The Powerful Duo {A Marvel Story}

Chapter 33

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

We've been training all week, feeling sore the next day but not caring, pushing ourselves harder and learning more, thinking that we would have to expect the unexpected.

It's finally the day that we set for the mission and I'm changing into my suit. Well, everyone's changing and stealing a few more punches in the training room before leaving.

I finish changing and look down at my wrist, looking at my watch and seeing what time it is, feeling impatient and just wanting to end Hydra. So I walk out of my room and find Steve opening a water bottle, guessing he just finished training from how sweaty he is, I raise my eyebrows and walk toward him.

"Well, you stink" I spoke, smirking.

Steve looks at me through his eyebrows and shows a small smirk as well. Huffing, he looks back down at his water bottle "Ya, well that's what happens after you train hard" Steve says in a sarcastic tone.

I show a look of shock and chuckle "Woah! Steve can be sarcastic?" putting both hands on the counter, I lean closer and give Steve a look.

Steve smiles and after a while, he looks back down "I'm gonna go back to training before we have to leave." Steve starts walking away.

"And sweat even more?" I turn around to look at him, leaning on my hands still.

Steve shrugs and walks even farther away "You stink now! No need to stink more!" I yell after him.

Sighing, I stop leaning on the island and walk to Wanda's room, not knowing what else to do.

When I open the door, Wanda sits on her bed doing something on her phone. "Hey," Wanda says after seeing me.

"Hi" I greet her back and sit on the bed with her. After a little silence, I speak up "I think Gen and Pietro-" I start.

"No! Stop!" Wanda stops me, flailing her hands before they land on my mouth. I laugh and take her hands off my mouth "What!" I say with a smile on my face.

"It's just gross to think about! And the worst part is... I know." Wanda explains.

I laugh uncontrollably and Wanda sits, disgusted with the situation. Cracking a small smile, she starts laughing with me. "So other than that... What about you, Wanda?" I say after I've caught my breath from all that laughter.

"What about me?" Wanda questions, looking confused.

"Well, you and Vision," I answer.

Wanda stutters and shakes her head "What? No. Nothing is going on with me and Vision." Wanda scoffs and I smirk even more. "What?" Wanda says after seeing how wide my smile is. "Oh my god, AJ! There is nothing!" Wanda lies again.

"Oh my god, Wanda! Stop lying! I can see it on your face, You're in love!" I practically scream. Wanda looks at me like I was crazy and scoffs again, looking away. I can see the tiny smirk she had on her face "Wanda you're smiling, and you're practically glowing." I say.

Wanda looks back at me and for a second has a serious face, until she gave in and smiled once again, looking down in defeat. I laugh and yell in victory.

Suddenly, Wanda's door opened and I look behind to see Steve in his suit "It's time, let's go." Steve says, looking at the both of us.

I look at Wanda "Let's go do our job" We get off the bed and walk out, Steve walking behind us.

Pietro, Sam, Clint, and Genevieve wait in the Quinjet, the rest of us just entering it. Once I see Sam I run up to him and hug him, being as I haven't seen him in a while.

"I missed you!" I say excitedly.

Sam laughs "Can't say the same." Sam retorts.

"Ya right, I know you missed me by just the look in your eyes." We start walking in the jet.

Sam laughs "Come on, let's go. We have a lot to do."

Once everyone is in the jet, Clint powers it up and everyone buckles their seatbelts.

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

Genevieve tells us to keep the Quinjet farther away from the Hydra base 'cause of the guards surrounding it.

Clint keeps the Quinjet in the sky, close enough to the ground for us to jump out without getting hurt.

I grab Gen's hand and teleport down with no problem. Wanda had graciously flown down with her magic.

"You couldn't have helped me at least?" Pietro says, annoyed. "But why do that when I can just watch you struggle to land on the ground?" Wanda looks at him. "I do not struggle" Pietro scoffs and jumps out of the Quinjet. Wanda smirks as he looks like he's struggling.

We continue and look through the trees that surround us as we all follow Gen deeper into the woods while trying not to make too much noise.

"Stop," Gen whispers, holding her hand out, stopping me and the rest of us. "Somethings wrong..." Gen finishes, trying to figure something out.

I confusingly look at Genevieve while Steve looks around us to see if anyone is following.

Everyone stays quiet and waits for Genevieve to say something.

"GET DOWN!" Gen yells.

Everyone ducks down just in time before bullets could hit us. "How did they know!" Steve yells, holding up his shield for protection.

Genevieve looks at Pietro, he had this look on his face, it's the kind of look that he does before he does something risky. Just then he flashes away with a gust of wind and starts taking out the guys shooting at us.

"Pietro!" Wanda yelled after him. Standing up and raising her hands, she stops all the bullets in mid-air. The Hydra soldiers sit there in shock and stop firing. Wanda stands there, glaring at the guards.

"Prodolzhay strelyat'!" yelled one of the Hydra soldiers.

"Keep firing!"

Wanda then makes all the bullets turn to the soldiers and fires them.

Clint shoots his arrows, Sam flies around shooting at the guards, And Steve throws his shield at them. Genevieve stands up and looks at me "The door is just down there, but we're not gonna make it by running, you and Pietro have to get us there." Gen said with desperate eyes.

I look at Genevieve for a second before nodding "Okay" I say. Gen runs and seeks cover behind a tree.

"Pietro! You and AJ need to get us to the doors!"  Genevieve yells through comms. "AJ! You get Steve, Clint, and Sam! Pietro can take Wanda and me!"

"On it!" Pietro replies.

"Got it!" I run towards Steve since he's closer to me, and grab his wrist, teleporting us to the door. I look around to see where Sam and Clint are and teleport to them.

When I appear next to them, Clint turns his arrow towards me. I raise my hands in shock "Sorry" Clint says, relieved it wasn't a guard. "It's alright. But just a warning for the both of you... I've never teleported with 2 people at the same time." I said really fast and grabbed their wrists to teleport away.

I try to focus on getting us out of here before we get shot. I finally teleport us away, but when I land, it's not where I wanted us to go.
