When Evangeline was settled in her hiding spot on the Quinjet again, she curled into a ball, trying to forget those horrible pictures coming to mind. The last thing she remembered before waking up from the nightmares was a Russian voice calling to her. it was the only one that wasn't saying insults in her direction. Still shaken up by the moment, Evangeline tucked her head into her knees and left herself drift to sleep.
One by one, the Avengers loaded the Quinjet, preparing to go home. Clint was lying on an emergency bed, hooked up to many machines to keep him sterilised on the way back to the tower. "As soon as we get back, we can't let him go to Evangeline. He must go to the infirmary to get patched up."
Still responsive and awake, Clint groans at the comment, disappointed that he can't see his daughter. "Clint, you promised that you would be fine and look at you, you're the only one coming home with a problem." Natasha spoke, understanding how her team mate felt.
Clint crossed his arms and grumbled before flinching and dropping his arms back down to his side, remembering his wound.
"Get some rest soldier, you're going to need it." Steve said, patting his comrade's shoulder, avoiding the injury, before walking to a seat where he can rest for a bit.
Although he wouldn't admit it, Steve was excited to go back and tell Evangeline about his mission, feeling like she'd enjoy the story. Steve smiled to himself and closed his eyes, letting sleep consume him.
Thor and Tony were talking about random things while Natasha was with Bruce, just enjoying each other's company. In a corner, completely hidden, Evangeline couldn't seem to get an ounce if sleep. The whole ride back home, the girl was still shaken up from that time. Most would say it's stupid for her to be afraid if that since it would never happen. To Evangeline, those people that talked down to her in that dream were the ones she cared for and loved like her family. It broke her heart to even think that they would be lime that if she were to let Steve die.
Leaning back and reliving the terrible nightmare, Evangeline closed her eyes and waited for landing.
Around 8 in the morning, the Quinjet slowly descended and landed back in New York. "We have arrived!" Tony yelled from the pilot's seat.
"Welcome home," Agent Hill spoke walking into the jet, "Boss, I have some information you might want to know."
"No,no. I'm not the boss, Captain is. I just make us look good. I pay for everything but he's the leader." Tony spoke, voice filled with sarcasm.
Agent Hill then turned to face Steve and began to talk about the twins who were with Hydra. The only thing Evangeline caught before pausing time and walking to her room was, "Pietro and Wanda Maximoff....Super speed and telekinesis."
Evabgeline made her way back to her room and shut the door before letting everything go back to normal. Laying back on her bed, the girl sat up remembering that she had to make it seem as if she were home the whole time. She jumped up and ran into the bathroom after grabbing her clothes to shower.
Walking out of the shower with a towel wrapped around her head, Evangeline plopped herself down onto the small sofa in the corner of her room. The girl looked around and spotted the book that Mali had been crying about non-stop. 'The Fault in Our Stars' is what the title read in white font inside a black cloud shape. Evangeline was about three quarters into the book and although she hated to admit it, it was quite a sad yet cliché story. Before Evangeline picks up the book, she always reminds herself to grab a few tissues for emergencies. "Just in case.." Evangeline murmured to herself, rolling her eyes.
While the brunette girl relaxed in her chair, engulfing herself into the novel, Steve slowly made his way down the hallway to the elevator, leading to the floor Evangeline occupied. Walking inside the elevator, Steve ran into Daphne who was heading in the same direction. The two boarded the machine. "What floor?" Daphne questioned, looking at the taller man.
