Both of them were close enough to snatch the weapon from their opponent. and they both did that. Natasha snatched Yelena's gun while Yelena snatched Natasha's gun and they both got into a stalemate for a moment.
Then they both started moving, Natasha hit Yelena's gun with her forearm and disarmed her, while Yelena kicked Natasha's gun away. At the same time, Nat punched Yelena in her throat which was blocked by Yelena's arm. They both fought for a few more minutes, exchanging more and more blows, destroying the kitchen in the process. After a while, Yelena grabbed a knife and attacked Natasha with it.
At this point, Natasha decided to finish it as she was done with her probing and knew that Yelena wasn't compromised. How did she know? A fight with someone tells a lot. And someone like Yelena who'd trained with Nat for years in the Red Room was easily readable by Natasha.
So what did Nat do? She took the knife from Yelena and let her stab her in the stomach. Taking advantage of Yelena's momentary shock at the moment, Natasha grabbed her in a chokehold and flipped her over, subduing her.
"Never let your guard down, Yelena. Unless you're sure that your enemy's finished." Nat lightly admonished her. Alex could block high-caliber bullets without letting Natasha feel a thing, a kitchen knife was nothing.
"You seem to have gotten some tricks up your sleeve…" Yelena tapped out.
"Guess, I do." Nat smiled while reminiscing about her times with Yelena. She threw the knife to the side and got up, offering Yelena her hand. She gave nat a look for a few moments before grabbing Nat's hand and pulling down.
"Real mature…" Nat had an amused smile as she just pulled Yelena up instead. Nat's physical stats were more than enough to completely take care of Yelena without any problems.
"Did the Avengers make you Captain America now?" Yelena asked with a frustrated edge in her voice.
"Something like that…" Nat smiled a smile that had many implications, "You've grown up…" Nat had a fond smile on her face.
"No shit…" Yelena didn't seem so fond.
"Why did you come to Budapest, Yelena…" Nat asked. Yelena got up and walked back to the kitchen. She pulled out a bottle of vodka and poured herself a drink.
"I didn't know if you'd come or not." Yelena shrugged as she chugged the entire glass before filling up another one.
"Tone down on the vodka. These aren't shots." Nat snatched away the glass from her and chugged the neat vodka herself.
"Whatever." Yelena started chugging the vodka directly from the bottle.
"This isn't exactly a safe spot, Yelena." Nat was annoyed and snatched the bottle from Yelena who rolled her eyes.
"Question. What kind of bullet does that?" She pointed at a spot that was marred by holes made from Hawkeye's arrows.
"Arrows. Why did you call me here? I don't think that you needed to bait me about the Red Room just for a sisters' reunion." Nat finally got to the point.
"What do you mean bait?" Yelena asked with a genuinely confused tone.
"What else, if not bait? The Red Room's been gone for years. Dreykov's dead. I killed him." Nat told Yelena, walking after her who went into a closet that was filled with guns. Yelena was loading up. It seemed that she was expecting to get into a fight.
She scoffed, "You don't actually believe that, do you?" Yelena looked back at Nat only to see genuine confusion on her face, "…You really do believe that."
"Dreykov's dead," She said with finality, "It took almost destroying the entire city just to get to him."
"Tell me what happened. Tell me exactly." Yelena asked. Her tone gave Nat an ominous feeling. At this point, she understood what Yelena was getting to, but she didn't want to accept it.
"We rigged bombs—" She was interrupted by Yelena, "Who's we?" She asked.
"Clint Barton. And Shield. Killing Dreykov was the final step in my defection." She said.
"Simple as that…"
"Yeah, sure. Simple. If that's what you call imploding a 5-story building and then shooting it out with Special Forces…" Nat went back to the kitchen and grabbed the bottle that she'd left there before drinking large gulps of vodka while explaining the details to Yelena.
"And you saw the body? Confirmed the kill?" Yelena asked further.
"There weren't any bodies left," She said, [You're getting intoxicated, Nat. There's a fight coming.] She heard Alex's voice in her head. She knew that there would be a fight soon, judging by how Yelena was gearing up.
"You're forgetting—" Yelena was about to continue but there was an explosion that interrupted her. And with that, a team of 4 women entered Natasha's Budapest safe house.
"You were tracked?!" Nat said as she walked out in the open, uncaring about the assaulting team. At the same time, her casual leather jacket and jeans morphed into her Black Widow combat suit. Yelena didn't notice the absurd change in Nat's clothes as there was a lot of dust that flew up after the explosion, naturally hiding Nat.
The four women had come geared up and were easily able to spot Nat, but she'd already changed her clothes. The four pointed their weapons at Nat and started shooting. At the same time, Nat released two taser blasts from her wrists and incapacitated two of them before they could start shooting.
The other two started firing at Nat. And Natasha just dodged all of their bullets, courtesy of Alex sharing his sixth sense with her. Without delaying too much, she was upon the other two within a moment's notice and beat the two of them up with her superior combat skills within a few seconds flat.
"What the fuck?!" Yelena who'd just made her way to the area of the fight was extremely surprised to see the four women taken care of by the time she arrived.
Suddenly, Natasha pushed Yelena to the side with such intensity that it made her collide with the wall behind her, "What the hell, dude!" Yelena screamed and at that instant, there was the sound of a gunshot that was shot at the exact spot where Yelena's head was a moment ago.
"Thank me later. We need to go." Nat said and grabbed Yelena's arm, pulling her away from the apartment and to the corridors of the complex, "I assume you have a getaway planned?" She asked Yelena.
"Yeah, I do. East side of the building, there's a motorbike." Yelena told Nat as she struggled to keep up with Nat's insane speed.
Just as Nat made a turn, she ran into two more women that were blocking the duo's way ahead, "I'll take left." She told Yelena and attacked the one on the left while Yelena took the one on the right.
By the time Yelena was done with her opponent, she looked over at Nat who was already looking at her, "How long have you been done?" She asked.
"A while. I see quite a few glaring problems with your fighting style." Nat commented as they both started running again.
"Condescending much?" Yelena didn't appreciate Natasha's comment.
"I call it constructive criticism," Nat said. Her attitude was different from Yelena's, she was calm and confident in her abilities to get out of the situation unscathed.
Yelena didn't have time to roll her eyes and reply as they reached a viewing area that had a view of the rooftops of the many houses. There were 5 people that were running toward them from the hallway so they broke through the glass and kept running.
"Yelena, duck!" Nat warned her again. And Yelena listened to her without hesitation, just as she ducked, a bullet was fired.
"How are you doing this?" Yelena had to ask.
"Sixth sense," Nat said.
"Fine. Keep your secrets." Yelena grumbled as she looked back. They'd lost their initial pursuers, but they now had someone else on their tail, "She's one of the pass-outs." She informed Nat.
Nat didn't say anything, still coming to terms with the fact that the Red Room was still a thing.
They kept running to their destination, hopping across rooftops until finally, they reached a sort of inner courtyard area where the rooftops ended.
"Where, now?" Nat had just asked but Yelena grabbed her hand and had her grab onto a chimney pipe before unclasping it from the roof. The chimney slowly started falling, but its slow pace gave their Black Widow assailant a chance to catch up. Just as they were off the building, the assailant jumped in hopes of reaching the duo. But she fell short.
Thankfully for her, Natasha grabbed her. She needed answers. The girl slashed her knife at Nat's hand but it was no use as it couldn't pierce through the glove that Nat was wearing.
By then, the chimney pipe fell to the next building, acting as a bridge to a window within the building.
Yelena was holding the pipe higher so she fell into the window, breaking through the glass but Natasha was a little lower so she had to grab onto the ledge. She then hoisted herself up from that ledge while bringing the unknown woman with her.
Just as she crossed the ledge, Yelena shot a red gas at the face of the woman that she'd just pulled up.
