In two days she was healed almost completely and she went to visit Peggy, the old woman asked about the bruising on her jaw but Beth side tracked her, played it down as a mission injury and had the woman tell her some more stories of the good old days.
This one was about Steve and the howling commandos, yet another story shed heard a million times but only got better with age.
She stayed with the woman a good three or four hours, wondering in the small part of her mind if shed turn out like this someday, outliving everyone she knew and finding herself alone.
She couldn't help feeling that Peggy was lucky in a way shed never be.
When she finally left she took her time going home, then she took notice of the black SUV following her she sped up a little and it disappeared so she shrugged it off she was just being paranoid.
At an empty intersection it reappeared but she got a much closer look at it because it slammed into the side of the Ferrari.
She car skidded then flipped a few times, leaving her disoriented she was laying on the roof of the car but things hurt so bad she reached to the center counsel and searched glass bits cutting her skin.
She pressed the button she found and it started flashing, looking out the window she saw someone approaching and slammed her feet into the door as hard as she could, the crumbled metal slammed into the person.
She crawled out of the car and looked around as she got to her feet slowly.
People were surrounding her, she clenched her bloodied fist as the first one attacked, she punched him in the face but something white hot went through her from behind, and she spun on the man with a shock baton.
She fought her way out of the circle she didn't know how and she was sure if she held a light bulb at the very moment it would turn on, but she got out and started toured home.
She was fast faster than any of them and when the car exploded she was happy, the self-destruct worked perfect.
She was almost home but something stopped her, she screamed in pain when something shot through her leg, looking down when she fell she saw it was a spear of some kind going right through her calf.
She didn't think it broke anything but she couldn't think when a sudden weight stepped in her back holding her down.
She barely managed to turn her head and glared at the dark figure "you're gonna regret this" she swore and the figure grinned at her "no I won't"
Then darkness was all she saw.
