Avengers: The Ghost Guardian

Unsure

It's been four days since the disaster at S.H.I.E.L.D. happened. All I can think about is if Clint is going to be ok. Clint is the only person I know that cares for me besides Natasha and Coulson. The three of them were able to convince S.H.I.E.L.D. that I was not a threat and that I could be trusted. They trusted me before I could trust myself, and I still don't completely trust myself.

I decided to go to the Hellicarrier, because I was tired of waiting. Feeling the uncomfortable slide of my wings exiting my back then i took off at full speed, invisible to the eye.

I found the Hellicarrier in the water and I landed on the top of the building on the ship and looked around. I looked around and found a familiar red head. I'd know that hair color anywhere. So I flew around and retracted my wings and became visible. I landed about 4 feet away from Natasha. I started walking toward the inside of the ship.

"Agent Romanoff." I took a few more steps only to hear her reply.

"Casper the not so friendly ghost."

I froze at the sound of the words that had just escaped her evil mouth. Heck, even heard the smirk in her voice.

I turned around and walked up to her and said, "You know exactly what I can do to you." I pointed my finger up to her face. Then I recognized the two men that were near Nat.

I walked up to the very tall blonde (well he's probably not that tall as I'm saying, give me a break I'm petite) shook his hand and said, "Hello Mr. Rodgers, It's an honor to meet you." he nodded with a confused face.
Then I walked to the man next to Mr. Rodgers and extended my hand toward him, "Hello Mr. Banner, I'm a huge fan of you work with gamma radiation." he shook my hand and replied, "Why thank you, and how old are you exactly?" I smirked, "How old do you think I am?" I asked him. "Around nine?" "Then I guess I'm nine." Then I just walked away to the Hellicarrier.

As I was walking through the hallways of the Hellicarrier toward the bridge they reminded me of a place that gives me nightmares.

I heard sirens and people yelling so I took one last look at my mother and took off. I started running down what was left of the hallways toward the back of the building, tears making my vision blurry. As soon as I exited the what was left of the building someone grabbed me from behind covering my mouth. "I see we have a survivor huh?" A man said. He turned me around to face him. He uncovered my mouth I tried to scream but nothing came out. "You're coming with me." He said with an evil grin. Then my whole world turned black.

As I came back to the real world I noticed that I was sitting against the wall hyperventilating. I don't want to remember that man ever again. He scarred me mentally and physically. I pulled myself together, stood up and continued on my route to the bridge. As soon as I got there I sat in one of the chairs around the circular table. I brought my knees up to my chest and started to sing the song my mother would sing to me when I was upset quietly to myself.

Once upon a time
On a island in the sea
A bird afraid to fly
afraid to spread his wings
Mama said don't give up
You can do it if you try
Then she watched him fly fly fly
Once upon a time.

"Hey GG, are you alright?" I heard a voice say I looked up to Phil looking at me with a worried face.

"I'm fine." I replied with the best smile I could muster. He didn't look quite convinced but he didn't pry.

Then I looked over to see Nat, Dr. Banner, and Mr. Rodgers walk on the bridge. As Phil walked over the Mr. Rodgers to Fangirl I became very interested with my hands. I heard them start a conversation but I wasn't interested.

"We got a hit," an agent said, "67% match, wait scratch that 79%. Stuttgart Germany. He's not exactly hiding sir."

"Captain, Ghost Guardian. You're up." Fury said as I looked up at the sound of my name.

"Sir?" Mr. Rodgers questioned, "If I may ask, why are you sending a young girl into a fight. I may be a bit rusty but I'm pretty sure I can handle this on my own."

I should have expected this... Before Fury could reply I interrupted.

"I'm capable of answering this Fury." I stood up and walked closer to the group.

"I may be hard to look in the eye, and look small and frail but I can assure you that I am not a fragile 'little girl' and I can handle a little fight like this. I may also look young but I've have more years of experience in this type of thing then you'd ever believe." I then looked at Fury, "I expect you'll be debriefing everyone about me when they get here?" As he nodded I walked out of the bridge.

I wasn't offended at all at what the Captain had said. He only said that for my safety but he shouldn't worry about that. I'm not worth that. I just wanted to get the point across that I was not weak and could handle it. I may be broken but I am not weak. I am not weak. I am not weak.... Am I? I don't quite know anymore...
