C H A P T E R (33) - C A T C H / U P

Ouch.

The only word Cassie could think of as she opened her eyes; ouch.

A headache pounded her skull and the bright light in the room resembling the sun wasn't helping. She sighed as she rubbed her forehead, trying to understand the situation. All she could remember was crashing the plane into the ocean with Steve, and a sudden panic came over her. Did she survive? Was Steve alive?

Her hand was subconsciously wrapped around the dog tag she was so relieved to still feel around her neck when the door opened, interrupting her unanswered questions. A woman entered, holding a platter of food.

"Miss Rogers, nice to see you're awake."

"It's nice to know I'm alive, where am I?"

The woman hesitated before answering, "You had an accident where you were badly hurt and came here to heal."

"That didn't answer my question." Cassie eyed her suspiciously as she stood up from the bed, the woman backing up slowly.

"I, um..." she stuttered.

"Tell me where I am."

The woman pressed a button and shortly after, two armed men showed up. Cassie took this as a hostile attack and assaulted them both, making sure they didn't hit their head as she placed their unconscious bodies down gently. She didn't want to kill anyone unless she had to, and she needed to find out where was first.

As quickly as she could, she darted out the door before any more armed guards could show up. She was met with what looked like a warehouse interior before finding the exit, and pushing it open, the daylight hit her hard. She brought up her arm to protect her eyes before she really took in her surroundings.

"Oh my-"

She was cut off by the screeching of tires, a few black cars had shown up, causing her to back away. She went to run in the opposite direction when a hand gripped her wrist.

"I'm not here to hurt you." The man said.

She tried to calm down, taking in his face and being bewildered by his eye patch.

"I'm Director Nick Fury. And you've got some catching up to do."

A/N; I know it's boring but I just needed to progress it through to the next chapters :)
