5. Files

(Very short chapter another person in the POV no Frankie abuse or sadness in this one. Its quick and set in CATWS) 

While Natasha sat her shoulder being pressed by the doctor to the side of her. She had learned that Fury was alive Hill knew. She felt betrayed and hurt. Her straight red hair fell over her now bandaged shoulder, sitting her brown leather jacket covered her wounded shoulder. 

"This man declined the Nobel Peace Prize. He said, "Peace wasn't an achievement, it was a responsibility." See, it's stuff like this that gives me trust issues." He pointed at a picture of Alexander Pierce.

"We have to stop the launch." The red head spoke turning her head towards Fury who sat on his chair his arm in a sling and Agent Hill sat right by his side. 

"I don't think the Council's accepting my calls anymore." Fury says with sarcasm as he pulled out a box. Opening it and revealing three chips.

"What's that?" The black haired man behind her inquired.

"Once the Helicarriers reach three thousand feet, they'll triangulate with Insight satellites becoming fully weaponized. But that's not the only weapon HYDRA has at there hands." Maria spoke as she opened a file with one under that Maria didn't show. 

"They call him The Winter Soldier. Super soldier, you guys met him at the bridge. James Barnes" The super soldier in front of her shifted. Natasha eye brow cocked up,

"What's the file under that?" The assassin questioned the deputy director. 

"Another weapon HYDRA made" The one eyed man said bitterly and dismissively. Natasha passed the file to Sam who stood behind her knowing the file would be to much for Steve. She looked at the ravenette for the file, Maria passed it and Natasha opened it. Pictures of a blonde child holding a gun, knives, her skin seemed to have metal on it. She looked way to young to be in this business, let alone to have a HYDRA emblem burned on the back of her neck. 

"Who she?" The red head spoke concerned for the small child. 

"Can we get to the task at hand. They aren't gonna send a kid up there, we all haven't seen her for months." Fury spoke trying to redirect to the task at hand. Natasha felt disappointed that 

"We need to breach those carriers and replace their targeting blades with our own." The man spoke once more less aggravated. 

"One or two won't cut it. We need to link all three carriers for this to work, because if even one of those ships remains operational a whole lot of people are gonna die." The directors right hand woman spoke. 

"We have to assume everyone aboard those carriers is HYDRA. We need to get pass them, insert the server blades, and maybe, just maybe, we can salvage what's left..." Steve stood up he wasn't going to let the same mistake happen again.

"We're not salvaging anything. We're not just taking down the carriers, Nick, we're taking down SHIELD." Steve stood his ground glaring daggers into the eye patched man.

"SHIELD had nothing to do with it." Fury argued back, 

"You gave me this mission, this is how it ends. SHIELD's been compromised, you said so yourself. HYDRA grew right under your nose and nobody noticed." Fury wasn't going down with out a fight. 

"Why do you think we're meeting in this cave? I noticed." The director spoke his tone coming back agitated. 

"And how many paid the price before you did?" Steve fought back.

"Look, I didn't know about Barnes. Not till this file re-surfaced after you shit-heads got caught" Fury let out a harder sigh. 

"Even if you had known before, would you have told me? Or would you have compartmentalized that too? SHIELD, HYDRA, it all goes." Steve let out the last words, a long silence fell over the four. 

"He's right." Maria looked around the room, from Natasha, to Sam, to Steve, then back to Fury. Fury looked at Sam for help knowing he wasnt going to get through the red head.

"Don't look at me. I do what he does, just slower." Sam shot back shrugging. 

"Well... Looks like you're giving the orders now, Captain." Fury sighed letting him do his thing now. 

As they waited for the right time to go Natasha stared at the kids file, Frankie Zimmerman, born January 20th 2000, damn a 14 year old. Blurry photos of the young blonde. Shit she needed to see this kid.
