We're more alike than you think

19. Surprise

Zemo grabbed your hand and almost lifted you away as he ran down the opposite street from the boys. You cursed to yourself, it was too late for you to turn back. "Zemo, let go off my hand!" you yelled at him in annoyance as you ran right beside you, but he didn't listen. Two men on motorbikes came driving up the other street as Zemo quickly pushed you very harshly up against the wall.

"What is this? The classic 'kissing in public makes people uncomfortable' techniques? You can't be seri.."

"Just shut up!" He yelled before his lips crashed against yours. He took both your hands above your head. His lips were not gentle, but it felt so good. He took charge of the situation, and you could just follow his orders. You let yourself fall into his tricks and started to move your lips with his, feeling how good the two of you were for each other, but the same second you started to enjoy it, he moved his way millimeters away from you with a little smirk on his face

"So the little bird can surrender" he said and tilted his head.

You looked at him shocked for a second. Did he just test you? Did you just get played by a little Sokovian mass murder? You couldn't help yourself from acting like a teenage girl when you just kicked him in his gentle parts and pushed him away. "Let's find the boys." You said with a harsh tone, looking down at Zemo who was groaning in pain. You started to run down the same street you came from and their direction, Zemo knew better than to run away and followed you step by step. You found the boys the same second two other men in front of you were pointing their guns at them, but before you could do anything somebody shot the two men from above.

"You seem to have a guardian angel" Zemo said and walked towards them. Your eyes were up on the window it came from and you tighten your grip on your knife as you walked towards the boys. "You good?" Sam asked worried, but before you could answer somebody came up from behind you.

"Drop it Y/N and Zemo. Drop it now!" the female voice yelled at you. The voice felt familiar, but it's been years and you couldn't really believe it... to be her. You leaned down slowly, put down the knife and held your hands up so she could clearly see you didn't have anything else up your sleeve, not that it would matter. If it was who you thought it was, the person would be afraid of your powers.

"Sharon?" James asked shocked. You cursed to yourself as you and Zemo turned around so you could face her properly.

Sharon came to Madripoor 8 years ago, she never told you why or how she ended up here. You always just guessed she was one of the many special agents going rouge out here. She was clueless when she first came here and you helped her establish herself. She had seen you in full action, so she should really know better than to point a simple gun at us. She pointed it towards Zemo.

"You cost me everything," she said bitterly. You looked a bit confused over at Zemo before you got the connection. The 'Sharon' they talked about on the flight, stealing caps shield must have been her, and that would be why she came here only months after the split. She now pointed the gun at you.

"And how could you sink this deep y/n, do you have any idea what this man have done?" Sharon said. Now all eyes were at you, guess you had some explanation to do later. You so badly wanted to just melt the pistol in her hand but you knew better. You tilted your head to the side with a little smile on your lips

"Guys would you mind telling her?" you asked with a frustrated tone. They snapped back when they heard you speak.

"Sharon, wait. Y/n is working with us, she worked with us for the past 7 years. Someone has recreated the Super Soldier serum and Zemo had a lead." Sam said carefully walking towards her. Sharon looked sceptical over at you

"Since when did the Avengers start taking in criminals?" you couldn't help but want to punch the woman. Zemo and Sam looked at you without finding words, and for the first time on this mission you kinda wished that James could speak up for you.

"Let's see, Black Widow started out pretty bad, than you have Hawkeye who went on a killer spree under the blip than back to the avengers, Ant-Man is convicted, and this man right behind me, James, who you seem to know, well he was one of the, dare I say, the best assassin in the world for decades, so really, I would argue that it's more comm..."

"Shut up Y/n!" Sharon interrupted you. James looked at you disappointed and stepped up beside you. "This isn't helping your care you know" he said with a weak smile before he looked over at Sharon.

"What are you doing here?" he asked Sharon and he was disappointed with you? You rolled your eyes at him before looking over at Sharon. "James, she lives here" you swallowed low and gave her time to answer herself.

"I stole Steve's shield, remember? I also took the wings for your ass, so that you could save him from him." she said pointing the gun between Sam and James, but you knew better than to take your hands down. "I didn't have the avengers to back me up. So I'm off the grid in Madripoor." she said before putting down the gun.

"Don't blow smoke. I was on the run, too." Sam said.

"Was. Is .Big difference. I don't speak to my family anymore. I can't. My father doesn't know where I am." Sharon said. You couldn't help but feel bad for her. The few times you and Sharon had gotten personal, she often talked about her father. They had always been close, and she struggled with it, especially in the start.

"Listen.. Sharon, we need your help. Please" James begged her kindly, but Sharon seemed to not have it. She laughed low and looked at the four of you a bit unsure.

"I owe y/n one, but this isn't over." she said and looked at you. You smiled weakly thankful at her, letting your hands down slowly before she took down the gun as well. The boys should really now be thankful that you had helped Sharon into this criminal lifestyle.

"I have a place in High Town. You'll be safe there." Sharon followed up and started to walk towards the car.

The boys look back at you shocked, but you were too tired to explain stuff right now on the spot.

"Surprise" you said with a big smile while waving your hands.
