Karina PoV:
Oleg Kuzmin just woke his two daughters, Karina and Nikola, up in a panic. "Get up, they know." He said in a panic and Nikola knew exactly what he was talking about, Karina on the other hand thought they were just going on the big adventure they had always talked about. Both girls jumped up and out of bed. Nikola grabbed her shoes meanwhile Karina grabbed her teddy. They ran to the car, Nikola grabbed a polaroid of her and her sister.

Oleg drove to the edge of Nevada and as soon as he passed the 'Welcome to Nevada' sign he swerved off the road. Bullets where being shot at them left and right but none of them hit them, just the car. Nikola was the only other one who knew the basics on how to fire a gun so Oleg handed his pistol over to the 12 year old. She took the pistol with a violently shaking hand and tried to shoot the people chasing them. They got to the plane hanger and quickly hopped in.

He flew the plane to Cuba and landed on a runway where he met with Dreykov. Nikola couldn't go back, more importantly she would never let Karina go. Just because she didn't show she cared doesn't mean that she didn't care about her. In fact Karina was Nikola's world, she would do anything for her.

One of the guards tried to grab Karina but Nikola kicked them in the crotch and swung her leg around to kick them in the head which effectively knocked him out. She grabbed his gun and held it in front of them. She stood infront of Karina in a way to protect her. "No I can't go back. I'm only 12. I want to stay in Nevada." Nikola cried as their 'dad' walked over to them . "Put the gun down." He said but she kept it up. Tears were falling down both girls cheeks at this point. "You cant take her, she's only 7." Nikola begged while using her body as a shield if anyone would try to hurt Karina. He slowly walked closer to the girls. "Stay back!" Nikola shouted but the man kept walking closer. She pulled the trigger and a bullet lodged itself into the man's leg.

Two guards ripped the girls apart. Karina kicked and screamed but was then injected with a sedative. Nikola just accepted her and her sister's fate.

"I can see that the little one has a spark in her. It just hasn't been lit yet. Eh kinda like Natasha when she was her age, What's her name?" Dreykov asked. "Karina. Karina Kovaleva." Oleg said as he was handed a bandage. They both watched the girls get carried into the back of a truck. "When Karina is a little older they will fight, Natasha and Karina." Dreykov said.
