So, English is not my native language. I'm sorry for all the mistakes you could find in here. If you can recommend me a good Beta I will be very grateful. Ok, so basically it's my first long fic in English. It is just an Introduction to a main plot. Don't worry it won't be long. I would be happy to read your revives.

Prologue

Nevermore

"Life isone hugeswamp.Andthen you die.
Yeah, would like to.

Darcy Lewis posted on Twitter."

"LEWIS!"

Darcy Lewis aka Cayenne (Tony Stark's nickname after he discovered that she and Pepper are actually cousins) looked up from the documents laying on her desk to saw the door of her boss office opens with loud THUMPS. There were a few things that could make Director Fury that mad. She quickly checked in her mind everything that may be her fault, but there was nothing. So it leaves, Tony or just particularly The Avengers Initiative.

"Yes, boss? Should I kill Tony after I get to Tower or just let Pepper know to kill him now?"

"It's not Stark!"

"Then what is the problem boss man? "ok, she may be the poli-sci student but for the fuck's sake she never gets the skill of reading humans mind.

She was good in reading faces, behaviors or habits. Sometimes Darcy was sure that Fury, just like Coulson could see what others has in mind. However, she kept those suspicions for herself. More of habit than needed she straighten her suit jacket and looked calmly on her boss. She had changed since the day she was a little intern working with oh so famous Doctor Foster. Her supposed to be "friend" just kicked her out as soon as she got the S.H.I.E.L.D.' scientists, just like Coulson promised to Thor. In a matter of second Darcy was homeless, almost without money. It was then, when S.H.I.E.L.D. got her under their protection. She spent almost year and half on hard training, because Coulson wanted her to be on duty as soon as possible. Now that does not matter.

"Why, and better it will be a damn good reason, you said "no" to take care of The Avengers Initiative?" Fury was pronouncing each word very carefully and clearly, just like he was talking to a child.

So, this was w problem. Darcy just took aside some papers and threw her short dark hair through her arm. She really dislike the idea of making a bun, so she just cut them above her arms and let them fall free. She was not looking as good as Maria Hill or God help, the Black Widow. The girls took one huge calming breath and answered in the same tone. "I don't want to deal with more Foster drama, than I already have boss. I'm tired of it".

"Tell me you are kidding Agent Lewis, because I thought you said that you back off from task that is perfect for you just because you don't want to fail anybody, right?" When he said it like that it really sounds pathetic, Darcy thought. "Please, remind me Agent Lewis, but if I am not mistaken it was you who got to Vienna without my orders and support of the team, to save Barton and Romanoff asses, right?"

"Yes, sir" she mumbled under her nose. She really had to fight with a scowl which crept on her face. She always thought that they never stop reminding it to her. Ok, it was stupid, but she is Darcy Lewis aka Cayenne, permanent idiot, who would sacrifice her own life for the people she like (love was too big word) and getting seriously injured. And here is the place where, she should mention that usually she will get more pain after saving those people. Well, Natasha and Clint just ordered her to never do it again, not so bad, in her opinion. She was just a stupid, impulsive kid and she knows it very well. Pepper always said it was her advantage. Her cousin was more like a sister to her and sometimes Darcy has a feeling that she was blind to her defects.

"So, what we will do is that. You will go to Agent Coulson and tell him that you will handle them. Then you will go to Tower and I will give you a week off to sort you shit out. I don't want to see you until Monday on the debriefing at 10 a.m. Got it Lewis?" oh, now she had to do it, no matter if she like it or not. Great, more time with Tony fucking Stark. Lucky Me! Now she scowled but prepares herself to go, just like she was ordered. Only an idiot would argue with Nick Fury, especially if he had this look on face. "Thank you sir, for your most gracious offer" Darcy spat sarcastically.

"Cayenne! I heard you accepted Coulson's offer!"

That was first words she heard after she went out form elevator. Sometimes, it was almost impossible to believe that Tony was older than she. Darcy just kicked off her heel and went to kitchen where Doctor Banner hand her his green tea. Normally, she would prepare herself a big cup of coffee, but now... "It will be a good day if I don't kill him" she moaned after she sat close to Bruce. "Bad day?" he asked. "Something very similar to it. Don't worry. I will not blow it on you all. Well maybe on Tony and on Clint if I found him" Darcy replied with a sheepish grin on her face. "What did I do and don't remember doing?" asked Barton as he entered the kitchen.

"You did nothing. It was Fury, Coulson and Tony. I just need someone to spar with. Figured out that you would want to. Natasha out, so it's not like a can call her and ask." She replied coming to man to hug him. She just can't help how she feels about him. Clint was... was a drug to her. However, she doesn't like to mess their friendship so she just keep it cool.

"Ok, spill girl. What big bad black do to you?"

"You remember the day I told you and Tash that they want me to be a babysitter to you all?"

"Yeah. I even had a scar"

"Yep. So I declined the offer, but Fury made me change my mind"

"Poor little Darcy" she threw her cup on Tony without looking in his direction. It was not like she was complaining. She really likes most of them. Well, it was hard not to like for example Steve, with his sweet smile and attitude toward ladies. It was just the fact that she will have to make contact with Eric and Jane... Darcy wanted to forget about everything that connected with those two. She now has a new family. NO! She just gets over her issues and she will not allow her memories to destroy what she had now. "You know Tony... I can now order you around" she smiles at the look on his face.

That was priceless. Bruce and Clint stared laughing as well, and even Pepper, who came not a minute ago, join them. Sometimes, she and Tony was so similar... it was scary. "Well, I figured out that I can be an Avengers' babysitter, but I should Phil about pay rise because of Tony".

They were laughing again when Steve joined them. As long as Darcy knows him, and believes her it was not so long, he never was so happy. Instantly, they looked at him and waited. "Guys, I wanted you to meet someone" he beamed.

From behind his back stepped a dark haired man. Darcy was quite sure she saw his face somewhere. Well, stop being an Agent, Lewis, she reprimanded herself. He was a nice piece of man. Maybe as handsome as Barton, but he was still somehow covered in shadows. It reminded her about Tasha a little.

"Let me introduce you all to old friend of mine. Sergeant James 'Bucky' Barnes. Those are The Avengers Initiatives"

Oh fuck! She was already in one fuck out love with not available man, it seems so karma was a bigger bitch than Darcy thought. Because right in front of her, was standing the man she fell in love in Vienna. Please, just kill me, she thought.
