3rd Person POV

Clint throws the Ronin look-a-like against a brick wall, ripping their mask and hood off, and winding up his hand for a punch. But he stops upon revealing that the Ronin look-a-like is a scared girl with dark black hair

"Come on!" Clint exclaims angrily

"You're... You're Hawkeye!" The girl exclaims excitedly and out of breath. Then, her eyes wander over to Nikita. "And you're one of the Maximoff Twins!" She exclaims

"And who the hell are you?" Nikita questions, her accent lacing her question as she crosses her arms over her chest

"I'm Kate Bishop." The girl, Kate Bishop, answers through gasps of breath

"You're a kid." Clint says, pulling away from almost punching her. "My God. How did you get this suit?"

"I..." Kate struggles for words and then sirens blare

"We gotta go." Nikita says

Clint looks at Kate. "Look, we gotta get you out of here. Okay? It's not safe for you to be in this. Do you live near here?"

"Yeah." Kate answers. "I live just–"

"Okay." Clint says. "Here, take this." He says, grabbing the mask of the Ronin suit from the ground. "Are you okay?"

"I'm really fine." Kate says. "I..."

"Come on. Let's go." Clint says

"I saw a dead body." Kate says. "It was a first."

"We'll talk about it when you get there." Clint tells her, pushing her down the alley

The group of three walk down the street late at night. Kate presses a cloth to a gash on her forehead

"Where'd you learn to fight?" Clint asks Kate as they walk. Nikita listens but she is also tuned into her surroundings, watching the streets around the group

"I, uh, started taking martial arts when I was five." Kate says

"Wow. So, like, a year ago?" Clint quips

A man walks past the group and Nikita nudges Clint who pulls Kate closer to him. Once the man is gone, Clint lets go

"Are... Are you assessing threats, Nikita?" Kate questions, watching how Nikita's eyes continue to wander around the area. "Is that what you're doing?"

"Something like that." Nikita answers

"That's how you operate?" Kate questions. "Nikita just constantly looks for things that are suspicious or weird and then you tag team with her?" She asks Clint

"Uh-huh." Clint says. "We have each other's backs." He says, taking a glance around the area as well

"Look, just so you know, I'm not some total noob, right?" Kate says. "Um... I was a little overwhelmed, but I held my own with those douchebags. We're right here." She says, gesturing to a pizza shop. "Um, some people have called me the world's greatest archer."

"Yeah? Are you one of those people?" Clint asks

"Well, one of them is." Kate says. "Yes."

"That's wonderful." Clint says sarcastically. "Open the door."

"Yes." Kate says, pulling her keys out and unlocking the door of the pizza shop

The group of three walk in and Kate goes up the stairs. Clint thuds his head against the glass door and Nikita watches
