The false Black Widow has been revealed as Anya, daughter of
the former Headmistress, and she has the real Black Widow at her mercy. Anya
has been killing in Natasha’s guise to promote the creation of a new Red Room,
as protection from the old Red Room’s best agent, “rogue” Natasha. The villainess
also explains that she had a special virus designed to block memories
introduced into Nat’s recent body transfer. With that, Nat sets off a flash
grenade and overpowers Anya as Iron Man appears and Hawkeye reveals he is still
alive. This was all part of a scheme cooked up by the heroes to discover what
had affected Nat’s memories in order to find a remedy. Winter Soldier and
Yelena Belova also come out of the shadows as Nat explains she did the one thing Anya
would never expect: she trusted her friends. Anya starts shooting and flees and
Nat follows, insisting on doing this alone. There is a fight, Anya gets her
hands around Nat’s throat—and then she is hit by a very familiar shield. Nat
picks it up and clocks her again with it. And then Captain America shows up to
claim his property….
With the knowledge of how her memories were corrupted, Tony
Stark is able to restore them. And Natasha says “Thank you.”
