Okay, guys, I'm back with another chapter! I am so, so, so, sooo excited that I finally have this ready for you all. I'm sorry for the wait, but the computer broke down, so we had to get a new one, and then I had literally absolutely NO inspiration for this chapter. Like, who knows how to write down an escape plan from a HYDRA base? (Don't answer that, I'm sure plenty of people do)

Aaaand, because nobody gave me any ideas to work with, I had to come up with an idea of my own, and, if anybody knew who I was, they would agree with me that I gotta have help when creating plot ideas. But, onto other good news!

Thank You:

Horsemadgirl for following and favoriting this story!

Disclaimer: Maybe if I wrote the characters in another language it would work…? Jk, I don't own Avengers, because the SUPER AWESOME MARVEL does, and I could never be as genius as them!

Enjoy your chapter, my readers! *grins evilly*


Chapter 6

Mikkie POV

"We. Are. Gonna. Break. Out. And. You. CANNOT. Stop. Us."

Almost immediately after I said that, the doors burst open, and guards came in, which caused chaos and panic to ensue. Me, Eiko, and Scribble tried to keep everyone from screaming, and eventually gathered everyone in a circle, the guards watching us closely. It's not like they came in and started shooting everybody who freaked out (although I suspect they wouldn't hesitate to), it's more like they came in shouting and yelling at everybody to get down, and then lined up all along the walls, guns ready, eyeing us carefully. Honestly, it all just seemed, to me, at least, to be a big ol' show of power.

"Mikkie Sanderson, come with us. If you do not, well," the guard speaking pointed his gun at Scribble and Eiko while the others pointed theirs at various prisoners, "I guess your friends will have to pay the price."

The other prisoners looked fearful and started to run around frantically. At this, the guards gave a sadistic grin. Oh, come on. Can't you people learn some manners?

"Shh, shh, everyone, calm down, we'll be alright. Don't worry, stay calm, shh." We tried telling people. After a couple minutes of it not working, Eiko gave up.

"Everybody, calm down and stop crying." She said. "Freaking out won't help. At all." Some of the creatures/people looked a little offended, but didn't say anything because they knew she was right.

"Eiko-chan, what will become of us?" someone asked. I noticed she was Japanese, with black hair reaching her shoulder, a streak of pink along the side. Hmm… I wonder what she can do?

"I dunno, Mariko. I dunno." When Eiko said this, everyone got worried looks on their faces. Eiko, Scribble, and I looked at each other. We nodded to each other, and spoke, one at a time.

"I won't come with you, and my friends won't pay the price. If you try to make them pay, then you will instead." I stated with a controlled, even tone that had a hidden warning in it, like: if you so much as think about hurting them, I will make sure you can't go anywhere without having to constantly look over your shoulder.

"I don't think you understand how this little game works, prisoner." He said that last word with distaste.

"No," Eiko continued for me, "I don't think you know how this 'little game' works. Especially if you call it a game, because it's not a game. It's a fight to the finish."

"Hey, shut it, cat-eyes, or else." He let the threat hang in the air.

"Or else what, exactly?" Eiko shot back. Eiko, I sure hope you know what you're doing, otherwise we're in for much more trouble than we can handle. Than you can handle. Than… that's a funny word… focus, Mikkie, focus!

"Mikkie Sanderson, you're coming with us." The guard ignored her comeback and continued, as if he'd had a lot of sass from her before and knew exactly how to handle it. He probably has… I thought to myself.

"Oh, I don't think that will be happening." Scribble spoke this time. "Because, you see, you don't understand who we are, what we are, and what we can do."

"And by the time you figure it out," I said as we moved to make a triangle border around the group of prisoners.

"It will be too late." Eiko finished for me.

"Because we," Scribble told them.

"We are one." We three spoke at the same time, and then the guards started shooting.


Right when the guards started shooting, Eiko, Scribble, and I thrust out our hands to the sides, and power shot out in a blaze of white light, surrounding the little group(in a triangle, of course), and then I got a terrible feeling of certainty that the guards would shoot us and we would fall down dead and then everyone else would be unprotected. The thought of something like that happening gave me an extra burst of power. I heard everyone's gasps and guessed the same thing happened with Eiko and Scribble too.

I watched, terrified out of my mind, but determined to hold off the guards for as long as possible, as the guards got smart and trained their guns on us three. I expected to be shot though, and fall to the ground, dead. What I absolutely did not expect was for the bullets to hit me, and fall on the ground. I could barely feel them touching me. When I looked down at myself, I found out why.

Okay, no joke, my body looked like it was about to explode from sparkles. Covering my body was this sparkly, light purple aura, and when I looked at Eiko and Scribble, I noticed they looked the same, just with different colors. Scribble had a (surprise surprise) sparkly light pink aura covering her, and Eiko had a sparkly light blue one. I couldn't dwell on it for long though, as the guards started firing at my face. Which, for anybody who is wondering, is not a pleasant experience.

The bullets thudded against my face, and some even tried hitting my eyes. I guess it was more of a weird experience, although I wouldn't want it to happen again. I tried to ignore the pounding on my face (more like dull thuds, but whatever) as I thought of ideas to move from this strange predicament to freedom. So far, nothing was coming up.

Just then probably the most craziest idea ever popped into my brain. I did a quick mental once over of it, and when I thought it was as good as it would ever be, I set it in motion.

"I thought I told you all that if you tried to make my friends pay, then you would instead!" I called out to them over the shooting. I really hope this works. I thought to myself, and then did something I never ever EVER wanna do again.

I risked everybody's lives.

I did this sorta whoosh sign thingy with my arms, creating a wide arc of bright white energy as I swung my arms to thr front of me, towards the guards. Juckily for me, it worked.

The energy surged, slamming the guards unconscious and into the walls. I am soooo glad that my wishes were fulfilled, and that the prisoners room was next to the outside. The wall crumbled to the ground (there seriously must have been, like, six feet of wall there!), and the alarm sounded. That didn't matter though.

We were free.


MWUAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAAAAA! Talk about a cliffhanger, right?!

If you want me to post the next chapter, I need, like, at least 3 reviews. Why not more? Because so far not many people have followed, so for now, I need 3 reviews until I will update again.

Btw, have any of you read the Unwanteds series, by Lisa McMann? The latest book came out, and it was AMAZING! Anyways, I need at least 3 reviews to post the next chapter!

Review, Follow, Favorite, and all that Jazz! XD
