Sharon

Sam answers the phone. "Hello?"

A female voice comes through, "Hey, um, we need to talk about this situation. It's been driving me nuts."

"What situation exactly are you talking about?" Sam asks.

"Are you high? You know what situation, it's the only situation me and you have." She says.

"What situation Sarah? Say it." Sam insists.

"The damn boat. And watch your tone. Okay? I let you slide at the bank." Sarah says.

Sam scoffs, "The bank. Yeah. Laundered so much" he chuckles, "Yeah, they'll come around. "

"If that was the case then why'd they dog you out. Big time?" Sarah asks.

"Yeah, you're damn right in big time. You'll see when I have that banker killed."

"Cass! What'd I tell you about the cherrios? I don't have time for this! Sam; I'm sorry. I'll call you back." Sarah says.

"Sam?" Selby asks. "Who's Sam? Kill them!" Selby commands.

A gunshot shatters the glass and hits Shelby, killing her instantly. We go into action taking a guard out each.

"They're gonna pin this on us." Sam says.

Zemo sighs, he sounds more annoyed than concerned. "We have a real problem now so leave your weapons and follow my lead."

We walk quickly through the streets as phones chime all around us.

"This is not good." Zemo says.

"No shit." I say.

A man open fires on us and I do my best to block as much as I can with my wings but I feel one clip my side and I grunt in pain.

"I can't run in these heels!" Sam yells.

"Women can do it so can you!" I yell back.

We get cornered in an alley by a group of motorcycles when a sniper takes them out.

"You seem to have a guardian angel." Zemo says walking up to us.

"Well this is too perfect." A female calls out.

Sharon emerges from the shadows, "Drop it, Zemo."

He drops it.

"Sharon?" Bucky asks.

She keeps her gun trained on Zemo, "you cost me everything."

"Sharon wait." Sam says holding a hand out. "Someone recreated the super soldier drum and Zemo had a lead."

Sharon rolls her eyes, "Well that explains why you guys are here. And Selbys dead."

"So what are you doing here?" Bucky asks.

"I stole Steve's shield remember? I also took the wings for your ass, so you could save his ass, from his ass." Sharon gestures between the three of them. "Unlike you I didn't have the avengers to back me up so I'm off the grid in Madripoor."

"He don't blow that smoke at me I was in the run too." Sam cuts back.

"Was. Is. Big difference. I don't speak to my family anymore. I can't. My own father doesn't know where I am." Sharon says.

"Listen. Sharon we need your help." Bucky starts.

Sharon laughs.

"Please." Bucky says.

Sharon sighs, "This isn't over. I have a place in high town. You'll be safe there for a while."

We all follow Sharon back to her place.

"Looks like breaking all those laws is treating you well." Sam comments.

"At some point I thought if I had to hustle, might as well enjoy the life of a real hustler. You know how much I can get for a real Monet?" Sharon explains.

"Easy, deactivate your hustle mode. You sell fake Monets." Sam comments.

"No. She means real. This gallery is specialized in stolen artwork. Monet. Van Gogh. Classics." Zemo explains.

"It's true. You know, half the artwork in museums like the Louvre is fake. Real stuff sits in places like this." Bucky tells Sam who immediately pulls out his phone.

"Okay guys, I see what you're doing. You're more worldly than good old Sam." Sam says.

"Yeah. What's google say?" Bucky asks patting him on the shoulder.

"No shit." Sam mutters.

"Come on you guys need to change. I'm hosting clients in an hour." Sharon commands.
