Nick Fury muttered as he watched the Avengers gather around the table. All eyes were on the brunette girl behind him. She stood with her arms crossed, looking out the window at the open sky surrounding them. She was dressed rather plainly, in dark jeans and a white T-shirt, but the German bomber jacket she wore was what really caught their eye, as well as the dog tags around her neck. The woman turned her blazing green eyes on the group as Fury cleared his throat. She dropped her arms to her sides and stepped up beside him.
"Everyone, this is Nicole Wolf, the newest Avenger. She goes by Admiral Deutsch, and she's much like our Captain over there." That seemed to intrigue the man, making him turn his gaze back on her as Fury continued. "Because of this I'm making her your partner Captain."
Steve arched an eyebrow. "Not to be disrespectful sir, but how is she 'much like' me?"
Nicole pulled a small disk out of her pocket, hitting the center and surprising everyone when it grew into a large shield, colored like the German flag with an Iron Cross in the center. She put it on her left arm, hooking it into place.
"I'm like jou because I vas part of an experiment to recreate zhe serum used on jou. I'm zhe only survivor of zhe project." Everyone seemed surprised at her heavy German accent. "Ich bin starke so lebe ich, I am strong so I live. Jou, Herr Rogers, are zhe only person alive who can teach mich how to handle myself now, seeing as how jou've done so vell over zhe years."
"How did you even get into the project... Fraulein Wolf?"
"Suicide attempt. I'm an orphan so vhen I vas taken to zhe hospital after I tried to drown myself no one came to claim me. After a few days zhey turned me over to zhe program." She shrugged. "I vas zhe fourth und I vas zhe last."
He narrowed his eyes at her. "So why was Germany trying to recreate the serum?"
"For jour government. Zhey vanted to recreate it, so zhey took a blood sample from jou. Deutschland has zhe best chemists, so zhey sent it to zhem. However, in order to understand it zhey had to test it on human subjects. I vas ein chosen to be a test, und it vas vith mich zat zhey ended it, finding zhat it vas too dangerous for any human or government to have."
Fury nodded. "That's when they contacted us."
Steve sighed. "So I have to teach her to control herself?"
Nicole snorted. "Nein! Jou have to teach mich how to control zhe strength zhe serum granted mich."
"Joy..." he got to his feet and walked over, seeming more than a little hesitant to approach the German. "Then we better get started, Fraulein."
"Gut, zhe sooner zhe better." She narrowed her eyes. "Vhere should ve go?"
"The training room."
