Chapter 11

Kip looked over at Liz's sleeping figure as they sped down the highway. Liz shifted slightly, Kip tensed. If Liz woke up now it wouldn't be good. Kip hoped Liz wouldn't wake until they got back to the tower, which would be in roughly, Kip looked at the map she had pulled up on her phone,

"Four hours... Four hours. Great, four hours in a car, with no one but an unconscious person who could wake up any second, freak out, and possibly try to kill me." She sighed. "Well, better get going." She slammed on the gas and the car sped down the road.

OOOOO

Kips eye were heavy as she finally made the last turn into the garage of stark tower. She sighed in relief.

"Thank god." She whispered. Right at that moment Liz woke up with a start. Her breathing was heavy and she had a look of terror on her face. She turned and saw Kip.

"W-what's boing on? Where am I!?" She tugged at her seat belt trying to get it off. Kip quickly jumped out of the car and rushed over to Liz's side. She opened the door and took Liz by the shoulders.

"Hey hey, it's ok. It's me, Kip, remember? Clint's sister?" She said. A look of relief washed over Liz's face.

"K-Kip?"

"Yeah, it's me. You ok?"

"Yeah, I-I think so." Liz shakily took her seat belt off and got out of the car. "What's going on? What happened?"

"You went looking for Steve, but you were attacked. Do you remember?"

"Y-yeah. B-but how are we here? What happened?"

"Someone took you hostage, a SHIELD agent got you out and took you to Steve. Then he took you to a hospital." Kip paused for a moment. "They discharged you a couple hours ago, but they had given you some heavy medication. You passed out when you got into the car. They said you might have some slight um... Memory loss, but you'll be ok." She finished. Liz nodded.

"W-where's Tony? And Steve?"

"They're up on the communal floor probably, you want to go see them?"

"Yes." Liz replied quickly.

"Alright, let's go." Kip helped Liz get out if the car and, unhappily, into the elevator. Kip shivered slightly as she walked into the elevator. When they were in Jarvis spoke.

"Welcome back miss Stark, Miss Barton. Which floor?"

"Communal, please." Kip said.

"Of course."

"Thanks J." Liz said, shakily. Kip smiled slightly when she heard Liz use a nick name for the AI. The elevator started moving up. Finally, much to Kip's relief, the doors opened, reviewing Stark and Rogers. There were tons of empty beer bottles next to Stark and a half empty one in his hand. Rogers was standing in front of him with a large frown on his face. They both turned when the elevator opened.

"W-wait...Lizzy? Stark asked.

"Yeah, who else would it be?" Liz said back with a weak smile on her face. Stark shot up and rushed over to Liz, hugging her. Kip met Rogers eyes. She slowly brought her finger up to her lips and mouthed, later. She hoped Steve would know what she meant. He gave her a small nod, then went to Liz and hugged her tightly. The three other didn't even notice as Kip slipped out of the room through the stairwell door.

OOOOO

It had been an hour since Kip and Liz had returned and Kip was laying on her bed in the basement, which she had now deemed her arrow cave. She new it was dumb but she just couldn't let go of everything. As much as she tried not to she still missed them. Felicity, Diggle, Oliver... Every night she thought of Laurel and her father. They must miss her... She didn't even tell them she was leaving, she didn't even say goodbye. She squeezed her eyes shut and a tear rolled down her check. Jarvis's voice startled her.

"Miss Barton, Miss Potts would like me to inform you that dinner is ready." He said. Kip sat up and whipped her face.

"Ok, I'll be right there."

OOOOO

Kip had just eaten dinner and was now heading down the stairs to her room, she was two flights away when she heard someone move a flight down. She stiffened, and slowly continued down the stairs. She saw a dark, tall figure waiting by her door. He was definitely a man, she could tell by his build. He could easily over power her in a normal fight, but luckily she had the element of surprise. She snuck up behind the man and jumped on his back, hitting the back of one of his knees and he fell to the ground she landed on top of him and found herself staring into the eyes of...Steve? She lessened her grip on him.

"God dammit Rogers!" She got up. Steve slowly got up to relaxed, a little too relaxed. Kip saw it coming before he had her pinned up against the wall, but she let him do it anyway. She could get out if she had to anyway.

"What did you do to her!?" He said angrily

"I saved her life Rogers!" She spat back. "And if you can't appreciate that then you're an ass." She hesitated. "Look, I'm not going to tell you what I did. That information is classified."

"Like all your lies?" He said, pressing her against the wall harder.

"What I tell you isn't lies. Liz is alive, so just be happy worth that." Before Rogers could do anything, she shoved him off of her and stepped out of the stair well into her room, locking the door behind her. She sat down on her bed, and looked at the calendar hanging in the wall. She sighed.

"Well, 29 days until hell. Better start making the most of it." She laid down on her bed and starred at the ceiling. Her eyes finally grew heavy and they slowly closed.
