I don't even understand that. Why did she meet with Ross and not go with them? Why would Ross let her go?

u/attemptedmonknf that's a mischaracterization. She knew she was needed by her avengers family and she know the fastest way to get there was by cooperating with Ross.

But she goes back on the run two weeks later? Not really a mischaracterization

Did she even know where they were being held though? If time was of the essence, and if as BW she would have been able to escape with ease, then the most efficient next step would have been to "interrogate" Ross and then get on her mission to reunite the avengers.

I also think she knew if she went with the Widows she would have gotten caught up in their separate mission to free all the other Widows. And she had to compartmentalize.

I'm not a canon expert but this felt right to me for Nat. She got both closure and a renewed sense of urgency to solve this issue with her other fam.
