she went back up on her toes, on relevé. she then went into a plié, spinning as she did the same movements over again with ease. the other girls watched as her and natalia danced in the blue leotard. alexandria lost her balance, falling out of relevé.

"again!" mademe yelled, natalia stopping immediately. she looked at alexandria, who was stonefaced.

"извините мадам"

im sorry madame

so they began again, on their toes and they spun in their pointe shoes.

a man in a suit, weapons strapped on him walked into the room. the most visible thing to alexandria was the glistening metal arm. he took off two handguns from his suit, standing infront of the bullseye

"Солдат, продемонстрировать"

soldat, demonstrates

madame said, him holding a gun in both hands. he went back and forth, switching arms as he hit bullseye every time.

natalia was the first to go, hitting the target almost every time, coming very close the last time.

"молодец, наталья"

"молодец, наталья"

well done, natalia

alexandria went next, switching arms as she shot the target. she missed the bullseye a lot more, madame yelling at her. she flinched slightly, but nodding at her with no emotion. the soldier came up behind her, bringing her right arm up. he adjusted her stance, his face getting close to her neck, alexandria feeling his steady breathing.

"целиться. стрелять."

aim. shoot.

his voice was deep and grainy, like he had been yelling earlier. the soldier stepped back and stood behind her, watching her switch arms as she shot the target every time. she put the guns down, madame smiling at her.

"молодец александрия"

well done alexandria

she gave a small nod, her looking at the solider. he gave her a gesture of some sort, letting her know she did well.

"хорошая работа александрия"

good job alexandria

she thanked him, just above a whisper, handing him the guns as she walked back to stand next to natalia. she leaned over a bit, nudging alexandria's side.

"nice job lex." natalia smiled, the two's attention going to the next girl, who had to be fifteen started shooting the target. yet she couldn't help steal a few glances at the soldier with the metal arm.

twelve years after the red room

instead of natalia romanova and alexandria markov, they were now know as natasha romanoff and alexa micheals. the two were an inseparable pair as they did others dirty work.

the black widow and the white shadow's kills reached into the hundreds. killing people had little to no affect on natasha, on the outside or inside. alexa, on the other hand, was the complete opposite. the red room had broken her and natasha, but natasha was way better at hiding that.

it ate at her everyday, not knowing if the people she was killing were innocent or bad. she rarely talked to natasha about it, always getting the same response.

"as long we aren't being killed, it shouldn't matter."

an agent with a bow and arrow was sent to kill the two, yet he made a different call. he brought them to SHIELD, alexa finally knowing she was with the good guys. it kept her awake at night, wondering if her old organization would ever find her. it terrified her.

when loki threatened war, natasha was sent to bring in doctor banner and alexa was sent with agent phil coulson to bring in tony stark. she had then met captain america, who was frozen for seventy years. the two got close quick, them forming a friendship.

she met thor odinson, the god of thunder and loki's brother. she quickly became friends with thor, doctor bruce banner and tony stark, her always being very interested in all things space and science.

clint barton was like her brother. he, natasha and alexa became very close throughout the years before the battle of new york. they swore that nobody knows what happens in budapest. ever.

the team became her best friends. her family. she was happy, the first time in a very, very long time.
