What happens when a solider, federal agent, and single mother running from her trauma and past, thinking it will help her heal faster, moves across the country just to stumble upon her celebrity crush and one of her biggest inspirations, Scarlett Johansson?

How will Scarlett handle helping the soldier confront and heal from her past and breaking down her walls, when her own present feels like it's falling apart? How will Y/n handle her growing feelings for Scarlett, when she is engaged to someone else? How will Scarlett handle her world being turned upside down when Y/n comes into it? How will Y/n handle her new found celebrity status, when all she wants to do is hide behind the walls she has built so no one can ever hurt her again all the while also being tired of hiding her true self? How will Scarlett react when Y/n's past comes to haunt her just like her nightmares?

Follow the story of Scarlett Johansson and United States Marine Corps Major Y/n L/n as they navigate through trauma, sorrows, happiness and love. Where Major L/n learns that some times even heroes need saving.

This is a cross fandom story including Criminal Minds and the MCU, mostly MCU focused. This is my first ever fanfiction so be nice please. I will do my best to put trigger warnings at the beginning of all chapters. I don't own the MCU and CM characters.

Trigger warnings include: violence, torture, self harm, depression, anxiety and panic attacks, homophobia, mentions of suicide and suicidal thoughts, drugs, alcohol, and many more.

*SLOW TO UPDATE*

I might try and make this into a series, I haven't decided yet.

"Previously known as... Scarletstroke: Girl assassin" * No hesitation * No killing of children * No killing of innocent people * No emotions * And defenitely, NO falling in love ~ Those are the main rules code named Scarletstroke, former assassin Scarlett Gonzales lives by. She is a highly-trained, highly-precise and highly-dangerous killer who considers herself the same as any other businesswoman, doing 'just her job' and convincing herself that she is dealing with 'just her target' rather than a person. She succeeds in contract killing better than any known assassin that ever existed and successfully ignores all feelings or emotions, knowing that they tend to make the "job" not go as planned. So when a new contract comes in and the mark is a certain gang leader that caught Scarlett's eye, she couldn't resist venturing deeper into a world filled with illegal activities on a personal mission to find out why he has a price on his head. Although, what she finds in that world isn't quite what she expected. Now, torn between duty and passion, Scarlett must decide if she pulls the trigger or if she becomes the target herself? Who knows, maybe he might be the answer to her deepest desires. Because her next target: Cayden Carlisle. +++ The culprit took in a deep, calming breath. "You may as well shoot me now, but just know that I am still going to kiss you." By the time he grabbed her waist with one hand and her wrist, connecting to the hand holding the gun, with the other... she was lost. Completely gone. She never stood a chance. His smell, his mouth, his soft growling noises. They were more than enough to disarm her. "I finally figured something out about you." He whispered, pulling her closer, trying to meld every part of her to him. "You display all your emotions through body language. In this case, your hand is betraying your mask." Every word of his was chosen for maximum impact. No wasted syllables, no extra breaths. Just facts.

Love story of Elizabeth Chase Olsen X Scarlett Ingrid Johansson x Y/N (female reader) I inserted Music suggestions for you to listen while reading every chapter! So you can feel the story more. Taylor Swift is here tooo... Please read my other published stories.... 👇🏻🎀 "Entwined Hearts: A Saga of Love, Loss, and Pain" (Wanda Maximoff x Female reader x Natasha Romanoff) "Famous Faces, Unexpected Stories: A Collection of One Shots" (random one shots with Scar, Lizzie, Tasha, Wanda) A/N: EVERYTHING CAME UP IN MY HEAD Sorry for the wrong grammar... English is not my native language... Book of Y/N's Desired Reality I'm not good at descriptions🥲, I suck at it. Some parts may be painful, fluff, wild, weird and some are romance 😃. It's where she became Chris Evans' adopted younger sister or is Y/N really adopted... Chris moved to NYC leaving her younger sister in LA due to his acting career. Chris was a good friend of Scar and Lizzie, let's say bestfriends. Y/N on the other hand has a deep deep deep never ending love for her favorite actresses and Y/N is best friends with Billie Eilish and Hailee Steinfeld. When Chris came back after how many years.... Something unexpected happened that changed Y/N's life. I did this story because... I'm obsessed with Scar and Lizzie ... But mostly I made this story because writing this helps me escape this cruel reality because my life is a total disaster. Writing gives me comfort... Lizzie and Scar gives me comfort. They are my comfort people, even though they don't know I even exist in this world. This story is being made by the help of my fake scenarios...with them... I'm not the only one who does that though...🐸 Ps. It's my first time writing.... Dont judge me... I hope you guys like it🤕 I accept any suggestions please I need your help with this story.

*** I want to thank everyone that has taken the time to read my book, I can not believe it has over 50k views! I appreciate you all so much 💙 Spencer is just a normal girl. Sure, she has powers. But she also has a past that haunts her, family issues for days, and no one to trust but herself. But, that's normal, right? So she's kind of alone. She keeps busy by taking missions, making money, and making sure no one knows who she is. She's very use to this way of living. That is until a mission doesn't go exactly as planned and she may have to give up her way of living, also exposing her true identity and way of life to the avengers. Maybe she outruns them and her past. Or maybe a certain avenger grabs her attention and doesn't let go. **for more Spencer check out my other book Into the Fire** Sequel 1.5 now posted! -------------- Gxg slow burn. There's a vision here, I promise. Natasha X fem OC Won't lie, the first few chapters are alright but they get better (I think) I don't own any of the marvel characters or any part that may involve a marvel movie storyline. I do own Spencer Bears and the rest of the story. This is an AU story. I've created my own fantasy world and the avengers are living in it. That being said not everything will match up with what we know of the avengers and the movie timelines. This is my first story and I'm testing the waters. If you're here, I appreciate the read! If you have questions or suggestions, let me know! *****will be editing to add in smut. Wasn't comfortable writing it back then, but now idgaf. Now that's character growth, amIright? 🥇Yelena Belova 🥇Wanda Maximoff 🥇Carol Danvers 🥇wlw 🥇 Captain Marvel 🥇captain America Started: 11/9/21 Finished: 3/21/22 Epilogue: 4/2/22

She's lived her whole life as a tool for others gain. He had felt he was missing a part of himself for so long, when he met her it all clicked into place. ‼️‼️I DO NOT OWN CRIMINAL MINDS OR ITS CHARACTERS, THIS IS A WORK OF FAN FICTION AND IS NOT IN ANY WAY PROFESSIONALLY RELATED TO THE SHOW. ADDITIONALLY THIS IS A SLIGHT AU, NOT FOLLOWING PARTICULARLY ANY SEASON. I WILL MAKE SOME CHANGES TO FIT THE BOOK BETTER BUT NOTHING BIG. ‼️‼️
