The lights above her bed had been dimmed to allow Nancy to sleep.  Groaning she blinked as she tried to sit up but something across her chest stopped her. She was getting fed up with waking in hospitals. Vaguely she saw someone standing over her as she tried to touch them and she realised it was Tony.
"Hey" he smiled blinking. When Shuri had broke the news of her shooting and she was taking her to Wakanda so she could help her.   And much to Peppers dismay he had immediately followed them.  A bullet through the heart was not survivable but Shuri had somehow managed to keep her alive and the Wakandan had repaired her heart. Tony had willingly given them his arc reactor designs  and to his surprise Nancy was improving and didn't have any visible power source on her chest. Shuri simply showed him the scans revealing a mesh of precious vibranium that held her damaged heart in place whilst it repaired itself and the tiny pea sized device that kept her body alive. His only problem now was telling Nancy that Bucky Barnes was in Wakanda and refusing to leave until he knew she was going to survive, maybe Rogers could help him.

"I don't care" Nancy stared impassively at Steve Rogers as she lay in the hospital bed and listened as he tried to make the case for her seeing Bucky for at least a moment. "He wasn't there when I needed him.  I can't Steve I'm not a nice person like you, I'm never going to be able to forgive him for this. I buried our child alone because he left me. I couldn't even put his name on her birth certificate because he wasn't there!" As her voice rose she broke into sobs causing the alarm on one of her monitors to urgently sound and Steve knew it was his fault for even bringing up the topic of Bucky Barnes. 
"He's hurting too" Steve reminded her softly as he stood and Nancy knew she could easily hate Rogers as well as she shook her head at him.

Nancy woke suddenly in the middle of the night confused as she sensed someone standing by her bed. She thought she was dreaming as she felt him bend over her and brush her hair out of her eyes and a soft kiss on her lips. In her drugged state she couldn't stop Bucky telling her he loved her or his kiss which her lips traitorously gave on to.
"I know you can hear me Doll. I won't bother you again but I do love you." With that he was gone and Nancy fell back into her drugged sleep. When she woke in the morning she thought she had dreamt his presence and sobbed quietly to herself because as much as she hated him she knew she still loved him hating him was something she was going to have to work on.

"i need you not to kill Barnes" Fury instructed Nancy as she sat opposite him scowling idily examining her new hand. Shuris work was a masterpiece you couldn't see the join between her finger and hand. Fury knew she was ignoring him. He had been quite surprised when she had taken his offer of a position with SHIELD, leading one of the REACT teams. Her reputation had fast changed from one of a flaky singer to one of a stone cold killer. If she was working for him he could at least control any damage she did.

"Hey bitch" Rumlow smirked as Nancy put her gun away and she clicked the case shut before turning to face him. "I got a bet with the team you won't give me the time of day". Nancy laughed out loud at him.
"Their right. I got better things to do than listen to your mumblings." She retorted and Rumlow leaned on the table watching her carefully. "Whiskey is the way to my heart Rumlow. Pick up the bar bill tonight and we'll see" with a smirk she left allowing him to follow her to the bar.

"Well?" Rumlow asked kissing the side of Nancys neck but not touching her anywhere else. Very slowly she turned to face him and with a measured look ran her hand down his body. "What about your boyfriend Barnes" he queried and Nancy leaned in and kissed him finishing it by biting his lip. Slowly she took his hand and lead him back to her quarters.
"You'd better be good at this" Nancy commented watching as he took his jacket off and layers of clothes. "On your knees Brock" as he knelt before her she leaned in to kiss him hissing as he ripped her shirt off causing her to smirk and run a hand over his
Bulging shorts. "Best take these off" she advised and flipped one of her knives into her hand and sliced down both sides and smiled. She liked a man with muscle and Brock knew his way around a bedroom it seemed and was surprisingly unselfish.

"Well that was interesting. Time to leave" Nancy sighed as Brock lent in for another kiss and she moved her head out of the way.
"Girl" he growled and reached for her again grabbing her face making her breath catch slightly and to her surprise Nancy rotated her hips and went for round two.
"Don't get attached" Nancy  warned as he leaned down to kiss her thighs and work his way upwards enjoying her soft mumerings as he kissed and sucked her surprising her again at how gentle he could be.

"Why is Rumlow looked like that at you" Barton demanded as he studied the plan in front of him as Nancy stood next to him. Shrugging she looked sideways at him and waited. Rumlow strode over to her and leaned into her ear to whisper something.
"Nah don't do boring" she replied with a yawn and Barton watched in astonishment as Rumlow grabbed at -Nancy and he heard a shot.
The STRIKE leader groaned on the floor as Nancy smoothly leaned down to him placing a hand over his bullet wound.
"Touch me again and I will end you" she promised and left. Barton watched in disbelief as Brock moved his trousers to make his hard on more comfortable.  Rumlow was besotted with her.

Rogers stood in the middle of the transport plane unsure what to do. Barnes sat at one end of the jet and Nancy at the other. He looked anxiously between them and at Nat. Barnes sat quietly and just stared at Nancy. Nancy completely ignored him, deliberately letting a hand linger on Rumlow who growled at her and she just smirked and scratched his chin. How Fury could be so stupid to put them on a mission together he didn't know but he was extremely worried Nancy would do something reckless. A green light announced it was time for her team to jump and he watched as she perfectly guided each team member and Rumlow out the door making sure their parachutes were correct as they went. Once they were gone she turned and smiled at Bucky her knife landing less than an inch from his head. Then she stood on the edge and saluted Rogers before stepping backwards. Bucky moved at speed as she simply stepped into mid air without a chute. As he reached her she wrapped her long legs around him while grabbing him by his collar dragged him out of the plane. Once outside she simply let go and shot sideways a nano tech set of wings appearing and allowing her to follow her team. As he fell Bucky realised she hadn't looked back at him once. Looking downwards at the approaching ground he felt someone grab him and wrap him in their limbs. He was jerked upwards as Steve Rogers opened a parachute desperately trying to control their decent..
"Well she did say she would try and kill you" Rogers coughed as they lay groaning in a heap on the ground. In the distance Bucky watched as Nancy landed with her team and carried on with their mission.
