Love To Hate

Part eight

Kate waited until the compound was all asleep, it was almost three in the morning, when she grabbed her already packed bag, slung it over her shoulder, then quietly headed out of the building and around to the garage, where she didn't care now if they woke up, started her engine, and drove from the place, not looking back, as she drove from there, on the twenty-two hour drive from New Jersey, to Oklahoma.

The scenery was refreshing, but Kate couldn't quite enjoy it, as she only had one thing on her mind. And that was to put a final end to Wilson Fisk.

Bucky woke up with a jolt, at the sound of a motorbike driving. It took him a few seconds to realise what he had heard, before pulling back the bedsheets, and getting out of the bed. Something was telling him that Kate had left the compound.

"Friday, gimmie a location on Agent Jones" He called out.

He hated talking to that thing, it wasn't natural.

"Certainly Sergeant Barnes" She paused. "Agent Jones just left the compound, by the main gate, would you like me to call her for you?"

"It's fine"

He picked up the cell phone on the coffee table, and brought up her number, finding her name and hitting call, but it went straight to her voicemail. Meaning she had turned it off.

"Friday, do you know if she has her cell phone with her?"

"I'm locating the last signal in her apartment in the compound"

"Right"

Bucky left his place, walked down the hall and opened her door, finding the bed hadn't been slept in, and there, on the night stand, was her cell phone.

"Damnit" He growled.

Bucky was about to leave, when he saw the glow from her laptop on the desk, going over and opening it, he quicky scanned through the document that Kate had clearly been looking at. The more he read on her computer, the more he realised Kate had been so focused on finding Fisk, and doing her own investigation.

Bringing the laptop with him, he quickly put on some clothes, telling Friday to alert the team that Kate had gone. Then headed to the common room.

Minutes later, they all headed through to the room, seeing him fully dressed.

"What do you mean Kate's left the compound?" Tony asked, standing now at the kitchen unit.

"I mean, she's gone looking for Fisk"

"She knows where he is?" Steve questioned.

"She's been doing her own investigation, probably" Bucky answered. "We have to assume she found a location in those files on her computer"

Natasha had the computer now, looking through everything, trying to piece together the thing that Kate had seen.

"There isn't anything here that we don't already know" She claimed, as she opened the browser history.

"Did you hear her leave?" Tony then asked.

"I was woken by the motorbike, so, maybe, but not in time to stop her"

"Right, we need to know what we are gonna be doing, when we get to wherever it is we are going" Tony then said. "If she has a location on where he is, there is a high chance, that is where this bomb is going to be"

"Hang on, who's Maya?" Natasha asked.

They looked around at her.

"Fisk's adopted daughter, why?" Tony replied.
