"Everyone for the summer program this way!"

Aly followed a couple of people over to a lady in a lab coat, she stood quite tall and had long black hair that was slicked back into a ponytail.

She began reading out loud from a sheet as the kids around her raised their hands at the sound of their names, Aly sighed to herself; she'd just left school for the summer now it felt like she was there again, hopefully, this would all be worth it.

"Alyson Parker" the woman called looking around eagerly, Aly let out a hum in response and the black-haired woman raised an eyebrow at her.

"I really liked your query letter, Alyson, you have quite the brain for biochemistry" she stated, watching Alyson through the brim of her nose.

Alyson shrugged her shoulders "yeah, well... I can never stop talking about bio... chemistry."

This piqued the interest of a girl standing beside her "oh really I'd love to hear your thesis on.."

"Where are the bathrooms sorry? I shouldn't have drunk that extra large cherry coke dammit was so ready to talk about... science" Aly grunted exaggerating her arms as she was directed towards the bathroom.

She left in a hurry, darting into the bathroom quickly and leaning back on the door, she didn't know how long she could keep the act up; she was a terrible liar.

She took a couple of minutes to de-stress then left the restroom, looking over to see the group comparing essays, and silently cursing Peter's plan.

As she moved forward someone caught her eye, a redhead walking towards the elevator. Someone she recognized instantly; Natasha Romanoff.

Aly snuck behind a corner out of sight and watched as the redhead neared the elevator, she'd never be able to catch up to her before it shut. She brought her right arm forward and lifted it upwards "please work" she mumbled as she flicked her wrist, she still wasn't exactly sure how to ... propel her energy to get it to do what she wanted but she tried anyway. 

Nothing happened, Alyson swore under her breath and then tried again; she was running out of time as Natasha was just about to step inside.

Aly closed her eyes and breathed out slowly before raising her palm again, still out of sight from behind the corner.

She flicked her wrist and sure enough, a small spark of energy flew towards the doors causing them to momentarily beep and stay open. Alyson smiled to herself as she watched the black widow move towards the stairs instead.

She followed behind her discreetly, not really sure of her own plan.

The stairwell was empty with a spiraling staircase that led up the never-ending floors of the building.

Natasha walked up them fiercely, as Alyson gulped and followed behind her a couple of floors down to not be seen, now and then the redhead would turn to look in Aly's direction but she'd moved out of the way before she was spotted.
