Elle,Lilith and Natasha panted as they made their way from the freezing river. "Do you have it" Natasha asked Elle who nodded, knowing she wouldn't be able to catch her breath enough to speak. Elle pulled the bundle of red dust vials from her satchel and handed it to Natasha,the elder woman examined the vials before pulling something from them.

"I know you're out there"A woman's voice came from behind the door as Natasha tried to pick the lock. "I know you know I'm out here"Nat  said,she drew her gun and side eyed Lilith and Elle,both sixteen year old girls done the same. "Then why are you skulking around like it's a minefield"The woman asked "Cause I don't know if I can trust you"Nat said. "Funny,I was going to say the same"The woman said "So we gonna talk like grown ups"Natasha asked,she stepped around the door frame.

"Is that what we are"The blonde infront of her asked "Put it down before I make you"The blonde said as she and Natasha walked. "You put yours down"Natasha retorted,the blonde stepped on something "Watch your step"Natasha said,the blonde gave a light chuckle. Elle and Lilith stayed out of the fight path but kept a close eye on Natasha,both were very good shots and neither were afraid to pull the trigger.

They have equal blood on their hands,of course not as much as Natasha but in the last three months Elle has killed three less than thirty people,Lilith has killed no less than thirty. Both keep a book of names and neither are happy about what they've done but they do what they have to do to survive.

"What bullet does that"The blonde asked Natasha as she opened a bottle of liquor."Not bullets. Arrows" Natasha said "What kids of mother brings her children to territory with unknown threats"The blonde asked "The blonde isn't mine"Natasha said. "Neither are biologically yours shit head"The blonde said "Actually the brunette is"Natasha said "The blonde is her friend,she's on the run with us"Natasha said.

Elle spun her knife around her fingers as she and Lilith listened to Natasha and Yelena speak in the room across the hall. "You're quiet" Lilith said "I'm thinking"Elle said without looking up from her journal "You're reading"Lilith said. "And torturing yourself because of guilt" Lilith said,Elle let the blade leave her fingers without looking to see where it'd land. "Sore topic"Lilith said,Elle caught the blade just as she looked up "I get it. But you have to bury it or it will eat you alive"Lilith said.

Yelena blocked Elle's way once again as she tried to juke her "I'm older and stronger,please do not make me hurt you"Yelena said. Natasha kept her shoulder infront of Lilith who wiped her nose on the back of her hand. "Little Ellie's finally pissed off" Lilith taunted "Lilith"Natasha hissed over her shoulder and at her daughter "It's what she needs"Lily said. "To get pissed off. To get mad at someone she won't kill before she snaps"Lily said "I'm not going to snap"Elle said she bent at the waist to grab her knife from the floor.
