Everything was a blur after Dooley made his visit to Peggy; He wasn't devastated, sad of course, would have been sadder if she had been working on their side like Kaminski and not on Starks. He wanted her to be quickly sorted out.
Jack kept his distance from the body under the sheet. It was almost hard to believe his co-worker was lying there. The woman who helped save his life in Russia, working against the SSR and they had no leads on…anything now that Howard's butler was in the wind. He obviously had outside help. the house from the agents' reports still had most of the stuff there so he was gone in a hurry.
They had the task to deliver Peggy's body to the morgue as Daniel's punishment for shooting her, even thought was an accident but that wasn't really the point. It would take a few days to contact Carter's family, see if they wanted her body deported back to England for the burial.
"Okay, here we are." Jack said, his eyes lingering on the dark sign near the hospital. The ambulance pulled to a stop and they both jumped out, letting the two Ambulance unload and lead them into the cold daunting building.
"Here's a file, I'll need you to fill in the details." Said an attendance from the reception holding out a file for him.
Jack took it from him and flicked through it till they reached a small area with a couple of metal slabs and along one side of the room were doors to fridges. Jack felt a little ill at the smell around them. He didn't like this place. He filled in what he knew and passed the rest to Daniel who took it with a frown. Once he was done, he handed over as they uncovered the sheet from the body and placed her-it on the slab.
"Okay, Once known as Margret 'Peggy' Carter, cause of death was a shot under her ribs, I would presume extensive bleeding and penetrated organs" One of the attendees read, "Age 27, worked for the SSR."
"Can we go?" Jack asked after
"One moment, we'll need to get contact to her family if she has any for how she should be prepared for burial."
"We're working on finding it. Carter's family is English so it'll take a few days to trace them." Daniel said, doing his best not to look at the body. One of the doctors had cut off her jacket and pushed up her shirt to look at the wound. Jack squirmed a little, looking away.
"Okay, leave us a number for us to get in contact." A nurse said, batting one of the men away, obviously taking point with Carter's body. Daniel quickly handed a number over and crutched his way quickly through the door, the door clanging shut behind them.
"You okay?" Jack asked after a moment.
Daniel gave him a look which he ignored. "Of course not."
"Expected, Chief's least going to let you do more paper work, covering Carter's load till she's been shipped off."
"Can you stop going on about it, I know what I'll be doing."
Jack just raised his hands.
"Alright," he said, "Did the agents find any evidence in Carter's room?"
"Not really, Only a box with pictures of Stark's inventions, hidden but not brilliantly." Daniel said after a moment. "The others figured she tried to get something from her room but can't find any evidence on what since it's missing from the hole in the wall."
"Think someone got to it before she did? She never went into the room but someone else must have." Jack concluded,
"Possibly, but did Carter say anything about a woman possibly involved?"
"She brought it up with the Doctor when she last spoke to him, The Russians were training young girls as weapons, she though one might have deported somewhere here." Jack shrugged, Daniel stopped, almost made him walk into his crutch.
"There was this girl in the Griffith that gave me an off feeling; I saw her waiting a distance from the SSR building, watching the ambulance."
"everyone stares at an ambulance, Sousa."
"She was also trying to get into Carter's room. No one follows an ambulance, Thompson"
"Fine, I'll look into it."
"Also the Doctor giving me the creeps as well, can we keep him away from the windows?"
"You don't trust him too, I'm guessing. You're really are paranoid" He remarked dryly.
"We haven't known him long, Carter was a brilliant actor, who says he isn't." Daniel commented back. Jacked sighed. He had a point, not to mention the doc was also a psychiatrist so he knew body language.
Getting back to the car, he hopped in and waited till Daniel was in too before driving back to the building. He barely noticed as it began to pour down.
"There's going to be a thunder storm tonight."
"Ya think?"
He gave jack another look, fingering his metal crutch. Jack just shook his head a little, knowing what me went.
"Well, have fun tonight; you've got a night shift." Jack commented finally before pulling back to the SSR.
