Chad, Africa
2007
The revolution had been going steady for two weeks. The ragtag farmers and nomads that had started the rebellion soon grew to have pirates and mercenaries. The tyrannical government was shaken. They were not expecting fierce resistance.
The citizens of Chad were sick of hypocrisy. They were being lied to and they knew it. One day, some farmers and tribesmen gathered together and decided it had to end.
They started with the capital, N'djamena. One of the farmers that was leading the band found a willing warrior in a single girl, he found wandering the fields. Her skin was white as snow, in stark contrast to her fellow rebels. They never knew her name, but they knew what she was made of.
She proved herself after an IED exploded, nearly killing some of them. She dragged bodies out of the fire, ordering the survivors to do their best to help. She was resolute and refused to give up. Plus her knowledge of weapons and strategy was invaluable.
They pushed to the capital, easily overthrowing the government. The girl, now named the Iron Lady, helped write a constitution and set up a democratic republic.
Then the truck came. The Iron Lady seemed to know something about it. She demanded everyone leave the building and she went down to the street. The truck doors opened.
The dust cleared, and standing there was the Winter Soldier.
The Winter Soldier was here in Chad, putting down a revolt made up of farmers and a lost girl. The Iron Lady smirked underneath her mask. Dust coated her khaki uniform. She pulled up the rifle to aim. She fired, shooting the truck, a mere four inches to the side of his right shoulder.
The truck exploded. A single bullet reduced it to ashes.
The Winter Soldier was flung several feet. The Iron Lady leapt at the opportunity. She kicked the gun out of his hand. His muzzle had fallen off his face, and he stood now. He pulled a knife out. The Iron Lady was not bothered.
"You're the same color as a cloud," She said, commenting on his pale complexion. He only grunted.
She managed to pluck the knife out of his hands and cast it away. They both moved fast, blocking and punching. He slammed her into a glass window. She didn't have time to recover and he grabbed her by the throat.
The Iron Lady lived up to her name, and punched him hard in the abdomen, hitting right below the lungs. He heaved, letting her go, and scramble away. The Winter Soldier growled, and pulled another knife from his belt.
She ran, vaulted herself off the wall, and wrapped her legs around his neck. The pair tumbled to the ground. He stood up first, but she came shortly after. She had gotten the knife in the exchange.
Rather than use the knife, however, she took a small disk from her pocket and threw it. It sent an electric shock through the air, and the Winter Soldier fell to the ground. She gasped, rubbing her throat. It was time to leave.
