Ashley Winters was on the Winters Enterprise's private jet. She was traveling to the company headquarters. She had a business meeting with her second in command Jonathan Summers. They were to discuss investing in Kettle Pharmaceuticals, Inc. Ashley had her doubts about the company, their rise to fame was suspicious in her mind. They rose from a small pharmaceutical company on the brink of failure to a major conglomerate that people were claiming to be blessed by God, their first drug was a cure for A.I.D.S.

Ashley spent the flight checking up on Kettle. She was deep into their network hunting down every dirty little secret. She found a file that referenced a special subject but absolutely no other information, which led Ashley to infer that the subject was a meta. She didn't care for all the politics involved, what she did care about was the exploitation of any living being be it animal, human, or meta. The file referenced a unique coordinate system only Kettle used. She began rooting around their systems for their coordinate system. After translating from the unique system to the latitude and longitude.

Ashley informed the pilot to expect some turbulence, they were used to her suddenly jumping out and somehow closing the door behind her. They long since given up trying to figure it out. Ashley jumped out of the plane with her pant suit in the black ops suit's portable bag.
