The Other Sister [1] [EDITED]

Chapter Three

Edited: 12/3/23

Steve woke up in the tower, his head pounding. Everything that happened came rushing back to him and he sat up, walking into the living room to find everyone sitting around looking grim.

"What happened?" Steve asks immediately and Yelena looks up.

"You were taking too long in the bathroom so I went to check up on you. You were knocked out and the serum was gone from your pocket so I ran out of the cafe and saw Claire staring straight at me. I wasn't able to get her she was too far away already."

"I was washing my hands and she just appeared, pressing a knife to my neck. I pushed her off but she's fast and she's strong. She wrapped her legs around my next dragging me to the ground and suffocated me. Everything after that is black."

"Well we know she's after the vials so nobody stays alone at any time. We need to get her on our side." Natasha states. At that moment a ding from the elevator occurs and out walks Nick Fury.

Everyone's heads turn and he stands, hands clasped behind his back, one eye watching over everything. "This is now an official mission. You are to find Claire and bring her in. Give her the serum and get her onto our side. Her information of the red room is vital to our attempts in trying to bring them down." Everyone nods, Natasha staying silent and gazing off into space.

"Natasha." Yelena asks, snapping her sister out of her trance. Natasha looks up at her sister.

"этого не должно было случиться. он должен быть мертв, а она должна быть с нами, не помогая им." (It wasn't supposed to happen like this. He's supposed to be dead, and she's supposed to be with us not helping them.) Yelena looks at her older sister sadly,

"I know but it did, so now we have to fix it." Fury watched the two sisters before nodding,

"Get working. I have SHIELD agents also on the lookout for her. Apprehend her, and give her the serum." He states before walking out.

After he walks out there's a long silence, nobody moving. It was so quiet a pin could have dropped and you would have heard it clearly. "What if we tricked her?" Tony asks and everyone looks at him. "What if we put three of the vials in one place, with one person, Nat per-say but all of us were there hiding. We could capture her and give her the serum."

"It could work." Melina says, "but she may know that we are trying to trick her. She's smart, widows are trained to the fullest extent."

"Well we'll make sure she doesn't get away." Tony says and Yelena looks up.

"And if she does? She'll get three more vials. She stole all of our information on it, we don't have the means to make more."

"That's where you're wrong." Tony says smirking, "JARVIS pull up file Red." He says and a moment later a screen shot of all of the paperwork and materials pops up and Natasha rolls her eyes.

"And you couldn't have told us sooner?"

"You were busy."

"It doesn't matter anyways," Melina states, "we don't have the chemicals. The only one of the type we need is extremely rare and hard to find."

"Well then this is our plan for now. Lead her into a trap and capture her. Natasha will be the one who has the vials, she'll have to tail her at some point."

Claire changed back into her widow suit after it was finished washing, the suit being more comfortable than any other clothing. It was easier to move around in and more breathable with better hiding places for her weapons.
