Chapter 2: A New Power

Malila's POV

Just like Coach had told me to, I went to Director Fury's office and gently knocked. He yelled "COME IN!" and I opened the door.
"Director Fury," I mumbled. "Coach Barton told me to come to you about my skill in Martial Arts."
"Is there a certain place you want to be?" Fury questioned.
"I don't care, I just wanted to know what I needed to do," I replied.
"Well, I will need to test you. Now, go and change. Meet me back here in one hour tops and I will have your test ready," Fury ordered.
"Yes sir, but I have one question."
"What is it?"
"What about my classes? Won't I get in trouble for missing them?" I questioned.
"No, I will message your teachers and let them know that you are here," Fury replied. I nodded and walked out, closing the door softly behind me. As I walked down the narrow corridor, I thought about how and what I would do for my test. Where would I end up? Would it be good? If so, how good? Would I ever see Carter again? So many questions filled my mind but I put them aside when I arrived at my bunker.
"I won't let ya down, Director Fury," I said. "I promise."

Exactly 45 minutes later I left my bunker and walked down the hallway to get to Director Fury's office. It was a long and confusing path, but after three years I had it memorized. Once I got there, I saw a red head that looked dangerous. She had emerald green eyes that shone with a kind of brutalness that S.H.I.E.L.D. looks for. She was wearing a tight black suit that reminded me of cat woman. Then, I realized that this was Natasha Romanoff, AKA Black Widow.
"Malila, good. Meet Natasha Romanoff. Agent Romanoff meet Agent Malila Bowne," Fury introduced. We shook hands.
"It's a pleasure," Agent Romaoff said.
"Pleasure's all mine," I answered softly, though keeping my grip firm.
"Natasha, I'm gonna need you to test Malila for any powers, skills, etc for the Avengers Initiative," Fury whispered, not wanting me to hear, though my super sensative hearing picked it up anyway. Natasha nodded and took me to the training area.
"Now, Malila, right? Yes, OK. Time to show me what you know. Try and take out this dummy," Agent Romanoff ordered. I nodded, took off my glasses, and started to fight the dummy, as though it was living and trying to kill me. I kicked it down with both feet for a roundhouse and moved on to the next. This continued for eight more dummies and finally Agent Romanoff called time.
"Good job, Agent Bowne! I've never seen such skill at such a young age," Natasha smiled a small smile as I put my glasses on. I returned it and we started on the next test.
"Okay, Agent Bowne, I need you to come up with a plan that is easy and quick witted so that you can survive to see tomorrow," Agent Romanoff explained. I nodded and started on the plan. Finally, I finished and Natasha nodded, approving of the hard work I did to make a full proof plan in thirty seconds.
Now, things get wierd.
We started to battle against each other and it turned up that I was beating Natasha. All of a sudden, water flowed from my hands and I screamed, terrified. Natasha dodged the attack and ran to me to check and see if I was okay. I was absolutely terrified and didn't know what to say or think. What the heck just happened? Was that water? Did I hurt anyone? Can I hurt anyone?
I finally realized that I was crying, my glasses were broken, and Agent Romanoff was rubbing my back in a comforting manner. I wiped my tears away and looked into her emerald green eyes.
"Why aren't you running?" I asked.
"Because I've dealt with people like you. People who can't control their powers and need help. Don't worry, just follow me," Natasha replied. I nodded and she lead me down the familiar black hallway into Nick Fury's office.
"How'd it go, Agent?" Fury asked.
"She can control water with her hands. No other power usuage yet, sir," Natasha replied in a formative manner. "Also, her glasses are broken." Fury nodded and pulled her aside to talk. When they got back, Agent Romanoff took me to a jet.
Where was I going?
