My Promise

"Abigail, wake up. Your back." She heard his voice.

She woke up, see that she was on her knees, feeling her arms above her head. She looked around, causing her to panic. The same padded room. The words. Her arms in the chains.

She started to panic even more. She stood from her knees to her feet. She looked around, trying to find a way to escape. She looked up, and saw that the chain looked new, she couldn't break it off.

She started to scream, and trash around. She ran to one corner but was thrown back.

The camera in the right-hand corner showed Tony and Steve what she was doing in the viewing room next door.

Her screams were proving that she was crazy to Tony, but showing Steve that she was scared.

After a few moments, she was sobbing. She gave one last weak pull, then collapsed to her knees.

"Tony, let her go!" Steve said angrily. "She scared."

"I just want to see what will happen. F.R.I.D.A.Y. send in the bot." Tony commanded.

A bot that looks just like a human walked in. She was carrying a silver tray with a syringe, and a little medicine jar that was filled with water.

When the door opened, Abigail's head shot up.

"Okay Miss Ridgewell, time for your medicine!" The bot said.

Abigail quickly climbed up the chain and was near the ceiling she pulled up the chain to help keep her steady up there.

It surprised Tony and Steve. She climbed it like aerial silk dancer. The bot was just staring up at her.

"I once stayed up here for six months, I can stay up here for a long time." The bot walked under her. "Or I could just do this."

And it seemed like slow motion. She let go and spun, and third down. The left heel of her foot went right through the bots head.

The bots body fell around it's shattered, head. Abigail was surprised, even kicking a little piece of its head.

"She hit it perfectly on a point on ahead, that if it was a human, there would be brain matter everywhere," Tony said, looking at the bot.

Steve just stared. She thought it was a human, a killed it with a second thought. He watched her as she climbed back up the chain, like she was a spider, waiting for a fly to enter her web.

"What happened Abi." He questioned himself quietly. He walked closer to the screen.

"Stay back old man, you don't want to ruin those eyes of yours." Tony joked. Steve glared at him but looked back at Abigail.

She sat there, slightly swinging. She sighed and closed her eyes. Everything that happened the last two days was a dream, wern't they? She knew it was too good to be true. Steve was still missing, The Solider was dead, and Howard left her to rot in here.

"It's not what you think!" The WindMaker said, coming out of the ceiling. "This is a cell made by Tony to scare you, to keep you contained."

"How did he even know that I was in a place like this? Or even that it looked like this?" You asked him.

"That witch, when she went into your mind, she must have seen it." He explained. "Maybe I should take her power's from her, and make her a normal human."

"Leave her alone, she is just a child. She couldn't help herself."

"But she could have released him early!"
