Love is Death

Part 21: Budapest

Me and Natasha are walking into a building that her sister is in

We got into an elevator when we got out the elevator Natasha crouched down to a vent and pulled out a gun

I had my shield in my hand

We went over to a door and she started to pick the lock

I know you're out there. We heard from inside the room

I know you know I'm out here. Natasha said and grabbed her gun and opened the door

We both went inside and closed the door behind us

Then why are you skulking about like it's a minefield? The girl said

Cause I don't know if I can trust you. Natasha said and looked at me telling me to stay here for a second

After a while I heard fighting

I ran into the room they were in and saw a blonde and Natasha fighting I dropped my shield and I ran over and pulled them apart

Then the blonde tried to hit me but I caught her hand and pushed her back a little

Stop. I said and she ran at me

I picked up and slammed her back on the ground

Are you done? I asked

Asshole. She said and got up

Can you two please not fight. I said

Fine. Natasha said

Thank you. I said and went into the kitchen and grabbed my shield

You had to come to Budapest, didn't you? Natasha asked

I came here because I thought you wouldn't. But since you're here, what kind of bullet does that? The girl asked and I looked at the wall and saw arrow holes in the wall

Not bullets. Arrows. Natasha said

Ah, right. She said

If you didn't think I'd come here, why'd you send me this? Natasha asked and showed her the picture and vials

You brought it back here? The girl asked and walked out the kitchen and we followed her

I'm not here trying to be your friend, but you need to tell me what that is. Natasha said

It's a synthetic gas. The counteragent to chemical subjugation. The gas immunized the brain's neuropathways from external manipulation. The girl said

Wait, really? I asked and the girl nodded

Maybe in English next time? Natasha asked

Then the girl said what it meant in Russian

Why don't you take it to one of your super scientist friends? They can explain it to you. Tony Stark, maybe? The girl said

Oh, yeah. We're not really talking right now, so...

So he never calls to check on his son? The girl asked

He doesn't see me as his son anymore since I killed over 100 people in a year. I said

Great. Perfect timing. Where's an avenger when you need one? The girl asked

I don't wanna be here. We're on the run. You could've gotten us killed. Natasha said

Well, what was I supposed to do? You're the only superhero person that I know. She said and Natasha took off her shirt and I saw all her bruises

That was the whole reason I sent it to you. I kept checking the news, expecting to see captain America bringing down the red room. The girl said and left the room
