Hawkeye Imagine

Part 2

It was your day off and you were not happy about that. You'd been working really hard trying to find that guy who jumped off the roof. How did he do that? You kept thinking to yourself. Houdini couldn't even pull that off. He was pretty handsome too, you thought to yourself. You immediately push that thought out of your head. You paced around your livingroom. You wanted to be working on tracking him down and bringing him in. Shield still had the black widow. You told everyone to watch her closely. She's good and if they let their guard down, she will escape. Thats what you worried about as you paced.

Your phone rings. You quickly grab it and answer. Its Coulson.
"Let me guess, she escaped" you says mockingly.
"No, actually the archer has been spotted." says Coulson. "Where?" you reply.
"At a shopping center near your location. You're at home right?" Asked Coulson.
"Yeah, say no more, I got this" You say. You grab your coat and finish the conversation in the car.  You speed up the street.
"Back-up will be there as soon as they can. Distract him for as long as you can" said Coulson. And with that he hung up the phone.
"What the hell is doing at a shopping mall?" You say to your self.

You walk into the mall scanning the lower level as fast as you can. Its was pretty crowded, which made it pretty easy for anyone to blend right in with the shoppers. There was no sign of him. You get on the escalator to the second level and begin scanning out the area. You couldn't believe it, there here he is. You spot him walking in to a sporting goods store. He didn't even seem to notice you advancing on him. He seemed to be browsing, maybe he actually was gonna buy something from this store. The store was rather crowded. 'Why the hell is this store so damn popluar today of all days' you think to yourself. It probably wasnt a good idea but you decided to confront him, disregarding the bystanders. Quickly and carefully, you approach him from behind. You put the gun to his back. 

"Put your hands up and turn around nice and slow" you say to him. He's hesitant but complies. He let's out a sigh. 

"You?!" He says as if the memory of you just rushed back into his. He looked amused by presence. He looked around the store. Quickly he noticed you were alone. 

"You should have brought back up" he mutters. He points at you, and at the top of his lungs he screams "Oh my god she's got a gun!"
A women screams and all hell breaks loose. It was stampede. People were running and screaming and pushing each other out of the way to get out of the store. While distracted by the chaos, he smacks the gun out of your hand and takes off. It happened so fast, you never saw it coming. You recover your gun and chase after him. Oddly enough he doesn't run to the door but further into the store.

The store is empty now and you're walking the isles trying to get eyes on him. An arrow zips past your face. You return fire in the direction the arrow came. You had no idea if you hit him or not. As you reload your weapon, another arrow zips past you head, then another, then another. You stay still, one false move and you might end up with an arrow to the head. 

"I told you, you should have brought back up" he says. His voice echoing in the empty store. You had no idea in which direction  his voice was coming from. He's playing a game of cat and mouse, and you're the mouse. Clearly, if he wanted to shot you in the head he could. You didn't know how to feel about that fact. 

"How about you come out and make this a fair fight you coward" you say loudly as you reholster you gun. 

"Alright then" said a voice from behind you. You quickly turn around to a swift punch to the face. It didn't faze you. You respond with a few punches of your own. He had no problem deflecting your punches. Bringing this guy in was going to be a lot more difficult than you thought.
