Natasha arrived almost two and a half hours later. By then, they were halfway through the second movie. "Hi, Natasha!" Biela said cheerfully. "Did you get chewed out by Pepper?" The spy only nodded. Biela winced. "I know personally how painful Pepper's lectures are." She shrugged. "Been through worse," the spy replied. "Ugh. I didn't know that could be possible. Anyway, we're watching Men In Black II, we already watched the first one, wanna join? We've got about forty-five minutes left."

"I need to report in to the director," she said tiredly. "Then I can." "Oh, you mean the super-secret Director Nicholas Joseph Fury, who would make an excellent Dread Pirate Roberts?" "You've seen that movie?" Clint asked. She nodded. "It's Pepper's favorite." "How do you know about our director?" Phil asked. "Tony told me," she replied. All three rolled their eyes.

Natasha left the room, and returned a few minutes later, her face grim. "Fury's coming here," she replied. "He wants to talk to Stark. The Black Widow is helping him." "I want in, too," Biela replied. "He really is dying, isn't he," Biela said softly. Natasha nodded slowly. "I saw the poison charts. 89% before the party." "Usage of the Iron Man suit would have increased the palladium levels," Biela replied instantly. "If he wasn't dying, I'd murder him myself. He changed his will."

"What?" the SHIELD agents said in unison. "The will. He changed it. Everything is being left to me, with Pepper as my legal guardian. At the age of fourteen, I'm supposed to apply for emancipated minor status. Pepper is to be CEO until I take over the company myself," Biela replied. "And by everything, I mean everything. The properties, the stocks, the fortune, the company…it's all being left to me." "He's not leaving anything to Pepper or Rhodey or Happy?" Natasha asked. "His MIT stuff, all the stuff from their friendship…that goes to Rhodey. Happy will be made Head of Security at SI, and a very handsome bonus, and Pepper gets to be my legal guardian, CEO, and another very handsome bonus."

"So...I suppose you want to know what we've got planned for
tomorrow?" Natasha asked. Biela nodded. "Yes. Sit down. It can wait until after the movie."
