Disclaimer: I do not own Skye, Phil Coulson, Melinda May, Grant Ward, or FitzSimmons. I only own the variation I have created off of this very popular idea.
I firstly must thank Neeeeeal who, as the author of Turn Back Time, has done such a very interesting and lovely job on their story I wanted to give my attempt of it a go.
However, because I cannot find B.J. Britt's wiki page or his age, I'm going with Ward. But that's not the only reason. It's because with the Hydra plot, I see no room or logical way for this story to make sense. So... It's AUish. Ward isn't hydra. Yay! Because I really did love Ward.
Warning, MAY include Avengers. I upped the rating for my own comfort.
Hawk-Eye drank from his thermos, staring at the man in front of him. He had unruly black hair, his circular, vaguely Harry Potter like, glasses slipping down his nose and dark green eyes. Hawk-Eye glanced up at the door, waiting for Maria Hill, growing rather impatient as he looked over the new victim of interrogation.
"'Damn, Where's Hill? I've been waiting for forty minutes' Hawk-Eye sighed and decided to start the interrogation without her. Grabbing the subjects file, he briefly read it and took a seat across from him, kicking his feet up onto the table. After Dr. Verde's escape attempt they took extra measures and precautions to keeping them restrained.
"Dr. Zeilony is it?" Hawk-Eye got a small nod from the man, he looked rather young, unlike Dr. Verde, he looked like he was around Hill's age.
"Ok Doc, I'm just gonna ask you a few questions. Answer them truthfully," Hawk-Eye continues, looking at the man.
"Ok then Doc, tell me, have you ever been acquainted with Jonathan Nash?"
Dr. Zeilony took a moment away before responding, "I've seen him talking to Dr. Verde, but I've never actually spoken to him."
"Have you seen him talking to anyone else?"
"No... Only Dr. Verde."
Barton sighed, that wasn't very helpful. If he didn't know Nash he likely didn't know any of his acquaintances.
"Ok then, why don't you tell me how you got recruited?"
Dr. Zeilony stayed silent. Hawk-Eye scowled and dropped his feet leaning forward, "Look. You're gonna need to talk at some point ok?"
Still getting no answer, Hawk-Eye stood, slowly walking around Dr. Zeilony. The man turned to watch the Avenger, suddenly hearing the crisp, slicing sound of two knifes together. A chill went down the scientist's spine.
"I-I got offered the job after I graduated college!" Dr. Zeilony stuttered, looking at him.
"A job? To do what? And by who?" But once again, Hawk-eye was met with nothing but silence, "Ok, play it that way."
"Sorry for keeping you... Waiting..." Maria Hill turned, seeing Dr. Zeilony hanging upside down form the ceiling, while Hawk-Eye sat eating a sandwich. She blinked, rather confused before turning to look at Clint.
"About time," He says.
"Barton, what did you do?" Maria asked.
"Interrogation stalled a bit and I got a bit creative."
Maria face palmed and sighed, "Barton, you just can't-"
"Hey, it's your fault leaving me unsupervised," Clint pointed out, "And I got a lot more answers then you would?"
"Oh really?"
"Yo Doc, how'd you get recruited?" Hawk-Eye asks with a smirk.
"I had just graduated college, a man had entered my dorm while I was packing and offered me the job with enough money for me to pay off my college expenses in only three years. The man never gave me a name only referred to himself as Commander, nothing more nothing less."
"What does this Commander look like?" Barton asked cooly, not at all fazed by the expressions of disappointment, anger, and shock coming from Maria.
"He looked around his early forties, red receding hair, Scottish accent, tall, big nose and dark brown eyes."
Barton raised an eyebrow at Maria, waiting. But the Deputy Director said nothing except, "Barton get him down."
"Fine..." The assassin sighed, cutting the rope that held Dr. Zeilony, causing him to fall. The man groaned, deciding to just stay down.
"Now," Barton forced him up and back into the chair, "What exactly were you doing at the facility?"
"I-I can't say..." Barton scowled at his answer.
"Why not?" Maria asked.
"Please.. Please! If I betray the oath I took-"
"What oath?"
"The oath to never speak of what went down in that facility to anyone else. I am forbidden to speak of it!" Dr. Zeilony seemed a bit hysterical.
"Relax Dr. Zeilony, relax," Maria says, easing the scientist to relax and calm down.
"Please..." The scientist begged, "Please, if I betray the oath... Please I'm going to face dire consequences!"
Maria sighed, glaring at Hawk-Eye before going to try and calm the scientist, "Dr. Zeilony please calm down... Your interrogation is done for the day. Please just calm down."
Chapter Fourteen...
Now, I do ask that you all review when you can. I'd like some ideas, sort of like Drabble ideas... Nothing specifically linked to a specific character but like... A Sick day or something. Ooh... The very Idea I got for this chapter came while writing this bold part.
Also I ask that you all pay close attention to the names of the Scientist.
This is my last day of summer and then I am back to school. I hope you enjoy this chapter, I couldn't help but make Clint a tiny bit mischievous. The poor Scientist, he's startled. I wonder what he's so scared for?
Also, for everyone doing the ASL Ice Bucket Challenge, congratulations. Immediately as I type this I'm getting a very devious idea for another chapter. But seriously, congratulations for having the guts to do it, the idea of cold water freaks me out inside, and so far, no one I know has dared me.
