Chapter Text
A big slam of the door causes Kate to wake up abruptly from her deep sleep, her heart rate speeding up a bit from the little scare it caused her, the girl's eyes blinked a couple of times, after a couple of tries she was finally able to see the person who had brought her out of her peaceful state. At the entrance stood an América Chávez with her arms crossed and with a complete expression.
"What do you want, Chá?" The black-haired woman places the pillow over her head to cover her face of the sudden light in the room. She didn't notice when her best friend turned on the light
"I want you to get out of that bed and eat something, Kate, it's 5 in the afternoon." The latina approaches the bed and uncovers the archer with a quick movement, the brunette is not surprised that her best friend was wearing one of Yelena's sweatshirts, lately it was the only thing she wore.
"We all want something and we don't always get what we want" The voice of the girl with brown eyes is muffled by the large pillow. "Please go away, I want to be alone" America slaps the pillow sending it flying across the room, causing the archer to sit up and look at her angrily, if her bow had been in then the bureau would surely have shot an arrow at his head by now.
"I left you alone the first days, but it's been 3 weeks, you never leave the bed, you don't eat and you smell horrible "It hurt the Latina to see Kate like this, destroyed and not wanting to to live, to say that her best friend had her heartbroken was little, her heart was gone weeks ago and is right now somewhere in the world. "When was the last time that you took a shower? "
"About four days ago" Responds the black-haired woman reluctantly, she knew that the other girl was going to press until she knew that information.
"I want you to go to that bathroom right now and take a shower, when you're done go to the kitchen Harry is cooking " The brunette starts walking to the door, before leave turns again to see her friend. "I'll be back in 5 minutes, if you're not in the bathroom I'm going to drag you there, I swear Katherine ... "
"Don't tell me like that" Kate quickly gets out of bed, she didn't want anyone to say her full name unless you're a blonde with a Russian accent. "No one can tell me like that"
"I'll be back in 5 minutes, hurry up" The Latina ordered before leaving, she didn't want to lengthen the discussion, the black-haired woman didn't like her full name, but she loved it when Yelena said it, that was not a secret for anyone, the brunette can not believe all the impact that had the green-eyed over her best friend, it was going to be hard for Kate to get over her.
The archer took a clean pajama from the ones the spy had left and went to the bathroom, every time she went in she avoided seeing the bathtub, there she spent one of her last moments with the Green-eyed, remembering that she had given her his last "I love you" that made her want to cry, in that at the moment she did not imagine that something would change, but the next day her girlfriend was gone and instead there was a letter where she told her that she loved her, but she had to go, she read so many times those words that she memorize everything that was written with the perfect calligraphy of the green eye.
When the warm water from the shower touched the brown-eyed girl's skin, she took a little heavy breath, stood for a moment doing nothing, just she closed her eyes and stood still under the jets of water, her chest rising and falling slowly with each breath, she felt incomplete and just that. The archer took the bottle on the little shelf and her stomach got smaller, her shampoo had finished a week ago, now there was only Yelena's special shampoo with the smell of Manzanilla, she herself had convinced her girlfriend or ex-girlfriend (she doesn't know how to define current situation) to buy it on the grounds that beautiful hair deserves a better care.
Obviously the green-eyed at the beginning refused saying "I'm not going to spend more money on shampoo for blondes, that's stupid" but when the black-haired woman used her sexy voice she couldn't help but say no, both she and Kate noticed the big change in her curls, so the spy continued using the product, making the scent of Chamomile another hallmark of her hair blond.
The black-haired girl bit her lower lip hard to avoid thinking more about those moments, also to prevent the tears from coming out. He did not know how long she had been in the shower when someone knocked on the bathroom door.
"Katie is me" Harry says from the other side of the door with the greatest possible tact, he doesn't know what tone to use with this version of the brown-eyed girl. America sent him to check that her best friend was not still in bed. "The food is ready, try to come before it gets cold"
"Thanks Harry, I'll be there in a moment." If he had to guess, the brunette would say that's the one tone of the archer to avoid crying, he has known her for a long time that he has learned to differentiate certain things from her best friend, so Harry goes back to the kitchen to give her the alone time she needs.
The Latina had wasted no time and was already at the bar eating a piece of homemade pizza, contrary to the popular belief that rich kids don't know how to make nothing both Harry and Kate were excellent cooks, their passion for cooking arose when they were kids, both guys would sneak into kitchens during rich people's parties to which their parents forced them to go, however they kept that talent a secret until high school when they took the courage to join the cooking class taught by the institute, of course when learning that girls prefer people who know how to cook they did not take long to make a movement of that to conquer, that made them more irresistible for the entire female high school population.
"Kate is taking a shower" Says the blue-eyed as he enters and sees the silent question in the eyes of the brunette. "You no longer have to worry about going to bathe her yourself" The boy sits in front of her friend and takes a plate.
"As she is, I thought she was going to force me to do it" The girl commented after having a bite of food. "I never thought we would see her like this"
"Me neither" agrees the boy, Kate was generally a fun person, cheerful and with a lot of life, right now he seems like a shadow of what she used to be, the sparkle in his eyesight completely disappeared and it hurt both boys too much. "I can't imagine how Yelena and Natasha must be , I hoped they can come back soon" Steve, although not showed too much on the inside he was just like the archer, but for his son he was trying to hide it, like the black-haired woman that day she only got a letter from the spy where she said that she loved him but had to go. The little time he spent befriending the blonde could notice that both sisters completely love their partners, so he knows that walking away to protect those you love is much more difficult and painful.
"Please Harry, they are not going to…" America stops talking when she sees Kate in the hall with damp hair.
"Don't stop for me America, say it" Says the black-haired woman sarcastically as she goes to sit next to Harry. "They are not coming back, that's what Yelena put in her letter or rather, she wrote I have to get away, but don't stop your life for me, I know that there is someone who loves you just like me, maybe you will be better with her, live happy " Comment the archer when she saw that her friend was silent, she knew that her friends did not want hurt her, but that was the truth.
"Kate I…" The Latina tried to speak, but she just didn't know what to say to make her feel better.
"Don't say anything, even if I don't want to believe it, that's the reality, they won't come back." The black-haired woman formed a lump in her throat, so she looked away from the Latina to take a plate and help herself to four slices, 2 for her and the others for Fanny and Lucky. "I'll finish this in the room" The brown-eyed girl just walks away, the duo of friends listen to her calling the cubs and then watch them run after her.
"At least he took a shower" says Harry to try to lighten the atmosphere by winning a bad look from the brunette.
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
A few hours later Kate and the puppies were resting in bed watching cartoons, when Fanny saw a blonde woman on the screen she quickly stepped off the bed puzzling the girl, the dog returned to bed with the yellow coat of Yelena and began to make little whimpers as she buried her little nose in the folds of the garment, breaking the archer's heart.
"I know my love, I miss her too" The black-haired woman says sadly as she gives her small soft caresses on the head, Lucky smelling the coat imitated Fanny and began to whimper, Yelena had not only left her, but also her "children" how she liked to tell them, but maybe taking care of a dog while escaping was going to be difficult, for that reason the green-eyed woman had left Fanny in the care of the archer.
At least Kate has a slight explanation as to why Yelena is not coming back, but her puppies no, they expect the blonde every day to walk through the door and play with them like she used to do, sometimes both puppies sit in front of the entrance to wait, to the archer always breaks her heart when she has to go for them and try to explain that the green-eyed will not arrive, but deep down she was like them, there is always a little hope that tells her that maybe the love of her life will walk through that door of new.
When America and Harry entered the room to see their friend they found a scene that lately was very frequent to see, Kate was hugging both puppies equally.
"Katie, do you need something?" Asks the brunette, making his best friend stand up lightly on her head to see it without moving away from both puppies.
"No friend, thank you" The black-haired woman replied with a slightly low tone. Even though she wasn't quite right, her mood was better than a few hours ago, Harry gave her a slight smile and walked over to the bed.
"How about I take these two naughty ones with me?" He proposes the chestnut. "I think they too they need to be distracted for a while "Kate nodded in response, she knew the boy was she was going to bring the puppies so she could talk to America, how she, Harry wasn't very good at sentimental talks due to the little emotional education they had with their parents, when they went through moments like this both friends just sat and hug while crying, words weren't so necessary, that was until it came America and taught them both how to express themselves little by little with words, for their part Kate continued to develop that when she met the blonde, spending so many nights talking of their mutual traumas helped them to be more open about what they felt, in these moments the archer could not keep keeping all her emotions, it was time to talk and his best friends knew it.
The brunette left a kiss on the forehead of the brown-eyed girl and whispered a little "I love you" before leaving with both puppies in the direction of their playroom.
"I guess you're ready to talk?" She asks the Latina from the place where she was standing, after receiving a small "yes" from the black-haired woman, she placed herself next to her on the bed. "Well here I am to listen to you"
"I don't know where to start" Kate lowers her gaze and begins to play with her fingers.
"Maybe you can say what you feel now"
"Well I…" The archer sighed, thinking her words well. "I think I feel lonely, I feel incomplete and also silly"
"Why do you feel silly?" The brunette touches her best friend's shoulder to get her attention. "You are an idiot, but never a fool" she jokes to the girl to lighten the atmosphere and make her feel comfortable to the archer.
"That can't be taken away from me" The black-haired woman comments with a half smile, for a moment the Latina saw The Kate from earlier, but she disappeared as soon as she arrived, her joke had made for a moment the other girl forget everything. "I feel very foolish because even part of my waiting for her to come back, at first I thought that she would, but one day has passed, then two and now almost a month has passed. Every time I accept that she is not going to return, I gets upset and my mind can't help but call her selfish"
"You know very well that she is not selfish , we do not know why she left" The black-haired girl takes out a sarcastic laugh at her best friend's words.
"Come on I'm not stupid" The archer runs her hand through her hair. "They release my father the same day that she leaves, it's not a damn coincidence " America knows that Kate has reason, it was obvious that Yelena made a deal to save the father from the black-haired, not an hour passed since they realized that both the green-eyed and her sister were gone and Derek Bishop had already been thrown into the courtyard of the Avengers compound.
"We can't blame her, we all know that both she and her sister would go until the end of the world for the people they love" Try to justify the brunette, she knew that her friend now was blinded by the anger stage, that's why she expressed herself like this. "It was taken as a mission save your father and protect you and the other widows, you heard that those people were interested in her and if the price to keep you out of this was to leave her life she took it, all she is doing is for you" The time America spent watching the blonde trying to find a defect had other results, she realized that everything the girl said to feel for her best friend was sincere and now she was not going to let Kate think otherwise.
"It's a nice way of saying that she left me with a letter" The black-haired woman returns her sight to the television now off. "That's the equivalent of getting terminated by message from text"
"And what did you want her to do?" The Latina takes the archer's hand so that she can see her again to the eyes. "Surely those people did not give her many options and we know how stubborn you can be, surely you would already be dead if she didn't do something "
"I wanted her to have told me to solve this together" Kate raises her voice a little for a moment. "I didn't want to be abandoned, but it turned out to be just like my parents, always leaving me in the worst moments. Harry and you are the only ones who haven't abandoned me" The archer squeezed her best friend's hand a little, her hands still they were still together.
"What are you doing Kate?" America asks in a low voice when she sees that her friend little by little began to lean towards her.
"You have always been with me and I never saw it" The black-haired woman ignores the question and places her free hand on the other girl's cheek. "I think it's time to accept that she left and start to get over Yelena" The brown-eyed girl saw her best friend's lips for a moment and without thinking took them between hers.
America did not know how to react, Kate Bishop was kissing her and had told her the words she wanted to hear so much since they were in high school, if that had happened several years ago America Chávez would be the happiest person in the world, but now it doesn't feel right, it doesn't feel right, but mostly it's not real, she knows that Kate Bishop's heart is completely in love with Yelena Belova.
"¡Kate no!" Says the brunette abruptly separating from the kiss. "You know this is not what you want" At that moment the girl with brown eyes couldn't take it anymore, the girl broke in front of her best friend and began to cry, the Latina quickly wrapped her in a hug.
"I'm ... sorry" The archer tries to say with her voice broken by her crying. "I am so sorry"
"You don't have to apologize Kate" America tries not to break her voice too. She may have super strength, but seeing her best friend like this breaks her heart. "I understand you"
"I miss her" Kate buries her head in the neck of the Latina. "I miss her so much"
"I know Kate" The brunette mimics Harry's actions from a few moments ago and begins to draw gentle circles in a way to try to comfort the brown-eyed girl. "We miss her too" That was true, Yelena had become the fourth wheel of that friendship and as Kate said before now everything feels incomplete, her dynamics feel incomplete without hearing the Russian accent that everyone loves.
"You're right" Kate says after breaking away from the hug, she doesn't really know how long her best friend lasted comforting her, her perception of time is not very good now. "This anger that I feel is not towards her, it is with me because this is all my fault and now I do not know if she is okay, I do not like to think that thanks to me right now someone is trying to kill her or worse. I would feel better yes I might know that Yelena is fine"
"I think there is a person who can tell us that" America couldn't keep it anymore, for the sake of her best friend, if she could talk to Yelena she could convince her that none of this is her fault. "Maybe we are lucky you can even make Yelena come back"
"Are you talking seriously?" The black-haired woman asks as she gets out of bed like the brunette.
"Very seriously" The Latina answers confidently while giving him a smile. "Now let's get your girl back"
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
Bucky was in the training area hitting a punching bag when the girls burst into the room, America had told her best friend about the conversation Yelena and James had in the kitchen, of course she skipped the part where the blonde made him promise that he would kill her if he tried to harm Kate, tell her that now It was only going to worry her more.
"Hello Kate" The soldier greets when he sees that the girl walked directly towards him. "I see that you finally got out of ..." The man couldn't finish his sentence, the archer hit him in the face with all his might before he could.
"Have you been in contact with them all this time and didn't say anything?" The black-haired woman asks while Bucky takes his face in his hands. "You don't care how worried Steve and I were without even knowing if they're still alive."
"Why do you guys have a habit of breaking my nose?" The black-haired man leaned his head up to avoid getting stained with the blood that was now beginning to flow of his nose.
"Answer my question if you don't want me to shoot you an arrow" The girl threatens quite seriously.
"Okay temperamental girl" Bucky knew that the girl was going to carry out his threats and and he didn't want an arrow in his ass, so it was best to answer all his questions. "Yes, I have been in contact with them, I am their intermediary when they need supplies or their contact's weaponry, so no one really knows where they are, sometimes they just call to ask how things are here, I'm just following they orders Kate, it's not nothing personal"
"How often do you talk to them?" Asks America as she approaches the scene, she has kept her distance in case her best friend tries to keep hitting the Winter Soldier. "Can you contact them now?"
"I can't call them, they are the ones who contact me" The black-haired man accommodates his head to see the duo now that his nose had stopped running. "They get reported with me every time they were about to catch them or every time their supplies run out, if they are not reported in 5 days in a row it means that things are bad "
"When do you think they will contact you?" The archer asks, assimilating all the information that Bucky had just given them.
"I don't know" Answers the soldier honestly, sometimes his video calls were unpredictable. "Maybe in a few hours today or early tomorrow, they reloaded supplies a week ago, they should have run out today"
"If they contact you today I want to talk to Yelena" Kate begins to walk towards the exit. "I'm going to call Steve and you will tell us everything that happened 3 weeks ago" Bucky nods repeatedly with speed when the girl at the entrance turns and gives him another bad look.
Steve arrived as fast as he could with baby James, he had grown a lot in the last weeks and like his father he missed his mother too much, unlike Kate, the blond man knew the risks of being in a relationship with a Black Widow, during long time mentally prepared for situations like that, in which Natasha has to stay away for an indefinite time, but did not believe that at this point the past of the redhead would return, waking up every day without his favorite spy is the most painful has happened in his life, raising James only makes it harder because every time he sees his small it is inevitable for him to think of his mother, maybe James is not of his blood, but his son has a great resemblance to the green-eyed woman.
When Kate called him to tell him that she knew how to contact the two sisters, a little hope began to grow, no matter the cost or if her possibilities were not too many, he as well as the black-haired girl were going to take any opportunity to bring their girls back.
"I see you're a little better" Says the blue-eyed when he sees the archer waiting for him in the conference room of the complex accompanied by Bucky, America and Harry, the girl looked a little better, the dark circles on her face were still very visible, but at least she had gotten out of bed. "You don't smell ugly anymore" The black-haired woman rolled her eyes at the comment and approached the ex Captain to give her a hug without crushing the little red-haired baby who was looking at her with joy, they had become more friends after the sisters left, Steve was a great help for a while before Kate fell into depression.
"At least I didn't grow a beard" The girl breaks away from the hug and takes little James in her arms, the baby instantly tangled her little hands in Kate's hair, had become a habit since he learned to grasp things with his little hands, a smile involuntary formed on the archer's face, James was always a pleasant sight and it made anyone close to him happy. "You also look less terrible" The soldier looked tired, he couldn't hide that, raising a child is just one of the toughest jobs there could be, Steve just gave him a slight smile before going to greet his best friend and the rest.
"Are you going to hit me too?" Ask the man with the metal arm after his hug with his best friend. Steve noticed his swollen nose and traces of dried blood on her clothes, he guessed the brown-eyed girl broke his nose.
"No friend" The blue-eyed replied calmly, he knew how these things were, if he didn't say anything to him it was because there was a good reason. "I know that Natasha and Yelena asked you to keep it a secret and they must have good reasons for doing so"
"I missed you too milaya" Kate uses the nickname that Yelena gave the little one, it always made him smile and that melted her heart, the girl leaves a kiss on the baby's forehead, James starts making happy little babbles causing the archer to do so wrap in a hug. "Well old James begins to tell everything that happened" The girl ordered as she sat down in the chair opposite Bucky.
3 weeks ago
"I need only women to take care of the girls" The blonde ordered when she reached the medical area of the secret base of Shield, the agents nodded calling the available doctors, it was girls might be upset seeing too many men, it was sure they had too much trauma with them and they had already decided not to trust them.
After convincing the girls that they weren't going to harm them, Yelena and Bucky went with Director Mackenzie to discuss the double agent issue before going to question the blond guy who knew too much about what was going on with the mob.
"We have conducted interrogations with the polygraph" reports the man. After the blonde's warning activated the protocol for these cases, the last time it happened it meant the downfall of Shield. "The only agent who could not pass the interrogation was ..."
"The agent Brown" The green-eyed man ends when he sees the photo, he is honestly not surprised, the boy seemed like one of the people who played dirty to get what he wanted, but surely he did not know what he was getting into, most likely they were manipulating him.
"As I understand it, he and Agent Clark are competing with you for a position with the Avengers" The spy agrees. "We will inform the UN to remove it from the list of candidates and we will also initiate an investigation to see if Agent Clark is not involved"
"Brown knows we found out?" Bucky asks as he reads Brown's file.
"No, not yet" Bucky and Yelena share a look devising a plan.
"Keep him under surveillance, intervene in his communications and do not let him know that it was discovered, we will know more like that, if we question him he will not tell us anything" Yelena got up from her seat, her phone vibrated, Natasha was calling her. "I need to answer this, then we will go to question the suspects, thank you Director "
"You're welcome Agent Belova" Mack shakes the girl's hand and gives her a smile. "Say hi to your sister for me, her suspect is still unconscious, but we already made sure that no one had more cyanide, maybe in about 20 minutes I'll be ready to talk, while they can go to the interrogation room and wait, only you can enter and give access. Luck" Without more the man left the room.
"Can you tell me why a guy tried to spray me with a red substance from a tube?" Natasha asks when her sister answers the call, a guy had attacked her when she was leaving the supermarket with James, lucky she had just put her baby in the car, fighting with a child in your arms was not highly recommended.
"Hello to you too Sestra" Yelena says sarcastically as she starts walking to the interrogation room with Bucky by her side. "I think we both had the same fucking day."
"What's going on Yelena? They were about to hurt James, if things got worse, why didn't you inform me right away? "The redhead was worried, she knew what those red tubes mean, someone was trying to mentally control them just like the red room, there was no doubt that the situation of the Widows was not over yet as her mother led her to believe.
"Long story short, there is someone who calls herself Madame who is obsessed with me and wants to mentally control me, it also seems like she's doing her own version of the red room" Bucky enters his palm to open the lock of the room so they can get in. "I did not know that the situation had escalated so much, I just found out about all this, apparently the people who have Kate's father are behind everything, it was all bait to lead me into his trap"
"You already knew something was happening? Why didn't they tell me anything?"
"Mom asked me not to tell you anything" The green-eyed woman runs a hand through her hair. "Now you have James and we didn't want to involve you, how fast can you come to Shield's base? In 20 minutes we are going to question a subject who knows more than he says "
"I'm on my way to leave James with Steve, I only need 10 minutes" And so it was, a Natasha Annoying Romanoff ready to question whoever they have in custody arrived at exactly 10 minutes, her sister met her in the hall and took her to the living room where the man was not there yet.
"We suspended the rescue missions for the moment, there are widows who resist the breast antidote, I told them to be on the move and not tell me where they were going to hide" The minor green-eyed tells the redhead what she does not know, her sister is leaning against the wall with her arms crossed listening carefully to the like Bucky, he was sitting next to the blonde. "I cannot contact them, I said not to trust if I called, only they will contact me in emergencies extreme, I gave them those orders when I found out someone was investigating me and I destroyed my phone after that, there's nothing that can track them anymore "
"You did well Lena" Natasha comments sincerely, at first she was a little annoyed at be excluded, but neither of them should know where they are hiding, if they had success in catching them today Madame would already have an army of Widows and 2 Avengers, when killed Draykov, she thought it was all over, but there will always be someone who wants to take advantage of women and control them as if they were a toy, her heart broke up when Yelena told her about the girls they saved today, their medical results they indicated that they were victims of rape, beatings, extreme exercises, etc. The only good thing was that they had not tried to chemically alter them like them, nor had they had traces of tests for mind control, but still the girls had already lived through hell and that unfortunately already marked them for life. "Thanks to you they are saved and must continue. So, do you think Madame has more girls?"
"Few, but yes" Answers the blonde. "On the way here the girls told that many died with the mind control experiments so they scrapped the project I guess that someone who worked in the red room helped them improve the breast serum Melina, better to have an army of Widows already trained than to wait for the girls to have they can use a knife, I do not like to think that now they are simply for their fun"
After a moment discussing their theories there was a knock on the door, when they were given access, two people left a blond guy with strangulation marks, bruises on his jaw and dried blood on his shirt handcuffed to the table.
"I can't believe I'm in front of an original Avenger" Says the guy with false emotion when the other people left. "How is your baby Miss Romanoff?"
Natasha doesn't say anything, she just hits him in the face with all her might, nobody was monitoring the interrogation and The director Mackenzie gave them the freedom to remove information as they would like.
"I'm not in the mood for games" Natasha says as the blond boy recovers from the sudden blow, the truth was he didn't think it was going to hit him, it was a total surprise. "No one is watching this interrogation, you are sitting in front of three murderers who know more than a thousand ways of torture, if I were you I would avoid disturbing them, so decide how this will be, we Can we sit and talk or will we beat everything out of you? "
"You're lying, you don't…" The boy didn't finish speaking, Yelena hit his head against the metal table, that broke his nose.
"Are you going to keep doubting or do you want the winter soldier to hit you with his metal arm?" The blonde questioned with a totally serious look, scaring the blond man, he certainly did not want to know what a blow from that arm is like.
"Good, now that you understand" Bucky comments as he takes out a knife from his pocket. "Tell us all about Madame"
The boy told everything he knew, Madame had been working for a long time since shadows controlling the New York mafia, after a while she joined forces with Wilson Fisk and expanded their business with real entrepreneurs to create companies ghosts, that's how the Bishop last name ended up in the mix, Kate's mother was deceived, preventing her from getting out and sentenced Derek Bishop to work for the mafia so they wouldn't touch Kate. Madame has an obsession with blonde girls and correcting the theory, she was trying to compete with the red room, when she learned of Draykov's death, she hired Madrox to find out if she could save something, but she got something better. An older widow of Melina's generation joined her cause and little by little her Windows army was formed.
They don't know how she found out about Yelena, Draykov made sure the Widows had no record, they just know that he has been looking for her for a long time, she even adopted a girl similar to her.
"Well, you are going to contact us with her" Natasha orders, it was very risky to look for her in p erson and still did not have his location, the boy did not know where the new place was where he was hiding. In the room they left the bag of evidence with the belongings of the blond man, there was his phone, it was time to end this problem. "And let it be by video call please" The boy nods and takes the phone and dials the number of his boss, he did not have direct contact with Madame, but his boss did.
"I don't know who you are and I'm not interested, tell Madame that Yelena Belova wants to talk to her" Says the younger green-eyed when the boy handed her the phone, they knew that the only way she would answer was if Yelena spoke to her. A brown man nodded, in the picture he could see he running, maybe looking for Madame, after a few minutes in the picture a blue-eyed brown woman appeared.
"Hello, who speaks?" The woman asks sarcastically, exhausting the spy's patience.
"Yelena Belova, I want to talk to your boss" Says the younger green-eyed with her Russian accent f ully marked.
"And what makes you think that I'm not Madame?" Question the woman with intrigue.
"I recognize the people who have the power, I myself have killed many of them and believe me you are not one, you are simply a pawn, now, I want to talk to Madame, I have had a shitty day and my patience is wearing thin, it's just a matter of time to kill this idiot" The girl points the camera at the boy in handcuffs, the woman clearly if she was affected by her words and quickly passed the phone to a woman black-haired with a golden mask.
"My dear Yelena, you have become a beautiful woman" The woman's features are not visible, but due to her tone she was totally excited to see the blonde, Natasha's stomach churned, she didn't like the way he was looking at her. "What do I owe the honor of your call?"
"I'll get to the point Madame ..."
"Honey you can tell me Big M or Masque" Interrupts the woman with a totally flirtatious tone, from the tone of his voice she's probably in her early 40s.
"Okay Masque, I don't know what you want with me and I don't know who you are either, but I want to make a deal" Yelena says, controlling her panic, many people before her spoke to her with that tone and their intentions were never good, they only used her for their pleasure and made her suffer by doing things that they did. "I want you to free Derek Bishop and leave Kate Bishop alone, as well as the Widows, those women already suffered too much"
"Is your approach to me only because of the pathetic Bishop girl?" Madame asks angrily. "I don't understand why she can have you, first Draykov and now stupid Katherine Bishop, I was before her"
"Everything I do is solely for her, I know that you hired Madrox to investigate me and I also know that you know why I am with her"
"I have loved you for longer than she" The woman intervenes, her eyes became watery, in the image you could still see the blue-eyed woman, who was very puzzled by all that Madame was saying. "Her parents prevent me from killing her, but if I take her out of the way, will you be with me? "Yelena did not go unnoticed when she said [parents] and no [father], now they had another matter to investigate.
"No matter what you do, I won't be able to love you, but if you try to hurt Kate I swear that the only thing you will get from me is a bullet in the head "The blonde threatens, she wanted to make it clear to her that her girlfriend was untouchable. "Yes you really know me, you know I don't failed when I set a goal "
"I promise I won't touch her, love" The black-haired woman says quickly. The legs of the blonde began to tremble when she called her love, she did not like that she would call her that, It was just causing her to think about all those people who hurt her. "Just for you, so you will see how much I love you, I will free her father, but in return I want you, your sister and all the Widows"
"Leave my sister out and the others" The younger green-eyed girl tries to negotiate, but Madame shake your head.
"With you it is not enough for me, I need all the Widows, but I must admit that they know how to hide very well and... well with your sister by your side will do wonders "Yelena shares a look with Natasha, the latter nodded her head, there was only one way to finish this and her sister was willing to do it.
"Do you want to earn my love?" Asks the lesser spy, the woman is crazy, maybe she can manipulate things a bit in your favor.
"More than anything," Madame replies with longing.
"The deal is this, you release Derek Bishop, you promise not to touch Kate Bishop and her father, or my sister's family and I stay away from Kate" Both the black-haired woman and the chestnut they listen carefully. ""As you said, Widows are hard to find and only my sister and I know where they. Do you want to show that you are worthy of my love? I dare you to look for us, if you manage to catch us, you will have us and the Widows, only then will you show that you deserve me more than Kate and Draykov, do you accept?"
"I accept darling, I'll forget about the Bishops and Captain Rogers and their beautiful baby."
"Well the game starts when you release Derek Bishop tomorrow morning."

"So a crazy lady in a mask is in love with my girlfriend and Yelena made a deal to save us all?" Asks Kate after Bucky tells them everything, doesn't she liked to think of the crazy old lady who wanted her for her red room attempt she was completely obsessed with her girlfriend, now she understands why Yelena didn't want she leave her alone when she prepare the tub and now she understands why that night the green-eyed needed, that's why in their last moment together she took control because it was the she most needed.
"Basically yes" Bucky replies. "While they escape, Shield watches over Agent Brown to try to discover where they are hiding, but at the moment he only receives orders to away, he is a pawn with a false promise of greatness. Madame Masque has no idea that Yelena cheated on her, so if catch them the widows and you will continue save "
"So if the crazy old lady is focused on finding the Widow sisters" Harry spoke suddenly, drawing everyone's attention. "Then there's a chance that she doesn't know... if we try to defeat her? "
"Not exactly in your words, but maybe yes" Steve replies, but it was still very dangerous, those kinds of people with that kind of power are not very easy to touch.
"We have to make a plan" Proposes America. "The sooner we get through this, the more quick Natasha and Yelena will return home "
"We will make a plan" Steve says while pointing at Bucky. "You will not get involved in this, it is more dangerous than you think and you could die"
"Yeah guys, you don't know what you're going to get into" The archer agrees with the Captain.
"You're out of this too Kate" The blonde man looks at the black-haired woman seriously earning protests from the three boys, while they were all arguing, the request for video call on the big screen in the conference room.
"Friday accepts the request" Orders the black-haired woman after passing baby James with Steve and runs to the front of the screen. When the call starts the girl gasps, a long time ago that she did not see the beautiful blonde-haired girl, now he had many impulses to want to step across the screen and hug her.
"Here reporting Soldat status" Yelena says without looking at the camera, both she and Natasha had their eyes in front, they were both piloting the quinjet, Kate noticed that the younger green-eyed woman was wearing her green vest over her casual black clothes, the vest was now dirty with some bullet holes and dried blood stains, both Yelena and Natasha looked tired, but above all it seemed that lately they had been involved in several fights, it did not go unnoticed that the blonde had a bandage on her arm and the redhead had a big cut on her forehead, they both have been fighting for 3 weeks, it was only a matter of time before they couldn't fight and Madame Masque will catch them. "Supplies ran out, we are running out of ammunition and we need more medical supplies, a few hours ago we had an encounter with Madame's thugs and now we are on the move, is there any progress on Shield? How's everybody?"
"I'm fine, if that's what you're worried about love" Kate replies for Bucky, Yelena turns around upon hearing the voice that he missed so much, giving the black-haired woman a visit of the color green that so much loves. When their gazes met the black-haired woman gave her a sad smile, her eyes were probably watery, but she didn't care.
"Kate ..." The blonde didn't know what to say, she forgot everything she ever planned to tell the black-haired woman in case she saw her again, now she was just about to freeze.
"Is that all you have to say?" Asks the brown-eyed girl after a few seconds of silence. "I thought you were going to be excited to see me"
"I don't know what you want me to say, Katherine? I suppose Bucky already told you everything." Minor green-eyed removes hearing aids.
"And you also left me a nice letter where you told me to look for someone else", Kate says sarcastically, picking up any sheet of paper, the real letter had been left in her room. "We shouldn't have seen the 50 Shades of Gray trilogy for you to act like Anastasia and think that walking away was the only way to save us, that's a huge cliché"
"You didn't complain when I blindfolded you" Kate gets a mischievous smile remembering that day, she admits it, a lot of good things came out of watching that trilogy. "But what else could I do? You are too stubborn, if I said goodbye in person you were never going to let me go "
"You were able to tell me what was happening and we would have found a way to solve this together" The archer runs her hand through her hair in frustration, every time she thinks in that stupid letter she starts to get angry.
"You know well that was not an option" Yelena thought about that many times, but there was no possibility that they might find another solution.
"Well at least you could warn me after you left" Kate tries to get angry, but whenever Yelena sees her as if she were the most precious thing in her world, it is impossible for her to do it. "I don't like the way this long-distance relationship is going, you know well they don't work"
"Distance relationship?" Yelena asks incredulously. "As I recall I broke with you in my letter "
"Come on Yel-Yel, you don't believe what you wrote either, just the part where you say you love me" The brown-eyed girl crosses her arms in a way of seeking authority. "And tell me what exactly were you looking to achieve with that letter?"
"I wanted you to move on with your life and realize that I am not the only person who loves you" Responds the blonde with sincerity, she seriously hoped that America would take the opportunity and would help Kate forget her.
"If you mean America your plan failed" The archer points to her best friend. "She doesn't love me anymore romantically and she gave me the idea to try to bring you back "
"Well Kate, your plan also failed" Yelena replied, she knew very well that Kate was trying to buy time to track your location. "I know your stepmother is in charge of Bishop Security and is tracking the call, but they will not find anything because we are in a quinjet in stealth mode designed by Tony Stark, nice try "
"Kate she is right, besides we also have a way to know if someone is tracking "Natasha commented still without looking at the screen, she knew her sister needed talk to the black-haired woman and she also knew that Steve understood everything that was going on, she just hoped they would finish quickly so I could talk to him and see James.
"Shit!" Exclaims the archer, she had not thought that the quinjet could detect that. Yelena couldn't help laughing at her girlfriend, it was clear that she didn't take their breakup seriously and the truth was that she didn't want that to be real either. "Next time I will succeed"
"Kate stop trying" Warns the minor green-eyed, she didn't want the archer to get involved more in this, it was already dangerous to have had contact. "You won't be able to find me if I don't want to." Hearing that, the black-haired woman took it as a challenge.
"How are you?" Natasha asks after setting the autopilot, Steve had approached the screen with James in his arms, the little baby was excited to hear his mother's voice.
"Okay" Steve replies with a smile. "He misses you and so do I." The couple spoke for a moment, but it was almost time to end their call.
"Well with Madrox following us we can't stay in one place for more than 3 days" Bucky nods to what Natasha says. "I think we'll check in more often, we'll send you some coordinates so Mason can drop off what we need"
"Okay Nat, I'll be alert and contact you" Answers the soldier. "Take care."
"Thanks Bucky" Natasha gives the man a smile before he leaves. "I love you very much" says the redhead referring to Steve and little James.
"We love you too Nat" The captain takes James's hand and makes him wave, causing the older green-eyed woman to cry for not being able to be near them.
"Don't do anything stupid Katherine" Yelena approaches the screen after Natasha returns to pilot the quinjet.
"I thought you were going to say you love me" Kate commented with a false offense while touching his chest.
"I love you Kate-Kate'' Says the spy lovingly pulling a genuine smile on her black-haired's face, actually she missed saying that a lot, just like Kate missed hearing that a lot.
"I love you too Lena" The archer places her hand on the screen and takes a look at the blonde to do the same. "Please stay alive and don't push me away anymore, you won't make it, you're stuck with me forever "
"I promise" The heart of the younger green-eyed girl is racing, the younger green-eyed girl's heart races, she really wishes she could feel the black-haired hand again."I'll call you in three days. And you guys please avoid she do something stupid" The spy looks at her girlfriend's two best friends, they nod and wave goodbye, with a last look at Kate, the blonde ends the call.
"Where are you going?" Harry asks when his best friend started walking briskly towards the exit.
"To do something stupid" Responds the black-haired woman without looking back.
"Be careful" America says when the brown-eyed girl is about to leave.
"I'm always careful!" Yells Kate from the hall, Yelena was right, she was never going to be able to find her if she didn't want to, so if she couldn't, in that case her girlfriend would have to look for her.
