Danneel Carter saw Director Fury staying near his fake grave, talking to Sam Wilson and Steve Rogers about something what seemed really important for the three of them. Natasha approached them and handed some papers to Captain America. The woman smiled and winked at Rogers, and Cap opened the folder and carefully examined the files. Fury turned around and left for parts unknown for his interlocutors. Right towards the car, where somebody was already waiting for him.
"Agent Carter! A nice day for homecoming, isn't it? I'm glad you agreed to talk," - Nick extended his hand for a handshake, and the blonde squeezed it with her slender fingers.
"You know, director. Whatever happens, you can always rely on me. I'm sorry, but I do not quite understand how I can help with this. Even though I worked for S.H.I.E.L.D for the last three years, and before that, I had been trained by Black Widow herself ... My assignments were always of a different kind."
"I will give you a fill-in when I know for sure we're all alone here. Are you sure there are no insects in the car?" the girl nodded, "I hope you didn't tell your sister about our little encounter?"
"Sharon is safer this way. Despite she's used to my being away. It's not necessary for her to know everything about my life" Carter started the car, "it's time to fill me in on the details of your plan"
The director of S.H.I.E.L.D. looked puzzled. He cast a frustrated look at the agent who had been working for him for three years. He remembered her polite and quiet, and her demanding tone surprised him immensely. The man sniffed and began:
"Your Mission is James Barnes, better known as the Winter Soldier."
"Wait a minute… Did you say the Winter Soldier? But I thought it was just a fairytale. We used to frighten the newbies, but… wow… just WOW... the Winter Soldier himself ? Is he even real?
"Do not interrupt me, please. Your mission here is to look after him, so that the remaining agents of HYDRA could not find him. That's no as simple as it seems. The first thing you need to know is that Barnes is a cruel and cold-blooded killer who will go to any length. And second, Steven Rogers will be looking for him ..."
"So why not put Barnes under his care?"
Fury looked at Carter the way she immediately realized it was time for her to shut up.
"I'm sorry."
"We can't let Rogers or HYDRA find the Soldier. Besides, you must ensure the former S.H.I.E.L.D. agents do not find him either. I have some plans for him, - it was the turn of the girl to cast puzzled glances at Fury, "don't look at me like that. I can not tell you about them, otherwise I will have to kill you," he chuckled "The only thing you need to know for sure is that he must remain unnoticed, and most important – alive. And stay above the radar."
The blonde nodded and smiled. She wanted to know what plans Fury could have for the Winter Soldier.
"Barnes laid low Bucharest," Agent Carter frowned, "some of my guys didn't stop spying on him even for a second after his "disappearance". I have to admit, he's a good spy, but we are better. He nearly managed to pull a con game on my agents a couple of times, but they tracked him. However, now my people can no longer continue monitoring him. Barnes saw them. That's why we need you. Black Widow is too famous after all those stories with the Avengers and her speeches at that press conference. And Barnes himself has seen her more than once. Your new apartment is ready for you. Your flight's tonight. Hope you have everything packed."
The girl nodded again.
"Now turn left. Are your belongings here?"
"Yes. I hope everything is settled? I mean… my legend."
"You wound me, Agent Carter. Your new identity… Danneel Grayson," The blonde frowned again. Fury pulled a folder out of the inside pocket of his coat - a passport, a brief biography of Miss Grayson, plane tickets and a file on James Buchanan Barnes, "now you are Grayson. You are twenty-three, you work as a nurse in a hospital in Bucharest. Koltea Hospital. Are you ready?
"As usual. Director, about Sharon... she can't know… Otherwise, she will do her best to stop me. Besides, Steve will immediately learn everything."
"Sure. You should adopt a prudent approach. Everything has to remain between you and me. Right now you are the only one I can rely on. Be careful. I couldn't forgive myself if one of my best agents was harmed let alone falling victim to the Winter Soldier."
