** Rose's Pov ( 1st January) **
I woke up in a hard concrete floor, the pain was still there, I tried to get up but it just notified the guard "oh good the little girly is awake" he said and walked over to me picking me up by my hair. I stood trying to loosen the grip and saw I was in a small cell with no sign of Pepper "your stupid father came to try and rescue you, he got the pretty blonde woman but we kept you away" he said and the threw me across the room, I heard a loud snapping sound and there was a sudden eruption of pain in my arm, probably broken. He kicked me in the ribs a few times and kept on kicking and punching me I felt like my whole body was on fire, happy birthday to me, my present is a beating, I soon fell into another deep sleep.
** Natasha's Pov **
Pepper was home, in shock but home, neither Clint or Tony have stopped looking for Rose, they've had no sleep. We had all of S.H.I.E.L.D's technology looking for her, there was no sign, after we got Pepper they must of moved Rose, she is no where to be seen.
*******
It had been a whole week since we got Pepper back, Rose had been in there grasp the whole time, it was now her birthday, we had planned everything, a surprise party and a brilliant present, I went into the lab where Tony was, his eyes were red and bloodshot with bags underneath, he sat on a stool playing with some armour, tinkering as he says. This is all he did for the next month.
** (One Month Later) **
I was still in this hell hole it had been a whole month and dad or Clint hadnt come for me, maybe I wasnt worth it, a guard came in, the same time every day, he walked up to me and began my daily torture, I could barely feel the pain anymore, I was numb all over. After about thirty minutes he left and another guard came in with a small plate of food and a glass of water.
I crawled over to it unable to walk as my ankle was badly bruised, and struggling to crawl due to my arm, I took a big bite of the bread savouring the taste and nibbled at the cheese, once I had devoured the small amount of bread and cheese, I sipped the water untill it was all gone. The guard came back in and took the plate away leaving me on my own, I kept on hearing voices hoping they were my dads or Clint's, I would even be happy to see Fury at this moment in time, that's how bad it is.
About three hours later I was woken from my sleep, it was a women about thirty years old. She was nelt beside me on the cold hard ground, "I've come to check on your health" she said to me in a kind tone, she stitched me up the best she could with the small amount of equipment, and she handed me a tablet pack and underneath a key "take these in an hour, don't be late in taking them, there won't be another opportunity" she told me referring to the key, in code so the guards wouldn't hear.
I waited an hour and stood up, I went to the door and shoved the key in the keyhole, I turned it and the door opened, I looked outside and no one was there. I walked down the corridor and found a sign at the end of the corridor saying EXIT in big bold letters, I went out of the door and saw the light, felt the wind on my face, I began to run, no matter how much pain I was in. I got onto a main road and the passing car stopped and opened the door.
I was free at last "take me to Tony Stark please, you will be greatly rewarded" I told her before falling asleep, waiting to see my family.
