July 22nd

y/n lance sitting in a bar drinking shots talking to himself '' come on we put those ground rules down for a reason so you don't do anything stupid '' grabbing a shot and downing it " I get where you're coming from but still there's a chance we might be seen '' y/n says as some people walk past him" then we might end up on the radar of even worse people and possibly the avengers'' saying under their breath, grabbing another shot and downing it.

''great glad we agree now what do you want for dinner I'm starving '' before grabbing another shot, the door of the bar opens turning my head to see who it is, my eye rise and they widen with shock at a women's beauty her golden hair  flowing over her shoulders, wearing a white crop top with a  yellow button-up plaid coat, she was walking towards me it felt like slow motion, 

We locked eyes god those eyes her hazel/green eyes  I got my composer back and went back to drinking. She walked past me and got the seat next to me. I quickly looked at her and went back to drinking. She was calmly trying to get Josie's attention, But Josie was busy with all the other people's orders all night. I never imagined her having a full house.

The blonde is getting frustrated. I raise my hand "Hey Josie!" she looks at me waiting for my input "6 shots of vodka please " she nods, finishing a drink for another person and walking towards me grabbing two more shot glasses filling them up, and also the empty ones as well, I told her to leave the bottle to make her life a little easier.

"Hello, can i –" before she could finish her sentence Josie walked away "cyka," said with frustration a small smile appeared on my lips shaking my head softly, I move 3 of my shots in front of her, and she turns her head looking at me confused " your welcome" giving her a half-smile, she doesn't hesitate to pick up a shot and down it " how did you know I wanted vodka" saying with a very noticeable Russian accent

I look at her smiling" well I assumed so because of the accent, you're not wearing a skin-tight dress like most of the women hear and you don't seem to be the type of woman that wants to wrap your arm around a man by the end of the night " I say squinting my eye and shaking my head slightly.

"I don't follow," the blonde says with a confused expression probably because of the last part I said Laughing a little'' Most of the women in this bar come fishing for a man looking nice ordering a drink to make them look drunk,  getting a man's attention and the next morning taking all the money he has and leaves, most of the women in here do it"

With a wide smile, the blonde asks " and how do you know I don't want to do that" ignoring how I know that, but to be honest it never happened to me but to my friend Foggy it happened to him a few times and he just never learned. In the end, I asked her a follow-up question,'' How about a beer? Then we can talk" I say with a wink and a smile

A small chuckle escaped her lips  " okay- okay "raising her hand in defeat,  I raise my hand "Josie two beers please" she nods and brings them over quickly while going back to making drinks for the others.

(in Russian) " do I get the name of the woman I'm buying a beer for " she looked at me wide-eyed (in Russian) " you speak Russian " among other languages yes I thought you would put two and two together because of the whole vodka thing " giving her a smile and wink, she giggles "Yelena, Yelena Belova and I guess I didn't catch that at first" well it's nice to meet you, Yelena''?  Smiling again while clanking the beers together.

I lost track of time talking to Yelena, well not exactly talking just listening to her speak with her Russian accent in a way I find hilarious. I found out a lot about her. She likes dogs. Her favorite food is macaroni and cheese. She has a weird sense of humor which I find amusing.

She was originally from Russia. She moved to the states when she was young and then moved back a few years later. She's now here in New York to live with her sister and her friends.

One of the main things that caught my attention was her beautiful hazel/green eyes. They were unique in a way, finding myself getting lost in them once and a while, reminding me of someone I used to know.

At first, I didn't notice but the bar was almost empty except for the few people that were not regulars there, a male blonde around 6'0  he was with a friend catching up with, also  6'0, brown hair hitting his shoulders but something was strange about him with no facial expression at all and he was wearing gloves in July? He seemed slightly familiar. I didn't get a good look at the guy.

The other two seemed to be also close friends, male about 6'0 with a faux hawk cut, and he was with a 5'7 woman with short curly red hair.  She caught me staring at her and the man she was with gave me a polite smile and a small wave, I nodded and smiled at her back.

I checked my watch the time was 11:46 pm I look at my watch in shock, pulling out my wallet and paying for the drinks "im sorry Yelena I didn't realize how late it was I have work in a few hours I hope u understand "

I started walking out saying my goodbyes to Josie, I kept looking at my watch "I had a nice time too thank you y/n for the drinks"  I stop im my tracks in shock at what I heard

I never gave her my name

I turn around giving her an uneasy smile " I had a nice time with you Yelena goodnight " as I walk out of the bar I start walking towards my apartment, I stop at a crosswalk waiting for the light to turn " what do you mean people are following me?"  showing a shock expression across my face.

saying under my breath" how many are there?" I stayed silent for a moment looking around but not behind me"4 behind me 2 on the roof/air". When it was time to walk I started walking fast. I couldn't hear anything else besides the footsteps behind me. I started walking faster past my apartment complex.

I walk until the next light still hearing their footsteps, I quickly turn to the right and start running, swiftly maneuvering around people trying not to hit them, running into an alleyway making it towards the roof using a fire escape.

Jumping from roof to roof hearing things fly by my head
"I have a visual on the target," the man with wings says "he's almost at the end of the street he has nowhere to go"

Hearing those words I looked forward and he was right. It was the end of the street. I ran full speed towards the ledge and jumped towards the next building over.  As I jumped another man in a metal suit blasted me. It felt like a strong punch of air, as I started flying toward the ground.

hitting the ground. It broke around me like a meteor hitting earth
I got out of the hole I made, looking at my surroundings and seeing the scaffolding and support beams of an unfinished building  " no, not yet they'll be here soon be ready" On cue, 4 people jumped the fence and 2 others landed circling me

Looking at them most of them are holding guns
Others holding up a shield, bow, guns, or glowing palms
And of course, we got on the goddamn avenger's radar

Iron man " alright hands up, rush hour " while aiming his repulsors and rockets at me Raising my right hand and clenching my fist  With some force, I hit my left shoulder relocating it Showing no facial expression  Lifting both my hands up Captain America " get rid of anything u have on you "  Putting my hands down, I sigh "and I just went for a drink"

Reaching for the zipper of the jacket hearing a gun cock Slowly unzipping my jacket Taking it off and threw it towards them, while Hitting the ground hearing metal clank together as a knife falls out, I Pulling out my phone, wallet, and 5 other knives from my person, I just stand there  "That's everything I assure you,  " saying with a smile.

They all look at each other and back at me " what are you planning " Captain America says "I'm not planning anything I'm going to walk out of here without a scratch on me" oh and what makes you say that" a man with a bow says, I look at him " because we are stronger than you think"

(Hi I hope u enjoyed the first part I know it's a little long and spead up, but the next few parts are going to be a little slow just to flushing out the detail of thing )
