Sorrowful Sinner

#2

I ran down the alley way and jumped over some old crates and heard gunfire. I ran through a hole in a fence and someone grabbed my foot. I kicked them instinctively and grabbed my bag and started running again.

I felt people's footsteps behind me. Then someone pulled me to the side hard and a hand clamped over my mouth.

"Shh Shh don't scream." A boys voice said.

He moved his hand and I turned around. It was Spider-Man or more commonly known as Peter Parker. I pulled out my gun and aimed it at his face.

"Tell me why I shouldn't shoot you right now." I said quietly.

"Ehm, uh there- isn't a good reason other than you shouldn't shoot me because you would be in a lot of trouble."

"I already am Parker." I said and shot his shoulder.

He ran and held his shoulder tightly to stop the bleeding I kept running and was stopped by all of the Avengers. "Maggie you can't go anywhere."

I didn't say anything. Just watched them. "I- I can't go with you people." I said backing away the way I came.

"You don't have a choice." Natasha yelled.

"Everyone has a choice!"

"Not criminals." She said stepping forward.

"Speak for yourself." I scoffed. "We're in the same boat. I've heard of the red room and who you were. Who you are."

"I'm not the same -."

"But you ARE a criminal, you have killed just as many people as I have." She took another step forward. "Stop Natasha." I said holding the gun tightly.

"What shoot me like you shot Peter? Or that officer?"

"They're not dead are they?" Everyone looked at me. "I didn't kill them because he didn't tell me to."

"Who's he?"

"The big man." I said and pulled out a smoke grenade and threw it. I ran back out of the alley way and down the street.

"MAGGIE!" Bucky yelled and Natasha tackled me.

"GET OFF OF ME!" I screamed.

"Maggie calm down." She said pinning me down.

"No I don't want to go, I'll stop. Get off Natasha please." I said and brought my knee up to her stomach and knocked the wind out of her.

I scrambled to my feet and started to run but I heard a loud pop and felt a sharp pain in my stomach. I looked down and saw a line of blood start to flow through my shirt. I looked back and saw the Avengers running at me and a police officer with his gun pointed at me.

I looked back at my stomach and felt my knees buckle under me. I heard someone scream no and people ran over to me. I fell to the ground and put my hand over the wound.

People started to surround me saying stuff I didn't understand. My vision was blurry and it was hard to breathe.

"I can't- breathe." I choked out.

"You're going to be fine." Bucky said brushing my hair out of my face. "We are going to help you because we may not be able to save everyone but we can save you." He said.

"I don't want to die." I whispered.

"You're not okay." He said and they lifted me up. I screamed out in pain and was put into a helicopter. "Bucky." I said after all I could hear was the helicopter and the medic.

"I'm here I'm here." He said grabbing my hand.

"They're going to put me in a cell aren't they?" I groaned.

"I won't let-."

"I think I deserve it. The boss man whatever the hell his name is." I sucked in a deep breath. "Told me that the people that hurt him hurt my parents and little sister. So I had to kill them to avenge their deaths. I was so stupid." I said wiping away some tears.

"I could've tried to escape or something. I should've done something. 100. I've killed 100 people, how am I supposed to live with that?"

"You have to forgive yourself first. Everything is going to work out. I promise." He said and squeezed my hand. "Just relax."

I held onto his hand and we rode to the avengers head quarters having a relatively quiet ride.
