Lady Haven ― S.Rogers

42, Outside The Law

Several hours later, Haven found herself in the backseat of an old blue car. Bucky beside her, Sam up front, and Steve driving.

The car came to a stop under a bridge, parking behind a nice black car. "Wait here, " Steve said, stepping out and joining a blonde at the trunk of the other vehicle. Haven knew her to be Sharon Carter.

"You're still going to fix me, right? You haven't forgotten?"

Haven looked over, finding Bucky's eyes on her. She nodded, "at the very first available second." He let out a breath, relieved.

Steve returned with his shield and Sam's wings moments later, and the group was off.

Soon, they parked again. This time, beside a windowless white van. Everyone climbed out, greeting Clint and Wanda. Haven smiled.

"Cap, " Clint said, nodding at his friend.

Steve extended his hand. "You know I wouldn't have called if I had any other choice." He said, the pair shaking hands.

"Hey, man, you're doing me a favor. Besides, I owe a debt." Clint replied, looking back at Wanda.

Steve followed his eyes, giving the young girl a small smile. "Thanks for having my back."

"It was time to get off my ass." She said, nodding and walking over to Haven. They greeted each other with a hug.

"How about our other recruit?" Steve asked, looking at the van.

Clint stepped back, swinging the van door open and startling the man inside. "He's rarin' to go. Had to put a little coffee in him but he should be good."

"What time zone is this?" The man said, stepping out with groggy eyes. When he looked around and spotted Steve, his eyes widened. "Captain America." He said, shaking his hand.

"Mr. Lang," Steve replied, nodding.

Scott took a breath, seeming starstruck. "It's an honor. I'm shaking your hand too long. Wow! This is awesome! Captain America." He said, looking around the group. "Ah, look, I wanna say I know you know a lot of super people, so thinks for thanking of me. Or no, that didn't make sense. Thanks for thinking of me."

Steve nodded, smiling slightly at the enthused recruit. "They tell you what we're up against?"

"Something about some psycho-assassins?"

"We're outside the law on this one. So if you come with us, you're a wanted man." Steve said.

Scott shrugged. "Yeah, well, what else is new?"

Bucky let out a breath from his spot by the car. "We should get moving."

"We got a chopper lined up," Clint said.

An alarm rang out and a man began speaking on the intercom in a different language. "They're evacuating the airport." Bucky translated.

"Stark's here," Haven said, looking up at Steve.

"Stark?" Scott asked, seeming confused.

Steve shook his head, disappointed they weren't able to slip out undetected. "Suit up."

And they did.
