November, 1963

Freya, as she was known instead of Cassie, was bandaging up her knuckles after a training day with the new Winter Soldier recruits when Alexander Pierce came walking over. He nodded over to the recruits.

"How are they doing?" He asked her.

"Do you want an honest answer?" Her Russian accent was clear after being there for almost 20 years. He nodded. "They are absolutely pathetic. I want to cry when I see them fight."

Pierce laughed. "Only you would say that."

"Was there something you needed Mr Pierce?" She asked as they walked out of the training room.

He nodded again and passed her a file. "President Kennedy has found out about us and he's planning on telling the Supreme Court and exposing us. I need you and James to eliminate him."

"How soon?" Freya asked. She didn't argue, she wasn't allowed.

"You leave tomorrow," He ordered her. "He's in Dallas, Texas. You think any of the new recruits are ready for a mission?"

Freya laughed but there was no emotion. "Definitely not. Especially not if you want to kill the President of the United States in public."

Pierce sighed. "I thought as much."

"Who are we blaming?" Freya questioned, no one could know it was HYDRA.

"Lee Harvey Oswald," He informed her as she sat down in the chair and didn't resist the restraints. "I told James this morning."

"What am I being put in the chair for then?" She asked calmly, accepting the mouth guard.

"So, in case you get captured, which is highly unlikely, you won't be able to tell anyone anything." He simply told her and she nodded.

Both Freya and James' screams could be heard throughout the facility, but no one paid any attention.

John F. Kennedy was dead by 1:00pm on the 22nd of November and Lee Harvey Oswald was arrested for the murder.

Once again, The Warrior and The Winter Soldier had done their job and gotten away. Becoming rumours and whispers in history.

"Well, I have to congratulate you," Pierce said as Freya and the Winter soldier returned. "You've done remarkably well."

President Kennedy had been killed.

"we only did what you told us to do." Freya replied almost robotically.

Pierce looked at the two, almost studying them. Over the past twenty years,it had been Pierce who had been their manager. He had been deciding what mission they went on. He decided what went on in their lives.

To be honest, Freya could never shake the feeling he had been lying bout something. Like she was more than HYDRA's soldier and had another purpose in life.

But that was probably another fever dream to her, to distract Freya from the real problems of her life.

She had a really shit life
