Tony sat down at his desk in the workshop and opened up the reports that Jarvis had managed to gain for him about the Red Room. "Okay Jarvis, give me a run down."

"The Red Room is a classified location within Russia. They are a off the books organization that creates spies for the Russian government. From what reports that I could gather it seems that young girls are kidnapped between the ages of 5-10 and are then trained brutally to become spies for Russia. The last known spy to be released from the Red Room was known as the Black Widow, other wise known as Natasha Romanova, or Romanoff depending on which record."

"Any records regarding the Black Widow?"

"Yes sir, she was to be their prized pupil but she abandoned her mission to kill her target and approached SHIELD asking for help. Director Nicolas J Fury took in Miss Romanoff at the age of 19 and has been taking care of her since. There are records of procedures carried out against Miss Romanoff's wishes. Sir they are very appalling do you wish for me to give you a summary?"

Tony sighed and looked towards the door, "Yeah J."

"It seems that they have sterilized Miss Romanova, making it impossible for her to conceive a child. The procedure took place when she was 14 sir," said Jarvis. Tony stepped back from the computer his eyes wide with shock.

"My god, she had to go through that!"

"Unfortunately sir, but there is more," says Jarvis. Tony looked appalled,  "What else could there be!" 

"Miss Romanova was tortured for years whilst she was in the Red Room to condition her not to feel any emotions sir," said Jarvis in response. Tony stumbled backwards, "Have you got a location of the Red Room Jarvis?"

"Yes sir, I have found a location," replied Jarvis.

"Good, send it to the Mark 4 armor and get it ready for distance flying," said Tony as he clenched his fists. "Sir I wouldn't advise-"

"Mute"

Tony stepped forwards and stood onto the platform and allowed the Mark 4 armor to form around him. As soon as his helmet closed he took off.

Natasha woke up with a headache, she looked around and found herself in a room that she hadn't seen before. She inspected the room and took notice of her shoes next to the bed, her glasses placed on the night stand and right next to it, to her surprise was her blonde wig.

"Great my cover was blown. Hey Jarvis, what happened and how did I get here?"

"You had a severe panic attack. Mr Stark managed to calm you down but you fell asleep. He brought you here and tucked you in so you may sleep," responded Jarvis. Natasha could feel the blush on her cheeks and the smile on her face. "And where is Tony?" she asked.

"He departed from the house over three hours ago."

"Where did he go Jarvis?" she asked not really sure of what the answer would be. But the answer shocked her more than she could have ever expected, it shook her very core.

"Mr Stark has gone to the Red Room," said Jarvis.

"WHAT!" she yelled in fear. "Nonononono, they'll kill him and they'll come back and take me. I can't go through that again," whimpered Natasha as she curled up into a ball in the middle of the bed.

"Mr Stark. Miss Romanoff has awoken."

Tony landed in the middle of a snow covered forest and found the entrance to a bunker, "Ah good. Jarvis don't tell her where I am would ya?" he asked as he ripped the door open. "Unfortunately sir I have already informed her of your location." Tony sighed, "Damn."
