The Younger Agent - Natasha Romanoff x OC

Chapter 49 - Horror Movie Faces

After staring at The Winter Soldier for a few seconds, Eleanor was about to yank Natasha further backwards to get more coverage from the car, but luckily Steve showed up and began fighting him, removing them from the spotlight. It sounded like a nasty fight, but at this moment in time Eleanor didn't care, her main focus was Natasha, though she did flinch whenever a loud bang or gunshot could be heard. 

"Can I look?", she asked softly. Even after being together for five years, Eleanor still asked for consent to see every one of Natasha's new wounds when helping patch her up, something that Nat greatly appreciated. 

Nat nodded and removed her hand, hissing as the air hit the exposed wound. "It's not hit anything major, okay?", she confirmed with Nat to try and ease her worries ever so slightly, another thing that Eleanor always did when helping Natasha with injuries. When she narrated what was happening and what she was doing, she found that Nat was a lot calmer throughout the whole ordeal, as she felt as though she wasn't completely out of control. 

"I'm gonna try and patch it up as best as I can, it's gonna be crap though".

"Okay", Natasha whispered, once again breaking Eleanor's heart. She ripped the arm of her hoodie off and wrapped it around Natasha's shoulder, tying it off under her armpit before she pressed her hand against it. At any other time, Natasha probably would have made an inappropriate comment like "Hot", at seeing Eleanor manage to rip her sleeve off, but she was in too much pain. 

Nat winced at the pressure but was glad that there was a makeshift bandage on her. Eleanor removed the hoodie from herself now that it was useless and re-positioned her hand. She frowned when she saw that Natasha had begun to pale from pain and blood loss, but there was nothing that she could do. 

Nat rested her forehead on Eleanor's shoulder as she tried to hold back sounds of pain. "I got you. It'll be okay", Eleanor reassured her again.

"Another bye-bye bikini scar", Nat quietly joked. Eleanor chuckled, it was a good sign if she was still able to joke around. 

The moment was interrupted though when Steve sounded as though he was struggling, Eleanor popped her head around the side of the car and saw that he no longer had his shield, and was currently in a one-sided knife fight, Steve being the one without the knife. "Shit". 

"Help him", Nat looked up.

Eleanor hesitated but knew that Steve needed help, and Natasha's condition was stable for now. "Okay, but stay here, if you move one muscle I won't be happy", she added with a small smile at the end. When she received a small nod from Nat, she kissed her forehead and ran out into the fight. It pained her to leave Natasha, but the fight needed to end soon so that Nat could get help.

Eleanor ran out as The Winter Soldier was pushing him back towards a van, he was sending strike after strike, all Steve could do was block, and it was clear that he couldn't find an opening to launch his own attack.

As Eleanor stalked towards the pair, not wanting to alert the soldier of her presence, Steve managed to land a punch, and then a kick, sending him flying into a car, knife now on the floor. 

The victory was short-lived, the next time Steve went in for an attack the soldier managed to push him back again before grabbing him by the throat and throwing him to the floor over the hood of a car. 

Eleanor pulled out her gun to shoot, the movement triggered him to face her, what she didn't know was that Natasha had moved slightly to get a view of what was going on, and was now watching terrified at the attention being off of Steve.

Eleanor's shots landed on her target, but they were all blocked by his metal arm, making her let out a groan of frustration. When he began walking toward her, she didn't falter, she couldn't let him get near Natasha.
