Mother has been stricter about our training lately. 

"Candice, mother won't be happy." I read a magazine while she trains. My sister has been slow with her reactions, she slows any more and she will be beaten again by Maria. "Again" I state still not looking up. I can tell by the energy she releases in the air how she's doing. Candice has always been the sweet one. Slower than the rest of us. For the past few months I have been in charge of getting her up to par with her abilities. 

After being brought back home, mother made sure I was fixed again. My powers work perfectly now and I can see electricity in the air, it only took a few weeks. I guess that's why I used glasses before, I wasn't done with my treatments. After that I spent the other months training my sisters. Maria is the only one I don't worry about, although her hunger for blood is dangerous and uncontrollable.

"Good Candice, HYDRA doesn't accept weakness. Make sure you keep the force fields up through every bullet in that gun."

"Are you crazy, that's a lot of bullets" She shouts at me. I look at her with angry eyes, how dare she call me crazy? I'm her elder, I'm her superior. My eyes glow blue before Maria places a hand on my shoulder.

"Mother won't like you killing our sisters" I sigh and chuckle, you almost killed me so what's the difference. "The difference is that I didn't" Fuck her mind reading...She chuckles at my thoughts.

Liza walks in with an angry look, she had her dirty blonde hair back in a ponytail, she had suited up already with a full body armor and weapons on her holsters. She had my eyes, but was tall like mother. "Mother has an assignment for us. John you need not come, it's just for the girls"

John scoffs dropping the gun he was shooting Candice with then leaving the room.

I smile looking up. "A girls party? About time. Who are we killing?"

"Mother wants us to attack the hidden cartel in Washington" She didn't seem happy about this.

"I don't understand, they mean nothing to us." Candice walks up joining the conversation. Her short stature barely registering with us. She looked the least similar to all of us. She was short, had dirty blonde hair and light eyes. She had round facial features. We used her for recon since she looked so damn innocent.

"I assume since it's in Washington she wants us attracting certain attentions, the Avengers." I close my magazine smiling at my sisters. They have been waiting for this party, so have I. To kill them is my highest honor.

Liza smiles at me "Aspen, this is your chance to kill them off and prove to mother how your her favorite."

I stand up and grab her hand "Even if she calls me her favorite, we are sister, I will always be there for you. Now let's get ready, grab Sarah too. I'm sure shes dying to burn a man to the ground."

We arrive. I'm in front of course. The most powerful should be. We walk the streets. Candice blocking any bullet headed our way from the police, Sarah burning everything even trees. I make the nearest men turn and shoot their partners making work so much simpler, I don't even need to touch someone anymore to manipulate their synapses.

We stop when we hear a jet come down. I smile excited.

"Girls, they're here" We stand in formation waiting for them to show themselves. Iron man, Thor, Loki, Captain America, Winter Soldier, Black Widow, Falcon, even Hawkeye..It was a party, a few people missing though. We'll take care of them after.

"Aspen, baby..it's me don't do this" Captain America calls out to me as he steps out the jet. Why is he calling me baby?

"I am no mans baby." I say turning my eyes blue with power.
