Faint music filled your ears as your eyes peaked open carefully. You sat in a hospital bed, taking in your surroundings and noting the two men beside your bed, both focused on their own reading.

"On your left." You smile to Steve and Sam, looking as happy and relief filled smiles take over their faces.

"Y/n, oh my god. Never do that again" Steve sat up quickly, moving to be by your side in an instant.

"I can't make any promises Steve, that's what you get for leaving me in 1944" you scold jokingly as he just laughs with relief for one of his friends.

"You get used to it." Steve tells him with a shrug.

"We've been data-mining HYDRA's files. Looks like a lot of rats didn't go down with the ship. I'm headed to Europe tonight, wanted to ask if you'd come." The former boss offered.

"I'm counting on it. That thing you asked for, I called in a few favors from Kiev." She hands you a file.  "Will you do me a favor? Call that teacher." Nat asked you with a smile.

"I think I've got some more important stuff to deal with first" you tell her, looking down to the file and then to your bag set on the ground next to your feet.

"Be careful, you two, you might not want to pull on that thread." She walks away with a wave.

"You're going after him?" Sam asked, looking over your shoulder to the winter soldier file in your slightly shaky hands.
