The next morning was one of those times where life doesn't feel real. We all sat around the meeting table waiting to leave for the mission. I was terrifies. How many people from my past were going to be there? Is there a chance that I could get caught again? Is Tasha safe?
She refused to stay hear and insisted she came to fight as well

When the quintet bulled up in stealth mode we carefully sneaked out and blasted open the door. There was no turning back now if they didn't already know we were hear they did now.
Inside was dark and quite and there was no one there. The darkly familia smell of old chalk dried blood and surgery wards filled my nosteral invading my senses and knocking me dizzy for a few short breaths.
Tasha was just ahead off me with her gun pointed and watching for any side of life. But there was none. Just a faint red flashing glow ablove an lift door. We carefully made our way over as two guards martched towards us from each side.
The shield teams took them out as me and Tasha got in the life and headed for Drakov.
I rested my head against the cold wood of the lift and took on a deep breath looking at Nats dark face.
She looked back and we gave eachother a small nod before drawing are weapons and letting the doors open into a modern room full of guards and girls who ran at us almost in sync.
The battle began.
This was hard. They all had the same fighting style as me and Tasha having been trained the same. Throwing and receiving punches and tasers to the stomach as painful and my muscles were burning with fatigue.
I turned to spare a look at nat who had a small gash down her cheek but nothing fatal but before I could turn around one of the girls hit me hard in the face disorientating me.
One after another the hits came and I could feel blood streaming steadily down my face. One more hit and my vision returned and I was back on my game.
This was an unfair fight. 2 against 20 or so widows and we had only got through around half of them. A blurred but harsh pain hit the top of my shoulder as a small knife dug into my flesh. Unreachable by myself.
One of the girls. Rather strong and taller than me got me in a headlock as some of the other beat my stomach. I could practically count the broken ribs.
Suddenly the girls stopped keeping me in a headlock but the Rama inning 5 girls backing of clearing a vision to Tasha who was sprawled out on the floor trying to get up.
Someone came up behind me stabbing me with a sharp pinch of a shringe and I realised what ever was just injected me relaxed my muscles instently making me feel limp and unable to fight.

Tasha looked up to me from the floor tears threatens to flee my eyes as she realised that I was unable to move. Unable to protect her.

"Don't worry my y/n, the serum only lasts up to 20 minutes but I guess that gives ,e a little time to spend with little Natasha without you running to her aid" a dark and familia voice that sent shivers up my spine
Drakov
"No stop, please" I tried blood gurgling my words.
"Please don't touch her I sweat to god I will kill you"I said again tears now falling and stinging the open wounds on my face.
I tried to stand and rid of the widows holding me down but my muscles burnt and didn't move.
I could only watch and beg as I watcned him make his way over to my girl on the floor
She began to pick herself up clutching onto a wound on her side and looking at him with fear in her eyes.
"Ahhh little Natasha thought she killed me" he said traceing the wounds on her face
I shook again trying to break free of the hands griping onto me but instead got a smack to the head from a metal stick of sorts.
"Please" I whimpered
Drakov turned to me and walked over slapping me hard against my safe cause img blood to spray across the room from my wounds
Tasha leaped to him trying to take him down but paused mid air when her fists didn't reach him.
She was unable to harm him.
He swiped a fake slap across her face as she flinched away.
The next one wasn't fake. He punched her hard in the face causing her to step back.
"You thing I can't take a punch?"she said spitting blood out of her mouth.
This time he didn't hold back. He beat her until she was a bloody heap on the floor barely a foot I front of me
"Im sorry Tasha,I'm sorry" I sobbed
Drakov turned again grabbing her by the hair and holding her face inches from mine
"It's okay" she whispered
I could slowly feels the strength returning to my muscles and I leapt up knocking down the two girls holding me and rushing to Nats side.
It was me her and Drakov now
I rolled her onto her side and pulled her head onto my lap stroking her blood stained hair
"Im so sorry" I cried intom her as he held my hand reassuring me she was ok
She began to sit up and I stood looking Drakov in the eye.
It was the first time I had ever seen him scared.
Blood was still streaming from the gashes over my face and my broken nose as I sprung forward and was surprised when I felt my hand hit his damp cold face.
I punched him over and over again until he was a lifeless body on the ground then fired two shots into his head for reassurance.
I turned disregarding yet another dead body added to my ledger and crouched on the floor next to Tasha holding her forehead against mine sobbing deeply into her scent.
"Tasha please wake up. Common baby open you eyes for me. Please Tasha I need you common" I cannot lose her and gripped on to her with all my strength sobbing into her face.
Her eyes fluttered open and I cried into her lips holding her into my body trembling.
She was ok
She was getting up

"I'm so sorry Tasha" I whispered into her head and helped her up of the ground.
"I'm okay y/n" she said holding my face to hers
She turned me so my back was facing her and pulled the knife out of my shoulder. That stung like a bitch and she held my weight as I almost fell from the pain. Leaning into my back and holding my head against hers

We turned to leave holding Tasha under my arms before we were met by a all to familia figure in the door.

"Lena"I whispered under my breath in disbelieve
"Lena your alive" her eves were fixed on me. Emotionless
And she started swinging hitting me hard in the face. We fought and I could only wonder how she was alive and why she was trying to kill me.
"Yelena stop!" I held my hands up
"I'm not going to fight you. I can't fight you so stop" I said tears stinging at my eyes
She turned then looking at Nat who was also looking at her in disbelieve. She ran at Nat and gain began fighting. I pulled out my gun and pointed.
"Lena please stop" I sobbed
"I can't shoot you" she stopped then and walked Slowly towards me until my gun was pressed against her forehead.
"Please" I whispered
I looked into her eyes. Dark and emotionless but I knew she was in there somewhere.
So I did it I turned the gun on myself and in one swift movement yelena was the one pressing the gun against my head.
Tears pricked at her eyes like she was fighting something so strong within her and her teeth were gritted.
"It's ok"I said
"It's not your fault" and just like that the gun fell from between us and she fell to the ground crying and fighting her urge to kill.
I joined her on the floor and held her face in my hands.
"Its really you?" I whispered
"She just nodded and sobbed my name.
I held her head into me so tight like I used to when we were just kids in the red room protecting eachother from the world.

When we got back to the compound I showed yelena to the room next to me and Nats. She hadn't changed a bit. Despite what she had been through she still smiled and chatted and her and Nat spoke and smiled.
It was nice to watch.
I headed to the Med bay to see if there was something stronger that I could get for the pain and was greeted by Bruce.
"Jesus y/n" he said in shock
I forgot that my face is covered in blood and I looked like a murderous monster
"It's ok.it's worse than it looks."
I walked past hi, and leant over the sing scrubbing the drying blood of my face and watching it fall down the drain.

"You have some pretty bad wounds there lie down let me help"
I didn't have the energy to argue so I just lay there while Bruce looked over my bruised and battered body.
"The new girl?" He asked
"Yelena belova, she was my best friend in 5e red room with Nat and Nats sister before the red room"I confirmed
"I was told she was dead" I paused
"Drakov told me he killed her so I would focus more on the missions and training"
"So I escaped, Bruce I left her there"
He just looked at me sympathetically "you didn't know"
He stocked up my shoulder reset my nose and put some glue on my face to hold the seeping wounds together.
"Thank you" I sat up and he gave me some pills.
"Hey,I know that Tasha won't let me help her but if she's hurt you will sort her yeah?" He asked
"Don't worry she's got a few bruises but nothing to major, I might have to put a stitch or two in her side but nothing she is complaining about"

I wondered the halls of the compound searching for Tasha finding her sat on the bed with her sister. The same smirk printed on both there faces.I leaned against the door and watched as both of the only people I care about sat giggling about some family brawl.

"Stop stalking and come join us" lenas deep Russian accent said
I wondered into the room and planted myself down behind Tasha as she restated back her weary body against me.

Bu 10 pm we left Yelena go get some rest and me and Nat wondered next door back to the room.
She lay on the bed and I grabbed the first aid kit from the bathroom and lifted her shirt.
The small incision was raw but not as bad as I thought it could be.
I get a Gaul and traced the sides around it with an antiseptic wipe as she tensed under the sting. "Sorry" I cringed seeing the pain on her face
"It's ok it's not your fault" she said
Her eyes never left mine while I slowly worked stitching up her side. She had my forearm in her hand and squeezes a little harder every time I went in with the needle.
After 5 mins it was done and I put a gauze with tape over the mark and focused my attention to the cuts on her face tracing them with my finger.
Until I found the one on her lip
My finger ghosted over her lip and she was looking at mine.
I leaned in and our breaths joined when I pecked her bottom lip and tugged gently as she went in for a deeper kiss.
I puched her back gently on the bed and lay over her kissing her while her hands traced the scars and bruises over my body and back as a moved my attention to her neck and chest.
"Y/n" she said between deep breaths
"Ye"I said looking into her eyes
"I love you"
"I love you to Natalia" I replied kissing her hards being carful around her cuts.
