The Trio pull up to the Mall

why are we here again -Steve

we need a Computer -Rory

Steve nods a little as they get out of the car and begin walking towards the mall

Natasha and Steve walk in front of Rory who makes sure there's a little distance and keeps an eye out

how does no one recognize us -Steve

no one pays attention to their surroundings. it's kind of sad sometimes -Natasha

Also, the first rule of going on the run is don't run. Walk -Rory

if I run in these shoes they're gonna fall off -Steve laughs a little

no one said anything else for the rest of the walk till they got to the store

Natasha walked over to the laptop and she begin typing away

The drive has a level six homing program so as soon as we boot up S.H.I.E.L.D will know exactly where we are -Natasha

how much time will we have -Steve

about nine minutes from now -Natasha says putting the drive into the laptop

Fury was right. about that ship. somebody or somebodies are trying to hide something -Natasha

Steve and Rory look to the laptop

this drive is protected by some sort of AI. it keeps rewriting itself to counter my commanders -Natasha

Freedom -Rory

yes Rory -Freedom

what the hell was that -Steve looks around confused

Freedom. Rory's AI she created -Natasha

what can you tell us about this AI -Rory

it's advanced. not as much as me but it's very advanced and old... it is almost like its alive -Freedom

they share a look

can you override it -Steve

the person who developed this is slightly smarter than me. slightly -Natasha

wow -Rory says mockingly

Natasha swats her

I'm gonna try running a tracer. this is a program that S.H.I.E.L.D developed to track hostile malware so if we can't read the file maybe we can find out where it came from -Natasha

I can't risk Freedom hacking it either. it's too risky with all the Intel she has and it took me months of work to make her -Rory

when did you make her and why -Steve

after my trip to space. Figured it would be a way so if something like that happens again then you'd be able to find me and such. Nat knows what to do if I go missing no matter what Freedom will be able to find me if she refuses to say its because I told her not to say or something and for the record, even Stark won't be able to hack her. it's why i spent months on her to make sure -Rory smirks

Can I help you guys with anything? -Guy

oh no. my fiance was just helping me with some honeymoon destinations -Rory says wrapping her arms around Steve

Steve hesitates for a second before Rory pinches his hip

right we're getting married -Steve says wrapping his arm around Rory

Congratulations and what about the person behind you -Worker

she's my older sister. she's helping me keep this one in line he can be quite the handful -Rory
