"Great, just great," Ava muttered as she put away her phone and returned to the bar. Her thoughts were running like crazy as she tried to focus on bar patrons and drinks. It was a busy Friday night and the local college kids had come out to celebrate midterms being over. These nights were always crazy. Usually at least three fights would break out before closing.
It looked like one was starting right in front of her as two guys were fighting over a bar stool.
"Dude, I had this chair first!" one kid shouted.
"No, man! I was here first!" the other snapped as he pulled his fist back.
"Gentlemen!" Ava said as she moved closer to the boys. "How about we all chill and let me get you guys a shot, on the house?" As she said this she lightly touched each man on his arm. They both instantly calmed down and looked at her. She grinned and returned behind the bar to pour the shots.
At Sam and Bucky's table the interaction didn't go unnoticed. Nor did the dark green glow that came from Ava's hands as she touched the two men.
"What the hell was that!" Sam exclaimed as he looked at Bucky.
"I have no idea, but we need to find out," Bucky answered as he got up and started walking toward the bar.
Before he could get there, the door to the bar opened and John Walker came sauntering in. Sam and Bucky immediately intercepted him half way to the bar.
"Walker, why are you here?" Bucky growled as he closed the space between himself and Walker.
"Well, Barnes, last I checked it was still a free country. I'm just here having a drink; what about you two?" He continued to walk toward the bar, eyeing Ava as he approached.
