A/N: Nat would never do this but that's what Fan Fics are for am I right! I'm currently working on a chapter for 'Stark Raving Mad' so if your following keep watch over the weekend and if you're not you should be.

"Romanoff, I need you." Fury interrupted the conversation the Avengers were having

Natasha stood to attention and followed him out of the room. As soon as they had left Tony hacked the Helicarrier and found which room they had went to, he brought up a live feed and ignored Steve's protests. When Fury started talking, they all gave up trying to stop Tony and watched the video.

THE VIDEO

Fury turned his back on Natasha and said angrily "You lied on your report about Stark. I mean volatile? yes; arrogant? yes; doesn't play well with others true but 'Tony Stark not recommended'? I don't think so."

"Sir, Stark is completely insane."

Fury did a double take "Sure Stark's a little eccentric and he's got his quirks but-"

"Sir you don't understand! He's not eccentric, he's not quirky, he's not unique, he's not a misunderstood genius, he's insane!" Natasha really had to stress that point

"If he's so crazy why did your review leave his recruitment open ended?" Nick would never understand her

"Stark has no idea he's a total psychopath."

"Psychopath?" Fury was done "I guess you're just going to add homicidal on top of that too!"

"Depends on your definition of homicidal." Natasha deadpanned

"I'm not going to ask, just answer the original question."

"Stark doesn't think he's crazy, he doesn't want anyone to know he's crazy, he won't do anything too crazy so he fights the bad guys." Natasha hesitated slightly on the word fight

"You mean kill the bad guys." Natasha didn't answer which meant yes "So tell me Romanoff, what happens when we start looking like the bad guys?"

Natasha looked Fury in the eye and said in a monotone voice "We put him down."

END OF VIDEO

On the other side Tony was staring at the screen with his mouth hanging open The others were glancing warily from Tony to each other. Just then Natasha and Fury walked back into the room, one look at the screen showing the room they had just been in and the tense tone of the occupants in the room they realised what had happened all Natasha could say was "Crap."

Tony turned towards Natasha "Completely insane?" his voice was an octave higher than usual "Homicidal psychopath?"

"Stark I-" Natasha had an answer, she had an excuse, an escape route.

"No! You know what! I'm done with SHIELD! I mean I'm not even an Avenger, even with a 'good' report I didn't even qualify. I'm out. Good Bye Director Fury." Tony stormed out of the room.

Bruce turned angrily towards Natasha his eyes glowing green "You were planning on putting Stark down when he was done with his usefulness?!" He yelled They all backed up at the sight of angry Bruce "I suppose you have a plan for when the Hulk becomes my dominant side; or when Steve goes all Red Skull on us; or when Thor and Asgard try to conquer us! I expected this from Fury, he has to think about these things, he has to keep some things secret, but you Natasha, you didn't even tell Fury!"

"Bruce I- I'm sorry." He simply left eh room taking deep breaths to calm himself "Guys?" she asked the Avengers. Steve and Thor didn't look at her they followed Bruce out the door. "Clint?" her voice cracked with emotion at the thought of Clint leaving her

"Natasha, I- I- I'm sorry Nat, I just can't right now." He lowered his gaze and left the room

"Oh okay." Natasha said weakly refusing to face Fury with the tear brewing in her eyes. "I'll just go to my room."

A/N: I know Black Widow doesn't cry but she is only human after all. OOOOH maybe that should be the title of my next Short Fic
