"How'd you even find me?" Nick questioned as she and Natasha walked through the halls of the building that the red head had brought her too, with Tony somewhere else in the building, dealing with the repercussions of what had happened when they were trying to pick up Bucky. 

"Face trace." Natasha handed her the tablet, and Nick raised an eyebrow. "You used my own programming to find me?"

"What can I say?" Natasha shrugged with a small smile, "It worked."

Nick just rolled her eyes, but as she tapped against the screen, the girl quickly shifted the search to a map of the building after something got announced through the building, and once she got the chance, she slipped away from Natasha and made her way quickly down to the garage area - right when Sam, Steve, and T'Challa were getting out of the armored vehicles.

The brunette took off the cap and tucked part of it into her back pocket, before she ran her fingers through her hair - trying to get some of the tangles out of her messy curls. Then she took off the jacket and traded it out for the shirt Natasha handed her - since the green jacket, scarf, and her first hat had been basically all the police had seen, plus her braid. 

But now the blue hat was long gone and she only had the red one, plus she had taken her hair out, and the scarf was in Natasha's car. Natasha took the jacket and shoved it into the nearest trashcan, causing Nick to give her a look. "Hey. I liked that jacket."

"The girl wearing that is an enhanced criminal. Took out many cops." Natasha gave her a pointed look, as Nick rolled her eyes but pulled the black long sleeve on over the white tanktop - then she cracked a grin and glanced over to Natasha. "They tell you how many?"

"Don't." Natasha shook her head, unable to help a small smile. "We both know you're gonna get grounded."

"Okay, but still. I don't know how many because I was just... fighting." Nick shrugged, still with that cheeky grin on her lips. "And, you know, you are the main person who has trained me to do exactly that, so I just want to know-"

"Alright, alright." Natasha chuckled before bringing a hand up but still not looking at her, causing Nick to laugh as she high fives her. Before Natasha finally looked to her, "Now, try not to get yourself grounded for life."

"Better said than done." Nick mumbled as she looked back at the tablet, before eventually taking a different turn and heading down to where the others were.

"What's gonna happen to him?" Steve asked when he walked over to Everett Ross, as Bucky got taken away.

"Same thing that ought to happen to you." The short, white haired man wearing a suit - said, standing with Sharon Carter beside him, as she introduced them. "This is Everett Ross, Deputy Task Force Commander."
