Asher was being held in a headlock by one of Elizabeth's men with a gun pressed to the muzzle.

"You let go of him right now," Kathleen threatened the man, fingertips crackling with electricity. Nico was beside her, taking calculated steps forward.

"You shoot ice or electricity into me, I'll shoot a bullet into him," the man threatened, his voice thick with accent, "Come on, let's do this."

Nathan skidded to a stop behind the two enhanced and noticed the situation, "Look, I can help you guys," he stepped towards them, "You've just got to—"

"Stand back!" Nico stretched out a hand at him threateningly, "Don't make me hurt you."

"Stay outta this," Kathleen added.

The three turned to the front when they heard a bullet shot and a loud, pained groaned; the man had shot a bullet into Asher's thigh. He raised the blood-tainted muzzle and pressed it back to the super soldier's temple, "Come on, I'm not afraid of little girls.

Nathan caught sight of the staircase nearby and an idea sparked in his mind.

"You—" Nico growled, charging forward.

But Kathleen stopped her, "Don't. The next one might be to his head. Don't risk it."

The two kept taking slow steps forward as the man kept dragging Asher back along with him. They reached an elevator and the man pressed the button. Once the doors opened, the man rushed in dragging Asher along with him. Nico and Kathleen were helplessly frozen in their places at the doors of the elevators closed.

A large gunshot sound went off, making the two enhanced's blood run cold. Hurrying to the elevator, they pressed the button, expecting to see the dead body of their best friend.

Instead, Nathan was staring down at the slumped body of the man, a bullet etched into the junction of his shoulder and neck.

Asher took his hand when he held it out and tried to stand up, but ended up stumbling in his place at a loss of balance. Nathan was quick to hold him by his waist and hoist him up, "Gotcha."

Y/N was hurrying down a corridor, looking for Elizabeth and thinking of a way to free the women trapped in Cyro.

"DAVID?"

"Yes. Ms. Dmitri?"

"Are you able to access the CCTV footage of this warehouse?" she held up a pistol as she kicked a door open, luckily that being the one which contained the Cyro tanks of the women being held.

"Of course, Ms. Dmitri."

"Great," she let out a sigh of relief, "Send word to Agent Hill about our situation."
