Chapter 5
Cooper and Lila had gone to bed and Tony was left sitting on his sofa watching his TV. Pepper walked over and sat down next him.
"Hey" he said as she rested her head on his shoulder.
"Hi" She said looking up at him. They just sat there for a moment looking into each others eyes. Tony leaned in to kiss Pepper.
"I can't sleep" A very tired looking Lila said causing Tony to stand up and pick up Lila.
"Lets see if a bed time story might help" Tony said. Pepper smiled to herself thinking what a great Dad Tony would make. She suddenly stopped those thoughts. Did Pepper want kids? That thought train was forced to a halt as something came crashing straight through the window, throwing Pepper backwards. Tony rushed in and saw the giant hole in the window.
"Pepper!" Tony shouted. A cough could be heard.
"Pepper?" Tony said worried running over to where the sound came from. He could see her through cracks between lumps of concrete which had blown in. Steve rushed in followed by Cooper and Lila.
"Tony?" He called out.
"Yeah?"
"Are you alright?"
"Yeah but Pepper..." Tony stopped " She's trapped. Keep the kids back, I'm going to get my suit" he rushes off and returns moments later in one of the Iron man suits. He lifts some of the rubble. Pepper's almost out but Tony can't lift one rock off her.
"Steve I need your help" Steve rushes over.
"1, 2, 3!" Steve says. They manage to get the rock off of her.
"She need to be taken to the hospital" Steve says Tony looks at him worry plastered on his face. "You take her I'll stay here" Steve says just as two people covered in black outfits burst through the broken window. Steve rushes over and starts to fight them off. After five minutes of solid fighting they just wouldn't go down. One of them then collapses to the ground. Natasha had walked in and was firering an icer. The second person tripped Natasha and Steve up giving them long enough to write a symbol on the wall. Natasha got up to fight them again but they'd left. Then two paramedics arrived and took Pepper away to the hospital, Tony going with them.
"What's that symbol?" Steve asks "Who were they?"
"I'm not quite sure what the symbol exactly means there are multiple options, but as for who they are I know the organisation" Natasha says tilting her head slightly towards the floor.
"Who are they Natasha?" Steve says with a bit more force.
"They're the KGB"
"Seriously what do they want?"
"Me in exchange for Clint and Laura probably"
"Why would they want you? Surely working for Shield violated every code they have"
"Yes it does, but I was one of the best in the organisation"
"Ok, so why take Laura and Clint, couldn't they just ask you?"
"There not that type of people Steve" Natasha says walking off to find some quiet and think over a plan. She had to decript the code.
A/N I know it's short but I haven't had much time as I'm preparing to go back to school. Plus finishing any homework I got given for the holidays. So thanks for sticking with me and the story.
