LILIYA'S POV: 

'Do it!' The gun is shaking in my hands. Shoot, Lili! I take a deep breath. My finger slowly moves to the trigger. The same words repeating in my head. Shoot him. Shoot him. And then... I drop the gun out of nowhere. 'I'm sorry, I can't...' 'Take the girl.' 'No!' Two Red Room agents grab me from behind. Tears streaming down my face. 'Let me go! LET ME GO!' They drag me into another room. I look up. 'You know what time it is, miss Belova.' It's the brainwashing room. 

'NO! PLEASE NO!' I beg the agents. They don't listen to me. I try to break free out of their arms, but they are too strong. 'Please...' I say, my voice breaking. 'Please don't do this...' I recognize the two agents. But I don't know from where. Maybe once from training. They put me in the brainwashing chair machine thing. 'You know that we can't do anything miss Belova.' 'Please, no...' The machine starts. Pain enters my head, my stomach, my entire body. It hurts so much. I scream as loud as I can. Make it stop please. Another scream. After a few minutes, I pass out. 

It's all dark around me. Then, the voice of Dreykov gets my attention. 'Kill them all.'  Sometimes I see myself stabbing someone again. It's like standing next to my evil younger self. Like the real me doesn't exist. The location changes. I walk into Yelena and Natasha's room. Fear in their eyes. I see myself stabbing them. 'No... Stop it... STOP IT!' I say crying to my evil self. I kneel next to Yelena, to check for any heartbeat. I gasp. There's no heartbeat.

'No! Please no...' I crawl to Natasha. She doesn't got a heartbeat too. 'What have I done?! Oh my god-' I start crying over their bodies, sitting in their blood. 'What did you do Liliya!' I yell at myself. I scream out of inner pain. The same scream Yelena called "heartbreaking" once. I close my eyes, still crying. 'Liliya! Wake up...' Who's there? 'Lili! Wake up please...' And then I realize that it's Natasha's voice.

I wake up screaming, in the car. Next to Nat. 'Lili!' I look at her. 'Hey, look at me... It was just a dream, okay? Try to breath. Six seconds in... Hold your breath... Six seconds out...' I repeat her for a few minutes. 'I'm sorry. For waking you up. And making a big drama about a nightmare.' I look at her. 'I was already up. Do you wanna talk about it?' I nod. And I tell her everything that happend in my dream. Nat pulls me into a hug. 'I'm so sorry младшая сестра...' 'What are you sorry for?' 'You don't deserve this.' I don't know how to respond to that. 'Where is Yelena?' 'Outside, we gotta go.'

After walking for a while, we arrive in a field of grass. 'I said we needed a jet,' Nat says. I look up. 'Yup, definitely not a jet,' I agree, looking at the white old helicopter. 'Yeah, you know what you didn't give me? Time.' Someone jumps out of the helicopter. 'Or money. I'm not made of jets.' 'Excuse me, who are you again?' I say. 'Rick Mason. The guy who gave you your room in Budapest.' 'Budapest?' 'Yeah... Budapest.' 'No, it's Budapesht actually,' I correct him. 'No! It's Buda- never mind...' he says, while looking at Natasha.

'I thought you were supposed to be the best,' Yelena says. 'Like a real pro.' Mason sighs. 'Oh, I beg you pardon tsarina. Was the free flat and lifetime supply of kissel not your liking?' 'Ha!' Yelena says sarcastically. 'Don't let her wind you up,' Natasha says from my right. 'No, I'm take exception to impugning my professionalism.' 'Well, you did set me up with a generator that crapped out after six hours.' Mason scoffs. 'You, too, huh? Tag team,' he says, while pointing at the three of us. I walk around the helicopter to see what it looks like from the other side. 'What an ugly thing,' I say under my breath.

'Aw, he's sensitive. See why you keep him around,' I hear Yelena saying from the other side of the helicopter. 'Where's the rest?' Natasha asks. I walk back to the front to see Mason grabbing a bag out of the helicopter. 'Voila!' 'Ooh,' Yelena says, while grabbing something from the bag. 'Of course she grabs the food,' I say. 'Oh, I stashed that, like, five years ago,' Natasha says. 'Ew, gross.' Yelena takes a bite. 'How is it?' 'It's dry... It's really dry,' Yelena answers. Oh my god- 'Okay Lena, but if you're gonna spit it out, make sure you don't do it near me.'

Yelena grunts while she's getting in the helicopter. I kneel down next to Natasha, who grabs three white suits from the bag. 'You know, you're getting dangerous close to running out your tab,' Mason says to Natasha. 'Supplies I can tally, but you bring me attention from the authorities, all my prices go up.' Natasha stands up. 'What is that supposed to mean?' she asks confused. 'Your mate, Secretary Ross, has been sniffing around my affairs to the point at which I've got contacts declining my calls. I'm a private contractor.' 

Silence. 'You are sensitive,' Natasha says in a soft voice, almost in a whisper. 'You're a very annoying individual,' Mason grumbles while Natasha grabs the bag. 'I'll make it up to you.' 'Mmm-hmm. That what you say every time,' Mason says, while Natasha throws the bag into the helicopter. She turns her head to Mason one last time, before entering the helicopter. 'I still prefer a jet,' I say to Mason, while I follow Natasha into the helicopter. Mason closes the door with a big frown on his face. 

LATER...

'Today is your lucky day Alexei.' Natasha, Yelena and I are still in the helicopter, above a Russian prison. 'Okay, I'm not gonna lie, but we look gooooood in these suits,' I say, while walking around in the helicopter in my new white suit, like it is a fashion show. 'Liliya Valentina Belova, can you sit down please,' Natasha asks annoyed. 'Okay okay, I'm sorry Natalia Alianovna Romanova.' Yelena shows Natasha something on the iPad. 'Move to the door on the south wall,' she says to Alexei. 

'Go left. Just don't make a scene.' After a few seconds, I hear Natasha letting out a deep sigh. 'You made a scene, didn't you...?' I look down, to see a man running out of the building. 'What now?' I hear Alexei asking us. Not very loud, but loud enough to understand most of what he's saying. 'We're gettin' you outta here.' The other prisoners and some guards are running outside too. 'Go to the upper level,' Natasha says, studying the situation. 'Move your ass, super soldier.' 'He looks like a swine,' I say. Yelena scoffs. 

It's funny to see Alexei's try to climb up a wall. But if the situation wasn't that serious, I would laugh. Really hard. 'He's never going to make it!' Yelena says from the pilot seat. 'Get me closer,' Nat orders Yelena. We both look confused at her. 'Any of you got a better idea?' 'No, but you sure that this is the right thing to do?' I ask her. 'Yup,' she says, while she jumps out of the helicopter. She lands in her famous pose. 'Such a poser...' Yelena and I say at the exact same time. We both look at each other, and burst out in laugher. 

Natasha fights some of the guards, while others are shooting at the helicopter. 'Shit!' I yell. Natasha nearly got hit by the helicopter. 'Whoo! Sorry!' Yelena screams in her headset. 'What are you doing? Are you kidding me? Back up!' Nat yells at us. 'You both are doing a really good job!' I yell back. People start firing at us again. 'Lili! Can you deal with them?' Yelena asks me. 'Sure,' I say, while walking to the weapons in the helicopter, to grab the biggest gun I've seen in my entire life.

I kneel down on one knee, point the gun at my target, move my finger to the trigger. And... shoot! I follow the big bullet to the shooter from the prison, to see the tower he was hiding in exploding. 'Ha!' I say. 'Nice shooting младшая сестра!' I turn back to the tower I just destroyed, to see the snowy mountain behind it falling apart. 'Whoaaa...' I say. The rumbling can't be not heard. 'This would be a cool way to die,' Yelena says. 

'Excuse me?! If we are going to die today, it means that I killed all of us!' I say, panicking a little. 'Yeah, but you didn't meant to. Plus it's a cooler way to die instead of being killed by Red Room nurses.' 'Yeah, that's true.' The rumbling continues. 'Get us outta here!' Natasha yells at us. 'Huh,' Yelena says. She turns the helicopter a bit. I see Natasha grabbing the rope underneath us. The big wave of snow comes closer to us. Way too close.

Before we completely disappeared in the snow, Natasha grabs Alexei, so Yelena can get us out of here. Yelena laughs. 'Yes!' I give her a high-five. A few seconds later, Natasha climbs into the helicopter, followed by Alexei. 'I need some help up here,' Yelena says to Nat. I put my headset back on my head. I see Alexei saying something, but I can't hear him because of the headset. 

Alexei finally found the last headset, and puts it on so we can hear him. So... This swine is my dad. Great. 'Ah. Wow.' He sounds out of breath. 'Liliya, you grew up! The last time I saw you, you were just a baby. And you look exactly like Yele- Ouch!' Yelena punches him in the face. Alexei yells something in Russian. Somebody get me out of here... Please...
