Breaking in
Peter lowered himself slowly from a ceiling vent, he blinked his eyes afew times waiting for the night vision in his suit to adjust, Cap had given him this special mission to break into shield and get the files on the mission that they had had Mr. Stark run.
“Karen give me a scan of the room. I want to know where the lasers and heat sensors are.”
“I can show the lasers are, do want initiate the new body temp concealer?” Karen replied.
“I have that? Yeah sure. Do it.”
The lazers lit up; Peter really had his work cut out for him. He dropped onto the ground and started nimbly navigating through the lasers, it got trickey due to the moving lasers that he had to keep his eye on. The going was slow but he eventually made it. He couldn’t believe Shield still kept papers… although after the stories he had heard about Ultron, he could hardly blame them. It just made breaking in a whole lot easier. Peter worked his way down the long rows of shelves and file boxes until he came to the “S” section, from there it didn’t take him long to find the section for Mr. Stark. It was extensive.
“Oh boy…” Peter stared up at all of the boxes. Hopefully they were arranged by year. He decided to start with the newest looking box. He pulled it off the shelf and began examining the contents. He looked for the files with the most recent dates, he found three from that year so he decided to take all three. Peter quickly put the lid back on the box and put it back on the shelf, he hesitated. There were alot things in the boxes that he really wanted to know, he had to remind himself what his mission was, he finished putting the box away, and then worked his way back through the lasers, into the vent, and then started crawling for the exit.
Cool fresh air blew against Peter’s face as he zoomed down the highway on his motorcycle. He was grateful to have gotten out without getting noticed. Shield was quite easy to break into, he had thought it was going to be hard. Peter turned down the driveway to the compound; when he pulled up Steve was waiting for him. Peter pulled to a stop, and as he did so Carol Danvers stepped out from behind Steve. Peter gulped. Carol was a punch first maybe ask questions later, but possibly just keep punching, kind of person. Her friendship with Mr. Stark went back a long time, and she had become far over protective of him, after the whole mess with Thanos. Peter shivered trying to forget that whole endeavor.
Carol looked pissed. Her fist was clenched, and glowing slightly. She strode forward.
“Have you looked at that file yet?” She demanded.
“No, I thought Steve should see it first,” Peter replied quietly, he felt very submissive around Carol. She snached Peter’s backpack and pulled the file out. She scanned through it quickly, looking angrier with every growing second.
“Pepper said SHIELD told her, that they did know what happened?” Carol snarled closing the folder. “I aut to pick up the whole building full of lying scum, and throw it into space!”
“What?” Steve asked folding his arms. Peter was still in awe of how fast she could read.
“There are two files here. One is the file that they gave Tony, and the other is the real file which…” She paused for dramatic effect, “ Is very informational, and very different from the bullshit mission file that they gave Tony.”
The corner of her mouth twitched as though she was about to start shouting uncontrollably.
Steve took the file out of her hand and flipped through it.
“Son of a bitch.”
“Those pieces of shit have him doing their dirty work, without actually having him know what it is,” Carol growled.
“What? What did they have him doing?” Peter asked very confused.
“They gave Tony a fake mission, to accomplish their actual mission,” Carol said in a low agitated voice.
“Which was?” Peter still didn’t get what was going on.
“They gave Tony a fake mission. They sent him in blind. They sent him to bring in a young girl who was posing a threat in London. They wanted him to bring her in. They told him they didn’t know her abilities, they just knew she was dangerous, but this other file completely contradicts everything in the mission file they gave Tony. They sent him in as fricken test dummy to see just how powerful she is. Here's the best part, they got him instead of us so they could go around the accords, because he is retired and legally no longer bound by them, and they didn’t want anyone to know that they snached the kid.”
“What exactly are her powers?” Peter asked shifting nervously.
“She can make portals in time, and space… Which means Tony could be literally anywhere,” Carol said angrily, Peter noticed the glow around her hands had increased since they had been standing there. It was making him uncomfortable.
“I think we should find the kid,” Steve said calmly, as if he could sense that Carol was about to do something crazy.
“You contact the committee in London, and I will go see what else SHIELD is hiding,” Carol snarled and didn’t wait for Steve to reply before she leapt into the sky, and flew away.
“You know I really miss the days when Stark was the most rash person on the team,” Steve said frowning up at the sky.
