Black Widow's Sexy New Symbiotic Catsuit
Chapter 15: Battle Suit
"Nice to have you back, Agent Romanoff," Steve Rogers AKA Captain America commented to his comrade as their helicopter neared the drop-off point. "I knew the recent accusations against you were just a misunderstanding."
"Thanks!" Natasha responded. "Now, what's our plan of operation?"
Rogers pulled out a map. "Iron Man will blast through the wall of the main building, allowing you and I to get through. Our main objective is to locate the hard-drive you read about as discreetly as possible."
Natasha saluted. "Got it!"
The helicopter hovered a short distance away from the camp, and Natasha could hear the gunfire and fire explosions, no doubt caused by Iron Man.
Rogers and Natasha jumped off and began running towards the base.
At the hole into the headquarters, Rogers and Natasha stepped in quietly, tiptoeing around the damage as if expecting an attack.
Suddenly, a sniper's shot echoed throughout the hall. Captain America put up his shield defensively, but was tackled to the ground by a HYDRA soldier jumping on top of him.
"Black Widow!" the Captain screamed as he delivered blows to HYDRA agent. Natasha noticed a battalion of HYDRA soldiers making their way to them. "Finish the mission! I can handle these guys!"
Natasha nodded and ran toward a hallways to her left. She turned into a small corridor as she heard the unmistakable sound of bullets being fired at her general direction.
She cursed in her native Russian, a tic she only did when she was incredible anxious.
Looking down at her booted feet, she made a revelation: she was still wearing the catsuit. Hurriedly, she took off her boots and willed the symbiote to transform over her again. While the transformation was still in mid-process, she jumped into a ventilation system right above her with her increased symbiotic ability.
Natasha could feel the transformation into the regular, non-Chimera symbiote mode had completed as she opened up a hole in the ceiling and jumped down, her symbiotic "spider senses" alerting her of the guard in front of her, still looking for Natasha but facing in the wrong direction.
She used the webbing from her wrist to pull his gun out of his hand. As he turned to face her, Natasha delivered a kick to his head, incapacitating him and causing him to land hard on the ground.
"Black Widow, are you there?" Captain America's voice ringed in Natasha's ear-piece.
"I hear you, Captain."
"The battalion is down, I'm headed your way!"
Natasha panicked. She was sure the Captain didn't know about her arrangement with Fury, or about the suit and its capabilities.
Before she could figure out a solution, Captain America appeared in the hallway. She looked down and realized she was still in symbiote-mode.
"FREEZE!" the Captain screamed, as Natasha ran away. She heard the sound of a SHIELD issue non-lethal weapon fire and ricochet behind her.
"Black Widow, there appears to be a symbiote-enhanced person working for HYDRA. Stay on high alert, and execute with extreme prejudice."
Natasha gulped, before responding with "Copy that."
She hid behind a wall, hoping her catsuit would reform.
"C'mon, C'MON!" she screamed at it, until after a few seconds that seemed like an eternity, she saw the symbiote retract from her hands, feet and head, and reform her usual catsuit. After a couple of seconds, it even reformed boots in the exact same shape and size as the ones she had left behind.
She turned around, and Captain America ran into her.
"Oh, jeez, sorry! I didn't see you there!" he said.
"No worries," she said, hiding the pain caused by running into a super-soldier with no symbiote to help cushion the blow. "Any sign of the symbiote?"
He shook his head. "Nothing. It's like it… vanished out of thin air. Oh well, c'mon, we can worry about it later."
Natasha and Rogers ran down the next corridor, hoping to find what they were looking for.
Baron Strucker looked at the computer monitor at the two superheroes who were right outside the door to his lair.
"Ah," he said, as he turned to face them. "Captain Rogers. Agent Romanoff. Nice to see-"
"That's Captain America and Black Widow to you, slime!" the Captain responded.
Strucker laughed. "Ah, yes, your codenames. So important. Tell me, do you come seeking this?" He held up a hard-drive in his hand.
Natasha scoffed. "So much for a discreet removal."
Strucker didn't seem to notice her comment. "Hidden in here are HYDRA's encryption data, a program which could unlock thousands of classified HYDRA materials to your organization." Strucker then pulled out a gun and shot the hard drive. "Don't worry, I have backup. Meanwhile, I would like you to meet HYDRA's latest weapon…"
It was then Rogers and Natasha noticed the giant, lumbering beast making his way toward them. The creature was at least 10-feet tall and looked mutated, like some sort of ogre out of a child's nightmare, with a deformed face featuring a cyborg eye. He looked overweight, like his massive torso couldn't be supported by his stubby legs. Everywhere on his body, there were scars and stitches, like Frankenstein's monster come to life.
"This, my dear SHIELD agents, is Experiment Y79T. We call him Mr. Pain for short. Mr. Pain was formerly Martin, a convict, looking for a way out of prison. We gave him a new lease on life… so to speak…" Strucker said as he chuckled.
"You're a monster!" Captain America screamed.
"I'm not the monster, Captain. Mr. Pain is. And I bid you all a fond farewell," Strucker said as he took off running further into his lair.
"Stark, Strucker's running away. Main hard-drive cannot be retrieved, try to find an alternative!" Captain America said into his earpiece.
Natasha stood quietly, knowing how to defeat Mr. Pain, but wondering how best to break the news to her comrade and friend.
"Hey, Steve," she said, using his nickname she so rarely used. "I, uh… remember the warrant against me? When I was wanted by SHIELD?"
"Not now!" the Captain responded, as Mr. Pain lurched his way closer and closer to two of them. "We need to figure out a way to defeat this thing!"
"I know," Natasha said. "Capt, please, just promise me… you won't freak out when you see what happens to me? What I become?"
"Natasha, I don't understand-" the Captain tried to say before he was interrupted by Natasha kissing him.
"For good luck!" she said, and then began the transformation.
