Swearing, violence and blood. and kinda universe crossover with the fantastic 4/xmen. 

Pyro's POV

I get back to base, with the drive and the phone. The phone, however, I hid in a little portal. The mischief man seems familiar. Where do I know him from? Not a mission. He seemed, shocked, or sad to see me.  I push those thoughts aside and toss the drive on my superior's desk. He nods and waves me off. 
I walk to my cell, thinking about why  almost 2 years of my life is a complete blank. Amnesia? No, then I wouldn't remember anything. I get to my cell and see a thick file just chillin' in the centre of the room. I open it and see a file, sitting there. I pick it up and read it. I'm bored reading the first fucking sentence. Long story short, the Winter Soldier and Captain America need to be killed. And I'm the best person to do that? 

Welp, this'll be fun.  2 100 year old Super Soldiers. 1 who I worked with when I was younger, so that might be why I'm doing this. EmOtIoNaL dAmAgE! 

"So I see you've found your next mission. They need to be dead by next week, understand?" Pierce yells. 

I nod and stand up.

"Hail HYDRA" not. Ugh I'd give my other arm to get out of this shitshow. I gear up and teleport to the jet. What mess have I got myself into?


Steve's POV

I'm sitting next to Bucky while he's trying not to cry. I'm trying not to cry but tears roll down my face.  

"What if she's truly lost?" Bucky whispers. I've never ever seen him this broken. I'm scared.

"Buck, don't obsess on the what ifs and focus on the definites." I reply.

"Steve, I know you mean well, but as someone who knows many ways to kill you, respectfully shut the actual fuck up." He growls. I won't even "Language" him, he's too annoyed.

*CRASH*

"WHAT WAS THAT?" Tony yells, running in. 
I turn around and see a girl, with flames encircling her hands. She's wearing what looks like Nat's suit but smaller but with a mask that covers her mouth and nose and with more weapons.

"Sup fuckers!" She yells. Oh no.

Tony's POV

I hear an explosion and run in, gauntlet activated. 

"FRI, call the Avengers here. Now." I command.

"How the hell have y'all been?" She quips, a smirk in her tone of voice

"Doing just fine till you showed up." Clint yells.

"Damn bestie! That hurt me right in the emotions! Oh wait, I don't feel any!!" She replies. 

Capsicle throws his shield at her, obviously hoping that'll do something. She spins and catchs it without missing a beat.

"Say, how did you take down the spandex wearing boomer? You force him to listen to KidzBop music, that's enough to kill anyone" She says. 

Pyro's POV

I start shooting at America's golden boy and his hair modelling, traitorous boyfriend.  Hang on. Wait a goddamn minute. I have this bitch's shield! I'm not giving this back, or going back to HYDRA.

I wrap the shield in silver light, so it'll always come back to me. 

"What the fuck Kyle! Step the fuck up Kyle!" I yell, knowing that that's not the whole vine but its still useful.

"Oh and the shield? Mine now!" I remark, poking my tongue out. I flick my ear and the earpiece falls into my hand.

"Houston, we have a problem! Ah shit, gotta dash!" I yell, not even waiting for the response. I stamp on the communicator and snicker. 

"Rory? What... are you... doing? What's going on?" A voice whispers.

I spin around and see a boy. 

"Mcscuse me? Who the fuck are you?" I ask. He looks hurt and I laugh. 

"Language!!!" Cap'n Crunch yells. I proceed to shoot him in the leg and damn, it was fun. 

I stare at my wrist as the Black Widow runs at me.

"Oop, is that the time? Gotta run!" I quip and stab the Widow in the leg. 

I admire my chaos and phase through the wall. Now, I need something to occupy myself while I'm on the run. 

Aurora's POV (Yes, I know, but Aurora and Pyro are 2 different people. Kinda Bucky and the Winter Soldier)

What did I just witness? Holy. Shit. I almost killed my dads, what kind of monster am I? I can't go back. Not until I've sorted this shit out. I don't know what to do. I just need to be back in control. But I don't know  how to do that.

Pyro's POV

Heh. I heard my Handler talking to the Boss about something that... was powerful and heavily protected by the Fantastic 4? Bruh. I summon the phone and it miraculously unlocked. My mind flicks back to the boy.  Who's Rory? Me? Honestly, I can FEEL the identity crisis coming. Is everything I know a... Lie? Are HYDRA the bad ones? Honestly, there is no right or wrong, I guess. Stark was a career criminal but he's Iron Man. Strucker's prized experiments committed crimes so... I don't know.
