"First stop, DC."

The flight to D.C. wouldn't take long, it was only a half an hour in the air.

The entire time we were waiting to land, we were going through photos and videos of the city. The streets were filled with screaming people. HYDRA had taken people hostage and were holding them in buildings throughout the city. Udhar were ushering people and pushing them toward the center of the city. No doubt something was going to go down there. Perhaps our 'god friend' was going to make an appearance.

Clint takes control over the jet as we near our landing point. I come up behind me and look out over the destruction. It took my breath away.

I had once stayed in DC when I was on the run. It was a glorious city. Now this glorious city was in chaos.

Clint lowers the jet down in a street. We pass around some of the Udhar guns we had left. Everyone else took their own weapons. They had gotten their gear back at the facility after Loki grabbed me. Lucky for them, that was exactly where they were holding it.

I hit my pendent and once again i'm enveloped by my suit. The door opens and the sound of screams and gunfire immediately bombard us. We run off the platform and Clint brings the jet back into the air.

I run to the nearest crowd of people.

"GET OUT OF THE CITY! WALK UNDERGROUND!" I shout at them over all the noise.

I direct them to the nearest staircase to the subway.  I fend off the people coming at us while the people get to safety. They were our number one priority. Once I get all the people I can underground and away from the fighting I run back to the street.

I hop onto the shoulders of a HYDRA agent in one of the squads. I tightly wrap my legs around his throat and flip backwards, throwing him backwards as well.

I make my way through the squad until they're all scattered on the ground. I come across some of the local police doing their best to stop some of the aliens.

I jog over to them. "Get the people out of here." I say pointing to a group of people in suits running down the street.

"Who are you?" One of them asks while shooting more to the Udhar.

I smirk. "Their worst nightmare." I chuckle before lifting myself off the ground and throwing a blast so large it knocks down the entire group of aliens they were against.

Without another moment hesitation they run towards the people and guide them elsewhere.

"We've got a bunch of people being held captive on 12 St." Someone shouts through comms.

I press my ear piece while sliding along the ground, cutting the leg of an Udhar. "I'm on it."

I jump up from the ground, leaving the alien defenseless and run through the street. I weave between groups of people, shooting and blasting those on the opposite side.

I reach the bank and slowly push the door open. The first thing I notice is people crying and huddled in the corner. Their getting the whole "your savior is coming and you should be grateful." spiel from those holding them there.

A few of the hostages notice me. I place a finger on my lips in an attempt to keep them quiet. On my left was a staircase, and on my right, another wall.

In a quick minute I squat and shuffle over the stairs. I quietly climb the stairs and press my back against the banister at the top. I listen for another moment. From what it sounded like, they didn't know I was there. I peer over the top, there were at least a dozen men fully armed.

I pull the dagger from my sheath and take a deep breath. Now or never I guess. I stand and grip the banister firmly.

I jump over the banister, launching myself with my free hand. I land one foot on two guys shoulders pushing them to the ground. I use my dagger and slash them, making them unable to stand. I flip forward off the first two guys and kick down another 3. I grab my gun from its holster and shoot the remaining assassins.

I land on the ground again, panting. I look up at the scared people hunched in front of me.

"You're all ok for now. Follow me i'll get you underground." I say and usher them towards the door. I stop abruptly as soon as I see the jet fly overhead and open fire on the attackers in the street.

I push the people back inside and once it's clear I guide them towards an overhang across the street that led to the tunnels. Once they've all gone underground I turn back to the street.

"People from the bank are secure." I say into comms.

"Whatever they had planned in the center of the city is about to go down." Clint echos in my ear.

I sigh. I was probably like a 10 minute run from the center. "Anyone wanna give me a lift?" I ask, barely finishing before i'm swept up.

I look at who's holding me and Tony laughs. "Imagine not being able to fly."

I roll my eyes. "Ha ha Stark."

We land in the center of the city where loads of the Udhar had assembled. Behind them stood Loki. Judging by the looks of it, it wasn't actually him. I absolutely did not like him but he was smart.

We stood across from them. I glare down the fake Loki and he just smiles.

"Stop this madness Loki!" Thor shouts at him.

He smiles in return. "Oh brother, you underestimate me. I may have lost a city or two, but soon enough your whole Earth will be under my control."

I laugh and he snaps his gaze back to me. "Try if you must, but know we will stop at absolutely nothing to make sure you fail." I say my face filled with disgust.

His grin disappears and he scoffs. His hologram fades away. It's silent for a moment. I don't think it's a peaceful silent, more like the eye of the hurricane. A false sense of peace.

The Udhar charge us. Everyone taking on one or two while half a dozen charge me. Sometimes, I hated the power I had.

I try to hold them off for as long as I can but more come and they tackle me to the ground. I scream in pain and agony. Then I go quiet. I lived for these types of moments.

I feel an overwhelming heat take over my body. I see nothing but the color purple. I let out a slight laugh through the sound of metal clashing.

I scream again louder, but this time it wasn't in pain. It was in power. I release a pulse of energy so large it knocks down any of the aliens within a large radius.

I stand up and steady myself again. I look around me to see a hole in the ground where I had stood. Oops.

"The hell just happened?" Clint asks. I look up a the loud sound and see the jet hovering above us.

"Yea that's my bad." I pant and find the others.

When we look around, the aliens had fallen and the HYDRA agents were scattered on the ground.

I offer Steve a hand up. "Well, two cities down, 3 more to go." I grunt.

"That we know of." Nat adds.

I groan. "Think of the positives Nat. The positives."
