Soft hands, a mother's hands
Laughter
A man and women, smiling

Soft grass
Echoing music
Loud

Vibrant
Soft

Haunting

Screeching

Screams

Running, feet cut
Bloodied knuckles

Escape

Pain
Again

Again

Again
Crying

Escape
Pain
Again

Shots
A party
People, drunk, loud

A mission

A man, up too close, keys jangling by his waist
And then stops the jangling

Silence

Reward
No

Pain
Screams

Shouts

Robyn jerked awake in a cold sweat, to Bucky gently shaking her arm, and he immediately leaned in as he saw her wide eyes.

"You Okay?"

"Yeah, uh, bad dream. You?" She pulled her self up to sitting, relaxing into his side.

Robyn felt him flinch slightly.

"Nothing new."

They sat like that for a few minutes, before Bucky rolled out of bed, kissed her briefly on the nose, and peered out into the corridor.

"I'm going to go find a doctor. One should have come round by now." Bucky darted off down the corridor, leaving Robyn to turn to the clock.

3:47 Am

Seven hours since they'd fallen asleep.

She tried to shift herself into a more comfortable position, but a shard of agony piercing her wounded shoulder left her stunned for a minute.

Damn

Robyn twisted her head down, trying to look at her shoulder. she pulled back the stiff, disgusting blue of the hospital gown, and peered at the bandages.
Then peered again.

Unlike her previous assumption, the bandages didn't seem to be covering a bullet wound. Robyn raised her other hand, trying to get a look at the wound. And that was when she felt the half healed burn line around her neck, about a millimeter wide, either side of her color bone.

Feeling with her fingers, she found it didn't make its way all around her neck, simply trailing off past her ears. She carried on tracing with her fingers, feeling where she couldn't see. The trailing burns slipped under the bandages, and she let out a yelp as she touched the centre spot.

And then she realized.

"BUCKY!!!"

He came racing in, a nurse at his heels, to find Robyn staring at her hands. She looked up as he entered.

"You Okay?! I thought..."

"Where is my USB. Don't think about lying. Where is my usb stick?. I can see the burns. I know I had it before to fight. I know I had it during the fight. I had it on a metal chain." Robyn paused, trying to piece together her haywire thoughts.
