[Y/n POV]

Everything is silent. The only thing I can hear is the faint sound of the cars engine. Nothing but road ahead.

Sarah: "Did you hear me?"

(Y/n): "Hmm?"

Sarah: "How long?"

(Y/n): "How long what?"

Sarah: "Don't play dumb (Y/n). How long have you been dealing with all of the....... you know."

(Y/n): "You mean my abilities?"

Sarah: "Ya, how long have you been this fire demon thing?"

(Y/n): "That night I won that race, when I visited you at the hospital."

Sarah: "Okay. Then what happened or how did it happen?"

(Y/n): "I died."

She looked at me like I was crazy, but I could still see the worry in her eyes.

(Y/n): "After the race I got my bike fixed. But when I won the race I cost people money. So the mechanic cut my brakes, I took a nasty fall and died."

Sarah: "That doesn't make sense."

(Y/n): "When I died someone started talking to me. The devil I think. He gave me this power and a second chance. At the cost of doing his dirty work, killing bad people."

Rider: "Sinners. You kill them so they face judgement. It feeds him. Gives him power to walk among the living."

(Y/n): "The devil? You mean I give him power to walk on earth?"

Sarah: "What? What are you talking about?"

(Y/n): "The Rider. He is his own being inside me. But he needs me more than I need him."

Rider: "With the right person, I could be more. If I bond with a hurt soul then i could be much, much more."

(Y/n): "Hurt soul? Physically or mentally?"

Rider: "Both."

Sarah: "What did it say?"

(Y/n): "He could be more with the right person?"

Sarah: "So what I saw was just a bit of what he could do. Jesus."

(Y/n): "We're almost there."

Sarah: "Okay. I don't like it. I know it's to protect me but I still hate it."

(Y/n): "I know. But once this is over I will come back to see you."

Sarah: "Alright." She said in a sad tone.

I turn the corner and slow down. Once I spot the house I park the car look around.

(Y/n): "I'll be right back."

I get out of the car and walk to the front door. I knock three times and wait. I hear the locks turn then the door cracks open. An eye peaks through. The door then swings open revealing Judy in jeans and a blue t shirt.

Judy: "Mr. Angeles. Thank God your okay. Wheres Sarah?"

(Y/n): "She in the car. Thank you for doing this, really."

Judy: "Your welcome. Bring her in. I got some stuff ready for her."

I jog the the car and help Sarah inside. The house looks clean, spacious, and just comfortable over all. I get Sarah to the couch and sit beside her. Judy comes into the room with a stack of clothes in hand.

Judy: "I got some clothes here for you. Sweats, t shirts, all that good stuff, so you're comfortable."

Sarah: "Thank you so much. I can stay on the couch."

Judy: "I already have the guest room set for you."

Sarah: "Oh, um thank you. I guess I will change now."

Judy: "Of course. Your rooms up the stairs to the left. Need help?"

Sarah: "Its fine thank you."

She leaves the room and heads up starts. I gesture for Judy to sit so I can talk with her.

(Y/n): "You sure those clothes will fit her?"

Judy: "Ya, me and her would talk about clothes all the time. Its our thing. Found out we are basically the same for anything."

(Y/n): "Well you two are also the same personality wise. Figured you would be close to her with time. I should get going."

Judy: "How long will you be gone?"

(Y/n): "I'm going to get meds and equipment like you asked. Not sure how long that will be. The longest I should be is twenty four hours."

Judy: "Okay I will tell Sarah. Please take care of yourself."

(Y/n): "Don't worry about me, I will be perfectly safe."

I get up off the couch and walk out the door. I get back in the car and drive to the nearest hospital. I'm not going to enjoy this but it's for Sarah. I have too.

[Nick Fury POV]

Fury: "Any signs of him? Anything at all?"

Maria Hill: "Nothing sir."

Widow: "He will be back."

Fury: "What makes you say that Romanoff?"

Widow: "They went after someone close to him. Family most likely. He was definitely not happy while she was gone."

Fury: "Now that's she's safe, he will finish these thugs off to make sure it won't happen again. Find any news reports on a kidnapped woman."

Stark: "Already ahead of you." He says walking into the room.

Stark: "Check this out."

He says pull out a holographic screen. He pulls a profile on a woman named Sarah Angeles. A lung cancer patient constantly in and out of hospitals.

Maria Hill: "This is the woman that's close to him."

Stark: "Yup, that's his sister. Went into remission a day or two before she was taken from her own hospital bed."

Fury: "What's the hot heads name?"

Stark: "(Y/n) Angeles. Father unknown, mother passed from heart failure. The siblings gained ownership of her house shortly after."

Fury: "That's it's? Though there would be more to him."

Stark: "Oh but there is. He's unemployed yet managed to get money for his sister's treatment as well as keep up with payments for the house."

Maria Hill: "Criminal record?"

Stark: "Multiple misdemeanors. All for illegal street races. Every single time he's managed to make bail."

Fury: "Okay that doesn't explain how he has abilities. They can't just spring up out of nowhere."

Stark: "Nothing here that could cause abilities relating to fire. No testing, no accidents, and nothing on the parents either."

Maria Hill: "So he really did just gain powers."

Fury: "I don't buy it. Search that house, we need to find him or his sister."
