"Suspected Rapist on Brigimans street, unit 58, he's yours, call if you need backup"
I shut the cover to my laptop and slid it under the ledge of the roof to hide it. I pull up my black bandanna over my mouth like a mask and set off in a run. I jump from building to building until I reach the edge of Brigimans street. Down bellow I hear a young girl about a year younger than me,
"Please,...Get away from me"
I climb down the edge of the building until I am about 10 feet above the man, and then I jump. I land right on top of him, and knock him to the ground. He tries to get back up, but I throw a punch that breaks his jaw.
"How can I ever repay you?" the girl ask
"The pleasures all mine" I respond
I hear distant sirens, and know that that is my signal, which causes me to run off down the aly.
That night I stopped one rapist, three bicycle thieves, and one robbery. When I get back to my apartment building I grab my laptop and head inside, making sure to lock the door behind me. I changed out of my patrol clothes which consist of ; combat boots, black jeans, a black long sleeve turtleneck, and my dad's old leather jacket. I look at the clock and notice it is almost 3:30, I slip into bed and fall soundly asleep.
"It's all your fault, your mom's cancer wouldn't have gotten this bad if you had made her go to the doctor earlier" "She'll be dead because of you and you'll have no-one left"
I wake up shaking and drenched in sweat,
"Great" I say under my breath
I rip the sheats of my bed and put new ones on. I look at the clock and see it's almost five, "I Guess I'll get ready". I step into the shower and turn it on, when I get out I slip on my outfit for the day; a pair of black leggings and a dark grey vintage Captain America t-shirt with his shield on the front. It's common for people to be wearing Avengers style clothes here since the Avengers tower is literally a ten minute walk from my apartment building. I dry my hair which falls in loose waves about six inches below my shoulders. I place it into a half up half down before stepping into my room. I put on a little bit of Mascara and decided I look halfway decent.
I step out into the kitchen and look into the pantry,
"Dam" I curse under my breath
There is only enough food to last me two meals in here. Guess that means no breakfast. Things have been awful tough since mom got cancer. The Medical bills are outrageous and with our source of income gone, there is not enough money left for me to buy food. This leaves me scraping through the dumpster behind the local whole foods. To make matters worse my neighbor, Mrs. Malloy was supposed to be over here every day watching me, so CPS doesn't haul my ass off, but I haven't seen her once since my mom got cancer.
It's about six forty-five, so I decided to start getting ready to leave for school. I put on my dad's leather jacket, and slid on my black vans that I got for my thirteenth birthday two years ago, they are tight but so is money round here and they were the nicest shoes I've ever got. I put my mask in the front pocket of my backpack, just in case. I lock the door and begin my hike to school.
Steve Rogers was no stranger to SHIELD briefing rooms, today he, Tony, Clint, and Natasha were waiting for Agent Colson to come and brief them for their next mission.
"You think eye patch would make his agents on time for one" Tony Snapped
"Chill out, tin can he is not even a minute late"
Typical tony, he hated SHIELD and everything about it. Just then Agent Colson entered the room. He presses a button on the table, it projects a photo of a girl on the screen. She is probably late teens early twenties, even though the photo is blurry, you can see she has long brown wavy hair and is wearing a bandanna as a mask over her mouth.
"This is Victoria Clarkson, she lives in Queens, New York. During the day she is an average citizen, by night she is surveilling the streets as the name she has got for herself, the Masked Hero. Your Job is to bring her in, once you have call me and I will come to your tower to interrogate her" Colson says.
"Sir If I may ask, why is SHIELD so interested in her?" I ask
" SHIELD is cracking down on Gifted Individuals, while she may not have powers, we want to make sure she doesn't pose a threat to New York. I must leave now, I have to get on a plane to the slingshot" Colson replies
"So one-eye brought us in here to tell us we have to catch a vigilante" Tony says.
"Yep"
We walk out to Tony's Limo in silence, about five minutes into the ride Clint says,
"So how are we going to catch this Vigilante"
"I have an Idea" I reply
RRRRRINGGGG the final bell rings in my ears as I walk out of the school. I follow the familiar root till I reach the sterile front door and walk in the hospital. I take the elevator to the fourth floor, Surgery. The receptionist welcomes me with her warm smile,
"How's she doing today?" I ask.
"Okay" she says in a sad tone.
I walk into the familiar room, 355, and sit down in the chair next to her bed.
"Hey mom"
"Who are you?" she replies
"It's me, Victoria, your daughter"
"I never had a Daughter…...Is that My husbands jacket?!" she asks in a furious tone
She looks at Dad's leather Jacket and then back at my face.
"Mom, this was dad's jacket, you gave this to me after he died."
"No I did not….. You're a thief and a Murder. GET OUT before I call SECURITY"
A nurse walks in and grabs my arm, escorting me out of the room.
"
"I'm so sorry" she Whispers
And that's It, I had lost my mother, or at least for the moment.
