After everyone got a cup of joe, as Steve put it, they all settled back down.
"So how did you eliminate all of the other Duos." In a stubborn tone Nick Fury started the story telling process again.
"When Frankie made his way to me I had already been planning an escape. Hydra did something to me that I would never forgive. Dakota was a fellow wolf..."
"What does Dakota have to deal with your escape?" Nick Fury jumped in.
"If you don't let her tell her story you won't be able to have your questions answered Nick." Bruce? Bruce said that? Go, Bruce.
"Dakota and I became close," I continued looking deeply at the floor, "as the only wolves it was natural. Eventually Frankie's mother, Diedra the head scientist, decided on a new way to make Duos faster. She wanted to try and breed us." The room was silent to begin with but this silence was even quieter. It was so quiet it was deafening. No one moved, no one even breathed.
"As the only two animals of the same kind Dakota and I were forced to have pups." My face begin to heat. The flash backs were beginning.
"If you are wondering, how you force two to have pups in such environments is that you take them back to there own forest and rig it with mines." A sharp intake of breaths. "They would deactivate it if we were ready to comply."Steve this time became uncomfortable. I looked at him with tear stained cheeks. I don't know when the tears came but they were not stopping.
"I will always protect my pack. They were my first family. So we mated but what the scientist did not know was that our mutation could not be passed down to our children." The whines began to feel my ears my poor little ones whines.
"They began the same torture on our pups. We had four little pups." I was talking but I could not hear myself, only my little ones cries.
"Three strong boys and a little girl." I was sobbing at this point the words barely coming out but I couldn't stop.
"When they found out that they couldn't change, Fran...Frankie had them killed, but Dakota was the one who did it." My voice was gone on the last word. Moving, people were moving but I couldn't see who. I was picked up and moved. I don't know where but I was moving.
My poor pups I could see them. Pine and his sweet little blaze across his nose. Boulder and his pelt that matched Dakotas grey fur. Bear and his coat that matched mine and sweet Lily her brown and gold eye.
A voice broke through my flashbacks. It was high and coated with worry.
"Snap!"
"SNap!"
"SNAP! I need you to calm down. I need you to breath." Suddenly the smell of coffee was gone. Dirt, fresh dirt filled my nose. And the whines of little ones was gone but the sweet lullaby of water filled my ears.
Clint's grey green eyes were looking down at me.
"Hey," his voice was slow and soft now," can you change back?" I always change during an episode. This is my natural state, but I changed anyways. I looked around to see Thor standing at the door blocking Nick Fury from my room. Clint was by my side and surprisingly Tony.
"Are you okay pu-wolfie?" Tony tripped over his words. I've probably gotten rid of the nickname pup for a while.
"Yes, I think I'm ok. I'm sorry to you all. It's a tragic sto-"
"It's ok Snap, it's ok to not be okay." He brought me into his chest and held me and I cried. I wailed. Suddenly a pounding came from outside. I looked up, I didn't need too I could smell the rain but I looked anyway. Thor was looking at the ground in dismay. Tears still running down my face I stood on shaky legs. And I walked to Thor. I put my hand on his back and whispered a small thanks. At this point only Steve was left on the couches, everyone had gathered around my room. The string lights glittered behind me.
"Dakota," my voice was stronger now but his name still made me shake, " Dakota killed my pups so that he would not have been hurt. That was the deal. So when Frankie came to my cell that night. I challenged him and killed him. I broke into every cell using his keys and killed every Duo in their sleep. Including Dakota. I escaped that night and I changed into a wolf. I have been on the run ever since. I landed in New York because I was captured when I starving. I was sold to a women here who wanted a rare pet." I spat the word.
"Nick Fury, I came here because I was forced. I was trying to find food when a butcher attacked me and Captain America saved me. I looked around the room, "they all saved me."
