It was early in the morning and we were called down to Bruce's lab because he had to introduce us to something, we stood in two rows and a clothing rack began to spin round presenting different outfits put together "Months ago I began to specifically design suits for each of you, they're made to look like everyday outfits but they still allow you to do everything your normal suits would do, for example, Wanda, yours allows you to control everything and refine it when needed and Nat, yours still allows you to store weapons and everything you would usually need" Bruce explained to all of us as he started handing the different clothing articles to us. when he finally reached me I was handed red boots, black jeans with a belt, black fingerless gloves and a long red jacket. "Everyone get changed then we have to go into the city centre, we'll be walking" Steve announced.

I liked the way it fit my body and it wasn't too different from the suit Bruce originally designed for me when I first moved into the compound, it had the same colours and I still paired it with my crystal red necklace and rings, that Pietro brought me as a welcome back gift.

There was no plan or method to our mission, we couldn't have one simply because we didn't have enough knowledge to plan it out for every possibility, but it came naturally for us to have an initial idea of what we're doing. I stepped out of the bathroom and saw everyone dressed like casual human beings, I put the black baseball cap on top of my head, some were wearing sunglasses and others were wearing scarfs over their mouths to hide their identity. Ever since I became apart of the Avengers, Nat had been teaching me how to speak with more of a New York accent even though my sokovian accent wasn't as strong as Pietro and Wanda's, it still was present through some words and sentences.

"Okay, let's go" Tony spoke and we all walked off towards different entrances of the tower, we had certain pairs that we were walking into the city with, I was walking with Peter and Scott with Bucky, Sam and Nat shortly behind us. I knew where I was to be stationed once we got there and to tune into each other's channels on our communicators to stay in as much contact as possible without being anywhere near each other.

"Where's Wanda and Pietro going to be?" I mumbled, looking down at the street floor

"Just around the corner" Scott answers

"Pete where are you going to be?" I asked

"I'm going to be in the shop, one down from the pretzel shop" the brunette answers, I was to be stationed at the pretzel shop and we would wait in our places until anything happened.

"Alright, I'll see you guys very soon," Scott said as he walked off around the corner

"Good luck Parker" I smiled and hugged him to seem like a casual goodbye, he over exaggerated his laugh as if I just said something funny then walked into the coffee shop.

I pushed the door open to the pretzel place and took a seat at one of the tables close to the windows, I kept my eyes on the floor and adjusted my earpiece but disguised it as playing with a Strand of my ginger hair "Ad are you there?" Steve's voice rung in my ear, I use my hand to cover my mouth

"Yeah, have you seen anything?," I asked with my voice muffled by my hand

"Nothing yet" Steve informed me, the line goes quiet and I begin to hear loud screams from outside similar to the innocent ones from two days ago, I froze on the spot as a commotion rose and people ran out of the shop "Adeline time to get off your ass" Clint's voice brung me back down to earth and I sprinted out of the shop, when I approached the chaotic streets, people were running aimlessly into me, I couldn't see any of the Avengers through the large crowds.

The sound of guns firing filled my head as I got closer to the source of the havoc, I saw silver and red robot-looking creatures whizzing in the air, shooting purple and red beams below them. without hesitation, my hands started moving and my fingers started twitching in the direction of the flying technology, they were getting blown to pieces as I swiped my hands in different ways.

Tony's refractors and Steve's shield were slicing them in half, Peter was swinging around and tangling them up in his webs whilst Clint shot his arrows at the advanced robots. I looked around frantically as the robots began to fight back using more effort; Peter got slug through the side of one of the tall buildings, Tony's blasts were deflected and Clint's arrows were being split in two.

I moved forward and the firing became louder and the city centre became a mess, buildings were torn apart and people were getting injured. The closer I got to the Unknown source, who must be controlling this charade, a voice became more present in my head, it was tormenting me. all of the same symptoms and pain came back to my body, The burning sensation, the same phrase, the weak feeling in my arms but it was more present this Time and it put visions in my head, visions of losing everyone. It felt like I was being drained. We were losing.

I found the strength to fight back whatever was inside of me and pushed my way through the streets, my hair was blowing in my face and my hands glowed brighter than I've ever known, I felt my sight change and my eyes transformed into a dark red...
