Y/N's POV

And she was there, her long hair wich once was on her waist, now was short on the height of her ears, her skin aged and tanned, she probably spent time on the beach, the clithes were modern and all messed up on her body, like she didn't care,  that cynical and sarcastic look in her eyes, while her gestures were the same, humiliating any one near her, with that accent on her raspy voice.

-Hello...daughter.-She spoke like those were the weirdest words in the world, and, for the two of you, they were.

-You're...You're really here.-The world continued to spin around you.

-Of course I'm here, are you on drugs?-She mocked taking the a pair of red sunglasses off her face- Now, aren't you inviting me to come in?

The words couldn't even get out of your mouth, you didn't see her in such a long time, and now, all of sudden, she appeared in your life again, acting like nothing happened. She just continued chewing the gum in her mouth in an annoying and continued noise.

-That's...Your mother?-Steve asked holding your shoulders.

-I know, I look like her sister.-She bragged- And you are?

-What are you doing here?-I asked before Steve could answer.

She looked at me and frowned offended:

-So now I can't visit my daughter when I want to?

-No, you can't if you don't care about her it's been 12 years.-You answered sharply.

She looked around the people around you, staring curious at your conversation.

-You really want to make a scene?-She dared you.

-There must be a reason you came here...-You said between your teeth.

-Y/N...-Steve helf your hand and calmed you, while your mom observed interested in your attitude.

-What is going on here?-You heard his footsteps on the clean floor, the crowd aparted pretending they didn't want to know about the situation- Who is this woman?-Tony asked when he was already by your side.

-Darcy Y/L/N, Y/N's mother-She standed her hand but Tony didn't shake it, she pretended it wasn't her intention and kept it cool.

-Is it true Y/N? This woman's your mother?-Tont glanced at you serious.

You took a dedp breath, the woman in front of you impacient, nothing unusual, she has always bedn like that, you knew it pretty well.

-Yes...That's...That's my mother.

Tony had a concerned expression, Steve squeezed your hand in a way to say everhthing would be alright, while your Darcy looked victorious in your direction:

-So, where the hell do you live here?

🔹️

You opened the door carrying her bags inside your room, she stared at the furniture, grabbed some objects and continued with the gum on her mouth.

-Damn! You really upgraded since the last time I saw you...-She looked interested in the pot you put your jewels, you grabbed it took it away from her eyes.

-Dkn't think you're going to stay here.-You growled.

-That's how you treat your mother?

-The mother who abandoned me? Yes.

-What a rancorous and ungrateful kid...-She walked around and took a cigarette from her purse.

-Don't smoke in my room.-You grabbed it and throwed the cigarette in the bathroom's trash can.

-Did I teach you those manners?

-No, you teached how to light your cigars!

-Exactly. You became such a rebel child.

-Well let me tell you something, I'm not a child anymore! I'm 27 years old!

-Mothers always see their kids as babies.

-DON'T ACT LIKE YOU CARE!-You shouted.

You tried to calm down, put your hands in your face and closed your eyes for a second. "It's over. You have control of your life now Y/N. Don't let her take that from you." You thought.

-Anyway...How did yoy get in this tower? Are you sleeping with that guy...What's his name? The rich one...Oh yeah, Tony Stark, are you sleeping with him? He's actually hot.-She ignored your almost breakdown.

-No! I work here!

-As a hooker?

-As a secretary!

-Depending on the type it doesn't really have much difference.

-Well I just work if that's what you're wondering. I studied for it.

-You went to college?

You took a deep breath to don't scream at her again.

-Yes. I invited you on my graduation day.

-Don't remember it.-She acted like it wasn't important at all- Anyway, congratzzz. Now do you have whiskey or anything with alcohool?

-No.

-Shit you're so boring.

She sat on your bed and searched something on her purse, tipical, a bottle with alcohool.

-Want some?-She offered after taking a sip.

-No thank you.

-It's Rakı.

-I said no.

-More for me then-She turned the whole bottle fastly drinking- Ahh.-Dhe exhaled satisfied.

-Are you going to telk me why you'te here or not?

-Who was that guy?

-Who?

-The guy with you at the hall, tall blonde, sexy beard.-She gesticualted an imaginary beard on her face.

-Steve?

-That's what I'm asking.

-That's Steve. My boyfriend.-You just realized you introduced him as your boyfriend for the first time to someone, that had a nice feeling.

-Your boyfriend? He looks so...Mr.Perfect Guy.

-Well he is my boyfriend.

-You always liked the troublemakers.-She sniffed- Remember you liked that guy, what was his name? Jason? Jack? Whatever, he always wanted to get into trouble, and you followed him, he seemed "charming" you described.

-It's incredibke how you can remember this but not the most important monents of my life.

She lifted her shoulders indifferent, taking another sip and realizing the bottle was already empty.

-What happended? Do you need money? That's it?

-Nah-She answered.

-Then why are you here? Answer me!

-Fine!-She shouted. Took another cigarette from her purse and lightned it-  Your father. He died.

-...He...What...?

-He died. You know? Died, dead. Death. Buried six feet under ground.-She exhaled a perfect smoke spiral with her mouth.- Took him long enough. Jerk.

-H-How did he die?

-I just got the news from the police 2 weeks ago, they said it was natural causes.

-Two weeks...Oh my God...-You sat on a chair nearby still shocked.

-Why so suprised? He barely took care of you. When was the last time you saw him?

-When you left.-You spoke while holding his watch in your hands.-He seemed...fine.

-As you said it was a LONG time ago.-She rolled her eyes.

Your father was dead. Should you be...sad? You didn't feel sad, instead you felt like...emptiness inside your chest. Like a sensation of what you lost, if you could've been there for him, but at the same he wouldn't be here for you. Your mother noticed your distraction:

-That's his watch, isn't it?-Shd observed.

-...Yes...I found it through my stuff.-You answered.

-"Unsere Zeit wird kommen"-She spoke suddenly.

-What did you say?-You turned fastly to her.

-"Our time will come". That's what's written in it.-She exhaled more smoke peacefully.

-How do you know that?-You asked and she sniffed.

-I see you're still the same way.-She smirked.- Still clueless.

-What are you talking about?

-Look I'm tired, I need to sleep. -She eent to the window and throwed the cigarette away- I'm gonna sleep in your bed, you can go to your boyfriend's room right? Or you're still a virgin?

-Just...-You sighed.-Yeah, sleep here, whatever.

🔹️

-It was so...weird and terrfying at the same time.-You confessed while lying your head on Steve's chest.

-Are you sure you want her to stay?-He asked while passing his fingers through your hair.

-I don't.-You spoke.-But...I feel like I have so many questions...

-What tyoe of questions? That woman abandoned you Y/N.

-I know...But I just realized I've lost my father Steve.-Your words still felt unreal- I'd like to...know more about him.

-And you think she's going to tell you?

-Maybe. I'll talk with her tomorrow, if she doesn't say anything she's leaving.

-I still don't trust her.

-Neither do I.-You closed and tried to forget about everything, just concentrate in his body temperature, the sound of his hearybeat and stay luke that.

Steve's POV

At night you managed to escape from Y/N's arms, left her in the bed, and went to the special Avengers' meeting on the underground floor.

-Finally!-Tony said when you arrived- Where were you?

-With Y/N. She just fell asleep.-You answered and he rolled his eyes obviously irrtated.

-So, about her mother, what did she say?

-She wants to know about her father.

-Shit-He slammed the pannel.-I need to get rid of this woman then.

-No you won't.-Natasha spoke- She might know everything we need. Right? Pepper said she was crucial for the experiment.

-Of course she is. She gave life to Y/N!-Tony replied.

-So she's from Hydra?-Sam questioned.

-Probably. According to what Pepper found on Instanbul her real name is Irmak Von Sust, originally used as a hostage for the project C, a.k.a Y/N.-Bruce explained.- Both her parents were from Hydra, her father was the scientist who started the research.

-That means that, if she knows about her father, she discovers the truth about her powers.-Thor understood.

-It's not like her mother woulf literally say she's an experiment...right?-Clint asked.

-We don't know.-Tony spoke.- I thought this woman was dead. I...Don't know what to do.

The moment of tension was longer than  we thought it'd be. Tony always had a plan, but in that case, he was as lost as we were.

-Did you at least tried to convince her otherwise?-Vision asked you.

-I told her to send Darcy away...But she still wants to ask her.-I answered.

-Stubborn as always.-Nat muttered.

-I need to rake this woman from this tower. Tomorrow morning I'll do it.-Tony spoke fiercely.-Even if it's the last thing I'll do.

🔹️

Y/N's POV

-She can't stay.-Tony told you the next day.- Het her things and take her away. You are the only one authorized to stay here.

-I understand...But I just want to ask her--

-No.-He answered.-Take her luggage before I ask someome else to do it. Right now Y/N.

You felt angry, why couldn't he just let her talk with you? Why act that way? You didn't have much choice.

You entered and packed her things, she woke up, slowly and lazy, staring at you:

-Already kicking me out?-She said.

-Yes.-You answered.

-I don't even have breakfest?

-No. Let's go.-You pulled her out of the bed and walked with her through the hallways taking her bag.

That's when you bumped into Bucky.

He didn't see her yesterday, so looked confused at you both.

-Good morning Y/N...-He said.

-Mornin' beefcake...-Your mom looked at him up and down biting her lip.-Now, he looks your type.

-Mother stop.-You told her.

-That's your mother?-He asked.

-Shit, you two dated isn't it? I can see in his eyes.-She teased.- Why did you leave this stud? Being idiot as always.

-Stop!!

-Why is she here?-He asked remembering of the things you told him about her.

-She's already leaving.-You hushed.

-Good.

-I see nobody likes me here. My reputation procedes me.-She laughed.-But seriously you should reconsider your choice, he's hot.

-Oh My God shut up please.-You begged.

She just then noticed his iron arm:

-Oh never mind. He's a....deficient.

You raged inside, closing your fists, you pushed her through the hallways, and whispered to Bucky:

-I'm so, so sorry for her.

He grabbed your wrist.

-Are you okay?-He asked and your eyes met his.

-I...I am.

-If you need help, you know you can call me.

-Thank you.

He nodded and you left taking your mother with you.

🔹️

-Now, that's where we say goodbye?-She said while you were at the street waiting for a taxi.

-Yes. Forever now.-You answered.

-I see...

-Wait.-You took a paper from your pocket- I've found this...The same day I found father's watch, do you know what's written in this?

She took the paper and read, a half smile forming on her lips.

-Wow...This was written a long time ago.-She spoke.

-What is it?

-He wrote this for me. When I just had you.-She looked at you with nostalgia.- Want a translation?

-Yes!

-'Kay- She cleared her throat- Irmak, Do not forget our purpose.  Even if it fails.  greet the three-headed snake, untill the end.

What did that mean? Your mind runned inside looking for possible answers.

-Who's Irmak?

-Me.-She smirked.- That's my name.

-Excuse me?

-I'm turkish girl. My real name's Irmak, changed to Darcy to enter this damn country. Never wondered why I have thsi weird accent?

That...actually made a lot of sense. Both of your parents had accents, but different ones.

-My father was turkish too?

-He was german.

-German? H-How?

-Anyway.-She sighed- Do you understand this letter Y/N?

-No...

-Fuck you don't understand since you were a child. Listen-She grabbed your shoulders- You might think I'm crazy, but I don't have much time, those "friends" of yours don't want me to tell you the truth. But I came here for this.

-Truth?

-The Three-headed snake is Hydra Y/N.

Your heart stopped and everything around you seemed to stop as well.

-What...

-Listen with attention. You are not normal. I don't know the bullshit they told you, but all the weird things that has been happenning with you...All of them, were real. And you made them.

-No...how...how do you know what's happening you-

-I have people who told me.-She interrupted- You don't know how long I've waited for you to understand Y/N. How long I waited for you to show your true gifts.

-You're insane....

-No. I'm telling ypu the truth. But you've been brainwashed by those, so called heroes.

-I don't believe you.

-Then ask them. Ask Stark what is the Project C. Ask him about Hydra. Search again in his stuff. All this time Y/N, they wanted to hide the truth from you.

-That's not true...!

-It is. Just think.-The taxi arrived and sshe walked towards it- Ask them about Irmak and Mark. Who they were. If you want the answer I can give you this right now.

-Then say it.

-We are from Hydra.-The words vanished you- And we had the daughter who'd change the world. The time of the Three headed snake has come.

She entered the taxi, and before you coukd talk the driver speeded leaving, you ran after her in vain, not being able to reach her.

The whole world seemed to shake, flashabavks popping on your mind like crazy, a headache who killed you inside, making you fall on your knees.

"Do you still have contact with your father?" Tony asked on your first day at work.

"She needs to leave" he said earlier.

"You don't need to know about hydra" he used to say.

"PROJECT C!" The voices of the man on the tower and Vincent echoed on your mind.

"The three headed snake"her last words to you kept on your mind.

They lied.
