Chaper 2- Pizza Delivery

"I'm… Kate… Bishop." Kate said, gasping in between words.

"You're a kid… My God. Is that other kid with you?" Barton asked.

"Ye- Yeah." She replied.

"How did you get this suit?" Barton questioned again.

"Wee! Woo! Wee! Woo!" Hearing multiple sirens, Barton said that Kate wasn't safe in the Ronin costume.

"Do you live near here?" He asked her.

"Yea- I- live here." She said still trying to adjust to the entire thing.

"Ok, listen to me, I'm going to go pick up your friend, stay here." Barton said, putting the hood on, to avoid getting caught.

After getting to Kate's apartment they started to discuss the details of how Kate got her hands on the suit, who she came into contact with, who all knew she took it, etc.

Before long, however, a voice could be heard yelling, "Hey, Kate Bishop!".

-1st Person Pov-

"Sniff. Sniff."

'What's that smell.' I think to myself, still all groggily and out of it.

"Hey! Hey kid! Wake up!" I hear someone saying.

"Who?" As I was about to ask who was talking to me, I heard glass shattering and fire set ablaze. Immediately feeling the heat near me, I jolted awake.

My mind working at crazy high speeds to gather all the information it could.

I got knocked out, I'm in Kate's apartment, which means… the scene where the mafia people throw Molotov's is happening right now.

And given that I'm sitting at the table, I'm in the danger zone.

"Holy shit!" I yell, as I jumped out of the seat, and sprinted towards the two people in front of me.

"What the hell is happening?" I ask them. Looking at the fire and the two broken windows.

"Those idots are back." Kate says to me as she runs further upstairs.

"Break!"

Hearing glass break, I turn around and Clint has managed to catch a molotov and proceeded to throw it out the window, pretty fuckin' badass.

"How'd you do that!" I asked him, with my jaw on the floor.

Before he could reply, the thugs grabbed another one and were about to throw it when, an arrow flew true and struck the bottle of liquor, breaking it before they could throw it at us.

Both of us turning around, we see a Kate with her bow drawn, aiming at the people down below.

"Told ya." She says.

"Yeah." Clint mutters.

Seeing that the thugs were preoccupied, Clint focused his attention on the Ronin suit, which Kate immediately addressed with an arrow to the fire extinguisher. Making it go crazy, eventually breaking a window and landing in front of the mafia people to which they started mocking us.

"We gotta get out of here. Is there a fire escape?" I asked Kate.

"Oh, and also, nice to meet you both. I'm Liam. And it's honor to have fought you, sir." I said as I introduced myself to both of them.

"Yeah, yeah, introductions later. Grab the dog and let's get outta here!" Clint orders as we stand up and start making our way to the fire escape.

"Wee! Woo! Wee! Woo!"

Police, ambulance and firefighter, sirens could be could be heard as we made our way down.

After getting on the ground I heard Kate say-

"Kate. My name's Kate. Thanks for helping me out back there.", acknowledging her words, I said that it wasn't a big deal, Clint who heard us talking said we needed to hurry up, and so we did what he told us to do.

A short while later, we ended up on a subway station.

"Where are we going?" Kate asked.

"We're getting away from those people trying to kill you." Clint said.

"Right." Kate responded, shooting me a look as she rolled her eyes.

"What are we planning on doing after that? They obviously know her name, she isn't safe until this whole thing is resolved." I say.

"Alright listen, both of you. We'll need some supplies, both of you have wounds that need tending too. After that, we need to find a place where I can stash the both of you until this whole thing is over with." Clint said.

"Stash us? We're not bags of money." Kate said sarcastically.

After some more bickering we got on the subway and made our way to a pharmacy.

…

"Okay, we're gonna need rubbing alcohol, q-tips, band-aids, neosporin…" as Clint was describing what we needed, I grabbed all the stuff he was saying.

After getting everything we made our way to the register.

"Hey… yeah… thank you." Did I mention that I'm rich? Like I come from a wealthy family, and that was why I was at that charity auction? No! Well now you know. So after talking to the register guy, I paid for the supplies.

"Hey so, uh, I may know a place." Kate said to Clint as we stepped onto the sidewalk.

"Oh, and where's that at?" He asked.

"It's about 10 blocks away from here." She said.

"Okay, let's go check it out." Clint said.

…

Arriving at the apartments, Kate pressed 6D. After not getting a response she proceeded to click all the buttons.

"Y'ello." Asked a man.

"Yes, hey, hi, I got pizza." Kate stammered.

"What?" Asked the man with confusion

"Yeah, pizza…" Kate continued, mumbling her words.

After 'chatting' with the guy on the speaker, the buzzer rang out, letting us know that the door had been unlocked.

Climbing up the stairs, we got to apartment 6D.

"Not exactly a fortress, but it'll do, right?" Clint said.

"Yeah well, beggars can't be choosers. Plus it's my aunt's place, and she's out of town for the winter." Kate replied, asking me to hold her bow and then taking out her lock picking tools.

Getting inside, I placed everything down.

"Okay, now that we're inside, I need you guys to clean your wounds. Use this. Use soap, this and disinfect it. Now, stay here. Okay? I'll be right back, I'm going to go back to Kate's apartment and see if I can't get that suit. Copy?" Clint asked.

"Crystal." I replied.

"Yep." Kate replied.

"Ok, I'll see you guys later." He said, heading towards the door.

…

"So, your names Kate?" I asked.

"Yeah, sorry about that, nice to meet you Liam, my name's Kate Biship." She said, extending a hand towards me.

"Yeah, nice to properly meet you, names Liam Mariano. I guess we'll be taking care of each other from here on. At least until Clint handles whatever it is these Tracksuit people want." I said, shaking her hand.

"Yeah. There's uh, only one bathroom, do you-"

"No, no, it's okay, you go first." I said, interrupting her.

"Thanks." She said with a slight smile, as she moved to her Aunt's room.

'I guess it's time I go buy some new clothes, I saw a clothes shop not too far from here. I should be back just in time.' I thought to myself as I heard the bathroom door close.

Time for action.
