I Liiiiiiivvvvveeee! Yes, I'm back, after not updating this all summer. I have a good excuse though. I went on a bunch of camping/hiking, family, and girls trips. I was completely swamped, and now I'm back in school. Yay.

"Who are you and why are you following me?" Matt demanded of the dark blonde-haired man.
The man in question looked shocked. "You are one stealthy bastard, aren't you kid?"
"Don't make me ask you again." Matt said darkly. "Because then I'll be angry, and you won't like men when I'm angry." Okay, so that was sort of a bluff. There was no way he would start rampaging around like Andrew, but the guy didn't really need to know that.
Instead of doing something, like actually answering the damn question, the guy just gave a small chuckle. "You sound just like my teammate." He said.
Matt raised an eyebrow. "You still haven't answered my first question, and now I have another for you; who are you, why are you following me, and what does your team want with me?"
The man sighed and pressed a finger to his ear. "I, uh, found the kid, 'Tasha." He said. Matt figured that he had a com hidden on him.
He couldn't hear whoever this 'Tasha' was, but he suspected that she was now chewing out her comrade (teammate?) for letting the, as the man so eloquently put, target find him first.
"Geeze, 'Tash! It's not my fault! I told you, this guy has some funky super-senses going on." He nodded slightly as the other person spoke. "Uh huh… yeah, send a Quinjet, we're heading to New York. Bye." He turned to Matt with an accusing look. "You got me in trouble!" he whined with the maturity of a child.
Matt stared at him. "Seriously, you still haven't answered my questions! And why are you acting like a kid?"
"Another question, really?"
"Just. Answer. Them."
"How about we go somewhere where we won't be overheard?" The man suggested.
Matt rolled his eyes, but used his powers to move both himself and the stranger to a parking lot at an abandoned building. "Now tell me." He said in a low voice.
The man sighed. "Code name's Hawkeye, you don't get to know my civilian name 'till my boss lets you, I'm following you because it's my job, and my team," here he gave a dramatic pause and smirked, "Are the Avengers."
A blank stare from Matt.
Hawkeye pouted slightly. "Seriously? You don't know who the Avengers are?"
Matt shook his head, "No, I mean, I know who they are, but you don't look much like a superhero."
His mouth quirked. "Not a superhero. Just work with 'em. Oh, and my behavior? I think Tony's rubbing off on me."
Matt's reply was interrupted by a rumbling sound, like a very large engine. A strange looking plane-thing landed a few feet away from them, creating a breeze that ruffled their hair.
"I'm not going with you." Matt said.
"Do you want answers?" Hawkeye said.
Matt eyed him carefully. "What do you mean?"
Hawkeye shrugged. "Come with us and find out."
As Steve walked past the window of an electronics store, he stopped. Every television in the window display was showing a clip on the news, but that's not what made Steve stare. No, it was because he recognized the two boys on the screen. Matt and Andrew.
Oh, shit.
"Still no signs of the so-called 'super humans' that terrorized downtown Seattle, though we have spoken with numerous sources." The female news announcer said in a voice over as the clip continued to play.
Steve didn't hear the rest of what she was saying, because he was in complete shock. Matt and Andrew had attacked Seattle?!
"It's terrible, isn't it?" a woman with long, blonde hair said. She wore dark blue pants and a light blue long-sleeved shirt with a dark vest over the top.
Steve jumped. He hadn't noticed that she'd been standing beside him for a while now. "Um, yeah, it is."
"Yeah, it's a shame they had to use their powers to do all that," the woman waved her hand vaguely at the debris that was now being shown on screen. She turned to face Steve and held out her right hand. "Bobbie Morse."
Steve took her hand cautiously. "Steve."
Bobbi smirked. "What, no last name?"
"Not anymore."
She shrugged. "Hey, I can relate."
Steve's brow furrowed. "What do you mean?"
"Y'know, secrecy, hiding, all that fun stuff." She checked a watch on her left wrist that Steve hadn't noticed before. "Oh, I gotta run," she said, starting to walk backwards so that she could still converse with Steve. "And don't worry, I'll see you again, Steve Montgomery!"
"Wait!" Steve called after her, "How do you know my…"
She was gone.
If you know who Bobbi is, you get a virtual cookie. What did you think of the chapter? Please let me know by reviewing, favoriting, and following... *heh heh, my evil plan is working... NO, I DIDN'T SAY ANYTHING! LIES!
Uh, I might be a bit crazy...
R&R!
