Avengers: New Blood (Peter Parker)/ A.M

44. A Breach

Before she could get to the last one, though, the other two grabbed her arms, trying to take away the baton.

The other guard charged towards her with his baton in hand, trying to help the others knock her out. As he got near them, though, Andria jumped and kicked him with both feet  making him fall down, while his baton got thrown towards the other side of the room away from his grasp.

As Andria landed on her feet with force, she managed to free herself from the guards' grasp and swiftly kicked one of them, making him kneel. She stepped on his knee and before the other could react, she had managed to jump and knock him out with a flying triangle choke, while also taking back the baton, which he had taken from her.

Andria then quickly turned to the one on his knees and knocked him out with a blow on his head, using the baton.

Hearing a groan, Andria turned towards the guard she had kicked down previously, who was trying to get up.

He looked around for his baton, but seeing it had been thrown at the other side of the room, he got up and raised his fists.

Andria flipped the baton in her hand and was about to attack him when she noticed he was the same guy that had punched her, while placing her in her cell.

"Oh, it's you again," she said and he pursed his lips, aggravated.
"Let's get this over with," the man motioned for her to make the first move and Andria smirked.

Instead of attacking him, though, she threw the baton away and raised her own fists, while her smirk widened and the man charged at her angrily.

He tried to punch her, but she grabbed his arm and twisted it behind his back. She kicked his leg and as he fell down she let go of his arm and punched him in the face as hard as she could, knocking him out cold.

"How'd you like it now, asshole!" Andria mattered, passing by him and running towards Wanda's cell.

"Come on, let's get you out of here!" Andria said, using the access card to open the cell.

When the door opened, Andria got in and helped Wanda out of the straitjacket. Once they got rid of it, the two girls embraced each other.

"Thank you, Andria!" Wanda said, as the two parted.
"Of course!"
"How did you get out? What happened?"
"Steve!" Andria said with a smile and Wanda returned it.
"I knew he'd come!" Wanda said and Andria nodded, but with her stare fixated on the shock collar around Wanda's neck.
"Let me get you out of this!" She said, but Wanda stopped her.
"No, it gets activated by touch. We must find its remote control."

Andria nodded and the two girls exited the room, only to find their way blocked by two guards.

As Wanda used her powers to throw one of them towards the wall, Andria noticed that the other held the remote that activated Wanda's collar. Before he could use it, though, Andria kicked it out of his hand and then knocked his head on the wall, making him fall down unconscious.

She picked the remote and turned to Wanda with a playful smirk.

"Wanda?"
"With pleasure!" The girl said and Andria threw the remote in the air, leaving Wanda to destroy it with a blast.

One last guard appeared in the corridor and even though he had a terrified expression, he ran towards them.

Halfway, though, Wanda levitated him with her powers and turned to Andria.

"Andria?"
"With pleasure!" The girl chuckled and Wanda threw the guard towards Andria who kicked him towards the wall, knocking him out.

"That was fun!" Wanda said, while destroying the collar and tossing it to the ground.
"Well, teamwork makes the dream work!" Andria said with a small smile and Wanda laughed, as Steve, Sam, Clint and Scott appeared, running towards them.

"Yes, that's very sweet! Why don't you save it for somewhere far away from here?!" Sam said, gently pushing the two girls so that they'd start running as well.

"What took you guys so long? We could have used a bit of help," Andria said, making Wanda chuckle.
"Right, cause you two seemed pretty helpless, judging from the knocked out guards!" Clint said sarcastically and they all laughed.

"We were taking your things," Steve said and showed them two duffel bags he was carrying.
"Alright, come on, this way!" Clint said and they all took a turn that led towards the control room.

Getting there, there were about a dozen guards knocked out.

Steve pressed a button at the wall near the exit and they all felt the prison getting out of the water. As he opened the door, they saw that a gate had opened at the roof and the Quinjet Steve and Bucky had stolen, flown by Bucky himself, landed inside.

"Alright, let's go!" Steve motioned for everyone to run towards the Quinjet and they all did as told except for Andria.

"Go, I'll be right behind you!"
"What are you talking about--"
"Just trust me! Go and wait for me. I'll be there in a minute!"
"A minute!" Steve said and left the control room hesitantly, following the others towards the Quinjet with the door closing behind him.

Andria ran to the main computer inside the room and tried to hack into the Raft's system in an effort to delete everything they had on her, wanting to keep her face hidden from the public eye.

"You're smart," Andria said, getting irritated by all the firewalls the system had, "but I'm smarter!" She continued, and in less than a minute she had managed to crack all of them and erase all data.

At the same moment, one of the doors leading to the corridor opened and about three guards appeared.

"Shit," Andria mattered and pushed a desk in front of them, trying to stall them, as she ran towards the door.

As she managed to open it and get towards the landing area where the Quinjet was, she felt one of them grabbing her shoulder, trying to pull her back.

She elbowed him, though, and kicked him backwards towards one of the others, making them fall down, but the third avoided the blow.

In the meantime, Andria had reached the Quinjet and Steve had extended his hand for her to take in order to help her get in.

As she did so, the other guard, who had followed her, grabbed her foot. He was about to pull her, but someone kicked him from inside the Quinjet and quickly closed the gate as the Quinjet took off.

As Andria led back, panting, she turned to look who had kicked the guard. Seeing Bucky, she sat up, drawing his attention.

"Thanks for that!"
"What are friends for?" He said with a small smile and she grinned taking his hand, as he helped her on her feet.

"What were you thinking?" Clint asked, clearly irritated by Andria's recklessness.
"Give me a break, okay?"
"Why did you stay back anyways?" Sam asked with sheer curiosity.
"I hacked into their system. Everything they had, all information, footage, recordings, data, everything is gone. Whatever they had on us, I erased it," Andria explained and they all stared at her with small smiles, once again impressed with her skills.

"Damn..." Scott mattered, breaking the silence and Andria chuckled and patted his shoulder, as she moved further into the Quinjet to take a seat next to Wanda.

As they were all sitting, still trying to catch their breath and rest from everything that had happened, Sam turned to Steve.

"Hey, Cap... thank you!" He said and Clint, Scott, Andria and Wanda all nodded thankfully.

Steve nodded too with a small smile and Andria turned to Bucky with a thankful expression.

"And thank you too!" She said and they all turned to him.
"It was all Steve, I didn't do anything," Bucky mattered, but Steve objected.
"He helped with the plan to get you out!"
"Steve--"
"Bucky!" Andria cut him off and he turned to her, "thank you!" She said again genuinely and he smiled shyly, nodding his head.

After that, they all stayed silent, trying to get some rest, but also decide what they'd do next.
