❝Zariah Petrova wasn't like the others.❞ ❝She was different.❞ Following the defection of Natasha Romanoff, the Red Room conspired a way to create a new top student. A perfect weapon in the form of a little red-headed girl. But Natasha had thought she'd wiped out the Red Room, erased it from existence when she'd converted to SHEILD. Yet now her replacement emerges and she's forced to confront a past she'd long since tried to bury. Zariah is a machine, a heartless killer without remorse. Natasha is simply trying to do better in this world, make up for all of the lives she's taken. How will the two hold up when their conflicting interests are forced to collide? Will they make it out to the light on the other end? Or both fall victim to the nightmares that plague their mind, of a place long hidden in the shadows? Welcome to the panic room.
