The Ghost Initiative (Avengers Next Gen)

Everything goes according to plan... or not.

~Alex's P.O.V~
The next day came and i had to face my realisation that for the first time since high school, I genuinely liked someone who i had to spend time with constantly. I could handle this, i just had to ignore any thoughts about how nice, and calming, and hot, and— ignore any thoughts that didn't pertain to the subject at hand.

It wasn't long into the day when the call came, we were needed at shield. Thank. God. I couldn't do much more of Mel giggling and sending me looks whenever James was in the room.

We arrived as quickly as possible and Nicky met us at the landing stripe and briefed us as we entered. The rest of my team, and the Avengers who apparently we couldn't leave unattended at the compound yet. Followed after me.

" we found a base in Siberia, it's remote, heavily guarded and we think it's where the attackers from last week retreated to. Figured our best bet was give you guys the layout and send you in. It'll be a covert Op, we don't need any of you getting seriously injured if we can prevent it. Not until we know what Hydra has planned." We all nodded.

" aim's simple. Get in, get the info, get out. No funny business, nothing." Her voice was stern, most likely as a result of our habit to... bend the Op outline when we get bored. But in our defence, we we're still teenagers when we did that last.

The schematics of the base popped up before us and we sat down to make a plan, sending the Avengers out of the room so certain—CAP— members would stop mentioning that there were 'better ways' to plan the mission.

Tony's P.O.V

The Ghosts pushed us out of the room, and the last thing i heard was.

" alrighty, i think our best plan of attack—" Alex, seemed so sure of everything, like nothing could go wrong. I was sure she thought that way because she figured Pep wouldn't realise or care if she didn't come back from a mission. But she had me now, and after last night, seeing the same childish excitement for learning in her eyes as mine. I would most certainly care if she didn't make it back out of this.

We watched as they walked out, dressed in uniforms that looked like they were designed by children. Except for Alex who walked out in a pair of Black pants and a plain black shirt, they all waved as they walked past, Looking as if they were excited to enter a life threatening situation.

Director Fury walked into where we had been sitting and told us we could actually watch from the body cam's on each team member to see how the mission played out.

The camera's turned on and we could see and hear everything that was happening on the jet.

" I'll go with the Bartons. Cap do you want Mel and Bree? Take the front?-" i watched as Amelia nodded and Melody and Breanna walked over to her." Cool, so that leaves the back and the distraction along with the top. Sammy? You can take Liv, and Taylor. You take Beck" everyone nodded, and we watched as they were dropped at seperate sites for a staged covert entrance.

We could see Amelia's group sneak past, Bree evidentially using her abilities. Taylor and Becky came down from the top and entered in inhibited, Sammy and Liv ( whoever that was) went through the back and took down anyone they came across before they could alert anyone. The Bartons took fire from all around the base, distracting most of the agents we could spot. And Alex walked right down the middle of the base towards a security office.

What the hell was she thinking. She leant up against the door, and her camera showed two agents with their backs turned. " Hey Fella's, I'm looking for the bathroom" the agents turned around quickly pulling their guns, but before the could fire anything Alex had taken them down with a couple of punches.

A voice sounded from the base and i could see Mel's face drop, Amelia had to grab her arm before she could run off and ruin there cover.

" little...whittle...Lexi...Stark, all grown up and still playing hero. You don't honestly think we haven't found a way to hack your transmitters. A distraction, i thought the Great Iron woman would have better planning than that. Of course, Howie was always the smart one of the famous Stark twins." Alex's camera became a blur as she turned around swiftly trying to find the source of the voice.
