Hey guys, I'm soooooo sorry! I really didn't mean for it to take this long to update. I promise that I haven't given up on this story, I just have had horrible writers block for a while now. I had a super crazy busy summer and I'm back in college now so my free time hasn't really increased, but my classes are going really well so I decided to revisit this and try and shake of some of the writer's block. (This chapter had been harder than the others for some reason for me to write.) I have this story all planned out I now need to write it down and add all of the nice details. I can't tell you how many chapters it's going to be because whenever I start writing it gets longer or shorter than I think it will be. I can tell you it won't be horribly long, probably under 10 chapters. So I will stop talking now and let you guys read, because I know your probably pretty mad that it took me forever to update this, and I'm really sorry that it's so short. I'll try not to take so long to get the next one up and I'll try and make it longer.

P.S. I do not have a Beta so any mistakes you see are mine. If you see a grammar or spelling mistake let me know and I'll fix it.

Chapter 4

They walked into the very large dining hall and Mila stared around in amazement.

"There's so much food" She said as everyone laughed.

"Well come on, it's here to eat not stare at" Tony said. She took Radim's hand and followed behind Steve as he grabbed a plate for each of them. Radim took both plates and began adding food to them.

"What's that?" She asked, looking at some weird looking white goop.

"Fish eggs" Tony said.

"They're not really fish eggs, he's just messing with you." Natasha said when Mila looked at Tony with horror on her face.

"Try some" Tony said. Mila regarded the stuff then grabbed the scoop and put some onto her plate.

They continued grabbing food, and when everyone was satisfied they found a table to sit at.

"Here Radim, you try it first." Mila said, putting a spoonful of the pudding near his mouth.

"Why am I you're guinea pig?" He asked as everyone laughed.

"Please?" She asked, giving him the puppy dog look.

"Fine" He said, eying it wearily as he took the spoon and ate the pudding.

"What's it taste like?" She asked.

"Fishy" He told her. She looked over to Natasha in horror.

"You said that they weren't fish eggs" She said, and everyone laughed including Radim.

"I'm only kidding with you Mila," he said, still laughing, "It tastes like vanilla pudding, but with a different texture. You'll like it" He said. She glared at him but then took her spoon and took some of the pudding.

"I guess it is pretty good" She said. They all continued their meal, enjoying themselves as everyone continued to joke with each other (although most of the joking and fun was directed towards picking on Tony for various things), but the fun was cut short when director Fury arrived. Radim stopped laughing and his face grew hard when he spotted him.

"What is it Radim?" She asked when she saw her brother.

"Radim, could you come with me please. I need to speak with you" Fury told him.

"I could tell that much, what is this about?" Radim asked.

"I can see that you don't trust me yet, and I want to warn you that trust goes in two ways" Fury said. Radim clenched his jaw and narrowed his eyes at Fury, not appreciating the threat. After a second he decided it would be best just to cooperate, he did agree to help after all, he just wasn't expecting for Fury to come for him so soon. He turned to Mila.

"I need to go with him, if you need anything ask Agent Romanoff, she will help you. I'll come find you when I'm done. Listen to what you're told and behave yourself" Radim told her, speaking in Russian so that only Mila and Natasha understood. He looked discretely at Natasha and she met his gaze calmly for a brief second before turning back to the group. Satisfied that she had understood he went to follow Fury.

Fury led him down several hallways and into a small and empty conference room.

"Have a seat Radim, I'm sorry to have taken you away from your meal, you must be hungry" Fury said and Radim could tell that he was more testing than truly sorry, he wanted to see what would happen if he pushed his nerves.

"It's not a problem Director" Radim said pleasantly as he took a seat. "What is it that you wanted to speak to me about?" He asked.

"I want to ask you another question first, why speak to your sister in Russian?" Fury asked.

"She understands it better, and it is honestly easier for me as well" Radim said easily, although it was only partly true.

"Why pick Russian wouldn't she understand Czech better?" Fury asked, Radim stayed silent. "I also happened to hear Agent Romanoff mentioned and I can't help but feel that it wasn't a coincidence that you chose a language that only one other person besides you're sister would understand" Fury said.

"Forgive me director, but when you have lived the way I have it is hard to give people your trust, especially upon first meeting. I simply told Mila to ask Agent Romanoff if she needed any help with anything and I spoke Russian so ensure that this was agreeable to agent Romanoff as well. Basically I was asking for her to watch out for Mila. It is an old habit to do everything discreetly because too many ears can get you into trouble, as you seem to well know." Radim said. Fury regarded him for a moment but then accepted his answer.

"Alright, so on to business then. Your previous group is proving to be harder than we thought to break into and I have recently come to the conclusion that we may need to take things a little bit farther if we want to have a better chance of taking them down quietly." Fury said.

"Well if you have any suggestions I would like to hear them, because I have already helped where I can for the time being."

"But that's not entirely true" Fury said, Radim narrowed his eyes in suspicion and confusion.

"What is it that you have in mind?" Radim asked carefully.

"I am proposing that you become a double agent for SHIELD" Fury told him.

"And how exactly would we make this work without me getting killed. The leader is not that trusting, it is why you're having as much trouble as you are gaining information. He goes to great lengths to cover his tracks and he would be more than suspicious if I tried to say that I could feed him information. There is a reason that he trains his men so well, and makes them so afraid. He will not trust someone posing as a double agent because you never truly know where their true loyalties lie. Even if he was the one to recruit the spy he would not trust them even if it was his most trusted agent, he feels that loyalties can be too easily swayed in that type of position" Radim said.

"So what you're saying is that you don't believe there is any way that we could get *Ignatiy to trust someone posing as a leak?" Fury asked, annoyed.

"Pretty much" Radim said. Fury stopped to think for a while, taking stock of his options.

"What if you did it anyway?" Fury asked.

"I said I would help you, not get myself pointlessly killed" Radim hissed.

"Let me finish" Fury said authoritatively. "We would have you pose as a double spy working for Ignatiy, knowing that he will not trust you and we see if you can read him well enough to hopefully be able to get something out of him." Radim seemed to think about his proposition.

"And how will I communicate with him? I am not willing to speak with him in person. The moment I show my face to him he will capture and kill me" Radim said.

"There are other ways of communication that are not face to face. With the help of Stark and some strategic planning help from you I'm sure we will think of some sort of halfway believable story. Remember, I am not planning on getting him to trust you, I just want to throw him off guard and get him to slip up. I will keep your safety in consideration and I already promised that I would ensure the safety of your sister" Fury said. Radim regarded his offer, observing Fury carefully.

"Alright, I will pose as a double agent" He finally said.

So I hope you enjoyed it, I know it wasn't the most amazing chapter, but hopefully they will get better. If there is anything you guys want to see, like little side chapters with just cute or funny or any other kind of moment between characters then let me know. I can't guarantee I'll get it written very fast because I want to focus more on the storyline, but I can try and add in anything that you guys want to see.

*Ignatiy is the leader of Radim's previous group, I haven't mentioned his name before so I just wanted to make sure that no one got confused.
