On the way to the hospital with Bruce it went quite quickly, he just let me lay there holding onto his hand, whilst i was assessing the whole situation. I felt like shit. I wanted him to tell me what had happened, but he just replied with "I'll tell you after they fix you up and then i will i promise".As he watched the blood still pouring from my face. "I'll have to get stitches."i told Bruce whilst sighing.He replied with"Don't worry you'll be fine". He responded with a small smile.
We were at the hospital now as they wheeled me in, i got a few dirty looks as people figured out who i was and i just glared at them right back. They set me on a bed and went away to get some stitches. Bruce was just sat on a chair next to me watching patiently. I had no idea where i was or what time it was. I asked Bruce and he said it was 5am and we were in Russia.
"RUSSIA!" I bolted up quickly forgetting the pain i was in as i winced and lay back. "why am i in Russia?"i said persistently."I don't know, you tell me"he replied.I instantly thought of the red room but why would they want to know where the avengers were?"Do you think it's something to do with the red ro-"He stopped talking as the nurses came in to stitch my wounds up.I gave Bruce a worried look.
They first gave me an anaesthetic, but it was no use on me. The stitches hurt like hell as i held onto Bruce's hand pretty sure close to breaking it however he could deal with the pain. When it was done they left me and Bruce alone as they told me to stay for a few more hours as the sun was rising to have a nap. I said i was fine because i wanted to leave as quickly as possible, But Bruce disagreed and decided we should stay and i didn't feel like arguing.
I couldn't go to sleep as i was imagining all the possible things that could have happened and who i was captured by and how they knew where i was.I was cut deep in my thoughts as Bruce said "I got a text from Tony saying they slept on the quinjet we came on and they are ready to go when we are".
With that i replied "we should go then" and Bruce finally gave in and said "Fine i'll go and sign you out and come back." I nodded my head and in a few minutes he was back. He helped me get up slowly as i couldn't feel my legs as they were very weak so i stumbled and caught me and i said sheepishly "i'm sorry" He responded with "it's fine take your time".
Eventually i got my balance and i linked arms with Bruce as support as we made are way out.We got in a taxi on the way to the airport that wasn't far away and as we got all the team came to support me with smiles on their faces and i smirked back.
We were aboard the quinjet heading back home which was a 10 hour flight so i had to get comfortable, Bruce helped me to the only bed they had on board so i could rest whilst everyone was chatting out side, he was about to leave but i told him to sit on the bed as i painfully sat up and i said "Thank you for everything that you've done today"I said with small smile on my face. He looked up saying "No problem" with a smile on his face.
"So what did happen today?" i queried with a worried looked on my face. "What happened was after i went out from your room to tony he told me the mission could be big but we didn't know precisely how big all we know was there was a group of people wanting us dead i went back to tell you but you were asleep and i didn't want to wake you. So we left telling shield you were staying in the base.
On the mission we went to a location we thought was them but there was no one in sight. Straight after we got a call saying that the base was being destroyed so then we were all worried sick so we went back to the base but you weren't there.We then remembered we have a tracker on you so we followed it to that other base and i came to find you as the others killed all the guards whilst seeing if there was any evidence of who they are and why they wanted to kill us but there was nothing there. I stared at Bruce in shock as i listened to what happened.
I replied with "Um, when they were torturing me i think i remembered them saying things like where are the avengers? but i had to respond with i don't know because i didn't actually know what was going on and that's when they would hit me." I looked at the ground.
"I knew i shouldn't have left you" Bruce said sorrowfully putting his head in his hands. So i moved his hands away and said "Hey, hey there was nothing you could do in this situation, it's not your fault.Bruce looked at me doubtfully. "Come here" I said whilst giving him a big hug. Anyway i should let you get some rest he said getting up and said "just call if you need anything".I gave him a smile and lay down to rest still sore and thinking about the red room.
