After they swam Natasha and Lena were heading back to the compound the closer they got the more Lena could feel herself becoming smaller and smaller. She was beyond overwhelmed in the face of freedom. A woman who was trained to massacre, slaughter and demolish hundreds of threats was still just a scared girl who never got the chance to live. When they walked in a voice she wished to never hear again filled her ears. Dreakov. Her jaw tightened and her muscles tensed. "What the hell is going on?" she asked coldly

Vision turned "We are going through old footage to see if we could locate the Red Room,"

"Turn it off," she growled

"What?"

"Turn it off."

Steve walked over and turned it off before going to pat her shoulder. As he went to touch her she grabbed his hand twisting it around his back while her other arm went around his neck. Natasha stepped forward "Lena, Lena, I need you to calm down,"

"судья, присяжные, казнь."

Tony quickly grabbed a hold of his gauntlet "Tony! NO!" Natasha yelled, but it was too late he already fired at the side of her head. Lena's body limp against the concrete floor. Natasha rushed to her side "The hell tony!"

"She was going to kill Steve!"

"SHE IS JUST A CHILD!" Steve yelled

"NO, SHE ISN'T! No, she isn't. She's a cold-blooded killer Steve. Her ledger drips worse than your dear Natasha." with that Tony left the room.

Natasha looked up at Steve "Help me carry her to her room." he nodded before leaning down and scooping her up.

"Don't touch me." Lena bit with a sharp accent. The harshness startled Natasha slightly

"Alright."

"Can you just leave me alone."

Natasha stood up walking out the door without flashing any emotion to Lena. Natasha walked through the compound and into the living room. Steve and Wanda turned to Natasha "Is she awake?" Wanda asked,

"She is." Natasha sat beside Steve, "She just about bit off my head but she's up."

"How so?" Steve asked

"She just had this attitude and the way she talked to me was just like when we first captured her."

"You know what it was like when Clint first converted you. You had your good days and your bad days. I'm sure she'll be okay in the next few days."

"I hope so," Natasha sighed,
