"Anxiety. Keep on trying me, I feel it quietly, tryna silence me. My anxiety....."
I sing quietly around a spoonful of ice cream, scrolling through the latest news headlines and lighting up my holographic display.
"Alright, Friday- what's the news?" I ask, leaning back against the couch.
"It seems Clint Barton had a run in with his past. There's a new girl- Kate Bishop. Cameras picked her up. She wields a bow like Barton. Situations resolved now" he answered.
"Good. Keep an eye on her. I want to see how she holds up" I say, sitting my bowl aside.
"Yes, ma'am" he said.
"Anything else?" I ask
"As of now, nothing" he replied.
"Alright." I sigh, brushing away a stray curl from my face.
"Quiet days are good ones" I said
I'm already halfway through a cup of coffee when the hologram flickers to life.
"Okay, Friday" I mutter, stretching.
"what's on the today's agenda?" I ask
"Well...it appears the president has turned into a...giant red hulk. Your security system picked up a conversation- Mr. President has asked Sam Wilson to rebuild the Avengers" he said.
I groaned.
"That son of a bitch. He's definitely been reading files he shouldn't. That was out of spite, no doubt" I said
"Your system also detected him attempting to contact you. However, you've instructed me to block all incoming calls" he said
"Damn it. I did, didn't it.... Where is he now?" I asked
"At the raft. He turned himself in" Friday replied.
A humorless laugh escaped me.
"How the tables have turned. Guess it's time for a visit" I said
I grab my jacket and glasses.
"Let's go pay our ex president a little chat" I mutter
The rafts air hits cold against my suit as I descend through the security doors. A few guards rush over immediately.
"Sapphire? What are you doing here?" One asks
"A lot of things. Where's the president? well ex president" I said
"We'll take you to him"
They lead me down the metallic corridor until I spot Sam Wilson, arms folded, taking to Ross.
"Mind if I join?" I ask, stepping forward.
Sam blinks.
"Sapphire?" He said
"Yeah, it's me. Mr. Ex president. How's life in prison?" I asked
Ross looks rattled but tried to play it off.
"Fine, yeah. Sapphire.... What's your real name?" He asked.
"Story for another time." I turned back to sam.
"We need to talk" I said
He nodded, and we both stoped aside.
I didn't waste a second.
"Ross asked you to rebuild the Avengers" Insaid
He frowns.
"How'd you-" he started.
"Doesn't matter. Listen. If you do this, I want to be the first to know. The world needs the Avengers, they just don't know it yet....And maybe neither do you" I said
Sam studies me for a moment, confusion flickering in his eyes.
"What's your name? Why do i remember flashes of you, but not who you are?" He asked.
"Just promise me that you'll tell me" I said.
