CHAPTER FOUR -----▹ 

"Let's go kick some ass and get some answers."

"So, how exactly are we getting in?" Kate and Iskra had hidden away, hoping to avoid the other guards that were rushing out, Iskra analyzed the area, "The vents?" Kate turned to look at the girl, "Seriously?" Iskra turned back to her, "Do you have a better idea?" Kate shook her head, "Alright then, vents it is."

Iskra easily climbed up into the vents, Kate on the other hand was the opposite of graceful, once she finally got into the vents the first thing she did was hit her head on the vents, "Ow." Iskra looked over her shoulder, "You ok?" Kate shot her a look, "Don't you say a word."

"Ok, ok, I won't," Iskra smirked, "If we don't hear from Sam and Bucky soon, we probably have a problem, right?" Kate asked, Iskra, nodded, "Yeah, probably." Kate used her elbows to drag herself forward, Iskra was much further than the brunette had gone, "How'd you get all the way over there?" the redhead glanced back towards Kate again, "Lots of practice." she paused, "Ok, let's try this one..." she muttered popping the cover off the vent, dropping down into the room, Kate watched from above her, "You do that a lot....that pose," Iskra shook her head to herself, "God, you sound like 'Lena." she muttered, Kate had a bit more of a crash landing, "Did you hear that?" an unknown man's voice spoke, and Iskra shoved Kate, back pushing forward against a wall, hidden from view.

"hi," Kate breathed, and Iskra rolled her eyes, and shushed the girl whose face was just centimeters from her. "I don't understand how you were unable to pin any charges on the Romanoff girl-" the same man spoke in a hushed angry tone, "I tried, if that Murdock guy didn't show up, I would've had her." Iskra recognized this voice, Detective Caudle. "What the hell?" she whispered, and Kate sent her a questioning look, "Detective Caudle, do better, or the next time we won't be having a civil conversation." the man's voice grew louder, "Yes, I understand." Detective Caudle's voice, tremored.

Iskra listen carefully as both sets of footsteps faded away, and she stepped back from Kate, "C'mon, we've got files to dig through, lots of them." she spoke referring to the shelves and shelves full of files. "You did just hear what I heard, right?" Kate questioned as the redhead pulled one of the boxes off the shelf, "Yep, it's a problem for another day, I can only wrap my head around so much information at once."

"And this," Iskra removed the lid off the box, "Is going to be a lot of information. Grab a box." Kate grabbed one of the boxes, and pulled out the first file, "So, what exactly are we looking for?" Iskra sighed, "I have no idea."

They went through boxes and boxes of information, and so far had found nothing helpful, not one clue. "This is useless," Iskra muttered, tucking a strand of red hair behind her ear, "Why is it always me, Kate? Why can't I just catch a break, it's been like this since...you know I can't even remember." Iskra sniffled, Kate wrapped her arms around her, "What is this really about Iz?" Kate asked softly, "Very few things in my life have been under my control, and I am...so sick and tired of everyone being able to hold things over my head, I never once had any interest in my biological parents...but now it's just one more thing that is out of my control." Iskra pressed her lips together looking up, "We're gonna clear our names, and find your Dad, Iskra," Kate spoke catching the witch's attention, "And then, you and I, we are going on vacation, somewhere far away from this damn city." Iskra smiled at her girlfriend, "Deal."

"Mini Romanoff," there was a lot of static but, Iskra could make out the statement, "Sam? Are you ok? We were getting worried." she said into the coms, "Bucky got us into a bit of a predicament." Iskra chuckled dryly, "James what did you do this time?" Iskra asked, "Well if you hadn't-" Bucky started, "Did you see that guy, your metal arm barely would've effected him as much as a jab in the side."

"Woah, woah, woah, Kingpin is here...now?" Iskra pressed, "Oh yeah, we told you earlier." Sam said, "No, no you didn't." Iskra said, "What do you mean? I said specifically, that-" Sam spoke but Bucky cut him off, "Our coms must've cut out." Iskra froze, "Ok be very careful what you say then, because if there was an interference, they could be listening."

"Iskra, I think we have a problem," Kate whispered, grabbing her girlfriend's arm, Iskra turned to see the guards they had held off running passed the door of the room they were currently in, "Ok, yeah, we've got go, like now, James you were right this was an awful idea-" Iskra spoke quickly, "Woah, woah, woah, you're the one who made the plan-" Bucky said, "Whaaaaat?" Iskra spoke...totally innocent. 

"Ok, back to the vents?" Kate asked, "Yeah, yeah." Iskra pushed Kate forward with a spark of purple energy, this time Iskra gave Kate boost to get into the vents, the redhead turned to see the disarrey of the room, she put the boxes back with a few simple hand motions and got back into the vents.

"So what exactly is the plan?" Kate asked, as they crawled through the dusty vents, "The plan is screwed...that's what it is." she responded sarcastically, "No duh. What's the new plan?" Kate asked, Iskra didn't answer right away, pausing over one of the vents that leads too a room, that's when she spotted him, Wilson Fisk. "Try not to die." she muttered, and before Kate could process what the redhead was doing she opened the vent and dropped in, "Iskra!" she exclaimed quickly covering her mouth hoping that it didn't give away her location.

----

"Iskra Romanoff-Hill...What are you doing here?" he asked pointedly, not even turning around to see the redhead. Iskra took a deep breath, trying to calm her nerves, "I have to admit, it was brave of you coming here...I mean after the state you ended our last fight in." he spoke turning around, and Iskra nodded, "Well, you just heard yourself...the fight, that I ended." Iskra spoke.

"How is your little girlfriend?...Kate was it?" Iskra's smirked dropped, her eyes glowing a shade of purple, "You know the last time, we fought, I was quite injured...and my powers were, well practically non-exsistent. I may not be The Scarlett Witch or anything but, you have no idea what I'm capable of." Iskra taunted, "It's not smart to push me Iskra." he replied dryly, in two long strides, he placed his hands around Iskra's neck, beginning to choke her, which she quickly put a stop to sending him flying back into the wall.

Iskra coughed a little, before a smirk spread across her face, "Was that supposed to scare me?" she asked, she could see him getting angrier by the second, he stood up taking three steps towards her before she sent another blow of purple energy at him. "I'm sorry? Did that hurt?" she asked, "Not in the slightest." he spoke lowly, taking angry steps towards her, he sent a punch to her face, and a metallic taste hit her tongue, she laughed dryly standing back up straight, "You think I can't take a punch?"

Iskra pressed her lips together send another blast of energy at him, "You seem a little off your game today, something on your mind?" Iskra asked, false sympathy in her voice. Fisk yelled out in anger, he sent a kick to Iskra ribs sending her flying backwards but she broke her own fall with swirls of purple energy, she used her hand to wipe blood off her nose, a look somewhere between amused and angry stayed on her face. 

Iskra made her way to her feet her ribs aching, she sent blast after blast at him until he lay on the floor coughing breathlessly. "You're weak, Fisk." she stood over him, eyes glowing a deeper hue of purple then ever, she was using all of her pent up emotion to her advantage, he tried to kick the back of her knee hoping to make her fall over but she blocked it as soon as she saw the movement.

There was a crash behind her, and Iskra was silently hoping it wasn't her girlfriend falling through the vents, she turned around briskly "Damn it, Kate." she muttered, Fisk sent a kick to Iskra's leg but as soon as he made contact she teleported Fisk and herself out of there; it was the best way to keep Kate safe.

"NO!" Kate shouted, noticing what Iskra had done, "Iskra you're going to get yourself killed one of these days." Kate muttered, her eyes scanned the room, looking for some sort of clue of where her girlfriend had gone. The brunette's eyes settled on a box, it sat on top of Fisk's desk, she walked over to it, opening it up. She flipped through the files, and was losing hope until she saw it, a folder labeled, Iskra Romanoff-Hill.

Kate let out a sharp breath, the brunette opened the folder, "It isn't your place, you shouldn't read it." Kate muttered to herself, pushing the file away, she spun in the office chair once, before her eyes landed on it again, "Fuck it." Kate read the contents of folder, a soft gasp fell from her lips as the folder fell from her hands hitting the desk with a slap. She pulled out her phone, immediately dialing a phone number, 

"We have to talk."
