Adopted by Steve Rogers

Chapter One

Natalia let out a small sigh as she looked out the window in her room at the orphanage. It was raining and cold outside which made the window cold.

Natalia lay the side of her head against the window since she was sitting in the window sill. Nat brought her finger up to the window and when she rested it against the window the ran made a small circle around her finger.

You see Natalia was different from all of the kids here (she was also the oldest). She had these powers to control water. She found that out about six years ago when she was ten, but no one knows about her powers except for her. Well that's what she thought...

What Natalia didn't know was that S.H.I.E.L.D. was actually following her with her every move. Nat heard the door from downstairs open and be slammed shut, but she didn't move.

Nat figured that it was just someone to take another baby or five year old away into away better life, but she was surprised when Ms. Forski called, "Natalia! Someone is here to see you!" in her Ukrainian accent.

Natalia thought for a moment before she stood up and fast walked down the hall and slid down the railing of the stairs. She then jumped off of the bottom of the railing and went to the kitchen where Ms. Forski stood with two men beside her.

Ms. Forski smiled. Ms. Forski was the old woman who ran the orphanage and she also owned a bakery down the street, but that wasn't important at the moment.

Now, the two men looked very serious. One was wearing a suit and had a friendly smile. He also had very little hair along with blue eyes and a bluetooth in his ear.

The second man was taller and was wearing a black leather trench coat. He had a beard and was bald. He also was wearing an eye patch with a few scars coming out from it and he was wearing a Bluetooth too.

"Natalia, this is Phil Coulson and Nick Fury. They want to adopt you," Ms. Forski said gesturing to the two. All Natalia did was nod.

"Hello Natalia," Coulson said with a smile.

"Hey," Nat said in a short monotone voice.

"Go pack your stuff, okay, Natalia?" Ms. Forski said with a slight wave with her hand.

Without another word Natalia stepped out of the kitchen and up the stairs to her room. Nat pulled out a suitcase and laid it on her bed before she went over to her dresser pulling out her clothes and dropping them into the suitcase.

Nat didn't have much clothes. Just about 12 band shirts, 5 jeans, a flannel, and a nice dress incase something came up. Oh! She also had a few beanies.

Nat packed a few other things and then zipped the suitcase before she started back down the stairs and into the kitchen.

When Nat got into the kitchen she could see a stack of papers that someone needs to sign so they could be consider Nat's guardians. Coulson was also happily eating one of Ms. Forski's cookies.

"Are you ready?" Fury asked pretending Coulson wasn't there at the moment. Nat nodded. "Good. Come on we got a 45 minute drive until we arrive to my work."

Nat nodded before she turned to Ms. Forski giving her a hug. "I'm going to miss you," Nat whispered into her ear.

"I know, my little Natalia, but you have to remember that I'll always be in your heart, okay?" Ms. Forski said pointing to Nat's heart. Nat nodded.

Fury and Coulson were already out side and in the car with Nat's suit case in the back. Natalia started outside only to be stopped once she reached the bottom step by, Amelia.

Amelia was 10, small for her age, and wore glasses. "Where are you going?" she asked.

Nat turned a small smile on her lips. "I'm finally leaving this place, but I promise we'll still talk, okay?"

Amelia nodded and give Natalia a big hug. Natalia hugged back before she slowly pulled back giving Amelia a light kiss on her forehead.

She then turned and walked out the the car getting in with Coulson in the passenger and Fury driving. "I hope you like you're new guardian," Coulson said.

"Wait. I thought one of you were going to be one of my guardians?" Nat asked looking up at them as Fury started to drive.

"No, no, no. We were just picking you up for him. He was busy doing something else actually," Coulson responded.

"Then who is my guardian then?"

"Steve Rogers, aka Captain America..."
