Bruce and Tony still worked alongside with Dr. Sarah D'orsey. Feeling bad for Heidi they worked on an idea that would give her more odds in becoming pregnant. What they haven't realized is that there had been a Hydra spy copying the notes and sending it back to HQ. This is a spy that no one would have expected it to be that was able to get access to the Avengers' Tower. They can come and go as they please and no one says a word. Hydra never lost sight of Heidi after trying to retrieve her back in Austria. In fact, they have implanted several spies working alongside the Avengers just as they did with S.H.I.E.L.D. Several spies reported that their Winter Soldier has joined them as well. This could be a great advantage to Hydra if they played their cards right.

The spy shadowing over the Banner and Stark project, saw what they were doing and reported back to HQ. When Heidi's handler discovered what Banner and Stark were up to, Dr. Steiner ordered a team to work on the same project to determine what results they would have on their end. Like their nemesis, Hydra wanted to focus on Heidi and their Winter Soldier, as well as Rogers and utilize his serum for possible future progeny. They called the project 'Golden Future'. Dr. Steiner had a spy sent specifically to watch Heidi for signs of anything that could indicate pregnancy, or if she was sexually active at all. Over the Christmas holiday, some plans had shifted for Hydra.

One day, the team got a lead on a Hydra spy's location and went to retrieve him. Steve, Bucky, Heidi, Tony, and Rhodes traveled to Japan to search for the spy. In the middle of Tokyo, Heidi, her companion Alexi, and Rhodes were on the rooftop of a building, scoping out the spy. While Steve and Bucky were undercover as civilians on the ground; Steve is pretending to be shopping while Bucky is sitting at a noodle stand. Tony stayed behind on the quinjet as backup. "If we find him, we can't lose this guy. He's our best bet in finding Hydra," Steve remarks on everyone's earpiece.

"That's not going to happen," Heidi adds in with a smirk. "THERE!" Rhodes yells, "He's five hundred yards south from Buck. Wearing a green army jacket and black beanie." "Got him!" "Found him!" Heidi and Steve said at once.

"Buck, don't make a move yet. He might get spooked," Steve says quickly. Heidi climbs down the building with ease; Alexi follows behind. "Let me get close to him and we can corner him," she says to her earpiece. "Copy that. Rhodes, keep your eyes on him." "Will do." Heidi dismisses Alexi and the cat disappears into an alley. She would really stand out with a snow leopard following her around. She works her way through the crowds while keeping her eyes on Bucky's backside. She touches his shoulder and leans in, "Hey sweetie." He greets her back with a smile. "Hey beautiful." He pays for the ramen and the pair walks away together, pretending to engage in a conversation while trying to get closer to the spy who was busy texting on his phone. Steve was trying to close in on him but as the spy looks up, he noticed Heidi and Bucky and starts to make a run for it.

"Damn it," Bucky mutters under his breath. All three super soldiers run after the spy. They split off from each other and chased him down. The spy was fast and was good at parkour. He leaped and bounded over trash bins and fences easily. But the trio kept up with him. For a good thirty minutes, they chased him through the streets. He makes a turn and sees that it's a dead end and was going to turn to his right but was greeted by Alexi. The beast growls and hisses at him. Two seconds later Bucky and Steve corner him. The spy starts to laugh. "I'm not scared of you Winter Soldier. You'll never make me talk," he says. He grabs for his gun in his pocket but Heidi's whip snaps it out of his hand. She comes up behind him and puts him on a choke hold with the whip as the guys grab for him and secure him. "He's not the one you should be scared of...it's me," she hisses in his ear. The spy didn't say anything but just sat there and smirk. "Good to see you too Tamer." Heidi was surprised but tried not to show it.

"You know me?" "I was there when they had you locked up...didn't you have a dog too?" he asks with a knowing smile. Rage suddenly overcoming her she backhands the guy in the face. "Tell us where Hydra is hiding...and maybe, we'll let you die quickly," she remarks. "Heidi..." Steve warns. She ignores him.

After his hands were tied behind his back and body checked for weapons or anything he might use on himself, Heidi picks him up and slams him against the concrete wall. "Where are they?" she demands again. "We're everywhere sweetheart. We have at least ten bunkers around the world...including in L.A." "Why haven't they come after us?" Heidi questions. "We've been searching for the Winter Soldier for some time but we never lost sight of you...we're just bidding our time."

"For what?" Steve questions.

The spy didn't say anything right away. He just stared at Heidi in a creepy way. "You know...you've got a bit of a glow to you Tamer." Unsure of what he meant, Heidi didn't respond to him. "We'll be coming for ya...and we'll take the Winter Soldier back as well...might even make something out of you Rogers...but all in due time." "That's not going to happen," Heidi says and leans forward in the guy's face. "Because I'm going to make sure Hydra burns to the ground until you are nothing but ash. Anything else you want to add in before we drop you off in jail?" The guy leans to the side by her ear before whispering, "Hail Hydra." In a swift movement he had dislocated his wrist to break free from his handcuffs and grabs Heidi's gun holstered to her thigh. Before she could stop him, he takes a shot. The bullet zips past her. She knocks him out with a punch and he falls down hard on the ground. "Moron..." she mutters.

But as she turns around, the guys were kneeling over something. The smell of blood suddenly invades her nostrils and she realizes what happened. She pushes past them and starts petting Alexi. The bullet had hit him on the neck and the blood was spreading through his fur. "No..nonononono...stay with me baby..." She was beginning to panic. "Rhodes. Tony. Bring the quinjet. We need help," Steve said on the earpiece. Rhodes arrived within seconds in his suit with the quinjet hovering over them. "Take us inside," Heidi says as she picks up the cat in her arms. Without questioning, Rhodes picks her up and flies her up to the quinjet.

After he drops her off, Rhodes went back down to join the guys to deal with the Hydra spy. Tony comes to Heidi's side with a first aid kit. She opens it up and plucks out some gauze to stop the bleeding. She was shaking all over. "It's okay sweetie...it's okay...shh shhh.." The cat moans lowly and lays his head down. She uses a pocket knife to pull out the bullet and flings it away from her. The bleeding wasn't stopping. She can feel his breathing slowing. She knew in her heart of hearts that he wasn't going to make it but she didn't want to give up.

"We'll take him to a hospital. Dr. Cho is not too far from here. Maybe she can help," Tony suggests timidly. "Just go..." she said in a cold tone. When he didn't leave she turns to him and snaps.

"GO AWAY!"

Tony jumps and parks the jet. He went outside with the others, leaving her alone with the dying cat. Not knowing what else to do she pulls him up in her lap and brushes him with her fingers while feeling for his breathing. The cat pulls his head up to look at her and they lock eyes for a long moment before he slowly blinks. Too tired to hold his head up, Alexi lets his head drop. Tears stream down her face. Her lips quiver. She knows what she has to do; she just doesn't want to do it. Her shaking hand reaches for her other gun in her pocket. She cocks it and holds it against the cat's head. "I'm sorry baby boy...I love you," she whispers.

The guys huddled together in a discussion for a plan while the spy, now awake, was practically hog tied on the ground next to them.

Bang!

The sound made them all jump. Steve and Tony had their eyes shut and their lips pressed tightly. Rhodes's head fell and he said a quiet prayer. Bucky's hands clenched and he eyed the spy with a cold look. A minute later, Heidi comes out. She stops for second when she saw her teammates turn to her. Alexi's collar was hanging in her hand, splattered in red. Her hazel/gold eyes snap to the spy and she quickly strides to the man.

"No, Heidi! Wait!" Steve yells. He tries to stop her but she quickly punches him in the face before reaching for the spy. She pulls him up and twists behind him while choking his neck with the collar. The spy's eyes bulged and he struggled against her. Her eyes never leaving Steve, challenging him.

"Let him go! Now!" She didn't waver.

"Damn it Heidi!" Steve lunges for her but she steps away from him. The spy falls to the ground, no longer breathing. "Damn it! You've jeopardize the mission...again!" "How many more of the ones I love will they take!? How many more will have to die?" she shrieks with rage. Steve had nothing to say. "Will be you? Bucky? All the others? What is it going to take!?"

"We'll get them Heidi but we have to work as a team. We both know they're clever. We can't do it alone," Steve says sternly, trying to reason with her. "That spy played you. He knew what he was doing from the moment we caught him. You were his way out," he explains. Heidi shakes her head and run her hands through her hair in frustration. "I know," she responded with a quivering voice. Bucky approached her and touched her arm reassuringly. She pulls away. For the time being, she had no room for affection. "Let's just go. At least we know where to start looking. We can get back and start combing L.A." she said coldly and walks back to the quinjet. The rest of the team silently followed behind, hauling the dead spy with them. Heidi didn't let Alexi go during the flight back. She didn't say anything to the others and they, unsure what to say to comfort her, didn't utter a word either.

Halfway back home, Heidi was suddenly feeling ill. She gets up and walks toward the back of the jet and crouches over a bin and violently vomits. "Woah, sick passenger," Rhodes says and went to check up on her. Bucky, worried, went to help her too. She waves them away. "I'm fine. Just stay back before I throat punch you," she said before getting sick again. The guys grimaced from the smell and the sounds of her throwing up. "I'll get some water," Rhodes remarks and left. When the girl was done she sits down and leans back against a wall.

Bucky crouches next to her while giving her a worried look. "I'm fine. Just…probably the aftershock of…everything," she mumbles. He nods and pulls her to him. She let's him hold her. "I'm sorry about Alexi. I know how much he means to you." Heidi starts tearing up and hugs Bucky back. "I just can't believe he's gone." She started to feel ill again and pushed him away before hurling into the bin. "I don't think it's stress Heidi. You might be sick," Tony says as he hands her some water. "Or it could be the Formula attacking your body," he adds. "It's never done this before…so why now," Heidi said as she swigs the water. "Dunno. Let's take a look at you in the lab when we get back," he suggests. The blond shakes her head. "No. I have to…"

She gestures her head to Alexi, "After…I'll come by. My being sick can wait." Tony nods understandably.
