Summary: BLIND DATE: A meeting by an intelligence officer with an agent at the time and place of the agent’s choosing. These are potentially dangerous, as the officer could be set up for capture or an attempt be made to “turn” him/her.
Coulson walks into the abandoned warehouse, which is a bit cliché, after checking all the exits and alley ways for the possibility of an ambush. Barton’s also stationed on a nearby roof, making sure the conversation goes down as expected and no surprises occur. He stands in the middle of the open plan main floor, waiting.
“I didn’t expect you to come,” a female voice says from behind him. He carefully turns around to face her.
“Barton assured me you were no threat,” Coulson says, looking at her. She has on a deep blue gown, her red hair glowing like a flame in the sunlight.
She chuckles. “The Black Widow is always a threat. Barton’s a fool.”
“He has his moments,” Coulson agrees. “You wanted to ask me something?”
“Barton said that you could recruit me,” she walks slowly forward. Coulson keeps track of her movements.
“What asset could you be to SHIELD? You’ve taken out many of our agents. Why the change of heart?”
“I’ve come to realise I have red in my ledger, and you could help me to make it right.”
“You have to talk to Director Fury. What’s your real name?”
She pauses. “Natalia Alianovna Romanova.”
