Anastasiya was one of the original 28 Red Room Widows-trained alongside Natasha Romanoff, perfected into a weapon, and left behind when the rest escaped.
Decades later, she's still alive-her aging slowed, her pain dulled, her humanity all but gone. But when a mission goes sideways and she finds herself protecting a young girl instead of killing her target, Anastasiya is forced to make a choice: finish the job... or become something more than a weapon again.
As memories of a long-ago mission with Natasha resurface-one where mercy was weakness-Anastasiya begins to reckon with the blood in her past... and the small, fragile chance at redemption in her hands.
(Anastasiya is my own original charfacter, an original 28 from the red room, known as
"The Figure." This novel taps into her past in the red room, a possible redemption and action packed missions. I made this because I think the MCU failed the widows storyline, and I wanted more red room/widow content; so I made it myself.)

The Revenant
"I'm not a hero. I'm just what's left after the heroes don't show up." Alexandra Nadya Petrovna never asked to be a weapon. Stolen from her childhood and forged in Hydra's shadows, she escaped only to be thrown into another kind of cage - a broken foster home and a life of bruises, secrets, and loneliness. By day, she's a sarcastic, sharp-tongued fifteen-year-old who hides her pain behind humor. By night, she is The Revenant - a ghost in the streets, feared by criminals and hunted by S.H.I.E.L.D. When the Avengers discover her, Alex is forced into a battle not only for her place in their world, but for her own fractured soul. She wants to be normal, but she's too dangerous. She wants to belong, but trust comes harder than combat. And just as she begins to find happiness, tragedy strikes - leaving the world mourning The Revenant. But ghosts don't always stay dead. ------------ I only own the main character, all others are credited to Marvel. ------------ Warning ; This book will contain things like: -violence and injury -child abuse / abuse -addiction / substance abuse -self-harm/suicide -death -psychological trauma -bullying Please take these warnings into consideration before reading, and take care of yourself.

Dread Your Demons (Natasha Romanoff x OC)
Time ran through her fingers like water, but when Natasha finds and exposes the mole inside SHIELD hope of finding her long-lost love begins to burn inside her. A flame that might turn the determined spy into a wildfire or burn her out completely. She yearns for the comfort the missing agent had granted her and longs to bring down every bit of the organization that ripped her from her arms. Unknown to Natasha and the team the transformed woman will be a valuable asset in protecting humanity from a big man's vision. But no matter how hard the fight, demons from their past won't wait long to catch up with them. This is part two of their story, so you can go read the other one or just hope that this one will be understandable without. I can't promise that though. AN: All Avengers-related characters' rights belong to Marvel. I only own the storyline and some OCs, most importantly Kathrine Davis. The book contains violence, torture, death, and foul language. Be advised to only read chapters that you feel comfortable with. They will all be assigned the needed trigger warnings. Either way, hope you enjoy it :)![protected || natasha romanoff [DISCONTINUED]](https://img.wattpad.com/cover/213630718-256-k103511.jpg)
protected || natasha romanoff [DISCONTINUED]
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
Names She Never Knew
Natasha Romanoff has been described as many things: a killer, cold, heartless, emotionally unavailable. And she is. But she was not always like that. She has a daughter, or had one. One that died during birth. Or at least that's what she was told. Because of that, she became all of those things. But her world is turned upside down when she finds out that not only is her daughter alive, but she grew up in the Red Room. She will do anything to have her daughter back with her. Will she find her daughter? Will her daughter know who she is and accept her? What will her daughter be like having grown up in the place that teaches their students to hate people like Natasha? "She was the secret her mother lost, and the truth she must now become." Some ages will be altered to fit the storyline better. The writing will get better as the story progresses, I promise! Potential triggers: -Fighting/violence -trauma -eating disorder -self-harm![Black Widow & Red Arrow Male Reader Insert X MCU [Complete]](https://img.wattpad.com/cover/294125929-256-k984920.jpg)

Y/N will see just how crazy Natasha's family is to his and Y/N must also discover a new way to use his abilities following the fight with Iron Man that left one of his arms paralyzed. I know the black widow movie has been out for a while but I'm still gonna say that if you haven't seen it then don't read this unless you don't care about spoilers. As with my other stories, I don't own the characters nor do I own the images. They are owned by marvel and Disney. This story is apart of the vigilante continuity and as such is not a spin-off.Complete
