All of HYDRA was on edge. Every base, hideout, lab, or storage unit was on red alert, preparing for any worst-case scenario that could come up during the event that they became compromised, especially (y/n)'s base. At the moment, it was on the receiving end of a long list of hate mail and threats from HYDRA HQ, and the one receiving them was none other than the Sergeant. The old man grumbled to himself as he sipped his coffee, pacing the computer desk area that was placed a few steps higher than everywhere else in the room. Screens all across the room were flashing from images to documents, as others were showing satellite images of New York. They were doing everything to find an exact location on Agent (l/n).
"Sir?" a woman asked as she stood in attention behind her superior.
"Yes?" he asked.
"I have some news, sir," she told him.
"Well, don't just stand there waiting like we have all day! Spit it out!" he shouted, his voice resounding against the wall of the room, abruptly silencing the rest of the workers. "Get back to work!" he yelled, turning around to face the agent behind him, her face decorated with alarm as everyone else in the room scrambled back to work as if nothing had happened.
"Well?!" he said.
"Y-yes, sir, sorry, sir. We just found the location of Agent (l/n)," she said.
"The location... Is it good news or bad news?" he asked.
"I'm afraid it's bad news, sir. She's in Stark-"
"Fucking hell!" he exclaimed before she could finish her sentence, shutting her up and causing a tiny bead of sweat to form on her neck.
She quickly wiped it away while he wasn't looking, not wanting to show signs of weakness in his presence. "B-but I do have good news, sir!" she quickly added. The Sergeant took a deep breath, a vein twitching in his forehead.
"It better be good," he grumbled, holding his hands behind his back as he glared at her.
"Do you know the current Sergeant Major of the base?" she asked him.
"Mike?"
"Yes,"
"Wait, Mike from the Christmas party, or Flasher Mike?"
"Umm, Christmas Mike,"
"Alright, go on,"
"Well, he recently had a heart attack while... participating in nightly activities," she told him slowly as she spoke her last few words.
"Good for him. There are worse ways to die nowadays," the Sergeant said
"Anyways... I recently received word that HQ decided to promote you to his rank," she told him.
The old man stood there in stunned silence as he heard the agent's words come out of her mouth. He was going to become a Sergeant Major. And not only that, but Sergeant Major of the base.
Damn, I just stepped up a few ranks, he thought.
"Thank you. Anything else?" he asked.
"Yes, sir. What do we do about Agent (l/n)?" the woman asked him.
"Same as all the other agents who are stupid enough to get captured on their missions. Give them two days before they're added to the new target list," he told her darkly.
"B-but sir, it's (l/n)'s first failed assignment, and she's sixteen. Not to mention, she's an important asset to HYDRA. Shouldn't we send a recovery team and put her through disciplinary action?" the agent asked, an imploring look on her face.
The Sergeant looked back at her as she asked him that. Her whole body froze as he glared at her, the look in his eyes rendering her nerves to stop reacting as her heart completely stopped and her veins turned to ice. She watched with fearful eyes as he stepped right in front of her.
