August 18th, 1957, a day to remember for everyone who was alive that year and before. A 19 year old girl was bullied at the army camp she went to due to the fact she was the only girl there. Everyone mistreated her and used her for their likings. She had to work harder than the boys if she wanted to become a soldier in the war. The girl's name was Maria Hill and she was taller than most of the men at 5'11. The boys and men would tease her of her height and laugh at her. She obviously ignored them and minded her business. Well that was until one night when it was storming outside. She was thrown into the lake that was in the middle of the huge camp as a prank but things went extremely wrong. Lightning had struck Maria's back while she was underwater and she passed out. The boys who threw her in dashed off so they wouldn't get caught by their commander.

Maria had woken up later that night when it was midnight. She got out of the water and winced when she felt her back sting. She looked over her shoulder to see her army shirt was shredded and saw dark red strikes across her back. She saw blood dripping down the back of her shirt as well. She looked ahead at the army camp that was quiet. She looked around and clenched her jaw tightly. She absolutely hated all the men that treated her like shit. Especially the ones who threw her into the water. Her black hair hung in her face causing her to stroke her hand through it. She walked away from the lake as it continued to pour. Her shirt and pants clung to her as her boots hit against the ground causing the leaves to crunch under her feet. She made her way to her tent and walked in. She took her shirt off before taking the tank top that was under it off. She looked over at the full length mirror and saw that she had abs now and muscles. She turned around and looked over her shoulder to see the marks that the lightning strike made. She wrapped her upper half up before sitting on the bed.

She walked out of her tent the next day only in a pair of army pants and a black tank top. "Hill where's your shirt at" a ruff voice said causing Maria to look up to see the commander. "I can't find it sir" she lied as she stood up straight. "You need to keep a better eye on your things Hill" the commander spat out before he shook his head. "I will sir" Maria said before the commander walked away. Maria looked over to see the four men who threw her in staring at her in shock. She smiled sweetly before walking over. "Gentlemen what a pleasant surprise to see you" Maria said and they looked at each other before looking back at her. "What do you want" one of them said and Maria sighed before looking at them dead in the eyes. "I hope you have forgotten about last night" Maria said watching the four men stiffen. "I could tell the commander what happened or we can just start over and become friends" Maria said and a red headed man laughed. "You're seriously blackmailing us to become your friends" The man said and Maria nodded her head. "Seems like it so what's it going to be" Maria said with a raised eyebrow. "Fine whatever" another man said and Maria smirked mischievously. "Good" Maria said and walked past them. Her smile faded when she was far enough for them not to see the way her body straightened.

Weeks of Maria getting the men to trust her. The commander had sent them all on a stake out mission as requested by Maria herself. She could finally get her revenge on the four of them. The five of them had left early that morning and Maria made sure that everything was still set up. "Maria are you ready" The red headed man said and Maria jumped up. "Yeah let's go" she said as she rushed out of her tent. She hopped in the tan jeep they were taking before the black haired man drove off. Maria looked behind her and watched as the army camp grew smaller. It was the last time she would see it. The four men didn't know it would be their last day alive for the rest of their lives.

They arrived at the stake out position and got set up. "Hey Maria why did the commander want us to stake this place out" the blonde said. "Because one of the others saw our enemies walking around here" she lied as she turned to the four men. "Why send us though we're rookies" the red headed man said and Maria hummed. "Don't know" she said as she looked through her duffel bag to see everything she needed.

Night had arrived and Maria was outside sitting in front of the fire pit. She put a cigarette in her mouth before lighting it up. "You smoke" someone said and Maria looked up to see the brown haired man sit down next to her. "Yeah" Maria said as she took it away from her lips before blowing the smoke out. "Hey we're gonna go get more firewood Jared is sleeping" the black haired man said and the two nodded. Maria watched as the two walked into the woods. "So Maria" the brown haired man said as he looked back at Maria who was standing up now. Maria watched as he stood up as well before flicking her cigarette into the pit. "I'll be right back I need to get something out of my tent" Maria said and the man nodded before sitting back down. Maria came back out with a knife tightly gripped into her hand. She stopped behind the brown haired man and raised the knife up. Before she could stab him the two who went to go get wood returned. Maria clenched her jaw as she hid the knife behind her back. "We got more wood" the blonde said as he dropped the pile he was holding into the fire pit. Before she could so much as think she shoved the brown haired man into the fire. The man screamed as the other two backed up in horror. "MARIA WHAT THE HELL" the black haired man said and Maria looked at the two of them. "What's with the sh-" they all heard causing them to look at the redhead who was frozen in place. Maria looked back at the brown haired man that was laying a few centimeters away from the fire pit with his whole body burnt.

The three men dashed off in different directions and Maria cussed before she ran into her tent and grabbed her duffel bag. She slung it over her shoulders before rushing out and into the forest to find the blonde haired man and the black haired man first. "Come out wherever you are" Maria shouted as she grabbed the knife tightly causing her knuckles to turn white. She heard leaves crunching causing her to smirk. Maria walked towards a huge tree as she got ready to throw her knife when something hit her in the back of her head. She grunted before turning around to see the black haired man holding a shovel. "How the hell did you not pass out" the man shouted and Maria laughed. "You're weak that's why" Maria stated as she walked towards the man who held the shovel out. "You think a shovel will protect you" Maria continued and the man started backing up. Maria watched as he tripped over something causing him to fall and drop the shovel. "There were no enemies in our ground where there" he said as he scooted back and hit one of the trees. "Nope" Maria said popping the p.

They heard someone scream causing the two to look over to see the red headed rushing towards Maria with a gun. Maria raised an eyebrow before smirking. Before he could get close Maria threw the knife she was holding. The knife pierced through the man's head causing him to fall backwards as the gun dropped to the ground with a thud. Maria turned back to the black haired man and saw he got up and dashed off. She rushed after him and caught up to him. She kicked him in the back of his knee causing him to collapse to the ground with a grunt. Maria dropped her duffel bag and took out the hammer that was in there before stepping onto the man's back. "Come on aren't you at least gonna try and fight" Maria taunted before she chuckled. "Why are you doing this is it because of the way we treated you" the man shouted and Maria sighed before she bent down and slammed the hammer into his spine causing him to scream out. "It's revenge really but technically yes" Maria said as she put her boot on the back of the man's head before pushing his face into the ground. Maria felt him struggle under her foot and she waited a couple minutes before removing her foot. She flipped the dead man over and saw dirt covering his face and in his eyes. Even though he was already dead she went and broke his legs. She stood up and went looking for the blonde. She arrived back at the little camp they had set up to see the jeep still there. "Stop right there Maria" the blonde shouted causing Maria to look up to see the man pointing another gun at her. "That gun doesn't have any ammo in it" Maria said and the man's eyes widened in shock before he checked. He cussed before throwing the gun to the ground and held his fists up. "Let's settle this without any weapons" he stated and Maria dropped her duffle bag onto the ground again before stalking towards the man. He swung first but Maria dodged before punching him in the face.

After a while Maria's knuckles were all bloody with the man's blood and hers. When the man swung she dodged it again before punching him in the stomach. He hunched over and she took that as her chance to knee him straight in the face breaking his face even more. She backed up and watched him fall to the ground holding his stomach and grunting. Maria walked over to her duffel bag and took out the knife that still had the other man's blood on it. She walked over and kneeled down before stabbing the man in the back of his head. She twisted the knife before ripping it straight out causing blood to splatter on her face. She stood up and grabbed her duffel bag. She walked towards the jeep and threw her duffel bag in before hopping into the vehicle. As she drove away she whipped her cheek off with her thumb before licking her thumb clean. All she saw was red as her hand on the wheel tightened. Her jaw clenched tightly as she drove far away from the small camp. She had to make it look like she died as well so when she saw a lake she turned the wheel and jumped out of the jeep before it went into the water. She watched as the jeep sinked slowly into the water before walking away.

Fast forward to 2023. Y/N Y/L/N a highschool graduate. Even though Y/N was happy she was missing something or rather someone who would take care of her and protect her. Her father hasn't talked to her ever since graduation when she came out as a lesbian. Her mother had left the two when Y/N was 8 for another man. All her friends went separate ways after they all graduated. Even though they talked or messaged on the phone from time to time, she just wished someone was by her side. The apartment she lived in felt so small even if it had 5 rooms big enough for 4 people to live in it. She had moved into the apartment a month after graduation and that was 5 months ago.

It was pouring down rain and storming tonight. Lightning and thunder strike occasionally make loud booms that scare some people and animals. Y/N wasn't one of them though. She loved storms and the sounds it made. She loved the sound of the rain hitting the ground or buildings. She loved the sound of the thunder booming and she loved how the lightning would brighten the sky a little whenever it struck. Whenever it wasn't thundering or lightning she loved to go out into the rain and lay in it or dance. She would sometimes listen to music and sing her heart out.

She wiped the fog off the window and watched as cars drove through the streets of the city. "Are you seriously watching the storm again" someone said behind Y/N. She looked over her shoulder to see her neighbor standing in the doorway holding a glass dish in his hands. "Yeah" Y/N muttered out as she stopped up from the windowsill. She walked over and grabbed the glass dish before walking into the kitchen area. "What did you bring this time Philip" Y/N said and the man chuckled as he walked into the apartment. "Your favorite of course" he said as he leaned against the kitchen counter. "Red sauce pasta" Y/N said and Philip nodded his head. "You're the best" Y/N shouted before hugging him tightly.

After the two ate Philip said by before leaving Y/N's apartment and going back to his. Y/N sat down on the couch before turning her TV on. The News had popped up onto the TV saying a man around 30 had been stabbed to death with a knife. There were around 15 stab wounds in the man's chest. Y/N scrunched her face up at that and heard that they still haven't found the killer. "Of course you haven't found them you idiots the killer doesn't leave a single finger print behind or any clue" Y/N groaned out as she rubbed her forehead. The news person went on about how all the suspects the killer has killed have a missing eye or a piece of their skin. "Sounds more like a psychopath than a killer" Y/N continued as she flipped the channel.

Y/N woke up when she heard something shatter making her bolt up from the couch. She looked around the living room before standing up. She walked into the kitchen and grabbed a kitchen knife before walking quietly through the apartment until she stopped in front of her bedroom door. She twisted the doorknob and slowly opened it. When she stepped in she was shoved against the wall with a knife pressed against her neck. The knife she was holding clattered to the ground and she looked up to see a figure wearing a black and red hockey mask. She could see that the person's right eye was brown while the other one was just white. "Who the hell are you" the person said and Y/N frowned. "I could ask you the same thing and plus you're in my apartment" Y/N spat out and the figure looked around before pulling away and flipping the light on since it was dark outside. "Fuck I thought this was an empty apartment" the person growled out. Y/N bent down and was about to pick up the knife she had dropped when it was kicked away. "Don't even think about it" the person said and Y/N looked more closely at the person. They were wearing a black tight turtleneck tank top with camo army pants. They had a black belt with a silver buckle and were wearing black combat boots with silver steel plates on the toe part. There was a huge scar all the way from half their upper arm all the way down to the bottom of their elbow. Y/N saw that the person had their hair up in a messy bun. "So uh" Y/N said but trailed off when the woman pointed the knife at her. "Shut up I should kill you" the person said and Y/N gulped. Y/N looked away from the person before taking a deep breath in. The person watched as Y/N started calming down making them confused. Y/N looked back at the person with a glare and the person smirked under their mask. "You're not like all the others I killed" the person said before taking their mask off and throwing it to the side. Y/N gasped at the beauty that was standing in front of her. The person was a woman who had a small scar just above her lip and three huge scars on her left eye.

The woman looked over to see Y/N just staring at her with a flushed face causing her to smirk. The smirk faltered when there was a knock on the apartment door. "Who is that" the woman growled out as she walked out of the bedroom. Y/N rushed after her and stood in front of the woman. "Probably just my neighbor" Y/N whispered out and the woman clenched her jaw. "You better not tell them I'm here or I'll kill you got it" the woman whispered back and Y/N nodded her head. Y/N opened the door as the woman hid behind it. "What's up Philip" Y/N said and the man looked at her. "Are you alright I heard a crash" he said and Y/N chuckled before rubbing the back of her neck. "Uh yeah I'm fine I just fell off my couch is all" Y/N said making Philip frown before narrowing his eyes. "Are you sure" he asked and the woman tightened her grip around her knife. "Yeah I'm sure, don't worry" Y/N said before saying goodbye and shutting the door. She locked it and looked over to see the woman already looking at her. "See nothing to worry about" Y/N muttered out and the woman loosened her grip on the knife.

Y/N watched as the woman walked over to the kitchen and looked around. She grabbed the bottle of scotch and looked at Y/N questioningly. "Aren't you a little young to have alcohol" the woman said and Y/N looked away. "Uh... No" Y/N said and the woman laughed. "You're not good at lying" the woman said as she turned to look at Y/N. "How old do you think I am" Y/N said and the woman smirked before taking a sip of her scotch. "18" the woman said and Y/N's eyes widened in shock. "How did you know" Y/N stuttered out and the woman walked up to her. "Lucky guess" the woman said before brushing past Y/N. "Can I know your name" Y/N said as she turned around to look at the woman sitting on the couch. "It's Maria Hill and don't go trying to tell anyone that no one will believe you" the woman said as she downed the rest of the scotch in her glass. "Why won't they" Y/N questioned and Maria leaned back before smiling. "Because they just won't sugar" Maria said before chuckling.

"Well then can at least patch up your hands" Y/N said as she walked over to Maria. Maria looked down to see her knuckles all bruised and her hands all bloody. "Can I trust you" Maria said and Y/N nodded after a couple seconds. Y/N walked off and came back a couple seconds later with the first aid kit. She sat down beside Maria and watched her stiffen up. Maria watched as Y/N began cleaning up her hands and patching them up. She felt her heart pick up a bit as she looked away quickly.
