Dates and Depression

Warnings: 18+readersonly, mentions of smut/sex, angst

Copyright: I do not own any Marvel characters or locations. However, I do own my OCs, which consist of Penny Fury, Elizabeth Nelson, Elijah Chan, Katya Venice, Violetta Moscow, Lan Le, Josh, Trang Tien, Ahni Jallow, Mai Ito, and Ghaida Kashual as well as other OCs that will come up throughout the story.

Penny's date with Steve, Bucky, and Sam was not the only date that she ended up going on in the short time between the spy being found and Christmas. 

Steve, Bucky, and Sam took her to a gorgeous café restaurant. They stayed for almost two hours, before going through a strip mall that was putting up early Christmas decorations. Then they came home and went to bed together in hot, steamy sex. 

Natasha had been next to ask her on a date, but a few days before the actual date, she went into labor. It was a difficult one and Penny and Vision were very worried about her. They were also the only ones who were allowed to stay by her side. 

Natasha's body was not meant to be having children and it was only doing so because of magic. They ended up giving her a c-section, which meant a long time for recovery so they pushed the date backwards. 

Natasha and Visions' little girl was absolutely adorable. She had Natasha's flaming red hair, but had Visions eyes. Well, his human form eyes at the very least. She was named Anastasia Yelena Romanoff. 

Then Rhodey, who made good on his promise on giving her a wonderful date. They went to the movies which was doing old reruns and they watched The Wizard of Oz in the theaters. It was packed full of people who wanted to see the movie in the theaters for the first time. Since it was a cheap movie, they simply sold tickets and people sat in the aisles or on the stairs, anywhere there was space. 

The chairs were comfy though and Rhodey sat down, before pulling her in his lap and they cuddled the entire time. It was a movie experience that Penny had never been in before. People singing along to songs and cheering and yelling. 

Rhodey took her a restaurant afterwards where they just got dessert to split and share, cuddled up together on one side of the booth. Rhodey was even cheesy enough to feed her off of his spoon, but she loved it. Especially when she got to tease him, licking his finger as she did so and he turned red under his dark cheeks. 

When they got home, they went up to his room and spent the night together with almost no sleep, but a lot of satisfaction regardless. 

Loki took her up to Asgard for his one-on-one date. They strolled through the open markets while the normal citizens looked at Loki in awe and Penny in curiosity. Loki watched Penny and whatever she squealed over as beautiful or cute, he would either buy or sometimes haggle for. 

Penny would have scolded him for haggling, but realized that he haggled in normal things from Midgard, like Tony's tools, or Midgardian books. 

Loki explained as they walked, eating some sort of Asgardian dessert made of fruit and icing in a cone. "The people of Asgard long for things from Midgard. Odin may have lifted his rule of being in relationships with soulmates from Midgard and other realms, but there are still things that Midgardians have made that aren't allowed on Asgard." 

"Won't they get in trouble then?" Penny asked anxiously, looking over at two little girls that Loki had given barbie dolls to. They looked so happy to have them as well, running off with them into their house. 

"No." Loki said. "Odin is aware that we are visiting the markets. He will know that the Midgardian things came from us. Heimdall will also make sure that none of them suffer or are punished." 

With that comfort, Penny was able to relax more and even haggled some of her own possessions, which was actually quite fun. 

They did go back up to the castle for dinner, where she was able to see Fandral, Hogun, Volstagg, and Sif again and the six of them ate together and talked. 

"Heimdall is miserable." Fandral complained. "He needs a good fuck." 

Hogun chuckled but Sif rolled her eyes. 

"Yes, well, let him be a dumbass." Loki replied dryly. 

Fandral gasped in mock shock. "My word. The prince has used foul language!" 

Penny started to giggle while Loki glared daggers at Fandral. 

"Fair lady, come away from the uncouth man." Fandral declared and Penny giggled harder. Sif even cracked a smile while both Volstagg and Hogun laughed loudly. 

"I hope you don't value your hands Fandral." Loki said in a bored tone. "You're very close to losing them." 

Despite the bantering, that was the date where Penny ended up in Fandrals' room on Asgard in an orgy with the rest of them, Loki orchestrating most of what everyone did. It was definitely a turn on, watching all of these mighty warriors listen and follow Lokis' orders. Especially when it was for giving her pleasure. 

She had a variety of other dates with Tony and Stephen, then Violetta, then Clint and Bruce did a double date with her and Natasha, the four of them together as a square date. Pietro did one and then Wanda and Vision together. 

Elijah took her on a date after he was sure that Elizabeth was stable on her feet. The ice superhero had taken to being very secluded afterwards. Penny didn't blame her in the slightest, nor did she blame Elijah for putting all of his focus on her. 

She also became a little surprised when repeat people came back for dates and soon she was going on dates three or four times a week. 

She realized soon that a lot of their time had been sex and worrying about the spies and keeping each other safe. Now that the spy and the enemy was dead, there was time for relaxation and there was time for things like this. Going out without an entire crowd. Private dates, small things. Really getting to know each other. 

She definitely felt much more prepared as they started going into the Christmas season and they had to start looking for presents for each other. They went to the same mall that they had gone the first round. 

Penny found her presents much quicker this year, including presents for Bucky and Steve through what she had learned about them during the dates. 

They slowly started to regroup after an hour or two. She saw that Violetta and Katya were in line for Auntie Annes. Natasha and Wanda were just coming out of Dillards', a baby carrier in Natasha's hands with the cover pulled down so her baby was protected from sight. She refused to let the child out of her sight, no matter what. 

Penny herself had Chamber with her, mostly because it was his first Christmas and she wanted to show the mall around to him, even if he wouldn't remember it in years to come. 

She found Elizabeth in another shop, with a few presents, but definitely not enough for everyone. She looked overwhelmed and Penny immediately felt guilty for leaving her by herself. 

"Hey, you doing okay?" 

"Yeah. I wrote a list, I just don't know what stores hold which items." Elizabeth said, fingers fumbling as she pulled out a neatly written down list. She had crossed off for people she had the presents for. Penny also couldn't help but notice that Steve and Bucky's spaces were empty. 

"What do you get Steve and Bucky?" Elizabeth asked desperately. 

Penny found the irony humorous. Last year she was standing here asking Elizabeth what to get Steve and Bucky. Now the circumstances had been flipped. 

"Well, you usually get them something from their time period. Like last year you got them records- which are like song discs. You could probably ask Viden if there's anything in particular they're hoping for though." Penny offered. 

"Mm, maybe." Elizabeth said hesitantly and they moved on through the stores. 

Clint and Bucky took Penny out on another date for the Christmas holiday. It was bitterly cold, but Bucky was warm and they were inside most of the time anyways. 

It was turning to be one of the best years of her life. 

🏧🚪 𝐏ｏV ς𝓱άＮ𝕘𝕖 💥 🔥

Elizabeth's depression had hit an all time low. She had been feeling off ever since Steve had left her room and she knew that she still had the babies. The problem was, there was a little baby that was teetering on the edge of death. 

She had secretly seen a doctor about it with Katya, because Katya was the one that could keep all of her secrets from anyone, including Elijah. The doctor said she needed to eat plenty of food, keep her fluids up, and not do any strenuous activity, including sex, until cleared by her. 

Well, the last part was easy. She hadn't even seen anyone in the past four days besides Katya. She was keeping solely to her room except early mornings when no one was awake, to cook breakfast, or when F.R.I.D.A.Y. gave her the all clear and she would go and see her kids. 

She wasn't sure why she had sunk so low into depression. It was a state of feeling like she was constantly on the edge of crying or feeling nothing at all. Days passed easily, mostly because she just slept through all of them. 

She felt isolated from the others. She wasn't sure if she blamed it on Penny or the spy. But it felt like ever since the spy and her mother had been killed, that the others sort've stopped rallying around her. They had put all of their attention towards Penny and she suddenly felt like. . . like. . . like she had been loved on just because she needed protection. Now that the threat was gone, they didn't need to protect her anymore. 

Even Elijah hadn't been around. He had taken Penny out on three dates so far though. Elizabeth wondered when the last time he took her on a date was. 

But then again, she had always figured ever since she learned about this sort've thing, that it was just sex. The love was one sided. Go figure. 

At the same time, she had also purposely stayed away from them to stop herself from giving in to sex, so really, the isolation was her fault. But the isolation was still giving her anxiety and making her doubt. Even if the doubts were because she was keeping them away and not necessarily because they wanted to stay away. But she also felt that they were staying away, because they hadn't tried to see why she'd locked them out, and it was a whole complex cycle of psychological feelings and emotions. 

She did start having morning sickness, which was super fun. It also worried her and she went to another meeting with the doctor. The baby was a little more stable, but not by much and Elizabeth's blood pressure needed to come down, but she didn't have a way of not stressing. 

She tried reading, which would sometimes work. Sometimes she could lose herself in a good book. Until she would hit the romance part and everything just sort've seemed to crumble again. 

She started to research other things. Specifically about Cryo. If it would freeze the babies growing as well so that they could find a safe way to save her baby without her risking its' life. But there wasn't sufficient information on it to begin with. 

She didn't know what she was going to do. 

🍿👆 ᵖᗝ𝓥 Č𝒽卂𝓝ģＥ 🖕🍩

Penny laughed with the others at the stupidity of the movie. Well, except Katya who seemed to be in a bad mood. She had a notebook in her lap and was making marks in it, looking frustrated. Clint had picked up on her mood and was trying to look at the book, but every time he looked over, she snapped it closed. 

"Mr. Stark, Director Fury is here." F.R.I.D.A.Y. announced. 

"Uh huh." Tony said uncaringly, his head in Pennys' lap. Penny was stroking his hair while relaxing against Pietro. 

It was only two minutes later when her father came striding into the Community room, "Where's Elizabeth?" 

"Hi Dad, nice to see you too." Penny joked, earning laughs from the others around her- except Katya. 

Fury rolled his eye. "Elizabeth hasn't answered my text and I sent it four hours ago. I just-" 

Katya started to laugh. Except it was more bitter than that. "God, Fury, I love you." 

Everyone looked at her. 

"Four hours and you come check on her. Meanwhile, the last time anyone here has seen her was five days ago." Katya continued to smirk, standing up and grabbing the notebook she's been writing in. "Considering that, you might actually be able to get to see her." 

Fury raised an eyebrow and looked at the rest of them, who looked rather frozen in their seats all of a sudden. 

"Really?" Fury asked. "You're telling me that she's gone through a third traumatic experience and they still haven't learned from the first two in thinking she doesn't need any help?" 

"She doesn't need help." Katya replied scathingly. "In fact, she just thinks she was right about the whole thing, in thinking she was just this damsel in distress and now that the threats gone, she's not needed anymore." 

"That's not-" Bucky started but Katya turned on him. 

"You haven't even seen her in nine days James so just don't." 

 "Hey." Clint said, sounding hurt. "I saw her today and yesterday and the day before. I've been checking on her every day but recently she's always been asleep so I haven't gotten to talk to her." 

"How have you even been seeing her?" Katya grilled. "She coded F.R.I.D.A.Y. so only those with a certain password can even get in." 

"The vents." Clint said softly. 

"F.R.I.D.A.Y.-" Tony started but Katya bit into him next. 

"No." Katya snapped. "You don't get to override Elizabeth's command on F.R.I.D.A.Y. now. You can't just force yourself into her life after being out of it for sixteen days Anthony. None of you do. Except maybe Clint at this point." She turned back to Fury. "I'll go up with you. You'll need me for the password." 

Her and Fury left. Elijah was the next to leave, just jumping out the window and taking to the skies. Trang slipped out of the room next, slamming the door behind her to go to the lab. Violetta and Ghaida left next and Penny noticed Loki was suddenly gone as well. 

"Can you feel her?" Steve asked Wanda. 

"Yes." Wanda said softly. "She's. . . sort've just numb. She's stressed about something as well." 

"I'm going down to the gym." Bucky grunted, heading for the elevators. Natasha and Steve got up and joined him. 

And the rest of them just sat there in guilty silence as the movie continued to play on the screen.

[critter-of-habit]

When I watched the new What If episode with Peggy & Nat I immediately thought of you, your art, and what your reaction would be. Especially since it was kind of a retelling of Captain America & The Winter Soldier.

What are your thoughts on the episode?

Seeing as you asked, I WILL TELL YOU MY MANY THOUGHTS. WITH PICTURES.

under the cut for length lol

First of all, as usual the animation, particularly the lighting, was incredible. Also the effects! The explosions, smoke, everything. Always blows me away how much effort and love these animators put in to What If.

I love that it's Winter Soldier based because by god do I love that movie - but I also love that it's so very different to my AU cos that means I can keep going with it lol.

Okay here we go with the highlights - Blatant flirting and showing off:

This???:

Just how in sync they were with every fight scene - even in the Battle of New York when they had only known each other for a few hours.

HEY LOVELY. LOVELY:

Angst. And how soft Nat is here:

"Hey, Peg. I got you."

Natasha's inability to sit in a chair properly:

Peggy making a star wars reference and Nat calling her out on it like .. Nat you RECOGNIZED the reference you're a nerd too

"You know I always wondered how you got all those GI Boys to follow a woman into war: question answered." ie. "I'm so into you right now":

This Natasha stabbed Dreykov to death with a corkscrew and I love her for it.

Natasha instinctively putting herself in between Peggy and Steve even though they're both twice her size

I've already mentioned but, the choice to focus on Natasha's face in this scene:

Nat's face here:

Natasha only getting taken down by the robots because her gay-Peggy-focused-ass gets distracted when Peggy runs off to protect Steve: (I'll come back to this point later as a negative)

MELINA.

Was anyone else looking to see if Yelena was there

"Let's unpack that later, shall we?"

"I don't know whether to kiss you, kill you, or dissect you." "Let me guess, all three?"

I bet the Captain Carter film was baby Nat's gay awakening lol:

Melina's glorious slo-mo "grandma, it's me, anastasia" coat drop:

Peggy running to save Nat T_T

These shots:

Nat wearing the same outfit from Winter Soldier:

Natasha "too-loyal-and-infatuated-for-her-own-good" Romanoff going along with Peggy again to look for Steve without even being asked. (in stark contrast to the end of Winter Soldier when Natasha did not go with Steve to look for Bucky, I might add)

New reaction image:

Peggy and Nat calling and reaching out to each other when the portal opens and ALMOST making it - then Natasha punching the ground in desperation T_T

These two look SO COOL and I can't wait for the 1602 episode.

Negative points:

Rehashing Ste/ggy all over again - we already HAD that and it was endgame, why do it again?

As much as I adore Natasha's intense loyalty, it's very one sided in this episode and I'm wondering if that's intentional. Peggy is hyperfocused on Steve and leaves Nat behind to run after him multiple times, even though he is in an entire suit of armor and is FINE and Natasha is the one actually getting injured. Then she's leaving at the end without saying goodbye to go find Steve again (despite there being no reason to think he's alive? he EXPLODED??) even though Natasha just went through a trauma too and shouldn't be abandoned. Kinda feels like Peggy is taking Natasha's always being there for granted and I really hope it's addressed in following episodes (though I doubt it will be - it'll just be Steve focused again -_- )

Okay I think I'm done. This was a LOT I'm not sorry I've been waiting for more content for SO LONG I can't wait for the rest of the episodes to rip my heart out and stomp on it :3

Series masterlist

“What’s so wrong about her being homeschooled?” Natasha calmy walks around the bedroom grabbing he clothes; she was supposed to be at work an hour ago, but you had other plans that delayed those obligations.

“She needs to be around more kids her age Natasha.” You respond back to her as you sit up in bed with the silk sheets wrapped snug against your body.

“I was barely around kids my age and it turned out just fine and so will she.”

“Why are you so against her going to school?” As your question lingered in the air you had a hunch on the why, but you weren't entirely sure to bring it up yet.

“I’m not against her going to school, I’m against the failure of the education system.” Natasha reveals herself from the walk-in closet, clothes loosely fitted to her body.

“She’s six, the most she’ll be doing is going over basic skills, coloring and eating glitter.” You giggle as Natasha shows distain with your comments.

“That’s another problem, if we homeschool her, she can get advance lessons.” Her expression is unwavering, she's being serious and wasn't in the mood for joking not when it came to Anastasia's education. she had a tough childhood and had the unnerving realization that she could be shipped off to boarding school in a flash if she disobeyed Alexei past his limits. She ended up disobeying him anyway but luckily, she didn't end up in a boarding school she was lucky he went easy on her and settled for making her go to an alternative school.

“Anastasia really wants to go, and she deserves that chance to be around kids and not cooped up in this house.” You wrap your arms around Natasha’s middle leaning your head in her shoulder. "It's safer for her to be home." She responds back to you with a scowl forming on her face. it was a weak excuse out of all the good points she's made during this morning discussion. First it was about the weak education system, now it was about her safety. Which you understood; however, you didn't think anyone could be stupid enough to think about bringing harm to your daughter.

“We both went to school despite the dangers of our family's lifestyle, she’ll be fine Tash.” She doesn't take the chance to reply back to you this time, no doubt fighting in her own mind. "Listen, I know you're scared about her growing up but, she's growing up."

"I'm- I'm not scared about her growing up, who said that?" it was partially a lie, Natasha loved coming home some days and hearing her daughter's feet rush to the door to greet her and annoy her about what she did that day. on the bright side that meant having more free time with you while Anastasia was way at school but then she thought of the dread of attending parental events and school functions. knowing she wouldn't be able to make every single one and knowing she really wasn't interested in going to any of them.

"Oh, you're fucked, and this is just the start of first grade I can't imagine what you'll do when it's time for her to go to high school or away to college." Natasha takes a moment to think it over, zoning out while fixing her dress shirt.

"Fine." She turns around in your hold as you peck her lips in surprise and appreciation., truth of the matter was that Natasha was having a hard time knowing how fast her daughter has grown up despite the fact that she's always telling Anastasia "To be a big girl" or "Big girls don't do this or that." she was just being a protective mother. Natasha wouldn't be Natasha if she didn't have something up her sleeve after losing an argument or giving in to a discussion like this. "But I pick the school." your face falters as hers grows a knowing smug smirk. "Woah, wait that wasn't part of the deal, Nat." She mutters the words "It is now" Before playfully nipping at your bottom lip and turning towards the doorway. “Anastasia!” Natasha yells for the five-year-old from the middle of the bedroom. It doesn’t take long for the small child to run past the threshold of the bedroom door. “Yes, mama?”

“Is this true what mommy is saying about you wanting to go to school?” She nods her head yes. Natasha audibly sighs in frustration before she calms herself down. “Are you sure? no one bribed you with sweets, money or gifts to say this to me?” Natasha not so subtly looks over to you as you roll your eyes at her childish antics. Anastasia nods her head again. “I’m sure.” Natasha releases a breath and kneels down to Anastasia's level. "Well, I guess we need to go school shopping, hm?" Anastasia gasps with excitement and rams into Natasha for a warm embrace.

Anastasia has been in school for about a month now, even though you and Nat went back and forth about picking the right school. She settled on enrolling Anastasia in one of the top schools in the country the only downside about it was the fact that they made six-year-olds wear uniform. regardless of that Anastasia, she loves it. She can't stop her little motor mouth when it's time to pick her up and she always remembers to make something for her family during arts and crafts time. Now you await in the school hallway for parent teacher conference day. You sit next to Natasha in the cushioned seats along the stoned wall both of you deep into your own cellular devices at the moment to talk to one another. You practically had to hold a knife to Natasha's throat just to get her here today. The sound of heels clicking on the floor is what gets you to pull your eyes away from the screen. "Miss Romanoff, Mrs. Romanoff." The woman stands Infront of you with a smile as she greets you.

"It's just y/l/n actually, we're not married." You correct the teacher ignoring how annoyed Natasha is by bringing the topic up. She says her apologies and ushers you both into her classroom. Natasha walks close to you and lowers her voice for only you to hear. " Was that really necessary?" You're amused by her being upset about you correcting the teacher about your marital status. "Was it necessary for you to cheat on me?" You quip back at her with no anger but with a blank but smug expression as you sit down in the wooden chair by the desk. Natasha glares at you for a brief moment until the teacher comes back into the room. "Alright, let's get started, shall we?" She smiles so bubbly and happily it makes you smile softly, and Natasha wants this conference over with even faster. Just tell her that her daughter is smart and perfect so she can get on with her busy day that she had to take time out of to attend this meeting in the first place.

"Anastasia is doing exceptionally well." That alone brought a bubbly feeling to Natasha on the inside so much so that she was in the process of standing up and blurting out her words. "Great this was a nice conference teach." You grab her arm and yank her down into her chair. "Oh, um that's not all." Natasha raises a brow at her and ignores the fact that you just practically manhandled her in front of Anastasia's teacher, she let you have it later. You both could tell she was hesitant on saying whatever it was that was on her mind. You sit forward no longer pressed against the back of the chair and with straightened posture.

"What? is there something wrong?" Natasha hears the concern and panic in your voice and snaps her gaze from you to the nervous woman across from her. "If she is doing well then what else could you possibly need to tell us about?"

"I'm sorry I didn't mean to scare you both its just..." The more she pauses and beats around the bush the more your mind grows rapid with thoughts. "Spit it the fuck out already!" You snap at her which surprises Natasha nonetheless she brings her hand to your back and runs it up and down your back in a soothing motion. "Sorry, about that it might be that time of the month, continue." Natasha sends her apology to the teacher; she didn't need gossip going around town that you two were a bunch of ticking time bombs no matter how true that really is. "She's doing well academically however her socially skills are in a bit of extra need and care."

"What are you talking about? she communicates just fine trust me, maybe she's just not warmed up to the idea of others her age yet."

"She does indeed communicate just fine, it's the fact that she has a hard time expressing her emotions in a healthy way if you can understand what I'm trying to say."

"There was an incident last month the principle said he called, and he spoke with someone about Anastasia and another student here." You and Natasha both look at each other dumbfounded you haven't spoken to the principle about Anastasia and neither has she. "We haven't spoken to anyone about an issue."

"Oh, well I guess he assumed it was you Natasha because of an accent but the person on the phone also said that they'd inform their wife about the situation." You both look at each other with knowing glances. You don't have an accent and Natasha is barely home to even answer a phone that's not in her pocket or in her home office. and know it was Yelena that answered the phone call, Natasha is definitely taking that key back from her. Miss Noelle doesn't ask for an explanation she continues when it's clear neither one of you are going to speak. "Based on my observation as well as other staff members here, we think Anastasia might have a behavioral issue. We aren't sure on which specific kind of disorder, so we think you should take her to see a behavioral therapist." You don't respond to her analysis you're too stuck in your mind with the many possibilities of what this could mean. You tried so hard to not have your daughter fall susceptible to the history of trauma you and Natasha both experienced within this lifestyle. You were really protective and kept a close eye on Anastasia in fear that she'd pick up Natasha's habits. It looks like that fear is coming in full circle. When it's clear you aren't going to respond or react, Natasha once again steps into the conversation.

"That won't be necessary our daughter is fine, now if there isn't anything else you need to discuss with us about Anastasia then we'll be leaving." Natasha says this with confidence as she stands from her chair, but a small part of her knows how combative Anastasia can be sometimes when it comes to discipline, and she finds that shocking considering you and Nastasha practice gentle parenting. Well, Natasha slips up a few times, but she always fixes her mistakes whether if she's alone or if you're there to put her back on the path to healthy parenting. everything after that is a blur you don't recall even leaving the school let alone being seated in the back of the car. Natasha gently nudges you out of your dazed state. "Hey, don't stress about it too much. If there is something going on with Anastasia, we will do everything we can-."

"What? Are you saying it's something wrong with her too?" You scoff and push her comfort away from you. you didn't want the comfort and someone selling you sweet dreams. You wanted the blunt and honest truth contrary to your response to Miss Noelle. Would you be raising a potential psychopath? An enraged child that grows up to become something you fight so hard to shield her from. "I'm not saying that buttercup. I'm just saying if there is something hindering her way of expressing emotions then we'll worry about from there, alright?" She hooks her finger under your chin and turns your face back to her soft but assertive gaze. "Only if we see it with our own eyes that she needs extra care in the department. I don't want to sign our daughter up for things just because teachers say we should, kids have tough times dealing with emotions they're kids for fuck sakes. I'm not signing her up for unnecessary therapy, Tash." She pulls you closer and wrapping her arms around you in a firm grip.

"Only if we actually see her display that behavior that her teachers talked about then we'll take her to behavioral therapy." When Natasha agrees with you there's a brief pause as you watch her, this being the very few times when she's the one comforting you and telling you to be the logical one. "Fine." You agree but you're still pouty and annoyed about this whole conversation. Natasha only smiles and kisses your lips multiple times and a quick manner before you arrive in your driveway. Was it a way to lighten the mood before greeting your daughter? Yes, but she also just wanted to kiss you since the moment you almost went ballistic on the teacher. She doesn't care how turned on she gets when you're mad, Clint lets her know about her weird kinks every chance he gets.

All thoughts of anger and frustration went out the window the moment you step inside the house and hear the small clicking sound of plastic heels. Anastasia was having a tea party with Yelena and Fanny. Everyone dressed for the occasion of a princess tea party with tiaras and of course dresses with princess ruffles, she wouldn't have it any other way. As you scoop Anastasia up in your arms and Natasha heads for her office while practically snatching her sisters arm off in the process, no doubt she's going to berate her for even answering the phone call from Anastasia's school.

She'd be getting an earful from you later but right now you just wanted to show extra love and care towards your daughter. As she tells you about her day while you were gone, as she plasters small wet kisses to your face and giggles with laughter when you bring out the tickle monster. You can't help but think that the teachers were wrong, and you completely have nothing to worry about. That call will never happen and the day of you and your family sitting in a therapist's office will never come. Everything was fine and most importantly your child was fine.

Main Masterlist

---⧗---

Natasha was always given to job to train the new recruits. Not that she even wanted to do it but she never complained it was a chance for her to show off to complete strangers. Something that she enjoyed a lot.

You were the youngest of all the recruits at the age of 17. You grew up in a secret Russian organisation that trained young girls into deadly assassins. You somehow successfully managed to escape well almost successfully.

A couple of SHEILD agents were sent to kill you but when they saw how young you were they made you a deal. They recruited you to become a SHEILD agent. Given how well the first widow from the Red Room turned out they had high hopes for you.

During the first few days of you being there, you got compared to the other widow Natasha Romanoff and told that you were alike her all the time. You never figured out why.

That was until you came face to face with her and you saw some of the similarities between you both but it was probably just a coincidence. You both had the same hair colour, same eye colour, the same height and maybe you look slightly like her. Apart from that, you didn't see why everyone was always comparing you both.

During the training, Natasha was impressed by all that you could do. She knew by your training style and how you always followed instructions without a complaint that you were trained in the Red Room originally.

While all the other agents spoke to one another you didn't even mutter one word. All the agents thought you were shy and scared but Natasha knew the truth.

She knew that if anyone spoke without being spoken to first, complained or refused they would get beat up and it wasn't just a few punches it was a beating till near death.

After training once all the other agents left Natasha kept you behind the have a one of one conversation with you.

Before she could start the training room door slightly opened and footsteps could be heard coming closer.

"Mama?" A young voice said.

Natasha turned around and a young girl came running over to her. She leaned down slightly and opened her arms for the child to run into.

"There's my girl." Natasha lifted up the girl and kissed her cheek.

Natasha turned back around and you saw that the young girl has the same hair and eye colour as both you and Natasha. In fact, she was the spitting image of you when you were younger.

"Hi." The young girl waved at you.

"Hi." You slightly smiled back at her.

"Baby this is Y/N. Why don't you tell her your name?" Natasha asked.

"My name is Anastasia Yelena Romanoff." The young girl spoke with so much confidence you knew that she definitely got it from her mother. "But you can call me Anna if you like I don't mind."

"It's nice to meet you, Anna."

"Do you want to play hide and seek with me Y/N?" Anna asked.

"Is that okay Agent Romanoff?"

Natasha nodded. "Yes, it's okay." She put Anna down.

"You count and I'll hide," Anna said excitedly then she ran towards the door.

"I must warn you I'm the best hider ever." She shouted then she left the room.

Natasha was surprised by her daughter's reaction. "She must really like you she never bonds with someone that quickly."

"What were you wanting to speak to me about Agent Romanoff?" You asked worryingly.

"It doesn't matter anymore. Now go find Anna. I'm giving you permission to go anywhere in the tower and if anyone says anything to you tell them to come to talk to me." Natasha said.

You nodded. "Thank you, Agent Romanoff."

"You don't have to call me Agent Romanoff you can call me Natasha." She smiled at you.

"Thank you, Natasha." You gave her a slight smile then you left to go find Anna.

---⧗---

Over the next few months, you started bonding more and more with Anna and Natasha. Anna loved having you around. You always ate meals with them and joined in with their games and movie nights.

You even started to develop a strong need to protect the young girl much like how an older sibling would with their younger one.

Natasha saw how protective you became of Anna and Natasha began to wonder that maybe you had a sibling that you couldn't protect that's why you're so desperately trying to protect Anna.

Natasha went to Bruce to ask him if he could do something, any way to find help find your family

"I can only do that if she asked me to Natasha," Bruce said taking off his glasses and dropping them on the table.

"If she has no living relatives then we won't say anything about this but if she does we will tell her. Just imagine the look on her face when she finds out she has family out there somewhere."

"Fine but I wasn't a part of this if she finds out." Bruce sighs.

"Thank you, Bruce," Natasha said then she left to go find you and Anna.

---⧗---

It took Bruce a few days to get the results back and when he read what they said he was shocked.

He quickly alerted Natasha to come to the labs and she was there within less than a minute.

When Natasha entered the lab Bruce pulled out a chair for her "You might want to sit down for this Natasha."

Natasha walked over and sat down on the chair. "What's going, Bruce?" She asked worriedly.

"I've got Y\N's DNA test results back."

"What does it say?" Natasha asked.

"Take a look for yourself." He handed her the papers.

She read over them not once or twice but three times and then a fourth and even a fifth just to be sure that she was reading it correctly.

"You're her mother Natasha her biological mother."

For what was probably the first time ever Natasha was completely speechless.

Was it possible for this stranger to be her child? She was told that she had been sterilised when she was in the Red Room but if that was true then she wouldn't have had Anna so maybe they were lying

"They must have wiped your memories that's the only logical explanation as to why you can't remember being pregnant with her," Bruce said.

"I think they did it's been nearly 18 years since I escaped and how old is Y/N?" Natasha asked.

Bruce looked at the paper for your date of birth "nearly 18."

Natasha wanted more than anything to be happy but she was worried to tell you she didn't want you to see her as the woman who abandoned you when you were a helpless, innocent little baby.

"It's your choice if you tell her about the results or not Natasha."

"It's only right to tell her." Natasha gathered all the papers and went to find you.

She found you in Anna's bedroom and you both were sitting at her little desk drawing. Natasha couldn't help but smile when she saw you both.

She kneeled down beside Anna "What are you drawing baby?"

"My family look there's mama and Anna and Y/N. She's my big sister now mama."

"It's a wonderful drawing baby. When you're finished mama will put it up on your wall."

"Thank you, mama." Anna smiled and then carried on drawing.

"Anna I just need to speak with Y/N for a few minutes alone okay so please stay here."

"Yes, mama," Anna said not looking up.

When Natasha stood up you did too and you followed her to her office.

"It's okay you're not in trouble you haven't done anything wrong," Natasha said trying to calm your nerves as she could feel the nervousness coming off you.

She sat down on her chair and you stood beside the one next to her.

"You can sit down." She said then you awkwardly sat down.

Natasha didn’t say anything she just slid the papers over to you.

“What’s this?” You asked her before picking up the papers.

“See for yourself.”

You picked up the papers and as you read them you shook your head. “No, it’s not true.” You stood up and ran out of her office and Natasha followed you.

“Y/N please just stop and listen to me,” Natasha shouted as she chased after you.

You didn’t stop but she was a lot quicker than you and she grabbed your arm forcing you to stop.“Y/N just listen to me for one minute.”

“I don’t want to listen to anything you have to say, Natasha.” You shouted pulling your arm out of her grip. “You abandoned me.”

“I didn’t abandon you they wiped my memory when you were born causing me to forget your birth,” Natasha said calmly.

“I don’t believe me you didn’t want me so you just left me there alone while you escaped.” You looked down at the floor.

Natasha put her finger under your chin and lifted your head so you were now looking at her. “I would have never left you there if I knew I promise.”

You didn’t say anything you just nodded.

“I’m so sorry they did that to you, honey.” She wrapped her arms around you tightly. “No one will ever take you away again I won’t let them.”

You wanted more than anything to believe her but you didn’t know if you could fully trust her or not.

Little Red

Written for Blackhill Bingo 'Red Room' While Natasha is taking down the Red room, she finds a child.

warnings: implied child abuse, mentions death

Natasha snapped her nose into place and looked at all the files of the girls that were downloading and realized she had failed. She failed Yelena, Antonia, the girls, but most importantly she failed herself. She thought she managed to get rid of the evil that tortured her and many like her, instead he hid further in the shadows and became even more ruthless and she doesn’t think she could forgive herself for that. 

She didn’t have time to dwell on her thoughts because just as she grabbed the flash drive, she heard the sound of a child crying. Natasha, ever the cautious one, took her gun out and crept toward the source of the sound. She opened the door and saw a small mop of red hair. Nat quickly put her gun in its holsters and walked toward her.

“Hi little one.” Natasha greeted in a soft voice. The child raised their head and Nat was able to see it was a little girl with the brightest blue eyes. She was dirty from the debris that was currently falling, and was only wearing pajamas. She can’t be any older than 3 . Nat thought to herself, frowning.

“Do you understand me?” Natasha asked. The girl nodded. Natasha sighed in relief that the girl spoke English, she didn’t have time to guess which language she spoke. “The building isn't safe anymore, you need to come with me so you can be safe.” Nat continued.

The girl shook her head rapidly. “I can't leave, the scary man will hurt me.” The girl whimpered out. 

“The bad man isn’t going to hurt anyone anymore, I'm going to make sure of that. But right now we have to go, so I can get you somewhere safe.” Natasha promised. She failed all the other girls, but she wouldn’t fail her too. The smaller redhead seemed to think for a moment, before nodding. She held her arms out, signaling she wanted to be held. Natasha picked up carefully, in case she had any injuries. 

“Okay, I'm going to put you inside my suit so you don’t get hurt. Keep your head on my shoulder and hold on tight.” The girl just nodded and Nat took that as a sign to unzip her suit enough so that she could put the girl inside her suit which should protect her well enough. 

Nat started running out of room, picking up more antidote as she left before dodging an elevator of fire. She shot the glass and jumped out the window to escape, latching on to railing and going into the next window. She tried her hardest to dodge the rubble falling left and right but it ultimately knocked her down and made her fall through the floor. She cradled the girl's head and landed on her side so the little one wouldn't be directly impacted.

She heard a bang and looked up to see Antonia locked in the glass cage. That monster left his own daughter for dead. “Antonia,” Natasha started, panting. “I’m gonna open the door. You’re gonna come after me. I know you’re still in there and I’m not leaving you.” She pleaded before opening the door with the passcode. 

Antonia made a move to grab her, but the floor exploded, throwing them in opposite directions. She protected the girl attached to herself as much as she could, but that could only do so much. Definitely having Melina check her over after this. Nat thought.

She dropped down onto the other platform just in time to see her sister about to do some stupid. “Yelena!” She screamed in horror, she just got her back, she can’t lose her again. “Don’t do it!”

“This was fun!” Yelena called back. Natasha watched as her sister killed Dreykov while also free falling. She jumped into action grabbing a parachute and jumping after her. Natasha somehow managed to strap Yelena and the little one to the parachute before spotting Antonia and releasing them to catch her. She was going to fix this.

After a grueling fight with Antonia, who she had managed to get the antidote to and apologize properly, she went to find Yelena and the tinier redhead. 

She saw the blonde laid out on her back, the child still strapped to her chest, passed out. “Yelena?” Nat asked cautiously. She was relieved when hazel eyes met hers. 

“We’re both upside down.” Natasha couldn’t help but smile at her words. 

“Forgive me little sister.” Natasha's voice quivered as she spoke in Russian. “I should’ve come back for you.” She switched to English.

“You don’t have to say that.” Yelena shook her head. She had already accepted that it wasn’t real to Natasha. 

“No. No. It was real to me too.” Natasha nodded to emphasize her words. They brought their foreheads together to touch, something that brought both of them comfort, before hugging. The hug startled the little one and she whined being squished between them but quickly fell back asleep.

“Uh, Natasha, who is this?” Yelena inquired. 

Natasha smiled sheepishly. “I actually don’t know her name. I found her locked in his office and I couldn’t leave her there. I think I’m going to take her with me.” 

“But Natasha, you’re on the run, and can’t talk to other Avengers. Where will you go?” Yelena questioned.

“I’m going to take her somewhere she’ll be loved and safe, the same place I’m loved and safe.” Nat replied. “You should come visit me one day.” she suggested after a beat.

“Really?” Yelena didn’t think Natasha would offer her an opportunity to go to her safe place. 

“Yeah, I know you’re going to help with the widow’s but call me and I’ll happily take you with me.” Natasha shared.

“I guess if you’re keeping the child that means she’s my niece and I must teach her everything I know.” They were interrupted by the girl in question waking up. She was looking around confused and a little startled but calmed down when Natasha spoke to her.

“Hi again, little one. Did you have a nice nap?” She asked. The little one nodded. “Can you tell me your name?” 

“Anastasia.” the girl said. 

“That’s a pretty name. My name is Natasha and this is Yelena.” She replied, motioning between them. Anastasia raised her arms to Natasha, she wanted to be picked up again.

“Okay, let’s get you out of this parachute first.” She told her before untangling her from Yelena. Ana quickly nuzzled into Natasha's shoulder.

“Anastasia, do you know where your mommy or daddy is?” Natasha asked gently. Her and Yelena started to walk to find Melina, Alexei and the widows.

“The scary man said Mommy go bye bye.” Ana told her.

“Okay, we’ll see if we can find out something.” 

After tricking Ross and sneaking her way back to the helicopter the widows, Melina, Alexei, and Anastasia were on, they were on their way to Melina’s farm.

“Do any of you know who she is?” She addressed the girls as a whole. The widows were silent for a while.

“Her mother’s name was Irina. Dreykov had her punished for giving birth to Ana after a mission, but let Irina keep her. Whenever she failed, he would punish Anastasia to make Irina do better but one day he killed Irina and locked Anastasia away. We could hear her cries but none of us could help her. We don’t know anything about her father.” The widow, Katrina, answered. 

“We tried to help and protect her as best as we could. We snuck her food and cleaned her wounds but we could only do so much before he found out and punished us.” Another widow, Naomi, explained. 

“It’s okay, you did your best. And she’s going to be okay, I’ll make sure she grows up happy and healthy.” Natasha consoled them. She was definitely keeping Anastasia now. The girls were still young, they didn’t need to take care of a child, they were still children themselves.

“Where are you going to take her?” Katrina asked. Ana was important to all of them, they wanted to know if she’ll be okay.

“I'm going to take her home with me, she’ll be safe there. After Yelena helps you guys get situated, she’s going to come visit and if she doesn’t think Anastasia is safe there, I’ll let her bring her back to you. Is that okay?” Natasha decided. She was being honest too. 

“That’s okay with us.” Naomi spoke for the girls as a whole.

After a few more hours, a check up from Melina, and a phone call to Mason, Natasha and Anastasia were on the way to Natasha’s house with some new clothes and other stuff for Anastasia. Mason was confused about why he needed to get kid stuff but Natasha told him not to ask any questions.

Nat was excited, she was finally seeing Maria for the first time in weeks. She really missed her wife and with her past coming back to haunt her, she could really use a hug. She missed Fury too, she didn’t know if he was home though, he’s been on and off world for a while. She landed a few feet away from the house, knowing Maria and Nick would need to see her walking up so they wouldn’t deem her a threat. Nat grabbed Ana and the things Mason brought and. together the two of them walked to the door which was opened by none other than Maria.

“Hi Ria.” Nat greeted her wife. 

“Don’t ‘Hi Ria’ me. You haven’t made contact in almost 2 months, I was worried sick. And why do you have a child?” Questions flew from her wife’s mouth. 

“Look, I know I have some explaining to do but can you let us in. Ana’s hungry and I need to give her a bath.” Nat asked, walking past Maria into the kitchen to make a peanut butter sandwich for Ana. Melina had done an allergy test and Ana wasn’t allergic to anything, so it was safe to eat. 

“Where did your mini me come from?” Maria asked exasperated.

“The red room.” Natasha said walking over to where she had sat Ana in a chair. “Here you go sweetie. Try this and tell me if you want something else or if you want some more.” she told her nicely. 

“What? I thought you took it down during your defection.” Maria voiced. Natasha just shook her. 

“No, Mia, I didn't. In fact, I made Dreykov hide even further in the shadows. If it hadn’t been for Yelena sending me a message, I never would’ve known.” Natasha explained sadly. She still couldn’t believe she’d been the reason those girls endured a lifetime of trauma.

Maria pulled her into a hug and Natasha sighed, content to be in her wife’s arms again. Maria kissed her forehead before pulling away “We’ll talk later. Now, is mini you named Ana or is it short for something?”

“Her name is Anastasia Irina, she's three. Dreykov eliminated her mom and we have no information on her dad. We always said we wanted kids and well…now we can have one.” 

Maria sighed. She knew from the moment Natasha walked in, she wasn’t going to let the girl go without a fight and Maria had to admit the girl was very adorable. She’s a mini Natasha, Maria thought to herself. She sighed, she could never deny her wife anything. “After we do a little paperwork, we can officially call her ours. Also, I really think she liked that peanut butter sandwich cause it’s all over her face.” Maria shifted her attention to the little girl sitting at the dining room table. She grabbed a cloth off the counter and wet it with some warm water. 

“Hi, Anastasia, I’m Maria, can I wipe your face and hands so you can be clean again?” She cooed softly. Ana put a finger on her chin and tilted her head, thinking. Maria held back a laugh at the girl's antics. 

“Yes Ria, you can clean Ana’s face.” she eventually said. Maria took the cloth and began cleaning peanut butter off of her, tickling her stomach as she did, making Anastasia laugh. 

Natasha watched with a big smile on her face, Maria was gonna be a great mom. They had always wanted kids but they could never find the right time to settle down, now they wouldn’t have to. 

“Little one, it’s time for a bath, we need to get you out of those clothes.” Natasha said joining her wife’s side.

Anastasia’s eyes went wide with fear. She started rapidly shaking her head no. “No, Ana was good. I don’t want a bath, I’ll be good.” she spit out tearfully.

“Hey, it’s okay. You are being good, you’re not in trouble, the bath is just going to help you get clean, nothing else. We won’t even fill it up all the way.” Natasha explained gently. 

“You not gonna put Ana’s head under?” the little girl asked scared.

“No, honey you don’t have to put your head under. We just need to make sure you get clean?” Maria assured

“You get in too?” Ana asked Nat.

“Yeah, honey, I’ll get in too.” Natasha wasn’t planning on a bath, but if Anastasia would feel better, she’d be all for it. 

“Ok, Ana take bath with Natty.” She held her arms out to Maria, surprising both women because she seemed more comfortable with Natasha, but Maria picked her up regardless. After a short bath and a bedtime story, Anastasia was asleep in Natasha’s arms, Maria and Nat asleep with her and that’s how Fury found them. Cuddled with Ana between them and “If You Give A Mouse A Cookie” open. He took a picture before sending it to Carol and Maria Rambeau.

“They’ve brought home little red, can’t wait to hear this story.”

All You Need to Know About Matchups!

CLICK HERE TO VIEW THE WAITLIST

Hi y'all!

This account is solely for matchups for several different fandoms. That means requests for imagines, oneshots, headcanons, etc. will NOT be taken.

Here are some basic things to know about requesting a matchup!

Unless otherwise specified for a certain fandom, a request yields one romantic pairing AND one friendship pairing as well as information on why I think you work well with the individuals I choose. Of course, if you only wish to receive either just the romantic matchup or just the friendship matchup, just let me know!

You can request matchups for several different fandoms at once! For each fandom you request, I will match you up with one romantic partner and one friend unless you request differently.

You can ask to exclude any character(s)!

Where can I request a matchup?

Requests can be made in the MATCHUP REQUESTS/ASK ME ANYTHING tab.

What do I need to include in my request?

Required

Fandom(s)

Your gender and/or pronouns

Your sexual orientation and/or preferences

Description of personality

Optional (but definitely helps me out!)

Description of appearance

Hobbies

Personality alignment (Myers-Briggs, Enneagram, Hogwarts House, etc.)

What you would look for in a partner and/or friend

Any other information you think would be helpful – the more you provide, the more I can work with!

Now with that out of the way, onto the fandoms!

Listed directly below is a shortlist of all the fandoms I take requests for as well as some extra information as needed.

Disclaimers

If a title is in italics, it means that while I feel comfortable providing matchups for this show, I have not watched every season. If a character drastically changes after a certain point, I may not be aware. The last season I watched of these shows will be included in parentheses.

All movies/shows based on novels will most likely focus on the on-screen adaptations of characters.

Devil’s Backbone

Devil’s Backbone

Chapter 2

AN: I hope everyone is enjoying the story so, far and here is chapter 2 :)

Story Rating: Explicit, 18+

Warnings: Smut, violence, flashbacks of past sexual assault, descriptions of torture and racial hate. Tony is not a good guy from chapter 2.

Relationships: Bucky/OC, Steve/Natasha, Billy/Wanda/Grant, Sam/Sharon, Clint/Laura and Yelena/Frank Castle/Karen Page.

Summary: In the aftermath of the Blip, Bucky struggled to find his place among the world and the Avengers. However, when he is sent on a mission to Madripoor to investigate a mysterious woman, he starts to realize maybe his past isn’t too far behind. Co-Written with WalkingPotterGirl14.

Bucky felt stunned at what he was seeing as he saw the young woman break into Natasha's room. She came out freshly showered and wearing Natasha's clothes. He couldn't see her face, as she had back turned to the cameras before walking down the hallway and going into Wanda's bedroom. She came out a few minutes later, with nothing but plenty of bottles of Wanda's shampoo and conditioner. Wanda looked stunned by what she was seeing, watching as she walked further down the hallway. The woman then broke into Yelena's bedroom. She was in there far longer than she had been in Wanda's room, and sooner or later the woman left with a suitcase, before the security camera went fuzzy. "We don't have any security footage of her face, as she kept her back to the cameras. She knew where she was going…but why did she go into Wanda, Yelena and Natasha's bedrooms?" Billy asked wearily. They didn't even know who she was. "Natasha and Yelena believe that someone escaped the HYDRA base in Belarus and hid on the quinjet. I want Romanoff, Russo, Belova, and Stark to check the HYDRA base again to see if we missed something," Fury instructed sternly. Everyone nodded and left to do what the director had instructed. "Where do you want the rest of us, sir?" Steve asked gravely. He knew this was serious. Whoever this woman was, she'd been able to remain undetected by F.R.I.D.A.Y. "I want you, Barnes, Barton, Maximoff, Ward, and Wilson to search the nearby streets for any sign of this woman. Whoever she is, she might be a threat to us," Fury said gravely, and everyone nodded in understanding.

The flight to Madripoor was eight hours. Ana passed the time by catching up with the world events that had occurred when she had been placed in cyro by her handlers. The WHIH news was reporting on a terrorist group called the Flag Smashers being sent to an underwater prison called the Raft, along with their sympathizers. The group had blown up a GRC Supply Depot in Riga, Latvia, killing seventy-nine people and injuring plenty of civilians. Five of the victims had families, with one having just started the job, and was a father of two. She shook her head in disgust. Ana was no saint in any way. She had blood on her hands, but she never deliberately tried to kill civilians during her missions. The faces of the people she had killed in the name of HYDRA or the Red Room cut her deeply. She had never wanted this life when she had lived at the orphanage. All she had dreamed about was of becoming a ballet dancer, like her mother before she had passed away. "Ladies and gentlemen, we are about to land at Madripoor airport. There will be slight turbulence due to strong winds," the voice of the pilot announced gravely. Everyone fastened their seat-belts, and Ana avoided looking out of the window. She loved the sea, but she had a terrible fear of drowning after one of the girls in the Red Room nearly drowned her at the swimming pool. The plane landed gracefully with people gradually leaving. Ana allowed a couple to leave first before she went to exit. She went into the airport, as she walked to the luggage hold area, and grabbed her suitcase, heading out as quickly as possible. Her next stop was going to High Town and getting settled in. She needed to find information on all these players, including on Peggy Carter's niece who was still living in Madripoor, despite being pardoned by the US government. She put on her dark tinted sunglasses, before going to the garage and found a black Suzuki Ignis in the car park. She smiled slightly before picking up the keys, and saw the car had black tinted windows. She hoped the windows were bulletproof, but she decided not to tempt fate. At least, not yet.

Bucky was in the living room with Steve, Sam, Wanda, Grant, and Clint, reading through the documents about the Black Widow Ops program. It felt like a dead end, until he saw a name on the list of girls in the program. 'Anastasia Liukin.' "Are we sure that Natasha and Yelena were the only two who survived the Red Room Program? What if someone else survived?" Sam was the one who asked question that all of them had been thinking. An uneasy silence fell upon them. Natasha and Yelena were very secretive about their time in the Red Room. Bucky knew both of them due to having trained them in the Red Room, and his past relationship with Natasha. Not that it was something that either he nor Natasha liked to be reminded or think about. He didn't have happy memories of his time in the Red Room. If anything, it was something that gave him nightmares. He was the bogeyman to the girls in the Red Room. A terrifying man who would harshly discipline them if they failed in any of the lessons. Failure in ballet, languages, gymnastics, or espionage was not tolerated by the superiors in the Red Room. Faintly, he remembered a young woman around sixteen being sent to be trained by him. She had been Yelena's age, but the superiors and other girls hadn't liked the fact that she still remained kind, even refusing to kill other girls in the class. He didn't know what had happened to her, but he knew Melina Vostokoff had worked as a trainer in the academy. He hated the cold bitch, and she didn't like him either and neither did her husband. Hmm…he really did wonder what happened to her. Thinking about her more, all he could remember is her refusal every time they tried to trick her into doing something painful. She was so sweet…The Red Room must have ruined her. They never let anyone out who doesn't obey them. Goddamnit…he wished his memory weren’t so damn fuzzy. "This file really says everything we need to know," Steve states quietly, turning the pages. "Anastasia Liukin…a young girl who grew up in an orphanage after her mother died…enhanced physiology, holy shit…Nat might know something seriously about this girl. Yelena too." Sam takes the folder from him, looking over it quickly. "She was abandoned at an orphanage until she was seven and then they took her away to the Red Room under the guise she would be a ballerina…there they trained her." He lowers the file and looks to Steve. "They have to know something about this…but why would they keep it a secret?" "Maybe she's really dangerous?" Wanda suggests. "It's not like them to keep dangerous threats from us," Clint argues quietly. "There has to be another reason why." "Hold on a minute," Steve mutters, getting up and heading over to where the taping was from earlier, playing it back on the screen. He had the file in one hand and looked back and forth as the video played. "What if the possible person that snuck into here was her?" "But they said-" "Wanda, I don't know if you know this, but Nat and Yelena have plenty of secrets from us," Steve says quietly, turning to her. "If this was another one of their secrets, then I wouldn't be surprised. Maybe the moment we got into the HYDRA base, we activated something, and it woke her up if she was in cyro or something, like Buck was. What if the reason she didn't activate F.R.I.D.A.Y. was because she's a spy like them? A soldier?" Steve looks over at Bucky, who was continuously looking at a picture of the girl from before. His brow furrows. "What's up, Bucky?" "I…I think I saw her." Everyone's eyes turn to him, all their attention focused on his one phrase. God, he hated being the center of their eyes. Steve walks over to where he sat, moving to sit next to him. "What do you mean?"

"I…wanted a quick drink of coffee and something sweet…Alpine was resting and I decided to head down to the coffee shop below my place to grab something and there was this girl who…bought two cookies for herself and a coffee…I didn't have enough money to get my own cookie and she overheard so she came over and gave one of hers to me…I felt like she looked familiar, I…I didn't know if it was her or not, I…" He runs his hands through his hair. "I'm sorry, guys." "Bucky, don't apologize. It has nothing to do with you. Not like we knew any better at the time." He looks down at the file. "However, if it was, we might be able to figure out where she is now. Maybe if we confront Nat and Yelena with this information, we can figure out how to find her." Bucky nods quietly. "Okay…okay, yeah, we can do that."

She had to admit, the Power Broker was hard to get by, but after some scrounging around, Ana was able to set up a meeting with the guy, having to stumble into his overtly large and grand apartment. She had to admit, it was quite the nice place. Part of her wished it were hers. "Ah, I see you've finally arrived," a voice called out to her as she walked into a large living room. She raises her brow to see a man come out who honestly didn't look like much, but she knew the power he had. "The woman of the hour. The escaped Red Room agent. The-" "Cut the crap," she states, crossing her arms against her chest. "Let's get down to business. I have a lot of money and I certainly can't use it in the United States. I want to start up here. What are my options?" The man chuckles and shakes his head. "You are assertive, I'll give you that." He grabs a drink for her, but she dismisses it, taking a seat down. She wasn't dumb enough to accept a drink from a stranger. The man shrugs and turns back around. "Having a tough day, huh?" "It's any other day. I just want to make sure I can afford the place I'm staying at, is all," she states lightly, looking up at him. "And I know that you can be the man to do that." The Power Broker snickers and shakes his head, going to sit opposite from her. "You're sweet to think you can suddenly overwhelm me like that, but if work is what you want, it is what you can get. You're a strong little girl, huh?" She feels her hands turn to fists. She hated when people said that. "I can tell from that face you got. There's years of death in those eyes, huh?" "Are you going to give me a job or not?" She asks through gritted teeth. "Isaiah Bradley," he states simply before grabbing a remote from the couch, pulling up a picture on the TV in front of them. "Do you know of him?" "I've…heard of him," she states slowly. "He was a test subject for the Super-Soldier serum years ago, but they really did really bad shit to him. Have no idea where he is now, though." "Well, I do," the Power Broker states, standing. "Isaiah is currently in Baltimore, Maryland, assumingly trying to hide out the rest of his days. But I don't plan for that to happen." Ana stands, her brow furrowed. "What do you mean?" "You see, Anastasia-" "Ana," she corrects. "Ana," he answers, with a grim smile. "I'm in the business of power. I give people the power that they want for a price. One of those ways I have done it is through the Super Soldier serum…sadly, those bloody Avengers took out one of my main scientists that was recreating the serum for me…but luckily, when one person falls, two others shall take their place. They have all of the info that they need to continue making the serum and bringing me more power than before, but all I need is Isiah." Ana stares at him in horror. "You're going to make more of those serums that killed so many people? That created those Flag-Smashers? There has to be another way-" "There is no other way for power, my dear," the man states, coming over to her. "You want safety? You want to make sure you're in charge of your life? You capture Isiah for me with your skills, and I'll make sure that money you have will never leave your side, and the power you gain will only grow. It's your choice." Ana didn't even know what to say. She knew what the serum did to people. She knew how terrifying it was. There was no way she was going to let someone like him take that again. Let him control people with that. So, she swallows and takes a step back, before grabbing the drink he had offered her earlier. Fuck it. "You can't find anyone else?" She asks slightly, feeling around her belt for a moment. "To do this dirty work?" "I could, but I'm quite positive that having someone from the Red Room do it for me would be the best option, for you and myself." She nods slightly before turning to face him, swallowing the whole drink in one sitting. It was now or never. "You see…I've always been in favour of getting what I want, so yes, in your eyes, this might be your best option for me…but it's not in my head." She lowers the glass to the table. "For me, the best option IS Madripoor…owning the city as you do. Isaiah Bradley has been through hell and back, and I don't intend to bring him forward to endure more of that pain." The man lowers his glass to the table. "Ana, I-" "I'm going to kill you, Power Broker," she states coldly. "You have five seconds to run." He takes off. She counts to five, and then runs quicker, going directly after him.

She chased him through the apartment, catching sight of him trying to run through the back garden once he exited his place. She caught up to him, just as he was heading out, before grabbing him by the back of his jacket, throwing him into the side of a back entrance door. She glared at him in disgust, before dragging him towards her. "I've seen men like you before who don't give a damn about the people they hurt," she said dangerously. The Power Broker started laughing then at her, causing her to stare at him in confusion. "Do you really think I didn't have a contingency plan in place if you refused to capture Isiah, Ana? I sent a black ops team to capture him. I've known where he lives all this time. And if he dies, then I'll just simply use his grandson," he said smugly. Ana saw red in that moment, and promptly knocked him to the point of being unconscious. She pulled out a disposable cell phone, typing in the number and waited impatiently as the phone rang. Finally, after seven rings, the woman answered. "Sharon Carter of Carter Art speaking. How can I help you?" The woman asked pleasantly. Ana decided that she needed to meet with her face to face. But no way in hell, was she giving her real name. She'd use another name. There were a few names that held deep, fond memories for her. "Hello, Miss Carter. This is Olga Omelianchik speaking. I need to speak with you urgently. Is there a place that we can talk?" She asked calmly. Sharon paused on the line. "We'll meet at my place. I'll send a car to pick you up. What's this about?" She asked wearily, causing Ana to smile slightly. The woman wasn't stupid. Then again, the niece of Peggy Carter wouldn't be stupid. "Isaiah Bradley. And send me the address. I'll drive there," Ana answered firmly. Sharon agreed and texted her the address after hanging up. She looked disdainfully at the Power Broker's unconscious body before tying his hands with vibranium handcuffs. She dragged him to the car, throwing his body in the back of the trunk, before starting up the engine and driving away.

Natasha sighed tiredly as they once again began searching the HYDRA base. There was nothing to see until she found a room that had at least ten cyrostasis chambers. One of them looked like it had been recently used, and she noticed footprints on the dust covered floor. Someone had definitely been here recently, but she had no idea who it was. Her mind then wondered to a young girl with light blonde hair, and hazel eyes but her thoughts were interrupted when a voice spoke out. "Anything?" Yelena asked quietly, as she stepped into the room. Natasha shook her head. There wasn't any sign of the mysterious woman but whoever the woman was, she was dangerous. "Nothing aside from an abandoned cyrostasis chamber. I found this file along with a backpack in a safe, but no dice," she answered wearily, showing Yelena the backpack, along with the files. They were all in Russian, which would be translated once they returned to the compound. Sighing, Natasha was relieved when they left the building and made their way to the jet. She couldn't help but feel like she had seen that woman on the security footage before.

Sharon waited wearily for the mysterious young woman to meet with her, and saw a black Suzuki Ignis parking in the driveway. A young blonde-haired young woman came out of the car, wearing a black leather jacket. She looked at her silently. "Sharon Carter?" She asked wearily, Sharon nodded and shook her hand as they walked to the back of the car. Sharon had a feeling that this woman didn't take anyone's bullshit. "That's me…and you are?" she asked cautiously. The young woman smiled slightly at her question. It didn't look like she smiled a lot. Her eyes were hard and guarded. "Ana Liukin…I have a proposition for you that I believe will benefit both of us, and your friends who happen to be the Avengers? I know you helped them when Zemo killed Dr. Nadler," Ana offered. Sharon stared at her in surprise before nodding and the woman opened the boot of her car to the young woman. Sharon was greeted by the sight of the Power Broker, tied up and unconscious in Ana's car. She stared at Ana in a stunned silence, before regaining her composure. "What do you need my help with?" She asked cautiously as Ana admired the cherry blossom trees that were blooming in her garden. "I need you to send a message to the Avengers about Isaiah Washington. The Power Broker sent a black ops team to capture him and his grandson. He wants to recreate the super-soldier serum," she explained quickly to her, Sharon nodded in understanding, and glanced at the Power Broker. "What are you going to do about him?" She questioned curiously, genuinely interested. "I'll deal with him, don't worry…I think it's time that Madripoor had a new leader, one that cleans up the place," Ana answered smoothly, before getting in her car and driving away. Sharon watched her go, impressed but also stunned by what the younger woman was doing.

Sam felt his phone vibrate before turning it on and seeing a text from Sharon. He frowned. Sharon had been working undercover for Fury but hadn't come back after the Flag Smashers and Karli had been sent to the Raft. 'Isaiah Bradley's been compromised. The Power Broker's sent a black ops team to kidnap him and his grandson. Get them out of there, Sam!' "Steve, Bucky, Clint! Wanda! We need to get to Baltimore NOW!" He shouted urgently. "Whoa, whoa, what's going on?" Bucky asks, running over to him as soon as he heard him yelling. "It's Isaiah. The Power Broker sent a team after him – we need to stop them now!" He urges. "Sharon just let me know!" Steve nods, a determined look on his face. "Then let's get going."

They had raced out to the quinjet as soon as possible, getting on as quickly as they could until they raced off to where Baltimore was. Luckily, the city wasn't too far with their mode of transportation, and within a little bit of time, they had arrived, heading straight to where Isiah's house was. As soon as they did, they could see that there were people trying to break in. But that ended almost as quickly as it began, as Steve had used his shield to knock out several of the guys while the rest of them got to work. Bucky took out a couple with his skills, Sam with his gear, Clint with his arrows and Wanda with her powers. It was times like this that Bucky actually remembered that they worked well as a team most of the time. He wished they were given more things to do like this. Show his worth to more people. Once the threat was taken out, they called the police, getting them, all sent to their cars. Bucky had wiped the blood from his face as he takes a seat down, watching as Isiah talked to Steve quietly, thanking him for coming. Even in his age with the serum, Isiah was still old. He wouldn't have been able to take on all those guys at once. "You doing alright?" He hears from above, seeing Wanda take a seat down next to him. "Seems like you're lost up here." She points to her head. Bucky chuckles a bit and shrugs his shoulders. "Just thinking about everything we do…I feel like Fury doesn't…I don't know, trust me enough yet." He looks over at her. "It's always team missions and it's never really with the ones that work together – all of us work well but then I go on missions with Sam, and we get along fine but Tony is there, or Yelena might come…I just wish more people would trust me, but I know nothing is built overnight." Wanda sighs quietly before gesturing to her. "When I first came here, he didn't trust me either. It takes time to gain the man's trust. You did try to kill him once."

Bucky cringes before rubbing the back of his head. "Yeah, you're right about that." At that moment, Clint comes around, his phone in his hands. "Hey, did you ever ask Sharon how she found that out?" "I did but she's being sort of sketchy about it," Sam answers honestly. "She won't tell me. Says there was some deal between her and a girl. Don't know who…but whoever it is, apparently she's taking down the Power Broker." Bucky's brow raises in surprise. "Just like that? She pops up out of nowhere?" "Sometimes that happens. A brand-new enemy comes around and makes the weaker one bite the dust," Clint remarks, sharpening his arrows. "If she is becoming a new Power Broker, we need to keep an eye out then…but if she was like the current one, then why would she warn us?" That was the question everyone was thinking. And no one quite had the answer to it.

As soon as she had dragged the Power Broker out of her car and back into his fancy shmancy apartment, he was practically begging for his life. She had him pinned up to a chair in his kitchen, her knife at his neck. She had told him about how she stopped his plan, how nothing was going to work as he had wanted, and now, he was going to die. He pleaded, screamed, tried to bargain, but in the end, all she wanted was his seat. His place. His power. So, she slits his throat. His blood flies onto her clothes, but she doesn't flinch. It doesn't take long for the life in him to drain out, and she tilts her head, looking at the dead body, all she can think is how aggravating it was going to be cleaning the blood from the floor. She undoes his handcuffs and watches as the body fell. If she had this power…she was surely going to make sure someone else took this damn body away. She was done hiding her sins. "Excuse me?" She calls out to an intercom, which she is met with a surprising "Yes?" She responds "Your little leader is dead. I request you come up and take him before I take you out too." There was silence on the other line for a good couple of seconds before the respond with a "Yes, ma'am." Now THAT sounded good. She took a shower after that, and by the time she had emerged with new clothes, the body was gone, and the blood cleaned. She smiles as she heads into the kitchen, pouring herself a glass of wine from his wine fridge and takes a seat down, glancing outside at the skyline of Madripoor. This whole city would be hers…at a cost. The Power Broker would kill anyone innocent to get what he wants. She drew the line at that…God knows she had done enough of it long ago. Ana sighs as she takes a sip of her wine, remembering her last moments in New York City. Her mind kept going back to the man in the coffee shop she had met not long before her flight. What was it about him? Was it his eyes? His hair? His beard? Why was she spending so much time- She gasps, the drink suddenly dropping from her hand and onto the floor, shattering. A pillar of memories struck her. That man wasn't a stranger. That man was the fucking Winter Soldier. The man that had trained her in the Red Room. "H…holy shit," she whispers, bringing a hand to her mouth in shock. It all made sense now. Why he looked so stressed, why he thought she looked familiar too…he must not have recognized her either. She wondered if he knew now. What a fucking day. She runs her hands through her hair. God…the memories she had with the Winter Soldier.
