"Sharon, wait. Someone recreated the super-soldier serum and Zemo had a lead." Sam blocks her shot at the criminal."That explains why you guys are here. And Selby's dead."
"So what are you doing here?" Bucky asked, stepping in front of you protectively to prevent the woman's shot at you if she missed her target.
"I stole Steve's shield, remember? I also took the wings for your ass, so that you could save his ass from his ass. Unlike you, I didn't have the Avengers to back me up. So I'm off the grid in Madripoor." She argues. "And it looks like you got away perfectly fine" she looks to you from behind Bucky.
"Hey, don't blow that smoke at me. We were on the run, too." Sam steps in to defend you both.
"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 tells you.
"Listen Sharon, we need your help." You tell her as she laughs in your face.
"Please?" Bucky helps you to convince her.
"This isn't over." She sighs, lowing her weapon. "I have a place in High Town, you'll be safe there for a while." She starts walking off as you look to each other. Sam pushes Zemo ahead of him as you all follow behind Sharon.
"Looks like breaking all those laws is treating you well." Sam comments as you walk through a gallery.
"At some point, I thought if I had to hustle, I might as well enjoy the life of a real hustler. You know how much I'll get for a real Monet?" Sharon leads you upstairs.
"Easy, deactivate your hustle mode, you sell fake Monets." Sam observes.
" No. She means real. This gallery is specialized in stolen artwork, Monet, Van Gogh, Classics." Zemo speaks up.
"It's true." Bucky steps in.
"You know, half the artwork in museums like the Louvre is fake. Real stuff sits in places like this." You tell them.
"Okay, guys, I see what you're doing. You're more worldly than good old Sam." Sam shouts out.
"Yeah. What's Google say?" Bucky walks past as Sam pulls out his phone.
"No shit." Sam looks to him.
"Come on. You guys need to change and you need to tend to that." Sharon nods to your side where you have realized that you bleed through the dress because of your wound opening up again. "I'm hosting clients in an hour." Sharon called back as you kept walking, groaning at the annoyance of your wound.
"Great"
"This will suit you much better" Sharon hands you a comfortable, yet stylish outfit that you can fight in if necessary. "Oh and I'll bring the first aid kit into the next room." She tells you, walking out.
