Let The Bullets Fly
Orange flashes flashed before your eyes as you slowly opened them. You were disoriented to say the least. Your ears were buzzing and your head was pounding. You opened your eyes wider and you saw where the flashes were coming from, fire. It took you another moment to fully realise the car had flipped over and had landed on it’s roof. You saw the other convoy car’s outside, burning.
“NADEEM!” the sound of Fisk’s voice was quick to pull you back to reality. “NADEEM!” He shouted again, and you started to push yourself up. Then you heard the gunshots outside the car, and you realised that you were under attack. Fisk noticed you were awake. “Agent (y/n) ! We are under attack!”. You got up quicker and crawled towards Agent Nadeem, you checked for a pulse and luckily you realised he was alive. You carefully shook him and tried to wake him up, which wasn’t working. He was bleeding and at this point you realised your head was bleeding as well.
You looked to Fisk “Keep your head down!” you shouted. You were thankfull he was still cuffed. You looked outside and saw agents trying to defend the vehicle and shooting at the assailants. You grabbed your gun. “They have come to kill me Agent (y/n)!”
“Who is ‘they’ ?!” you ask him while you try to break one of the windows.
“The albanians!”
A grenade exploded closeby launching another agent against the car you were in. “STAY IN THE CAR!” he shouted to you and suddenly he was shot in the head.
You gasped and crawled away from the windows, weapon in hand.
You saw your fellow agents get shot one by one. You felt hopeless, your skills were nothing if you were locked in a damn car.
The shooting stopped for a moment and you heard a man whistle. You understood what was going to happen “Mister Fisk, get away from the windows.” you almost whispered.
As you tried to find cover in the car you saw men approach from the smoke, a lot of them.
They came closer and started to look inside the car, you heard them speak a language you did not understand. They only thing they said that you understood was “Fisk”.
One of the men bend down and looked right at the both of you in the car. He started to slam his fist on the window. He stood again and opened fire on the window, you crawled further back pointing your weapon at them, you knew the windows were bulletproof and for a moment you thought you would have more time for back-up to arrive but then you heard the sound of a metal cutter at the other side of the car.
Fisk sat upright ready to attack if they’d try to grab him.
Suddenly you heard another gunshot and you heard the metal cutter stop.
“Can you see what’s going on?” you ask Fisk.
Fisk did not reply, he only shook his head as you heard another gunshot.
You know heard gunshots repeatedly and you saw the assailants drop one by one.
You looked around and finally saw that one agent was taking down every single one of them.
You saw how he managed to shoot them through a car window and even deflected a bullet to hit another.
The agent shot them with astonishing precision.
Two of the attackers came out of hiding.
“Don’t shoot! Don’t shoot! We surrender!” they shouted to the agent as they held their arms up.
You heard two gunshots and saw both of them drop. You swore if you had blinked you would have missed it all. Out of the corner of your eyes you saw two other attackers coming behind the agent and you saw how he dismantled the gun he was holding within seconds and used it to knock both of them down. You gasped and watched as he walked over to a fallen agent. Fisk took the moment to kick the door of the car open and crawl out holding his cuffed hands up. You quickly crawled after him, not wanting to let a prisoner escape.
“Convict.” the agent said to Fisk. “Don’t move.”
The coldness in the agent’s voice was enough to send chills down your spine and you saw that the agent was pointing his gun at Fisk.
You held up your hands as well as you crawled out.
“Don’t shoot! I’m agent (y/n)!” you said before you crawled out completely, not wanting to risk the chance of getting shot.
The agent looked past Fisk to you, and motioned to Fisk to move aside so you could get out.
Fisk moved aside and you crawled out and tried your best to stand up.
“Agent Nadeem has been wounded, he is still in the car Agent..” you stopped and hoped he would tell you his name.
“Poindexter.” he said, not taking his eyes or gun off of Fisk “And you are?” he looked at you for only a second.
“ Agent (y/n). Did you call for back-up Agent Poindexter?”
“ I have, they will be hear any second now.” he was watching Fisk like a hawk. And after seeing how he took out all the attackers, you doubted that Fisk would try anything.
“Good, look I’ll try to get Agent Nadeem out of the car. Will you keep an eye on the prisoner ?” You already figured he would but asked him anyway.
“Sure thing.” he seemed to enjoy keeping Fisk under gun point and honestly, you don’t blame him.
You walked over to the turned car and tried to get the door on Agent Nadeem’s side open, luckily the door was damaged and you managed to open it with a little force.
Once you had it open you shook his shoulder and you saw that Agent Nadeem was slowly gaining consciousness again.
“What the hell happened?” there was panic in his voice as he spoke to you.
You kept your voice calm as you spoke to him “We have been under attack Sir. Agent Poindexter saved our lives. Sir, I am going to try and get your seatbelt loose so I can get you out of the car.”
Agent Nadeem nodded and you got out your knife and cutted loose the seatbelt.
You helped him get out of the car slowly. And you let him lean against you as he regained his balance.
“Are you okay, Sir? Do you think you can walk?”
Agent Nadeem looked around and saw the fallen agents on the street. You had to grab him at his jacket as he started to lean a bit to far back.
“Yeah, yeah. I can walk Agent (y/n), thank you.” he took a deep breath. “What happened, Agent?”
You released him a bit, still supporting him as you saw that he was probably in shock.
“The albanians ambushed us, Sir. They wanted to kill Fisk. They would have succeeded if it hadn’t been for Agent Poindexter saving us.”
He nodded to you and grabbed your shoulder lightly “Good work, Agent (y/n). Thank you. Oh and please, just call me Nadeem.” he said as he patted your shoulder.
Back-up finally arrived. You walked with Nadeem towards the paramedics. Who quickly helped him and tried to help the others. You noticed that Agent Poindexter was still aiming his gun at Fisk.
“Agent Poindexter !” You called for him.
He looked over at you “You should let the paramedics take a look at you.”
He seem to be amused by your statement “No need for that, Agent (y/n). Let them help the others.”
You looked him over and saw that he indeed seemed unharmed apart from some cuts on his face. You were still processing what had transpired only minutes ago, how this agent had flawlessly taken down the attackers on his own and barely had a scratch on him.
You saw how he told Fisk to get into one of the cars.
You and Nadeem didn’t stay long with the paramedics, you still had a mission to complete and that was to transport Fisk to the Presidential Hotel.
Nadeem asked you to drive with him again, and you did
