Aero's third POV
A few hours later

So many thoughts were running in circles through Aero's mind that she was almost seeing doubles.

Hunter is gone. She thought that if she said it enough that the pain would subside, but she was wrong. It just made her feel a new emotion; rage. Undeniable, bloodthirsty, rage.

Aero, not being able to contain said rage, stands and starts to walk out of the palace. Peter grabs her wrist.

Aero turns to look at him.

"Let go." She snarled.

"No. I know that face. You are always trying to get revenge on people who hurt her. You also tried to protect her, Aero, you don't-"

"And where did that get her Peter!? I wasn't able to protect her! I wasn't fast enough! If I had gone after that van, then Hunter would be alive!" She shouts.

"Then why didn't you?!" Peter shouts in return, earning the eyes of everyone in the room.

"Because if I did, then you would be dead, too! I didn't know they would kill her, so I acted on what I knew!" She yelled.

"Then maybe you shouldn't let your mind have control all the time." He says softly.

She kept her cold hard expression as she wrenched her hand from his grasp. She broke into a full blown sprint out of the room. She was already in her suit, so she surrounded herself in her wind power and took to the sky. She soured through the skies until she caught sight of a small warehouse and the black van. She landed in front of the door and slid it open. It made a loud noise, and three men turned to look at her.

"Who the hell are you?!" One shouts.

"I'm pissed." She growls.

"Get 'er." The man says.

The two other men at his sides run at her, but she burns one and pushes one back with water.

"What are you?!" The burned one asks, terror leaking into his voice.

"I'm the person whose going to kill you." She says, but as she was about to rain hell fire on them, quiet literally, the untouched man shoots something at her and it hits her neck.

She starts to feel dizzy as she falls into the arms of the soaked one. He wears an expression that's looks almost sorry.

Aero's head falls forward as she slowly wakes up. She's sitting upright, tied to a chair and a gag in her mouth.

"What do we need this one for?" The man that looked guilty asks.

"Well, we can use her as leverage, but more importantly, she knows wear the base is. We can't risk her leading the others in. The last thing we need is the Avengers on our doorstep." The lead man says.

"This is ridiculous! These are children, and we're treating them like animals!"

"No. Their collateral damage. It's the simple price we have to pay to get revenge." The leader growls.

"You know what? I didn't ask for this." And the nice one starts to walk out, but a guest of wind pushes him from the door.

They all look at Aero as she raises her head to look at them.

"Look whose awake." The burned man says, let's call him Chris.

The leader, we'll name him Drake, comes over and lift her chin with a single finger.
