CARSON STOOD inside the space ship, arms folded, leaning against the wall while he watched from afar as Natasha said her goodbyes to Rhodey and Nebula.
He looked down at his feet after hearing a screeching sound and furrowed his brows at a small rat-like looking creature biting his shoes.
"Now what in the hell are you supposed to be." Carson mumbled. He kicked the creature away, watching as it landed harshly on the ground before scurrying away.
"Take care okay?" Natasha said as she pulled Rhodey into a hug.
Rhodey hugged her back. "Get that stone and come back. No messing around alright?"
Natasha nodded and smiled at Carson as she looked at him from over Rhodey's shoulder. "Don't worry, we got it."
The pair broke apart and Natasha started walking up the ramp to the ship. Carson held his hand out to help Natasha up and made eye contact with Rhodey in the process, giving the man a nod.
"Let's get this done." Rhodey told him. "You guys watch each others six."
Carson pressed the button to close the doors and gave Rhodey a quick salute before they closed. "Yes sir."
The pair both took their seats and Carson started to power up the ship. The ship took off from the ground and as they neared the jump, Carson hovered his finger over the button that would allow the ship to enter said jump, looking over at Natasha with his eyebrows raised.
"You ready, Romanoff?" He asked.
Natasha nodded and started tapping the arms of the seat with her hands in anticipation. "I'm ready."
Carson smirked. "Try to keep your eyes open this time, yeah?"
"Oh be quiet." She huffed.
He laughed and pressed the jump button, the pair of them being jolted back into their seats because of the drastic increase in speed.
After a few seconds, they seemed to adjust to the speed and both of them relaxed, taking a moment to look around at the multitude of colours that swarmed them the more they flew into the jump.
Carson turned his head to look over at Natasha who also did the same. Once they made eye contact both of them broke out into a series of chuckles between them.
"You think there's any food places around here?"

AS THE TWO finished climbing up the steps of the mountain, they both stopped at the top, taking a moment to catch their breaths.
Natasha groaned. "I bet the raccoon didn't have to climb a mountain."
"I swear he's a rabbit." Carson ran a hand through his hair.
"Oh, whatever." Natasha shrugged. "He eats garbage."
Carson chuckled and leant against a rock. "Do you think this is the teams way of telling us we need to work out more by them sending us here?"
"No, no." Natasha shook her head slowly. She paused and her brows came together the more she thought about it. "Maybe it is?"
