Sasha's P.O.V

As soon as those words left Bucky's mouth, Wanda stared at me in horror.

Wanda: 0001 is....is a myth....
Steve: What's 0001?

I get up and cross my arms, facing the window. I can feel Peter rub his hands up and down my arms.

Peter:*softly* Do you want to do this now?

I shrug, willing myself to become emotionless. I turn to face the concerned faces of my family.

Me: 0001 is a ghost story told throughout Hydra. 0001 has been through countless years of torture and experiments. 0001 has developed powers unlike any other. 0001......is me.

I can't look at them. I stepped away from Pete, who let's me go, understanding I need space.

Momma: What.....what happened to you?

I dig my nails into my hands. Flashbacks race through my head.

Bucky: Sasha?
Me: Trust me when I say you don't want to know. There's a reason its called a horror story.
Wanda: Sasha......

I release my arms. A ball of white light hovers above my palm.

Me: Its not pretty okay? Maybe the story is best left untold.

The light disappears and I sigh.

Me: I have to go.
Peter: Sasha-
Me: I'll be back. I just need space.

I half smile and decide, fuck it. I kiss his cheek and disappear. I'm in Central Park. I sit in a secluded area and hug my knees, falling into my memories.

Flashback

I grit my teeth as they let me down. It was electric shock today. I punch the guard and kick another. Quinton walks in.

Quinton: At ease Romanova.

I glare and a white light dimly covers his eyes.

Quinton: Your getting better. But not fast enough. Send her to room 4.

No. Not again.

(Switch to a different flashback)

I was in my room. It was room 3 today. My body was aching from the beatings. I set a hand on my arm and concentrate. A white light emitted and I felt a tingling sensation throughout my body. Smirking, I stand and walk out, my healed body easily complying.

End of flashbacks

I sigh and my phone rings.

Clint: Hey. We have a mission, if your up for it.
Me: When?
Clint: Now.
Me: Be there in a second. My stuff in the jet?
Clint: Yup. Me, Nat, Loki, Peter, Tony, Cap, Wanda, and Bucky are coming.
Me: Coolio.
Clint: And hey. We all have a past kiddo. No one blames you for hiding anything. We'll be here whenever your ready.
Me: Thanks Uncle Clint.
Clint: Love you.

He hangs up and I close my eyes. When I open them, I'm on the jet. Sam jumps slightly.

Sam: Jesus!
Me: Not exactly. No beard.

They laugh and Peter pulls his mask off.

Peter: Hi.
Me: Hey spider.

Tony looks between us with a growing smirk.

Tony: I have your suit little Nat.

He hands it to me and I smile.

Me: Thanks.
