The Assistant

Part 67

Narrator POV-

"Guys, we've got incoming." was the last thing you heard, the warning wasn't quick enough though.
A flash grenade thrown in through the entrance doors, the blinding light causing terror in the guests.

The lights throwing your sense of direction off as you grabbed some of the guests, pulling them behind the bar for protection
Y/N- did anyone see where it came from?
An older women points towards the front, explaining she saw 3 men and guns.

Y/N- can anyone hear me?
The comms had been blocked, something in this room must be able to reactivate them.
Y/N- I'm gonna find a way out, stay here and stay hidden.

You peaked over the bar, the lights still flashing as you ran to the side door slipping down the corridor and towards the back hallway.

The building had minimal security inside and only one gun cage, you found two wrenches and used them to snap the lock off.
The cage was open as you took out the weapons, a handgun and a box of ammo loaded into your waist band as you took the shotgun in hand.

The hallway was empty as you snuck your way back to the main hall, the rest of the avengers and shield agents on their knees as the men held guns to their head.
'What do I do?' was the thought that ran through your head, there was only you but 7 of them.

There was no sign of the target, he'd obviously found a way out of the room but maybe he was still in the building.
Your eyes met with Natasha's as you peeked over the counter, "Go" was what she mouthed to you as you nodded and headed back for the door.

Clearing room by room, you found a few stragglers who were hiding from the melee in the main room.
The connection of your comms starting to glitch as you moved further away from the main room, the disruptor must be in there.
The back door was alarmed, as soon as it opened, the men would know people were leaving out the back but you had to get them out of there.

The group waited behind as you approached the door, one of the armed men stood guard.
Luckily for you, he was facing away so taking him down was easy.

Natasha POV-

The men wouldn't let us go, eyes always focused on us as they searched the room for Michael but he wasn't here. I was hoping he was with Y/N but I didn't know, I was praying she'd got out and was okay.

The men had taken all our weapons and potential threats had been either neutralised or stopped.
An alarm started ringing around the room, crap, what the hell was that?

They had no idea either as 3 of them ran down the hallway and this was the chance we needed. I looked towards Steve who knew what I was thinking, AJ and Oscar caught our attention as well.
"3....2...." I jumped up taking down one of the guards, the rest being taken down at the same time.
We scrambled down the hallway as AJ stayed behind, the back door was wide open and gunfire coming from outside.

We rushed out, bullets flying everywhere as I was tackled to the ground
Nat- Jesus!
Y/N- do you want to die today?
Nat- No
Y/N- then stay down.

She stood up, shots hitting the armed men around us.
Y/N- they've got Michael, he's gone

The men darted away leaving us in the alleyway awaiting the police to arrive.
None of the guests had been seriously harmed, a few cuts and bruises but nothing that wouldn't heal.

Fury arrived at the scene soon after, Y/N describing as many of the men she saw as possible. She'd used her phone to film as much as possible which caught most of the incident.
We would interrogate the ones we captured later but now, we had to find Michael and fast, he was too important to have lost.

Fury- Get back to the compound and start the search for him, track his phone and use the traffic cams to search for him.
Steve- and what if we can't find him?
Fury- then we are all in trouble

That was never a good sign, Fury must have known who was behind this and it spelt trouble for everyone.

We'd all gone our separate ways when we got back, Wanda and Vision had already started the search. Tony and Steve joined them whilst Y/N disappeared upstairs.
Mila was fast asleep by now as I entered our room, Y/N slowly peeling off her attire from the night.

Her torso only covered with her lacy bra, my lips kissing down her neck and shoulder as she let out a satisfying breath
Nat- you seem tense
Y/N- it wasn't how I was expecting my first mission back to go
Nat- it's okay, you did everything right

She slowly turned, her body covered in scars from multiple different incidents.
Y/N- how did I get so lucky with you?
Nat- I think it's my natural charm and good looks
A smile crossed her face, she'd be happy for the last couple months and I couldn't have wished for more.

Her hands snaked around my waist as she pulled me close, our lips close as I stood on my tiptoes.
Y/N- I know a good stress relief
Nat- does it involve getting naked?
Y/N- it does, and maybe your legs would go a little numb
Nat- let's do it...
