The Kate and Yelena team-up we all dream about. Slightly connected to the sister fic of mine -- not really -- not necessary to read them in order, but this is the second edition. I miss Yelena and Kate. I think we can all agree Hawkeye was not long enough, and the amount of time Florence was in it was a joke. But I digress. I present you with my coping mechanism. Kate is fresh off the high of what happened in New York with Clint, spending the holidays with his family. When Yelena pops by, Laura convinces her to take on Kate as an apprentice with the hopes of them becoming partners. As reluctant as Clint was about Kate the first time, Yelena accepts begrudgingly, and thus begins a story of rescue, kidnapping, spilled blood, and found friendship. Who's in?
