The Star Spangled Inventor: Love and Pain

As Juno and the Inventor returned to the bunker, they went to dinner. The cafeteria was serving steak and lobster that night. They shared a moment together that was tender and sweet. The next morning, they were hard at work, making the next generation of technology. The two were a great pair and worked well together. Juno kept up on feeding Liberty Bell information while the Inventor tinkered around inside of Liberty's chest, making minor upgrades and tweaks to the automaton.

"Liberty Bell begin defensive protocol test."

Using her jetpack, the Inventor flew around Liberty accessing her functions while Juno ran the program. Their success was short lived as sensor alarms went off.

"Incoming missile strike, take shelter immediately."

Without even a second passing, the missiles rock the bunker, the Fortress shaken to it core as the barrage of missiles slam into the door. "Juno! I'm stuck!" yelled the Inventor. Her leg was pinned under gantry debris.

"Liberty Bell, lift the girder!"

The Automaton lifts the steel beam off of her leg and Juno helps get her to safety.

"All personnel be advised, the bunker doors have been compromised, all military personnel to the doors."

The Ghost and the Inferno were holding back enemies they were trying to break through.

"Son of a bitch, we can't seal these doors!"

"Juno! Call Liberty Bell over here! We need the help!"

"She's on her way! Good luck guys!"

Juno rushed the injured Inventor to the medical bay, then returned to the doors. She grabbed her pulse machine gun and opened fire.

"YOU'RE ALL INTERRUPTING MY DATE! FUCK OFF!"

Liberty Bell grabs the doors and begins to close them, the Supers had one final trick up their sleeve. The Assassin fires a volley of smoke grenades into the open doors, the gas burned any flesh it touched, The Ghost grabbed the grenades and tossed them outside, his own flesh burning as the lobbed canisters out of the bunker as Liberty slammed the doors shut. However, the Ghost and Juno were outside. The pair fought back the Supers, the Ghost going even as far as to shove a canister of gas down one's throat. Juno ripped open the Supers as if they were made of paper. The pulse cannon she was wielding stopped hearts and fried brains as she let her frustration out on the genetically enhanced space dwellers.

Once they began to retreat, the two went inside through the service entrance.

Once inside, Juno ran to the medical bay to see her date, who had been give crutches.

"Still want that second date?"

Juno smiled and helped her to her room. "Of course, I do, we can just watch a movie and I'll bring over the popcorn!"

The Inventor smiled. "Brianna, my name is Brianna."

Juno blushes as she ran to her room to get popcorn and informed the Ghost she would be busy for a while. To which he simply replied.

"Have fun, tell Brianna I said to go easy on you."

She rushed down the corridor to get started on her second date.
