I will never underestimate the abilities of the Beast ever again

I will never underestimate the abilities of the Beast ever again. Somehow, he managed to get Nat and I up to the floating island of Sokovia. Albeit a bit battered and bruised, but still in one piece.

"I really hope this makes us even." Nat winces to the Beast who grunts in annoyance. Seemingly this was enough for Nat. "Go be a hero." She orders him, and he roars taking off towards the city. Nat and I run together, through the forest. I have never been the strongest runner, and it shows, Nat sprints, somehow managing to breathe evenly while I was huffing and puffing like an asthmatic elephant.

"Keeping up kid?" She asks, a smirk on her face.

"Fine." I wheeze out, still matching pace with her. Thankfully we didn't have to run for much longer, seeing the outskirts of the city.

"Get ready kid, this is gonna get messy." She says to me before pulling two blue wand-like weapons out of her boots that zing with electricity. I follow her lead, pulling out the daggers she gifted me, wishing they were my Katana. I don't have long to dwell on the thought, robots immediately coming to greet us. Falling into a rhythm, I lose count of of the robots I dismember. We manage to make it to the pillar in the centre of the city. Swiping left and right, through metal and steel, the battle becomes a song in my blood, a deathly march of a melody. After taking down too many robots to count, the city centre is cleared, I look to Nat, who is finishing off her final robot.

"I'm going to find my siblings." I state, determination setting in. She must have gathered how nothing was going to stop me from finding them, and simply nods.

"Be safe." She whispers, gently, before taking off in the opposite direction to me. I begin to run through the streets of my childhood, taking down robot after robot as I move along. Eventually, I come across another member of the team. The archer, Clint.

"Ow!" He grunts out as a dozen robots descend on his position. Readying my daggers, I charge forward taking down more of the damned robots. I turn to late to see the one behind me readying its weapon to strike. I wait for the fatal blow, only it never comes. Because standing in it's place, was none other than one of the people I was looking for. None other than my big sister Wanda.

"Elena?" She asks, her eyes staring into mine, as if she were seeing a ghost. Not giving her anytime to react, I sheathe the daggers and barrel into her, squeezing her into a tight hug. It's not long before I feel her slender, familiar arms engulfing me. Relief that she's ok hits me hard and I begin to tear up at our reunion, not realising that the relief was not only my own, but my sister's as well.

"You're ok." She breathes out, burying her face into my hair. "I thought that we lost you." She says pulling away, but keeping her arms on my shoulders. "The Captain told us that Ultron took you, and that they had no way of tracing him. I was so worried." Tears linger on her eyelashes, the high emotions of the battle and our reunion, taking its toll.
