Yelena looked around the old building.It was a shell of what it was.Broken windows,graffitti,dirt and garbage on the broken floor. .The place looked like it would fall down any minute.
"You studied here?"she asked Melina.
"Oh,no.This is from around War War 2 or even far older.Before some partenership fell apart.The Red Room had to relocate to the building you ,Nat and me know."she saddened at the thought about Natasha.
"HEY,I THINK I FOUND A SECRET ENTRANCE!" Alexei shouted.
Melina and Yelena walked towards the sound of his voice.He was waiting happily there,proudly pointing at the hole in the floor.
Yelena rolled her eyes."Good job,smart ass!That's a basement."
Slexei shruggred."It could be a secret door.I didn't know it was there."
Melina sighed."This Clint Barton man said to look for any clue that will tell us more about this widow or why Hydra is after her.Things that he missed.I suggest to separate.I will take the parter,Alexei the basement and Yelena,you will take whatever is left from the upstairs.Ok?And Yelena,be carefull to not fall.Those stairs-"
"Mom!I can take care of myself."Yelena climbed up the stairs,stomping.
***
Alexei whistled ,trying to make the atmosphere less scary.The only source of light came from the dim lightbulb.When it started to flicker,he started praying.The only sound he could hear were his hurried steps and the echo immiting their sound.
"Come on,Alexei.A little girl lived here
and she was fine."he opened one door.
The room was dark.He looked for a light switch,but he couldn't find one.
"Probably is not an import-"
He felt something moving in the dark.
"Um...hello?Anybody here?"
He felt the claws of the creature scratching his back.He turned,holding his shield closer.
"I'm the Red Guardian,just so you know!I could kill you."
The shadowy figure pushed him in the hallway.He fell on his butt.
"You have herrrrr shielddd!"
The creature stepped into the dim light of the hallway.It's whole body was full of red inflammed stitches.It had different parts of bodies put together.A blue eye,a green eye.Half blonde,half bald.One arm with a baby's hand and the other an old man's.
It was an amangamaltion of bodies.
"Who..who's shield?"he crawled back.
He got up on his feet,running down the hallway.He entred in one room and closed the door.He could hear the monster's ragged breathing.Alexei put his palm over his mouth to stop himself in case he screamed.
What was that thing?!
He put his trembling fingers on the comm in his ear."Melina,there is a monster here.You and Yelena take care."he whispeared.
"Alexei,you idiot!There are no monsters.You must have imagined it."Yelena said.
He took a deep and opened the door.He walked out in the hallway.
At the end of the hall was a dark figure.But it wasn't the monster from before.It was someone else.He stepped into the light.He wore a green cloack and a red skull mask.He pulled out his sword.
"My best insult.God,she really hated you."
He knew that voice.
"Natasha?"
***
Melina pressed her comm."Alexei,do you copy?"
She was determined to go down the basement when her comm came to life.
"No.And he won't do for some time."
The voice didn't came from the comm,but from behind her.Where did she know that voice?
She turned swiftly,planning to sweep under the legs of her attacker. She jumped and hit Melina in the face with her boot.This gave her a bloody nose.
"Nice try.But who are you?"she put her hand on her chin,thinking.
Melina took her distraction as an oportunity to strike.She took out her knife and launched.
She moved out of Melina's line of attack"Oh.I remember now.Melina!"
"But I don't know you.Who are you!"
Melina tried another hit,and another and another,but she was too fast.The attacker dodged every move.
"God!You are sooo boring!"
Melina launched another attack,but the attacker caught her hand and took her knife.She thrusted the knife in Melina's shoulder.And pushed her in the stomach with her boot.
Melina hold her shoulder in agony,trying to put pressure on her wound.She took her gun out and tried to shot with her left arm.
She sliced the bullet with her sword."You brought a gun to a sword fight?What a mistake.Let's hope that you will survive to learn from it."
She was ready to stab Melina when a bullet hit her arm and made her drop the sword.
"Scheiße! (SHIT!")"she turned her head to see Yelena,standing with a gun in hand.
"Hey,ugly face!"
"You will wear a mask too after I finish with you."she threw something up.
The blonde looked at how a few bricks from the remaining roof fell.
"You missed,idiot!"Yelena looked back at the spot where the attacker was.
She wasn't there.
"Accept my apologises.I will make it up to you."Yelena felt her hot breath on her neck.
Then,the pain in her arm came.Yelena wasn't going down without a fight.She turned and grabbed the mask of her attacker,before falling on the floor.
She gassped.It...it wasn't possible.
Natasha smirked."What?You look like you have seen a ghost."
Then,the redhead kicked Yelena in the stomach.
"Nat..it's me!It's Yelena!"she said between breaths,holding her stomach.
Natasha pushed her off the railing.Melina managed to catch her.
"Oh,look.Only you are upside down!"she laughed."You were a fun warming session,but I see that someone already took what I needed.Guess I will have to have a talk with my child and get back was she stole from me."
The creature came dragging Alexei's body.Natasha and that thing just left,like nothing happend,leaving a distress Yelena behind.
