for all of her life, natalia alianovna romanova 'natasha romanoff' has had nothing, and no one. all shes ever known is death. what started out as a simple mission for the red room pulls natasha into a life she never could've expected to have. if you're reading this in 2021- i promise my writing has improved, my newer stuff is much better. and this was written before black widow came out, and before i got into the comics, so it's not canon compliant in any way. everything is in nat's point of view.Complete
Head Is Not My Home
The Black Widow is a legend. Legends aren't made cheap. Shaken by the events of Civil War, Natasha Romanoff goes back to familiar ground to hide. To hide and remember how she became the Black Widow. How Natalia Romanova would do anything to save her father-figure. How she was one of 28 ballerinas with the Bolshoi - no, one of 28 Black Widow agents with the Red Room. How the only thing that made her feel human was a man with a metal arm. (A story to show what really happened in the comics Red Room and how it could fit into the MCU)Complete
Winter Soldier: Fade to Red
When several of the Avengers venture into the Netherworld to rescue Thor and Lumen's sons, Bucky stays behind and maintains surveillance at Avengers HQ. But his quiet vigil is interrupted by a message. The sender is Yelena Belova- Natasha Romanov's younger sister and fellow graduate of the Red Room. Nikolai Baranov- the only male student of the Red Room- is a fugitive on the run after committing a series of assassinations. Suspicious that Nikolai is under the influence of the same mind-altering compound she and Natasha contended with some years ago, Yelena implores Bucky to help find Nikolai, liberate his mind, and clear his name. But they aren't the only people searching for Nikolai. The Winter Guard- Russia's very own government-sanctioned team- is hunting him as well. But their intentions are very different- they have orders to kill him without hesitation. Further complicating the situation is the chance of sparking an international incident should the involvement of an Avenger be uncovered. Right at home in covert operations, Bucky accepts the offer as just another routine mission. But when he crosses paths with the deadly assassin, his need to free the young man from the prison of his mind becomes personal. Because, if anyone understands the agony of being controlled, it's Bucky.Complete

The Winter Soldier and The Red Angel
Bucky's POV: Nat peeked, barely dodged another bullet. "I think that's The Red Angel," she muttered, sliding into position beside me. I glanced at her. Red Angel? "Didn't think she was real," Nat continued. "Thought she was just a myth. Supposedly trained in the Red Room. Or maybe Hydra got their hands on her first - no one really knows. There's talk she was an experiment. The kind that leaves a trail." She shifted again, moved to another position as the others kept the woman busy. I followed, covered her flank. Then Nat said the part that stuck with me: "Thing is... she should be old by now. But the way she moves? Doesn't look like any grandma I've ever seen." (...) Nat: "What the hell was that?" I didn't answer. Couldn't. I was staring into the smoke, my fists clenched. My breath shallow. "Someone I might've known," I finally said, voice low. "Someone they might've used me to create."
