Chapter Fifteen:

Extremis Pt.2 

Clint and Natasha kept to the shadows of the halls as they made their way down the hall, watching the different groups of guards going by. They knew Hydra and AIM were searching for them, so they knew they had to be extra careful not to be seen.

"Did you hear Modok has a new experiment going?" one guard stated as they walked by.

"Yeah, on one of those prisoners that escaped."

"Think she will live?"

"Did any of the others live? More than likely we will just be dumping her body along with all the others."

"Shame, the girl was a real looker."

As they kept on walking, Clint and Natasha glanced at one another, a mutual understanding crossing their expressions. They dropped down behind the two chatting guards and before they knew what hit them, had rammed their knees into their guts and pressed them against the walls, knives against their captives throats.

"Where is the girl and Modok", they demanded.

"Like I will tell you anything, honey", the one Natasha barked out.

Nat was not impressed and made sure to show it as she slammed the butt of her knife into his head.

Clint gestured to the man Natasha was standing over as he looked back at his own captive, the really talkative one.

"Want to join him?" he asked.

"N-No, I will tell you. They are in the labs, Modok took her there while Red Skull took the other two."

Natasha frowned, coming closer to them, making the man being held against Clint's arm get even more nervous. "T-The one called Captain America and the Hulk."

Clint frowned and Natasha scowled.

"Where did they take them?!"

"I don't know, honest. I only dealt with Modok who sent out word to try and find the rest of you. I swear, that's all I know."

Natasha nodded and Clint rammed him into the wall, knocking the man out cold as he fell to the floor.

"We need to find Thor. He didn't mention him, so I assume he is still free."

"Should we get to Toni first?" Clint asked.

"I am afraid it may already be too late", Natasha whispered as the lights above their heads flashed.

Thor, for the hundredth time, pulled Hammer and the cowardly Baron to a stop as more guards passed by. They had overheard some mentioning that the Baron was wanted as a traitor, so the man was none too eager to be found by Hydra. He had been the leader! He was angered that with Red Skull's sudden appearance, everything had gone to pot. That being said, he knew his best bet at staying alive was with these so called Avengers.

Thor on the other hand was not at all pleased that he had to be the one to babysit these mortals. He merely wanted to find his friends and return back home.

The sound of voices once again coming down the hall, had him backing into the shadows. He sighed in relief however when he noticed two other shadows following them close behind. He was about to cause a distraction, when the lights overhead went out with a shatter and the two guards grunted as who he could only assume to be his friends, knocked them out.

"Friends?" Thor called to the dark.

It was silent a moment, before Clint called out.

"Thor?"
