Hello, I'm Bella Stone and this is the story of how I became an Avenger. First things first you should know a few things about me.

My birthday is May 6, and I'm 15 years old. I live in Queens, and I have powers...Yes, you read that correctly. Me, a 15 year old girl in high school has powers. This is my story, and this is where it begins.

2008

I was a happy 8 year old girl. I lived with my two parents, and I had a pretty basic life. Little did I know that was all going to change very soon.

I had just gotten home from school, and my parents had gotten off work earlier that day. My parents worked for the police and they were working hard on a case.

"I'm home!" I shout across the living room, throwing my backpack off to the side.

My mom looked to me and said, "Hello honey, how was your day?"

"It was good! My class got a fish and we named him Billy!"

"That's wonderful sweetheart! Your Dad and I..."

We didn't get to finish the conversation as banging was heard outside of the front door. My father walked up to the door and looked through the hole. Alarm flashed in his eyes and he ran towards me, "Sweetie, we need you to hide like in hide and seek okay? Mommy and Daddy will find you in a bit"

I nodded my head in confusion. My mom gave me a quick hug in assurance and said, "Everything is going to be okay." How wrong that statement was, I didn't know at the time.

I ran towards my favorite hiding space (under the clothes in the corner of my closet).

All of a sudden I heard a huge crash, and two gunshots echo through the house. I kept my composure somewhat, but I was still shaking from the reverberating sound. I started breathing heavily as I could footsteps come closer to me. I could hear lots of doors opening, until I heard the door of my closet open.

I stiffened immediately, but the strangers grabbed me and threw me over their shoulders as I struggled. I was screaming the entire way to their vehicle after I saw my parents dead bodies in the middle of my living room floor. The only thing I noticed about my captors were the weird octopus logo on their suits.

2009

I had been kept in Hydra for 1 year and it was a mystery of how I survived that long. The Hydra agents had been experimenting on me to no avail. I learned a lot cooped up in the Hydra base. It turns out my parents were secretly S.H.I.E.L.D agents, whatever those are. I was part of the experiment 'FireIce'. It wasn't a very creative name seeing as it was meant to give me fire and ice powers. I was slowly planning an escape from this horrific place.

2012

I had officially turned 12 the other day, so my plan was officially ready. I have changed to a great extent the 4 years I've been kept here. Their expirements ended up working, and they gave me fire and water/ ice powers. The Hydra agents don't know this to my advantage though. My morals have changed and I might as well be a completely new person. As soon as I escape, I plan on doing everything in my power to make sure no one has to endure what I have gone through.

I started my plan by freezing my handcuffs, and shaking them off. I knew I wasn't going to be able to escape the compound without a distraction, so I set it on fire. I realize this wasn't a very smart idea considering it would kill plenty of people, but if these Hydra agents were going to kill and torture more people, I wanted to put an end to it. I found my way out of the fire and walked to a near gas station to patch myself up. I didn't have any money on me, and I wasn't going to steal, so I decided to use the supplies in the bathroom to clean myself up. I looked pretty bad with scars all down my arms from where they injected me with the stuff that gave me my powers, and drew my blood. After I was done, I walked to my older brother's apartment which happened to be in the area.

I opened the door and said, "Andrew? Are you home?"

A man with light brown hair and piercing blue eyes stared at me, recognition flashing across his face. No more than 5 seconds later my big brother ran towards me and held me in his arms.

After a few seconds of silence, he started bombarding me with questions, "Are you okay? How are you here? You went missing after our parents died..."

I cut him off by raising my hand in the air, " I'm alive. I walked here and I had to run away for my safety." A look of confusion passed his face, "Safety? What do you mean?"

I figured he didn't know the real reason behind our parents death so I asked, " What happened to mom and dad?"

"They were shot, and you were presumed kidnapped." Well that's about right.

"I just ran away from the people who killed our parents." We stood in silence for a moment before Andrew spoke, "You've grown up so much Bella."

I smiled hearing my name being said seeing as how I haven't heard it in 4 years. They only ever called me experiment FireIce.

"Being on the run does that to you." He went in and gave me another hug, "I've missed you so much." I hugged him back, "Me too, me too."
