Chapter 4
“Wow,” Tony said, staring at the utter destruction of the Scorpion Queen.
“Wow is right,” Sam agreed, standing next to him.
He could just make out the silhouette of the five Spiders. Widow would ensure that the enemy was defeated.
Sam and Tony waited as the five figures became six and they headed back to where Sam and Tony waited. There was a huff and Tony patted Widow’s horse when it came to stand next to him.
“So you saved the West,” Tony greeted them.
“Friends of yours Widow?” Spider-woman asked.
“Yeah,” Widow said, smiling at them.
“Are you coming back with us?” Arachne asked.
“No, not just yet, I’ll be there if you need us Spider-woman, but until then. Well, I’ve got to make sure Mr. Stark doesn’t end up unleashing a new threat upon the West.”
Silk stepped forward to clasp Widow’s hand. “You’re always welcome with us.”
“I know,” Widow said. "If you need me have MJ get in touch with Peter.“
"We will,” Spider-woman agreed.
“Take care of that Captain of yours.”
Spider-woman smiled at her, before her smile turned to the sixth figure, the only one not dressed in some sort of spider themed outfit. She cupped cupped the non-Spider’s cheek. “I will.”
The five women climbed on the carriage and disappeared in the setting sun. Widow turned back to look at the Sam and Tony. She shook her head and sighed. ”You’ve been following me around since the beginning Mr. Stark. Are you surprised to find that I’m not the main act of this story?”
Tony shrugged. “You may be a supporting player in Spider-woman’s tragic tale of love, but you’re star in my life.”
“Really?” Widow asked, glancing at Sam.
“I was thinking co-leads for his life and you can share the lead with Tony for mine. If you’re interested.”
Widow smiled. ”So you want me to get into a relationship with the two of you?”
Tony looked over at Sam, before turning and nodding. ”Yeah.”
Widow smiled and laughed, shaking her head. ”I must be insane.”
“We both know that you’re not, Natasha,” Tony said.
Widow’s head snapped to look at Tony.
“What you you think I wouldn’t figure it out?”
“I guess I shouldn’t be surprised,” Widow said and whatever formed the Widow costume faded away, leaving Natasha in typical waitress uniform.
“I think she’s prettier like this,” Sam said, taking a step forward.
“But no less intimidating,” Tony agreed.
Natasha stepped forward and pulled Tony into a kiss. It was passionate and far too short, but she pushed him away and pulled Sam into another kiss. That was really hot, in Tony’s mind. When she pulled away, she gave Tony a pointed look. Tony laughed as he tugged Sam into a kiss.
“Alright, gentlemen. I am exhausted. Let’s go home.”
“Yeah,” Tony agreed. "I don’t suppose you can magic up a carriage. I don’t your horse will carry the three of us.“
"Yeah, I think we can do that,” Widow agreed. It didn’t take too long for a carriage to appear. The three of them climbed in and the horse took off in the direction of Tony’s ranch.
“You know there’s no one around,” Tony murmured into Widow’s ear.
“Oh hell no,” a voice said in the direction of the horse. "I am not hauling three humans having sex. I’m drawing the line Natasha, I am drawing the line!“
Sam stared forward. ”Did your horse just talk?”
Natasha smiled. ”Yeah, he does that.”
