Out of Time

"I Could've Saved Her."

Third P.O.V

They quickly made their way to the jet. Blood stained their clothes. They each shared a glance, and the tension in the jet was so think could cut it with a knife. Camryn looked at the young girl who was in critical condition. She had blood gushing out of various wounds cover her body. "She'll be okay." Alyssa said placing a hand on her sisters shoulder. "She's so young." Camryn whispered. Alyssa looked over at the girl who had risked her life, to save Alyssa's. "She's strong. She'll make it." Alyssa said. Camryn nodded at her sister. "Take us back to base." Alyssa told the auto-driver. Not a sound was made. Loki was now in the hands of his brother, but they never got back their ear-comm's, so nobody back at Base knew what happened. "Camryn. Are you there?" Nat asked over the radio. "Yea we're here. Flying back to base now." Camryn said. "See you when you get here." Nat said before the jet was once again silent.

The ride back Camryn looked at the girl. The blood had finally stopped, and now she was just sleeping. Her chest rose ever so slightly, her hair fanned out around her head, creating a halo of hair. "Nobody knows. How are they going to react?" Alyssa said, sitting down by her sister. "I don't know. Fury doesn't even know, neither does Nat." Camryn replied. Alyssa leaned her head on her older sisters shoulder. "He's not going to take it well. He'll be a wreck." Alyssa whispered. "I know baby. I know." Camryn said stroking her sisters hair. "I can't think what would have happened, if she hand't taken the hit for me." Alyssa sobbed. "I could in her position." Alyssa sobbed. "Shh. It's okay. You're okay." Camryn said, trying to soothe her sister.

Soon they were back at the base. "She's in critical condition. Get her to I.C.U. NOW!" Hill shouted, as they made their way inside. Everybody noticed a absence from the group that had left. Maybe they though the other was in the I.C.U. with the other. Fury looked at the sisters knowingly. "Go get changed. I'll get the others." He said. They nodded. Alyssa quickly scrubbed her blood off of her body. She couldn't get the feeling of her friends blood off her body. When Alyssa felt that all the blood was gone, she hopped out of the shower and slowly got dressed. She looked at her reflection. Her eyes were blood-shot and puffy. She looked like shit. She took in a deep breath and went to go meet the others. As she passed by she saw the grim looks of other agents faces. She knew that somebody must have told them. She felt the tears welling up her eyes again. "You can't cry. Be strong." Alyssa told herself.

When she reached the interrogation room, Alyssa noticed the worried looks of the people she had put under her spell for so long. "What's going on?" Alicia asked. "That's what I would like to know." Nat said storming into the room. "Evans you've got five minutes to explain." Nat said, glaring at Alyssa. "Where do you want me to start from?" She asked her. "From when you left." Nat said coolly. Alyssa nodded and started her story. "They were coming at us from all directions. There was so much blood. I kept trying to fight them off, but they were too strong. I couldn't fight them off. Just as they were about to kill me, she jumped in front of them and took a spear to the stomach. She was loosing so much blood. Get it off! Get it off!" Alyssa shrieked trying to rub off blood that wasn't there. "Ally. Ally. You're fine. There's no blood on you. You're fine. It's all in the past." Camryn said, hugging her sister. "I couldn't stop her. She lost so much blood. It was pouring out of her body, and I was frozen. I couldn't stop it. His laugh is in my head. Her body is all I see when I close my eyes. I can't stop seeing her. All the blood. So much blood." Alyssa sobbed.

"I couldn't save her. She bleed to death and I just stood there, like a deer caught in the headlights. I could've saved her. It's my fault she's dead. I could've saved her." Alyssa whispered. "It's not your fault." Fury said. "Who was she? Who was the girl?" David asked. "Luna."
