"We want you to join the Avengers." Nick Fury was standing at the end of a long desk which the rest of the Avengers were sat around. "Miss Wilson, are you listening?"
She wasn't. Instead she was spinning in circles on her chair.
"Jade!"
Yep, that's me. Jade Wilson. Now you may wondering, how did a nice place like this end up in a girl like me. Well let me take you back a few hours. To when I was minding my own business, reading my horoscope in a super secret bad guy warehouse.
"You know as far as super secret bases go, this isn't bad." Jade stated, not looking up from her magazine.
Every guard in the building spun around, guns immediately out in front of them and pointed at the intruder.
"Now boys, is that any way to greet a lady?" Jade shut her magazine and crossed her legs.
"Who are you? How did you get in here?"
"My name is Jade. Hi, nice to meet you." She waved her hand, wiggling her fingers as them with a cheeky smile on her face. "And I came in the back. No pun intended."
Jade jumped off the crates she was currently sitting on, the swords strapped to her back clanged together as her feet hit the ground.
"You think this place would be more secure," She ran her finger along one of the cargo boxes. "But I guess that just makes things easier for me."
Jade grabbed the gun in the hands of the white haired man facing her and thrust it upwards. The barrel collided with his face and he stumbled backwards, the gun slipping out of his hands and into hers. Jades arm wrapped around his neck and she spun him round, holding him in front of her like a shield.
"Now, let's get down to business shall we? You're gonna tell me where your boss is or the My Chemical Romance reject here, gets it." She pressed the gun against the side of his head.
"Why would we give you anything?" A black haired man stated, his accent thick. "Look around sweetheart, you're outnumbered." The man held his arms out and gestured around the room. "Six of us, one of you."
"Make that five." Jade pulled the trigger and the man in front of her fell to the floor. Bullets began to fly towards her and she ducked behind a crate. "Cue the music."
Jade jumped out from behind the box and rolled forward across the ground. As she got to her feet she pulled the trigger of the gun, the bullet hit the forehead of one of the guards and he dropped to floor.
"Four."
Bullets flew past her as she rolled again, taking cover behind a large crate. The crate splintered as it got shredded by bullets, until the firing stopped.
"Time to get messy." Jade jumped over the box, somersaulting in the air as she pulled the swords off her back.
As soon as she landed on her feet one sword flew through the air and landed in the chest of a guard.
"Three."
Another guard lunged at her but she stepped to the side and swiped her sword out in front of her. The guard fell to his knees and clutched his bleeding stomach.
"Two."
Another guard moved towards her, a gun held out in front of him. With one quick motion she sliced off his hand which fell to the floor, the fingers still wrapped around the gun. The man cried and fell to his knees clutching his bleeding stump. Jade spun her sword around her arm before sticking the blade through his throat.
"One."
Jade pulled out the blade and flicked the blood off the end. She moved towards the last man who was currently fumbling for the keys to his van. Jade kicked him in the back and his face slammed against the cold.
"What's that you said about me being outnumbered?" She grinned, her face covered in blood splatter, as she spun the guard round and slammed his back against the van. "Now, tell me. Where. Is. Your. Boss?"
"Fuck you." He spat.
"In your dreams." Jade kneed him between the legs. "I'll ask you again. Where is Novikov?" She threw her sword aside and gripped his throat.
"I'll die before I tell you shit." He gasped as her fingers dug into his neck.
"Well as much as I'd like to see that, I need you to give him a message." She leaned closer to his face. "You tell him I'm coming for him."
Jade threw the man aside and kicked him in the ass as he fell. He clumsily got to his feet and began to run towards the exit.
"God, you even run like a fucking pervert!" She called after him before picking up her sword and placing it on her back.
She walked towards the dead guards, pulling her other sword out of one of their chests. She wiped the blood on his pants before placing it back in its sheathe. Jade noticed the guard whose stomach she'd cut was slowly crawling away.
"Oh look, still alive." She grabbed a gun from atop one of the crates and shot him in the back of the head.
She looked up at a security camera above a door to her right. She smiled before aiming her gun at it. "Hope you enjoyed the show." She pulled the trigger then tossed the gun aside.
Jade walked towards the exit, kicking a crate over as she did. A rocket launcher rolled out of the now open crate. She stepped over it.
Someone will deal with that.
She didn't want their cargo, she wanted their boss.
As she stepped outside she was greeted by the Avengers, standing in a line, weapons raised. Police and SWAT teams behind them.
"Not what I expected." Came a voice from inside an Iron suit.
One officer had the guard she let go in handcuffs and was loading him into a van.
"No, no. You need to let him go. I need him to pass on my threat to his boss." She said pointing at him. "It's important."
"My my." The Avengers parted and a man wearing an eyepatch, dressed in black walked towards her. "You've been busy, Miss Wilson."
"You could say that." Jade wiped the blood from her cheek. "Now, as much as I'd love to stay and chat. I have a promise to keep. So, enjoy your Blade convention." She gestured to the man. "But I'm outta here." She turned around and walked right into a man's chest.
"Hi." He smiled down at her. Jade went to raise her hand but the blonde man was quick and he slapped a handcuff on her wrist.
"Kinky." She blew the hair that had landed on her face. "But I'm afraid you're not my type, Captain."
Jades hand went for her swords but metal fingers wrapped around her wrist. She turned to look at the arm of the brunette man, who'd come up behind her.
"Cable?"
The metal armed man pulled her arm around her back as the blonde did the same. Now handcuffed, Jade was held by the shoulder as the blonde turned her around to face the man in the eyepatch.
"I'm Director Fury and I have a proposition for you."
There, now you're all caught up. Let's get back to the live show, shall we?
"Miss Wilson." Fury said again. Jade stopped spinning and looked at him. "Are you even listening?"
"No, I stopped once you opened your mouth."
Some members of the team snickered at her response.
"I said, I want you to join the Avengers."
"Pass." Jade replied immediately, putting her feet up on the table.
"Pass?" Fury folded his arms. "You're given the opportunity to join the most elite team of superhero's and you say no?"
"Did I stutter?"
"Miss Wilson, I don't think you quite understand. You've killed over a dozen people in the last month. Either you join the team or your ass is headed to the raft."
"Listen Frozone, if you're gonna threaten me. It had better be with something scarier than your own little Azkaban prison. Because that place is a five star resort on a tropical paradise compared to where I've been."
"Care to share with the class?" Fury asked, gesturing to the team.
"No." Jade folded her arms across her chest.
"So what are you? What's your deal?" Tony asked from his seat across from her.
"My deal is none of your business, Tin Man."
"Whatever you are, clearly you've got skills." Steve spoke up. "We could use someone like you on the team."
Jade pulled a small knife from her pocket and began to flip it in her hand.
"Well Miss Wilson what's it gonna be? A nice, cosy room in the compound or a less nice, less cosy prison cell? Make your choice."
"Alright, Jigsaw." She stopped flipping the knife and stood up from her chair. "I guess I don't really have much of a choice, do I?"
"Not exactly."
"Fine then, I'll join your little book club." Jade knew she couldn't go after Novikov from a jail cell, so this was the next best thing.
"Welcome to the team Miss Wilson." Fury held out his hand and she shook it.
"Great. Can I have my swords back now?"
