At first it was quiet, then the screams of children pierced through the air, the sobbing of many, soon joined, the rockets zooming overhead 'rockets? No no...where did rockets come from?' The crumbling of the building he was next to got his attention, "fuck!" He said as he ran towards the falling building "Zemo! Man your station stay pu-" his commander couldn't finish before he was shot by an ultron robot,'There.' Zemo thought seeing the child that looked like his son 'god I hope they are ok..' he thought thinking back to his family, he dodged some falling debris and coaxed the kid out of hiding to come with him, carrying the kid to safety, he turns feeling the ground rumble "what-" he said realizing the ground isn't rumbling, it's moving up.
Zemo cursed, realizing he was stuck with some of the rest of his team, he looks around looking for others when he sees a girl with a type of red magic walking towards robots and ripping them up. 'Strange...' he thought, as a blur of blur passed by him and he stumbled confused, he turned looking for more civilians until he spotted some hiding under a ledge. "Hey hey! You need to get out from under there!" He says voice laced with worry
He was too late, that seems to be a theme for today, always being too late, the ledge fell and killed them right in front of him, he starts to head towards more people when he spots... 'captain America?' He looks confused but then starts to get pushed to a type of carrier, the "avengers" start to lead everyone to the carriers which makes him more confused 'what about the others-' he thought but he gets pushed onto the carrier and next thing he knows is that he's on his way away from Sokovia.

Is been 2 days since the war in Sokovia, and 2 days till Zemo got to see his family, when he finally got to the ground he starts to run to his fathers house, when he gets there he stops dead in his tracks, the middle of the house has caved in leaving wreckage everywhere, Zemo runs into the house looking around "Carl?! Heike?!" He yells looking around until he spots Carl's toy with a hand sticking out from the rubble, he gasps going towards the hand repeating "no-no-no-no please no-" under his breath, picking up the little bear and moving the rubble he sees his sons, his wife's, and his fathers bodies,
He lets out a choked sob and falls to the ground on his knees clutching the bear to his chest, he holds his wife's cold lifeless hand rubbing it slightly "No please..." he says again as he closes his eyes.

Zemo sits up quickly in his bed, sweating as he gasps for air, his hair sticking to his sweaty fore head, he gets up out of bed, since he fell asleep not changing into pajamas last night and still wearing his clothes from yesterday, he goes out his door and into the kitchen to make some cherry blossom tea

I know who you pretend I am.
FanfictionI saw this thing on TikTok on how Zemo cares for Bucky and Sam by giving them snacks and making sure they are fed, and since he lost his kid, why not make a Wattpad about it.
