Authoress Note: Welcome to Chapter 41 of The Winter Soldier and the Luna Wolf. I want to thank everyone for the reviews. It really does mean a lot to me that you guys are enjoying this story. I am hoping that everyone is still enjoying it. I know that there isn't a lot of Bucky in it right now, but I promise you that there will be more Bucky. It's just going to take time to have him back into the story. And our main gal Violet is going to be against the whole thing of being able to know Bucky is around. I hope that everyone will enjoy this next chapter. Without further ado Chapter 41. ENJOY!
Chapter 41
Violet got up to her feet and moved towards the scanner. She looked at her hand for a moment and put her thumb print onto the scanner. It lit up green, opening the door. "After you."
"Impressive." Vers said with a surprised look.
"How do you have a higher clearance than I do?"
"Remember who hired you, Fury." Violet said with a wink.
They walked out of the room and towards the elevator.
"I just thought that I would have higher clearance."
"It takes time, Fury. Perhaps as you work up the line through Shield." Violet said, offering him a smile.
Fury let out a small huff as they got onboard the elevator.
Violet pressed the button in the elevator to head to the records. She took a soft breath leaning against the wall. So far this was a long enough day and there was no time for her to have a cigarette that she usually had during the day. She deemed this more important than wanting one.
They got off the elevator and headed towards the record room.
A cat walked up to the three of them
"Hey, there. How are you?" Fury said, leaning down to pet the cat.
Violet let out a soft chuckle. She had to admit that the cat was cute.
"Oh my goodness. Look at you. Just look at you. Aren't you the cutest little thing." He said picking up the cat.
Violet looked over seeing that Vers was on her way to the records room.
"Aren't you cute? And what's your name, huh? What's your name? "Goose", cool name for a cool cat."
"Fury."
Fury turns with Goose in his hands.
Vers nodded to the door.
"I'll be back." He said walking away from Goose and stood next to Vers.
Violet pressed her finger against the pad letting out a breath. The door slid open. "Here we go."
They walked into the room as lights turned on row by row.
Vers looked through the boxes and found the one that she needed. "Huh. Lawson." She pulled out two boxes and handed one to Fury and then placed the second one onto the floor and removed files. "Ha. Lawson's plan for the light-speed engine. I wonder why they terminated the project."
"Um, maybe because she's cuckoo." Fury said, showing her a page from a notebook.
"Kree glyphs?"
"Hmm?"
"Lawson is not cuckoo. She's Kree."
"Well, she's dead."
"What?"
"She crashed the ASIS aircraft during an unauthorized test flight. Took a pilot down with her. That's why security here's so unfriendly. They're covering up a billion dollar mistake. Oh, and your light-speed engine is toast." He showed her a black and white photograph of the crash.
Violet pursed her lips together. "I remember that. But forgot who was involved… I would have given information if I knew who it was."
"When did this crash happen?"
"Six years ago. 1989." Violet said with a simple shrug of her shoulders.
"Who was the pilot?"
"Um, most of this thing's redacted but there is a testimonial here from a Maria Rambeau. Last person to see them both alive." Violet said, looking at Vers. "Mm-hmm."
Fury looked at his pager. "Back in a minute."
Violet watched Fury walking away, her brow raising slightly. Something was off with him and she wanted to find out about it but she couldn't leave Vers alone.
