IT SEEMED LIKE an eternity of crawling away for (Y/N), since it took forever to find the exit of the vent. Once her eyes caught the sight of it, she kicked it open, catching a guard's attention.
Melina and (Y/N) stepped out of the vent and knocked the guard without any effort, kicking him in the stomach and crashing his head against the wall before he dropped to the ground.
Melina picked up the guard's dropped gun out of the floor and raised it in the air, and (Y/N) noticed how many other guards were making their way toward them ir a defensive stance.
"She's got a gun," they talked in Russian.
Melina and (Y/N) backed away to the center of the catwalk as the guards surrounded them.
"Zolohov, Melina!" a guard yelled in Russian. "Stop right there."
(Y/N) raised her arms innocently in the air, showing no sign of fighting anyone as she looked over to Melina with a slight smirk.
"Drop to the ground," the guards ordered.
"Precisely what I was thinking, aren't they nice, (Y/N)?" Melina said innocently.
"Of course!" (Y/N) answered.
Melina fired the gun into the air, aiming it toward the engine. The engine exploded completely, causing the guards to scream as they fell to the ground.
(Y/N) raised her fist and used her rope cable to help her and Melina stay out of danger from the fallen engine. Once they were out of danger, Melina and (Y/N) walked away from the scene as they tried to contact Yelena about the situation.
"Yelena, slight change of plan. I completely demolished one of the engines and we are going into a controlled crash," Melina told her over the comms.
"Fantastic," Yelena said. "I'm heading to the widows now."
"What do we do now?" (Y/N) asked Melina.
"I'll go for Alexei. You need to find Yelena and Natasha," Melina replied. "Go!"
(Y/N) nodded and jogged away, running through the halls of the Red Room and hoping to find Yelena or Natasha as soon as possible. Explosions shook the ground and she tried to keep her balance, getting frustrated as she got lost in the halls until a blow on the side of her head pushed her down.
(Y/N) hit the floor with a thud and she felt her head throbbing from the pain, opening her eyes to see who had done it, she realized it was the same figure that had attacked her before: The Taskmaster.
"You again," she tried to regain her confidence and stood from the floor, panting and raising her arms in a fighting stance.
The Taskmaster aimed another punch at her stomach and she dodged it in time before grabbing their arm and pulling it closer to her as she twisted it to cause a reaction. (Y/N) brought them closer and managed to elbow them in the chest and roundhouse kicking them.
