TW: mention of knives, cuts and blood and violence 

Y/n POV:

"You are gonna give us all the information we want." he gave me a creepy smile and slowly opened the bag, the blonde guy was holding.

"And what makes you think I'll do that?" I raised one eyebrow and looked at him.

"You will. Let that be my worry, sweetheart" he said while pulling out a short knife out of the bag.

I was about to kick the guys and escape when I noticed how weak my limbs were. I could barely move my legs and before I knew it two guys were holding me down while the other one slowly drew the knife over my body.

"Now you're gonna answer me my questions." he cut into my left arm and I tried my best to hide the pain.

"Where does director Fury keep his secret information?" now he held the knife up to my chin lifting my head with it.

"What do you need to know that for?" I looked him dead in the eye.

"Let's just say he has something that belongs to us and we want it back" he smirked at me and moved the knife down to my stomach. "Now answer me"

"I'm not telling you anything. You'll have to kill me." I stared at him, still trying to figure out who he was.

"So stubborn", he took the knife and cut a cross into my stomach so I could feel the warm blood run down my body. It wasn't deep enough to kill me but I'd need stitches.

He then put the knife down and slapped me across my face so I could feel a hot, red mark forming.

Natasha POV:

We couldn't find her. Tony and Bruce tried tracking her phone with no results. It's been four days now and I was starting to get worried. 

I felt like it was all my fault. I shouldn't have been so harsh with her and now she's missing. She could be anywhere and I know that Hydra is still after her.

"You should get some rest and maybe eat something. We will find her and she's strong. She will be fine." Steve came up to me.

"No Steve! It's my fault she's gone so I'm not just gonna sit around and do nothing while waiting  for her to magically come back!"  I turned around, grabbed my coat and walked away.

"Where are you going?"

"Find Y/n" I said before walking of.

I walked through the streets of New York looking into every little alley in the hope to find her but also dreading the thought of possibly finding her dead body tossed on the ground.

My way through the streets was lit by millions of Christmas lights. After all it was Christmas eve tomorrow.

I stopped and looked at the huge tree in Rockefeller center with all these people running around in the annual holiday stress and all the colorful lights and decoration. Y/n loves Christmas. It was never really my thing but whenever we spent the holidays together I was happy.

I remembered that one Christmas we were on a mission together. Y/n insisted to get at least a small tree in the apartment where we stayed at and despite all my objections she got one and it turned out to be the best Christmas I ever had even tho the tree was destroyed the next day when we fought our target. 

I smiled a little but the thought of never seeing her sweet, happy smile on Christmas again crushed me. I had to find her.

Y/n POV:

I slowly started to feel my legs again. Whatever they gave me must have worn of. 

"That's all you can?" I laughed "Come on"
