All Of Me (Peter Parker x Reader)

Chapter 9

I missed, she thought, her heart flipping over and over again. Her heart rate started to increase faster as the seconds ticked away, and her body began to take breaths more frequently.

"Shit," she muttered, looking up from her eye scope, (e/c) eyes looking across to the building across the street. She watched as people ran amuck in a panicked haze. She could hear the screaming, and the honking of horns the cars blared from people pouring out of the doors on the ground floor.

Come on, you can't be dumb enough to stay in there, she thought, watching the streets for her targets. Finally, she watched as Anthony Stark and Virginia Potts staggered out of the venue, their hands intertwined as they looked around at the chaos that ensued around them.

"So my job is to kill Virginia Potts?" (y/n) asked as she picked up a file that was thrown her way from the Sergeant, who stood at the end of the table opposite from her. They were in the higher-ups' mission control room again, though under different circumstances. Ms. Elor was gone, having left the second the girl was where she was supposed to be. (Y/n) looked at her superior, who shook his head.

"Not quite. That would be too easy for you. You're killing not only her, but someone else as well. Open it," he ordered, gesturing to the file.

Flipping it open, she saw not only a picture of Ms. Potts but a man whom she knew well from her time in HYDRA.

"Stark," she said.

"Killing him while everything thing is hell is our best chance. No Avengers, the Vision guy is always away, his best ally is paralyzed and resting at his home, and he has some amateur bug helping him. He is vulnerable. As is Ms. Potts," Sergeant told her. (Y/n) looked away from him, and back at the picture.

"I see. Not only are we killing one of our biggest enemies, but we're also killing the woman who would inherit everything he has. The company will be in chaos, and we can take it," she thought aloud.

"Precisely. And our guest can be given another shot, seeing as she failed last time," he grumbled, sitting down and pulling a cigar and a lighter from the inside of his uniform. He lit the end of the cigar, taking a drag from it.

"She's new, and took a job she knew she couldn't handle. And on top of that, she ignored her job for a slice at revenge. Petty," she said bluntly.

"Yeah, well, not everyone can be a model student like you. So shut the fuck up and get going within the next two hours!"

(Y/n) took a deep breath. She had to focus. With a record like hers, failure would not be taken lightly. And while she would never admit it, she knew that it would cost her life someday. And she didn't want to start now. It was so easy, seeing as they were just standing in the middle of the street, unaware of the danger above.

"Tony, what happened!" Pepper yelled, her voice barely breaking through the screams and cars all around her and Tony. Her heart raced and breathing heavily as her eyes darted from one thing to the next.

Tony watched as she began to panic, and he let go of her hand, grabbing onto her shoulders to make her focus on him, locking eyes. "Hey, we'll be ok," he told her. "But for now, we need to get our heads together and take care of this. Ok?" he asked slowly, his calm voice blurring out everything else that was going on around them.

Pepper looked at him before nodding her head, taking a deep breath to soothe her nerves. She looked around, the sounds and sights of her surroundings coming back to her.

"Alright," she said. "Thanks, Tony. We need to call the police and ambulance in case people got hurt. Go get your suit, and call Peter. I'll call Happy, and he's with May, no doubt. I'll see you later," she said. Tony nodded his head, turning away to walk off until Pepper grabbed his hand and turned him back as she placed a quick kiss on his lips before walking off as if nothing happened.
