I laughed at Chloe as she hobbled awkwardly down the corridor.
"It's not funny, it's annoying," she complained.
"Don't worry, you'll get used to it," I replied. "I was on crutches for 8 months after my first mission. It took me ages to get used to not having them.
We continued slowly down the corridor to the car park. Just before we reached the door 15 year old Agent Abi Watts came running up to us.
"Agent Elliott, Anaiya," she called, out of breath. "Is it true you're singing at the show on SRM day?"
"Maybe," I replied with a smirk. "I guess you'll just have to wait and see."
She ran off, grinning.
"Singing? SRM day?" Chloe asked, confused.
"SRM day, you know, S.H.I.E.L.D. Resurrection Memorial Day, 31st May. You've celebrated it with us for the past 3 years?" I reminded her.
"I know what SRM day is but what about the singing?" she questioned as we reached the car where Agent Lii Yang was waiting to drive us home.
"The show in the afternoon on SRM day. I'm performing. It was supposed to be a surprise but, I guess not anymore."
She laughed.
"Never mind. I don't like surprises anyway."
"Yes you do."
"No I don't."
And we continued like that all the way home, laughing. When we got home, 10 mins later, I got a call from Fury.
"Hello," I answered.
"Anaiya, he replied. "I have some good news for you. The hard-drive you recovered is fully decrypted. It seems to be a backup drive for hydra's main computer system. There is a lot of interesting information on there which will be sorted and acted upon accordingly, some of which mentions Tayla."
My heart beat faster in my chest.
"It's not fully sorted yet," he continued. "But it includes members, bank records, base locations, everything we need to have a shot at taking down Hydra. I'll have the tech guys on it all night and we should have something on Tayla in the morning. I'll call you at 9. Have a nice weekend."
"Bye," I hung up.
As soon as I did Chloe grabbed my phone and clicked on the music app.
"We are sorting out your songs for SRM day right now," she announced.
"Erm, OK," I replied, sitting down. This was going to take a while.
