The Death of Sasha Karpov Отрежь одну голову, на ее место займут две. ✯
Chapter 1
Chapter 2
The young Karpov girl had spent the day at her parents home just a few miles from the Hydra Siberian outpost where they worked. They lived most of their days at the compound, but today her parents wanted her home, something about doing some unsafe explosive testing. The girl may have been only nine, but she knew her parents were lying. Something more was going on, but she did not argue. Eventually she would return to the compound and do her normal sneaking around to find the answers she sought.
It was nearly ten o'clock by the time her parents arrived back home. Sasha walked towards the front of the house as they hurried up the pathway, and as soon as the door opened she knew something was wrong. Her father James was holding white cloth against the side of his face, crimson liquid escaping the broken flesh of his skin along his temple. Her mother Katrina seemed frantic as she caught site of Sasha standing there a few feet away. "Пойдем, Саша, пора идти!" Her mother said, but before she could take another step, their attention was drawn by the screeching of tires in the driveway. Sasha looked to her parents who were clearly scared of something, which said a lot considering those within Hydras world feared nothing. The young girl became worried as her father moved quickly to her side, grabbing her arm and pulling her down the hall.
"Вы должны спрятаться, вы меня понимаете? Не позволяй дяде найти тебя!" Sashas father said, before stopping down the hall and pushing open a small panel in the wall. Her father shoved her inside but paused as his gaze caught her own. His bloodied hand reached up to press against her face, rough fingers rubbing against her cheek. He wished he had time to explain, time to watch her grow up and help them fight the mistakes they had made. But that time was up, and he knew this was the end for he and his wife. "Дорогой мой Саша. Вы долго спрашивали меня о человеке в танке. У меня нет времени объяснять, но знайте, вы были правы. Мы ошибались. Не забывай, что Саша. Я тебя люблю."
Before Sasha could respond, he slid the panel back into place and hurried back towards her mother. The girl was tempted to follow, but she knew her father would not have put her there if she was not in serious danger. Her thoughts began to overwhelm her. Why had he changed his mind about the man in the tank, the one who always looked so sad when he had to go back inside? Why was he bleeding, and worst of all, what were they so scared of? Before she could get her answers, a loud bang sounded from the front door as it was broken down by several men. Sasha could hear shouting and a moment later her mother screamed.
The young girls breathes became panicked, and she fought every urge not to run to her parents. Sasha managed to slip the panel out ever so slightly so she could see what was going on. Several HYDRA soldiers had filled the hallway, among them brown hues could make out her uncle Vasily Karpov, the man her father warned her about. Why would uncle Vasily want to hurt her father?
"Вы брат-предатель, и за это вы оба погибнете." Vasily said, shoving her father to his knees while another soldier followed suit with his mother. Sasha could barely make out the tears in her mothers eyes as her uncle raised his weapon and pulled the trigger. BANG. A slight shift of his hand. BANG. Sashas hand covered her mouth and she sunk back into the hideaway, pulling the panel back into place. All of her training would come into play now, and survival was her only option. Shouts could be heard as her uncle ordered the soldiers to find her. Sasha knew they wouldn't kill her, she was too young. No, what HYDRA would do would be much worse, and she would likely become much like the man who lived in the tank. Without hesitation, her fight mode kicked in, and she moved down the hidden passgeway, knowing the cramped space would lead to a tunnel that would exit out two miles away from the home.
В этот момент умер Саша Карпов и родилась женщина, известная теперь как Аварен Маккой.
