A scream rang through the alleyway. A burly man drunkenly slammed a frail woman against the brick wall.

"C'mon sweetie. Let's see what's under that pretty dress," the man slurred as the woman cried out for help. He tried to keep her quiet, but when she didn't comply he slapped her. A sharp cry tore through her lips until he cut her off by covering her mouth.

"No lady appreciates a neanderthal coming on to them. Especially one that is drunk."

The drunk man swiveled his head around. "Who's there?"

Stepping out of the shadows, I stood under the only light, "Be a gentleman and step away from the lady, please."

He let out a howl of laughter as he shoved the woman against the wall even more. "Oh, another masked freak..." He staggered sluggishly toward me. I crossed my arms as I sigh. "And why would I do that, little missy? Y'know you can join in on the fun," he winked and licked his lips.

I mentally gagged. Why are there perverted pigs in the world? An idea sprung in my head. A small smirk graced my lips. "Well, why don't you come over here? I can show you what real fun is."

The man chuckled as he left the woman and stumbled toward me. I could smell his breath as he loomed over me. The strong smell of whiskey and cigarettes made me wrinkle my nose in disgust. Hopefully this guy won't be too much of a pain to handle.

"I'm waiting," he said. I kept my mouth shut, my eyes averted to the ground. He put his calloused hand under my chin and lifted my head up. Snapping my eyes open, my glowing irises made contact with his. His pupils began to expand until his irises was no longer visible. Perfect.

"You will escort yourself to the police station and confess every and all crimes to the first police officer you come across," I ordered him without batting an eyelash.

"I will escort myself to the police station and confess every and all crimes to the first police officer I come across," He repeated monotonically before walking off almost robotic to the nearest police station.

Blinking slowly as my power ebbed, I quickly walked over to the trembling woman, "Are you alright, ma'am?" I asked, placing a hand on her shoulder as I checked her over for any injuries.

She shakily nodded her head, "Thank you so much!" She sobbed out. I smiled at her.

"It is no trouble at all. Just get home safe, alright?" With another nod and a word of thanks, she scurried off toward home.

"Neat trick," a voice boomed down the alleyway.

"What is? Saving a woman from an alcoholic? Someone has to do it," I responded nonchalantly to the faceless voice.

"True, but I wasn't talking about that." A dark skinned male came up from behind me. "That hypnotism thing you did. Pretty impressive."

I quirked a brow at him. "You mean the power of persuasion? Oh yeah, totally something to go crazy over..." I quipped, taking a step back.

"Right, right. What was I thinking? You must be a master of persuasion. So masterful that you just have them repeat what you say as they turn into a mindless zombie and follow your order."

"Anything is possible," I stated with a shrug of my shoulders. "Now what is it you want?"

"We need someone with your skill set."

"'We?' Who's we?"

"Captain America needs your help."

Author's Note:

I know, I know. Another Avengers story? Well... Yes! I've been meaning to publish this on here since Spiderman: Homecoming. I had it posted on my Wattpad, but I don't really go on there as much anymore so I just transferred it over here.

It does not in any means that I'm going to abandon If You. That will still be written! So no worries!

I hope you guys enjoyed this little snippet of what's to come.

There will be another chapter out sometime this week.

Until next time!
