Summary
Two pairs of arms roughly grabbed her, shoving Natasha against the ground without mercy. She felt the skin on her knees break and start bleeding, but made no move to stop it while being forcefully pulled down. The asphalt road was burning with the high temperature and the air felt like the inside of a blast furnace.
The familiar click of a gun cocking reached her ears. Seconds later, the butt of the gun connected with Natasha's head — not to knock her out — but instead act as an intimidating warning not to do anything you'll regret. The people holding her didn't ease their grip, talking into their comms in Spanish.

Summary
The explosion rang in Natasha's ears. She couldn't tell if one of her teammates was yelling into the comms, asking if she and Steve were okay after entering the building that'd just collapsed on itself. Scratch that, the comms were most likely broken. Fire danced in the corner. Dirt, grime, and a trickle of running water came through a crack in the ceiling. Darkness. Everything was surrounded in darkness except for the occasional flicker of flames and flying dust.
Natasha closed her eyes and coughed. She immediately felt a heavy weight pinning her left leg down, making the assassin feel more trapped than she already was. It was twisted underneath the construction rubble and Natasha could smell the familiar metallic odor of blood. Shit, they were so screwed.

Where Do You Think You're Going? by aztecl (flutecased)

Summary
Natalia Alianovna Romanova limped across the alley. One hand was clutched against her thigh, drenched in her own wet blood. The other was on the brick alleyway wall to support her beat and bloodied body. Smoke tinged her tourist t-shirt, reading, "I love Budapest!" and the usual bulge of a gun in her black jeans was gone, having been left behind in the fire she'd ignited the previous night.
A knife was embedded in her thigh, but Natalia found herself leaving it in. Something was comforting about seeing the familiar red color occasionally dripping through. Natalia could remember every face that she had recently killed — both Red Room operatives and mission targets — so why should she allow herself to forget? Even at the tender age of 18, the Black Widow had already made a name for herself.
That probably explained why there was currently a man tailing her from behind, far back enough that normal people wouldn't spot him. Natalia wasn't normal. She could easily pinpoint his location and pick out his tensed frame from a crowd— oh, fuck. The man was gone, so scratch out that last part.

Waking up in the hospital—? Usually not good. Waking up in a hospital located in a foreign country, sepperated from your partner—? Well, that's even worse.

Summary
Metal screamed and scraped against each other as the quinjet went down. There was yelling from up front in the cockpit, but neither Tony or Steve could hear what the other two were saying. Perhaps: "Mayday!" or "Fuck!" Tony knew which one he'd be saying. He hastily called over his Iron Man suit and felt it clamp over his body protectively. Barely a second later and the quinjet finally collided with the ground and his vision turned black.

Summary
Laura Barton is a simple woman with a simple routine. She woke up, prepared herself for a new day, got Lila and Cooper ready for school, and then worried over Clint and their best friend about whatever mission they were currently on. Occasionally things changed, but never as drastically as the time Laura got herself involved in a hostage situation.

Summary
It's 2009. Natasha has been assigned to escort a nuclear engineer from Iran to Odessa, Ukraine. But that's when the Winter Soldier strikes, and shots get fired.
"This is Romanoff, requesting immediate backup." Natasha hoped that her voice didn't show her fear. "I repeat, immediate backup and extraction."

Summary
Natalia replied instantly, "A killer, murderer, and the type of person we all look up to. You are the Winter Soldier. You'll help us rebuild the Soviet Union and hail Hydra."
"But, to you?" She looked confused, so he added, "Who am I to you? I don't want to be the Winter Soldier, but I..."
He paused. "I don't know who I was."

Summary
Natalia eagerly met James's eyes, hoping he would secretly acknowledge her presence among everyone else. But the only thing she saw — was a cold and murderous glint resembling the Winter Soldier.

Summary
Her lungs felt like they were on fire. The burning sensation carried a burst of white hot pain down her throat and approached her stomach, leaving a feeling of pins and needles. Natasha cursed herself using a colorful string of Russian. Of course she'd known the drink was poison before pouring it down her throat, but this was beyond worse. The target who she had given an identical glass to was now crumpled on the ground.

Wanda used her red jacket to cover her nose. Smoke danced around the air with a thick black veil, not letting any light penetrant it. She resisted the urge to cough and drop to her knees, instead moving quickly through the hallway of the one-story flat they were currently staying at.

Summary
The plan was originally to escort Laura, Lila, Cooper, and Nathaniel from the farmhouse in rural Missouri — all the way to rocky mountain Colorado. Natasha already knew she had an isolated safehouse there, albeit covered in a thick coat of dust, so all she really had had to do before setting out was create fake identification for them all.
She should've known the plan would go to hell almost immediately after driving over the Missouri state line.

Summary
A girl breathlessly unclenched her hands, revealing a small roll of starchy bread. She faced the other girl opposite to her own bed and gave a small smile. This new girl — Natalia — smiled back. Everyone else slept soundly, not daring to make a sound like Natalia and Anastasia during the middle of a dark winter night. Especially since the numbers had significantly decreased into ten from the starting number of twenty-eight.

"I know another option, but..."
"But?" Natasha pushed. She tried to get a better read off of Tony, which was hard with the blurriness in her vision.
"I'm pretty sure it can increase the risk of an infection," Tony said, "which is not good."
