Seventeen

I let out another cough.

"Hang on Punk. We'll stop soon." Scarlet says.

"I shouldn't. We have to get the codes." I say.

"We can't get anything if you die." Scarlet points out.

I cough again. My throat is starting to feel really dry and I'm having a mayor headache. I don't know what to do. This could be the sword wound or the shadows. They've started growing on my legs and my hip. But honestly these are wicked socks. Scarlet sits me down.

"I'll be right back." He pulls a rope. 

I look down. This is exhausting. I can barely keep walking. I feel bad. I'm dragging Scarlet to the ground. He's in this because of me. It's only a matter of time before Hydra agents come running towards us. I'm slowing him down. 

"Hey, got some water. Well, I kind of stole it, but it's Hydra so I don't care." He says.

"Scarlet *cough* *cough* you can leave if you want to." I cough.

"What are you talking about." He raises an eyebrow.

I point to my wound.

"Oh you got to be kidding me." He says.

I cough again.

"You are not slowing me down punk. Just drink this." He says.

I pull my mask up just to drink the water. I grab it and I chug it down.

"Look punk, if you think fulfilling this mission is that important, I'm with you." He says.

Our Spidey-sense starts ringing.

"Find them! Check over there!" A voice yells.

"Yeah... we should go." He grabs my arm.
