"She calls herself Rapture. No doubt she has a real name....but it has been so long since she used it, that on occasion even she can't remember what it is. Not that it matters. Not here....not now." -Malcolm Colcord, Director of Weapon X Recruited into SHIELD by Agent Brent Jackson the woman known only as Rapture had the perfect moral ambiguity to be an effective assassin.
