SIBERIA, 1986
Harsh winds blew through the freezing corridors of the facility, biting at the skin of the men who had gathered in the central room. They grumbled and complained as they waited, rubbing their arms to bring some heat back into their limbs before they lost all feeling.
To Valcov, it was an amusing sight; Each one of them were powerful men, running countries and businesses which controlled the world. Spectacular men. Grand men. Yet they were being brought to their knees by a simple chill, like any mortal. He was certain, no matter the circumstances, that when he stood among the most powerful, he would never submit to such minor hardships. No, he was an extraordinary man, with an extraordinary gift, one that would secure both HYDRA's and his own place in the world.
"Gentlemen." Valcov stepped forward, gazing down upon them from the railings above. "I'm pleased you could join us here for such a momentous occasion."
"Another failed experiment, you mean?" snapped one of them, glaring up at the scientist, who simply chuckled.
"I think you will be surprised by what you see here today, Chairman. After all, it has never been seen before." Valcov folded his hands behind his back, letting a smirk grace his lips. "For as long as I can remember, I have admired and idolised the tales of Mythology. The Gods, the monsters, the battles. The Gods ruled with an iron fist, stamping down chaos should it arise. However, my favourite of all was the Greek Goddess of war; Enyo brought cities toppling to the ground, she slaughtered anyone who would dare challenge her. She had the streets flooding with her enemies blood. She was merciless and unstoppable.
"Gentlemen, HYDRA is engaged in a ongoing battle against the chaos of the world, and we are losing. When our only answer to the world is the Winter Soldier, who breeds chaos rather than eliminating it, we do not win. We simply slip further towards our indefinite demise, and I cannot sit back and let that happen. For almost fifty years, this facility has been working to create HYDRA's answer to world order. And we have succeeded. We've been creating our very own Enyo, and she's ready to fulfil her mission."
Valcov watched with thrill as the men glanced between each other, looks of suspicion, doubt, and hints of fear filling their expressions as they watched several guards lead a young girl into the protected cell before them, and secure her into a metal chair as they prepared her for something. Looks of horror took over their expressions as they realised that this girl looked barely into her teen years. She was petite, with scars marring her black skin. Her hair was matted and unkempt. She looked utterly terrified.
"Valcov! What is the meaning of this? Are you out of your mind?"
"You see, the serum you used to create the Winter Soldier was functional, it performed its purpose. But it didn't fulfil our own. We need something more than a soldier, we need a monster. So I give you one."
"This is a child!"
"Precisely." A cruel smile pulled at Valcov's lips. "Sokolov! Lets begin."
A small, ratty sort of man nodded excitedly from behind him as he turned up the dials on the control board, earning blood-curdling screams from the girl. She struggled against her restraints, tugging harshly and thrashing in a pathetic attempt to break free.
"Альфа. кровь. пуля."
As Valcov spoke those words, the girls struggling became much more erratic. Hot tears poured down her cheeks and she bit down hard on her mouth guard. The metal of the chair creaked loudly as she pulled hard against it before letting out another wave of screams as the bouts of electricity flowed through her body.
"VALCOV! END THIS!"
Valcov could hear nothing but the piercing screams of his most prized possession, his eyes gleaming with glee and pride as he watched his work come to fruition before him. "волк. Огонь. черный."
The men let out frightened yells as the ground began to tremble while the lights flickered above them, but their eyes were on neither. Instead, they were focused on the girl, whose hair, once pure white, was now flaming red and floating around her head like a halo. They watched with bated breath as the girl ripped herself from her restraints, the metal breaking like a twig as she launched it against the glass, causing a crack.
"Enyo."
The girl suddenly became very still. She stayed silent, her eyes opening to reveal eyes like pools of blood. She blinked, seemingly coming into reality, before they locked onto the group of men who stared back at her. With a nod from Valcov, Sokolov turned down the dials.
"Ready to comply." The girl hissed. Her voice sent shivers down spines, it was cold and unnatural.
"As you can see, she is fully functional. She is strong, if not stronger than your soldier. Her abilities are unparalleled. And she will follow any command." Valcov chuckled as they all seemed frozen in both surprise and fear. "Now, I must admit, I did not call you here to just show you my great work. I'm afraid the real reason is a little more embarrassing than that.
"You see, for years, I have been mocked and ridiculed for my ideas. You claimed I was a mad man. That I was delusional and psychotic. I wonder whether I am those things now, when my true vision stands before you. I am a smart man, Gentlemen, and I knew you would not be happy with just this display only, so I thought you should see first hand what Enyo can do."
Without warning, the door to Enyo's cell lifted, giving her entry into the central room. The men moved back, shouting to contain her. "Kill them all."
The men watched in horror as the girl hunched over, the cracking of bones echoing around the room before her form exploded into that of a wolf. Valcov smiled, watching as it snarled and stalked towards the men before it began its slaughter. The screams were like music to his ears, and he was sure his wolf would not fail him.
"Sokolov!" he called, still watching the attack below.
"Yes, Sir?"
"Tell the guards to prepare her things. I want you to inform her of her next mission."
"Of course, Sir...And- and what is her mission?"
Valcov remained silent, his eyes gleaming as he watched the blood begin to pool around the bodies Enyo left in her wake. "Send her to Chernobyl. Tell her to blow up the Power Plant."
A/N: Hello Readers! So this a reviewed, and better planned version of a story I put up a few weeks ago, so if it seems similar, that's why. This will be an ongoing series and will follow the entire MCU right up to Avengers 4 (lol sobs). So, I hope you enjoy it! I would love to hear your feedback!
