When do I get to kill Captain America?

What? You weren't subtle with the username, I'm not going to be subtle when I deal with you. This is business; this is my purpose. This is what I was made for and now is more or less the time. Don't plan on having me in your head for long. Once this is over with, I'm out. I've got a lot to do. I'm supposed to be helping remake the world, not playing games with you on memes or whatever it is you think we'll be doing.

Besides, My Little Pony is on in a few minutes. You know how I love the Canterlot Wedding two-parter, and it's almost the weekend. I want to sleep in like a normal person for once.

Go find my superiors while I watch. I need someone to debrief me.

Statistically speaking, you'd have better odds of winning the lottery every week for the rest of your life. [No need to explain why - even people like Zemo, the Red Skull, and Baron Strucker hadn't even come close to killing Cap.]

Why did you sign up for HYDRA, anyway? [Couldn't hurt to find out; at the very least, it might help him convince low-level HYDRA minions to give up that way of life.]

[hailing_hydra]

Good. That means it's not impossible, which means there's still a chance. So long as there's even that slim of an opening, there's an opening.

Born into it. They needed someone like me, so they created me. And I need them. The world needs them.

It's nothing personal. Cap is in the way. That's all there is to it.

[science_is_fun]

That's -- You're missing the point. HYDRA's been building itself up for decades, sure, but all of that time and resources weren't enough to stop Cap. Beings who were believed to be gods weren't enough. The man is a living legend for a reason.

All right, enlighten me. Why do you need them? Why does the world? [Not off to a great start - people born into this sort of thing tended to be the most fanatical, in his experience - but he's still holding out hope.]

[hailing_hydra]

We have the same DNA. Same serum. Let's see how he does on a level playing field with someone who isn't going in underestimating him. Giving up is a surefire way to defeat regardless. If I don't try, then I have to live my life wondering.

People don't understand that HYDRA can provide security and stability for the world. Look at what's going on in the places that superheroes just so happen to not frequent, the places that aren't worth saving - usually, people with brown people if we're just going to be honest about it. People suffering because the systems in power are corrupt and broken and put the powerful in more power while shoving the common person into a life of uncertainty and pain. I grew up in privilege. I know what it is to live in luxury while throughout the world, people die in droves. People HYDRA could save.

We have a plan. A system. A new way to do things. A ray of light for the people thrown into the dark. We may have looked bad once, but by now any reasonable person can see we're the lesser 'evil', if you believe in that kind of thing. If Captain America hands me a detailed plan on how he's going to change America's corruption and all the horrible things happening as a consequence of things done by the American government, I will lay down my sword, shake his hand and head back to Iceland.

Somehow, I doubt he'll have that plan on hand. Or even in his head.

[She's too busy watching My Little Pony for a few minutes to notice the glare. She laughs at Twilight Sparkle's indignant shriek and Rarity fainting, looking for a bit like the 14 year old she actually is, and only glances up when the theme song starts at the older woman.]

...what?

[irredeemed_ant]

I'm gonna have to agree with Pymie Boy, you're nuts if you and your goose steppers think you can take down Captain America, lady.

[hailing_hydra]

I have a name, you know. It's Magnvarr. And if not taking this seriously is really the default, hey, works for me.

[irredeemed_ant]

That's... not an easy name to pronounce, but alright. So when you say that is that your actual name or the super villain title they gave you to sound scary?

Hey normally I think Hank's kind of overated and over opinionated but I'm pretty sure we can agree HYDRA sucks. So what can you do?

[therightagent]

A little young to make your life's goal assassinating Captain America, aren't you?

[hailing_hydra]

I'm Icelandic. I think it's kind of a result of a fight between my mom wanting a Magnna and my dad wanting a Vari and them realizing they could combine the names. It's not the hardest Icelandic name out there, actually. Google it. I... come to think of it, I'm not sure I have a code name? I'm sure I did, at least at the start. Maybe it's on the paperwork in my dad's office. I'd have to check.

I can kick ass, take names and drink chocolate milk.

[hailing_hydra]

Oh, no. It's fine. I've been trained. I'm really good with swords! Don't worry.

[therightagent]

[...Swords. Seriously? Swords?] So what, you woke up on your thirteenth birthday and decided you wanted Captain America's head instead of a pony?

[irredeemed_ant]

Ah, so there's a reason then. For what it worth it's not the worst name in the word. And unique. If you did it'll be something suitably menacing like HYDRA Girl or the like.

...I like chocolate milk. Also I'm Ant Man. Well, the other one. Well the other other one.

[hailing_hydra]

I've been training for this since I was little. It's why I was born, after all. This is what's supposed to happen.

And I have tons of My Little Pony stuff. I have a custom pony plushie! I got for my last birthday, actually.

[therightagent]

Yeah? And what do you plan to do if you succeed?

[hailing_hydra]

It translates out to 'mighty vigilance'. Which, well, what that even means, I don't know, but when you throw names in a blender that kinda happens. I feel like I should get a rank, though. Something to show for all the hours training.

Chocolate milk trumps coffee, every time. Ant Man, huh? Kinda gives away what you can do, but hey, it's not Icelandic, so. Kudos.

[hailing_hydra]

Oh, HYDRA has a really detailed plan on how to continue from there. My part of the plan is over after that until I get older. I still need more training and study before I can assume any power. I'm still all... newbie and stuff.

[irredeemed_ant]

So being enduring, I guess. I suppose after a bit the logical code names start to run out because they're taken. I thought HYDRA was just the masses of expendable cut off your head types and the loonies with the red skin and the monacles and the green hair in charge. Not exactly room for ranks there.

Curses, now I'm gonna want one for the rest of the day, HYDRA Girl. Maybe it does, but it doesn't mean I can't kick your butt. No offence. Well possibly a little offence since you working with the bad guys...

[hailing_hydra]

Still weird, but hey - I know a guy whose name translates out to eyelashes, so it could've been worse. And of course we have ranks. Don't be silly - how would anything stay organized if we were all just mooks? [She grins a little, and it might be unsettling, how young she can seem when she acts her age.] We're not the Royal Guard from My Little Pony. We have names and everything.

Hey. My parents are not the bad guys. You just don't understand things. You've never really talked to anybody in HYDRA, so maybe you should try to back it off a bit.

[science_is_fun]

So a clone of some sort? Even if the super soldier serum was transferred through birth, any kids or grandchildren of Cap would be as hard for HYDRA to deal with as he is - they wouldn't get ther hands on you if that was the case.

I have enough experience with HYDRA to know that saving people isn't one of their priorities, miss. They're out to exterminate or subjugate anyone who isn't themselves. A lot about the human race needs to change, that's for sure, but cooperation is a much better alternative than conquest. The current system you're talking about, the world would be like that but worse under HYDRA's rule.

Besides, there's no place that isn't worth saving - imagine all of the good that HYDRA could do if they took the resources and funds that they dedicated to conquering the world and used them to improve the quality of life in impoverished nations. Doesn't that seem like a better method of improving the situation?

[irredeemed_ant]

[That makes him grin. It's kind of sad where she is because she seems like a nice kid.] Eyelashes, seriously. Damn that poor sucker. Well it's nice to know the mass terrorism is all organised and stuff. And of course you have names. Jack the Ripper had a name. Adolf used to have a different surname when he was a kid. Useful facts there. Wait, you watch My Little Pony?

Yeah well some friends of your beloved parents shot down my best friend in cold blood and if I hadn't gotten out of the Triskeleon when I had, I'd have joined him. So I think I understand things just fine.

[hailing_hydra]

Well, obviously. Does he really seem like a guy who'd have a kid and ditch it? Please.

Conquering is how things get improved. By ripping out whole governments entirely, people will finally be able to live united, under one system. There will be no more war, no more in-fighting, just HYDRA. No more suffering. We can see the strings controlling the system and we can cut them. The world wouldn't be worse, it would be equal. That's what the world is afraid of - a world where the military is competent, it's a viable means of mass employment, and nobody gets to trample over other people because of money. We're only going to exterminate people who would rot the new system from within. There's always losses.

[hailing_hydra]

Um, anything that falls under the word 'mass' has to be organized. Or it would last maybe a week. Seriously, think about how much work it takes to organize a class of kids. You really thought a bunch of adults could function without that? And of course I watch My Little Pony! The dub is kinda bad but I know English so I just watch the original English online. Pinkie Pie is best pony. Although Cadence is awesome! I love her premiere episode, she's amazing. I got a custom plushie of her for my last birthday! With her dress from the episode and everything.

It happens. People die every day from all kinds of groups a lot worse than us. Once superheroes stop the drug cartels in Mexico, or, y'know, even try to, give me a call. Maybe we'll look bad then.

[irredeemed_ant]

I dunno, it's a bit surreal that you're a Brony or whatever they call it and working for a crazy Nazi terrorist cell thing. So you guys have staff meetings about stuff then? I imagine they're just as boring sometimes. Pinkie Pie is... the crazy one, right?

Maybe but it's still my best friend dead from HYDRA, which by the way is one of the worst. I know there's AIM but they're just you lot with scientists dressed like bee keepers and flying talking heads. You know there's only so many SHIELD agents and super heroes in the world right? We can't be everywhere.
