Romanova [COMPLETED STORY]

prologue

1939, Stalingrad, Russia.
Natalia Alianovna Romanova POV.

  I am eleven years old. My newborn baby sister, Nikita was brought home just last week. She has red hair, just as I do. She doesn't know it, but I will always protect her.

1940, Stalingrad, Russia.
Natalia Alianovna Romanova POV.

  Before I could really register what was happening, I was flying through the air, barrelling toward the concrete ground when strong arms caught me and layed me down. Next, I saw Nikita doing the same. Mom and dad weren't coming and the flames started to engulf the building. They weren't going to make it. The man who caught us was named Ivan Petrovich, he would look after us now.

1941, Stalingrad, Russia.
Natalia Alianovna Romanova POV.

  A man named Baron Strucker and what I assume is a group called "the Hand" are trying to take me from Ivan, Nikita too. They just want me. Ivan is fighting them right now and I am hiding with Niki.
-
  Ivan fought them off, but I am now with the K.G.B. as a spy. I'm 13 years old still, but I am very skilled at my job.

1951, Stalingrad, Russia.
Natalia Alianovna Romanova POV.

  I quit the K.G.B. and decided to focus on myself for a while, and that was a few years ago.

  I met a man named Alexi Shostakov the year I quit the K.G.B. and we are now married. He is a Soviet test pilot. The K.G.B, which is like the secret service has ordered a new mission for him, and we both aren't too happy about it.

  The state's plans for him were to cut off any acquaintances with anyone from what would soon be his past life, including me. I wouldn't be allowed to ever speak to him again. My own husband, ripped from me.

  He was training to be a Soviet Union counterpart to Captain America, a Red Guardian.
-
  Not too long after he left, I was informed of his passing. He died during an explosion. Devastation was all I felt for many days which turned into weeks. What could I ever do to honor such a man?

  I decided to become an intelligence operative with the K.G.B. once again and they will be instructing me in a place called the Red Room Training Facility.

1952, Stalingrad, Russia.
Natalia Alianovna Romanova POV.

  I quickly became their most skilled operative, or spy. I was their best fighter and information gatherer. I was given the code name "Black Widow," after proving myself.

  I lost touch with Niki when I married Alexi, she wasn't fond of him and I didn't like her negativity. I thought we'd always be close, plans change I guess.

2000, United States of America.
Natalia Alianovna Romanova POV.

  Somehow the tables turned at a point in time and decided to make me a target for assassination. Hawkeye, Clint Barton, was sent to kill me, but didn't. I still can't figure out why.

2010, United States of America.
Natalie Rushman POV.

  I was a part of S.H.I.E.L.D. now, I followed Clint's ways and joined this organization which seemed alot better than that whole K.G.B thing. My first major mission was to convince Tony Stark to join the "Avengers Initiative," and to basically become part of his life. I also took on the identity of Natalie Rushman.

  I was tasked to become his assistant but when I kicked his friend's ass in the ring, he got suspicious.
-
  Fury decided, months later, that it was time that Tony knew and heard my report. He still declined and I was ordered to continue my post even though Tony knew.

2015, United States of America.
Natasha Romanoff POV.

  I went by Romanoff now, which leads us here. Right now it's 2015 and I'm with the Avengers, life is pretty good, except for one thing.

  Nikita is probably dead. I haven't heard from her since 1951, she didn't have the age slowing enhancement like I do. She would be 76 right now and if she never left Russia, she's definitely dead.

  The last time I saw her was 64 years ago, she was the only family I had left at that time, and I let her go, my god was I stupid.

  I could only pray to see her again.
