The Captains Daughter

chapter 6

Blake and the others were nearing their destination when Blake started hyperventilating and dropped from where she was standing.

"Wanda, Wanda, help I need you to calm me down. She said between gasps of air.

Wanda places her fingers on Blake's temples and calmed her down in an instant.

"What happened?" Wanda questioned as she took her hands off Blake's face.

"I recognize the base. They made me kill his mom they made me kill Asher's mom in that base. Right in front of him. I remember now. Then they tortured me and made him watch. Then they took me away to another base and left him there to die." Blake said begining to come out of her flashbacks.

It was silent in the jet as Blake breathed heavily making an effort to calm down a bit more.

"Blake are you okay to do the mission?" Bucky asked a few minutes later as he bent down and cupped her face in his hands. It was a small gesture but it calmed her down a lot since they had similar trauma.

"Yes." She said standing up. "Thanks."

Blake didn't mean for that to happen but she couldn't help but feel a little hope now. She was gonna find Asher. She didn't know whether it was Wanda's magic or her own feelings but it Shure felt good to have hope again.

The team left the jet and snuck into the base. It was compleatly deserted except for a few old guys at every entrance so far. Blake and Bucky knocked them out with ease and went inside. The team all split up and Blake went straight to the cells where she last saw Asher.

Her heart was racing. She didn't have time for trauma or flashbacks right now. She had a mission.

Blake dashed round a corner into a sun lit hallway that led to the cells. It was about the brightest thing about this place and it still had a cold atmosphere about it.

Quiet footsteps began to grow louder as another figure turned a corner. The figure stopped before they stepped into the light. Blake could tell he was holding a gun towards her so she raised hers as well.

"Wie heißt du?" The figure asked.

"Blake." Blake responded still holding the gun In front of her.

"Wait really, is it really Blake, step closer." The figure requested. The figure lowered the gun but she didn't dare drop her guard yet.

"You first." She retaliated.

"We'll go at the same time." He compromised.

The two of them both stepped forward a few paces into the light.

Blake was so shocked she couldn't get words out for a few seconds. The gun fell out of her hands and she stepped forward a bit to get a better look.

"Asher?"
