General POV::

We can see a building which is covered in snow near the mountain range, as we go inside the building we can see lot's of girls aging from 4-15 eating in a cafeteria.

Now this is not an orphanage or any kind of boarding school for the rich young misses, this place is the Red Room Academy of the Soviet Union, for training girl's from their childhood in Spy craft, Assassination, and espionage as Black Widows.

As we move on through the arched hallway without stoping we'll arrive at an office with a name plate saying "Madame B". As we enter the office, we can see a man with a muscular figure and a woman with a slender figure talking with each other, the man is Dreykov and the woman is Madame B. Dreykov is a high-ranking Soviet Armed Forces officer and overseer of the Red Room, a top-secret Soviet training program that turned young women into the world's deadliest spies.

Madame B. is responsible for training female assassins at a Red Room facility alongside Dreykov.

"In this month the dissolution of Soviet Union will be declared, with it the KGB will also be dissolved. Will the Red Room also be dissolved just like the other Soviet agency, Dreykov?"

"Yes, you are right, dissolution of Soviet Union is imminent and with it KGB will aslo be disbanded, then they'll come after the other agency, including our Black Widow program. But, I won't allow them to lay a hand on our program we'll be moving in two weeks time from here for going off the grid."

"Won't they suspect you if we do that? By a link they'll come after me to, and I don't want that at all."

"Yes they'll suspect me if I also go off the grid, but I'm not, as I'll be with the new government so you don't have to worry about the search for Red Room, I'll make them believe that it's dissolved and agent's are under my control."

"mmmm... that'll be good."

"so that's that, and what about the recruit I gave you 7 years back, is she any good or is a bad egg?"

"Are you you sure about her being a fine Black Widow, because all I can see is unwillingness to do the training except for ballet and she's only doing the training because of the death threats issued by the protocol."

"I know. She was hand picked by me as she had the best genes, I would say she would put the other widows in shame that's for sure"

"That's an understatement, she'll be the ultimate widow for sure but only if she put her heart into the training."

"True, mmm.... is she interacting with other trainees or still isolating herself?"

"She's interacting alright, not for a partner but for sister figure for her to enjoy her family time. She's still yearning for a family you know, we have to eliminate it in the bud or it'll effect in her training and missions."

"She wants a family huh... mmm... we'll give her what she want and we will take it back once this is all over and give her a valuable lesson that not everything is free in the world."

"What's the event?"

"Infiltration to one of the secure agency in the world, a family of four, parents working undercover and their daughters who will be from our program. The mother figure will be one of the widow who is technological researcher and father figure will be Soviet Union's super soldier."

"So one of the daughter will be our problem child, and the other one?"

"Yes that girl will be the eldest and the youngest is only 2 years old now, they will be starting to be like family from December next year. And their mission will start from that day onwards. The eldest and the parents will have a debriefing together from February next year, the youngest will be adopted by them making her think that the family is for real."

"Mmmm hmmm that's a plan now, but why that place of all the places if you don't mind me asking?"

"Because they have something that we can use to control the widows, which will help us in the long run, so that's the main objective and side objective is to destroy that base because it have our old enemy in there, so that's a plus."

As they continued talking about world domination and whatnot, they didn't know that they're Institute was being infiltrated by shadow army. From the 30 shadows, 20 of them branched away from the 30 soldiers and moved towards Dreykov and Mdame B. Ten shadow soldiers for each of the top two superiors of the Institute, without their knowledge entered their shadows as per the instructions given by Ace before letting them go to Russia. The remaining ten shadow soldiers moved towards another end of the Institute towards a girl of age 7, with height of 4'3, a red-arubun hair, an adorable face, with blue eyes and most of the body covered in scars that came from a battle couple of minutes ago. She was waiting for her turn for healing her body and to get rid of the scars on her, as she was so concentrated on her thoughts she didn't see shadow soldiers entering into her shadow. As she was in her dream land with her Imaginary family, she didn't hear her name being called. Getting no response from the trainee, the trainer responsible for the healing process came out of the room and seeing the trainee with a dazed face sitting made her boil with anger. She strode towards her position and shouted at the trainee with all she got " What are you day dreaming about trainee" hearing this the little girl jumped from her sitting position and stood ther battle ready. Seeing this the trainer admonished her by saying "We don't get to dream about anything trainee, we do what our superiors say's to do and we think what they want to think, you got that? Because there'll be no next time for you, if this happens again you'll be going out of the Institute in a body bag, now move along"

Hearing this the girl turned pale, because she didn't want to die before she got her dream fulfilled. So with some resolve to escape from this hell hole of an Institute as soon as possible she moved to the healing chamber.

After healing her battle scars she got back to her room which only had a single bed with no windows and metal door with a slider for food. As soon as she entered ger room it was locked from outside for not letting her escape, seeing the dark room makes her remember the past 6 years here she had to suffer so much from crying and having nightmares of what will happen tomorrow. As she was thinking about the horrible things done to her, her shadow moved and the shadow army came out of it, seeing some shadowy figures abruptly in her room almost made her lunge at them but her instinct that have been drilled in to her by the Institute she they were friendly, but she doesn't know these figures and never seen them either. As she was about to ask who they were she suddenly lost her conscious, seeing their target going to fall on the ground one of the shadow soldier moved in and took her in his arms and put her on the bed, as the shadow placed on her bed other shadows started to merge with the shadow of the girl, to protect her from her shadow.

As the girl started to open her eyes, she was blinded by the light. She was trying to adapt to the light she heard a sweet tender voice saying

"Natalia Alianovna " Natasha " Romanoff, are you alright?"

Hearing the voice Natasha losses her alertness knowing that the voice is a friendly just like the shadows, so replies "The light is too bright I can't see anything" Then she hears a snap which makes the light dim to the level where she can see. As she look around she see a woman clad in golden cloud looking at her.

"Am I dead? Did the shadow figures kill me?"

"No, you are not dead and those figures came to rescue you from there. But I pulled you in here for letting you know what would happen if you are not rescued, and after seeing that you can chose to stick with the memories I show you or you can opt to just forget it, alright."

Hearing all this Natasha was astonished, knowing that somebody out there is trying to save her from that hell hole. Then she asked the question that has been in her head "Who are you miss?"

"Me, I'm God or The One Above All as everybody call me. And no I'm not a female nor a male. I'm what you want to think me as, you see me as a woman because of yor yearning of a mother, to another kid I was a golden cloud in humanoid shape. You get the gist of it right?"

Understanding that the figure in front of her is God her eyes go wide and jaw drop down as far as it could by a 7year old girl. Seeing her like this made TOAA chuckle bringing her out of her surprise. And immediately she pleas in front of the God by kneeling "Pleas God free me from that place and give me a family so I can be happy.... please" say's crying like there's no tomorrow, knowing that this was her only chance to change her life for good.

"You know, the shadows were sent to get you out of that place fast as possible, but I wanted to show you what would have happened if they didn't come. So wipe the tears and close your eyes to see what would have transpired if they didn't rescue you."

Natasha hearing this steels her heart and wipe her tears and closed her eyes to see the events where she would be in the red room.
