I don't own anything but my OCs
My Grammar is not the best so you have been warned.
A/N I think people are gonna give me shit for this one...
START
-Rosa-
He was taller now and his hair had grown out as well. Once upon a team he was a few inches shorter than her, but now it was the opposite. Barry held her close as they walked, the busy noise of New York didn't really bother them. She glanced at him, and Barry was smiling. He seemed to be enjoying the people and loud noises.
"I'm hungry," He announced as they walked. "I know a place where we can have some Breakfast." Right, she'd completely forgotten she too hadn't had breakfast yet. Barry led her into an Alley way and Rosa looked around in confusion.
"Hey what-
WOOOSH
Rosa suddenly felt herself get pulled before she stopped.
She blinked, what was once a dirty Alley way was now... central park? When did they even...
She looked at him and he had this smug smile. That smile answered her questions, he had gotten faster.
"We don't have a lot time before they zoom in on our location," Barry explained as he looked around, his smile turning upside down as he grabbed her by the arm and brought her in close. "Shield has you place bugged, so we couldn't talk there. And I know for a fact they are following me around. Listen, project Oracle is still a go, I just need to adjust the plan a bit." Rosa nodded as they begun walking around. They kinda looked like a couple out on a morning stroll.
"I understand, but what about you?" He turned to her with a confused face. Eyebrow raised. "The last letter I got from you said you're going to assassinate a guy in Alfganishtan. They have you killing people now?!"
"Oh that! Yeah I forgot I sent you that." Barry let out as he chuckled nervously. "I didn't think they'd let me see anyone today." She punched him in the arm and he cried out as held it. "Ow what was that for?!"
"That's for being an ass and scaring me!" She cried as she stopped and looked away.
"I'm sorry about that..." He muttered. "Shit looks like they found us."
Rosa turned and looked around, a few people walking around but no one in a black suit and Shades. "So Rosa, you watch anime?"
"...yeah," She answered and his face instantly lit up. Guess he also watched anime.
"Cool," He paused for a moment before he finally spoke. "Have you seen Akira?"
"Of course I have!" Rosa said, at the back of her mind she felt afraid. Agents were following them, an unseen enemy was something Rosa was truly afraid of. But she needed to remain calm, soon enough Project Oracle will allow her to see all her enemies. Every single one. "Fun fact, I watched it without subtitles so I had to download and print out the script in English. So I watched it while reading from the script!"
"Damn Rosa that's insane!" Barry grinned and she couldn't help but much it.
...
...
...
"Barry!" MJ cries as she hugs me. "It's been too long!"
"It has, hasn't it?" I say jokingly. "I see you're as beautiful as ever."
"Oh you," The red head laughs. "Who's you're friend?"
"This," I guesture to Rosa who slowly steps up. "Is Rosa, a very dear friend of mine."
"Hi," Rosa simply says.
"Hi to you to, I guess." MJ says with a nervous chuckle, not really sure what to do next. "Ah you can come in!"
"Thanks," I say as was we enter her house.
"Ma who was at the do-" May pauses as she sees us, more specifically me. During our entire training, not once have I seen her. And neither has she seen me. "Hey Barry, long time." She greets weakly.
"Yeah, you look different." I say as she nervously laughs. May looks different, her hair is cut short and she's slightly taller. You can clearly see her lean muscular form from how tight her old clothes are. The leather jacket, red shirt and blue skinny jeans. On her feet were white and black converse shoes.
"You look different to," May says as she looks me over. "Your hair's longer."
"Yours is shorter," I say as Rosa lets out a snot.
"Damn you've grown," Rosa says as May's eyes narrow. "Did you miss me? Barry sure did. Swept me off my feet and I rode him to town."
"... It's lovely to see you again, Rosa." May says with a forced smile. She then turns to me. "I see you're still hanging out with her."
"That a problem," Yeah, I apologized to you cause I had to. Just don't push it. "Rosa is my friend, and I don't care what anyone else thinks about it.
"B-breakfast! I'm gonna whip up some pancakes!" MJ quickly stepped between us. "Barry, Rosa you can make yourselves at home and May come can help me in the kitchen. Now."
May reluctantly follows her Mother while I lead Rosa to the living Room. "Do you have to do that?" I ask. Grabbing Rosa, I pull her into my body as I let us fall onto the two seater couch. With Rosa now on top of me I begin playing with her hair. Covering my lower face with her red hair, it looked like I was sniffing it. But in reality...
I was whispering a message...
...
...
...
-May-
"What is wrong with you!" Her mother hissed as May flinched.
"But Ma, I've met this woman before. She's so cynical and-
"And she is he's friend! Honestly May," MJ said as she flipped a pancake. "You get one day of vacation to visit someone, anyone and he choose her. Why do you think that is? Why didn't he come here first?" May remained silent as her mother spoke. Why did Barry go see Rosa first instead of her...
Did he not miss her?
"I'm sure he missed us but Rosa seems to have a special place in his heart and we, the closest thing he has to family should support him." MJ said as stacked the pancake on what appeared to be a mountain of pancakes. "And besides, it's safe to say Barry has changed. I think that's the part your struggling with May." MJ gently pulled her daughter into a hug. "I think it's best you move on, the thing you had with Barry before the accident. It's gone."
...
...
...
-A few hours later-
"Hello,"
"Oh my God Natasha!" MJ screamed from the door. "What are you doing here?"
"I was just in the neighborhood and decided to drop in."
"Oh please come in. We were just about to have dinner!"
Today was well spent, Rosa and I spent our time talking about stuff I missed while May spent her time with her mother. Apparently I've missed a few things, Like how Tony Stark just announced he was Ironman just a few months ago. I'm a bit pissed that Shield didn't tell this news but whatever, if they hold information from me I'll do the same. Apparently Rosa also heard stories of a giant green hulk on some forum she's on.
I raise an eyebrow at the form of Black widow stepping into the living room. She was dressed in a black shirt, red jacket on the outside and tight blue jeans that showed off her amazing curves. Her long red hair was tied in a low ponytail and her face had some light makeup.
"Barry," She nods my way as she takes a seat on one of the sofas. "And Rosa, it's the first time we've met...this close."
I could feel Rosa tense at what Widow implied. "Sorry about the high speed beat down I gave you," I say as the Agent laughs.
"Been through a lot worse," She says.
Yeah I bet you have...
"Nat, mind helping me with dinner!" MJ calls as...Nat stands and goes to the kitchen.
"That was one of Shield's top agents and she's very good at her job." I whisper in Rosa's ear. "Just go with it, she must have revealed herself to you for a reason."
"...Yeah but I'm still scared shitless." Rosa answers, as I hold her close.
"Don't worry, project Oracle will solve all our problems..." I mutter.
...
...
...
-May-
"Mistress what are you doing here?" May asked as her... mistress walked into the kitchen.
"Trying to fix your fuck ups, apparently." Widow declared as she leaned against the kitchen counter. "I clearly stated not to talk to Barry like your familiar."
"Yeah you did and I completely fucked it." May said as the widow smiled. "I hate being a teenager..."
"Don't worry you'll grow out of it," Her mistress said.
"Okay enough with all that! You, grab me ten packets of spaghetti!" Her mother roared as she jumped into action. Her Handler doing the same, May grabbed the packs just as Nat poured water in a large pot. "I'll start on the meat balls!"
...
...
...
"How are you doing that?" Rosa asks blankly as I win our fourth round of rock, paper, scissors.
"That...is a secret," I wink as she grumbles. Something's bugging me, a lot. I just feel like I should be talking to someone or rather someones. But who-Shit! I completely forgot about Gwen and Harriet. Fuck! "Be right back." I mutter as I leave Rosa, who was staring at her hand for some reason.
I speed over to the kitchen, stopping next to widow, who doesn't even flinch at my appearance. She just goes back to cutting cabbage. "Can I borrow your phone?" I ask. She raises an eyebrow and then points at her jacket that was folded on top of the fridge. "Thanks..."
"Sure."
I grab the phone and go make my call outside. The phone rings before a voice answers.
"Hello, who am I speaking to?" The voice asks as I smile.
"Hey Harriet, it's Barry." I say as Harriet pauses.
"Barry..."she says blankly.
Okay, she is very angry and has every right to be. "I'm sorry I haven't been calling lately. But I missed you and Gwen."
"That's cool and all but you had me worried. Had me thinking you forgot about me, about us."
"... I've been a bit confused lately, but I've thought about it. I'll tell you when I come back, in person."
"Promise?" she sounds nervous...
"Promise," And I meant it.
"So how's Switzerland?" Yeah so here's the thing. Everyone at school thinks I'm in Switzerland where doctors are running tests on me. Considering I was hit with green lightning and healed in like two weeks. Not only that but my hair turned blonde and I'm tall. And sexy. Also May came for support. That's what Shield came up with...
"Oh you know, doctors groping me and stuff." I say as Harriet laughs. "Listen, I can't talk to Gwen right now so please send her message for me. Tell her I love her and she's dear to me. Tell her to keep being the genius she's ment to be."
"I will,"
"Thank you." I say as we fall silent.
"Barry are you having some kind of surgery or something?" She asks. "Cause you're talking like you're not coming back."
"... Don't worry, I'll back." We fall silent before she speaks.
"I can't wait to see you..."
"Same..."
...
...
...
After my phone call I went back inside and food was being served. All that was missing was wine, which I grabbed from Rosa's storage. So now we have two drank woman laughing themselves off while widow, May and I just watched as we laughed at the side. Soon enough MJ was passed out and Rosa was barely with us. May took her mother to bed while I carried Rosa over to my house. I didn't know where she lived and I was not going to leave her at the store.
I stepped into my house for what felt like the frst time in a long long time. It was clean, cleaner than I left it actually. Maybe shield was sending someone over to clean? Who knows...
I lay Rosa down on my bed and give her a kiss on the forehead. She mumbles something about Lucy before going back to sleep. I stare at her sleeping form for a while before realizing how creepy I'm being and just zoom to the living room. There I take a seat and wait...
Soon enough the front door opens and Black widow steps in, behind her is May who is looking... serious.
I'm pretty sure I locked that door...
"It's time," The super spy says as I stand up. "Let's go."
Welp, I'm off to kill a terrorist in magical land of Afghanistan.
...
...
...
"You kids have graduated and now will receive code names," Fury says as we stand at attention in front of him. Black Widow picked us up from home then took us to my training area. Apparently May's outfit was waiting for her here. We both showered and put on our suits.
May was dressed in a black skin tight suit...that kinda looked like a better version of her regular suit but black. And tighter...my God that suit looked tight. May Parker may be annoying but she has a nice ass and beautiful legs. On her chest was the shield emblem in silver. She also had some silver arm guards and shin guards.
I had told Widow I needed gloves and some black ones were given to me. They were not friction proof though, just combat practical.
Soon enough a helicopter picked us up and took us to the Shield's base, the helicarrier. Here the boss was giving us a last few words.
"Barry Allen, code name Hermes. May Parker, code name Spider." Fury said as we nodded. "Joining you two is Ghost," Out of the Shadows came Ghost, dressed in her white tactical suit.
"Right now we are currently hovering over Afghanistan. A chopper will drop you off a few kilometers outside the city. One of ours is waiting for you there and will lead you to where you're supposed to go." Fury says as he turns around. "They have enhanced humans with abilities we don't know about but at the end of the night the Job should be done." With those as his last words, he leaves as David the tech guy comes in. Giant case in hand as he does...
"Hey, guys!" He greets as he opens it. "So Agent Spider we have some Metallic Shock brass knuckles." He grabs a box and hands it to May. " And Agent Hermes we have a silver .50 Gs pistol." He hands me my box and I open it. Inside the silver pistol stares back at me, I grab it and holster it. I look to the side and see May standing there with no Brass Knuckles.
Where did she put them...
"So...best of luck to you guys!" David waves as he walks off.
"Bye David," I mutter with a wave of my own.
"Let's go," Ghost says as she walks past us. May and I looking at each other before following.
...
...
...
"MH-47 Chinook, that's our ride." Ghost says as we Stare at the large... Chopper. The back was open and a guy was waiting for us.
"Hey, freaks!" Already hate this guy. "Come aboard my little birdie!"
"Who's he?" I whisper to Ghost as we board. The man is white with short black hair, black eyes and was dressed in blue shield tactical suit.
"Haven't a clue..." Ghost lets out as we pass him by.
"Everybody strap in!" he shouts as we take our seats and...strap in. "The ride is gonna be bumpy and cold but we'll get you there in about two hours."
And with that I zone out, he keeps saying more stuff but I can't be bothered with it. I soon drift off to sleep.
Only to be woken by a light blow to the stomach. Ow!
"Wake up, we're here." I Hear Ghost say as I open my eyes.
"Alright freaks! This is your drop zone!" This guy is very annoying. "Put on your parachute and get the fuck off my little birdie!"
May puts on hers while Ghost helps me with mine. Once she's put on hers the cargo door opens up and a rush of air fills the room. Ghost is the first to go, she does a small run before diving out. May and glance at each other before she goes first.
"Is the little freak scared of-" I speed over and punch him in the stomach before making my dive.
This...
This is so not what I was expecting. I'm falling and I can't even feel that I'm falling. My speed Force aura is active at full force so I don't feel the air that should be trying to pull my cheeks off my face. Though I do feel a sense of weightlessness...
The watch on my arm beeps and the Parachute deploys automatically. My body is suddenly jerked into a standing motion and I quickly take control of the Parashot. After some time, my feet touch the ground. I unhook the damn thing just as Ghost and May land. But they went first, how did I land first? Was I falling at super speed? I quickly start folding the Parachute while my partners do the same. The entire area is dark (because it's night) and the only light we have is the full moon above us.
"Hermes, how's your night vision?" Ghost asks as she finishes folding her Parachute.
"It is too dark..." I say as Ghost nods.
"We are supposed to meet up with the information at this location. They must be running late," Ghost reasoned just as Spider perked up.
"I hear footsteps," Spider says as she points. "Coming from that way!"
"Can you determine how many?" Ghost asks as Spider closes her eyes in concentration.
"About five,"
"Keep sharp we don't know who it is yet," Ghost announces as we all stare at the direction Spider pointed out. Sure enough, tiny blue lights could be seen in the distance. Damn did May hear them from that far?! I didn't know her super hearing was...well super. After a few moments of waiting and five men walk up to us. Four were locals and the one in front was American.
"Agents of shield?" He asked as they stopped in front of us.
"Yes, you're the informat?" Ghost asks calmly as the man smiles.
"That's me, names Woody." He says with a smile. "These are my friends." He points to his friends who just stare at us. "Why don't we head over to our camp for some food and warmth. It's fucking freezing out here." Huh? I didn't notice, if anything I feel warm.
The man turns and we silently follow. After about twenty minutes of walking, we find ourselves at the camp. The 'camp' is made up of run-down busted houses like it was a community of some sort. A few fires could be spotted here and there. With people either sleeping nearby or just seated next to the fire for warmth. So I counted fifty people. Men, women, and children. All these people watched silently as we entered the camp.
"If you would kindly follow me to my office," He pointed at a small house with no roof on it. He then turned to his four friends and said- 'Go eat, make sure you're well-rested. We leave in the morning' The men nodded and went off in different directions. We enter the 'office' as Woody goes to one of the bags at the corner of the room. "Anybody want any marshmallows?" Ghost just stares blankly, Spider shakes her head no and I... greedily accept. He throws me a packet that I open and begin munching on.
"The information," Ghost says as Woody takes a seat on a piece...of the house.
"This country is at war, three separate militias. All gunning for power to rule the country and our friend is using this to his advantage. There is a separate group, one that doesn't even belong here. They call themselves the Taliban, which means Student or something like that. The three Generals can take out the Taliban by fighting as one but they hate each other's guts so much they'd rather fight themselves." He says as he spits at the ground. "I mean the Taliban are taking over the country and all they're doing is a fight. Al-Qaeda is supporting the Taliban and has managed to take over the fourth largest city in Afghanistan."
"What about the enhanced?" Ghost asks, Yeah I'm kind of curious too. Plus that information is very vital.
"...I was getting to that," Woody mutters with a glare. "One of the Taliban leaders, Mullah Razzen has a powerful enhanced human protecting him. And so does Osama."
"What are their abilities?"
"I'm not sure, all I've heard are rumors. The locals say the one protecting Razzen can control Sand. And the one protecting Osama...well no one lived long enough to talk about him. Or her, not sure what it is." Woody shrugs. "Dude save some for the fire!"
"No," I blankly say as munch on my snack, nobody comes between me and my sugar. But to me, these people sound like Mutants. But then I could be wrong.
"Razzen and Osama are due for a meet up at the gate today," Woody says as he looks at his watch. "Damn it's past midnight. Look Razzen will only have half of his guards with him, we'll raise some hell and split them up. Razzen and Osama are paranoid, they don't communicate through technology. The US hasn't joined yet and they're scared, as they rightfully should. Once I attack, Razzen will rush to tell Osama the US has joined the fight. He will lead you to where Osama is and you guys can take him out. Granted we survive the enhanced."
"Solid plan," Ghost nods as Woody chuckles.
"Thanks, I've had time to plan."
"Do you have a map of the area?" I ask as Woody goes to one of the bags in the corner. The plan relies highly on me, We have to be there when Woody attacks Razzen so that we can follow him. Plus I think we're gonna have to step in when the enhanced with the Razzen attack. The only Mutant I know of that comes from Afghanistan is...Dust. Some girl that could turn into sand, I don't remember her name cause I was too busy reading Civil war and hating on Carol Danvers.
Woody hands me the map and I look at it. It's the same one I read before coming here. The point of attack has been marked, it's not too far away from the city, but not too close as well. The city wouldn't hear the gunfire unless everyone in it kept quiet. Also, the distance is well chosen in the sense that it would be better for Razzen to run towards the city rather than a bailout. Ghost was right, this is a solid plan.
"So we attack in the morning, around 7:00 am," Woody says. "When he's not murdering educated women the guys pretty punctual." He shrugs and I could see May clenching her fists. What's that all about?
"How many men do you have for the attack?" Ghost asks.
"About twenty," He says nonchalantly. "I was sent here to see what was going on, gather information, and head back. But what I saw...what I've seen. I stayed so I can do my part in making this place better."
This guy has balls of steel...
"How many does Razzen carry with him?" Ghost asks as Woody rubs his hair.
"He has about five thousand. But his personal guard has about a hundred. He doesn't expect anyone to attack him on the way to 'The holy city's as they call it." He says grimly. "We just need to send the bastard running and you guys can do your part."
"...You realize this is suicide, right?" May speaks up for the first time.
"Well ma'am, it's part of the job." He answers with a smirk. "I don't know about you guys but I'm cold as fuck. I'll go sit by the fire if y'all want me." He says as pulls out two packets of Mashmallow. "If anyone wants some, you know where to find me." he says teasingly. Truly a man after my own heart. He leaves as we look at each other.
"The plan is solid and I see little to no chance of failure," Ghost says. "Apart from the informat and his men dying..."
Way to go Ava...
"Is there a way to adjust the plan so they don't die?" May asked as Ghost remains silent, she's probably running the numbers.
"Yes but our Target would get away, or worse. The mission would take way too long." Ghost says as grabs my hand.
"...And the hand-holding?" May asks as stares at us. Damn, I can't read May with that mask on.
"None of your concern," Ghost easily says. We all stay silent for a while before the silence begins to get awkward with how May's blank face is just staring at me.
"Sooo I'm just gonna go get some Mashmallows outside," I say while pulling Ghost with me. She doesn't protest as we go outside, May just silently follows.
"Hey over here!" Woody yells as walk to where he is. "Glad you could join me!" Woody says as we seat near the fire. I'm on the middle with Ghost on my right side and Spider on my left. Woody was facing us and surprisingly he was alone. "Mashmello?"
"Yes please!" I throws me a packet and I take moment to wonder were the fuck he got them from. "How did you get these anyway?"
"Working for shield has it's perks," Woody says with a shrug. "I ask for weapons, food and first aid kits. All that is given to me."
"Cool," I say as munch on my soft treat.
"Why were you alone? It kinda seems like you're Mr popular around here." May asks, yeah I was also wondering about that.
"I let the guys sleep among their people, one last time." Woody says as he gives a sad smile. "Come morning we'll split up from the main group. The women will lead the children and elderly to a city owned by one of the Generals. Dostum is a good man, although he has many many flows."
"Wait they're going out there by themselves?!" May exclaims in shock. I kinda saw that coming, all the men will be fighting. "But what if they are attacked!"
"Look ma'am, everyone here knows what there going into. They understand that to kill the snake you have to cut off it's head. Osama needs to fall now, before he's given a chance to do even worse." Woody says, grim look on his face. "It ain't pretty but that's all we have."
"I...I just wish there was a way we could go about this without you and your men dying." May says and I instantly feel like an asshole. I really didn't think about Woody and his men. I just accepted that they were going to die to help with my mission.
"Trust, if there was another way we would've done it," Woody says as we all watch the fire. The wind blows by and Woody shivers. "Damn I wish I had one of your suits, with the heat warmers and cooling whatnots."
I guess I know why I'm not cold, though it was a secondary power or something Speed force related.
"You're not a shield agent, are you?" Ghost asks as Woody shakes his head.
"No ma'am, not officially. I was CIA, but when an information-gathering mission went wrong the agency abandoned me. After a year of surviving, I stumbled upon an Agent of the shield. He put in a good word for me and Shield became my sponsor. They offered to pull me out but after a year of living here and seeing the hell Taliban and Al-Qaeda caused. I couldn't find it in me to go home..." Woody was a badass...
A few more stories later and Woody excused himself. I saw him get dragged away by some young woman, Ma man. Soon enough, Ghost was using my thighs as a pillow. Couldn't tell whether she was asleep or not...
"Barry?" May calls as she moves closer to me. "I'm scared."
I remember the last letter to Rosa I wrote...
"Me too," I simply say. I'm not afraid of dying but rather the person I will become we I take someone's life.
May moves in and I hug her into my side. "We'll have each other, that's all that matters."
"You promise to be there for me?" May asks and I could hear the vulnerability in her voice.
"As long as you're there for me,"
"I will always be there when you need me, always."
"So will I,"
Ten minutes passed and May fell asleep. I just stared at the fire, soon the fire weathered away and only ashes remained. Hours later, people started moving. I checked my watch and it was about 4 am. The Five men, the women, children, and the elderly formed a group and walked off. They didn't waste any time saying goodbyes and crying, they just simply walked off. Guess they said their goodbyes last night...
I Stayed up, was because I couldn't sleep or didn't want to sleep. I don't know. Two hours passed and it was 6 am. Woody came out of his 'office' and began walking people up. He didn't shout or make a loud noise. He simply went up to the sleeping man and gently shook him up. He did that to everyone, even the ones sleeping indoors. It took him thirty minutes but every man was up and about. Soon they were all dressed in a bulletproof vest and Woody was dressed in his soldier get up. Rather than the normal green cameo, he wore a dirty white (?) one. It did blend well with the environment.
I shook my partners and instantly woke up.
Woody stood before, M16 in hand and Twenty soldiers at his back.
"Good luck my friends," He says as he salutes. I simply hold out my hand, he stares at it shocked before shaking it. He turns to Ghost and she gives him a nod. At least she didn't just stare blankly. Woody turns to May and she hugs him tightly. Even going as far as to leave him off the ground. Damn, she's Strong...
With that he marched off, his 20 soldiers following behind. With the odds against them, the March off to fight. For their people and their country. To save people that would never even hear of this, most of the people they were fighting for didn't even know them.
True Heroes...
"...When the fight starts we wait for Razzen to run and we follow." Ghost says as we watch the men go.
Ghost takes off her mask and May gasps. She steps to the side and begins doing stretches.
"Did you know she was hot?" May whispers in my ear.
"Yes, yes I did."
Soon enough May and I join. It's a nice distraction. A few minutes into our stretching, May abruptly stops and stands up straight.
"It's Started," She says softly as Ghost turns to me.
I nod and Speed over to where the ambush was staged.
...
...
...
Loud. Multiple gunshots rang out, I silently watched as Woody and his men took out three of the five tracks.
BOOM
BOOM
BOOM
The tracks went flying in blazing chunks of metal that rained down on Razzen's forces. The pathway must have been rigged with explosives. The smoke everywhere, the confused Taliban are quickly shot down. Some hide behind one of the trucks and begin firing back. Suddenly, a man jumps out of the second truck. He was dressed in a sleeveless black visit with baggy cameo pants. His face was covered by a black face mask. His long brown dirty hair reaching his shoulders. The man holds out his hand as the sand below shots up and forms a wall before him. The wall of sand stops the bullets fired his way, he pulls his arm back, and then he punches it forward. Sending the wall of send crushing into a few men. He forms another wall that covers the second and first trucks.
That must be Razzen's personal bodyguard. The wall falls and the man is nowhere to be seen. But in his place are four guys that start shooting. The first track starts, speeding towards the city. Razzen must have used the wall of sand as cover to get into the first truck.
He was on the move, the plan worked.
I spare a glance at the twenty-one and they are holding their own. I could go down there and speed them to safety but I don't have the time. I speed back to the camp, the girls not even reacting to me suddenly appearing.
"Razzen is on the move, he has an enhanced with him. The bastard can control Sand." I say as the two nods.
"So we follow behind until he reaches the gate," I say. I Ghost and Spider goes to my sides, I grab them by their sides and speed off. The city isn't far, I stop just a few miles away and we watch the gate. The city has walls, giant walls protecting it. A few trucks and soldiers are waiting at the gate. A man with a beard and white robes steps out of one of the trucks and behind him is a tall dark-skinned woman. Another person steps out from the back of the truck and it's... it's a young girl. Maybe thirteen or fourteen years old. But I don't care about that right now, the bastard has shown himself and we get over with killing him so I can go help Woody and his men.
"Those must be the enhanced," Ghost says, I can't help but feel I know who those two are. Two minutes later and Razzen's truck arrives. "Now's our chance, Spider I need you to block the gate with one of the trucks. We attack with full force, strike hard and go for the kill."
I grab them and speed over to the gate. As soon as I stop, the girls spring into action. Before any gun could raise, I was already yanking it out of its owner. Everyone was frozen as I simply move around them. I grab everyone's guns, including the woman's pistol that was removing from her holster. The Young girl didn't have any visible weapon on her she stayed perfectly still.
I put the pile of weapons behind us just as I stop running.
"What the fuck is this!" The woman growls as she glares at us. "Laura, be a good dog and fetch me their heads!" She pounces as Metal claws pop out of her knuckles. Each hand has two metal claws coming out of it. Ghost quickly intercepts, she disappears and appears in front of the girl. Delivering an insane uppercut that sent Laura back. So X23? That means these people are Mutants and not enhanced!
"Careful Ghost she's dangerous!" I yell, really hope she heard me. Next to me, May runs to the nearest truck and lifts it. She then throws the truck at the gate. The damn thing explodes on impact!
BOOM
The hell...
It shouldn't have exploded.
"...Maybe throw another one!" I say helpfully as May runs over to another track.
My hand goes up and catches the knife aimed for my head. Once upon a time that would have worked on me...
"Just who the hell are you!?" The dark-skinned woman says as she approaches. The men are all struck with confusion as to why they have no guns and why trucks are flying over their heads.
Not gonna lie, Kimura's fucking hot. She has long black hair that flows to her back, Green eyes that go well with her dark skin. She's pretty muscular, dressed in a black tank top and some tight leather pants...
Who the fuck wears leather to the fucking desert! I look to the side and I see X-23 Dressed in a tank top and leather pants.
... so kimura has some combat boots to finish off the look.
"Who sent you?" She growls out and I blankly stare at her. The question she is how Osama managed to get these two as his bodyguards!
"Wouldn't you like to know?" I say with a smirk. She growls before charging at me, Kimura clears the distance between us and starts throwing fast punches. Not fast enough as I easily dodge all of them.
"Stop moving damn it!" She growls, throws punch after punch. "Fucking Mutant!"
Okay, that's it, I see an opening and nail her in the gut. Kimura is shoved back a bit but otherwise seems fine. Ow, that felt like hitting a brick wall.
"Is that all you got?" Kimura smirks smugly.
"No," I say as speed behind her and grab her by the back of her head. "This is."
I Speed over to the Wall and just slam her face-first into it. She's supposed to be indestructible and shows as her face breaks into the wall. I pull her out and inspect her face. She's fine if a bit dazed. A press her face into the wall and I start running. Her face digs into the wall as I speed along with it. We round the entire city...three times before she's out cold. Seems a bit brutal but the bitch had it coming.
Plus I need her out of the picture for what I have planned...
Dragging her by the hair, I toss her Laura's way as the clone easily Dodges. The shock on her once blank face. Ghost capitalizes by punching her in the face. I quickly grab her and speed away.
"Laura," I say as I toss on the ground. She quickly stands up and goes into a stance. "If I wanted you dead you'd be dead." That's true, I think. Not sure if she can grow her head back.
"What do you want," Laura says, her guard still up.
"To make a deal."
...

-Spider-
Fuck! May cursed as she hid behind an overturned truck. The first few trucks exploded against the gate, it took a few people with it as well as the gate. Now an army was pouring out of the place, covering Osama as he ran. Ghost had her hands full, phasing and teleporting around the place. Trying to make her way towards the gates. May hid behind the truck to avoid the bullets, super-strong did not mean bulletproof. She needed an edge, she needed...to more. She needs to take out the soldiers and clear a path for Ghost. She took In a deep breath and calmed herself. She jumped, the force of her jump cracking the ground beneath. And for a split second she could see everything, she saw where everyone was and how to get to them without dying. Her hands shot out webs to a near enemy's eyes, blinding him. She landed on the ground and quickly moved around, dodging the bullets shot at her. It was like she was in a trance, her body and mind moved around the battlefield in fluid motion she didn't even know she could do. The first guy she reached was punched so hard his head twisted in a loud crack. The next guy she kicked away and the other she chokes slammed so hard the ground cracked.
Just as more enemies filled out from the gate. As they ran towards her and Ghost, They all exploded in a shower of blood and Gore! Holy shit what the fuck was that!?
"Fuck, I think I swallowed a tooth." Covered in blood and Gore was Hermes.
...
...
...
...That was unpleasant, not because of the blood and gore. But rather how easy it was. Seven guys dead, I simply ran straight through them. Speeding into the gate, literally just dodging people. Osama had got far, his men kept on filling the road and I couldn't just phase through...
So I did the next best thing...
...
...
...
Dear Allah what the fuck was that?!
Blood and meat chunks fell on him, they covered the sky for a split second before raining down on him. His mouth was wide with horror as this happened. A piece of something fell into it and he had to cough it out as it almost choked him. Bending down, the terrorist caught sight of what almost killed him.
A dick...
A piece of someone's dick was in his mouth, It had even reached his throat!
Dear God, he just deepthroated someone!
"Damn that's all kinds of fucked up." The... monster said as it approached him. "I don't think your ten virgins will be happy about you swallowing dick." it laughed. "I take that as a sign, the world is punishing you for your sins. First I've robbed you of your way to heaven and now I'll take your life."
"Please give me a chance to repent!" He couldn't die just after having a man's penis in his mouth!
"Nope!"
He was suddenly grabbed and he felt true pain...
...
...
...
I had dragged Osama with me, at the speed of sound. He screamed for a bit before his body just fell apart, leaving a trail of blood and organs in the city.
He's Dead, I killed him and I feel nothing at all.
...
...
...
Razzen had somehow survived all the chaos. All his men dead, it was just him on his knees. Muttering something in a language that was foreign to The Spider.
Ghost, her white outfit now dirty with blood and grim slow-walked towards them. "He's begging for Mercy," she said as Spider's eyes widened. She took off her mask and looked the bastard in the eye.
"Mercy, you didn't show it to that innocent woman and her husband." May Mayday Parker said as tears flowed from her eyes. She wiped her tears and reared back her arm back. "Sorry, I'm all out of Mercy!" Her fist shot forward and lodged itself into Razzen's head. His brains blow out from the back of his head. She pulled it out and the body fell to the ground.
He's Dead, she'd killed him and she felt nothing...
...
...
...
He was dead.
But then what did I expect?
I was hoping by some miracle that he would be alive, that they would make it home. They did not. They were butchered and piled up in a heap. The surviving Taliban must have gone back for back up. I glance at the bloody disfigured face of Woody. I only identify him by his unique combat gear.
I only knew him for a few hours and he was already a dear friend.
Sparing the brave twenty-one a last look, I take a breath and speed to the camp. Laura Kinney AKA X-23 jumps as I appear in front of her. In her hands was a packet of Mashmallos, the face she was making was of that of a child caught with their hand in the Cookie Jar.
"Did you think over my proposal?" I ask as she nods. "And?"
"The Facility will find me," She says blankly. "They have the resources, so my answer is no."
"So you won't work for me, huh?" I ask.
"Not unless you have someone stronger than The facility?" The clone shrugs and goes back to eating her snack-my snacks...
The Facility, the people who cloned The Wolverine. And sold super-powered bodyguards and assassins to anyone with the money. These guys don't have friends in high places, they are the friends in high places. Kimura escaped with the help of the Sand guy from before. That one was on me, I got distracted with scheming and whatnot. These guys are no joke, they're like Hydra...
...I just got an idea.
A very bad idea...
"...What about Shield?" If I want Laura Kinney, this is the only way. Originally, I was gonna have her meet me in New York. She would use the money I Gathered in the city to do this. But Laura is rightfully scared of The Facility. They would find her the moment she tried escaping and would torture her far worse than they already do. Convincing Laura to Join me was easy, The Facility let Kimura torture her and she doesn't like that. Plus she's not fond of killing...
Laura wants to join my side but she can't risk it. The Facility can easily find her...
Unless I have someone more powerful than the Facility...
Shield...
I have shield...
The black-haired girl thinks it through for a moment before nodding. "They let Kimura torture and kill my mother." She growls as I nod. "Kimura might come for me by herself though. She's kinda obsessed with me."
Yeah, that could be a problem...
But the risk is worth it the reward.
"First we have to come up with a solid plan so we can be incomplete contact. Cause Fury might just lock you up, bleed you of information, have you kill some people for him, and then strap you to a table and see what makes you tick."
"I don't want that...
"Yeah me too..."
What should I do?
...
...
...
"Laura, how's your acting?"
"Pretty good," She says, black eyebrow raised in question. "Why?"
...
...
...
-Two hours later-
And here we all sat in silence. May was hugging her legs as she rocks back and forth a bit. I was seated next to a quiet Laura and Ghost was on the lookout. A freaked out May had demanded why Laura was here and I simply told her that I had captured Laura. And that Laura is a girl with superpowers that the big bad guys forced to work for them. I convinced her to join shield and she accepted, only if we get her away from the bad people. Technically it's true...
May bought it and just decided to just sit by herself. I get how she feels honestly, that's why Ghost is on the lookout and Laura is barely making a sound. I wanted silence and I let the two know.
Right now we are waiting for nightfall so Shield can come and pick us up corvetlly. So we have just been lazing around the camp. The city has fallen and the few remaining survivors have fleed. So the entire city is left empty, in fact, the entire area has been abandoned. It's just us four.
A few hours pass and I go for a run.
I came back with two goats...
...I had gone to check up on the city and while playing around in it I found a few animals. There was some day-old bread as well so I took the goats. The cows looked tempting but I couldn't carry them. So I carried two goats and some bread. The girls looked surprised at this...well May was shocked, Ava just blinked at me and Laura offered to kill and skin them. She quickly took charge and asked for a fire going and some water. I went back to the city and I found some large water containers (with water in them) and a wheelbarrow. What did I do with them? Well, you do the math. The girls had found some firewood laying around and lit a fire while Laura cut the goat's balls off...while the thing was alive.
Ouch...
She Said something about the meat not testing right unless you start balls first. Who knew the weapon X clone was well versed in the art of killing and skinning a goat. Not me...
With our bellies filled with bread and roosted goat, we waited for night and it soon came. May had fallen asleep and Ghost had gotten tired of lookout duty and just sat next to me. Laura was doing push-ups at the side...
When night fell, the area was bathed in darkness with only the small fire that we had going illuminating the camp.
"Something's coming!" May suddenly awakened and got to her feet. We all did the same, our guards up. Soon there was a sound...like a helicopter?
"Take cover, we don't know what it is." Ghost says as we all nod. Everyone quickly finds a hiding spot in the old houses. Soon the sounds got louder and a bright light covered the area. The thing was a chopper and it had landed in the middle of camp...
Ghost quickly stepped out of her hiding spot and begun walking towards the Chopper. Guess it's one of ours...
Soon May, Laura and I stepped out and followed Ghost.
"Sup Freaks!"
This asshole...
The back of the chopper had opened and the asshole waiting for us. We all just passed him by silently. I really wasn't in the mood for this guy and so was everyone else. We just took our seats and strapped in. May took off her mask and just stared in front of her blankly. The asshole, I don't know his name nor do I want to know it. Seemed to take long look at us and walked away silently. He probably went to the cockpit...
The ride home was...
I don't really know.
I fell asleep on the way.
...
...

END
A/N Hey guys! This chapter was supposed to be out a while back but I just kept on adding more. I've never done death scenes so...
I don't have much to say right now but so here's some random shit.
So May killed someone...
So did Barry!
Their reactions will be in the next chapter, promise. So we meet a new addition to the Harem-cough!- Team Barry seems to be making. Laura Kinney!
Did anyone like what I did to Kimura? The better question did you even read it properly through my shitty writing?!
Also, why the fuck did Fury give a speedster, a fucking gun?! Wouldn't a blade work better?!
Why am I asking you guys when I'm the author?!
okay, no more playing! Real stuff now...
Why the fuck does everyone think I make every single female character I write bisexual?! I don't! Susan Storm? When did that happen!? MJ? Black Widow? Harriet? Gwen has a crush on Norma cause teenage years are a time of confusion and mixed feelings. Also, cause it amused me.
Rosa was clearly stated! Yes, she is, in fact, an Original Character, and yea she is best girl. Woody is also an OC...
Which girls did I make bi by accident? Pick one and let's fight it out in the review section.
Okay, let's get real. The MC a is whining Edgelord is somewhat true. I want people to see him grow up, to move from a guy complaining about being in the Marvel-verse to a guy realizing that it's now real life. It's now his real life.
As for him losing to Hawkeye, Barry Allen lost to Green Arrow once! And also Batman! And Mr. Freeze, and he's just a random dude with an ice beam gun! I wanted him to feel a sense of 'okay I can be beaten' ya know. But that won't happen again...ever.
Also, shout to SoTM-Valad for the Name Hermes!
A lot of people gave very good suggestions, examples given; Mercury, Silver, and Godspeed...
Godspeed...
I thought we discussed this...
Moving on. Pairings! In real life, you have many options and I mean many options to choose from. It's mistaking love for lust...
He will have dates, he will like people, and...heartbreaks. Can't wait to write that...
Let's talk about Barry joining shield...
Hero work is expensive! You don't just wake and bam you want to be a vigilante! People might get hurt, property damage, and let's not forget the government! Do you think the government will let him run around and do his own thing? You have to have an edge, have something that will make the government fear you, and get out of your way! Like a bold guy that read minds and knows all your secrets...
But don't worry the scene will help cool down those Nick Fury haters out there...
Bonus Scene.
"Nickolaus Joseph Fury,"
The director of Shield blinked as he found himself in a black void. What. The. Fuck. Standing before him was a bold lady dressed in yellow robes.
"You know my name but I don't know yours," Fury said calmly as the woman smiled warmly. Inside Nick Fury was panicking, how did he get here?
"I am a being known as the Ancient One," The now named Ancient One replied. "My job is quite the same as yours only on a large scale, a very large scale."
"I don't quite follow..."
"While you protect the Earth, I protect the multiverse. I make sure beings that are a threat to the Multiverse are put down, by any means necessary." The woman said.
"And what do you want with me?" Fury asked, he wasn't sure if she was lying or not but after what he'd seen, who fucking knew.
"I want you to give me Barry Allen, Ava Starr, and Laura Kinney."
"I'm afraid I can't do that, the Earth needs them." who was Laura Kinney?
"So does the Multiverse, and Earth is one of the many residents of it." The woman replied with her smile still present.
"...why didn't you just grab them?" She clearly could, after all, he was in the heart of shield and the blink of an eye found himself here.
"Because you would spend most of your resources looking for them and it would be a waste of your time. People in our line of work don't have time to waste..." That was true. "So how about a trade?"
"For what?" Ava Starr and Barry Allen are vital for shield. Clearly, the woman knew this, what could she have that would change his mind.
"Information about you little organization," She said, smile ever-present. "They are in fact Hydra and have solid proof. Besides, I only want to teach Barry and Ava control. To help them reach their full potential."
"... I'm listening,"
"Good, for a moment there I actually thought you would refuse. I was going to torture you..." The Ancient one said with a laugh.
That sounds like something he'd do to get his way...
...
...
...
He blinked as he looked around, the earpiece in his ear buzzed with static before Maria Hills loud yell almost made him jump.
Considering where he was now that would have been bad...
"Sir are you there! Sir!"
Fury brought his shaking hand up to his ear. "I'm here..."
"Thank God you're alright! You just disappeared and...sir why does your tracker say you're in the Empire State building?!"
"I'm actually on top of the damn thing..." Fury said and quickly regretted it as Hill let out an ear splitting WHAT!!! He was glad she was worried but couldn't she be just a tiny bit quieter. "It's getting chilly up here, so hurry up with the extraction if you please."
"Right away sir!"
This was a power play. A warning saying if he backs out of their agreement then he is fucked. No matter where he tried runs or hides. She would find him...
Their agreement was that she would take them after the Halem incident. Whatever that meant...
For the first time in a long time, Nick Fury felt true fear.
A/N So...The number of favs and follows has large difference as of the time I'm writing this. Seems more people are inclined to follow this story and see where it goes before making a full commitment. I can respect that.
So yeah...
Favorite, Follow and Review! Looking forward to those reviews and black lashes...
