Long Way From Home

They Came

Pepper was in her office looking out the window, when the immigration people came for Natasha. Pepper immediately ran to warn her friend.

Natasha was working out in her living room, when Pepper barged in. "Hello Pepper."

"Nat, the immigration people are here." Pepper warned.

Steve comes out of the bedroom, "Hey Pepper."

Pepper looks at Steve and repeats, "Immigration is here!"

Steve understood and nodded, as he took Natasha's hand.

Pepper opens the door to the people, "Hi…"

"Mrs. Potts," one said as he waved a paper in front of Pepper's face, "we are here for Natasha Romanoff."

"Of course, she's not here." Pepper sighs. "She's on a mission."

"It's okay, Pepper," Natasha breathed as Pepper steps out of the way, "thanks but I'll handle this."

Pepper couldn't help but worry as Natasha was handcuffed and taken away. Natasha's tears poured out of her eyes, "Steve, I love you."

"I'll get you out." Steve promised as he hugs her.

"Take care of my daughter, please!" Natasha begged, "Steve, take care of our daughter."

Pepper tears up watching Natasha get drag away. Pepper immediately got Anya on the phone.
