Barton's Twin Sister

Chapter 12- Eye Spy

May and I were sitting in the cockpit when Coulson walked in and leaned over the back of my chair.

"Maybe I should learn to fly. It's not too late, right? I could learn. What do you like best the freedom? The view?" Coulson asked

"The solitude." May said

"Got it. See you in Sweden." He said before leaving. May and I looked at each other and rolled our eyes before focusing back on the sky before us.

When we landed Sweden May, Skye, Coulson, and I left for the train station

"Yesterday, 25 men, all military, were hired by one of the largest gem brokers in the world. They dressed the men in identical outfits, gave each one a randomly assigned briefcase, and sent them along 25 different routes here in Stockholm. No one knew which briefcase contained the

diamonds, but they were still stolen." Coulson explained to us.

"Tack." Coulson told one of the guards before we entered the train. (Thanks)

"Why the Kabuki theater?" May asked.

"They were afraid because somebody's targeting diamonds an armored car in Milan, a safe in Monte Carlo, and now this over $30 mil total. Each theft occurred despite heavy security." Coulson explained as I said by the to making sure to to get blood in my fur.

"They sound like inside jobs." May said.

"A lot of people share that opinion." Coulson said

"You don't." Skye observed, "CCTV cameras catch any of the action?"

"Fitz-Simmons is checking. The system went dark for an hour. They think it was hacked." Coulson said.

"It was the same thieves each time?" May asked

"Yes, but it was just one thief -a woman.- And she did it all with her eyes closed." coulson said

"Eyewitnesses I.D. her?" may asked

"Black, athletic build, late 20s, early 30s." Coulson responded

"So, you asked how she could have cracked the system .I have a pitch, but it's way outside the box." Skye said.

"I live outside the box." Coulson said

"There are people in the world with superpowers, right? What if this woman has ESP or something?" Skye said

"There are no credible studies that support precognition, - telepathy, or extrasensory perception." May shot her idea down.

"Okay, so science says "no". But this woman knew impossible things.And why did she close her eyes? That's either random or totally important.Was she listening or was she reading minds? I'm gonna go play with my phone now." Skye said after got two hard looks from Coulson and May.

"Why does H.Q.want us to investigate these heists?" May asked.

"They don't.I picked this op." Coulson explained. "Any luck?"

"Yep, I'm getting full bars, which means if I was down here and 25 guys were in scary red masks,

you know what I would do? Instagram." Skye said showing us her phone.

"It's amazing. Every year, this part of our job gets easier.Between Facebook, Instagram, and Flickr, -people are surveilling themselves." Coulson said. Once we got back to the bus we went up to Coulson's office to search thru the photos from the men from social media.
