Chapter 347 - A Chat With Flavia & Red Room (III)...

[POV Reo]

"Umm... so what are we doing in Budapest?" I asked curiously. Well, I didn't mind going around with Nat and Dora, in fact, I would like to go around the world with them but I was simply curious.​​

"I am here to free my sister from Dreykov's control" Nat said with a smile on her face... did she just sister?? In the movies, she never had a sister... even in the comics, she had no sisters... only brothers, who were presumed dead.

(A/N: Remember Reo was born before the Black Widow movie came out)

"...She isn't my real sister... when we were small she posed as my real sister during missions and then we went through Red Room's training together..." Nat explained... she must have noticed my weird looks.

"Baby Widow in sight..." from the side, Dora muttered.

"We never decided on that code name..." Nat grumbled...

"...You are the big bad Black Widow... and she isn't strong like you so Baby Widow" Dora said like it was a matter of fact... Nat decided not to humour Dora.

"Pish... I think she is angry" seeing Nat react like that, Dora loudly whispered into my ears.

"Dora... I can still hear you" Nat said in an annoyed tone. Dora started to whistle while looking in another direction... "She isn't alone... two more Widows are shadowing her" Nat said and started to contemplate...

"So, what are we going to do about the others?? Off them??" Dora asked making gestures of slashing throat... Nat simply shook her head.

"No... we free them from Dreykov's control... if they are still loyal to the Red Room then we off them... and we will do the same with my sister too" Nat said in a serious tone... Dora also turned serious and nodded her head.

"I am simply going to wait up here..." I said and both of them nodded their heads and after that, they jumped off the room... leaving behind the thermal binoculars for me.

All of a sudden a sparkly golden portal appeared beside me... I was kind of expecting this already. "Good morning Reo... I believe that yesterday was quite productive for you" Flavia said while matching potato chips.

"That I did... I got two Infinity Stones... you already knew that... I also freed Hela Odinsdottir, thankfully she isn't a mindless warmonger" I said in a neutral tone and Flavia simply smirked after hearing my words.

"I have some records about her... most seemed vague and they mentioned her as the Advent of Death" Flavia said and picked up the thermal binoculars to see the fight going on in front of us. Nat and Dora have finally engaged with three brainwashed Widows.

"...Those records aren't that wrong... after all, she had killed trillions... Odin raised her to be a conqueror... an unstoppable Harbinger of Death but Odin finally went soft but Hela refused to stop... so Odin locked her away" I said with a snort and Flavia gave me weird looks.

"...I won't say anything as long as she isn't trying to wipe off humans..." Flavia said with a shrug and put down the binoculars... the fight was finally over. The three brainwashed Widows were lying on the ground, knocked out cold. Nat and Fora had already erected notice-me-not wards before starting the fight.

"So what did you find?" I asked Flavia who looked at me and smiled.

"I did find several methods... the easiest would to be travel through the Mirror Dimension... even I could perform it... but I would need some time..." Flavia said and continued munching potato chips.

Nat finally made the three widows smell the Red Dust... Nat pointed towards the Widow on the left and Dora swiftly broke that Widow's neck... after that it was a touching reunion session between the two sisters. The other Widow agreed to help Nat and Dora. I saw that Nat typed something in her phone and put it back in her pocket.

My phone buzzed... I pulled out my phone and found a text from Nat... 'We are going to Seventh Circle Prison, Russia... we need to free someone before we can continue our plan' I read the text and put the phone back in my pocket.

"So... tell me Flavia, have you heard about the upcoming war??" I asked Flavia and she nodded her head with a solemn look on her face. I saw Nat, Dora and the other two entered Nat's portal... finding Nat's location with my Space Powers was a child's play. Both Flavia and I appeared above the Seventh Circle Prison, both of us were standing on air.

"I am really impressed... for a second I thought that I was going to fall down..." Flavia said with a relieved look on her face. "As for the war... I am happy as long as you are not going to wipe off humans... after all, I can't oppose you" Flavia said in a neutral tone... she finished the potato chips packet she had brought with her so she simply threw it away.

A small portal opened in front of her... she put her hand inside and pulled out another potato chips packet. Flavia started to munch on the chips... the two of us looked down and saw that Dora had already infiltrated the prison while mimicking one of the guards.

"How are the zealots??" I asked Flavia and her shoulders sagged in disappointment.

"They are currently stealing Artefacts from various museums so that they could power up the portal..." Flavia said in a sad tone. "I knew that they would turn out like that but it is still disappointing to see it with my own eyes" Flavia said and released a defeated sigh.

"So... are you finally going to kill them?" after a few moments of silence Flavia asked me.

I was slightly surprised due to her question... after all, I thought that she would want to keep them alive to challenge Strange, after all, she had said multiple times that she wants to dump her responsibilities on Strange. "...Don't you want them alive so that you could train Strange using them?" I asked and she smiled once again.

"...No... the future has changed drastically... I can no longer depend on those visions... this world is completely different from my visions..." Flavia said while shaking her head.

I thought about the Flavia said... all of sudden several explosions ripped through the whole prison. Dora could be finally seen walking out of the prison while she was levitating a middle-aged red-head man behind her.

"You know that killing the zealots won't work, right? Dormamu will simply get other servants..." I said and once again, Flavia nodded her head.

"I know... Dormamu won't stop because we killed off some of his pawns... he will keep trying. You need to deal with him permanently..." Flavia said and I nodded my head. I wasn't bothered that she said that I have to deal with Dormamu... after all, I had promised her that I would deal with the threats to this reality at her behest when she gave me the Time Stone.

Since she had given me the Time Stone willingly... I will keep my promise... and if Dormamu comes to Earth then it would also cause problems for me and Elysium... I have no hard feelings for Elysium but I have built that place from the scratch and I will be damned if I allow some noseless and formless being to destroy my creation.

"You know you are going to die, right?" I asked Flavia who kept munching on her potato chips. Even though we were talking on a completely different matter... our eyes were still on Nat's and Dora's group. They were currently talking with the man Dora had just rescued from the prison... Ah... I finally recognize him, that's Alexei Shostakor... better known as the Red Guardian...

"I am not even surprised that you knew about that... well, to be honest, I have lived long enough... don't get wrong... like anyone else, I don't want to die but if stopping Dormamu means my death then so be it..." Flavia said in a determined tone... I simply contemplated her words without saying anything...

[POV Nat]

"So what now?" Yelena asked me while I was busy with my thoughts.

"We need to free the other Widows before going after Dreykov or he will simply use them to run away..." I said in a serious tone and everyone agreed with me.

"There is also the Taskmaster... Dreykov's elite... we need to take care of her... the sooner the better..." Yelena said and I nodded in agreement, I have seen her files and she needs to be taken care of.

(A/N: The files didn't have the Taskmaster's name but her sex was mentioned there)

"We need to meet Melina Vostokoff too... she will be able to help us" Alexei said and once again I agreed but I am not going to trust anyone blindly... I need to be careful before approaching her, after all, she might be still loyal to Dreykov.

"She lives in Saint Petersburg... she will be able to get us in contact with the other Widows out there" Alexei said and I looked towards the others... they simply shrugged so I agreed with Alexei and opened a portal to Saint Petersburg...

"Let's go..." I said and I waited for everyone else to enter the portal... I entered the portal at last... we were outside a farm... I have picked up Melina's location from Alexei mind... so, directly opened the portal in front of her house.

"Except guest but knock them out..." I send a mental message into Dora's mind and she simply nodded her head. We walked up to her door and I already felt Melina waiting for us by the door with a handgun and knife in her hands... "That won't work Melina and I don't want to rough you up..." I said but Melina didn't seem to move from her position...

All of a sudden I felt several life signs enter my sensing range... ah... well, I have been expecting something like this...
