Little Winter

3

After breaking in the new recruits, I leave, going back to my room. I quickly put on my mission uniform and go to the leader. "Mission?" He smiled. "A few, actually. The first is the most dangerous, however. Even the asset failed. Take out Nick Fury." I nod, then leave.

After tracking for a while, I find out he will be leaving his office in thirty minutes and will take a highway, where I can intercept him. The downside is that he will be with three people, one Steven, one Natasha, and the traitor. I go to the garage and grab my motorcycle, hopping on and leaving for the highway, which is very close.

As soon as I get to the highway, I park on the side of the road, and grab my rocket launcher. I stand in the middle of the road, waiting for them.

3. 2. 1. There they are. I aim, and pull the trigger, making the car fly over my head. I see Steven grab a circular shield and push through the windshield, grabbing everyone else with him. I smirk, not noticing the people behind me.

"Freeze, or I will blast your Hydra ass into space." I turn to see a man in a gold and red metal suit, a man with wings, and a woman with red magic flowing around her. Suddenly, after a school bus passes by, a young boy in a red and blue suit lands beside the metal man. "Hey dad! I was just going on a field trip to the tower. Crazy, huh?" I hear the man sigh. "Since you're already here, you can fight the Hydra lady."

I turn to see the four people from the car standing up, perfectly fine. I quickly pull water from the air around me, making a shield around me. "Shit! She's enhanced!" I take deep breaths, noticing the man, the traitor. He was the asset that went missing. Unfortunately, Hydra never gave me his trigger words.

I push the shield out, and pull more water from a cloud above me. I hear a whistling in the air behind me, so I quickly turn around and stop the air around the object. I see it is a small disc with electricity around it. I throw it back in the direction it came from, hitting the traitor on his metal arm. "Are you fucking kidding me?! Again?!" He pulls it off and resets his arm, while Natasha apologizes.

Suddenly, I feel someone enter my head, causing me to see my past.

Flashback

I'm 11 years old. I was training in the room, punching a bag and letting my anger out. Suddenly, I punch it, my arm going through. "Good job, Black Lily. Now use your powers to repair it." I do as told, and begin punching again. I repeat the process, only stopping once I am told to go to my ballet lessons. I nod once, then leave.

I put on my pointe shoes, and go to Madame Erizela. "Hello Madame. I am ready for my lesson." She nods, and begins the music. I begin to do the routine perfectly, stopping for a minute in between each time I do the dance. "Enough. You may go to your room." I nod once, leaving.

On my way to my room, I hear a man screaming in a lab. Suddenly it stopped, and I heard someone saying trigger words. I peeked my head in, and notice a man with a metal arm. The Winter Soldier. I quickly turn to walk away, but someone grabs my arm. I turn my head and see a guard.

"She was looking into the room. We must wipe her and put her under cyro." I see Dr. Zola nod. "Dr. Zola?" "I'm sorry child. We mustn't let you leave with this knowledge." Suddenly I am pulled towards a chair. They put a device over my head, and suddenly it feels like I am being electrocuted. I scream, my body feeling as though it is on fire. I feel my memories leaving my head, popping like bubbles.

After a while the pain stopped, and I was dragged to a small metal tube with a window. They lock me in, and it is suddenly filled with ice, before I can react. Then all I see is black.

End Flashback

I realize I am surrounded by a tube of ice, and crying. I turn around to see the girl with red magic behind me. I snap out of whatever daze I was in, and knock her out, before melting the ice around me and running. Before I can make it very far, a shot rings out, and I fall to the floor with a bullet in my leg.

I start panicking, creating a ball of ice around me again. I whimper, trying to remember what Dr. Zola told me to do whenever I have a panic attack. I start singing the song my mother sang to me after I was born.

Somewhere over the rainbow
Way up high
There's a land that I heard of once in a lullaby.

Someday I'll wish upon a star
Wake up where the clouds are far behind me
Where trouble melts like lemon drops
High above the chimney top
That's where you'll find me

Somewhere over the rainbow
Bluebirds fly
Birds fly over the rainbow
Why oh why can't I.

After singing, I feel myself begin to calm down. I take several deep breaths, and wipe my tears before pulling the bullet out of my leg. I scream as the pain sets in. I realize I won't be able to walk away, so I slowly let the ice fall.

I take more deep breaths before pushing myself up. I feel someone come up behind me and help me stand. I look to my side to see the spider boy. He looked at me and smiled under his mask. "I know how it feels to get shot in the leg." I look at him, confused as to why he was helping me.

I turn my head to see the asset talking to Natasha. I remember everyone's names due to my amazing memory from missions. I see them hug, then kiss each other. I subconsciously pretend to vomit, and see spiderling laughing beside me. "They got married a long time ago. Had a kid, can't find her." I nod.

"So, spider human. What's your deal?" He laughs. "It's Spider-Man. I got bit by a radioactive spider on a field trip to my dad's enemy's company. Now I am part spider." I nod. "Cool. How old are you?" "15. You?" "13."

After talking to Spider-Man for a while, I'm confronted by Nick Fury. "Nicholas J Furious." "Don't call me that." "Okay. What do you want. By the way, I only trust Spider kid right now." He tilted his head. "Why did you try to kill me?" "Hydra said to. Said nobody has been able to. Even the asset failed and went rogue." I point towards the soldier. "What's your name, little girl?" I laugh. "Mission name or real name?" "Both." I smile. "Black Lily, or Aurora." He narrowed his eyes. "Last name?" "Don't know. Never met my parents. All I have is a song from my mother. My father, I don't know anything about him."

After giving Nicholas Furious all the information he asked for, I was put in the back of a jet that arrived after a while. I looked down, and noticed I was losing a lot of blood. "Hey, I've lost a lot of blood? I'm just gonna, yeah." After saying that, I proceeded to pass out.
