“ what the hell did you do? ” - Evie to MCU!Becca
“Mike likes extra sugar,” Becca says with a cheery shrug to Evie, wiping her hands on a towel. Michael, Mikhail. Nobody was creative anymore. Not like she was any different. As part of her programming, the Red Room gave her the name Rebekka Ilyinichna Balabanova.
Rebecca Barnes had lived many lives in her long life. A United States Army Nurse during World War II. A Black Widow for the Red Room. Despite being in triple digits, she still looked like she was 25. Her original memories did come back after being freed from mind control. So much had happened between 1945 and now. Much like her brother, Becca was working on atonement. Redemption, as a concept, didn’t sit right with her. To wipe out red, sometimes more had to be spilled.
Today, she was just Rebecca, waitress, at a diner off the side of a highway. One of the Red Room trainers had escaped the sinking ship and she had a score to settle. Picked up the waitressing gig a few months ago. Integrate with the locals. Today was finally the day to spike his coffee with something that was definitely not sugar. A slow poisoning. Enough time for him to go home and have a heart attack. She’d swing by later to confirm the kill. Stick around for a few more weeks and then be on the move again.
Unfortunately, someone noticed.
