A.I.M. Part 14

Pietro, Psylocke and Wanda went ahead and started a massacre against these guys.

Laura, Rogue, Riri and I walk around the place calmly.

"How weak these guys are, I thought they would put up a little more resistance" a bored Pietro said while at high speed he hit the men who impeded his advance.

"Don't talk nonsense and finish these guys off quickly" Wanda said as she stopped her attackers.

After taking care of the men who were guarding the place, we began to check the surroundings.

Pietro searched the entire place at high speed.

When he comes back, he says:

"I found a room and it looks like someone is locked inside"

Raising my eyebrow, I say:

"Lead the way"

Pietro nods and leads us into the locked room.

Upon arrival, Psylocke opens the door with an energy dagger.

When the door opens, we see inside the room that it is dark and a tired voice is heard that says:

"Who's there? Please let me go"

I quickly turn on the lights in the place. When the room lights up, in the middle of the room a woman is seen tied to a chair.

The woman is surprised to see us and quickly asks:

"Who are you, where is Aldrich?"

Looks like she is Maya Hansen.

Before I could say anything to her, Riri's shocked voice cuts me off.

"Aunty Maya, is that you?"

We are all surprised by what Riri said.

From what Riri told me, she shouldn't have any living relatives.

So I ask her:

"Riri, do you know her?"

"Yes, she was a good friend of my mother's, but months before my parents' accident, she traveled abroad for her job," she answered.

As Maya is untied by Pietro, she says:

"It's you Riri, I haven't seen you in a long time. The last I heard of you was that you were under the care of the governor of Genosha" when she finished speaking, she hugs Riri.

Nobody said anything and we let them have their moment.

When they finished their hug, Riri told Maya how she had been.

"I see, you went through a lot. The good thing is that Mr. Alex took care of you, I really appreciate it" Maya said while thanking me.

"Don't worry about it, just tell us what you were doing here" I said.

She agreed and told us everything.

According to her, she was working for Omnitech and her research focused on the Extremix. When she discovered that Aldrich was misusing the Extremix, she threatened to charge him with the authorities, so they locked her in this room.

"What are you going to do now? If you don't have a place to go, you can come to work in Genosha" I said.

After thinking about it and being persuaded by Riri, Maya agreed.

Once we finish here, we left the place.

I knew Aldrich was fighting Tony, but it didn't bother me as I knew Tony would win.
