        Steve and I walked in and went to the vending machine. When we got there it was gone, Steve looked around. And then I saw Nat. I pointed at her, she was chewing some gum. Steve went to her quickly and pulled her into another room. "Where is it?" Steve demanded. 

        "Safe." Natasha said. 

          "Tell me." Steve said. 

        "Where'd you get it?" Natasha asked. 

         "Why should I tell you?" Steve asked. 

         Natasha gave him a look, I sighed. "Fury and gave it to us. Oh and Clint says hi." I said.

         "Why? What is it? Wait what?" Natasha asked.

         "We don't know." I said, Natasha looked at me closely. "It's not a lie." I said. 

         "Did you know that Fury hired pirates?" Steve asked. 

        "Makes sense. Ship was illegal, Fury willing to go and do likewise." Natasha said. 

        Steve glared at her and grabbed the USB, then he went to leave. "I know who killed him Fury." Natasha said, Steve stopped so she continued. "Most intelligence agencies don't believe he even exists. Whoever believes in him calls him the Winter Soldier." She said.

        My blood froze, so it is him. "He's credited with over two dozen murders in the last 50 years." Natasha said. 

        "So it's a myth." Steve said. 

         "Five years ago I escorted out of the Iran nuclear engineer. Someone slashed the tires near Odessa. I lost control and fell off a cliff. I pulled both of us out. But Winter Warrior was there. I stood in front of the engineer,  so he shot right through me. A Soviet bullet. No markings. No streaks. Bye bye to bikinis." Natasha said.

        "Yeah, I bet that you look horrible in them." Steve said. 

         "Do we go look for him?" I asked.

        Nat shook her head. "I wouldn't, I know, I tried. Like you said, it's a myth.

         "So what do we do?" I asked.

        Steve held up the USB drive. "We figure out what this is."

        Natasha, Steve and I were walking in the mall towards the Mac store. Steve was trying to discreetly look around. I just held his hand and looked at him while I was walking so that I could look around. I look like a clingy girlfriend.. "First rule when on the run, walk don't run. Don't look like you're looking at people." Natasha said. 

        "I can't run in these shoes." Steve said. 

          We arrived at the store. Natasha went to a computer and pulled up some things. "As soon as I plug in the drive SHIELD will know where we are." Natasha said. 

        "How much time do we have?" Steve asked. 

          "About nine minutes from...now." Natasha said plugging it in. 

         I looked over her shoulder. "Fury was right about the ship. Someone was trying to hide something. The drive is protected by an artificial intelligence. It's continueingto rewrite to neutralize Nat's orders." I said. 

        "Whoever created this thing is smarter than me." Natasha said, then she looked at me. I shrugged, I can't really hack anything modern...
