"So, what brings you around here; this isn't your usual neck of the woods." Natasha asked while leaning up against the doorway, blocking the way slightly.

"Fury called and told me to relay a message to you. Are you going to invite me in?" May replied.

"This ought to be good. Come on in," Natasha responded as she stepped aside to allow her to come in.

A few minutes later as Natasha, Melinda, Laura, and the children were in the living room. Laura was obviously worried, "I know it has been a few years since I was at S.H.I.E.L.D, but this can't been good if Fury sent you out."

Natasha agreed by nodding, "I am actually a little annoyed that he sent you out."

"Don't, the message for me to give you was, sending back up out somebody is telling that person you want them to come home safe, not that you don't trust that." Melinda stated.

Natasha knew immediately, "Hall got under Fury's skin." and she smiled.

"You actually like your handler?" Melinda answered with an eyebrow up

"Robert does a nice job. Plus he knows how to annoy Tony or Clint. So that is always fun. So what is the story?"

"Clint was caught by the José Santa-Landoño cartel, they are holding him hostage. Agent Hall has been calling and bugging every government agency, to see if he can get a lead, well he got lucky with the DEA." Melinda paused for a second, "They have a mole there, the mole recognized Clint and relayed messages to Hall. Which he got to Fury, but now the cartel has sent 3 squads to kidnap you and the kids."

Laura immediately became concerned, and Natasha grabbed her hand. "Relax all you will be safe, I made that promise to Clint."

Melinda nodded, "Just to be on the safe side, there is a truck outside. Take it and go to town. A contact will meet you and take you to a safe house. You will wait there until Natasha, Me, or Fury, arrive to tell you it is safe, no exceptions. okay."

Laura nodded, so for the next ten minutes, with Natasha and May's help, Laura got into the SUV with the kids, and she drove off to town. "So who is she meeting with?" Natasha asked

Melinda looked at her, "Really?"

Natasha just smiled back, "Of course, Hill. So what is going on with the rest of the team?"

Melinda, "I think Hall and the rest of them are doing a rescue mission?"

Natasha just smiled, "So three squads, so 30 guys tops, right?"

Melinda "Sounds about right, machine guns, pistols, couple of shotguns, and not a fucking a clue that we are here."

"Wow, I almost feel bad for them,' Natasha, as May raised an eyebrow at her, "I said almost." the widow said with a smile.

As the quinjet streaked to Columbia, Robert and Steve were going over the plan, "Tony and Thor, you have air support. Thor, do you see the red areas?" Robert pointed to a map.

"Yes, they are away from the main attack area," Thor observed, looking down at the map.

"Correct, you are going to light these up first; they are cocaine fields. Burn them to the ground. Then join the rest of the battle and knock out these towers." Robert directed, before turning to Steve. "Steve, you will be on the ground with some DEA Agents and myself. We'll taking care of ground forces."

Steve nodded, "Yes Sir."

He turned to Banner after nodding, "You don't have to join in, we can do his without you."

"Actually, I would like to be involved; the other guy wants to help to get the little hawk back." Bruce replied while looking a little green.

"Right, I am not going to tell the Hulk no for now." Robert told Bruce before looking at Loki, "Loki, you are on recovery."

"Huh, I am sorry but I am not sure I understand?" The Demigod admitted with a confused look.

"Teleport your ass in and rescue Clint," he clarified before pausing and addressing them all. "If anyone says 'Robin Hood', please don't kill him; that is the mole."

Loki frowned a little, "Sure put restrictions on who I can and cannot." He looked at Robert, putting on a fake pout.

Steve looked around, his eyes landing on each member of the team, "Avengers, let's get our man back."

The squads of men wearing camouflage clothes-there were only eighteen of them-were walking at a controlled and cautious pace. They had no idea that the cartel whom they were loyal to was beginning to be destroyed right now; they were under radio silence. As they slowly walked to the house they spread out to circle the building. This way they would all arrive at the same time and surround them, allowing no room for escape.

Natasha and Melinda waited in the trees until the men walked past them. They slowly dropped down and smirked at each other.

Natasha went to the left and Melinda went to the right, slowly staking each victim from behind. None of the guys knew what hit them, some of them got slit across the throat, others got punched out or others were killed in a more creative way. There was only five remaining by the time they reached the front yard; they were very confused on what had happen to the rest of their team. Suddenly they saw two women walk around from the front of the house both dressed in black; from the moonlight, they could tell one had red hair and the other had black hair.

"If you were smart you would lay your weapons down and surrender." The redhead spoke.

The men looked at each other uncertainly, "Why should we, the rest of our team will be here shortly." One of them shouted in response.

"No they won't." The other woman informed them, "We can assure you of that."

The men looked around, they could not see anyone, except the two women-who had very cold stares on them. Most of the team were unsure on what to do, considering backing down, however, that wasn't the case for the one in the middle.

Pedro was the oldest, he had been with the cartel for fifteen years and had been a killer for over twenty years. He stepped forward, signalling to the others to remain in position, "Creo que sé de ti . Eres la leyenda, la mujer de la muerte?" (I think, I know of you. Are you the legend, woman of death?)

Natasha answered him, "Sí." (Yes.)

Pedro instantly replied, "He estado en el negocio por un tiempo muy largo. No tiendo a tomar decisiones precipitadas." (I have been in business for a very long time. I tend not to take hasty decisions.)

Natasha nodded, "Es sabio; Si usted desea vivir, entrega. Su empleador se hace. (That is wise; if you wish to live, surrender. Your employer is done.)

Pedro looked at the woman, he knew who she was, he knew the tales, the legends. The Black Widow is in front of them. The other woman, he did not know, but she must be as deadly as her. "Quiero vivir, Negro Viuda. Coloque sus armas hacia abajo hombres." (I wish to live, Black Widow. Lay your weapons down, men).

He stepped forward and knelt down, laying down his machine gun. He then put his other knee on the ground and placed his hands behind his back.

The other men were stunned; Pedro had never done this before. They were much younger than him. But Pedro was in charge, and those were the rules of the cartel. Failure to follow the leadership of the group would result in death. Therefore they copied the movements of him.

Melinda look at Natasha, "Wow, I am surprised; men with common sense."

Natasha smirked as she slipped her cell phone out and called Fury for them to be removed and detained. A special team would come out to remove the bodies.

The battle raged on, the cartel had no chance; they were easily picked off by Iron man targeting system. Thor fried the all the fields of cocaine before taking care of the helicopters which attempted to take off; they didn't get very far. The Hulk was smashing all of the vehicles and tanks, stopping any transportation out of there.

Jose was in the cell with Clint, "My friend, I think your friends are here."

Clint just smirked weakly, "About time, they must have stop for drive through."

Jose suddenly drew his weapon at the appearance of a man, seemingly to appear from nowhere; he had knives in his hands.

"You have one chance to say the right thing?" Loki offered, his tone warning.

Jose looked at Clint, he tried to think; what could he say that they would know that he was the mole? A realisation hit him as he pointed to Clint, "Robin Hood."

Loki reluctantly put down his weapons, but relaxed and smiled, "Good choice of words." Loki waved his hand and the chains-which held Barton's arms-broke apart.

Clint was not expecting it and he fell face first on to the floor. "Thanks for the warning, Jackass." He groaned out on the floor.

Loki's immediate response was to simply shrug his shoulders before he bent down to help Jose pick Clint up. His eyes roamed over Clint's bruised and cuts body.

"Well, don't you look not to bleed on me," Loki commented. "Blood really is a pain to get out of this clothing."

"Whatever." Clint snarked. "I have had worse done; they are amateurs here," he added, insulting his captures.

Loki just shook his head, "And you do this for a living for what reason, again?"

"S.H.I.E.L.D. has an awesome benefit and retirement package. Ugh, I think, I am going to be sick." Clint moaned.

"Right, how silly of me, I forgot about the retirement. Assuming you live that long." Loki looked at Jose, "You come here and wrap your arms around my waist. We are leaving now." Jose took the words to heart and quickly walked behind Loki and wrap his arms around the man's waist.

A few guards came running in the cell, they raised their guns to fire. Loki and the two men disappeared into thin air. The guards all looked at each other, they all nodded at each other; If they would live through this, they would not speak a word of it to anyone.

-x-x-x-

Loki appeared on the quinjet, and notified the rest of the assault force that Clint was alive and secure with the mole. Ironman helped the DEA hack into all the computers to get the information.

The Hulk continued to smash the rest of the vehicles of the enemy. Steve and Hall approached the hulk slowly, and asked if Banner could come back to help Clint out; The Hulk snorted at first before nodding. He sat down and started to transform back. A little while later, Banner had change into some scrubs, and was looking at Barton as he drank some soda and continued to slap Tony's and Thor's hands away from his food.

Steve was talking to Jose about the undercover assignment. Hall had just sat down, watching the craziness of the team; he just smiled as he realised he wouldn't want it any other way. Robert got out his phone and set a message, "Hawk is free, but will need some healing."

A few seconds later, he heard his phone go off and look it, is was a text, it said, "Assignment complete, coming home." Robert just smiled, and silently thank god that everyone was safe.

Laura pulled up to the house, she saw the two women sitting on the deck talking to each other. She got out of the truck and helped her children down to the ground. Nat and May met her halfway. "Well how bad is it?" Laura asked casually, she was used to all of this.

"Clint is alive and will need sometime to recover, but then he will be home." Natasha answered.

"Did they get to the house? How bad it is?" Laura inquired, she wanted to know if there were any dead bodies laying around; she didn't want her children seeing them.

"No, and everything has been cleaned up and the forest as well." Melinda replied.

"And our secret."

"No one knows, there were five survivors, but they will be taken care of and never bother you again." Natasha promised.

"Thank you. I wish I could repay you." Laura said, while watching the children run around freely as they played in the yard.

"It's okay. Nat was telling me that you make a mean apple pie," Melinda commented, hinting.

Laura laughed, "Yes. Clint says that it is to die for. Come on in, I will make one up for you guys." She led them into the house.

Clint's pov

" I'm glad to hear that you and kids are safe. Good I was so scared even though, I knew Nat was there." Clint finished the conversation with his family. He knew he had something to do and it needed to be done now. "Jarvis, where is Robert now."

"Agent Barton, Agent Hall is on the common floor with the rest of the avengers, shall I ask him to meet you." Jarvis responded.

"No, I will get himself." As he walked to the elevator for his room. Robert and him had a rough start. He didn't trust him that much. But over time with battles and down time. Agent Hall has proven time and time again that he only care about them. Whether was someone in danger or someone needing a favor, he was always there to help.

Agent Hall had stepped in, when Clint couldn't have asked him. Natasha probably would have okay. But Robert had gotten to Fury and send her help. So that way she would be safe. Clint couldn't ignore that amount of heart. It was time for him to accept the agent into his trust. But he was going to have a little fun.

So as the elevator doors opened up and Clint stepped off the lift. He saw Tony,Pepper, Bruce, Betty,Steve, Jane, Thor, Loki, Darcy,and Natasha. All in the room and there by Steve and Jane, was the newest member of his family.

So with his meanest voice he gather up he yelled, "Hall! I want to talk you, alone, now!"

Robert's pov

"Hall! I want to talk to you, alone, now!" Clint yelled as he got off the elevator. Clint was released from Medical the day before, after being there for nearly a week to recover from his injuries. However, now, it appeared he was pissed off and wanted to have some words.

Robert was hanging out with the rest of the team in the common room discuss random crap. "Right, well let's get this over with now." He stood up from his chair and walked over to the elevator. Steve started to get up, but Robert motioned to him that it will be okay.

Robert and Clint got on the elevator and went down to Clint's and Robert's floor. As they got off together, "Jarvis can please mute all recordings for a little." He asked.

"Certainly, Agent Hall, going mute now."The A.I. replied

Robert turned to face Clint, "Okay, what d-" was all he said before getting interrupted by Clint's actions. He was pulled into a bear hug, Robert was for a lost of words.

Clint pulled away and looked the agent in the eye "You told Fury that there was only five or six people on the planet that I trusted. Well, you've just made that list."
