A Lost Story (A Marvel Fan Fiction)

Chapter Twenty Three

Jayne's POV

It didn't take me long to explain my situation to the Avengers, and they were more than willing to help me find Carla.

Tony started off by locating the base in which I came from. The one that they had taken me from. Once the exact location was found we hopped on a jet and flew to the area. Thor used his lightning to burn away the incredibly long grass and show the trap door (Tony still did his best to avoid cow poo). It was made of a thick steel and had a reinforced padlock on it, but it was more than easy for Bruce to open it again.

"Follow me," I told them all and hopped in the hole in the ground with the others following suit. Bucky was right at my side.

It hadn't changed at it. The hallway we walked down was still the dark, damp, creepy place that I remembered. But now, it was unusually quiet. It was still used for the same purpose, we figured, as we came across a revolting smell.

"Not again!" I heard Natasha exclaim then the sound of her dinner coming up followed.

I noticed Steve trying his best to keep his food down.

A sudden swish of an arrow flew past me and a yelp of pain came from the darkness in front of us. I turned my head to see Clint reloading his bow. I gave him a nod of approval.

As we went further down the hall, men is black suits jumped out from doors on either side of us. Bucky was the first to react, taking down a handful of them while Steve and Natasha took care of the rest.

We continued. Eventually we came to an end of the hallway. Nothing either side of us.

"What?" I said, confused.

"Well, I'd say we're in a bit of a pickle here." Tony remarked.

"No kidding." Natasha and I replied in unison. Tony gave us both a look of witty humour.

"Hang on, I have an idea. You may want to move back." I said to them, swishing them back with a flick of my wrist.

They all moved back, including Bucky. He gave me a look of concern, and I returned it with a confident smile. He nodded slightly.

I turned back around to face the wall. Before I did anything, I put my hand on it to feel how firm it was. It was quite soft, mostly made of plaster with bricks behind it. It would've been easy enough for Bruce to smash through it, but it was my turn to do something for the team.

Holding my arms out slightly either side of me with fists clenched, I slowly opened my hands, tilting my head back. Fire began consuming me, starting from the palms of my hands and sliding up my arms. Soon enough, my entire body was flame. I could feel my flaming hair swirling and swishing behind me.

"Ok." I said to myself.

I walked to the wall and pushed myself into it.

Bucky's POV

I watched in awe as her entire body caught on a golden-red fire. Her flaming hair swirled around her. I couldn't help but notice how beautiful she was, even when she was a burning flame.

She walked closer to the wall and pushed herself into it. At first I was a little unsure about what she was doing, then I saw her continuing to get deeper into the wall. She was burning a hole through it for us. I guess she just wanted to prove her worth, as Bruce could've easily done the same thing with a big, green fist.

She stumbled slightly when she made it through to the other side. Her flame died down and she turned to look at me, a smile spreading across her gorgeous face. I returned the smile with a cheeky grin.

"Well done got stuff." Tony remarked.

I shot him a slight glare, shocked at my sudden protectiveness. He huffed at my gesture.

"You guys coming or what?" Jayne said to us.

I walked through the hope first, grabbing Jayne around the waist as I made it to her. Oh how I had longed to do that. She stifled a giggle and gave me a peck on the cheek.

"Ok love birds, we're here for a reason, stop doing - this." Clint gestured to us with his hand.

"Whatever Clint." Jayne replied.

I let my grasp on her go and she continued down the hall. All was suddenly quiet. Then a shrill scream pierced the air.
