Before we made our way to the gym, we showered and changed into more appropriate clothes to train.

On our way, we grabbed some water bottles and towels

"So why do you want to train with me," I asked as I placed some hand wraps

"Well I want to see if the rumors are true," he said as he placed a headband

"What rumors? And why do you wear that? You look older than you already do" I said as I got into position

"That no one can beat you" he made his way to the training mat

"It's not a rumor, no one can beat me" I smiled as I threw a punch in his direction but he ducked it

"Is it?" he repeated the same movement but he failed as I ducked it too

"Seems so"  I threw another punch, this time I aimed to his stomach, but he ducked. Again

"I think that the rumor is false," he said with a big smile

"Is it?" I moved fast and kicked him in the center of the stomach, not hard enough I don't want to kill him from internal bleeding

He instantly fell to the mat and groaned

"Ughhhhh why did you hit me there?" he said while he wrapped his hands around it

"Because I wanted to win" I smiled and offered my hand to help him get up

"So, do you want to try again?" he said as he drank a bunch of water

"Sure why not, I'll win either way," I said as I dried some sweat on my forehead

We both got into position again, he started with a few punches some missed and some didn't

"So what do you think about the tower?"  he asked as I ducked a punch

"I think it is nice, at least I can walk around freely"

"And what do you think about Tony?" he said as he ducked a punch

"Are we playing quiz with Manya?" I said laughing, making it worse for me because he punched me in my shoulder

"Sooooo, you trust Tony?" He said in a shaky but still firm voice

This is getting kind of skeptical in a certain way

"Why are you asking me this?"

We both stopped for a moment to catch our breath, he then threw a bunch of water at me

"What are you doing?" I said as I covered myself with a towel

"Having fun, come on just 5 minutes and we get back to training"

"Fine"

I got up from the bench and opened the water the bottle, the first thing that came to my mind was squeezing it

We threw water at each other for a few minutes till I tripped, we both started laughing while we dried off

"Tony isn't who he says he is," Clint said as he threw me a towel, I caught it and fold it

"What do you mean?" I said as we both got into position again

"He told you he was going to help you if you gave him some kind of information, didn't he?" this time he didn't throw a punch, he waited for my response

"Yea... But I still don understand why would you say that?"

Clint POV

I don't know if she's playing dumb or she really doesn't understand

"Manya he wants to kill you"

"But-"

Shit

Shit

Tony is going to kill me, Fury is going to kill me. Everyone is going to kill me. I need to change the subject fast

"Because you're crazy"

Stupid Clint why would you said that, she's not crazy she's your friend and she needs you right now

Manya POV

Why is he telling me this? Why now?

"Why would you say that Clint?"

"I am not lying, you are"

He doesn't mean it, why would he say that. He has been helping me all this time. He's my friend

His face is not confident anymore, he looks nervous, even scared

"What's wrong?" I asked, I got closer to him but he took a few steps back

"Do you think it's normal that an 18-year-old tries to kill a 17-year-old boy?" he took a few more steps back

"But he's alive," I said in a shaky voice

"You almost kill Steve, not to mention Bucky"

"Clint stop, we're friends" I said

"We're not, you're an assassin"

"Stop!" I pushed him into the wall, a path of blood began to appear as he fell slowly to the ground

Shit

What have I done

"Clint?"

I got down on my knees and grabbed his wrist searching for a pulse

No pulse...

My hand went to his neck, no pulse

Shit

Shit

Shit

A pool of blood began to form around his head, it just kept getting bigger and bigger

"Clint?" my voice began to break and tears started to fall from my eyes

I killed him...

"Manya, what have you done?" a firm voice said behind my back
