2016 Russia

"Today is your lucky day, Alexei." Nikita Romanoff said into the headset when their comms came online after Alexei put the earpiece in his ear. The girls were now in the white suits Rick retrieved, and he had to get an extra one for Yelena. On a tablet, Natasha had the blueprints of the prison Alexei Shostakov was being held in, and they gave an earpiece to the commissary to give him. "Move to the door on the south wall."

After Nikita was able to telepathically connect with Amaya and then get in touch with Katherine, she asked if Katherine knew where Alexei was. She knew that in the 90s, when Katherine was still Director of S.H.I.E.L.D. She was investigating Dreykov, Alexei, and everyone who had anything to do with The Red Room, so she knew if anyone knew where Alexei was, it would be Katherine.

"Go left," Natasha said as they were still guiding Alexei out of prison.

"Just don't make a scene," Nikita said as Natasha used the tablet to unlock the cell doors so that he could get out. The girls couldn't see what was going on, but they could hear a lot of shouting. "You made a scene, didn't you?" Alexei kicked the door open and walked out into the cold clearing of Russia, and he tapped on the earpiece.

"What now?" He asked.

"We're getting you out of here," Natasha said. The girls watched as other inmates started to flood outside, and the guards were right behind them. Nikita noticed that the guards were beginning to shoot, so they needed to get Alexei out of there before he got shot. The super-soldier serum doesn't stop bleeding out to death.

"Go to the upper level," Nikita said. She watched as Alexei opened a different gate so he could move, but he was still moving slowly. "Move your ass, super-soldier."

Alexei used his strength from the serum to climb up the wall, but he was met by a guard who shocked him with a form of an electric baton, and he fell to the ground. "He's never going to make it," Yelena said.

"Nic, get me closer," Natasha said. Nikita looked over at her sister and tilted her head. Natasha knew exactly what she was thinking. "You got a better idea?" She said. Nikita rolled her eyes, knowing that she didn't have a better idea, and she piloted the helicopter closer to the prison. Natasha had her wire attached to her, and she jumped from the helicopter, flipped in the air, and landed in a perfect pose which made Yelena roll her eyes.

"Such a poser," Yelena said, which made Nikita laugh.

Nikita and Yelena watched as Natasha started to fight against the guards and take them out, but then some other corrections officers began shooting at the helicopter. "Hang on!" Nikita exclaimed as she tried to pull the aircraft back up in the air, but it was hard with all the bullets coming at them. She didn't even realize the angle she swept the helicopter at nearly took Natasha's head off, but her sister ducked out of the way.

"Seriously!?" Her voice came through comms.

"Sorry," Nikita said as she regained control of the helicopter, and she was now closer to where Natasha was.

"Nic, what are you doing? Are you kidding me? Back up!" Natasha yelled. Yelena held up her hand and gave Natasha a thumbs up.

"We're all doing a really good job," Yelena said as Nikita got the helicopter higher into the air and away from Natasha, but the prison guards were still shooting at them. Nikita and Yelena ducked out of the way, and then Yelena looked at her. "Keep us in the air, Nicki... I'm sick of this." She said. Nikita nodded her head as she focused on piloting while Yelena took off her headset and moved from her seat.

She grabbed their weapon in the back, which launched smaller explosive missiles, and Yelena shot out the guard tower. "Ha." She said as she got back in the copiloting seat and put her headgear back on. Then Nikita heard rumbling, and she looked towards the mountains.
