Will I see the sun again? * discontinued at the moment*

Chapter 26 ⚠️tw⚠️ - Hope for Vengeance

Natasha's POV

The house felt off, more gloomy and hopeless. I don't know how but I ended up in Y/n's room, nothing had been touched, the bed was still unmade, pajamas still in the laundry bin, and clothing options laying out on the chair with her backpack.
"You know, you girls should decorate this. It's very Bland" Steve spoke as he leaned against the doorway.
"Do you think we'll find her?" I ask softly
"I hope so..."
"It's weird, in the red room we weren't allowed to feel, we were trained to be robots. Now with Y/n gone, everything seems off, unbalanced" I say, sitting down on Y/n's bed
"I know, we will find her. I'll ask Tony to have Pepper 'spice' up this place" Steve laughed, moving next to me.
"Please don't say that ever again" I laugh
"What? Why? I thought it's how you guys speak now"
"Just stick to oldies talk, fossil" I laugh patting him on the back.
"Gladly!" he yelled as I walked out of the room, making me laugh.

Roaming back to my room, I take a quick shower and get into my bed to get some much-needed rest. For my head being compressed with too many thoughts, nonetheless, I somehow ended up dozing off.

Y/n's pov

The night came and went, and we were able to get to the cabin Aaron notified us about,  thanks to Pietro's speed after I got shot a few times by guards as we fled.
"Oh my God! No one says how much getting shot fucking hurts!" I mumble in pain
"You realize I've almost died getting shot right?" Poetry said, struggling to find a first aid kit.
"Right, sorry... How did you survive?" I ask, attempting to change the subject.
"After Ultron, SHIELD took me back to base and did stuff to me. I don't remember what, it was weeks before I woke up, but once I did they transferred me to where we just were."
"Oh, that makes sense because SHIELD-" I start to say.
"Is HYDRA, yes I know" he sighed, still looking for a first aid kit.
"Ok forget it!" I say lifting off my tank top, tearing it into strips, and fastening them onto my wounds. "How did you know what to do?" Pietro asked, almost in surprise. "It's called living with a jackass who likes to drink and abuse" I scoff.
"What-"
"Let's just sleep, the faster the night is over the quicker Aaron will come and we can get home," I say, rolling over onto my side on the broken couch, avoiding the subject.
"Very well" he spoke as he walked into the other room.

Slumber did not arrive, I understand I did not suffer much, but flashbacks and images of what had occurred haunted me. I was fine. It was just another thing I swept under the rug.
"I am fine and I will be fine."

My mind thought back to when I was with the Avengers, a loving home, people who would do anything to protect me, making sure I felt comfortable and like I belonged. I knew they were looking for me...I hope

Morning came, Pietro left to go "buy" some new clothes to disguise ourselves along with getting some food.
*knock, knock*
"Fuck! Uhh, think Y/n think!"
But it was too late, the door swung open, and in came 2 agents and...Aaron! All beat up. I was slumped up in the corner of the makeshift "living room" between the "kitchen". Strangely, they didn't see me, they stormed in searching for us. But they got nothing.
"WHERE ARE THEY TRAITOR!" one of the men yelled that was in uniform, both the men were tall and covered head to toe in protective gear.
"As you can see they aren't here Wyatt" Aaron tried to say, cracking a joke. Not being amused, he walked up to Aaron grabbing a fist of his hair, pulling his head back "I can see that jackass" he spat.
"They're not here, check the surrounding areas and let me know if you see anything!" he yelled
"Yes sir, what would you like me to do about him?" the other man spoke, gesturing his eyes at Aaron. "Kill. Him," he smirked, walking out.

My body and heart froze, as I watched the man shoot Aaron at least 6 times and just leave him there. As soon as I could no longer hear footsteps I ran to Aaron.
"Oh my God! Oh my God, oh my god" I whispered
"Y-y/n? What are you doing? Where were you?" he stuttered as blood gushed out of his body faster than I could put pressure on.
"I was here the whole time, oh Aaron what did they do to you?" as tears started forming in my eyes.
"The east wing cameras, I forgot they- they fixed them" as he coughed up blood. "Hey, hey stay with me!" putting pressure on his wounds as much as I could. "Left pocket..." he uttered. Quickly doing as he says, I looked into all his left side pockets, then found a piece of paper. Opening the paper was all the codes and location of different HYDRA bases along with information about the stuff they are planning.
"I'm not going to make it, give this to captain Rogers, he's the only one you can truly trust. You still have the map right?" he asked as I nodded. "Good, go home..." he whispered as his body gave out.

Something in that moment changed me, I was not going to give up, not until I got revenge for Aaron. I wouldn't be sitting at his lifeless body, drenched in his blood, free, if it wasn't for him.
