A/N Heyyyy, this chapter focuses more on the action and less on the drama so
it's a bit long, I hope it doesn't bore you out though. But if it does, you're welcome to skip to the next chapter ^^

Happy reading!

Second Person's POV

Morning came and the team has gathered in early at the penthouse for an emergency meeting, looking alive despite the energy wasted from last night's party. You're still in bed, snoozing like a champ but your dreams get interrupted by Tony's voice through the intercom.

"Kid, come in! We need you up here, stat!"

You bolt right out of bed and scamper towards the intercom with a messy head of hair, hitting the response button. "I'll be up in 10. I'm so sorry, I just got up."

"Hustle up! This is important."

The intercom beeps and you zip around the room to groom yourself in a matter of 10 minutes. It hasn't been 8 yet but you finish gracefully, merely slipping on your combat boots and tying the laces. You tie your hair into a tight ponytail and jog out of your room, out of the apartment and into the lobby of the Tower.

Due to your haste, you bump into a man and apologize quickly, feeling an
odd shiver slither up your back for no reason. You shake it off and slip into the elevator, joining two staff members in ascending.

What is so urgent that they need you in so early? The elevator stops at the 10th floor and they both get off, leaving you alone to climb the remaining floors.

You eventually come to a stop and stride out of the elevator and into the penthouse, seeing nearly half of the team in their battle attires and Nick, assembled with murmurs emanating from their discussion.

Minus Thor though. You wonder where the big guy has gone to again.

"I'm here!" You notify them of your presence and Bruce motions for you to join in. "What's going on? " You ask curiously, joining their meeting. Nick coughs roughly and straightens the collar of his leather jacket. "We got reports of hundreds of missing people all over the continent. They began disappearing the night before yesterday."

"Do we have a lead?" Your bring your brows together in question and Nat presses her lips together. "As of now, no."

Nick excuses himself for a call and walks away from your spot. You alter your stance and contemplate for a quick moment, snapping out as the sound of footsteps coming from your right captures your attention. Tony and Steve emerge from the hall all suited up. "We may have a lead. A blatant one in fact. This one was just last night." Tony pulls up a holographic video from a glass slide-like tablet and shows it to us.

You narrow your eyes at it as it plays. It's as though it was taken by a security camera looking over a street and to the right, two men emerge from a black car
bringing a case with them. They enter what appears to be a convention center.

What was in that case?

"That guy looks familiar," Nat points out at the video and Tony put in on pause, laying his finger over the guy holding the case. "Guy with the case is Baron Von Strucker, HYDRA's current leader. He's been such a candidate on our watch list these days." He informs sternly, handing intel others have familiarized themselves with except you.

He's of HYDRA and not just of it but their chief.

He's certainly on your thought out death list as well.

"He's responsible, isn't he?" Clint lifts a brow at Tony and Steve and they both shrug, unfortunately. "Could be possible. We need confirmation." Steve states.
