Capítulo 136: Chapter 136
C 136
–Natasha Romanoff–
"ETA, 30 seconds!" The voice of the pilot called out over the intercom.
Natasha was sitting in the back of a Quinjet, with a lot on her mind. With only half of his Agents proving to be loyal, Fury had been deploying all of them around the clock. Natasha had led the raid against multiple Hydra bases so far with the intel they had gleaned from Sergeant Bucky Barnes. Needless to say, Steve was not happy when he found out the fate of his friend, who supposedly died back in World War 2. Natasha also wasn't exactly in Steve's good graces, at the moment, because interrogating Sergeant Barnes had been her job. He hadn't wanted Bucky to be interrogated at all, but the Winter Soldier had too much blood on his hands and too much potential information for SHIELD not to.
That's why Natasha was glad to get this emergency assignment. It was a way to get out of the current HQ Helicarrier–and therefore away from a pissed off Steve Rogers. Natasha could also finally see Layla again! Natasha had felt bad about how their 'relationship' had gone so far. They danced around each other and hooked up once, and then Natasha basically ghosted Layla. It wasn't on purpose, but that's what happened.
"We're touching down now. Friendly contact in sight. On the ground!" The pilot called out again. Natasha and a few other SHIELD Agents stepped out of the plane as soon as the hatch opened.
And there she was. Layla of the Fallen was standing in the middle of a damp field. She looked just as perfect and beautiful to Natasha as always. The way Layla's eyes lit up upon seeing her made Natasha flinch a bit. She felt even more guilty now…
Around Layla, Natasha noticed a few scattered unconscious people. These must have been some of the wizards and witches that Layla reported. They were the ones kidnapping SHIELD Agents and memory wiping them. There was also the remains of what looked to be a wooden shack. It had been destroyed by whatever flood had hit this area recently. Natasha wasn't sure where all the water came from though. Could Layla conjure water now? She'd have to ask.
"Natasha!" Before Natasha could realize what was happening, she found herself swept up in a tight hug. "Hi, Natasha! I missed you," Layla said as she held her tight.
Natasha was caught off guard!
Layla had gotten faster. Much faster! SHIELD originally had Layla's top speed clocked out just a bit above The Captain, but Layla had moved so fast there that Natasha's eyes couldn't even follow her!
Natasha hugged Layla back. She ignored the snickering the other agents gave her as they started checking over all the bodies around them. "Sorry I basically ended up ghosting you. The discovery of Hydra and just how entrenched they were in SHIELD and the government was really shocking. It was all hands on deck." Natasha said to Layla.
"It's alright." Layla replied. The Fallen Angel finally let her go.
Natasha was also surprised at how strong Layla was too. She couldn't have broken that hug if she tried with all her might! "I do want you to know, though, that I didn't consider that night to be just a fling." Natasha added.
"I'm glad! I didn't either!" Layla replied while avoiding Natasha's eyes. " I admit I was a bit lonely… at first…"
Natasha's eyes narrowed at hearing Layla say "at first." She also noticed the way Layla was suddenly trying to act so innocent. "And what do you mean by that?" Natasha asked. "Was there another woman?" Natasha honestly didn't mind if there was. She knew that she and Layla were not currently in an explicitly stated relationship. Natasha had also done a bit of reading up on Fallen Angels–with whatever lore she could find at least. One thing that always stuck out in her research was that Fallen Angels were pretty much all horndogs… With Layla's supernatural beauty, Natasha wasn't surprised if there was another woman out there.
Layla shifted in place. "There might have been one or two… or three."
"THREE!?" Natasha blurted out! Did Layla have no self-control!? It had only been two months! Natasha immediately changed her mind about not caring! "With who!?"
Layla listed them off, and Natasha didn't know what to think. "There's Hela, the Goddess of Death and Queen of Asgard. Then there's Sif, the Goddess of War and Fertility. And then there's Yasaka. She's a nine-tailed fox and basically the Yokai Queen of Kyoto on Earth DxD."
Natasha grimaced. Two of Layla's other lovers were literal goddesses, and the third one might as well be. She'd read some lore on nine-tailed foxes and if any of that were true, then they were really powerful! Natasha could admit to herself that she was feeling inadequate compared to three other women like that. She was just a slightly enhanced human after all. At least, that was the case until Layla leaned forward and kissed Natasha passionately.
The redhead spy was taken off guard momentarily before she kissed Layla back!
"Whooo! That's hot!"
"Damn! I guess Romanoff is off the market!"
"Huh? I thought she and Barton were a secret item. Guess I lost the betting pool…"
Natasha broke the kiss to glare at all the male Agents staring and hollering at her and Layla. One of her patented glares was all it took for them to immediately shut up! "Get back to work! Tie up all the unconscious magicals out here and search through the remains of that wooden shack for the others!" Natasha ordered them and they all immediately got to it.
Layla laughed at all the other agents scurrying off at her orders. "Who would have thought SHIELD Agents were such gossip queens?"
