The new enemies

Chapter 1: Car Chase

Deanna's P.O.V

Pressing harder on the gas pedal I spun the steering wheel left and shifted into fourth gear. The road ahead of me came close at great neck speeds and then disappearing in a blur. Glancing in my rearview I watched the four cars in pursuit of me speed down the deserted roads after my car.

With a hushed curse I shifted into fifth gear and held down the gas pedal. Non of us showed signs of stopping as we continued down the blank roads at top speeds. "Ah fuck." I said as a road turn came into view up ahead. With a roll of my eyes I dropped back down into fourth gear and then third.

With a spin of my wheel I turned the corner onto another long straight where I shifted back up into fourth gear. After a moment I shifted gear again into fifth and then finally into sixth. The rush of speed ran though my veins but with another glance up I remembered I was being chased.

"Mockingbird." Bruce's voice rang though the radio the car had installed. Taking my left hand from the wheel I pressed a button on the dash to let me reply at will.

"Yes my dear Dr Banner?" I asked leaning back in the leather chair slightly.

"Are you really that relaxed about being in a high speed car chase?" Beth asked over the radio.

"Adrenaline, it feels amazing." I replied. "You didn't want to do it." I reminded her.

"For a very good reason, one slip up and you could die." Beth stressed.

"Confidence boost Angel, thanks." I replied.

"Girls nows not the time!" Bruce snapped, causing me to take a fleeting glance at the radio. "Deanna about three miles ahead the road your on burns out and then you reach the streets. Remember get them to where the others are waiting to take them out." The doctor instructed.

"Yeah about that." I spoke "How many teams do we have to take out a car each?"

"Three teams." Steve answered. "Me and Angel, Clint and Natasha, Tony and Thor."

"Aw shit. Okay take out the first three, I've currently got four tailing me. The last one will chase me, it's the fastest car they have tailing me. It's holding back, they must have known about the plan." I said as the streets of Texas came into view. With a sigh a dropped into fifth gear.

After a moment I dropped into fourth and then third gear. By this time my car came off the dirty road and onto the tarmac covered roads of Texas. As I drove I blocked out as the others spoke about the plan until something crashed. I jumped slightly but kept my cool as I drove.

"What was that?" I asked as I weaved in and out of cars, my pursuers following me closely.

"That was-" Bruce paused and then sighed. "Sofia."

"Oh, the new scientist?" I asked.

"Yeah hi!" A female voice said happily. "Are you Mockingbird or Angel?"

"I'm Mockingbird ma'am." I replied. "Oh for fuck sake Steve I'm copying you now!" I complained.

"Hey you said that with a Texas accent!" The Captain defended.

"I've spent to much time here." I shrugged. "Anyway it's nice to finally talk to you Sofia. Sorry we haven't been there to meet you personally but you came while we were here in Texas."

"Thank you and I hope to meet you all soon. Dr Banner has spoken highly of you all when I asked him." Sofia replied.

"Well I'm Angel and we should be back tomorrow if today goes well." Beth spoke up.

"Which reminds me, Tony, Thor I'm almost to you." I added.

"Yeah I see you, careful baby bird." Tony replied.

"Take it out." I mumbled as I turned another corner just past where Tony and Thor were waiting. Glancing at the rearview mirror I watched as the front car chasing me disappeared and the others sped up slightly. "Clint, Natasha."

"We see you Mockingbird." Natasha replied as red hair appeared in my line of sight. "Bring them in." With another spin of the wheel I turned another corner before weaving in and out of other cars.

"Cap, Angel you're going to have to be careful." I said as I watched the traffic ahead of me. "The road is fairly full."

"Don't worry, we'll be careful." Steve replied.

"How many times have I heard that" I mumbled. "I'm on your straight, take it out." The third car behind me disappeared almost instantly. "Okay Bruce I need you to find me another clear road or dirt track, I need a straight to run him out."

"I'm on it!" The curly haired doctor replied.

"Target one acquired!" Tony yelled from the radio. "We're on our way to base."

"Target two apprehended." Clint said, "Taking him back to base now."

"Target three secure." Beth added "Mockingbird it's all up to you now to take on the fourth and get him back to base."

"Yeah, yeah I know. Banner do we have an opening?" I questioned, looking at my side view mirror to see the my final pursuer gaining sped and weaving quickly in between all the other cars on the road.

"There's one!" Sofia said.

"Sofia, I can't see what you can see or where you're pointing." I explained. "Shit! You're going to need to tell me quickly, this is getting dangerous! They're beginning to not care about the others on the road!"

"What did you expect its HYDRA." Steve sighed.

"About a mile ahead, there's a small slip road. No one uses it and it will take you back to the dirt tracks." Bruce explained. "There you can get back up to sixth gear."

"Great thanks guys, I'll contact you when I'm done!" I chirped before disconnecting my side of the radio. With one more glance in my rearview mirror I smirked and slipped down the slip road. "Bring it on." As soon as I was on the dirt track I shifted into fourth, fifth then sixth gear.
