The Avengers all live together in the Avengers tower, some other heroes have joined them, Bucky lives at the tower and other heroes drop by and stay for a while. There is a storyline with the Black Widow and Bucky, but I'm going to follow the cinem...
"The Quinjet malfunctioned and we couldn't save Belle! We've been trying to get any transport to her and nothing is working!" Bucky shouts in Fury's face. His temper is getting the better of him. "We have no communication with her, she could be in danger! HYDRA's tactics are torture. You really want her to suffer?" Bucky pleas, he knows from experience. His eyes begin to water as he keeps yelling at Fury, who sits behind his desk, waiting for Bucky to take a breath. He can't blow Red's cover.
"I did this." Steve looks through the glass window as he sits at a table outside of Fury's office with Tony.
"It's not like you planned the jet's malfunctions." Tony sips some coffee. "I took a look at the jet and there was nothing I could find. So, I hooked one of my devices up to it's mitochondrial chamber." Tony holds up a small circular device, similar to the one he used when first exposed to S.H.I.E.L.D's façade. "We'll see what it finds." Tony states confidently, but still second guessing, hoping he doesn't find anything too troubling.
"She wanted this." Wanda emerges from the shadows, entering Clint's room. Clint turns and sighs in guilt. "Belle wanted to get left behind. Why?"
Clint rubs his chin in deep thought as he tries to find the words to say. "This is her plan for protection."
"She wanted to protect Barnes." Natasha stands at the doorway of Clint's room at the Avengers Tower. "Red and Fury came up with this plan if everything went to shit and HYDRA found Bucky again." Natasha sighs in worry. "She broke off all coms, there's no way we can get to her."
"We know where she is, why not go to her?" Wanda suggests.
"We can't blow her cover. She made us promise. Besides, Fury had me hack into all the transportation equipment, no one can override this." Nat frowns, not pleased with lying to her friends.
Clint interjects some wisdom. "You guys don't need to worry about Belle, she's tough and she can kick those HYDRA punks any day." He leaves the room to throw some darts.
"Bucky, don't beat yourself up. It doesn't solve anything." Steve attempts to comfort his best friend.
"Belle needs us." Bucky exhales in frustration. "But, there's nothing we can do. I know how HYDRA operates, they will torture her and break her."
Steve's eyes widen in worry. "She's stronger than that."
"I know she's strong. But she's still my girl, and I don't want her to suffer."
"The Red Widow... You know I spent 9 years in a Siberian prison because of you." A familiar voice breaks the maddening silence from the shadows. Belle sits against the wall of a HYDRA prison cell. Her face gaunt with exhaustion and thoughtfulness. She knows this voice.
Belle raises her head up to see a man in a red suit and glasses with reflective lenses, "Tomi?"
"Ah, you do remember me." Tomi had long dark hair and a Japanese look to him.
"Tomi Shoshido? How did you get out of that cell I carefully had you put into?" Belle shows no fear, scoffing at the lethal interrogator.
Tomi laughs for a moment, "Its Gorgon now, actually." He pauses to decide what to do next. "So tell me... what the hell are you doing with the Avengers?" His devilish grin blinds Belle as she stares at him, seeing all the changes. He was praised for his intelligence, being a mutant of course, he was no normal man. He was hunting Red, and the Winter Soldier. He was notorious for his vengeful streak, and now, Belle was at his mercy... if he had any.
