Greetings

"What the hell is that?!" I hear myself saying, I'm laying on a table. "Tell me what that stuff is!"

I can see myself from above, I'm looking down and myself. I scream and try to fight the two men off who are tying me up on a table. There is another man, he's standing there with a box in his hand.

"The injections probably have prepared her for it but we're not sure." the man with the box says witha slick russian accent. He's talking to one of the men tying me up.

"How do we make her touch it?", they don't react to any of my screaming, they act like I'm not even in the room. But I'm the most important thing in the room. At least I think I am.

"Let me." the man on my left speaks up for the first time.

The man with the box opens the box, I can see a bright yellow light coming from a stone. What the hell is that?

"Hold the box there I'll grab her hand." the man on my left says to the man with the box.

I try to get my hand out of his grip with all my strength but I'm too weak. I think I haven't eaten in days, haven't even walked in days.

My hand touches the stone, for several seconds. I try to fight it, I try and try and try. I don't succeed.

My vision gets darker and darker. I start to feel numb. Is this it?

Costia woke up sweating on her whole body. She was crying. It was hard to breathe. She glanced at the clock on her bedside table reading 3:13am. She got these dreams more often than she'd like.

It was always the same, she saw herself laying on a table or bed and there were men doing experiments on her. It was from her time at Hydra, they did uncountable experiments and tests but it seemed like they never succeeded.

She had these dreams since a few months now, more and more memories from her time at Hydra came back.

Costia felt how fast her pulse was and with every minute that went by she felt it rising more, not getting calmer. She wondered if Natasha arrived by now, she always calmed her down.

Costia quickly stood up and made her way out of her room, Natashas room was only next door. She knocked 3 times, that was Natashas and her code. She let out a relived sigh when she heard Natasha respond from inside the room.

"What's wrong love?", Natasha asked when she let Costia in the dark room and closed the door behind her. She saw the terrified look in Costias eyes. "Did you have another nightmare?" Natasha asked softly taking Costias face in her hands, she was wiping Costias tears away with her thumbs. When Costia nodded Natasha opened her arms for Costia.

They just stood there hugging for a few minutes, Natasha whispered 'you're okay' in russian a few times. They let go of each other when Costias sobs died down a little.

"ты хочешь остаться здесь?"(Do you want to stay here), Natasha asked when she saw that Costia was still crying a little. She nodded and the two walked over to the bed. "Do you wanna talk about it?" Natasha asked quietly when she laid down beside Costia. "Maybe another time." Costia whispered back before she closed her eyes, sleep and the comfort of her best friend immediately taking over.

Costia was walking on the plattfrom of the Helicarrier when felt the cold breeze from the sea all around her tickeling her skin. The plane with Banner and another one with Rogers were about to land.
