Dove and Dart (Under Extreme Editing)

Dirtbags and Danger

James:

"I am going to kill that sorry son of a-"

"Daniella calm down. Getting angry doesn't accomplish anything." I placed my hands on her shoulders and she slumped down in her wheel chair.

She had somehow woken up to Dove's distress call, her and I had been sleeping down in the infirmary for the cyborg attack had kept her from jumping, maybe just psychological, but I am not sure. And she couldn't get into the wheelchair without help. So she had yelled for me to wake up, but the two of us didn't make it in time.

Luckily Ethan did.

She scowled at the window that Josh had escaped out of.

"What did she mean by that?" Sage asked clutching her pink robe around herself tighter. Buzz had an arm around her and she leaned on him for support as she was dead tired.

Ethan shrugged. "She just said there was another Skywalker before she collapsed down."

I scratched the back of my head. "That's a Star Wars reference."

They all stared at me.

"Sorry, I always forget that most of us didn't have a normal life. Star Wars is a movie series, it's amazing in many ways, but we can't get into that right now. Basically she was using the reference to say that there is someone out there either related to her or like her."

"Who set off the alarm early this time?"

"Barton." Daniella greeted as Clint shuffled into the room, Natasha right behind him.

"Barnes." He responded, squeezing her shoulder as he walked over to Dove's bed.

"She was attacked by Josh."

Natasha glanced out the window. "So he got away?"

I nodded.

She quickly moved off, already contacting personal to help apprehend Josh.

"Any idea on what caused her to pass out?"

"He was choking her when Ethan came in."

Clint observed the bruises forming on Dove's neck with a grim expression. "Still, she should've just caught her breath and been fine. This looks like she was being drained somehow."

"Glad to see I am not the only one wide awake this time of night." Tony strolled in and glanced at Dove. "Let's let her rest and we can ask her about what happened in the morning. We should probably have someone guard her room for the rest of the night though."

"I've got it." Adrian offered.

Ethan was about to volunteer when Adrian had cut him off.

"No offense man, but you look awful, you need to get that cut looked at."

Apparently Josh had smacked Ethan upside the head with a glass bottle and it had cut Ethan's head and blood was now running down his cheek.

I began to push Daniella's chair out of the room when she told me to stop.

"Ethan, come here."

Everyone stared in utter disbelief as Daniella told someone to get close to her.
