p data-p-id="360af60e0a9c43cbb2f36a537b1edd69""Come in." Tony walked in and sat on the chair in the corner of the room./p
p data-p-id="d7dd80798285d0f47f73fc3b3f005244""I thought you'd want to know this." Natasha sat up in her bed./p
p data-p-id="bebd5b7c3f20005e335912ca5c9f11bf""We've found Laura's location, well rough location. She's on one of the Galapagos islands."/p
p data-p-id="9a9e0238aedcc499e43a02adb3815654""That's a long way away. Have you spoken to Clint this morning?"/p
p data-p-id="e32a645b82242c2dd726a71ce1482019""No, why?" Natasha get out of bed, grabbing her dressing gown and goes down the hall towards Clint's room. She knocks on the door, enters and pulls the covers back from the bed. Damn. She thought. Tony appeared behind her./p
p data-p-id="460353a104d7b8b7e9bdc89edcb832d1""That's why you keep an eye on Clint, as he's likely to do something stupid when Laura or his kids are concerned."/p
p data-p-id="7ddeffb2777d61af6101bcf915021f88""Jarvis have you seen Clint recently?" Tony asked./p
p data-p-id="4663d5615114763247683f8645cf22d1""He left the building two hours ago" the A.I said./p
p data-p-id="7dfc0f3ff3a2f10241889df2c75c8298""Thank you" Natasha said. She emerged from her room five minutes later fully dressed./p
p data-p-id="f0b0b37f1a96443b5422dfc944ca8c2d""Where are you going?" Tony asked. Natasha didn't answer./p
p data-p-id="cdbc85b22a5cfeb8bfac9139a0ad2137""Where was she going?" Bruce asked, appearing a few moments later./p
p data-p-id="3ffb13839da7a640820f96d1ae6a570b""No idea" Tony remarked. "Want to go tinker in the lab?"/p
p data-p-id="425e9325e8ff9e578c200778bc5ec625""Sure, she is alright though?" Bruce asked concerned./p
p data-p-id="75d02265b9fbb909b07e84ddf8be10a1""She's fine, she's Black Widow. If she's not fine God help the rest of us." Bruce remained unconvinced./p
p data-p-id="880c0f3ef2744f782520c9e91ca37a7b"About an hour later Natasha returned with a very wary looking Clint. Tony and Bruce stood up from their seats in the lab./p
p data-p-id="ff87bbf61859c9b1e563bc2197ecce02""Bruce" Natasha beckoned as she lay him on the medical table. Bruce proceeded with a load of bandages, a bottle of antiseptic, thread and a needle. Natasha and Tony watched whilst Bruce went to work patching up Clint. Clint started to wake up, but seemed dazed./p
p data-p-id="28b15f043fa5d28f37162f390ecb17b3""Where am I? Laura?" He asked thinking Natasha was his wife./p

p data-p-id="3a536dfe45164002f339e29ff25809e8""Clint, what do you remember?" Natasha asked, not really wanting to tell him everything again. His face then went blank./p
p data-p-id="e12ca960e45c126aebcdba661a60e284""Clint?" He shook his head then looked at Natasha./p

p data-p-id="dbb7b04cd2a594c7f987641c9448fbdf""I wasn't" Natasha lied. "We've found where Laura is, but you're not coming with us, not like that."/p
p data-p-id="b224b957799f96176f16b856125018b3""Where is she?" Clint said anger creeping onto his face, "Natasha you can't stop me from going."/p
p data-p-id="2f56e7bb9335e907032f33e1568f3d27""Yes I can, you're no good to her like this. You need to rest. Get better."/p
p data-p-id="f7d49aefa519f1e881dc56734e05f4f6""Well I'm fine" Clint said getting off the table and walking towards the doors of the lab./p

p data-p-id="4f8a3347dbda0f1b793c574eb0a03a4d""It's for your own good Barton" Clint went into an attack stance. Natasha registered this and put her hand on her icer. Clint reacted to this and a full on fight had started. Tony and Bruce looked scared for their lives, they backed into one of the corners of the room. Natasha blocked his moves, as he did hers. Clint got Natasha on her feet and he made a run for the doors. Thump. Clint fell to the floor. Natasha had shot him./p
p data-p-id="4d3449048d8bf53dd0bdd7cb7c605a5b""Oh my gosh" Tony exclaimed./p
p data-p-id="e24dd409dfe04d4814a53824ea0f328c""Relax it's an Icer" but that got met with blank expressions so she explained, "a sort of more efficient tranq gun." Natasha walked over to where Clint lay./p
