Ok, chapter 2. Again Sorry for any mistakes, and I send a special thanks to
Elizabeth Mui for helping me out on this. Also, I was thinking about adding
some more changes to the first chapter so yeah.
Disclaimer- I own nothing but Eve.
"Tourniquet, this is an easy mission. At my command, you will bomb the base, giving our men a chance to enter the jail and retrieve our lost co- operatives." Viper explained. Tourniquet nodded.
It had been eight months since Eve AKA Tourniquet had joined Hydra. Eight months since she sent her brothers and sisters away. Eight months since her parents were killed. Eight months since she got her memory erased.
She had learned to use her powers well. She could fly, throw nuclear bombs, send poisoned radiation waves, and shoot nuclear beams from her hands with ease. She was almost unstoppable. With all emotion erased from her mind, she was the ultimate human bomb.
She was wearing a black and dark blue Hydra uniform. It was just like X23's but with a dark blue shirt instead of green.
Tourniquet slowly flew towards direction of the base. She turned on her earpiece, waiting for Hydra's orders.
"On my mark... NOW!" Hydra ordered.
"Here goes nothing." She thought. Tourniquet started throwing her many bluish greenish blackish bombs at the base. They all exploded, causing the roof of the base to collapse.
"Kill anyone that comes out of there alive!" Viper ordered.
She flew in closer, into the slowly burning building. She liked fire; it was like magic calling out to her, slowly entrancing her. She took out a knife and pulled up her left sleeve, adding a new cut to the many already there. As the pain suddenly coursed through her body, she snapped out of her reverie and reached her senses.
"Oh yeah, kill the survivors." She said. She started forward but was hit on the head with a piece of the falling roof. She almost passed out but she forced herself to get out of there. Slowly she started flying away, passing out only 80 feet from the Hydra base.
A few hours later
When she woke up, she found that her head was bandaged up. All of a sudden, a stream of memories flew threw her head. 'What the hell?' she thought. She had remembered the most important parts of her life. But most importantly, she remembered that she was Eve.
Viper stormed in, pissed as hell. "What do you think you were doing?! You were supposed to kill all the survivors! This was an easy mission!" she screamed.
Eve turned to look at her. She then remembered everything.
"Tourniquet! Listen to me!" Viper ordered.
She then pulled Viper up by her shirt collar. "My name is Eve!" she retaliated, throwing Viper back into the electrical machines causing the chemicals from the machines to spill all over her. Eve only smiled.
The doctors began running away like little cowards as Viper screamed bloody murder. Two guards came rushing in with tranquilizers but Eve shot out a wave of radiation killing them both. She then created a bomb and threw it at nearby wall, which luckily for her, led directly outside. She then flew as fast as she could out of there. She didn't know where she was. All she could remember was living in Washington and something to do with four little kids. She was happy she was free but she knew that Hydra would hunt her down.
After flying around for a few hours, she got tired and stopped at a 7 Eleven. She walked in to notice an 18-year-old guy at the counter. She remembered she didn't have any money and was still in her training clothes. She then went behind the counter without permission and took the fist aid kit. The guy behind the counter just stood, staring. She then went into the bathroom.
Eve hadn't seen herself in a mirror for about eight months now. She took the tweezers and plucked her eyebrows. She then cut the sleeves of her shirt, huge holes at the knees of her pants, and the fingers off her gloves. She then took her knotted and frizzy hair out of the messy ponytail it was in and began to cut it. Her hair, which was once up to her waist, was now cut above her jaw line. She left her bangs intact that fell two inches past her jaw line. Eve then left the bathroom returned the first aid kit to the cashier. He was still a bit confused.
"Thanks. Hey, can you help me out?" she asked the guy. "I haven't eaten anything for a long time and I don't have any money, so can you-"
"I'm sorry miss, but I can't do that," he interrupted.
"Ok then, but you just got Tourniquet mad," she smiled.
"Who's Tourniquet?" the man asked, a bit nervously.
Eve laughed. Her friends and her used to pretend they were crazy and had imaginary friends, just for laughs.
"Oh, Tourniquet gets mad. When she gets mad, she escapes and I can't control her." Eve leaned into the counter, trying to scare the man. She then made her eyes turn ice blue on silver and made many of her little bombs started exploding around them. The guy so got freaked out, he ran out of the store.
'Being crazy sure had its benefits.' she thought. She began to raid the refrigerators. She reached for the ice cream sandwiches. "Damn, I haven't had one if these in a long time." She ate two boxes of the twelve-pack sandwiches. When she had just finished her third bag of Corn Nuts, trucks from an asylum came.
"Come out," said one of the doctors. "We know you're in there. Don't be afraid; we are here to help you."
'Just great.' Eve thought. 'Wait. I can hide out with them now until I know what to do. I just won't tell them who I really am. Then Hydra won't be able to find me.'
Eve sauntered out. "Hi everybody!" she said, acting all hyper, "Will you be the fathers of my love children?"
'God I hope this works,' she thought. 'I sound so pathetic.'
One of the doctors approached her and said to her, "We. Are. Your. Friends. We. Are. Here. To. Help. You. Little. Girl. What. Is. Your. Name?"
'I'm crazy, not mentally challenged, you dumb shit.' She thought, 'Ok, then. Let the fun begin.'
She began to sniffle. "My name is Annie... I don't remember a lot. I remember that I was with the monster... but these bad men killed him and the witch. They took me and I had to hurt people or they wouldn't feed me," she sobbed.
"Don't worry. If you stay with us, we'll help you and feed you. And we'll never let the bad men come and hurt you anymore. Here, put on this nice white coat, it will help protect you from the bad men," replied a doctor.
"Yay!" Eve cheered, inwardly groaning. How lame could you get? A nice white coat? Puh-lease. Could that have screamed 'straitjacket' any louder?
They loaded her into the back of the truck. She looked through the little barred window, at the men in the front seats.
"Are we going to the land of the magic white coats?" Eve asked innocently. The driver started going faster. Eve laughed inside. It was going to be fun bugging the shit out of them.
"Hey, do you guys know that Oprah is actually a man who thinks he's a horse who thinks he's a penguin? Speaking of penguins, the penguins steal my sanity one by one. I think they are neat. I once saw a penguin trip another penguin and-"
"SHUT THE FUCK UP!" yelled the driver.
"Make me! You're one of them! You're the penguin Satan sent to come and hurt me!" she started screaming, "And then you'll be sorry because Tourniquet will get mad and I can't control her!"
At that, the man riding shotgun took out a tranquilizer gun and shot her.
"That oughta shut her up," snickered the driver.
"You guys are no fun. Go to hell!" she managed to spit out before passing out.
At the asylum
Eve was sitting in white room, wearing with her nice white coat. She looked up to see some doctors coming in. 'Time to have some more fun...'
She stood up and walked up to the youngest one that looked to be 20 years old. He appeared to be a doctor in training. All the doctors gasped. She went face to face with him, inches away from a kiss when,
"Oh sick!!" the young doctor yelled.
She had stuck her tongue out and spat in his face like a little kid. Out of instinct, the guards had shot another tranquilizer dart at her.
"What is it with tranquilizers and you people?" she bit out, before passing out.
A a year later
'OK, I'm still at the asylum and Hydra hasn't found me, always a good thing. But I've used up all my tricks, and quite frankly, this shit is getting boring.' Eve thought.
At that moment, the doctors walked in. They still didn't know Eve was a mutant and they still thought her name was Annie.
"Annie, we are going to take you to another home now. Don't worry, you'll make plenty of new friends there," said her usual doctor, Dr. Philips.
"You know what Doctor." Eve began, "I'm not insane; I just acted like this so the people that were after me wouldn't find me. I am a mutant. My real name is Eve and I also am known as Tourniquet. If you will please do me a favor and let me go, no one will get hurt," she said.
"Oh, you're just scared of moving." he replied as he reached for his sedating needle. "Now don't worry, this will make you feel all better."
Eve smiled. Using her powers, she managed to free her arms by blowing the buckles off her strait jacket. Her eyes turned ice blue on silver as she floated up.
"This is what happens when people don't listen to me! They either get hurt, or if they're lucky... they DIE!" She created a bomb and threw it in front of the doctors making them fall back. She made another one and threw it at the ceiling, exploding on impact. She flew away, again not knowing where she was or where to go.
After two hours of flying, she turned around to see if anyone was chasing her. Unfortunately, this meant she didn't notice the tree that she gracefully collided into headfirst.
"Damn you to hell, Eve!" she cursed herself as she fell to the ground. She slowly got up and put her hand to her head. "Great, I'm bleeding," she said. "And I'm talking to myself. Shit. I've been spending too much time at that asylum."
Eve slowly walked around. She noticed she was in a park. There were little kids screaming and running about. By now her head felt like spontaneously combusting and the little screaming hellions weren't helping. She kept on walking; nobody seemed to notice her. She had gotten to a small hill, where she saw a young couple arguing near the stream at the bottom. They looked kind of cute together: the curvy auburn haired girl with white bangs and a definite Mississippi accent (as if no one could tell by her screaming) and the smirking Cajun in trench coat and shades, but this was not the time for that. They suddenly stopped arguing and looked up.
"You two mind helping a girl out?" she mumbled before passing out. Eve fell and rolled down the hill, bumping into the southern girl.
"What's wrong with her, Rogue?" the Cajun asked worriedly, using the girl's given name for once.
"She cracked her head opened! We need to take her to the institute! Hank can help her. Don't just stand there; Help me pick her up!" Rogue cried.
"Whatever you want, chere." Remy grinned, helping her pick up the unconscious girl.
