RE//MCU - Black Widow: Nemesis

Nikolai is a ****

September 28th 23:10PM
LOCATION: The Mechanic Shop (Streets of Raccoon City)

"Is someone in here?" Jill asked as Natasha cautiously took the lead cutting the heavy chain on the locked door.
Neither of them had expected to find anymore U.B.C.S officers around- and this one slumped on the floor of the mechanic's shop looked to be very injured,
"Are you with U.B.C.S?" Black Widow asked as she tried to get a better look at the damage, the young officer stared at her for a few seconds.
"Yeah, careful, careful." he told her as she carefully moved his arm which had been clutching his injured side,
His terrified eyes quickly met Jill who was concerned about the state of his injuries and what caused them,
"Come on- don't look at me like that I've not been infected!" he quickly insisted, Jill wasn't convinced, but wasn't going to stop Natasha from helping him.
Black Widow isn't able to react in time as she heard the loud footsteps of someone else approaching them,
The U.B.C.S officers head shot up, looking at the newcomer, the fear in his eyes would be the last thing that Natasha would be able to recall.
"NO, NO Wait PLEASE!" *BANG* a loud gunshot to the head killed the officer immediately sending blood splattering across Natasha's face, she felt her blood boil as she looked up at the boys murderer.
Jill was stunned- it all happened too quickly, she now stared at the older silver haired officer who searched the body of the boy he had just killed in cold blood,
"What the fuck!" Jill exclaimed as she glared angrily at the other U.B.C.S soldier.
"He was infected!" the man insists,
Natasha who was still kneeling next to the boys body wiped the blood off her face and silently glared at the man 'Another Russian' she thought ironically to herself, the older soldier momentarily met her glare- the slight flick in cold his stare told Natasha that she shouldn't trust this officer,
"He 'might' have been infected!" Jill snapped back,
The officer immediately went to leave not wanting to get into an altercation with the deadly redhead... especially since he knew more about her than most people.
"Are all S.T.A.R.S this soft, no wonder so many of you are now dead" the stranger seemed to gloat at the deaths of Jill's work colleagues, a cruel statement which made Black Widow get to her feet, whilst Jill still furious, wasn't going to let him get away with that remark
"And what are you, U.B.C.S killing your own people!?"
Jills words stopped the officer in his tracks as Black Widow watched from the side lines, he turned to face Jill seemingly angry at being judged by her, after all he had his reasons.
"He would have turned. Where's your sense of self-preservation?" he glanced at the silent Avenger, he didn't like the way she was watching him- no watching wasn't the right word 'assessing' seemed more adequate
"I'm sure your new friend here can teach you a lot about self-preservation"
The way in which he spoke about her convinced Natasha Romanoff that this mercenary knew more about her dark past than most, the thought caused a fire to flare inside of her.
"How about I shoot you in the face, how's that for self-preservation?" the soldier got up into Natasha's unconcerned face,
Jill suddenly anticipated a fight was going to break out and she knew who she would put her money on.
Natasha took a deep breath;
She could almost hear Steve's voice in her head giving her the third degree about threatening to shoot people who pissed her off
The Russian laughed "Please tell me that no more of your kind are on the way, we don't want a repeat of Sokovia"
He thought that he'd hit a nerve, he was wrong- "I'm the only Avenger here if that's what you want to know" she realised that she didn't know his name- she felt as if maybe she'd met him before, but she was certain that she would recognise him if she had.
"What is your name comrade?" Jill noticed that the Black Widow's voice seemed to subtly change slightly at the use of Russian terminology.
"The names Nikolai, and that's all you get to know Natasha Romanoff or should I call you Black Widow. What's it they say once a Russian Assassin, always a Russian Assassin?"
Jill couldn't believe what was going on, but what concerned her the most was the Black Widow's deathly calm demeanour.
"Have I threatened you before?" She asked him with a deadly smirk.
Nikolai sneered at the Avenger with personal contempt as he left the pair to their thoughts
"Go back to the subway station Ms Valentine, we don't need a bleeding heart like you getting in the way" Nikolai left them both in angry silence.
