Roxi Ryder had a bad past, like the kind your whole body tries to forget to make it easier, but your mind won't let you. That was one of the reasons she never told anyone her first name; she was paranoid they would look her up in the database of S.H.I.E.L.D and find out about what she'd done, about her. Natasha Romanoff had been brought up as an assassin, being trained until her emotions could easily be faked, her skills being hammered and refined to their finest. Natasha herself was not a particularly open person and rarely opened up to be people she knew well. But then she meets Agent Ryder, who is so closed off that nobody even knows her first name and it makes her annoyed that she can't read the woman, and Natasha makes it her mission to learn more about her.

VENUS VADYAEVA. RED Room trained assassin, graduate of the Black Widow program. She'd nearly always been at the top of the class. Cold; smart; ruthless. The qualities that they were looking for. It'd taken a little while, but eventually, she'd gotten hold of the idea and had perfected it quickly. She'd always had a friendly rivalry with the other top trainee while she was there, Natalia Romanova. So when a mission, many years later, reunites her with the rogue assassin, how will she react? Cold, distant, as she always had? Or would she defy her training and let people in, to help her?
