Chapter 8

(Y/N) slowly came back into consciousness. The darkness surrounded her and she felt numb, like she was floating in a void. (Y/N) could hear muffled voices getting louder, and felt her body begin to wake up, though she didn't want to. The more she tried to fall back asleep, the more her body began to wake up. It was like it wanted her to get up. A dull aching in her head reappeared, though she couldn't remember why.

Her whole body ached, and she felt like she had a whole week of sleep to catch up on. She tried to move her limbs, but found that she couldn't. (Y/N) tried this again, but on a smaller scale, she wriggled her fingers, attempting to move. To (Y/N)'s delight, her fingers moved, just slightly. She moved her whole hand, only a fraction of an inch, but a fraction of an inch nonetheless. (Y/N) then made the mistake fo trying to move her head. A sharp pain shot through her whole body, and the girl fell back defeated and in pain.

"Why would you throw her into a wall? I don't understand, what part of you though that (Y/N) could take being thrown into the wall by a super solider?" A voice called out exasperatedly.

"I thought she had super strength?" The voice said defensively, though it came out more like a question more than anything. The volume of the voices hurt her head so she winced a little.

"Just because someone is enhanced doesn't mean that they have super-strength!" The voice argued. What ever the other person was going to say next was cut off by a third voice that sounded vaguely like Tony. (Y/N) heard the sound of beeping. "Her heart rate just increased." The sound of someone rushing round the side of a table filled the room, and suddenly, a bright light shone into (Y/N)'s face.

"Casper?" Tony said gently. (Y/N) winced a little, and peeked her eyes open. She was met with three pairs of eyes looking straight back at her. She flinched a little, sinking lower into the bed.

"Woah, woah, woah calm down, it's just us." Tony said carefully. (Y/N) looked at the other two pairs of eyes hovering over her.

"(Y/N) I'm really sorry I didn't realise how hard it threw you" Steve blurted out, leaning closer to her. Bucky tore his gaze away from (Y/N) and looked up to glare at Steve. Really? He thought. "Nice one," He said sarcastically.

After (Y/N) had fainted, Bucky had rushed over, catching her in his arms before she hit the floor, Wanda close behind to see if she was alright. When (Y/N) fainted, Bucky was cursing Sam for not letting him intervene before hand. 

He had been filled with this sense of dread when he had seen her collapse that he didn't quite understand. After she fainted, Steve's magical restraints had disappeared so he too collapsed into a heap on the floor. It was like all the energy had been taken out of him.

(Y/N) lifted an arm to cover the light shining into her face. "Five feet at all times Captain." She said her voice raspy. Steve immediately jumped back in compliance. She sat up in her bed, looking around. She assumed she was in the medical ward. Multiple beds lined the lab like room. "How long was I out for?" She questioned.

"Roughly 3 hours." Tony said casually.

"How come?" (Y/N) asked, never having passed out for more than a few seconds at a time.

"Well it's not everyday your'e flung into the wall by Captain America." He chuckled in response. Steve received another glare from Bucky.

"My head hurts" (Y/N) stated before swinging her legs over the side of the bed and standing up.

"Hey, take it easy, I'm pretty sure you broke a rib" Tony said, trying to push her back onto the bed, (Y/N) batted his hands away and ignored him.

"Nothing I can't handle." She said, beginning to walk over to the elevator.
