'Do you solemnly swear to tell the truth the whole truth and nothing but the truth?'

'I do.' Tasha found it ironic that they made her swear over a bible. After everything she had done, it would not be god she should fear, but rather the opposite.

'Why haven't we yet heard from Captain Rogers?' the committee leader began.

Tasha sighed. Here we go. She didnt know where Steve was, but they didnt know that. Lucky for her, they would just think she was being annoying.

'I don't know what's left left for him to say. I think the rock in the middle of the Potomac made his point fairly eloquently.'

'Well, he could explain how this country's expected to maintain its national security now that he and you have laid waste our intelligence apparatus.'

You're the ones charged with running the country, not him. You figure it out, she thought.

Instead, she said, 'HYDRA was selling you lies, not intelligence.'

'Many of which you seem to have had a personal hand in telling.'

'Agent, you should know that there are some on this committee who feel, given your service record, both for this country and against it, that you belong in a penitentiary, not mouthing off on Capitol Hill.' Tasha ground her teeth, but didnt say anything. It was her, after all, that released that information.

'You're not gonna put me in a prison. You're not gonna put any of us in a prison. You know why?'

'Do enlighten us.' The man asked, smugly

'Because you need us. Yes, the world is a vulnerable place, and yes, we helped make it that way. But we're also the ones best qualified to defend it. So if you want to arrest me, arrest me. You'll know where to find me.'

Tasha had lied, it's what she does, and an oath over a bible wasn't going to change that. The truth was, they were going to arrest her. They knew it, she knew it, they just didnt know she knew.

As they placed the handcuffs on her wrists, Tasha rolled her eyes at the triumph on their faces. 'They had caught the infamous Black Widow.' No, she was just coming quietly.

Maria stepped out into the cold, New York, evening air, and pulled her jacket tighter around herself. She noticed movement behind her, and she sped up, pulling out her phone. She looked to her left, and saw something lurking in the shadows. Would these people never leave her alone?, she thought.

Just as she was about to turn on her phone to alert Stark, she heard a 'Freeze!' Maria Hill paused, and turned to the call. Standing in front of her, stood the commanding officer of the police force that had been previously sent to protect her.

'Looks like everybody is changing sides these days,' She muttered to herself. She raised her hands, now surrounded but 10 men, each carrying a sidearm. At least they didnt doubt her abilities, she thought with a smug smile.

She didnt let the smirk drop as they read her rights, cuffed her, and sent into the back of a police car. She knew it unnerved them, and, well, she liked to mess with them. They were arresting her after all, although, they werent doing a very good job. It was almost like they were begging her to escape, but she didnt. She had nothing to hide.

The drive to the Police station was uneventful. Maria sat in the back, quietly humming to herself, only to unnerve them further. It was working, they had placed Maria in the back with two other police officers, and as she hummed, she saw both their hands, straying to their guns, as if expecting an attack. She let out a low chuckle, before she went back to humming for the rest of the drive.

Once they reached the station, she was taken immediately by 3 men to the cells, where she was promptly locked inside. Maria sat on the bare bed in her cell and began to hum again.

She heard a laugh from the cell next to hers, and then a familiar voice.

'I see you've been scaring the officers. I forgot you used to do that.'

Maria looked at the cell next to hers and squinted in the dark light. She could just see a slim woman, mirroring her position in her own cell.

'Natasha Romanov, what did you do?!'

Tasha chuckled again, before replying, 'Nothing! I might of heard that they were planning your arrest and I figured you could use the company.'

Maria could practically feel the grin radiating from Tasha.

'Who'd you hear it from? About my arrest, I would have figured that was top secret.'

'Well you do think highly of yourself, don't you?' Tasha teased.

'You know what I mean.' she grumbled.

Tasha relented. 'I tapped into the committee's calls days ago, heard them discussing it with the head of the force. He, by the way, seemed reluctant. Anyway, a few well placed words to the committee, you know, undermine their authority, annoying levels of arrogance, and I end up right here beside you.'

Maria sighed, before asking, 'And for what, because I could use the company?'

'Why is that so hard to believe? You are actually fun to be around, and this way, the government is actually protecting me from my enemies. And besides, you wouldn't last long without ordering someone about, and I don't want to to tell Fury why his favorite minion broke,' Tasha said, starting off serious, before ending with a tease.

Maria laughed, before asking, 'So, when are we gonna get out of here?'

'Oh Maria, so eager to become fugitives. Let's chill for a while, have a rest from all the chaos.'

Maria gave Natasha a glare.

'Tasha. Hydra-'

'Is not our problem.' Tasha finished. 'For once, it is not your job to clean up Fury's mess! The rest of the team are out there, they can handle it without us. And like a said, when they need us, they know where to find us. Think of it as a holiday, a little hiatus before we go back to kicking butt.'

'You know, most people go somewhere sunny on holiday.'

'And when have we ever been most people?'

'Good point.' Maria conceded

'This will be fun, trust me. Besides, I always wanted to get a prison bitch.'
