Bullet in Her Daddy's Gun

Chapter 4

I do not own Captain America in any way. I only own my OC.

A/N - For some reason, I was convinced that I had already posted this chapter. I guess not...sorry!

When the two exited the VA, Natasha was waiting for them.

"Do I even want to know how you found us?" Steve asked her.

"GPS tracking in Madison's phone. Daddy dearest likes to know where she is at all times", Natasha told him. Natasha noticed Madison's unusual quiet behavior.

She brushed past Natasha and got in the car.

"What happened?" Natasha asked.

"Nothing, can we go please?" Madison asked.

Natasha got in the car and started to drive back to the apartment. "Did something happen between you two?" Natasha asked.

"I don't want to talk about it", Madison muttered.

"Fine", Natasha said, but she could see the pain and sadness in Madison's eyes.

They didn't talk for the rest of the ride home.

Later on that night, Madison woke up to Natasha shaking her.

"Madison, get up", Natasha told her.

"What? What happened?" Madison asked.

"Fury was attacked", Natasha said.

Madison could hear the fear in her voice. She jumped out of bed and quickly got dressed.

The two women got in the car and sped off towards the hospital.

When they pulled up, Natasha got out of the car and ran towards the hospital, Madison following.

They entered a secret room where they could see everything.

Madison froze seeing Nick Fury lying on an operating table.

Steve came over to her and wrapped his arms around her.

"Is he gonna make it?" Natasha asked Steve, no emotion in her voice.

"I don't know", Steve told her.

"Tell me about the shooter", Natasha said.

Madison couldn't believe how Natasha was acting, but she figured that was the spy's coping strategy.

Shut everything out and pretend like you don't feel a thing.

Madison sometimes wished she could do that.

"He's fast. Strong. Had a metal arm", Steve said.

"Ballistics?" Natasha asked.

"Three slugs, no rifling. Completely untraceable", Hill told her.

"Untraceable?" Madison asked.

"Soviet-made", Natasha said.

"Yeah", Hill said, surprised Natasha knew that.

Clearly Natasha knew more than she was letting on.

Suddenly, Fury started to flat line and Madison clutched onto Steve tighter.

"Don't do this to me, Nick", Natasha whispered, "Don't do this to us".

The doctor called the time of death and Madison felt a small part of her die.

Her and Fury had never seen eye-to-eye, but she couldn't help but feel sad about his death. She buried her face in Steve's chest as he stroked and kissed her hair. "Tell me you'll catch who did this", Madison whispered.

"I will find whoever did this", Steve promised her.

Hours later, they were allowed to see the body after the coroner had done his job.

Natasha stood next to Fury's body, not saying a word.

Steve and Madison stood against the wall.

"I need to take him", Hill told Steve.

Steve and Madison walked up to Natasha.

"Tasha", Madison said, "We need to go home now".

Natasha placed her hand on Fury's head and then stormed out of the room.

"Natasha!" Steve called, going after her.

Madison lingered in the room.

Hill put her hand on the younger agent's shoulder.

"What's going to happen now?" Madison asked her.

"I don't know", Hill said honestly.

Madison left the room. "Where'd Natasha go?" Madison asked Steve.

"I don't know, but I have to go back to HQ", he told her. He sighed and placed his forehead on Madison's.

"Hey, it's okay. I'll see you later. I'll keep an eye on Natasha", Madison told him.

Steve gently kissed her lips, all thoughts of their fight earlier gone.

"Cap", Rumlow said, disturbing them.

Steve groaned and pulled away.

"Go", Madison said patting Steve's chest.

Madison got a call later that morning from a number she didn't recognize. She hesitated but answered it anyway. "Hello?" she asked.

"Madison, its Steve", he whispered.

"Why are you whispering?" she asked him.

The next three words would change her life forever. "SHIELD's been compromised".
