Kate waited outside the heli-carrier on the runway. Maria had given Kate one of her old S.H.I.E.L.D. uniforms, and she looked like the spitting image of her mother. She was checking her pistol, making sure that it was loaded and ready.

Jackson walks up to her. He was wearing a simple black, uniform (like what the tributes had in the hunger games.). His rifle was slung over his shoulder and a backpack

Kate slid her gun in her holster. "Ready?"

"Mhm. Yeah." He sighs, walking onto one of the carriers

She followed him. "You know, if we're going to be partners for this, we should probably get to know each other a little better. Strategically speaking," she added quickly.

Jackson raises a brow at her, "uh. Right."

"So… what are you good at?" she asked, sitting down to pilot the jet.

Jackson stands behind her, holding onto the ceiling handle things (like in buses)

"What are you good at?" she repeated, beginning to lift the agile jet into the air.

"Uh… sniper? That's really it." He shrugs, "You?"

"Pistols. Guns. Up close combat fighting. I can hack things. I'm a pilot… That's the major areas," she replied, focusing intently on liftoff. Once they were safely in the air and had their target destination selected, she would relax.

"Pff." Jackson looks around, "Well you can't be good at everything."

"No," she replied, letting out a long sigh as she safely flew out of the helicarrier's range. "But I can try." She remembered her mom's last words to her as she left their quarters.
"Remember, Kate," she'd said. "You are not disposable. You are strong. Prove yourself to Nick. Prove yourself to everyone. I love you."

"Your mom seems coo. I've heard a lot about her " he nods to himself

"What've you heard?" she asked, checking another pistol. She knew some people at S.H.I.E.L.D. who spread some nasty rumors about her mother once.

"Well. Uh. To say it bluntly she us a badass. And… She survived the snap. After… " He falls silent at the thought, "Or. Came back from it."

Kate pressed her lips together. Maria didn't talk much about what happened during the snap, and Kate didn't pressure her into conversations about it either. "Right. Well you got the first thing right," she said, pride dripping from her words.

"I know." Jackson laughs

Kate pressed her lips into a grin and decided to join in as well. "Heard some things about your dad too," she commented nonchalantly.

"That he is a sarcastic asshole? Yeah. " He laughs

"Well, that I guess. From what I heard, he's a S.H.I.E.L.D. agent that saved Natasha Romanoff's life and fought bravely with the Avengers at every turn," she replied, looking at him levelly.

"Almost every." Jackson rolls his eyes. He never thought his father as a hero. It really didnt occur to him.

Kate tilted her head. "Almost every?"

"Nothing. Nevermind." He turns around and sits on one of the folding seats that are located on the edge of the craft.

Kate watched him for a second, then headed back to the cockpit.
