This was Mara's first time on a quinjet, normally only buying cheap second class tickets. This was far from a budget airline. It looked like a very futuristic airplane that was also way quicker than a regular one. 

They arrived at Leipzig Airport in a matter of five hours. "We have arrived!" Tony exclaimed, seeming a little too excited considering the situation at hand. 

He filled Mara in on the whole 'Civil War' situation and to be honest if it wasn't for Mara owing a debt to Tony, she would have probably agreed with Captain America.

"Let's go meet everyone that is on team Iron Man, shall we?" He asked with a toothy grin. 'He really does like slapping his name on everything' Mara thought. She just nodded in response and they made their way over to a small group of people. 

Many of them looked unfamiliar to Mara, except for one. The infamous Black Widow, a well-known assassin in Mara's world. She was short than Mara imagined, not really understanding how a woman of such small stature could do the infamous things she is known for.

She was not surprised that Natasha was so easily able to seduce her targets, with her striking red hair and emerald green eyes. She was certainly easy to believe and trust. Mara made a mental note to be cautious around her, as she did not want to be manipulated.

"So let's get this introduction over with. Mara these are Rhodes, Vision, Spider-Man, or Peter as you can call him, Natasha and King T'Challa, AKA the Black Panther." Tony said. Mara took in everyone and nodded at them.

"Team, this is Mara Morozov, trained killing machine." Tony introduces Mara. It was certainly not an attractive introduction, but it did describe her correctly. The Avengers did not seem to understand why they needed Mara and if they could even trust her.

Peter looked at Mara and suddenly yelled "WOW. Your leg! It's made of metal! That looks so cool". Mara sighed as she looked down at her right leg. Instead of a regular leg made of flesh, bone and tissue, hers was a prothetic made of metal. 

It was similar to the arm of the Winter Soldier, but her leg could be used as a weapon as well. It could function as a blade, where with one kick, she could decapitate her target if need be.

She usually tried to hide it, but apparently did not do a sufficient job this time around. "Yes, that would be correct" she answered dryly, trying to ignore all the stares her leg was getting. 

Mara felt uncomfortable, as she was a lone wolf who did not work well with others. She was hardly ever around this many people at once. When she works alone, she has full control. Now, she was dependent on others as well, which she did not like.

"Who exactly are we up against?" She decided to ask after an awkward silence. "Right, you aren't really up to speed on all the newbies." Tony chuckled, clearly amused with himself at the use of that term. 

Natasha decided to answer for him. "We're up against the Winter Soldier, Captain America, Wanda Maximoff, the Falcon, Hawkeye, and Ant-Man." Mara was a little stunned by hearing that the Winter Soldier was suddenly in a team with at least half of the Avengers. 

He was considered a champion of Hydra, someone who every soldier strived to even come close to in their training. She never imagined him to work with Hydra's enemy.

"Alright, enough chit-chat, we have a captain and soldier to catch" Tony said, stopping the introduction. "Let's split up. Mara, you stay with Nat and follow her lead." 

Mara was not used to following orders since her escape from Hydra. She ignored her intuition to protest and walked after the Black Widow, not knowing what to expect from this 'civil war'.
