Lost Memories

Natasha doesn't follow Bruce, partially because he doesn't want her to and partially because she can't. He covers his tracks so well that she'd be proud if she wasn't so pissed (and maybe just a little hurt, but that doesn't get her anywhere, so she tucks it away).

She throws herself into work, because there's always work. There's always one more mission. Bruce had been right about that, at least. The new Avengers need training and helping Steve train them gives her focus and purpose. It's all she can really ask for.

All that changes four months later when there's a Hulk sighting outside a town on the other side of the planet. There's a moment of hesitation when it comes on the new, but even Steve tells her to go and she does. She takes a jet and enough supplies for a few weeks and she goes to follow the trail.

Of course, after the nearly full day it takes her to get there, the trail is nearly cold. She has an idea. A radius.

Leaving her jet behind, she packs food and a sleeping bag in a pack and starts walking.
