    Summary

    Katharine "Ryn" Wolff (18) never wanted to become an enhanced person, nor did she want to spend seven years in the Red Room. Turns out, the Universe doesn't really care what people want, and Ryn was forced to deal with it. She's been stuck in survival mode for nine years now, ever since her step-mother shot and killed her father. Turns out, she was an undercover Widow. Fun, right? Ryn would have given up a long time ago, except for one thing: Her little sister Evelynn. When a mission in Lagos goes sideways, Ryn, and her powers, become exposed to the Avengers.

    Natasha Romanoff (31) has taken Wanda Maximoff (27) under her wing, teaching her to fight without powers, and generally being the friend the young woman needs. But Natasha still feels like something is missing. What was she really after? Someone who didn’t just need her for fighting skills or tactics. A person who had been through fire of their own and, by sheer will, had come through on the other side—someone she could guide not just on technique, but also on the art of survival, on how to live without being consumed by what had been done to them.

    Will Ryn escape the clutches of HYDRA and her past? Or will she be consumed by her own perceived failures?
