She huffed and went off to her thinking spot.
She hated this. She didn't want to go on a mission with her. She didnt even like being in the same room as her half the time.
Ugh Steve. I hate you for this.

"Only because it is never /just/ training with you! You ALWAYS have to prove yourself. Always have to try and be the best."
She sneered.
"How about for once you stay out of /my/ way? And we can pretend we worked things out and go back to ignoring and staying away from eachother."

Ugh. It didnt.
When dismissed she got up and walked out ahead of Crystal. Grumbling under her breath.
When out of range of Steve she spoke up.
"Thanks for that. Now you got us in a situation Neither of us wants."
Nat turned and said to her.

Natasha sighed and slowly got up off the ground.
Pushing past Crystal to follow Steve out of the gym.
Giving a glare to Hawk as she passed.
Of course they're in trouble now.

"Okay. I give. I'm finished."
She managed to whisper out. Still breathing hard.
"You win." She looked at Crystal.

A groan and a grunt fell from her lips as Crystal tackled her to the ground.

Except they had both improved since then. They were equally paced, equally matched, stronger, faster, just better than before.
It was frustrating beyond belief. Natasha wanted just once to prove herself. But she didnt like using Phoenix

She needed to beat Crystal.
She blocked the hit to the face easily enough but didnt catch the foot attack until it was too late.
Natasha stumbled backwards but managed to stay standing.

She so wanted to complain and ask to trade but she knew Steve wouldnt go for it. So she just accepted the fact she would have to train with Crystal.

She took a deep breath and sighed. It had been a while since they had to train together.
She didnt like training with an audience..it brought too many memories of the red room.
She nodded and looked over towards Crystal.
"Ready when you are." She

While steve spoke Nat started warming up a little.
Small stretches, loosening up a bit. Away from Crystal. She really didnt want to train with her today.

"You and me both. I seriously missed you. And pizza." She laughed.
"You and me both. I seriously missed you. And pizza." She laughed.

The problem? Frostbite. She was constantly an relentlessly pitted against her.
Her superiors wanted a show. Which they got when Phoenix came out. It was a sight to see.
In the present Phoenix wasnt around much.
Luckily.
Natasha an Crystal still kept their distance from eachother.
