Loving Marianna Book Two

Chapter Twenty- Eight

Warning: violence

Natasha POV
Stronger than me? Who the fuck does she think she is? I trained her siren ass! I take out my phone and text Tony telling him Marianna insisted on splitting up, she's gonna be in so much trouble now. In a few moments there's a drone flying over my head and I instinctually go to shoot it out of the air until I see the S for Stark and roll my eyes putting my gun away, in the next moment they're all pushing through one of Stephens portals Tony at the front guiding the drone into the building.

"She's not in there Romanoff." Tony says storming into the building careful not to land his suit keeping himself hovering.

"What the fuck do you mean?!" I ask frantically following after Tony not caring anymore.

"She's. Not. Here." Tony says annoyed, fear clear in his eyes.

"Are you sure she came in here Nat? Not a different building?" Bruce asks hands shaking. I open my mouth to speak but can't my heart race picking up.

"Natasha, you need to tell us what happened." Wanda says gently grabbing my hands slightly calming me down.

"I- I don't know, she came inside of here and told me to keep watch. I wanted to reverse our roles b-but you know Marianna, she's so stubborn and                p- protective, I shouldn't have let her go alone." I say burying my head in my hands. Wanda wraps her arms around me looking around at everyone else not sure what to do.

"I'm sorry." I say straightening up wiping my face and quickly putting on my mask. Wanda continues to hold me gently but I pull myself together so I can do what I have to do to figure out what the fuck just happened to Marianna.

"The drone found a trail of blood but it's not hers."

"How do you know that?" Peter (Q) asks.

"I know her blood type and my handy dandy drone here confirmed it is not her blood." Tony explains, all of visibly relaxing a bit.

"That's kind of weird." Scott says making everyone chuckle easing us even more.

"I'm her husband it's not weird, you don't know her blood type? Hell I know your blood type." Tony says emphasizing your. Scott's brows furrow looking slightly concerned over to Peter (P).

"What else did your drone tell you Stark?" Steve asks stoic and worried as ever.

"Not much, there's nothing but rats and dirt cap."

"It recorded right? Show us the video." I say and Tony nods pulling up the video expanding the hologram in the air so we can all see.

"T-this doesn't mean something bad HAD to have happened to her." Peter (P) says nervously.

"Peter why don't I bring you home." Loki says gently resting his hands on Peters shoulders. He shrugs them off turning to look at him.

"Don't treat me like a kid. She's my wife, and Matteo is my kid too. I'm a man now, don't treat me like any less especially when it comes to my wife." Loki holds up his hands laying off.

"We don't have time for this shit." Bucky says pulling up his Winter Solider mask spinning his gun so it's in his hands now and storms into the building kicking the door down wasting no time searching the place himself. We follow him inside everyone getting their weapons or magic ready, Pietro waiting outside to keep watch much to his dismay.

All of a sudden we hear a robotic voice I don't recognize.

"Person not recognized."

"Run!" Peter (P) screams scooping Gamora and Clint into his arms swinging out. He doesn't need to tell me twice as I begin hearing a slight beeping throwing myself out of the closest window. I make it only a few feet down before the building explodes forcing my body down faster from the pressure the fire burning part of my back. As soon as I hit the ground I roll so I don't get hurt and stand again looking around to make sure everyone is alright.

Loki, T'challa and Scott, teleport next to me as Stephen and the rest of the people who could get out quick enough fall from a portal. Tony emerges from the building Wanda calmly following behind her magic acting as a shield.

"Everyone accounted for?" I say looking around making sure everyone is no worse for wear. All of a sudden people in matching black guard outfits emerge from all around us.

"I suggest you tell me where my wife is if you want me to kill you quickly." Vision says his stone glaring with power. They fix their guns and begin shooting at us Wanda immediately protecting us with her shield as we move in on them.

Marianna POV
My whole body feels like shit that voltage must have been extreme, they definitely killed any marine life around. I try to get up peeling open my heavy eyes but am restrained. I go to rip myself out of them but find that I can't. I go to sing trying to pull water from the air but the water doesn't heed my command. My throat grows even drier and I swallow hard trying to keep my cool fighting harder against the restraints. I look down and realize I'm still in my siren form unable to shift back to my human appearance.

"Looks like the runner is awake." The woman who shot me says standing over me. I respond in siren tongue and she smirks tilting her head.

"That's cute honey, this is going to be sooo much fun after you nearly busted my ear drums out bitch." I smile and she smacks me in the face turning my head, I slowly crane my neck back and spit in her face. She wipes it off angrily and I smirk sticking into it my tongue.

"I changed my mind I don't want to take my time with this one, you're going to tell me where Maurice is or we'll leave you with just the bare minimum to live. Stripping you for your parts." She says dragging her nail down my tail.

"Ah sweet Maurice, literally. His flesh was on the sweeter side though slightly chewy from all that muscle y'know." I laugh making her elbow me multiple times in the mouth.

"We're ready." A man says coming to put anesthesia on me.

"No we're keeping this one awake. Go ahead and get them to bring the other prisoner in here while we get started." She orders. The doctor nods and I give him a pleading look which is swiftly ignored.

He picks up his scalpel and begins cutting into the base of my tail ignoring my screaming and attempts at thrashing around I eventually can't fight anymore losing a massive amount of blood only able to scream and cry as the doctor finally hits my bone.

"Hand me the saw."
