We're shoved into the back of a van and I groan really really regretting ever saying yes to these stupid people who hadn't even gotten very far before they had gotten us caught.
"Cora." They look to me hoping I could get us out of this but when I go to speak my voice is hoarse and it hurts so much like I had two pieces of sandpaper rubbing against each other in my throat. Bucky had crushed my windpipe rendering me useless.
I try again only to be sent into an intense coughing fit which prompts Steve to rub my back. "It's ok, take it easy." He says as I gasp feeling like I may possibly die. I groan and lean on him hoping that my accelerated healing kicks in because not being able to talk sucked.
The rest of the ride is silent Steve staring at the ground as Natasha holds her shoulder wound and Sam just looks deep in thought.
"It was him." Steve breaks the silence making us look over at him as he continues to stare at the ground. "He looked right at me like he didn't even know me."
"How's that even possible? It was like seventy years ago."
"Zola. Bucky's whole unit was captured in '43, Zola experimented on him. Whatever he did helped Bucky survive the fall. They must have found him and..." Steve looks completely heartbroken.
"None of that's your fault, Steve." Natasha tells him, "Even when I had nothing, I had Bucky." I was understanding how he felt and so I hesitated but placed my hand over his. I felt him glance at me but I kept my face straight ahead.
"We need to get a doctor here. We don't put pressure on that wound she's gonna bleed out here in the truck." Sam says after glancing at Natasha when suddenly one of the guards pulls out an electric rod and neutralizes the other guard and knocks him out, the guard is revealed to be agent Hill,
"Ah. That thing was squeezing my brain." She says referring to the helmet that she had just taken off. Sam looks at her in confusion. "Who's this guy?" She asks before her eyes land on me. "You got Odair? What were you thinking?" I let out a scoff of offence still unable to speak. I wasn't that bad.
Well maybe I was but still.

"GSW. She's lost at least a pint." Maria says to a doctor as we enter a secret facility that she has brought us to. "Maybe two."
"Let me take her." The doctor says but Maria stops him.
"She'll want to see him first."
"About damn time." It's Nick fury laying injured in a hospital bed. "Who in the hell thought bringing princess coral was a good idea." My eyes narrow at him hating that he used my birth name. "Your name is coral." Sam snickers under his breath making me huff and then turn to punch him.

"Lacerated spinal column, cracked sternum, shattered collarbone, perforated liver, one hell of a headache." Nick is telling us as we wait around his bed and the doctor is treating Natasha.
