???'s POV:
Whe-where am I? Why is it so dark? Who are those people here with me? Who is me? My memory was foggy, yet my eyes were still shut. I only blinked for a look of my environment for when I fully wake up anyway. The last thing I remember was a conversation I have with someone in the White House, I think. I don't know who I was talking to. I didn't want anyone to know that I was awake, so I remain asleep and silent. I was still conscious of the world around me and I was able to get a better understanding of who I was.

"I don't think it's a good idea!"

"Quiet, she's resting. She was shot after all."

So I was shot, huh? Makes sense, I mean my head does hurt.

"Still, what other ideas do you have in mind besides, oh I don't know, not forcing anything out of her?" I made sense on who was talking like a loud mouth...

Hawkeye. Oh crap, I'm excited to hear what he's talking about. I really wasn't. This is were I wish I was knocked out by the drugs in my body.

"Well, I was thinking on using that machine that Stark used on both of them."

"Now that ain't a bad idea."

Machine? What are they planning on doing to me? What information do I have hidden? I kept still even though I wanted to get up and get the answers I needed. Later, I heard another voice, more familiar because I heard her.

"So, you were basically being an idiot and slipped into the nuclear waste and didn't disintegrate after being in there for thirty minutes tops?!"

"Yes."

"Now I wonder why I'm your friend?"

"Shut up."

Nuclear waste? Ashlyn is saying some bull crap about someone. Who in their right mind would fall in?!

"Hold up, I hear someone talking."

Shit!

"Who, RoPo?"

"I think it's, but it can't be. What I'm trying to say is that, I hear AJ talking."

Shit, shit, shit, shit, shit...

"Angel? Are you awake?" I guess there's not point in pretending, thought I still had a fair-

"Who was being an idiot and fell into nuclear waste?! Why do Hawkeye and Black Widow want to hook me up to a machine?! Why can that dude read my mind?!" I got up as fast as you may snap. In what I did was a horrendous idea because I felt woozy afterwards. I wish I didn't do that.

Oh shit.

"No need to curse like that, AJ."

"Shut up, nuclear waste. Perhaps that's why you're an idiot." I wasn't happy with RoPo for more reasons than one. I collapsed back down and cover my face with the provided blanket on my person. What was I thinking? Well, questioning life is all! Hey, fun fact for you espionages, and RoPo: we are all slowly dying every second of our lives! There, question your existence if you will!

RoPo's POV:
I questioned life after reading AJ's mind, I know now not to read her mind at all. It was surprisingly weird seeing her well, in the most strange ways possible. For what I can gather, Angel was slowly waking up but was too lazy to actually get up. Or she was actually resting like we all keep telling her to do. After that whole debacle, I slowly walked backwards to the door. I was a little hungry, I didn't get my food from what Cap wanted to give me. Stark had the idea to give me more to suffer for; I deserved it. I walked into the kitchen and saw that the fridge door was smashed.

Oh f-

I heard loud chewing from my left, I turned and didn't expect much more than that.

"Hulk, what the frick!? Why did you eat all the food?!"

"What? Hulk hungry."

"I was hungry, you green gorilla!" He just continued eating, it made me sad. I was hungry! I needed food! I sadly walked out of the kitchen. I swear I was at the point to cry. I headed back to my room; Stark moved me to a spare room so I wasn't in the crummy cell anymore. I was ready to collapse on to my bed when I noticed a perfectly good burger on my bed with fries. I don't know who brought it but I didn't care if it was now mine. I grabbed the burger and oh man, it was good.

Holy cow, this is the best thing that happened since I got my voice! I was happily eating my dinner when I noticed a person staring at me from across my room. In surprise, I began to choked on my food.

"Are you ok? I'm sorry, I didn't mean to scare you."

"(Cough) Who... the hell are you?!"

"Welp, no one special. Look, I'm not here to bother you. I can leave if that's what you'd like."

"Wait, wait, wait! You ain't going anyway until you tell me who you are." This person was floating; it had no legs. I thought it was a spirit, though she looked an awfully like Antivort. Her hair had a red streak though, I kept my guard up. I ain't letting her fool me.

"I'm not fooling anyone."

"... you can read minds too?"

"Yes, it's part of my abilities. I am a spirit, not one to hurt you. I'm actually the one who brought you that. I saw you were hungry, so I took the time to get it for you."

"... thanks?"

"My name is Dawn. I'm not here as a vengeful spirit or anything. Quite the opposite actually."

"Protect me? From the crazy person calling me 'dad' every time I see it?"

"Welp, yes. I have no intentions hurting you. I wanted to keep you company, assist you in anything you may need, and also give you moral support."

"Huh, that's so kind of you, Dawn. Heck, even your name shows your kindness."

"Thank you. Though RoPo, I wish to tell you something. You don't have to hear it you don't want to."

"Well, now you have me curious. Shoot." There was silence for a moment, it was awkward. Then, Dawn finally spoke.

"The person who keeps stalking you, has intentions to give you a miserable life. Turn you against your own will. The enemy who calls herself as Antivort is helping this stalker. I fear that one of your friends may be under her control. I need you to be vigilant at all times, you didn't just get your telepathy for nothing. Use it to enter others minds and uncover who is under that demons control. You are protected by my barrier, Antivort can't corrupt you again. Just be careful, this timeline is on your hands."
