Chapter 9
I do not own The Avengers or Spiderman in any way.
Madison glanced out the window of her new apartment. She had been so sure about moving to D.C. and now she wasn't. She was so used to looking out her window and seeing Peter swinging by in his Spiderman suit or yellow taxis driving past. She missed New York.
There were times she wished she could contact Steve, but Fury had advised her not to.
But Madison had started wearing the necklace Steve gave her.
She had been to the Triskelion several times and nearly ran into Steve. She usually had to duck into someone's office and watch him walk past.
By the end of the first month, Madison was starting to get cabin fever. She didn't know anyone here and Fury didn't need her for a mission.
"How are you holding up, Baby Bird?" her father asked her one day.
"I'm going crazy! All I do is sit around the apartment all day and do nothing", she said, "I want to go on a mission! I thought that's what field agents did!"
"After I became a field agent, I didn't go on a mission for 6 months", he told her.
Madison groaned. "Your time will come, Baby Bird. You just have to be patient", he said.
After 4 months of being in D.C., Fury approached Madison with a mission.
She entered Fury's office and found Natasha there also. "Director?" she asked him.
"One of our agents has been taken hostage. Your mission is to make sure no one stands in Captain Rogers' way of his mission", Fury said.
The breath left Madison's body.
"Can you do that Agent Barton?" he asked her.
"Yes sir", she said.
"Bullet in her Daddy's gun" should be up sometime this weekend, hopefully.
