To be honest, it was quite easy. They managed to get in, steal the wings (apparently, the project was called Falcon), and get out without being caught. The alarms didn't even go off. Of course, that was thanks to Nat, who hacked into the system and turned them off, and Nina, who leaded their mission. Again, she was very good with time and no one doubted her abilities.

They also managed to get some weapons out of this mission. Nina got herself a sniper, Nat some pistols and knives. Steve said he didn't need anything, and Sam already had his bird suit.

Their next mission was to capture agent Sitwell, and get as much information from his as possible. For once, Nina thought it was best if Cap lead them, because she would be on top of a building aiming a sniper, and she couldn't risk getting distracting and missing her target.

Sam was supposed to talk to Sitwell, make him go up the building Nina, Nat and Steve were on. If he couldn't persuade him, Nina was just going to aim her sniper at him.

"Because that tie looks really expensive, and I'd hate to mess it up," Sam said. Nina took her cue and aimed the man's tie right on time for him to look down and freeze in fear of getting shot. Nina smirked from behind her sniper.

In a few minutes, Jasper Sitwell was out of the elevator and was being tossed across the rooftop of the building by Steve. Nat and Nina followed him closely.

"Tell me about Zola's algorithm," Steve ordered.

"Never heard about it," Sitwell lied through his teeth as he wiped the blood running down his nose from Steve's blow. 

"What were you doing at the Lemurian Star?" Steve tried again.

"I was throwing up, I get seasick."

Steve lost his patience and took Sitwell by the collar of his shirt and forced him to the edge of the rooftop. Sitwell just smiled. Nina felt her face going hot.

"Is this little display meant to insinuate that you're gonna throw me off the roof? Because it's really not your style, Rogers." Nina could feel the rage building in her.

"You're right," Steve said, with a smile of his own. "It's hers."

Nat was about to charge towards Sitwell, when Nina held her shoulder.

"Do you mind?" She asked with a smile. Except this wasn't just a normal smile. This was the smile that had always sent shiver through Natasha's body. It was the smile Nina had on her face when anyone questioned her or her skills in the Red Room.

"Be my guest," Nat said, stepping aside with a smirk.

Nina ran to the edge of the roof and with only one kick, she pushed Jasper Sitwell off the rooftop. She had to admit, it had a quite relieving sensation to it. The man fell from the building screaming his lungs off.

"Oh, what about that girl from accounting?" Nat said. "...Laura?"

"Lillian," Nina corrected.

"Lip piercing, right?" Steve asked. Nat nodded. "Yeah, I'm not ready for that."
