A/N: This is a text I wrote for English class and I featured Alena in it so I thought I'd let you read it. Have fun with it :)
Summary: Alena gets gifted an AI in a necklace, oblivious to what's about to happen.

Part 1 – Mysterious necklace

When Alena woke up someday in the year 2050, she found a tiny box on her bedside table.

To be completely honest, she didn’t think much of it.

The 17 year old redhead now ran her hands over her face in attempt to wake up.

,,Stupid school. Should be a crime to have to go on your birthday”

she muttered bitterly.

Alena was in 11th grade at her local high school in Queens.

Though she enjoyed some of her subjects, the process of getting up in the morning was always a struggle.

The redhead now paid attention to the box on her night stand. It was tiny and velvet, almost like a box you’d get at a jewellery store.

She frowned.

Who would give her jewellery?

,,Mama? Did you put that box on my bedside table?”

she shouted through the apartment.

,,No мало света (little light), what box?”

her mother shouted back.

,,Never mind then”

the redhead answered, before she turned her gaze towards the box in her hands.

For some reason, her hands were trembling when she opened it.

When she saw its content, her brows furrowed and a frown formed on her face.

,,A necklace? The hell am I supposed to do with a necklace?”

she mumbled to herself as she picked the delicate pearl necklace up.

Carefully, she examined it.

,,At least its pretty”

Alena shrugged before putting it on.
Nothing happened, at least that’s what the redhead thought.

Suddenly, a voice rang through her head.

,,Good morning miss Romanoff-Rogers. I am STRANGER, your personal AI”

a British, Female voice introduced.

Alena’s jaw dropped.

She thought technology wasn’t that advanced yet.

Turns out, she was wrong.

,,And what can you do, STRANGER?”

She asked carefully, her hand clutching the peal of her necklace.

,,Well I can tell you the nutritional value of your food. Or I can tell you the true intentions of the people nearest to you”

the AI listed, her voice robotic but friendly.

Alena frowned sceptically.

She wasn’t one to trust easily, considering her Mom’s backstory.

,,Tell me something about my parents then”

she asked of the AI, confident that it wouldn’t be able to.

,,Your Mother is Natalia Alianovna Romanova now known as Natasha Romanoff, a SHIELD agent, former assassin and part of an initiative called the Avengers. Your father is Steven Grant Rogers also known as Captain America. He works for Nicolas Joseph Fury as an Avenger as well”
