski looked to Skye in confusion as he replied "Ward was Garrett's lapdog all he ever did was follow orders unquestionably... I heard he even broke a hackers heart when hydras came out from hiding because he was ordered to. I heard she was a mighty fine and cute thing to see, some orders aren't worth following is she was a appealing as I heard I would've had fun with her." he says lastly with a mischievous grin.

Skye's eyes darkened and Steve nearly flinched at how tight her fists clenched in anger, "you know what's really appealing?" she asks with a sing song voice and Kamenski moves a little closer and asks " And what's that?" Skye smirked and faster than both Steve or Kamenski could react Skye spun around yanked the gun from his hand punched him in the face hard enough to send him to the ground before she tossed his gun away and pulled hers " Shooting you sounds really appealing!" She said not happy at his comments about the so called hacker that just so happened to be her.

Skye jumps back as he tries to kick her legs out from underneath her she grasp her Icer and shoots him directly twice one to the chest and one to the heart sending him into unconscious. The hacker looked to Captain Rogers timidly and said " I don't like when talk about me like that, the computer room should be straight down the hall. You get him I can get to the computer." She takes off faster than Steve can process, he quickly ties up Kamenski and runs in the direction his trainee went.

Steve got to the room to see two knocked out hydra agents and his trainee typing rapidly into the computer, " How long?" he asks momentarily giving her a heart attack. " Barton we have Kamenski and Skye is working on the computer download, how's it going up on top?" Skye continues to type before she says " two minutes tops Capt." Steve nods and guards the door. Clint's voice comes on the coms " Upper level clear but the fighting scared a incoming chopper, it looks like some rich guy with a expensive looking suit."

Skye tenses immediately having a good idea who it is before she shouts " I am done!" she pulls her pin drive out and then deleted all information on the hard-drive before putting the pin drive in her shirt for safe keeping and rushing to Steve hand clasped tightly on her night night gun. " Barton we are making our way out, clearing bottom floor as we go." says Skye through the coms as her and Steve grab Kamenski and go through the bottom level guns blazing.

" Capt your left!" Yells Skye as she is shooting at four hydra agents approaching her, Steve turned to his left and punched the guard effortlessly. As soon as Skye got near the entrance ahead of Steve she spotted HawkEye under fire and surprisingly he was on his last arrow, but what he didn't know was that someone was sneaking up behind him. Skye looked down and she was out of Night Night rounds, with out even thinking she ran as fast as she could and right as a gun shot went off pushed HawkEye out of the way.

She felt stinging pain through her left arm but ignored it as she pulled her her concealed and fired at the two remaining hydra agents shooting at the heart. Skye got back to her feet with a hiss as Clint said " You okay kid?" Steve ran in and saw his trainee with a bleeding left arm he looked at her in concern but she smiled and said " Just a flesh wound ... That's the last of them lets get out of here."

Skye, Steve, Clint all dragged Kamenski out of the warehouse and to the quin jet. "Skye next time don't run off... You could of been hurt more than a flesh wound." says Steve as he wraps his trainees arm, " I am sorry Capt, but not sorry for saving Hawkeye." she replies emotionlessly and Steve raises a eyebrow at her statement.

They arrive at Avengers tower several hours later where Skye immediately goes to send the hydra info to the Director automatically barricading herself in her room. She was typing rapidly before JARVIS interfered " Agent Skye Mr. Stark is requesting your presence in the lounge." the hacker sighed as she sent Director her notes and hydra files before calmly walking out of her surprisingly clean room and to the lounge.

" Agent Skye... Pepper wanted to know if you would tag along with her? I know your not a high level agent but it would be good if she has some level of protection. Plus it would be good for pepper to have a girls night out at the mall or where ever." says Tony with a shrug and Skye replies " Umm wouldn't Black Widow I mean Agent Romanoff be better for protection?" Tony shakes his head " If Pepper was in great danger yeah... but Pepper likes you and you haven't gotten out of the tower other then for quick runs with Capsicle and the mission earlier today and you saved Legolas therefore she insists that you go with her."

Skye sighs realizing that she can't get out of this " Very well Mr. Stark." Tony smiled as he tossed her keys " Take the eclipse you won it therefore you should drive it. She is waiting for you in the garage." Skye caught the keys and for a moment her eyes sparkled and she gave him a genuine smile before rushing back to her room to change and grab her purse.
