Untitled Part 1
She closed the iron door behind her. Another conversation with another patient done.
,, So?" Her boss was standing right there, waiting for her. ,, Any news?"
She sighed. ,, Maybe. She's getting better."
,, Good." The boss, Tony Stark, rubbed his hands together, smiled and said to Johanna to follow him.
They walked through the endless maze of corridors, turning right and left. It was almost impossible for Johanna to remember the directions. Why did one bedlam need so many of them?
,, Miss White, " Tony interrupted her thoughts. ,,I've noticed that your treatment is doing extremely well, congratulations on that by the way, you are the best psychiatrist I've ever known. And I thought that maybe it's all too easy for you." He continued.
,, Thank you...but what do you mean by 'it's all too easy'?" Johanna was a little bit confused.
,, I mean the patients." Tony explained.
Johanna nodded.
,, Their conditions are easy for you to solve. So, like I said before, I was thinking about giving you something harder to work on."
,, Like what?"
,, Like one red case."
He stopped in front of a big iron door with a label on it what said 'Red case: 1BB'. There were two soldiers too. Stark showed them his identity card and introduced Johanna quickly and the guards opened the doors.
There was a big room behind that in what few men stood and one guard too, looking at small screens what showed cameras pictures.
,, How is it going?" The boss asked and one man behind the console said that it was going well.
,, Any news?"
,, No. He doesn't do anything and doesn't eat too."
,, Okay. Show him to us."
The man looked over his shoulder with a knowing that someone else is there too and saw Johanna.
,, Hello, Miss White." Johanna had worked in North America bedlam for only two months but she was already a well-known psychiatrist.
,, Hello."
The man turned back to the screens and pressed one button and Johanna saw something moving in front of one wide wall. Black curtains moved away and revealed a window. Johanna was surprised. Now she saw a black door next to the window too. She bent forward and saw a person sitting on a chair in the room behind the window.
,, Who is he?" She asked.
Tony took one file from the second man's hands and opened it.
,, Bucky Barnes. Also known as the Winter Soldier. A criminal. Most Wanted. A former best friend of Captain America."
,, He's a criminal...Then why is he here, not in the prison?"
,, It's classified. But what do we do know is that he is extremely dangerous and clever. Strong enough to kill everyone in this room and maybe even more. Probably all our soldiers at the same time."
Johanna gulped and looked at the patient.
,, What happened to his hand?" She asked when she saw that he had a metal arm instead of a usual left arm.
,, He fell down on a train what drove above the mountains. The rest of the story is also classified." He gazed at Johanna who was looking at the man, frowning.
,, Look, if you don't want to deal with him, then you don't have to. But if you'll decide to take a shot, you'd bring honor to me, every worker in this building and to yourself. You'd get any kind of job after doing this." He saw that the woman was thinking. ,, So? How's it gonna be?"
Johanna sighed. It was very risky and dangerous. Who knows what this man could do even if he's fastened to that chair. But on the other hand, it wouldn't kill her if she only tries. Or would it?
She sighed before answering. ,, I'm going in."
The boss clapped his hands. ,, Amazing! You are my treasure!" She whispered to Johanna. Then, he turned to the men behind the console. ,, Open the door!"
Men did like he said and Johanna heard a sound of the hard iron door opening. She was nervous. What if something goes wrong?
,, Okay." Tony came back to her and gave her the file with the information about the man. ,,Just for you to know, he is fastened to the electric chair. If he tries to attack you or something, we'll press the button immediately and he'll get an electric shock. He is very tenacious so try to avoid touching him because when you'll get the shock too, you'll probably die. He can't see us from behind that window. We're here, ready to react. Nothing's gonna happen. Do you understand?"
,, Yes."
,, Good."
The door was almost open now and Johanna inhaled for the last time before stepping into the unknown.
She heard the door closing right behind her.
