Chapter 53
Damian, as usual, woke up with two pairs of arms clinging to him, carefully freed himself, and dressed before heading downstairs.
He found Natasha eating breakfast and ready to leave with Sophia accompanying her.
"Are you ready to go?" asked Damian with a smile.
''Yes,'' Natasha said, smiling at him.
''Great, I hope you have a good day'' said Damian nodding.
''You sound like a wife who sends her husband to work," Sophia teased.
''I guess I'll have to give him my paycheck,'' Natasha said with a laugh.
Damian just rolled his eyes before sitting down with them.
Natasha finished breakfast and went to her room to brush her teeth.
''She's a nice girl, I guess you have an eye for women," Sophia said as she watched Natasha walk away.
''Although I'm sure the color of her hair and her body have nothing to do with it,'' Sophia said, directing Damian a mocking look.
''Sometimes I think your main entertainment is watching my life,'' Damian said.
''Of course, as a mother, the best thing is to see how my son develops, although many years ago I never imagined we would be in this situation,'' Sophia said, recalling the block of ice she had as a son.
Damian just gave her a slight smile, he had always been grateful for the care Sophia had given him throughout his life.
Natasha came down the stairs at a brisk pace and approached Damian and Sophia.
''See you in the afternoon'' said Natasha giving Damian a kiss on the cheek somewhat embarrassed by Sophia's presence.
''Goodbye,'' Natasha said to Sophia, smiling awkwardly at her.
"Aren't you going to give me a kiss too?'' Sophia said, pointing to her cheek.
Natasha was a little embarrassed not knowing if she was serious or not, she finally walked over and said goodbye to Sophia giving her a kiss on the cheek before quickly leaving.
''Isn't my girl adorable?" asked Damian laughing as he saw the slight surprise on Sophia's face.
"It's really adorable," Sophia laughed softly.
''Well, I'll go out for a while too,'' said Damian, getting up.
''Where are you going?'' Sophia asked curiously.
''I'll go see Jen, I need her to do me a favor'' said Damian.
''Hm, go carefully'' Sophia said.
Damian just gave her a faint smile before disappearing.
Damian appeared above the temple in Nepal where Jen frequented, from above he could see some disciples training.
He disappeared again and appeared where Jen was, she was talking to some teachers who became alert when they saw him but when they recognized him they calmed down, Damian often saw Jen so almost everyone knew him.
Jen looked speechless at Damian for his interruption, he usually called her before coming over.
''Well, I think we should continue this conversation another time," Jen said with a faint gentle smile.
''Yes, Ancient One'' said the teachers before leaving the room, some looking at him suspiciously.
''It's unusual for you to come unannounced,'' Jen said, totally changing her attitude and giving him an annoyed look.
''I wonder what they would think if they saw their saint with that attitude," Damian scoffed.
"Tell me what you want," Jen said without answering.Th.ê most uptodate novels are published on n(0)velbj)n(.)co/m
"Jen, we are very close friends, almost like brothers, right?" asked Damian looking at her affectionately.
''Please stop, you're giving me the creeps,'' Jen said, looking at him in disgust.
"Can I borrow your time stone for a while?" said Damian, taking Jen's hand and looking at her pityingly.
''You finally showed your true colors by approaching me so many years ago'' Jen said looking at him with a cold expression.
''It's too late now, I already have the stone in my possession'' said Damian, showing her a glowing green stone in his hand with his best attempt at a malevolent smile.
"When?'' Jen said as she checked her neck, she really didn't know when, she guessed when he took her hand off.
''What do you want it for'' Jen said with annoyance, she couldn't believe they actually took the stone from her.
''I promise I'll get it back to you today, I'm not sure how long it will take for what I need'' Damian told him sincerely.
Sigh
''Damian, I trust you, so don't fail me," Jen said, over the years she had come to consider Damian her friend.
''I'll be right back, don't stress while you don't have the stone, I heard that stress can cause hair loss'' Damian said, advising her seriously before disappearing.
''You fucking bastard'' said Jen very annoyed, sometimes she really wanted to fill her body with swords.
....
Damian appeared in space with the time stone, he planned to absorb its power just like with the space stone, he hoped that by doing this his familiar could evolve so he could leave more at ease.
He summoned his third familiar and a giant ethereal blue dragon appeared.
''It's a surprise,'' Damian said, smiling slightly.
"Come on, tell me about it," Carol said as she sat down next to Damian and tugged on his arm.
''No, but I'll tell you it's something you've wanted for a long time,'' said Damian, smiling ambiguously.
Carol couldn't help but blush at the thought of some things.
''Pervert'' Said Ana looking at her speechless.
''Shut up, you don't know what I'm thinking'' Said Carol looking annoyed at Ana.
''You might as well let it be a surprise,'' Damian said.
''Tsk, fine'' Carol said, annoyed.
''I wonder how Natasha will do on her first day'' Damian said.
''You talk like she's going to school,'' Carol said, rolling her eyes.
....
Natasha happily left her new home in one of the cars she found in the garage. She was happy with the idea of going home, something she hadn't had in many years.
Natasha drove to the SHIELD offices before presenting her ID and heading to the parking lot.
After entering, she went to report to Director Fury, which was the last instruction he gave her.
Natasha walked down the long corridors until she reached the office and knocked on the door.
"Come in," Fury said.
Natasha entered the office where she saw Fury looking over some papers as she stopped in front of his desk and he looked up.
''So, Agent Romanoff, were you able to find a residence?'' Fury asked casually.
''That's right, a very nice one'' Natasha said with a slight smile.
''Oh?, that's nice'' Fury said, a little surprised.
''Sir, Damian told me that it is possible that the Red Room still exists,'' said Natasha with a more solemn face.
Fury couldn't help but frown deeply, if Damian said that it's very likely that the organization still exists but he's confused since Draykov is supposed to be dead, he can't understand who took the reins.
''I will look into it, if he said that then it's very likely,'' Fury said.
''My family...'' Natasha said hesitantly.
''I'll try to find out about them, but I don't think we'll have many results, if Dreykov survived he must have gone deep into hiding after your assassination attempt'' Fury said in annoyance.
''We can only wait,'' Natasha said with a sigh.
Knock Knock
''Come in'' Fury said as he heard someone knocking on his door.
Natasha and Fury watched as Clint entered the room and greeted them with a slight smile.
''Sir,'' Clint said to Fury.
''Agent Barton, as I had told you, Agent Romanoff will be your new partner, so remember to show her the ropes,'' Fury said.
''Of course,'' Clint said with a nod.
''Then you are dismissed,'' said Fury.
Natasha and Clint nodded before leaving the office.
''So how did it go with Damian?'' Clint asked casually.
''It was really nice'' Natasha said with a slight smile.
''Should I call you her majesty now?'' Clint asked mockingly.
''Maybe when I get married in the future,'' Natasha said with a laugh.
"How sure you are," Clint said, grimacing.
''So tell me, how do things work at SHIELD?'' Natasha asked.
''I don't think it's much different than what we're used to, we're just given a mission, we finish it and that's it," said Clint.
''Although the work varies a lot, there are busy weeks and some weeks that are quite free," says Clint.
''Hm, I hope I'm not too busy so I can go home soon'' said Natasha smiling.
''You really are hopeless," Clint said with a sigh.
''When you like someone you'll understand,'' Natasha laughed.
Clint just kept silent as he knew how Natasha felt.
''Let's go get you SHIELD gear and maybe some guns?'' Clint said before leading Natasha toward the armory.
-----
Guys, I've seen some people complaining about Natasha's personality and I understand them, it's just that this is a different Natasha, the Natasha from the movies is almost 30 years old, this Natasha is barely 21, I wanted to give her a more immature and naive air.
