Till Death Do Us Party

by SailorSilvanesti

S.H.I.E.L.D. has rules for a reason, and every single one of them has a hard-won, hard-learned lesson behind it. [Prompt; Random]

Disclaimer: I do not own the Avenger or any associated Characters.

This was a random story written for a Vague Prompt: I asked for an opening to a story of any kind, and I'd finish it.

Given Opening: 'She froze, hearing the door creak open…'

Here's what I did with it.

She froze, hearing the door creak open…

Her heart trembled weakly within the heaving breast, nearly jolting from her chest the very moment her friends and family leapt from various crevices of the suddenly enlightened lounge room with the word, 'Surprise!' upon every one of their lips…

Instinctively, her finger tightened about the trigger… and in an instant, when the hail of bullets from her semi-automatic ceased, remained the only living being in the room.

…that was the last time anyone at S.H.I.E.L.D. tried to throw Natasha a Birthday Party…
