"We're not going to hurt your daughter." Ileana reassures her.
"We're here to talk." Talos said.
"Last time we wanted to talk, I was hanging upside down by my ankles." Vers remarked.
"We have the truth. About you. About Lawson. About the flight test crash." Ileana said.
"I don't believe you." Vers scornfully looked at her.
"We have an audio recording from P.E.G.A.S.U.S. of you from the crash six years ago. On a device I believe you call a black box." Talos informs them.
"They told me it was destroyed." Maria said.
"Well I have my ways of getting what I want." Talos said.
"I don't believe you." Vers responded. Ileana walked forward, feeling Fury's gun pointed directly at her.
"Look, I am the last person you would want to talk to but we really need your help. There's more to Lawson than you know and you're the only person capable of helping us." Ileana said. She could see there was compassion for her still hidden Vers' eyes.
"Call of your buddy outside and then I'll do as you say." Vers said.
"Deal." Ileana agreed without doubt. Talos flinches backwards, Ileana looking back to see Talos frightened by Goose. Fury started confused at Talos' fear of the cat. Vers grabs the cat, forcing Talos to stand back.
"I'm surprised that this does not work on you." Vers spoke to Ileana.
"I've had one of those creatures." Ileana added. It was the first time she held a civil sort of conversation with Vers after revealing her true identity back on Torfa.
▬▬▬▬▬▬
ILEANA HANDS Maria the CD of the audio recording, as she places it into the CD drive. The six individuals in the room huddled around the space, waiting for the CD to completely load. Norex glances over at Ileana, a look of annoyance on his face. She glares at him for being impatient, as the Skrull man looks away from her.
The CD completes its loading time, with the CD player application popping up on the computer monitor. The room is filled with the voice belonging to a woman. This seemed to belong to Dr Wendy Lawson. Soon Vers' voice appears in the recording as well. Lawson calls out coordinates for Vers' to follow. The two females talk about where they were going, with Lawson stating that they were going to a laboratory. The conversation turns south as they were ambushed by enemies. Ileana looks towards Vers' direction, seeing the discomfort on her face. She was remembering the events of the crash.
▬▬▬▬▬▬
ALL OF HER MEMORIES on that day flashes before her eyes once hearing the audio recording. She remembers flying the plane for Lawson. She remembers being attacked by another plane. She remembers crashing onto the ground. She remembers seeing the blue blood seeping from the cut along Lawson's face. She heard the real name belonging to woman she knew as Lawson. Her name was Mar-Vell.
She remembers Mar-Vell trying to sit up, raising her Kree pistol to blow up the energy core of P.E.G.A.S.U.S. However, Mar-Vell slumps backwards as a projectile of heat burns through her body. She did not know what to do, grabbing Mar-Vell's pistol, aiming it at the direction the gun projectile came from. Emerging from the smoke, she did not realise it was his face she expected to see.
Yon-Rogg.
The next image flashing through her mind was ripping a whole into the energy core with the pistol. The energy seeping from the core binds with her body. She remembers everything. Everything she once knew was a lie. She knows the truth.
