Chapter 1
Rey's Point of View: I was sitting in a café in Lagos, Nigeria. I took a sip of my coffee to blend in to the people here and to try and seem normal.
But I am anything but normal. Growing up I was trained by my family to become the perfect S.H.I.E.L.D Agent, because most of my whole family was a part of S.H.I.E.L.D and I had a legacy to live up to. I lost my parents at a young though due to an attack made by some paid assassins. Now I fight to make sure something like that will never happen again. I fight so people don't have to, so people can feel safe. I barely can remember them but it still hurts, growing up with no one there for you.
I'm on a mission, with some of the Avengers to help stop an armed robbery that supposedly will be happening any minute today. This particular robbery is so special because we got an inside tip that Crossbones, or Brock Rumlow would be here, and we have been after him for months. I quickly stole another glance and looked over at the bank and nothing.
"What do you see?" Steve asked through my comm. I focused and looked again, looking for any ways of escape, cameras, absolutely anything that would stop this attack.
"Standard guard team. Small arms and quiet street. It makes for a good target." I said and casually looked back over.
"There's an ATM machine in the south corner which means - " I cut Steve off, "there are cameras." I said and knew that they wouldn't care if they were seen.
"Both cross streets are one-way." Cap said and I sighed. "That means any possible escape routes are now compromised. That could mean civilian casualties."
"Right..." Steve said. He was across the street right above the bank in a hotel watching the streets. He had a view of me, incase anything snuck up on me, he could warn me.
I heard a loud trash truck and turned around. I watched it hold up traffic and studied it a bit more. "It's not trash day in this city guys." I said and stood up slamming twenty dollars, which was more than enough for what I had ordered, but I placed it on the counter and I watched the garbage truck speed up once the man driving saw me and he slammed through a gate down the street. I heard screams of terrified civilians and busted into action.
"This was only a set up! Everyone go!" I yelled as they smashed the gate to the The Institute for Infectious Disease. Cap jumped out the window and landed on the ground beside me. We started running towards the building and Sam flew by. He grabbed Steve and flew him to the scene, I continued running.
Once I got there guards were fleeing the building because a toxic gas had been released. "Natasha, I'll need your help!" I said through the comm. "On my way." She said and I heard her huffing, and an engine rev, hopefully meaning she was almost here.

Usually nothing eventful ever happened at the Institute for Infectious Disease except boring shifts for the guards.
They had weapons, like guns, and had been trained to use them but never had to before. The buildings vaults held some biological and chemical agents that were deadly. That's why they were locked away from the world forever.
The guards started to fight the attackers until they released the gas which killed them instantly. So they started running for their lives.
They brushed passed me and I noticed one of my enemies for years. He had betrayed a lot of people at S.H.I.E.L.D and I was one of them.
In front of me stood Brock Rumlow. In a new suit, I smirked and grabbed my favorite weapons ever. They were batons pretty much with electricity on the ends of them. I twirled them in my hands and started walking towards Crossbones.
They even had the boomerang effect and could come back to me. "Crossbones!" I shouted and he turned his head. "I don't have time for this! Someone take her out." He yelled and I pressed a button on my comm. "Crossbones is on his way inside!"
The guards ran over to me and I fought them off easily. I swiftly blocked their punches then jumped on one and kicked the other behind him. I then grabbed his arm and flipped him on is back. I zapped both of them with by batons and they passed out.
"They've got the bio agent." Steve said through the comm device and we heard Natasha say "on it." Then a motorcycle engine roar. She brushed passed me, chasing after the truck with the payload on it.
I saw their getaway trucks rushing towards me so jumped up and grabbed the rear view mirror and instantly regretted it because the driver and passenger started to fire their guns at me.
I managed to pull myself onto the roof and didn't have a problem knocking bad guy after bad guy off the roof. It was like my old training. But I was so busy I didn't see Crossbones. He grabbed me from behind, grabbing my hair and pulled me to his chest. "Long time no see." He laughed and I tried tasering him with my batons but he laughed. "I don't work like that no more." He teased and threw them off the truck.
He kicked me into the back of the truck and closed the roof, after throwing in a grenade. I opened the back of the truck and jumped out right as the explosion went off. That was way to close for me.
I sat up and looked around to be in a very busy market place with worried civilians. This was he city that the Hulk had almost destroyed about a year ago. "Get to cover!" Wanda yelled. She flew beside me and helped me up.
"Spread out. Find which one really has the payload." Cap shouted through the comms. I noticed some guards changing out of their armor to normal civilian clothes. "I got the ones on the left" I shouted
I rushed after one through the busy streets and cornered him. I jumped over tiny little stands and tables. I caught up to one and I ripped his bag off him and it was empty. I looked up and he was nervous, until he looked behind me, I turned around swiftly and the man grabbed my hand.
"Give it up." I said and kneed him in his sensitive spot. Then I kicked the man behind me. I grabbed his bag and it was there.
"I got it guys" I said and doctors and scientists ran up to me and placed it in a special container. They handed it back to me and I handed it to Sam. "Get this to authorities."
I ran back to where Steve was and he was fighting Crossbones. Steve let his guard down and it was because Crossbones was saying something to him. This wasn't like Steve, he doesn't ever let his guard down so this must be important.
I listened closely and was very shocked Crossbones even knew all of this information.
"You know, he knew you." taunted Crossbones. "What did you say?" Steve asked and I was too interested to break them up.
"Your pal. Your buddy. Your Bucky, he remembers you." Steve's face dropped when he said that and Crossbones smirked.
"He remembered you, got all weepy about it, wanted me to tell Rogers that you got to do what you got to do, then we threw his brain back in a blender." I knew that this hit Steve where it hurts, I know how much Bucky means to him, I've met him a few times but he was trying to kill me, so, we haven't met officially.
Steve was too distracted to notice Crossbones click a button on his suit. It was rigged with explosives. Steve was shocked and I couldn't do anything.
Steve covered himself for the blast, but nothing happened. He looked being him to see Wanda holding it with her powers. "I.... I can't hold it much longer." She said and I ran over and grabbed Cap. He was too distracted to help himself.
Wanda dropped to her knees and with her last amounts of energy she forced the blast into the air to explode away from everyone else.
But, it went off coarse and crashed into a hotel. Debrees flew everywhere and it blew a huge hole in the building.
Wanda gasped and watched with horror at what she's done.
