S.H.I.E.L.D. Academy

Chapter 10: The Secret

Natasha's POV

As I head to biology I see a familiar head of blonde hair. Shmaptian Ashmerica. Ugh, Nat just ignore him.

Steve's POV

Out of the corner of my eye I see the same redhead from before.

Maybe I'll see her on my way to class.

I look down to check my schedule. My first class is biology. This should be fun.

I reach the room and walk to a random seat. I watch the door waiting for the teacher to show up. Suddenly a girl steps through the door with her long red hair that trails down her back, moving with the force of her strides.

She sits down at the seat next to mine and takes out, what Coulson explained is a cell phone. Just as she starts to look at something on her phone, the teacher walks in and walks to his desk.

He looks over the classroom and immediately says "Miss Romanoff, what do I tell you every time I have walked into this classroom for the past 3 years?"

The redhead girl sitting next to me looks up from her phone and says, "This is a classroom not the dorms, put away your phone or I will call Principal Fury into this room and give you detention. Yeah yeah it's getting a little old Zola, sort of like you." Then she goes back to doing something on her phone.

"Miss Romanoff, you have been in my class for 3 years now. You know I am serious when I say I will call Principal Fury." Mr. Zola says with a glare.

"Yeah I know but I really don't care because nothing will happen." She says with complete disinterest.

"He is the principal of course something will happen." Zola says as if it is obvious.

"Not to me, I guess you didn't go to the meeting last month." The girl who is known as Romanoff says to the Zola with a grin.

"I had a family emergency. Wait how do you know about that meeting." He says with surprise.

"I know because I was there." She says blankly.

"Why would you an assassin be in a faculty meeting for our school." Zola says with outrage.

"First of all, so what I am an assassin. Deal with it, you are a grown ass man in a school full of child spies, hackers, and inventors for a government organization. Second of all I was there because of a big announcement which you would know about if you were there, or just read the email. And finally calling Nick won't work because guess who decided to foster me during my time in your oh so wonderful school."

Her words make everyone in the room stop what they are doing and turn to stare at her as she continues to look towards Mr. Zola with a smug face.

What is so important about her being fostered by Principal Fury? And what exactly is so bad about her that it seems that everyone seems to have an grudge against her.

Whispers start to spread around the classroom as if all of these kids can't believe what they just heard.

"You! You are the girl Fury decided to foster!? He is fostering a Russian spy who has a larger kill count than him! Even killing some of the agents in the agency you now serve!" Now the redhead starts to get angry.

"OK LISTEN HERE ASSHOLE!" ALL CHARGES AGAINST ME WERE DROPPED AS SOON AS I JOINED YOUR STUPID AGENCY AND WHO ARE YOU TO SAY ANYTHING YOU NAZI!" She yelled in pure anger and disgust.

Now that caught my attention. What is going on in this school?

"Miss Romanoff that is enough. Detention for two weeks starting tonight. Now on with our lesson. We will be talking about the hippocampus better known as the memory center of the brain. The hippocampus is located in the..." I zone out as he starts talking.

"Let me guess, it is your first day here huh." I hear from next to me. I turn to my right and see the redhead staring back at me.

"Um yeah it is my first day. Um my name is Steve."

"Yeah I know, Captain." My eyes go wide. "Oh don't worry, I'm not sure the others have figured it out yet. My name is Natasha by the way."

"Oh you are the person who is going to be showing me around."

"And me." I hear from behind me.

"Hi, the name is Tony Stark as in the Tony Stark, although you probably already know that." Wait Stark, is he Howard's son? Then he turns to Natasha "Hey little red. That was quite an argument there. So you're Russian. Well I happen to like foreign girls, want to go out sometime?"

"Nice try Stark. Never gonna happen. Trust me people know your reputation, even in Russia." Natasha says with a look of disinterest.

"You wound me little red. Well anyways, looks like we are a tour group." He leans over his desk and wraps his arms around mine and Natasha's shoulders.

Natasha pinched him in the elbow and he pulls his arms back immediately. She then hands him a folded slip of paper and says, "Nice try Stark but you aren't my type."

"Well a guy can try can't he?" Tony says with a smirk.

"Yeah well don't try it again unless you want to loose a finger." She threatens.

"Wait Stark, as in Howard Stark." Steve asks.

"Yeah. What is it to you." He says getting angrier by the second.

"I was friends with your father. My name is Steve" Steve says.

"Oh great, I heard they had found you but I didn't think you would be at a school. Captain." He says in a mocking tone.

"Ok boys let's stop this before a fight breaks out." Natasha says with boredom dripping from her voice.

The bell rings. We all get up to leave.

"Well boys follow me. Our next class is English.
