It's a shorter chapter, but now things will start to happen.
The day was growing late and Matt, exhausted. When Clint had asked him to 'train' he didn't know it meant shooting arrows at his face. The air split as the metal tip flew past Matt's face, making him jump. He was floating off the edge of the roof on the Avengers Tower as Clint shot arrow after arrow. Matt had a plan for escape ready to go, all he needed was to take care of Clint. The man certainly lived up the name Hawkeye.
"Don't tell me you're getting tired already?" Clint said lowing his bow.
"It's been hours, I can fly but only for a limited amount of time." Matt wasn't lying, he wasn't wrong either when he called his powers a muscle, and it was growing tired. If only he could use his escape plan now. He knew it was now or never with the events of the day. It had all began when Steve had brought Matt to Director Fury.
FLASHBACK
"Matt, meet Director Nick Fury, leader of S.H.I.E.L.D and our boss." Steve said motioning to the one eyed intimidating person in front of him.
"Hello." Matt said offering a hand to the man, who simply ignored it. A sharp pain emitted from Matt's torso, even after it healed for the second time it was sore. Nick Fury wasn't happy to say the least, the person standing in front of him was wanted by all the law forces in the country.
"Why is he here?" Stark spoke up entering the room.
"Nice to see you too, Stark." Nick told turning to face him who in return rolled his eyes.
"Matt is here to learn how to control his abilities, and maybe join the team." Steve said walking forward. Matt's jaw hit the ground, join the Avengers? They were really making this act really believable, he would still play along.
"Would I get a cool name?" Matt asked with a hint of humor.
"Name?" Nick said full of venom.
"Yeah, you all have cool names. Captain America, Iron Man, Hulk, Black Widow, Hawkeye, and Thor. You have cool names, do I get one?"
"That's for you to decide I guess." Nick said turning around to face the Avengers.
"You can smell the testosterone." Matt muttered before walking out of the room. The Name, maybe he should have a cool name. He would never work with the Avengers while they wanted to kill him but he could still have some cool name to work with. The tower was enormous and the sounds of the repair crews in the city drowned almost everything out. Matt was still developing his escape plan, he could leave right now but with all the security cameras and Avengers on alert. With a sigh he walked into his room and sat on the floor in thought.
"No, I won't watch the kid all the time." Steve motioned to the monitors. "I wasn't going to allow the team to do it and I'm not going to let S.H.I.E.L.D do it either." Nick had turned the security cameras in Matt's room back on and was staring at the kid levitated is two pillows around.
"It isn't up to you, Cap. The kid did serious damage in Seattle, I've got the council breathing down my neck to turn him to the law. If I don't see results in a week I'm going to do just that!" Nick said before turning and departing.
"That went well." Stark said handing Steve a drink.
"Yeah. Hey, Clint!" Steve yelled to his friend. "You wanna be the first to get Nick's 'results'."
"Sure, I'll practice with the kid." Clint whipping his bow out.
"Don't kill him." Steve said as Clint walked to Matt's room and knocked on the door.
"No promises." Was the reply.
EXPECTED TIME SKIP
Matt was ready to escape now, Clint was running out of arrows and all the pieces fell into place. While arrow after was shot at him, Matt lifted a pebble with mind and got ready. Finally the last arrow soared into the air and the pebble with it. The pebble hit right on Clint's temple and brought him to the ground. With a smile Matt turned and shot across the city faster than ever before. With a frown he knew he'd have to change his outfit, he was currently wearing blue jeans, he could keep those. His t-shirt was a plain black shirt and that needed to change. Matt laughed to himself as he realized one important thought.
He had escaped the Avengers.
My Doctor Who reference was totally intentional, for those who don't know what I'm talking about, watch season 1 episode 5 'Dalek'. Thank you for viewing. MATT ESCAPED! (Did it seem a little too easy?) Yay! Now the first part of my story is going to begin.
