Sokovia

"Yeah if it wasn't for these 2 fine men-" gesturing towards the 2 behind him "I would have been with our founder in the afterlife."

Strucker smirked "Do you want to see the progress we have made on our newest subject?"

One of the men behind him flinched while List smiled "I would love to see."

5 Hours Before...

Ward Kara Bakshi followed closely behind List and his personal Hydra guard rapidly running up the frozen stairs connecting to a private jet that was now covered in snow. Ward and the personal guard headed towards the cockpit while the others moved towards their selective chairs buckling in as the jet started to slowly ascend with some slight turbulence. Ward started the intercom system announcing it was free to move around causing the 3 to unbuckle standing up from their seats as Ward and the Guard made their way towards the group.

Ward stood right behind the guard as List anxiously looked at him "Status?"

The guard fixed his posture standing tall and speaking with respect "The destination has been set and we are about 4-6 hours out before landing on site sir!"

List nodded his slowly head a little less anxious "Good report back for anything."

The Guard bowed "Yes sir!" before slowly turning around making his way back to the cockpit but freezing in place next to Ward after feeling a sharp pain causing him to hunch forward. With his dying eyes, he looked up to see Ward smirking as he twisted the knife killing the man instantly before quickly falling face down with blood pouring all over the floor.

List jumped up in shock trying to find some sort of weapon but instead he stared horrified down the barrel of Kara's pistol. Kara glared at him before blinking twice with her glare fading into a smirk as List's hands raised

"What is the meaning of this... EXPLAIN!?" They all smiled at him at him with Ward shrugging his shoulders "Just trying to make amends."

List opened his mouth to retort but not able to get a word out before the piercing sound of a gun shot echoed across the jet with List slowly falling over with a hole in his head. Before he could fully fall over however Bakshi caught him holding a towel over the hole to stop the excess bleeding.

Ward looked over towards Kara "Did you get it?"

Kara nodded putting 2 fingers behind her ear causing her face to morph into List face before asking in his voice "I don't know you tell me?"

Ward looked pleased gesturing for Kara to turn it off for the time being while Bakshi wrapped the towel around List's head. Kara now back to herself turned over towards Bakshi "Can you go in the back and get the clothes ready?"

Bakshi pulled the body over his back "Of course what do you want me to do with the bodies afterwards?" gesturing towards the other one next to Ward's feet.

Ward rolled his eyes "Dump them both out, the sooner the better. Your Compliance will be rewarded."

Bakshi nodded his head "Happy to comply..." before grabbing the guard's body by the leg dragging him along causing his blood stain to trail under him until Kara and Ward were finally left alone.

They stood silent in place before Ward slightly smirked "I never thought it would ever get this quiet with him around..." before lowering his head down clearly thinking things through causing Kara to step forward with concern all over her face, "Are you sure you want to go through with this?"

Ward slightly raised his head confused "Yeah why wouldn't I be?"

Kara rolled her eyes "I don't know maybe it has something to do with the fact the girl we are going to save shot you 4 times."

Ward shook his head "It's not about that... you saw the kid they were experimenting on, I can't let them do the same thing to Skye or brainwash her like what they did to you. Even if she hates me I couldn't live with myself knowing Hydra is using her."

Kara visibly flinched of the thought crossing her arms sighing before adding, "There is also the factor of List and Strucker were only experimenting on powered people which means if they have a interest in Skye it must be because she now has powers."

Ward slowly nodded "Yeah still working on that part, no one at SHIELD mentioned anything about her before the mission but I bet it happened at Puerto Rico..." lowering his head down in realization.

Kara opened her mouth to respond but got cut off by Bakshi who peaked his head through the door "The clothes are ready for you Kara and the bodies are gone."

Ward weakly smiled "Go get ready we need Strucker to believe its List for this plan to work. I will go manually fly and see if we can get there faster..." he slowly started walking towards the cockpit but got stopped by Kara grabbing his arm turning him back around.

Kara smiled with worry on her face, "Grant, We will get through this alright?"

Ward nodded "Of course..." leaving Kara's hold before slowing walking back towards the cockpit. Kara sighed knowing he needed to be alone right now turning around making her way towards the back with Bakshi as she began working on her disguise.

Present Time

As Ward Bakshi List and Strucker walked down the dimly lit tunnels, Ward was mentally preparing himself trying not to immediately lash out at Strucker for what they could have done to her.

As they walked inside the grey and white patterned room nicknamed The Vault Ward instantly started clenching his fist so tight trying not to murder Strucker right there. Skye was laying against the wall wired up two different machines inside a glass-chamber. Her outfit was all black stealth suit, silver gauntlets and a silver mask around her mouth.

Bakshi and Ward stayed behind while List and Strucker walked closer to the chamber with List slowly marveling it like it was a trophy.

Strucker chuckled watching List "Yea she is a perfect, put up a real good fight but eventually gave in... we put her through your expertly mastered Burstein Process and the results are flawless however she is still currently in the resting stage but should be done soon. While you were away our scientists made those gauntlets and they directly harness her unique power and multiply it capabilities."

List finished examining the case but kept a straight face looking towards Strucker "What are her powers exactly?"

Strucker raised an eye confused by the question, "Vibration manipulation... everything alright Dr?"

List quickly nodded his head "Yeah I think so... just a bit exhausted from today's event over at the arctic."

Strucker slowly nodding his head opening his mouth but the rooms attention was drawn away by the alarm's blaring and the rooms color flashing red. A scientist ran towards them holding a tablet screaming, "SIR WE HAVE A MAJOR PROBLEM!"

Strucker quickly walked towards the scientist "Explain!"

The scientist gulped as the 4 men glared at him "The avengers they are here..." the glares quickly turned to shocked expressions with Strucker stomping his foot on the ground "Damn it they most be after the scepter..." he briefly looked at the chamber containing Skye before tilting his head towards her "What is the status on her?"

The scientist shook his head "Another 20 minutes..."

Strucker slightly growled under his teeth before looking towards List "We can't let the avengers destroy all the work we have a accomplished... we have to stall for time."

So what you guys think? Next chapter will be the Avengers raid and maybe some Skye action? I apologize if its a little short, I have been recovering from a stomach surgery but I wanted to get you guys something. I never knew recovering would be easy but seeing all the love and support you guys give makes it all worth it.
