Madelynn's POV
I was awaken by the splash of cold water onto my bruised skin. I tossed and fought, only to find out I was bound to two poles by my wrists and ankles with tight leather straps.

"Easy soldier." Baron said approaching me. I looked around to see that I was barely clothed and in a room full of scientists and guards. "Marine Soldier you didn't complete the mission now did you?"

I stared aimlessly into his face still thinking about the man who called me "Lynnie". Why did it sound so normal and familiar. I was snapped out by a slap across the face by the Baron.

"Answer my question. Did. You. Complete. The mission?" "No Baron." I said facing him again. "Exactly." He said heading to a nearby guard. He whispered to the man, "Torture her until she gets it right." My eyes widen at the statement. A grin came onto the man's face as I tried to break free.

A strong shock of energy went through my body coming from my back. When I didn't give him a satisfactory response he drew a knife and stabbed me deep in my abdomen. A scream escaped my lips as he dragged it lower and lower.

Being satisfied he stabbed me several more times in my thighs and stomach. Tears formed in my eyes. Not from pain or sadness but from anger.

Punches then hurled into my open wounds, upper body and face. This torture repeated and happened for an hour and a half.

I was out of breath and exhausted. Blood flooded the floor and made my clothes scarlet red. I was light headed and dizzy as the guards laughed at how weak I seemed to them. The tremendous amount of blood loss caused me to faint.

I woke up on the cold concrete ground in my cell. My clothing didn't change. The only good thing was that my wounds were healing thanks to the super soldier serum I'm constantly injected with. I groaned trying to sit up as the pain still lingered.

Still being weak and lightheaded, I fell on my side causing some of the healing wounds to open. Fuck. I thought. My gaze shifted around and saw that no one was there. I looked back at my wounds and estimated that I've been out cold for 3 hours.

I closed my eyes in an attempt to sleep but just saw the laughing faces of the guards. How I hated them all. I reopened my eyes to see that guards were approaching my cell with a tray of food.

"The Baron sent this." He said placing it onto the ground for me as if I was some animal. I picked up the tray and ate in a corner. Damn the Baron was bipolar. One moment he's sweet the other he's the devil himself.

"He also said to hurry and eat. You have another mission." I complied and ate faster, afraid of wasting more of the Baron's time.

(In short she changed into the sane clothing, got the same weapons and is now at the Baron's office.)

"Marine Soldier your task is to kill the avengers." "And who are the 'avengers' Baron?" "The same persons who foiled your mission yesterday." I gave him a look of hesitation not wanting to harm Tin Man.

"Having second thoughts are we?" He asked. Baron approached me, standing a few meters away. "Longing, rusted, seventeen.." I stood there afraid but unable to move under the words' control.

"Daybreak, furnace, nine, benign..." My mind was fighting itself trying to keep these words out but failed miserably . "Homecoming, one, freight car." My mind wanted me to scream but my lips instead said, "Ready to comply."

"Good." Baron said walking back to his chair. My inner self was frightened and trapped again. Any emotion that threatened to come back, was locked away with my inner self while the key was thrown into a river.

"Now complete your mission. Don't disappoint me." "Yes Baron." My legs dragged me out of the room into the van.

This time we got a sponsor. Brought to you by The Captain America Show.

We were in the van heading to a party Alexander was attending for future buyers. The avengers were going to be there, both completing my job of killing them and protecting Pierce. My only purpose now was to not disappoint. No. Matter. What.
