It was a busy day at the office as Stark sat in the director's chair. Not only was he a tech billionaire, but now the newly appointed director of SHIELD. If there was something good that came out of his war with Cap, it was this new position. SHIELD officials and event the public supported his role as the new director. Like his large company, running the organization was a breeze to him.
He may not like SHIELD in the past, but he did respect them, that is when he was not causing trouble. People saw this new change as a good thing; others saw it as a downfall to Stark. In his chair, Stark had access multiple SHIELD files, listed as classified. However, with the power of his Extremis, it made his work a lot faster and interesting.
The deputy director made her entrance as she presented his material. "Thank you Hill, and while we're at it, perhaps, you can fetch me another cup of coffee, this time with less sugar."
Maria Hill slammed the files on his desk in anger. "Don't get used to your new position Stark, just because I work for you, doesn't mean I like you."
"Well, anything is better than you continuing to play cops and robbers on our friends."
Hill glanced at the photo of Tony accepting his new award. "Just don't get too comfortable, one way or another you will mess up and when you do, everyone will turn against you, just like you turned against your friends during the Civil War, not everyone is going to forgive you with open arms. Nathan-Rad-Spencer is still peeved at you for locking him up."
"Really, I sent him a gift basket so I thought we were cool and besides, you guys are the ones who took him down a peg."
Hill left the room and then stopped. "Oh, and another thing, there is no drinking allowed, as the new director even you have to set an example just like you do with the Avengers."
Hill's words did not bother Stark one bit as he glanced through the files. As Tony scrolled down, one file captured his keen eye. It was an article on the incident of Raccoon City, dated back more than twenty years ago. Tony read each section of the outbreak and population of the destroyed city.
Because of the virus outbreak, the area was condemned an even banned from public means, but it did not stop organizations such as STARS and SHIELD from getting involved. Both parties were involved in the ongoing fight of the zombie and bio-weapon infestation. When scrolling some more, found some leads that the company was not inactive.
Many, many years have passed since the destruction of the mysterious Umbrella Corporation and the fall of Raccoon City. The Corporation served as major conglomerate for distribution of including pharmaceuticals and medical equipment, as well as top-secret operations utilizing genetic engineering, biological weaponry and even had their own private army. Over the years the large conglomerate to experience a decline of money, research, medicine, and resources, which led to its downfall.
Throughout the years, there has been nothing but rubble and small pieces of the vicious organization. No longer was this large corporation was worldwide. Goons from the corporation and the Bioterrorist were involved in the incident and have long since disappeared. Some had considered it long abandon, others tried to salvage was left of it.
Rumors begin to spread the Umbrella Corporation started to spread as SHIELD Agents was dispatch among the fallen corporation. The Agents went in with guns and hazard suits as a warning for any incoming activity. Even if it has been decades, one could never be sure of the things that still lied within the facility.
The rumors started to attract the attention of the American Federal Agent, Leon Scott Kennedy, a man who was familiar with these abnormalities. He was sent to the coast of Italy to investigate any activity going on, yet not alone as he was expecting someone, but for now, he went ahead. In terms of contamination, he had nothing to worry about as long as he had the bio-suit. The only fumes in the air were dust and leftover virus smoke.
"Keep those leftover samples coming; we need to get whatever we can." One of the SHIELD Agents ordered the others.
Leon's curiosity was peaked as he found a group of SHIELD Agents savaging the area, especially after he heard that the area had been closed off to them and the public. It only boggled him more as they were taking contaminated parts.
As he watched the SHIELD Agents pick up the dangerous pieces, this made Leon unsure of their motives. As fast as he could, he snuck through the shadows to kept close watch on the agents. Otherwise, if any had seen him, he would be ready for a quick takedown. Within the cracks, was a small security camera hidden in the building. The bug monitored the building as it saw both the SHIELD Agents and Leon inside.
He then heard a rumbling with the destroyed rubble. Leon could not see it, but he heard it and recognized the sounds. The hissing sounds made the SHIELD Agents shaken on their feet as the reloaded their guns. Then out of the rubble have appeared slimy tentacles and ensnared the Agents like an octopus.
Since they were struggling through the monster's grip, neither of the Agents could properly aim their weapon. They were firing all over the place, bullets were flying everyone, even to the place Leon was hiding. Just when Leon was about to act, a couple grenades flew into the building. It was then followed by heavy gunfire and someone shooting.
"Whoo-hoo, bang, bang, bang, bang!" A voice shouted from the roof of the building. The foe made it down as Leon saw the red mercenary made his dramatic entrance, listening to his MP3 player. While in the presence of the monster, he started to groove. "Here I go, here I go, (again). Girls, what's my weakness, (men), okay then. Chillin, Chillin, and minding my business (word). Yo Sault, I looked around and I couldn't believe this, I swear, I stared, my niece…" Deadpool sang to himself while fighting off the hoards of monsters.
Between bullets and katanas, Deadpool cut through the monsters with no hesitation.
"Wow awesomeness, I freaking love Resident Evil, I'm a bit of a horror guy myself, if you know what I mean."
"I suppose, you're the backup they sent me." Leon guessed as he walked to Deadpool.
"That's right I am, they know they can't get enough of good old Deadpool; even our dear readers out there. Aren't you glad to see me, I know everyone else is? Me personally, I think it's about time that damn stupid author put me in this new story."
"Not really, you know you don't exactly have the best reputation for heroics."
"Yeah no; a hero is not something in my vocabulary."
"I can see that." Leon and Deadpool heard more monster growls as they go on guard. Aside from that, the SHIELD Agents now were infected by the virus. Each of them looked as deformed and grotesque as possible. Leon and Deadpool were next.
"Pineapple surprise bitches!" Within his arsenal, Deadpool pulled out more bombs. He bombs impact the support structure as the whole building collapsed on the monster. It was time Deadpool and Leon made their exit after that.
As Leon witness the destruction of the building, he began to wonder. "This doesn't make sense, why would SHIELD being harboring T-Virus material?"
"Don't know, but do you think I can get a Selfie? I need one for my blog?"
"By the way are you okay, you got a spike on your shoulder?" Leon asked as he noticed Deadpool was hit.
"Not to worry, my Healing Factor comes in real handy for tough situations like this." Deadpool pulled out the needle and tossed it to the street.
Deadpool and Leon continued their discussion; a bug was monitoring them. "You may think you won, but I have other matters in store for you my friends." The Hydra scientist said through the monitor. "And I have the ultimate project in store for you."
"We got a lead, so we should move on, no telling what will be ahead of us next," Leon ordered.
In the meantime, as disguise word darken, this gave the perfect opportunity for sneak in. Having known about the base of operations way before the other two, the mysterious spy made her way to the base by it underwater travel. Because of that advanced technology of the old enemy, sneaking into the front or back proved to be fatal.
However, the Spy had other ways of getting into a highly secured facility since it was not her first time. Making a faint sound attracted the guard, only to be taken down silently as possible. But she wasn't done there as she found the scientist worker. She not only grabbed his lab coat but his access pass.
While making their way through the base, she stumbled across some security lasers. Fate was tempted her to slip past the lasers as a part of the fun, but she was on the tight schedule so she just used it the easy way. As the alarm system was designed she made her way to the mainframe and put her hacking skills to work. Being a spy this was one part of her credentials.
"Welcome, Ms. Wong." The Hydra scientist greeted the Spy.
"Arnim Zola; you're looking well as usual by your body seen better days. I guess this is what I expect from the new head of Umbrella. What happened did they fire you back a Hydra?"
"Those fools just understand my stroke of genius, I gave most of my life to that organization and they have the nerve to cast me out just because of a few...failures."
"Make that a lot of failures, I guess Hydro wasn't paying you enough."
"Bah, enough of this foolishness you will not leave out here alive, Doughboy, send her to her doom," Zola called out.
Ada drew her gun and shoot the screen Zola's face was shown. All the sudden, a thick substance started to surround her. Ada's movements became very limited. It was like being in some really thick water.
The dough started to engulf her. She couldn't punch or break out of the thick grip. Zola was assured victory was his as the spy struggled with the dough. As there wasn't a sound for a couple minutes, the living dough started to burst. While there was an opening, Ada used truck grapple gun to escape the beast.
Ada's escape did not come without consequence as the alarm was triggered. The alarm continued to sound as the lockdown was initiated and she rushed through the base. It was a close second but she managed to slip through it the elevator.
Silently she hid in the elevator thinking she was in the clear, only to be pulled out of the shaft by a metal hand. I grabbed her by the ankle and slammed her to the floor. Before that I could come, Ada dodged the blow as she witnesses the damage that one punch had done. It nearly broke the ground.
Ada took a good look at the attacker to reveal a rogue mercenary with a metal arm. The assassin gave the spy and cold death stare. She pulled out his gun and aimed it at the attacker The attacker stepped forward. "What a minute that arm, I know you, your Bucky Barns aren't you."
The assassin talked back, "I prefer the Winter Soldier now."
Knocking the gun of the spy's hand, Leon took him in close quarters. Since it was not just handguns he was experienced in, she managed to hold his own against the assassin. While the Assassin was open, Ada delivered a few jabs to the chest, followed by a jump kick.
Winter Soldier didn't stop there as he went for some counter hits. Ada may have proved a match for his skill, but not his metal arm as he felt the impact of the attacks. Ada's fist clashed with his only to prove that was a mistake as she felt the painful impact of his fist. Bucky pulled out a gun of his own, only to be knocked aside by Ada by her slip kick.
Ada then leaped off the wall and struck him with a double kick. Space for their fight was very limited as the elevator was frozen during the lockdown. Ada drew her knife against the soldier as Bucky did the same. From straight to horizontal thrust, the two of them clashed with knives. Each contact created sparks among the weapons.
With a step back, the two of them took a slash at each other. Ada shirt was cut revealing a part of cleavage as Winter Soldier suffered no damage. Realizing time was short; Ada went for another kick and then a quick escape in the shaft.
"See you later handsome," Ada said shooting the cables as the elevator started dropping down, while she went up. When making her exit, she saw Leon and Deadpool from a distance. It put a smirk on her face on how interesting this adventure of hers would be.
Ada jumped off the twenty-foot building and glided down to ground level. Unfortunately, she picked up a stowaway on her back, a bio-organic-weapon insect crawled on her back and spat acid. It took some maneuvering, but Ada managed to shake it off, but it sent crashing down. She was now falling so fast that she barely had time to use her grapple gun.
On the ground level, Leon and Deadpool continued their pursuit. This time to avoid the time, they commandeered a vehicle. Leon set the GPS as him and Deadpool continued on their way. Around that time Deadpool pestered Leon was questioned on his adventures in Raccoon City and zombie fighting. Leon answered to the best of his knowledge and even educated Deadpool on his minimum mind. He even told him about his partner in crime.
On the subject, it concerned Leon great, knowing that Ada was always at the wrong place at the wrong time. No matter what happened, their missions always collided.
"Come on relax pal, besides, it's not like your girlfriend is just to going to drop out of the sky or something," Deadpool assured. The merc with the mouth predictions came true as Ada fell in crashing onto the top of the car. Ada was unconscious but okay as Leon checked.
The Hydra scientist slammed his fist in frustration as he watched Ada Escape. He was not done just yet as he looked at other projects in store.
It was the quiet turn of events as the fallen Ada Wong dropped in before Leon and Deadpool. For a couple hours the Spy lied on conscience. Leon did not expect this, then again he was used to running into Ada on his missions, so it was a recurring theme whether their encounters were pleasant or not.
It wasn't until the sparks of Fire had awoken her. Ada's eyes begin to flicker like a broken light bulb. She found herself by the campfire with Leon and Deadpool. Both of them waited for her to awaken from her slumber. Despite the slight pain, the spy was able to sit up to see Leon and Deadpool right in front of her.
"Hey, Leon I think your girlfriend's awake," Deadpool informed.
"Hello, Ada." Leon greeted.
"Been a long time Leon." Ada greeted back.
"Yeah too long," Leon said acting all nonchalant.
"You're mad at me aren't you?" Ada replied in a flattering tone.
"Of course not, despite the way you've been tricking me these past years."
"It was really nothing personal just business."
"Same old Ada, always so shady." Leon handed the spy a cup of hot chocolate.
"Thank you." Ada took a few chuckles. "It must be a twist of fate for us to keep meeting like this."
"What's going on spy lady I'm..." Deadpool great about to introduce himself.
"I know who you are Wade Wilson." Ada cut the mercenary off as she drank her hot chocolate. "You don't exactly have the best reputation among others. So where did you fetch this guy?"
"Believe me it was not my choice."
"Whatever since you're here I might as well explain myself," Ada stated. "It's been said that the Umbrella Corporation has been inactive for years, but lately it's been operating in secret because it has a new player in town. Arnim Zola, a scientist from the Vicious organization known as Hydra. Lately, he's been tampering with the virus projects."
"But it still doesn't make sense why SHIELD would want such a dangerous project especially since it was banned by all governments?"
"Perhaps since the Umbrella Corporation could use this as their weapon maybe SHIELD can," Ada said back as she felt slight pain within their leg, courtesy of The Winter Soldier. Leon noticed it as he tore off a piece of clothing and wrapped it like a bandage.
Leon smiled and said, "I guess that makes us even now."
The conversation was then interrupted by a flash of light. Not only that but the sounds of rotor blades. The right nearly blinded Leon, Ada, and Deadpool. Soon to descend down to ground level, a group of SHIELD Agent. Each of them surrounded that for you the three of them ready to fire at any time.
"Don't move hands where we can see him, get on your knees!" One of Agent's called out.
"Hey dumb as ass SHIELD clones, we are on your side!" Deadpool shot back.
"There has to be some sort of misunderstanding." Leon tried to defend.
"I said to on the freaking floor, we got some questions we want to ask you!" They called out. "Get down or we'll open fire." As they started with their hands up, Leon, Ada or Deadpool could escape their entanglement.
Just when the Raccoon City Cop was about to act on impulse, a grenade flew inside the lab. Within a few ticks, it activated letting off a big flash. The intense flash combined with the reflective light was enough to blind the Agents temporarily. Then all of a sudden, within the smoke appeared an assailant. Using the smoke as stealth, he took down many of the SHIELD Agents at a time.
It was revealed to be the Winter Soldier again. It just his appearance alone, made Ada, Leon, and Deadpool pull out their guns. Bucky grabbed a fallen SHIELD and pulled off his uniform to unveil a Hydra soldier in disguise. After that misunderstanding, the three of them lowered their weapons.
Like you Ms. Wong, I was also on a uncover mission." Bucky answered.
They were not in the clear just yet as they heard growls from behind. Behind them were Doberman Pinscher infected with the T-Virus called Cerberus. Leon faced enough of these in his lifetime, so it was bad enough they decided to come back.
"Aw, look at the cute little puppy, come here, boy," Deadpool called out to the dogs, much to Leon's disgust. "You want to play fetch, Nah, Nah, Nah?" Deadpool taunted shaking his butt in front of the virus dogs faces. Immediately the dogs started chasing after Deadpool as the other three followed. Incompetent as he was at times, they knew what Deadpool was doing.
Through the car and motorcycle, Deadpool led the dogs away. Winter Soldier, Ada, and Leon followed. It was like a game of cat and mouse as the dogs chased them down. One of the dogs leaped forward, Ada jumped in for a side to kick to the dog's jaw. Another dog took a bite of Bucky's arm but did not feel a thing. The dog only felt his jaws weaken and felt Bucky's hook.
Deadpool and Leon tossed grenades to the dogs. They obeyed the ball as the cot, only to blow up in the end. When they arrived at their destination, expected visitors greeted them. The first of them was a human virus project also with a black trench coat and armed with two katana blades. It was the first throw Leon off his bike. The second was a couple new and improved Tyrant projects, now not just fussed with T-Virus, but was cybernetic enhanced.
"Love the new makeover, Zola," Ada said.
"They are my new Cyber-Tyrants made to perfection, not only that but I had some inspiration. And my finest creation in the trench coat is named Zero."
Deadpool looked at the project closely. "Wow, he looks familiar, so who's the inspiration?"
"He's you, you idiot." Bucky corrected. "He used your DNA to create that thing."
Deadpool, Leon, Ada, and Winter Soldier stood side by side, as they prepared for battle. "Now this is how badass we are truly supposed to look, strike a pose guys!" Deadpool cheered.
All four of them pulled out their guns and unloaded hells of gunfire on the Tyrant Projects. Zola laughed as the bullets were barely slowing them down. Zero jumped in as Deadpool defended the others. The two of them clashed with swords face to face. With every sword strike, Zero mimicked Deadpool's movements, but it did not stop the Merc from fighting him further.
Using his metal arm, Winter Soldier was able to break some of the claws of the metal Tyrants. When the other claw came in, Bucky pulled out a gun and shot the claws. Winter Soldier charged up his fist and aimed directly for the heart of the beast.
While the Tyrants were in metal, they were still valuable to close range attacks. Leon jumped on the shoulders of the beast and stabbed it in the eye, thus blinding him. Ada decided to bring in the heavy weapons as she loaded an explosive arrow. Since there was no time to load, Ada jumped on Leon's shoulder and stabbed the explosive arrow inside of the two Tyrant's heads. The Tyrants heads may be blown off but not their bodies. It was still coming at them regardless.
After the final clash of swords, Deadpool and Zero went for the final showdown. After a cut between one another, Zero's arms were cut. Deadpool knew that even if he was a poor imitation of the original, it was not the full one. Zero was not done as his body grew into six blades. When Zero's arm blades met with Deadpool's katana, Deadpool dashed for a few hits.
Before Zero could counter attack, Deadpool pointed down low only to find a bomb hidden in his stomach. The explosion sent the project into pieces and he started to melt. Zola knew he was defeated as he started to run away, yet not before being caught by Ada. With two electrical cords, she short-circuited his systems, disabling any chance to transfer his mind and escape.
"Sorry Zola, looks like your shows been canceled, get it?" Deadpool cracked a joke, much to everyone's groan. "What too soon?"
The remains of the virus liquidated virus project covered all of Zola's suit. The remains harden as he could not escape. He may have perfected the virus serum well, but not well enough. Zola was now a body without a living soul. Deadpool was done applying the finishing touches to his capture with the extra security.
"I made a call to SHIELD, the real one, should be coming over here to pick up the trash left behind," Leon announced. Leon approached Ada. "So I guess this is where you depart from here as usual?"
"Yes, I guess it is," Ada replied.
"I guess some things never change." Leon turned his back as Ada stopped him. Ada gripped his face and landed a kiss directly on his lips. A few seconds after they broke up the kiss, Ada was already gone to her next job.
"Well I say that worked out pretty nicely, don't you think?" Deadpool nudged the Agent. Bucky also gave a smirk to Leon.
Leon then found a message in his hand from Ada. It was labeled, 'See you next time darling,' with a kiss mark.
Leon scoffed happily and said. "Women."
"Well that was our story everyone, hope you enjoyed. So once again, read, review, subscribe and even favorite the story, not just for that author for your old pal Deadpool. Call me." Deadpool gave a wink.
