*3rd POV*

All the people who were in Nick's office are filled with hope, and then it quickly diminishes when they saw it was Clint and not Nikolina. Clint looked at Fury, Natasha, and Steve in confusion, he walks into the office and shuts the door behind him. He walks over to the little lounge area and sits down in the empty chair. Clint reads the expressions and feels a sense of dread come over him.

"What's happened?" Clint asked while trying to figure out if anything wrong has happened in the news.

"An agent has been compromised." Clint sets his emotions and asks, "Who?"

A slight pause is very evident, and then Natasha said in a tight voice, "Nikki."

"Nikki? Are you sure?" Clint's throat felt like it was closing, and he couldn't breathe. His chest starts to move up and down rapidly.

"Yes, she was on a mission when she was captured." Fury said in an authoritative voice.

"Who captured her? How long has she been missing?" Panic was starting to lean into Clint's voice as he thought about the woman he loves like a little sister.

"HYDRA. She has been gone for about two months." Fury said, Clint feels anger course through him, and he jumps up. "WHY DIDN'T YOU TELL ME SOONER?! I COULD HAVE HELPED HER!"

"We didn't know she was gone until a few hours ago, Clint," Natasha said in a cold, calm voice.

"What do we know?" Clint interrogated all three of them.

Steve answers this time, "She was in Paris, intercepting a business deal from Pierre DeBois and Mateo Lopez. A guy came after her; I couldn't see who it was cause he had a disguise on. He knocked her out and dragged her with him. We are trying to track their where about from there, but so far, everything is coming up cold."

Clint listens to Steve begin to explain what they knew, and he mulls over the information he is given; he wants to go to Paris. He wants his little sister, he pulls up the video footage of what happened and watches it with such intensity. Clint feels pride at the way Nikki took down those two guys, but his ego turns into nervousness very quickly when he sees her hand reach for her neck. His heart stops when he saw her fall to the ground; he looks at the surroundings and then saw that she is being dragged away.

He reaches over to the monitor and moves the video to the side; he opens up a map and brings all the positions that Nikolina was and what she did there, all of a sudden as Clint was going to touch the screen again the screen changes. The map zooms out and moves from west Europe all the way over to Russia. All the people in Fury's office watch the screen in confusion. A red blip appears in the middle of Russia, then all of a sudden, a blue blip appeared. A video pops up on the screen, and it is from a security camera, they watch as Nikolina walks down a hallway leaving a trail of bodies. She steps out of the frame, and then the camera turns fuzzy, the video closes, and then the screen moves toward the red blip.

Natasha and Clint felt recognition ringing through them, that is where Nikolina has a safe house. A video opened again, Nikolina was sitting in a chair and staring at the camera. A smirk came to her lips and then she started speaking,

"I'm alright. I'm in Russia. I escaped. I will be in the United States in a week, I have a lot to tell you, and I demand a damn raise. Also, I've been missing for TWO months, and you idiots NOW notice that I'm missing? Seriously? You need to step up your game. It's weak."

Everyone lightly chuckled at Nikolina's humor and felt relief surge through their bodies. The video closed, and all they see is the blank map now. Clint sat down while replaying the video in his mind again; there was something off about Nikki. Natasha was thinking along the same lines as Clint and was trying to figure out why she looked so different. Steve's mind was racing a mile a minute; he imagined the torture Nikolina endured and why she was captured. Fury was wondering how this is going to affect Nikolina and if HYDRA got any intelligence from her.
