Black Widow (Marvel's Avengers)

==Summary==
Originating from Russia, Natasha Romanoff was selected to become a spy at the age of five. Trained in the Red Room program, she learned various skills in espionage and combat. During her time in training, Natasha learned not to make friends or trust anyone, including her comrades. Natasha was also taught ballet by Special Services agent Iosif Stepanov, who treated her kindly compared to her other trainers. In her later life, Natasha regarded him as her best teacher. As she grew up, she developed her own form of combat, mixing the skills Stepanov had taught her with various martial arts. As a result of this upbringing, Natasha has had little-to-no formal education. Upon reaching adulthood, Natasha was cleared to operate for their government. Given the codename "Black Widow", she operated around the world on various missions, posing a ballet dancer. At some point, Natasha learned that Stepanov had been captured by the organization SHIELD for acting as a mule for a diamond smuggling operation. This, coupled with disillusionment with the Russian government, led her to defect to the organization.
Natasha Romanoff joined SHIELD, though genuine on her alignment, Natasha secretly planned to help Stepanov escape and settle down far from any governments' reach. Despite her past, she was allowed to join and train as an officer. Though she agreed with the government's ideals, Natasha refused to follow them blindly. After joining, Romanoff was trained as an officer under the direction of Nick Fury. Unlike the other recruits, she kept her previous codename, though this gained suspicions from the others. After a session where she defeated ten of the agency's best agents, Fury assigned her to under further training under the direction of officer Tony Masters. Within days, she realized he matched her abilities during fights, due to his photographic memory and pension of mimicking fighting styles. When Hydra agents were transferred to the helicarrier, Natasha prepared to break Iosif out, stealing security codes for the cells. However, the night she was planning, a riot ensued, forcing her to deal with it. Natasha was able to defeat the group just before Fury and the other SHIELD agents arrive to help. As Fury attempted to make the agents stand down, Masters refused, blaming her for the riot. As he presented evidence against her, Natasha realized he had mimicked her ballet abilities to slip past the security lasers, planning to blame her for the riot. Realizing he would have a height difference, she quickly deduced that be burned his shoulder and used a hidden blade to remove his pad. As Masters called for her arrest, Natasha revealed the deductions and his injury to Fury. As Masters fled, she fought and overpowered him, but was unable to stop his escape.
After watching him leave, Fury revealed he knew of Natasha had stolen the codes and confronted her on the intent. Reluctantly, she revealed her intentions to release just Stepanov and her connection to him. In return for her honesty, Fury released him and allowed her to set him up under a false identity. Five years later, Romanoff had become a member of the Avengers, working alongside Captain America, Iron Man, Hawkeye, Thor and the Hulk, though she never foresaw her association with the avengers lasting. She had also entered a relationship with Barton, though it ended at some point. Black Widow also developed a rivalry with Masters, now a mercenary calling himself "Taskmaster".
