The Wielder Of Ember

Rooftops Chapter 20

Sam and Steve were sitting around a table as Rory enters and joins them

so I take it Steve told you the story -Rory

yep kind of insane to have three Avengers in my house -Sam

am gonna go check on Natasha -Steve says leaving the table

so sorry for flirting with your sister a few days ago -Sam

your just lucky she was in a playful mood -Rory

how can you tell -Sam

you're in one piece -Rory smirks

Sam has a widen eyed look

she is the black widow dude -Rory

just like your the hellish widow -Sam

yeah but we have the same temper it's just easier to set me off than it is Nat... and well my temper normally leads to fire -Rory

noted to self don't piss you off. how do I avoid that -Sam

don't do anything with my sword. don't do anything she doesn't want to my sister. and don't bring up my family or past and we're good -Rory

Sam nods a little

am gonna go check to make sure my sister hasn't killed Steve... yet -Rory says standing. leaving the room and she enters the guest room where she finds Steve sitting across from Natasha

you okay -Steve

Rory goes and stands next to her sister

yeah -Natasha

what's going on -Steve

Rory and Natasha share a look neither really sure how to go about this but both knowing that they needed to say something so Natasha took the lead

when me and Rory first joined S.H.I.E.L.D I thought we were going straight. I thought that I was finally setting us on the right path... Rory will follow me anywhere and I knew that. but I guess because of me we traded in the KGB for HYDRA -Natasha

your my sister -Rory says putting her hand on her shoulder

I thought I knew whose lies I was telling but I guess I can't tell the difference anymore -Natasha

Rory hmms in agreement to what her older sister said

There's a chance that you two are in the wrong business -Steve

Rory chuckles a little

I owe you. if it weren't for you then me and my sister would be dead right now -Natasha

it's okay -Steve

if it was the other way around and it was down to me or Rory to save your life now you be honest with me would you trust us to do it -Natasha

I would. and I'm always honest -Steve

they share a smile

well you seem pretty chipper for someone who just found out they died for nothing -Natasha

well I guess I just like to know who I'm fighting -Steve

Sam walks in

I made breakfast... if you guys eat that sort of thing -Sam

we'll be right there -Steve

just give us a few moments -Rory

Sam nods then leaves the room
