"Tony..."
You stared at the television set in the shop window, clutching the strings of your hoodie as though you could feel an impending doom creeping up on you. Your best friend's picture was all over the news, his disappearance stirring the public's panic as a blurry clip sent in by a random citizen that managed to capture a video of the alien attack played. There was Tony and three other men, their backs to you, two of them holding yellow holographic shields as he fought the biggest, ugliest looking thing you've ever seen. You turned away, hiking your hood up and keeping your eyes on the ground as you walked along the streets, the night air nipping at your nose.
It had been awhile since you'd seen Tony.
Since you'd seen Steve and Nat and Sam.
Bucky.
Ever since he went back in cryo, you'd given up the whole Avenger shebang, living the life of an outlaw hiding in plain sight. You had Steve drop you in Washington D.C. where you found yourself an apartment with an alias.
Right under the nose of the highest authority there was, a personal joke Tony would have appreciated. A dark cloud stormed through your thoughts at what could have happened to him and you shook them away.
"Nothing can kill that guy." You muttered, shoving your hands into your jacket pockets.
"Talking all to your lonesome, I see." You whirled around, holding the gun you had hidden under your shirt to the person's forehead.
"Nat?" She grinned. "You're blonde." You said, looking her over. "You're going crazy."
The both of you stared at each other silently before you smiled, putting away your gun and moving to give her a hug. "I missed you." You said, squeezing her tightly before stepping back.
"I missed you, too. Leaving me with the boys is a job I almost couldn't handle."
"Thought I was supposed to be leaving you in good hands." You teased. "Where's Wanda?"
"She went off the grid with Vision. We just found them in Scotland."
Her hesitation was enough to make you suspicious, but you kept the conversation casual, crossing your arms and nodding. "So you're getting the team back together? To find Tony?" Nat shook her head.
"Those same aliens tried to kill Vision. At this point, it'd be a miracle if we find him, Y/N. This is something bigger than New York." She said, her hand reaching out to you.
You could see the desperation in her eyes. Natasha never asked for anything and this was as close as she was going to get.
"And yet the world keeps spinning. I said I was done, Nat. This is it for me." "Y/N.."
