《Bird Set Free | Natasha Romanoff ✓》Chapter Three
Advertisement
Aquila stood nearby while Agent Coulson and Captain Rogers talked. It was quite funny to watch Agent Coulson was completely enthralled to meet Captain Rogers, it was almost like watching someone meet a celebrity.
"I mean, if it's not too much trouble." Agent Coulson said.
"No, no. It's fine." Captain Rogers responded.
"It's a vintage set. It took me a couple of years to collect them all. Near mint, slight foxing around the edges, but..."
Agent Coulson never got to finish describing his beloved vintage Captain America cards as one of the S. H. I. E. L. D. agents sitting nearby interrupted him.
"We got a hit. Sixty-seven percent match. Wait, cross match, seventy-nine percent."
"Location?" Agent Coulson asked.
"Stuttgart, Germany. 28, Konigstrasse. He's not exactly hiding."
"Captain and Miss Cadman." Director Fury as Captain Rogers and Aquila turned to look to Director Fury. "You're up."
Aquila shared a look with Captain Rogers, who was led away into a different room, where supposedly his new Captain America outfit lay.
Aquila looked down at her current attire and shook her head slightly as a chuckle escaped her lips. She never needed a special uniform for herself, once she shifted back from her eagle form, she would be wearing exactly the same attire. It contradicted the idea often showed in pop culture or people shifting and them ripping their clothes. It was just what made Aquila's culture so different.
Eventually, Aquila met back up with Captain Rogers in the Quinjet, with him fully changed into his new skin-tight outfit.
Aquila gave the Captain, a small smile. "It's gotta be strange, right? All of this." Aquila asked, gesturing to the Quinjet around her. "You didn't get much of a choice, just a long as sleep and a new century."

Captain Rogers nodded along in agreement with her words. "It's definitely different but some things are quite familiar."
A few hours later, the Quinjet was pulling into their location, the back door opened as Aquila jumped out, shifting into her eagle form in a few seconds. Captain Rogers would be following her not too long after.
"Look to your elder, people," the Asgardian, Loki said below Aquila, pointing his scepter towards the older man. "Let him be an example."
Just as the blast from the scepter was about to hit the old man, Captain America jumped in front of the man, the blast easily ricocheting off the vibranium shield and knocking Loki down the ground.
Captain America began approaching Loki as Aquila swooped down extending her winds before landing on Captain America's shoulder, her talons bared.
"You know, the last time I was in Germany and saw a man standing above everybody else, we ended up disagreeing."
"The soldier." Loki slowly spoke. "A man out of time. And a giant eagle."
Captain America and Aquila watched as Loki's lips slowly spread into a smile that covered his face, letting out a small laugh.
"How patriotic." Loki mocked.
"I'm not the one who's out of time." Captain America said as the Quinjet arrived behind them.
A machine gun from the Quinjet was pointed at Loki as Agent Romanoff's voice filled the air.
"Loki, drop the weapon and stand down."
Aquila took back to the skies watching as from below as Captain America and Loki began to fight, waiting for an opening. After a few moments, she found it, swooping down her talons outstretched before Loki carelessly tossed her to the side as civilians scrambled out of the way.

Aquila shook her feather out, gathering her thoughts, before extending her wings and taking flight again. She watched as Loki tried to get Captain America to kneel.
"Kneel!" Loki shouted.
"Not today!" Captain America shouted back.
Aquila swooped back down, successfully knocking Loki over with her talons before flying back up again out of reach about to attack again but before she could, Iron Man suddenly appeared, knocking Loki back down to the ground.
Aquila watched as Iron Man's repulser powered up as well as every piece of weaponry that his suit had. The god was more than outnumbered now.
"Make a move, Reindeer Games."
Captain America moved to stand beside Iron Man as Aquila swooped lower, just above the heads of the two men. The three of them watched as Loki put his hands up to surrender as his armor materialized away.
Iron Man's weapons and repulsers powered down.
"Good move." Iron Man said.
"Mr. Stark."
"Captain."
Aquila let out a small caw to announce her presence. "An eagle?" Iron Man asked. "That's a new one."

In Pursuit of Bark's Finest
On the frontiers of transhumanity’s expansion into the galaxy thousands of light years from the light of Sol, things can get rather chaotic. There are countless millions of nascent interstellar nations securing their interests, pirate ships prospering off plunder and deniable mercenary work, dissidents setting up their own civilizations, and other groups all trying to push an agenda. When these groups crash into each other, the results can become extremely messy and convoluted. Recently, a frontier nation calling itself the Red Star Union has found itself at the focal point of one such complication. A freighter under their protection has been sabotaged, hijacked in interstellar space, and robbed of its cargo. This would be bad enough even if all it were carrying was luxury goods, but the freighter Nebula Plow was carrying more than just normal trade goods. Indeed, her cargo of Non-Orientable Wormholes for use in starship power plants was both very expensive and very, very dangerous. Now the Red Star Union has to worry about a pirate crew running around with several extra devices capable of converting matter into antimatter with negligible energy cost. With those, the pirates could be capable of inflicting untold damage if allowed to leverage their ill-gotten gains into a stronger position, a possibility the Union finds completely intolerable. Unfortunately, all that the Red Star Union has to go on for evidence is two names; that of the captain, and that of the ship. The Captain is going by the possible pseudonym of Fuller, while the ship is named Bark’s Finest. And thus the orders came down to the Union’s Bureau of Starforce Intelligence: find more information on these pirates, conclusively identify them, and figure out where exactly they’ve gone to ground so that the fleet can crush them before they get established. Of the many agents that the bureau assigned to this mission, one would happen to play an important role: Field Agent Madeline Zargosty. This is her story. This story is entirely pre-written, and will have one chapter released per week. If you want to read it all ahead of schedule and get access to some premium-exclusive bonus content, the entire book is available for purchase; links to the appropriate storefront pages will be posted at the end of each chapter. This story is also being posted to Scribblehub.
