Coulson's POV
We turned the corner, and there she was, Anastasia, i wanted to run up and hug her, but I was frozen in place. Something was wrong, and why was she with the president? She is supposed to be missing, the Red Room captured her. We still aren't sure how but the did. SO how is she here, why is she not back with us, what is she hiding?
"Anastasia?" I call out almost inaudibly.
"Yes it is me, no questions I will explain in a few days with Skye and the Winter Soldier, no I have not been here the whole time, no I am not bringing Ward, no he is not dead, he is a HYDRA agent, the last one in S.H.I.E.L.D. now please move so I can finish what I need to do to get back sooner" She states and continues to walk, but then i see pietro rush in front of her and Wanda use her powers to hold her in place, though it takes no time for Anastasia to escape the pull. She freezes us and continues, moments later I can move again, along with the other.
"I did not just dream that right?" I ask once I get my voice back
"It wasn't Anastasia is here" Wanda states still unfocused though.
"Let's move we might catch up with her" May says and starts walking in the direction we last saw A and the president walking down, when we got there we saw the President walking out of Juliet's room, but where is Anastasia?
"Mr. President, what is going on with Anastasia? You seem to be the only one to know anything other than her." I ask in my agent-y voice
"That is need to know and you do not need to know at the moment" He states to us
"Actually, I do need to know, and at the moment, by law I have guardianship over Anastasia, until her parents return I am her guardian and have the right to know by official law." I state knowing when Natasha and Clint were sent to the other planet, that the guardianship of A was transferred to me. They knew that there was a chance one day that they would not come back from a mission, and wanted to be sure that if anything happened A would be safe, so by law she would be given to me if they were no longer available, I.E. on another planet.
"Actually, when her powers unlocked the goverment took over right of guardianship" He told me dead serious
"I never signed any papers nor did I agree to this, so without my consent that could not have happened"
"The supreme court signed over this to be an exception, as well as we had the right at anytime to take over guardianship papers once her parents were transported to the other planet. That was not written in the documents that transferred her to you" He stated, how much has he read into these papers, I wonder to myself.
"No, in the papers to transfer guardianship it was written if they did not come back from a mission or any other thing that would prevent them from getting back to her"
"Actually, when the Darby's took her in for the undercover mission, the guardianship was transferred to the goverment, you have had no right over her since she went with them."
"actually, that was a mission, I still have papers of guardianship over her even during the mission, for everything that involved signing by parent or guardian, I had to sign, that is the reason the Darbys had to bring the papers directly to the school and not sent threw A because she could not read my name on the papers. I still have full rights and guardianship over her." I argued back
"Really, come to my office, I have the papers that prove the goverment now controls Anastasia Romanoff-Barton. When she unlocked her powers she lost all rights over herself, as well as you lost your rights over her. You no longer have any control over her. She has no control over what she is allowed to do any longer, I have not acted upon it because I have not felt it necessary to act upon it yet, but since she was kidnapped under your watch you are no longer deemed an acceptable person nor agent to watch over her." He stated and had us follow him to his office, and then motioned for me to sit down and handed me the right of guardianship papers for me to read over, I started to read over them...
Anastasia's POV
We had landed back at the base only hours ago, I had went back to my room and wiped all of my make-up off and changed out of my mission gear into some leggings and a T-shirt and slipped a hoodie on over it. I put on some combat boots laced them up and went outside for a walk.
As I got to the doors to go outside the guards stopped me
"I am sorry ma'am but no one is permitted outside without clearance" The guard stated blocking the door, I pulled off my hood
"I have clearance" I told them, once they saw my face they immediately backed away and let me out the door. I wasn't lying when I said I had clearance, Ivan told me as long as I didn't go past the fence I could go outside for walks, and ect. Though it took until he fully trusted me to not try to run before he let me out there. I walekd out side and as I did I felt the snow and cold. It was almost September so it was still cold and had flurries of snow, but it wasn't unbearably cold. Plus with my powers it was harder for me to get cold so i did this occasionally to clear my mind.
They had brought Juliet to a holding cell, one that is more comfortable than most others. It was a smaller version of the room the Lionesses slept in. I could visit whenever I wanted, though Ivan said to interrogate, and manipulate like I do with SKye. But of course I am going to be doing the same thing I do with Juliet, as I do with Skye.
I looked around at the scenery. The trees were covered in frost, the ground in a blanket of snow, they sky was just a large puffy cloud, sending flurries of snowflakes down onto my red hair. I knelt down and put my hand into the snow, and grabbed a hand full, I looked into my hand and squeezed the snow into a tight little ball, once I released my hand to where I could see the tight ball. I started a small flame from my hand and watched as the water melted from the small flame. Until I just had some water left in my hand, I put out my flame, and tossed the water into the air and froze it again, and left it floating in the air. I froze them in shapes of Snowflakes. I held them in the air and walked around and looked at them, at each precise detail. Slowly one by one I let them fall into my hand, and using my powers made them permanently frozen. I slowly, took each of them and engraved a name on them. All 11. Each had a name of one of the Lionesses, and then mine, I didn't want us to ever truly be separated, I had grown connected to each one of them, they all had something about them I latched onto. I took some pine straw from trees nearby and wove it together, I burn't the pieces together until they were woven perfectly, until I had made 11. I tied them threw a small hole i had made in each snowflake. The only identical detail in them all. I put them in my pocket, after adding a few touches of something special into it. Then walked around for a few more minutes before going back inside with the Snowflakes hidden in my hoodie. I walked back to my room, and changed from from a hoodie and t-shirt, to a workout shirt. and changed into some Jazz shoes.
(A/N Ok so technically right now I am supposed to be reviewing one of my dances for my dance team, but instead I decided to write, but this is a mix of both, all of this is from my dance so i am technically reviewing )
I walked into the Lionesses training room and watched them for a few minutes, they were stretching, good I needed them stretched.
"Girls, I am trying something new with you today, I want everyone to go put on your Jazz shoes which were put into your workout locker. Then come meet me in the ballet room." I told them and walked out. I went to the Ballet room and quickly stretched before they came in, as they did i gave them each a pair of pom poms.
"Now, split up into 2 rows and neel in opposite directions. Then hinge up quickly, jump together, slide forward back row, and back front row. Now up down up, right arm first, snake your right arm and throw your left. Shake your hip 3 times then ripple by turning and throwing your right arm out. Jump together on 2 then split into 3 rows, make it a trapezoid. Ok first rom you go first, jump out and then down to the side. Then middle row, then last, pop back up and throw your right then left arm in a circle. THen pop back up, then align yourself with therow in front of you.

Scoop to the side, then 2 step turn back, throw your arm to each side, 2 hops throw your arm, then turn to the side and throw your left arm out. THe end
I told them and showed them step by step then turned on the music i had cut earlier, Hustler's work is never threw
and had them do it. They didn't do half bad considering I had just explained and showed and did it with them and I watched in the mirror to make sure they were doing it while I did.
after several more times of doing this I gave them a water break since we were about to start doing undercover stuff.
"Now you may think it is not much but just simply adding a little bit of Make up can make you look like a completely different person. Take your black liquid eyeliner and do the tops of your eyes, and a a tail in the crease of your eyes. Then take the thick cone shaped eyeliner that is more of a crayon and do the bottom of your eyes, then put on your mascara and look in the mirror and to the other girls, can you see the difference?" I asked, they did look quiet different with the way I had them do their makeup. I continued with this class for a while then we did some more escape practices. This time I taught them several parts for the escape plan. As well as some good formations to escape in when in groups. Finally I went back to my room and layed down on my bed and rested my eyes and focused my mind. I was going to talk to Skye about my plans.
"It is about to be time to escape, my plan is to leave tomorrow after I have computer hacking with the girls where I am going to transfer all of the files into my mind to transfer them into the shield Database as well as onto a usb just in case."
"Good plan, use a encrypted USB to make sure nothing can get threw it, you should have one in your mission suit from when they kidnapped you originally." She told me
"Ok, I am going to let Buck know but for now this is what you are going to be doing tomorrow..."
Coulson's POV
"FURY HOW COULD YOU LET THIS HAPPEN!? NOW THE GOVERNMENT HAS FULL CONTROL OF ANASTASIA AND THE ONLY WAY TO GET HER BACK IS FOR THE GOVERNMENT TO ALLOW IT OR FOR HER PARENTS TO COME BACK! and at the moment if you haven't noticed even if Anastasia wasn't kidnapped by the Red Room, she is not on good terms with her parents, so why would she want to be with them at the moment? Why would she even try?"
" Because she is who she is Coulson, now while the goverment has control over Anastasia I am the head of one of the main parts of the goverment I still have some control over her which is why we have managed to keep her at S.H.I.E.L.D. which trust me has not been easy. Coulson I know that Anastasia will save the Avengers, not necessarily for her Parents, but for Pepper and Maria... She will do it for them and their loved ones, she will do it for Jane and Lady Sif and the Warriors 3. Just because she brings her parents back does not mean she gains nothing else. She can ignore her parents take everything out on them in person. She can resolve her problems with them hopefully" Fury told me
"But this is what started it all, them not believing in her abilities to save them, she may do it just to prove them wrong and have nothing more to do with the. They need to speak to her in person before this can even be thought of as a possibility to be resolved. You haven't seen the hatred in her eyes after she speaks to them or they have mentioned, or the fire in her eyes when she defies them, when she proves something they say wrong. Oh she strengthens all the time it is not always as noticeable but it is there, she has the spark and fire of her mother. I am only scared of what she has become..." I tell him trailing off at the end
"What do you mean scared of what she has become?"
" She has been held by the Red Room for almost a month now. I have seen her once she did not seem like the girl she was before."
"What has changed?" He asked confused at what could have changed Anastasia
"She wanted to be intimidating, you could see in her face she lost that innocence that made her even more special in our world. She lost the look of emotion, she is becoming a May, after Bahrain. She seems even worse, and she hasn't even left. What ever is going on in the Red Room to her. It has changed her, she is becoming more emotionless than Romanoff when we first brought her in. I could tell all of this from just the minute I saw her. " I told him
"Fury" I continued "She used her powers on us, on purpose. She froze us in place, she overcame Wanda's hold over her when she held A in place with her powers. Fury, she has lost herself"
"I am not even sure what she was doing in the White House, why was she even here, and why is nothing being release?" Fury thought aloud
"I don't know what could have broke her. I mean her parents can make her mad, they can infuriate her, but to her that is just a reason to push harder, but no this, this was not that. This was a lost broken girl, I never thought could lose herself, her goals. But whatever has happened, she is reacting worse to this than she did with anything else put together. We need to get her back, and soon." I expressed
"We need to find her" Fury agreed
"I think I can help with that" A voice came from behind. It was Wanda
"What do you mean?" I asked "If you could why haven't you mentioned it sooner?" I added
"Because I couldn't before. When I held her in place for a moment, I also put a tracker on her" She explained
"So we can track her?" Fury asked verifying
"We can track her down within the mile." She confirmed
"Get on it" Fury ordered and with that we walked out the doors and to the tech department on the Helicarrier. We found they were already searching notified as soon as we left Fury's office
After finally finding the tracker we all got a rescue team ready. The team would consist of Myself, Wanda, Pietro, May, and Sharon Carter. While Simmons was on the Bus ready to treat any injuries. As well as the Helicarrier on standby with several teams ready to go in and destroy the base.
We were loading onto a quinjet which had boarded the Bus, the bus would stay at a distance landing in a nearby empty area in the thick forest. While the rescue team would be landing a mile away from where we had figured out the base was located. We grabbed our gear and some thick coats and started our mile long trek to the base.
A Pov
I was starting the hacking class with the Lionesses, and once the class started, I started the download of the entire Database. Just as the download completed guards rushed in and put me a gunpoint from all angle. What was going on?
Then Ivan walked in followed by Alexei, I quickly used my powers to pull the USB to my pocket, hidden very well.
"Anastasia, I expected better of you. I let you out on a mission, and you bring S.H.I.E.L.D. with you. Now they are attacking, care to explain" Ivan told me, wait, I never lead them to me infact I wanted them to stay away
"Ivan, you expect so little of me? I want to be here, I don't want to be anywhere near S. .L.D. they used me, you haven't I train the Lionesses for the future. Why would I have reason to turn on you, I have done everything I have been told, including kidnapping the presidents Daughter" I him proving my points.
"Don't try to fool me Young Widow, you, will never be as good as your mother. You will forever be in her shadow, as well as your fathers, you are to belittled of them. You are a copy, and only the originals make it, never the copies, you may be the best copy possible, but you are no Black Widow or Hawkeye. You will never be as good as them. You are worse than they ever were" He taunted finally I lost my temper I had been very good about keeping under control
"HUSH!" I shout and shoot my hand out, and they all freeze, every guard, even Ivan and Alexei, I forze them but the girls stayed in motion.
"Girls, we need to get out of here now, forget any escape plans, we are getting, Juliet, Skye and the Winter soldier and getting out of here, do you have anything you want out of your room?" I ask them, they all shake their heads no. They may not have stuff but I do.
"Ok girls follow me, I need stuff out of mine." I told them and lead them to my room, sweeping everything into bags, they helped as well, i used my powers to do it as efficiently as possible, once it was all in bags after just a moment, I took them and shrunk them and put them in a bag and then shrunk that one and made sure it was secure and put it with the USB.
"Ok now follow me we are going to get Skye and The Winter Soldier." I told them as we ran to where the prisoners were held.
"Nicole, go that way and go to room 5A get the girl out of there it is Juliet. I will let her know to trust you, go" I told her and she nodded and ran off I went with the others and let out Bucky and SKye as well as letting Juliet know to trust NIcole, finally we were all together. We ran to the outside and were met with several teams of S.H.I.E.L.D. in front of us, guns raised and not set to stun, but kill...
