Chapter 7


As the rest of the Avengers team was waiting for Andy to come back, they started to get nervous. Andy wasn't coming back, and even when Clint came walking into the room she did't follow. 

"Okay, I'm going to go try to find her. She should be back by now." Clint said as he stood up and walked out of the room. Natasha got up and followed him out of the room. 

"She's going to be okay Clint, she's just negotiating with the psychopath who found our way into the compound." Natasha said and Clint silently nodded. 

He had just gotten Andy back he was not ready to let her go anytime soon. She had just appeared back into his life and if she was gone again, he didn't know what he would do. 


As they walked into the lab, it was empty. Alex was gone and so was Andy. Clint froze and Natasha walked into the lab and started to look for anything. She picked up a piece of paper and opened it. 

"Clint, you're going to want to see this." Natasha said as she handed him the piece of paper. 

He took it silently and started to read. 


Clint, 

I know that you just got me back and I was so happy to finally see you again and be happy for even just a little amount of time I had it. 

Alex is going to give you the list of Bucky's trigger words, but I have to promise her that I won't hunt her down with any help. I can't be with you if I want her to give you that list. I can't just let her go, she's going to kill more people if I do. 

Please don't try to find me. I need to take care of Alex, and then I can come back to you. 

I'm so sorry I have to leave, I hope that we find each other again soon. 


Love, 

Andy 


Clint just looked at the note in his hand as Natasha found the list on the floor. She looked at Clint and sighed. 

"You can't shut down again. I know you just got her back but she's alive. You know she's alive and breathing, but she has to get rid of Alex and she can't do that if she wants to keep Bucky safe." Natasha said and Clint just shakes his head. 

"I just got her back. I just got her back from the dead and now she just disappeared. How could she do this to me, again?" He asked her and looked up. 

Natasha sighed and hugged him. "I know you just got her back, and I know you're angry, but she just saved Bucky from turning into the Winter Solider again." She said and rubbed his back. 

Clint hugged her and just held on. Andy had disappeared and it was just after he got her back. It broke his heart, again. He knew he couldn't shut the world out again. That's something I couldn't do to the team. 

"Can I have some time alone? I promise I'll get back to the living room soon, but I need some time to process this." Clint said as he pulled away from Natasha. 

She nodded a little bit and smiled a little before walking out of the room. 

As soon as he knew Natasha was out of earshot he punched the wall and started to cry. 


Natasha walked back into the room and sighed. "Andy left." She said and everyone went silent. 

"Wait what? We just got her back, why did she leave?" Bucky asked and Natasha put the list down on the table. 

"Because Alex came in and said she had this list. The deal was that she give us this list and we stop hunting her. Obviously Andy can't let her go because Alex will just continue to kill people. Andy made a deal with her that if she leaves us and only has her resources, then we can have the list. Andy saved Bucky from turning again but left behind Clint and all of us again." She explained and Bucky looked at his metal arm. 

"This is all my fault isn't it?" Bucky asked and everyone chimed in with their version of no. "If Alex didn't have this list to turn me into him again then Andy would still be here." He said and sighed. 

"Well this is not your fault. You know that what Hydra did to you is not your fault and you know that it's Alex's fault for using that list as leverage against Andy to make her suffer." Steve said and Bucky just shrugged. Steve sighed and looked at Natasha. 

"Look, Clint is gonna be really torn apart by this again. So I would be gentle with that. And Bucky, you did nothing wrong." Natasha said and looked at the group of Avengers that had just lost  a member of the second time. 


Andy was back out on the streets of New York. She knew that Stark could easily find her because of all of the cameras there are around the city. Luckily for Andy her nickname was Spectra so she knew how to be invisible. 

She turned into an alley and walked a little bit before she leaned against the wall and took a deep breath. If Clint thought the choice to leave him again was easy, it wasn't. Tears welled up in her eyes and she wiped away the tears that were running down her face. 

Andy took another deep breath before putting her her hair in a bun and then put her hood up. Just like she would do before she was brought into the Avengers headquarters. 

As she walked back to the street she kept her head down and walked through the crowd, trying to get as far away from the Avengers tower as she possibly could on foot without using her power. 

As she got to bus station she looked behind her and looked up at the Avengers tower rising above the buildings that are around it. She wiped the last tear from her cheek and walked into the building to buy a ticket. 

Time for Spectra to disappear.
