Clint and I landed on the rooftop of the building, having me look up briefly and see the plan fly by us and into the night. I then ran after Clint and we both opened the roof access door, getting inside and having me pull out my phone once more. Going through my phone settings and getting that taken care of, I saw Clint take out an arrow and arm in case we were going to be followed.
"Disarming the security systems now." I said aloud, knowing that Fury was hearing through our communicators. I pressed a new buttons and then saw through my phone the security feed going down on defenses and checkpoints. After I did this, I looked at the floor plans regarding the building and seeing the labs on the 17th level being surrounded by armed soldiers. I knew the serum would be there. If not, then it would be a good decoy. So it had to be a good decoy.
I lead the way down a few flights of stairs with both my phone in one hand and my other hand free incase something where to happen. After doing this, I kept my phone in front of me behind Clint as he waited by the door to go into the hallway. He looked behind me, seeing me tap a few numbers into my phone and see the cameras that were on the walls against the corners and in front of some of the doors. I got into the cameras of this floor and saw about 6 soldiers there, walking back and forth armed with guns.
"6 of them." I said aloud to Clint, seeing him tap a few buttons on his bow and then on his harness. He loaded a special arrow as I placed my phone away in my pocket. Using my regular pistol, I there off the safety and nodded at Clint. He threw open the door and then shot his arrow into the hallway, having me hear a hissing sound and see some smoke come out from near the door.
"Arm yourselves!" I heard them yell as the two of the bolted from the stairway and into the hallway, having me instantly see one come my way and I shot him down right in the head. There was fog all in the hallway, thanks to Clint and his special arrow. Another soldier came to my right as two were gunning Clint, having me duck as the soldier swiped at me. I threw him over my back and hearing him fall to the floor. I held the nozzle end of the pistol in my hand as a third solider ran towards him, slamming him in the head with my pistol and hearing him grunt as I swiped my arm out to punch him in the same place. He blocked it, having me duck his punch and block his kick to my ribs.
"Clover, Clint. What is your status?" I heard in my earpiece as I looked over for a mere second. Clint nailed a guy in the head with the end of his bow, making him fall to the floor unconscious as I kneed the third soldiers in the rib and saw him hunch over. I immediately kicked him in the head, seeing him fall down and not get up. I got up slowly, see in Clint take out one more soldier with a arrow to his neck, having the solider fall to the floor while Clint was still holding his arrow in his hand.
"So far so good." I said aloud as I saw the fog lighten up finally. All six soldiers were on the floor sprawled out, and I knew they weren't going to move anytime soon. There was suddenly a soft humming sound, almost like a radio in the air as I looked around, having my gun out and read to shoot if I needed to. But it was coming from one of the unconscious soldiers, off their shoulder there was something making the noise.
"Do you copy?" I heard a voice and saw that it was a warlike talkie. I leaned down to hear the walkie some more as Clint looked around for others coming out way.
"Agent Walker, do you copy?" I heard it ask aloud, someone was looking for them. I grabbed the walkie-talkie and hooked it to my backpack in case we were going to hear from others.
"We need to keep moving down a few flights, they know something's wrong." I said aloud to Clint as he nodded his head and I got up from my spot. If they were coming our way, then they will be quick and Norman will not be pleased. Clint and I started walking again to the elevator door, having my take out my phone and start up the elevator to take us down two more flights without any problems from anyone. As the doors closed behind us, I reloaded by pistol once more and looked at my phone, seeing as we got closer there were new cameras on the floor that we wanted.
"Twelve of them surrounding the lab." I said in almost a groan, trying to think of how we can get through twelve of them without either Clint or I getting hurt. This was one was to be ten times as worse. Both of us with six each, six of the super soldiers that are under Norman's command. If we were going to get through there, we needed something big.
But then it hit me.
"Thank you Tony." I said aloud grabbing the gun strapped to my thigh. It was so light in my hand that I was fraud of dropping it by just moving my hand. I held it up and cocked the gun right before the doors opened. We both looked and for a mere second we were frozen in out spots, seeing twelve soldiers all in front of the door with their guns out at the ready in front of us. I knew we had a split second to act, so I threw up my gun above their heads and shot two times.
Instantly there were bright lights, having me think I was right in the middle of a firework show that I could not escape from. There was random gunfire as I saw Clint throw on his sunglasses and I did the same. We could finally see, noticing the men were literally shooting at random things. This gave us time to sneak through and take out as much as we could before getting into the lab section of the floor. The lab was right in the middle with thick glass surrounding the area. I knew the serum was in there, with twelve super soldiers guarding it and only two of us.
All I saw was colors, colors and bright lights blinking from the gunfire as we fought our way through. I got soldier after solider, making sure they would stay down as I got closed to the land doors. Remembering Tony and what he said about these explosives, they would last a few more seconds as I hacked into the panel and got the doors opened. Looking behind me I saw Clint taking out the last soldier and getting through the doors with me, making me close the doors and lock them in case we were going to be visited. As soon as we were both safe inside, the explosives cleared and I saw the smoke clear as well. We both looked and saw that all twelve of the soldiers were on the floor out cold. I smiled as I looked down at the gun in my hand. I had to thank Tony later when we were done with this mission.
Both Clint and I looked at the lab we were in, seeing how clean and pristine it was compared to the lab that we were used to at Helicarrier. I saw tools that seemed more expensive than anything we ever had, and that was saying something.
Clint drew an arrow as I had my pistol in hand, the both of us walking around the area to see where he would have hidden the serum. I had no idea where he would hide something like this. It made me look twice as hard and twice as fast I heard on the walkie-talkie someone else.
"There has been a disturbance on the 17th floor. Find whoever it is and get rid of them before Mr. Osborn finds out." I heard on the radio and I looked over at Clint. Before he could say anything to me, I pulled up my phone and looked through some of the cameras in the building. Clint had the both of us squat down behind a desk as I saw the cameras in the meeting room where Norman and the Germany head were a. It made me wonder where Natasha, Peter and Steve where when it came to this.
"We don't have a whole lot of time." Clint said to me, as he looked over the desk from his spot. I could tell he was making sure the coast was clear, "We have to find the serum now before Norman goes in for the kill."
"Widow you read me?" I asked aloud into my earpiece, hoping that she would pick up on the other end.
"I read you Clover." I heard her on the other line, making me smile slightly.
"What's your status?" I asked her aloud, looking around myself to find anything that would have the serum.
"We're very close to getting Norman before he goes in. If he goes into his Green Goblin mode, we'll need more than just the three of us." Widow explained to me as I saw something out of the corner of my eye. I saw a box within one of the desk drawers, it looked like it was made of steel and had a handle on the front. It all clicked in me.
It was a safe.
"Clint." I said aloud, crawling over to the safe and looked at it with worried eyes. I never hacked into a safe, nor did I know how to get into one. Clint came over with me, looking at the safe with intense eyes. I didn't see this in the plan, and I had no idea how to get into a safe without being caught by an alarm of some sort. But I saw Clint take off his harness and place it on the floor next to him, taking off his gloves and started to work on the safe.
"You know to crack a safe?" I asked him aloud with a surprised tone, seeing him look over at me with a big grin on his face.
"Something I picked up while working as a assassin. Besides, you never asked when we went to dinner." He replied back to me, turning the dial and making me grin at him.
"We need to work on our communication." I said in a grunt as I looked over the desk once more, seeing that there was no one coming. I leaned against the desk, getting out my phone and looking through the cameras once more and seeing that there were at least ten more soldiers coming our way two floors down about to hit the elevator. I saw Clint still working on the safe and was close to finishing it, making me sit there and think on how we were going to get out of this new challenge in front of us. What could I use against them? I had only a shotgun and pistol; maybe Clint had something up his sleeve.
"I'm in." I heard next to me, having me look over and see him open the door. We both looked inside and saw that there was a small silver case inside. I grabbed the case carefully and placed it in my lap, still sitting against the desk and opened it. There, inside the small case, were four vials and one needle ready for usage.
The serum was in our hands.
"We have the serum." Clint said aloud to his earpiece as I closed it and placed it in my backpack. I treated it like I was a thief treating diamonds that I just stole: with the up most importance. There was a sense of security with this serum, so much technology and science in four small glass vials.
"Clint and Clover are in the clear." Fury said aloud as I was about it put on the backpack before I heard something small, very small behind us near the front of the laboratory. I froze in my spot, as did Clint, having me try to think again. The ten soldiers were hearing now, and they were waiting for our first move. I looked around the corner slightly, seeing them come through the elevator and then back at Clint.
"You have any ideas?" I asked him aloud in a low tone, seeing him get his harness back on and bow in hand. I saw him press a few buttons and take out another special arrow from his harness and load it in his hands.
"I'll take them out, I just need a clear shot without being blown to pieces." He explained to me, looking to our right to find shelter. How was he going to do that? Something had to be done in order to make this work.
"If I can get over there while they stay where they areā¦." He trailed off, having me sigh and throw out my shotgun and cock it in my hand. He looked back at me as I had my hoodie go over my head much more than before to hide my eyes. Before he could even argue with me, I ran out from the corner and heard the gunfire behind me, trying to hit me. I knew I was faster, much faster than them with their pounds of metal and killing machines strapped to them. I saw a long stretch of marble floor and I ran for it, sliding on my knees and shooting the first 3 of them that I saw.
"Shoot Clint!" I screamed, still sliding on the floor and ending up behind a desk. I immediately felt the desk in front of me being ripped apart by bullets as they reed to hit me. But this only lasted for a second or two, up until I heard grunting. It was like they were being hit by something, and then falling to the floor.
There was silence for a few seconds, making me be very still if they were stopping and waiting for me to place my head up in view. But I heard nothing, nothing but my rabid breathing and from metal hitting the floor. Slowly and surely, I had my gun in my hand and looked over the damaged desk that saved my life. All of the remaining men were dead on the floor, with smoke coming out of their chests and backs and the lights in the lab were sparkling out of the control. The scene in the lab alone made me look in astonishment, seeing how bad we destroyed the place. I saw Clint standing alone at out original spot, his bow in hand and breathing in and out heavily. He looked over at me as I placed my shotgun back on my back.
"Work on our communication? Really?" he asked me, making me smile at him and shrug from my spot.
"Its like you said, it was never mentioned at dinner."
