Chapter 0094: Prison Break

After a while of thick silence, "Well, whatever. Now, can you call in your heavy-hitter Avenger friends to take care of the Red Room?" Yelena asked.

"What do you mean, heavy-hitter?" Nat asked.

"You know… Someone who can track down Dreykov, do something about the mind control issue, and take care of everything. I doubt a god that can shoot lightning or even Tony Stark would have any issue taking care of a bunch of overtrained assassins and their controller." Yelena said with an expectant edge in her tone.

"Well… We're not really on talking terms right now." Nat was a little embarrassed.

"This day just keeps getting better and better." Yelena rolled her eyes.

"Come on, baby sis. Let's get something to drink." Natasha said, much to Yelena's surprise who turned to her with a wide-eyed look, "What?" Nat asked Yelena.

"I thought you didn't think of me as your baby sister…" She said.

"What gave you that impression?" Nat asked with amusement. She liked seeing Yelena's surprise.

"I don't know. You never tried to contact me after you left." Yelena said, looking up at the starry night sky.

"Here." Nat handed her a bottle of beer, "I thought that you wouldn't want to meet me again. I thought that after getting out, you'd settled down in some peaceful town…" She said.

"Come on, sis. Killers like us don't get that…" Yelena said as she took a sip.

"I guess so… You wanna take down the Red Room?" Nat asked casually.

"It's going to be a pain…" Yelena said.

"It'll be fine. We can treat this as an adventure." Nat said, "A sisters' bonding experience…"

"You're serious?" Yelena looked at Nat.

"Dead serious. Since I failed last time, the least I could do is finish the job." Nat said.

"I'm in…" Yelena had a little emotional look on her face, "You've changed sis… You seem a bit more… I don't know. Unrestrained? It's like you have some sort of confidence that you can take care of whatever the world throws at you." Yelena said something that she'd just noticed.

"Is that so?" Nat smiled. Anyone with the power that she has would get an innate confidence that would let her act in such a manner.

"Yeah. It's like you're so much more… living." Yelena said.

"What's that supposed to mean?" Nat asked while looking at Yelena with an offended look.

"I didn't mean it that way… Well, I kinda did. But that's because you seemed so serious all the time. Only caring for the mission and shit like that. You never even wanted to acknowledge me as your sister…" Yelena wasn't sure what she was saying. But she was just pouring her heart out for Natasha.

"I guess…" Nat was about speak, but Yelena continued, "And what's with your posing?"

"What?" Nat was confused.

"Every time I see you in some magazine or in the news you're doing some sort of badass pose… Like, like this." Yelena got up from the hood of the car that they were leaning on and did Natasha's signature superhero pose where she was bending down, putting her curves fully on display with one hand extended to the side and the other on the ground.

Nat looked at Yelena who was trying to imitate her and chuckled getting up from the car and walking to her.

"See this is what I was—" Yelena said as she was about to get up and just at that, she felt Natasha spanking her ass.

"Hey!" She jumped and looked at Natasha.

"Don't make fun of your big sister. I like posing 'cause it looks cool." Nat said and wrapped her arm around Yelena's neck, pulling her back to lean on the car.

"What a bully…" Yelena said with a grumbling tone.

"So, back to the important stuff, where is the Red Room?" Nat asked, hoping that Yelena would have the needed information.

"About that… No one knows. We were sedated before being brought there and then sedated when we were deployed. There's no information about its or Dreykov's location. He's pulled all the stops to hide his tracks." Yelena told Nat.

Nat went deep in thought for a few seconds before saying, "I have an idea about someone who might know…"

…

In a Russian prison, in the middle of the snowy mountains.

Alexei Shostakov was telling the other prisoners baseless stories about his time as the Red Guardian— A cheap rip-off of Captain America that was made by Dreykov. He was exaggerating and jesting to get people to pay attention to him and fill his vanity.

He was a vain, hopeless person who'd given up on himself. The biggest indicator of this was how out of shape he'd gotten. He was an enhanced super soldier for crying out loud. It should be practically impossible for these guys to have bad physiques. But this guy had done it.

-Alexei Shostakov. Mail delivery!- There was an announcement from the public speakers. It was repeated three times as Alexi got up from his seat and stopped the arm wrestling match that he was having.

"I'll be back. There are more tales of the Red Guardian for you all!" He screamed out to his inmates, expecting them all to start cheering, but all he got was a few weak reactions. But that didn't affect him. He was as dense as they came.

He went to pick up the package at the collector's area.

"There's the Red Guardian." The guard who was manning the area had a tone of slight derision as he looked at Alexi while his partner that was sitting beside him was stuffing his face. They were both eating some sort of creamy doughnuts.

"In the return letters to your fans, tell them to add some more sugar, these aren't as sweet as I like them." He told Alexi as he passed a stack of letters and something wrapped in newspapers to Alexi.

Looking at the two guards, Alexi was burning with fury, but he didn't say anything. He'd grown all too familiar with this scene and it had stopped getting a reaction out of him by now.

He grabbed his stack and gift and walked to the sitting area to see what it was all about. Unwrapping the newspapers, what was revealed was an action figurine of the Red Guardian. Looking at it, Alexi got a little nostalgic. He started playing with it, there was a little string to pull back and unwind, so Alexi unwound that string, expecting the figurine to move. But instead, its head popped off, and hidden inside that head was a tiny earpiece.

"Well this just got interesting…" Alexi had a smile on his face as he looked around and discretely put that earpiece into his ear.

-Today's your lucky day, Alexi.- He heard a woman's voice from the other side.

-Who is this?- He asked.

-Move to the east side of the building.- All he heard were instructions. And just like that, the hopeless and vain fucker got some hope in life. He looked at the two guards that had made fun of him for years with a dark look and attacked them.

At the same time, there were loud explosions all over the prison, destroying key locations.

…

In a helicopter, a few hundred meters above the prison that Alexi was currently in, Natasha and Yelena were talking.

"Do you just keep bombs with you?" Yelena asked Natasha as she saw the explosions that just took out the key locations of the prison.

Nat exercised her right to remain silent.

"He won't be able to make it out himself. I'll go down to help out." Nat changed the topic of the conversation.

"I'll lower us." Yelena said, but Nat stopped her, "No need." She said and get up from the co-pilot seat. She put down the aviation headsets and went opened the door that was on her side.

"Natasha…" Yelena was scared.

"Just watch me, Baby sis…" Nat said while giving Yelena a cheeky look as she jumped down from the helicopter hundreds of meters up in the air.

Mid-air, her clothes started morphing into her White Knight persona.

[Hey, I have an idea. Do Thor's pose. I could make you a hammer.] Alex said in her head.

[Nah. It'll feel like a cheap copy. I'll just go with my usual pose. You have the electric burst ready, right?] Nat told him.

[Yep, you don't have to worry.] Alex said as clouds started gathering above in the sky. At the same time, Alex noticed something, [Also, just thought I should mention, we're on a time crunch. Those explosions that I rigged triggered an avalanche and it's coming down the mountain with an unholy speed.] Alex told her and Nat's head went in the direction Alex was referring.

[Fuck…] Nat said as she focused on nailing her landing right in the center of the prison.

Just as she was close enough to the ground, invisible tentacles started extending from her body and slowed her descent just enough that she would be fine after landing. And just as Nat landed on the ground, a huge bolt of lightning fell directly on her and an electric explosion ensued, frying all of the electronics in the prison.
