When The Snow Turns Black

Well... hello

Natasha woke up at 4am and taking all nassesery bags went straight to the quinjet. Everything was ready and even pilot was sitting inside. He was some SHIELD agent, that she worked with few times before but she didn't know him very well, they didn't talk and if they did it was about the mission.

"We are almost ready." redheaded heard from pilot in front of her.
"In 30 min we should be in the air."

"Great, I will sit on my seat then." Natasha was exited about new mission, new challenge. This procedure was so well known to her, that she was feeling comfortable, almost homely. Female took files that Fury gave her and read all with focusing on every little detail and remembering it.

Flight took few hours, after quinjet landed Natasha turned her mind into mission mode. Outside the quinjet stand beautiful big car,  Jaguar F-Type. She loves great, fast cars and that just made this mission much more interesting. The question was how the hell SHIELD had this kind of cars but she didn't need answer as long as she could drive them. Taking all bags she said bye to pilot and went out.

Natasha sat comfortably in the car. On the passanger's seat she saw car keys and grey envelope. Woman took it and looked inside, there was another key but this one was to the apartment. She also found a note with address to her new palace, fake ID, on name Jean W. Collins and some money.

Widow found right address and parked her car. Walking with all her things she was looking for any suspicious movement, people. She went upstairs looking all the time for some cameras and any HYDRA agents.
Redheaded opened door with found keys. Now she was inside apartment on her left was small living room and on the right  light kitchen. When she walked deeper inside, she saw two doors, one to the bedroom, other to the bathroom. She left bags on the bed and walked to the window. From this bedroom Natasha could see entrance to HYDRA facility, well it wasn't like 4 men standing with AK-47 but she could say who they were by just looking. She will take out this 4 guards with her rifle and then is going to break into their base. Thanks to this they will think there is at least one more person with her.

She waited until it got dark. Guards were still standing, where they were few hours ago, so now she was sure they were not just some normal people. Natasha took out her beautiful barrett and placed it in front of the window.
'Window, right! ' She remembered and opened it. Feeling weight of bullets, female assassin put them in rifle. Natasha stood up for one last thing, silencer, with this people inside will react much slower and civilians won't call police.

Black Widow took deep breath, tracked first target and then let out air from her lungs. Her finger touched cold trigger and with next second rifle fired for the first time. After one men down she had to work fast, with taking down three that left.

Natasha was just closing the window when she heard movement behind her back. She fast grabbed knife, that was laying next to her right hand and turned around.
"Shit." she said a little to loud but in front of her was standing tall man. 'Fuck so they found me, that wasn't the plan'. It didn't go how she wanted but they didn't call her Black Widow without a reason. She walked towards big dark figure and atacked with knife, man blocked it with his forearm. Something was wrong but she had no time to think about it now. She had to take him down. Natasha throw some punches in her enemy's chest. There was her chance, she jumped on the table and throw her legs on his neck, then flipped him so that he landed laying on the floor.

Now she could see what was wrong with man in front of her, his sweatshirt slipped from his left arm which was made of metal. She looked at him and she knew who he was. As fast as she could, Natasha took out one of her glocks.

"I'm not here to hurt you, Romanoff." his deep voice rang in the air, while he was getting on his knees.

"To late for that." she said quietly but anyone who could hear it knew with how much pain and hostility that was said. Man who shot her, almost killed her friend and made her think that Fury was dead, was in front of glock in her hand. She could pull the trigger right now. 'He is my friend.' Steve's voice hit her thoughts.

"Natasha please..." man looked at her with his big blue eyes "put that down, please."

'Tasha no, he is a bad guy, BAD, he killed a lot of people. Natasha gun up, don't let your humanaty show up now, come on girl. Talking to yourself is not a sound of healthy mind.'

Man's hand moved slowly towards the glock she was holding.
"Don't even think about this, hands behind your head." but he didn't move. "Now Barnes!"

"Okay take it easy!" finally his hands moved away. " Natasha..."

"Rogers I will kill you." she said to herself. In Red Room there was no forgiveness but friendship with Steve messed up with her non emotional assassin mind. After all she heard about his best friend she wanted to help murderer in front of her even if he shot her... twice. Steve wasn't her only friend, Clint was also one of them but he was more like her and they didn't spend a lot of time together these days. Life without friends was much easier, yes it was lonely but it was simple.
"Okay speak but you have twenty seconds." Natasha lowerd her gun.

"I need your help" man said standing up from his knees but still holding his arms up. "I'm taking down HYDRA and I need extra hends."

"Why won't you go to Steve, he is looking for you and I'm sure he would be happy to help you." girl didn't know why she had to be part of all this shit.

"I can't go to Steve" he looked at the floor."Not after what I did to him." with this words his face looked even sadder if that was even possible.

"You probably want me to not tell him about you, right?" she was one step from saying yes and helping him.

"That would be nice of you, yes."

"You know I live in one bilding with that man?" 'and he is my friend as far as I can have one. Also I think lying to your friend is not good thing for friendship but how would I know.' she added to herself.

"I know, that you are a spy, you can handle this." Blue eyed put his hands down when he saw she was not trying to kill him anymore. "And I'm sure you don't have just one place, since you are who you are."

"Remaid me why I'm still talking to you." female assassin said sarcastically.

"Cuz you're Steve's friend and you don't like HYDRA." he was getting much more confident, when he noticed that she was really thinking about what he said.

She knew he was right, yes she didn't like that awful organisation that almost destroyed SHIELD from inside.
"Fine, I'm in." she was going to help him, (well first he was going to help her with this mission) but sure as hell she wasn't going to trust him. 'Not that fast cowboy.'
"But I have few conditions." redheaded put her gun to holster. "First, you are staying in one of my places in New York, after we finish here, so I can keep an eye on you and I don't care how you get there but if you want my help, then you will. Second you are telling me everything about that mission, you will keep one little secret to yourself and I'm out. Understood?"

"Clear and shinny." brunet shaped his mouth into smile. Finally someone was not trying to kill him, well not anymore. HYDRA took everything from him and with redheaded assassin's help he was going to take everything from them.

"Okay enough of that Barnes." 'why the hell he was smiling, he was deadly machine this things don't smile.' And there she is Natasha everyone know and love.

"You know you can call me Bucky or James." he wanted to be nice to his new coworker.

'How about no.' "I still don't like you Barnes."

"Good that you don't have to Romanoff." she had hundred procent right to hate him so it's not bad if she calls him Barnes.

"Now, do what you want, I have some HYDRA to kill."

~°°°~

Yes, Bucky!!!
I really have an idea for this story, I swear.
