Chapter Thirteen

When I woke up it was all on my own. I wasn't startled awake by a nightmare, I wasn't forced away by another person- I woke up like a normal person would after taking a nap. It was strange but not unwelcome. It felt really nice to have a peaceful rest for once.

Wanda was correct too, because I felt much better after getting peaceful sleep. Rather than feeling dread and even more tired than when I fell asleep, I felt rejuvenated and ready to take on the day. It was a very cheesy statement but it was the only thing I felt could describe how I currently felt. It was like I had woken up already filled with energy drinks and steroids (which is what Hydra would do if I was particularly out of it after a week of absolutely no sleep).

My peaceful wake up did not last long, which isn't surprising. I had just sat up in bed when someone came bursting through the door. They slammed it open with such a fury that it's a wonder the damn door didn't break off it's hinges. "Jesus!" I yelled out in surprise and looked to see who it was.

Mr. Stark stood there. "We have somewhere to be. Suit up," he said. I nodded, secretly excited to be considered to come, and he closed the door as he stepped out. I sprung out of bed and ran over to the closet where I had put the dress and jacket from Wanda. Quickly, I grabbed them and threw them over to the bed, then stepped out of the closet and closed the door. I stripped off my pajamas and threw the dress on, then slipped the jacked on.

Something was missing. "Shoes!" I called out to myself. Back in the closet, they sat where I had left them, and I grabbed them and the socks I needed with them. The socks took a second to put on, but I got them on and slipped the shoes on too. Finally I felt ready and ran out of the room quickly. I threw the door open and used my mind to will it shut. Agent Lambert was somehow there and followed me as I quickly made my way to the common area room place thing. I still didn't have the path to the hangar memorized so I had to find someone else to take me there.

Wanda sat there in her outfit waiting for me. She turned my way when she heard me running down the hall. "Great, lets go," she said and we ran off to the hangar. I'm pretty sure Agent Lambert followed us the whole way there. Once there I saw everyone else in full gear. There was even someone there that I didn't recognize as someone I had already met. I took in his appearance and quickly figured out it was Thor. He was in full armor and had his legendary hammer tightly gripped in his right hand. He still had yet to notice me, and I couldn't figure out if it was a good thing or bad thing; I had no idea how much information he was given about me or the situation I had put myself in with these people. Hopefully I could maybe talk to him more after this emergency mission.

I turned to look at Wanda and saw Bruce hand her something, say something else, and then walk off towards Mr. Stark. She then put the something on/in her ear and turned over to me. "Are you ready?" she asked. I nodded and the two of us walked into the jet and sat over on the sides away from people. Sam came over and sat next us.

"How you feeling Rey?" he asked me. I shrugged and looked at my hands. I saw that i had forgotten my gloves back in my room during my rush to get dressed; they must've come off when I took my top off.

"I don't really know. It isn't my first mission but it is at the same time? I don't really know how to describe it," I said. The giant door to the jet closed and I noticed everyone was inside, and the only people not in their 'battle armor' were Bruce and Mr. Stark. Everyone else was dressed and armed heavily. Whatever we were flying into, they weren't ready for the amount of fire power.

Captain Rogers walked over to me and held out a pair of handcuffs. Wanda looked at them and scoffed. "Really Steve? She's on our side and won't try anything," she said. Something in her tone almost sounded like disappointment. "These restraints aren't necessary."
