Chapter Text
Coulson was quietly working in his office when his phone rang. He checked the caller ID and saw that it was an unknown number. On the third ring, he hit the answer button.
"This is Coulson."
"Agent Coulson, this is General Carlist Rieekan from the rebel base on Yavin 13. I can't explain now, but I need SHIELD's help. Meet me at the train station at 11:00." The line then went dead.
"Agent Hill," Coulson said into his earpiece. Maria Hill then walked into his office.
"Sir?" she asked.
"Assemble the team in room 3."
"Sir, with all due respect, Captain Rogers and Agent Romanoff are out for the day," she explained.
"Get them back here. This is a level 8," he said seriously.
"Yes, Sir," she responded. She then left the room. Along the way back to her office, she informed Clint, who was in one of the training rooms shooting with his bow, that Coulson wanted everyone to meet in room 3. Putting his bow and arrows back in his room, he went into the room and waited patiently for the rest of the team. Meanwhile, Agent Hill got out her cell phone and called Steve.
Steve and Natasha were enjoying a much needed break from SHIELD.
Ever since the two had returned to SHIELD after Natasha was fully recovered from the trauma from being held captive in Russia, it had been nonstop missions. They were very happy to have the day off to enjoy each other's company. Natasha was about 75% recovered from her captivity. A few scars were on her body and she would still occasionally have an anxiety attack and/or a nightmare, but she was glad that everything was over.
She was safe.
As they were walking into a local sandwich shop to get a bite to eat, Steve's cell phone rang. Natasha gave him the look.
"Rogers, I thought I told you to leave your phone at home."
"Romanoff, you know that I always take my phone with me. You never know what could happen." he responded as he pulled it out of his pocket.
"Very true," Natasha sighed. Steve then the answer button after checking the caller ID. It was Maria Hill.
"Agent Hill?"
"Captain, Coulson needs you and Romanoff back at SHIELD. Deep shadow conditions."
"We're on our way," he responded. He then hung up and looked at Natasha, who already figured out something was up.
"Coulson needs us back at SHIELD."
"Will we ever get a day to ourselves?" she asked.
"I promise one day we will take a day to ourselves, and yes, I will leave my phone at home."
"Deal. Let's go." The two then got into Natasha's car and drove back to SHIELD.
Back in room 3, Coulson, along with Maria and Clint, waited for Steve and Natasha to show up. He already had a worried look on his face as the final two members of his team walked into the room and sat down.
"What's going on, Sir?" Clint asked. Coulson then took a breath and spoke.
"I don't know much, but earlier today, I got a call from General Carlist Rieekan from the rebel base on Yavin 13. He needs SHIELD's help. We have an hour to get packed up and meet him at the train station."
"Yavin 13 is one of Alderaan's allies. I think we should help him," Natasha responded.
"He didn't give me much of a choice, Romanoff," Coulson answered. He then walked out of the room.
The team then followed and went to their rooms to pack up.
