Chapter 12 - SHIELDS First Mission (2)

A moment after the body fell, Agent Carter jumped down from the Cargo Box and said with the guard's strange weapon in her hands

Take their weapons, we may need them

Bucky and Steve nodded and took the two remaining strange weapons while trying to figure out how to use them

Where's the trigger, muttered Bucky, puzzled while inspecting the gun, but then

Click

BAM! 

Bucky pressed the trigger by accident, causing a cargo box to disintegrate

Oops, muttered Bucky awkwardly while Carter and Steve stared at him with a deadpan look as if to say Are you Serious?

Narrator: Somewhere in the Hydra Facility, there was a man. The man seemed to be looking at a shadow wall, appearing thoughtful; he was Eldrin

Shall I test it then? I said while grabbing the tesseract-powered weapon and shooting at the solid shadow wall I created

BAM!

Well i guess my assumption was correct. I thought a bit surprised while looking at my now disintegrating shadow wall. Tesseract-powered weapons can destroy my shadow constructs after all, if I were to turn them solid, they would be vulnerable; however, if i don,t the energy blast will simply phase through them.

A minor inconvenience, I must say, I muttered, and then looked in a specific direction and said, they are doing quite well for their first time, but I believe it's time to wrap it up

The man then sunk in to the ground disappearing

Back to where the three supersoldiers are, there was an intense laser fight going on in the hallway

BAM!

BAM!

BAM!

On your left said Steve to Bucky while shooting a guard hiding behind a corner in the hallway

got it, said Bucky as he shot the guy who tried to ambush him from the left corner

BAM!

I apologise for interrupting your training, but time is short, and we need to leave. I said and then continued, They already know we are here, it would take at most 20 seconds for them to reach us

He then wrapped the supersoldiers in cocoons and flew away, crashing the ceiling in the process

After he reached a safe altitude, he said to the three supersoldiers i will send you towards the captured soldiers. I have safely evacuated them 5 kilometers from here. In the meantime, I will destroy the facility.

The cocoons controlled by Eldrin flew away into the distance. He then turned his attention towards the facility and raised his arms forward

The moment he did that, from both sides of the facility, 2 giant hands made of darkness, much bigger than the facility, materialised

After a few moments, Eldrin simply clapped his hands

Clap!

Both hands moved instantly, completely crashing the facility

BOOOM!

Debris flew everywhere, and dust clouds rose in the sky

The facility was nowhere to be seen; in its place were piles of rubble,

June 26, 1943

In a secret underground hydra facility 

Dr. Zola, We don,t have much time. One of our most important facilities was hit yesterday by the same man, Have you found out his weaknesses said Schmidt. His cold face held a noticeable hint of fury

After thinking for a while, Dr. Zola then answered grimly, he seems to be capable of controlling shadows, and what puzzles me is that his shadows can interfere with matter, which makes his weakness uncertain, though theoretically, as long as we cover the whole facility with light, leaving no shadow, he will be left with no shadow to control and His teleportation capabilities only work if there are shadows, however he could still use shadows from outside to simply destroy our facilities,

So you're telling me THERE'S NOTHING WE CAN DO?!, said Schmidt, furious 

After thinking Dr Zola said

Perhaps we could use the tesseract

When Schmidt heard that, he slapped his head, unable to believe that he had forgotten about the tesseract, and said

Perhaps I have gotten too stressed by this man to the point where I forgot about the tesseract, but how can we effectively use it against him

We could create tesseract-powered energy shields around our factories, which could serve as both offensive and defensive nothing will be able to get in, to destroy our facilities he will have to make his shadows interfere with matter, which should turn the shadows themselves into matter, and no matter can resist tesseract-powered weapons without disintegrating, said Dr. Zola

As expected, Dr. Zola, your ideas are as great as your inventions, said Schmidt, impressed, and then asked

How fast can you build it

DrZola thought for a moment and said

I can make the first prototype in at least five days thought it may be unstable

That's fine as long as it works, said Schmidt, unbothered

June 26, 1943,New York

In an underground base somewhere in New York

Well done i heard from Mr. Eldrin that you did quite well for your first mission, said Dr. Abrahams to the three supersoldiers, and continued, though this can not exactly be called a mission since you technically just tagged along with Mr. Eldrin to gain a bit experience. We will talk about your next real mission in a few days. In the meantime, you're dismissed

But before the three Supersoldiers could leave, Dr.Abrahams said suddenly, while slapping his forehead

Oh, how could I forget! Your reward for this mission, said Dr. Abrahams, while giving each Supersoldier a folder filled with cash

2000 dollars for this mission, the harder the mission is, the more you get paid, along with your monthly salary of 4000 dollars of course, said Dr.Abrahams

Wait We get paid!? said Bucky, shocked.

Of course, you get paid. Did you really think that I'm gonna send you on life-threatening missions for free said Dr.Abrahams, stupefied by the obvious question

Now go rest, I want you in peak condition for your next mission since Eldrin wont be with you, said Dr. Abrahams while walking to his office

after Dr Abrhaams left, Bucky turned towards Steve and said

Wan- but he stopped himself and smirked after he saw Steve walking towards Carter, seemingly about to ask her on a date 

Not Bad muttered Bucky,
